P Division of Turlie- The following abstract of the secret corres pondence between the Emperorof Russia and the British Government relative to the parti tion of Turkey we extract from the Philadel phia Ledger: ; ' ' . One of the most remarkable and interesting revelations made in reference to the affairs a the East, isPthat contained in the secret cor respondence between the Emperor of Russia and the Government of Great Britain, relative to the affairs of the East, the position of Tur key, its probable dissolution, and its partition between. Russia and Great -Britain. In 1844, it appears thatCount Nesselrode drew up a memorandum j- laying down the, principles which should govern Great Britain and Rus sia in their conduct towards Turkey, They were to maintain the independence of that country, and her existing territorial possessions; and not to allow the Forte to plav on the dif ferent States of Europe against one other, but to maintain, as far as possible, the unanimity of the representatives of the 'foreign powers, without assuming the character ot exclusive ascendency: Por nearly ten years these prin ciples were observed, but in January, 1853, the Czar intimated to Sir Q Hi Seymour his conviction that Turkey was on the verge of rum, and it was very, important that England and Russia should come to a perfectly good understanding on these affairs, -and that nei ther shoultl take any decisive step of which the other is not apprized. Turkey, according to the Czar, was "a sick-man a - very sick man," and it would be a greati misfortune to Europe if he were to slip off without disposing properly of his effects, as his dear friends de sired, j "We cannot says the Czar, "resusci tate what is dead. If the Turkish! Empire falls, it falls to rise no more. And I put it to you, therefore, whether it is not better to be provided beforehand for a contingency, than to incur the chaosf confusion and the certain ty of a European war, all of which must at tend the catastrophe if it should occur unex pectedly, and before some ulterior system has been sketched. v f i ThefBritish Minister suggested that a "great disinclination might be expected in England to disposing by anticipation of an old friend and ally." ' The Emperor admitted this might be so, but said frankly, that if England thinks of ever establishing herself at Constantinople, he . would not allow it. lie was equally dis posed to enter into an engagement not to es tablish himself there as "proprietor," but if everything were left to chance, circumstances miht compel him to "occupy" Constantino ple. He must keep his word as a sovereign, and protect the Greek Church but negotia tion would probably be : sufficient to do so. These facts being communicated to Lord John Russell, the latter suggested that an agree ment beforehand, made with a view td Tur key's dissolution, would probably hasten it. Austria and France could not, in fairness, be kept in ignorance of the transaction, nor would such concealment be ' consistent with the end of preventing a European war. A conflict would arise from the very means taken to pre vent it: for neither England nor France nor probably Austria, would be content to see Con stantinople permanently, in the hands of Rus- Si a. .ja Uie pari.oi vrreau uuuiu, net jjjaiea- v's Government declared that they renounced all intention or wish to hold Constantinople. He would also give an assurance that Great Britain will enter.into no agreement to. pro vide for the contingency of the fall of Turkey, without previous communication with the hm- peror ot nussia. . . u.,. ? , - February 21, tne-Jkmperor again upuKo w Sir G.

'In the event of the dis solution of the Ottoman Empire, he 'thought iv iuiuu .uv less uimcuit io j arrive at a satis factory territorial arrangement than was com monly believed. "The principalities are,1, he said, "in fact an indeoendent State, under mv protection; this migbt so continue. ; Servia ' might receive the same form of government. So again with Bulgaria. There seems to bo no reason why this province should not form an independent State. As. to Egypt, I quite understand the importance to England of that territoryL I can then only say, that if, in the : evnt ot distribution of the Ottomaii succesT sion upon the fall of the Empire," you should take' possession of Egypt, I shall have no ob- jecuons to oner. 1 would say the same thing of Candia; that Island might suit yon, and I do not know why it should not becomaVan English possession." ; i " : These disclosures were replied to by Lord. Ularendonj who said that th British Govern ment would adhere to the principles' in Lord' John Russell's despatch; .that England wanted no territorial aggrandizement, aud could riot be a party to a previous arrangement from I which she was to derive no benefit. Ko se-: cret understanding could be had which cCuldj be kept secret.: - This would be the signal fori preparation for intrigues of every description,! and for revolts among the Christian subjects i of the Porte. Each power and each partr. wuuiu eiiueavor io secure us iuiure.,mterests.i and the dissolution of the Turkish empire would be preceded by a state of anarchy which! must, aggravate every.; difficulty, if it did. not render a peaceful solution of the question im-j possible. Tle Emperor, subsequently to the; reception ot this despatch,' said that he felt; tne two courts clearly understood. each other,1 and that there, was nothing he relied so confi dently upon as the "w.ord of a gentleman"- He was disposed to act upon this system, with tho cloar understanding, however, tbat the same rule of conduct shall bo observed, without distinction, and unanimously, by eadi of the great Powers and that none of them shall take advantage of the weakness of thq; Fort to obtain from it concessions which might turn to the-prejudicef'of the others. At' the very moment he was giving these, assurances,! I the Emperor was paving the way for violating! nis prom if es, by seeking a pretext lor wari when,' instead: of prolonging the existence 'of the "sick mau," his life was to be cut shortj and Constantinople would b in the hands of tneuzar. .
