I can conceive it possible that the Eastern divines might on their side, in any recognition of the third of these propositions, find the means of materially facilitating the accession 01 the West. In the sum of these propositions consists my second and last observation.

I have been tempted to offer this, which I call an exterior view of the question, frcm my firm confidence in your wisdom, and my profound sympathy with what 1 believe to he your general purpose from my conviction that the Eastern Church enjoys a felicity in being free from committal to any false principle of action and from my apprehension lest your plan should fail on the Eastern side, not from any real discrepancy on the truths meant to be expressed, but from want in that flexibility of concsptiovw and expressions which is thoroughly compatible with identical belief, and which the historical circumstances of the East, imposing the necessity of a rigid attitude, have not been well. adapted to develop.

The following is an extract from a letter of the special correspondent of the Times with the Prince of Wales, dated October 26 There is a reat deal of uneasiness and some stronger feeling at Cairo and Alexandria, I learned from those I spoke to, lest Egypt should be treated as a mere dependency of Turkey in case of the Sick Man's immediate dissolution, lire idea that Ermit is, or is likely to be, insolvent was strenuously repudiated but it was admitted that the depreciation of her securities, and the embarrassments caused by the Turkish collapse, were very mischievous.

18, Midnight. The Prince of Wales, accompanied by the Duke of Sutherland, Sir Bartle Frere, Lord Suffield, Major-General Probyn, and Messrs. Henderson, FitzGeorge, and Knollys, landed from the Serapis at three o'clock this afternoon, and was met by Mr. Sourer and an escort of the 3rd Hussars. The Royal party drove to visit Sir Jamsetjee Icicebhoy.

His Royal Highness presented Sir Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy with a medal and a handsome copy of Flaxman's compositions, and afterwards visited Aga Khan and presented him with a medal and a copy of Rousselet's India and its Native Princes." He paid a visit to Lady Sassoon, at Sans Souci, and remained a quarter of an hour. The Prince then lunched' and returned to the Serapis, where he entertained a private party at dinner. His Royal Highness presented Mr. Souter with a handsome scarf-pin, expressing extreme satisfaction at the police arrangements during his stay in liombay. He started for Baroda at nine o'clock this evening, where he will witness and take part in various sports and hunting expeditions, and is expected to return here on Tuesday next.

Baeoda, Nov. 19. The Prince of Wales, accompanied by the members "of his suite, arrived here this morning under a royal salute from tile Enrfish and the Gaikwar's guns. The youthful Gaikwar, accompanied by Sir Madaveris and the British Resident, received his Royal Highness at the railway station, where a strong detachment of British troops was drawn up. The Prince, on leaving the station, mounted a gorgeously caparisoned painted elephant with a howdah of solid gold which the Gaikwar and Sir Madaveris took their seats with his Royal Highness.

A grand procession of elephants was then formed, the route to the Residency beino- kept by native Baroda troops, and tastefully decorated with triumphal irches Loyal mottoes were everywhere conspicuous. The whole pageant was of a most gorgeous and picturesque character. The people greeted his Royal Highness with every mark of cordiality and respect. the Prince will return the Gaikwar's visit this afternoon, and will afterwards witness an elephant fight. This evening his Royal Highness will dme with the officers of the 9th Native Infantry.

According to present arrangements the Prince will leave here next Tuesday, the intervening days being emploved in shooting. Plis Royal Highness is in excellent health, and appears highly gratified with his reception here to-day. The Lancet savs As we ventured to state, the projected tour of the Prince of Wales in India would be a purely provisional one, subject to any -Iterations that might be rendered necessary by the state of health ot the inhabitants of any given district which the Prince might have to traverse By the latest telegrams it would appear that his Royal Highness visit to Madras has been abandoned on account of the prevalence of cholera in that presidency. The telegrams that have reached this country have already informed us as to the health and doings of the Prince up to very recent dates, and anticipated news that would come by letters. We are to learn, however, that the health of his Royal Highness durmg the passage to India continued excellent, even in the hottest part of the Red Sea, and when the ship was in a calm.

Notwithstanding that the air the cabins was 03 deg. to 84 dec and laden with moisture, and the sea water was as hot, or nearly so as the air, all on board the Serapis were in good health, the Prince apparently the strongest of the party and thoroughly enjoying the voyage. As soon as the Serapis began to meet the southerly wind, which blew strongly through the Straits of Babel-Mandeb, the thermometer commenced to fall, and from havin reached as high as 86 deg. in the cabins, with six to seven degrees of evaporation, it fell to' 79 deg- and 80 deg. and became lower still on passing the MR.

The Hour states that the late Greek Archbishop, Alexander I ycurgos, having received one day only before his death a detailed memorandum irom the Kieht Hon W. E.

A LETTER FROM COUNT ARNIM.

Count Arnim has addressed the following letter to the Times: The Time of the nth of November contained an article giving an account of a recent publication issued at Zurich some days ago. Wishing to rectify immediately some important errors which I meet in the aforesaid article, I canno, vrait for the author's having read himself the brochure he talks about. In conse-ciuence I bee to state in the most solemn way I. Never since I have teen cal.eit to the Paris Embassy had I any conversation with her Majesty the Empress on matters either religious or political. Never has her Majesty given me tac order-to address her any letter or other communication.

I never wrote to her she never condescended to write tome. 1 never had any opportunity of giving her Majesty any infoimation, directly or indirectly. There has not been the slightest exchange of ideas about any uueshon'which could possibly be the subject oi any conversation whatever, public in Pihale audience. 1 am perfectly ignorant of the facts, real or imaginary, in which Prince Bis-roarck may have drawn the conviction which made him say vbu he said to me about this subject. 2.

I never forwarded to his Majesty the Emperor -rd Kin" my autuist master, any report, letter, or information by any other cttanncl than the'Voreicrn Office. The illegal influence, contrary to the Constitution the hmpirc awl obnoxious to its interests, which the Chancellor complains o. in. his 'despatch of the 19th of lime, 1S73, has never Never have I rm-osu' knowingly the politics of the Chancellor. Those who tried and try still m.

viii'i to spread the calumnies which I contradict here in the most formal way are perhaps not conscious of their all but criminal levity. They do not shrink from putting Ly n-me to-ether with the name of her Majesty, and in order to accuse, me they insult he'r 'in accusin." ir.e of exercising an influence contrary to the Constitution and the vclWeof the empire they have the audacity to outrage the dignity of tne Sovereign, vhose consent was necessary when really would have had that influence about which the chancellor complains. His Imperial Majesty may disdain 1.1 his wisdom to notice these r-sh and reckless assertions. Perhaps even the scorn of the Sovereign ought to be 'uiT cicn't to shelter his subject, but if I were to let them pass in silence they would be trarsfo, mod into legends, never to he questioned hereaiter; and I should lay myseif optn 10 the reproach of having glorified myself by an intimacy which never existed, and by an influence which 1 never had anil never wish to acquire.
