Quebec, 13lh August 1849.\t1-I2m Extracts from late English Papers.The Despatch or the Emperor of Russia ON TUB COURSE OF ENGLAND WITH HECARD TO Greece,\u2014Although we ate not yet in potseoionof a textural copy of the note recently delivered to the British Government, by command of the Emperor of Russia, with reference to the operationa of the Uritiah fleet upon the coast of Greece, we are enabled confidently to lay before the public the whole substance and the moat important expressions of that momentous communication.A despatch of more deep concern to the peace of Europe, to tlie dignity of this country, and to the relations of Great Dritain with all foreign States, has seldom been received by an Engliah Minister, or one, we must unhappily add, more unanswearable in its arguments, more just in its principle*, more cutting in its reproaches.This despatch, which is addressed by Count Nesselrode to Haron Urunow, it dated (he I9ih of Feb., and was simultaneously received in London and in Paris on the 2d of March.It begins by expressing (he astonishment and the deeply painful impression caused to the Emperor of Russia by the violent and unexpected actions of the Urilish squadron in Greece.These action* are then more minutely retraced.The English fleet had jusl left the Dardanelles, after having compromised the peace of Europe by entering within those Straits, it sails at once to the coasts of Greece roughly to disturb the secutity of a small State by measures the most alarming for the peace uf the East, as if there were not already\u2019 sufficient elements of distur* oance in the West, and as if the British fleet was to carry from shore to shore the dread of the germ of political convulsions.Such a proceeding on the part of the Urilish Government evinces a total want of consideration lowatils the two other Powers which arc, like itself, proiedors of Greece.The kingdom of Greece is in a peculiar situation ; it does not subsist like other Stales by its own force alone.It was founded and it has been sustained since 1827 by tlie three Powers.Russia and France ought, therefore, to have been informed of the intention of the Urilish Government to pursue by force the satisfaction of these claims.They would have employed their good offices to obtain from Greece what\" England had a right to expect.And, indeed, from what is now known of these claim*, they ate of very small importance, and wholly out of yrDportion with the display of menaces and force which has been put forth in support of them.With reference to the two islets of Savirnza and Cetvi, England had in no case the right to claim them on her sole authority and wiihout acquainting the other protecting Power* of her design.Tho
