Our London Catholic contemporaries seem, if not precisely tofavor the rule of Turkey in the Danubian Provinces, at least to prefer it to that of Greek schismatics totally unrestrained. It appears that the barbarities reported of the Turks have been much exaggerated, and it is at any rate worthy of note that the Mahomedans, engaged in warfare and provoked to take reprisals, have not after all by so very much exceeded the brutality shown in cold blood towards their Polish victims by the Russo-Greeks. For our own part we do not like Turkey, but we abhor Russia.
