Excerpt from Speeches on Questions of Public Policy, Vol. 2 of 2

We know that Austria and Prussia had an interest in the matter more direct and ter than had either France or England. 0 Austria and Prussia it is a vital matter - a matter of existence - because, if Russia were either to appropriate any large portion of the Turkish territory, or even to reduce Turkey to the condition of a mere depend ent State, it must be manifest to any man who casts a glance over the map of Europe, and who looks at the geographical position of these two Powers with regard to Russia and Turkey, that any considerable acces sion of power on the part of Russia in that quarter must be fatal to the independence of action of both Austria and Prussia.'
