The following are copies of the correspondence and notes recently exchanged between the British and Ana trian Governments on the Eastern question :-- Tai EARL OF CLARENDON TO THE EARL OF WESTMORELAND. Foreign-ottico. July 2,1851. My Lord,--I have to acknowledge the receipt, this day, of your lordship's telegraphic despatch, by which her Ma jesty's Governinent learn that Prussia has declined to at tend the conference which Count Buol proposed to sum mon for the purpose of communicating the answer .to the demands addressed by Austria to the Cabinet of tt,Peters burg, and that it will in consequence be transmitted_ by Count Buol to Count Colloredo for the information of her Majesty's Government. Her Majesty's Government, however, being already in possession of this answer, and having taken it into mature consideration, I shall no longer delay communicating to your lordship the views which they entertain with respect to it. It is unnecessary to dwell at any length upon the argu ments by which Count Nesselrode endeavours to throw upon the Western Powers the responsibility of the war which Russia alone has provoked. Count Nesselrode ob jects to the form of the summons addressed to Russia by England and France, and maintains that this' summons, rendered imperative by the acts of Russia, was the true cause of war ; but he takes no account of the long series of negotiations during the past year, nor of the repeated warnings which were given to Russia by France and England, and he chooses to forget that it was the inva sion of the Principalities by Russian troops which first disturbed the peace of Europe, and which has rendered abortive every effort for its restoration. The despatch of Count ttuol to Count Esterhazy, to which Count Nesselrode's despatch is an answer, points out clearly upon whom the responsibility falls of the present state of things ; and in the protocol of the 9th of April the Four Powers have solemnly recorded their opinion that the summons addressed to Russia by England and France was founded in justice. The opinion of Europe has been pronounced in favour of the course pursued by England and France, and it is . needless, therefore, that they should defend themselves against the accusations of Russia. I proceed to examine the other points contained in the Russian answer. In the first place, if the demands of Austria, supported by Prus sia, are considered in a purely German sense, it is impos sible that the answer of the Russian Cabinet can be con sidered satisfactory by the two German Powers. The main points put forward iu Count Buds despatch to Count Esterhazy were :- 1. The necessity of a speedy evacuation of the Danubian principalities. 2. The impossibilities of making this evacuation, re quired by the essential interests of Gei many, dependent upon conditions which it was out of the power of Austria to insure. Bat Russia fixes no limit whatever to the occupation of the principalities ; and she looks upon an armistice as a previous condition, sine qua non, o f th e w ithd rawa l o f h er armies beyond the Pruth. The injury, then, which in the opinion of Austria and Prussia, the Russian occupation inflicts upon the Germanic Confederation continues unabated; nay, more, it is aggra vated by the refusal of Russia to attend to the just de mands of the two German Powers. Count Nesselrode professes, it is true, to adhere t o th e principles laid down in th e p ro t oco l of the 9th of April; but this declaration is worth little as long as the Russian troops remain on Turkish soil. In fact, the evacuation of the principalities is essential to the integrity of the Ottoman empire, and their occupa tion is in itself a flagrant breach of the public law of Europe. The crisis which disturbs the peace of the world had its origin in the passage of the Pruth; and it is impossible to admit the pretensions of Russia to make the repaiation which she owes for an act universally condemned, depen dent upon the exigencies of a position which she has volun tarily created for herself. Nor can England and France consent to an armistice upon the vague assurances given by Count Nesselrode, of the pacific disposition of the Russian Government. After making such great efforts and sacrifices, and engaged as they are in a cause so just, the allied Powers will not stop in their course without the certainty that they will not again be called upon, after a short interval, to recommence the war. The particular conditions of peace must depend upon too many contingencies for it to be possible to lay them down definitively at the present moment. Her Ma jesty's Government have, however, no hesitation in stating the guarantees which, in their opinion, and in that of the Freuch Government, are essential to secure the tranquility of Europe from futare disturbances. These guarantees are naturally suggested by the dangers to guard against which they are required. Thus Russia has taken advantage of the exclusive right which she had acquired by treaty, to watch over the rela tions of Wallachia and Moldavia with the suzerain Power, to enter those provinces as if they were part of her own territory. Again, the privileged frontier of Russia in the Black Sea has enabled her to establish in those waters a naval power which, in the absence of any counterbalancing force, is a standing menace t o th e Ottoman empire. The uncontrolled possession by Russia` of the principal mouth of the Danube has created obstacles to the naviga tion of that great river which seriously affect the general commerce of Europe. Finally, the stipulations of the treaty of Kutschuk lisinardji, relative to the protection of the Christians, have become, by a wrongful interpretation, the principal cause of the present struggle. Upon all these points the status quo aide tellunt must undergo important modifications. Her Majesty's Government cannot doubt that the Aus trian Government will admit that these views are in ac cordance with the principles laid down in the protocol of April 9 ; and that it would be eifficult to restrict within more moderate bounds the inquiry which by that protocol the Four Powers engaged themselves to make in common, as to the means hest calculated to maintain the Ottoman empire, by attaching it to the general balance of Europe. But it is remarkable that to this passage in the protocol of the 9th of April—the only passage of capital importance, implying, as it sloes, the necessity of a European revision ,of the ancient relations of Russia with Turkey—Count Nesselrode carefully avoids making the slightest allusion. In fact, the profession of the Russian Cabinet that it adheres to the principles laid down by the Conference at Vienna, contains nothing which is of a satisfactory nature. Her Majesty's Government are at a loss to understand the meaning of Count Nesselrode's declaration, that the integrity of the Ottoman empire will not be menaced by I Russia so long as that integrity is respected by the Powers who now occupt the territory and waters of the Sultan. What comparison can be drawn between the invaders and the defenders of the Turkish territory ? What analogy can exist between the presence of the allied troops at the invitation of the Porte, under the authority of a diplo matic convention, and the forcible invasion of the Ottoman territory by the Russian armies It is unnecessary to say anything further as to the con ditions which are attached by Russia to the evacuation of the Principalities; and I come now to that paragraph in Count Nesselrode's despatch which relates to the situation of the Christian subjects of the Sultan. It amounts to nothing less than this, that the Russian Cabinet includes among the ancient privileges which are to be preserved to the Greek church the entire rights which flow from the protectorate, civil as well as religious, claimed by Russia ; but it cannot for a moment be supposed that the system establiahed by such a protectorate, even if it were based upon a European guarantee, could be compati ble with the independence and sovereign rights of the Porte. Her Majesty's Government is very far from saying that Europe can be indifferent to the amelioration of the condi tion of the Christians in Turkey ; on the contrary, they think that Europe ought to take an active interest in the welfare of the Rayah population, and ought to come to an understanding as to the best mode of taking advantage of the generous intentions of the Sultan towards his Christian subjects ; but at the same time they are firmly convinced that the reforms which are needed in the government of the various Christian communities in the Ottoman empire can only be effectually and beneficially carried out by the Porte taking the initiative with regard to them, and that if such reforms are to be promoted by any foreign influence, it can only be by means of friendly counsel and advice, and not by, an interference grounded upon treaty engagements into which no State could enter without abdicating its indepen dence. lo fine, it appears to her Majesty's Government that the respective situations of the different Powers are in no way whatever changed; they aro only more clearly marked out by the answer of the Russian Cabinet. England and France roust therefore continue in the attitude of belligerents on the other hand, as the Principalities have not been eva cuated. Austria and Prussia will, no doubt, consider that the obligations of the treaty of the 20th April, strengthened, so far as Austria is concerned, by he seperate engagement with the Porte, subiist in all their force, and that now the time has arrived for their fulfilment. I have thus fully explained to you the views of her Ma jesty's Government, which aro entirely shared by the Go vernment of the Emperor of the French, with whom her Majesty's Government have been in communication upon this subject; and I have to instru A your lordship to deliver a copy of this despatch to Count Buol.

The undersigned, &c. fluor,. THE FALL OF THE LYNN WORKHOUSE. CORONER'S INQUEST. RING'S LYNN, Monday Evening.—Yesterday, sub. sequent to the departure of the despatch, the body of Andrews, the clock maker, was found in the ruins, quite dead, and, singularly enough, completely entangled among the wires of the clock. It is now known that no other lives were sacrificed, and a feeling of thankfulness prevails through the town that the sacrifice of life was no greater-, as, had the a cc id en t occurre d one h our and a half later —at dinner time—the loss of life must have been horrible, the great dining-hall being at the bottom of that part of the building which fell. We stated yes. terday that the great tower dated as far back as the fourteenth century ; it appears, however, to have beeu erected two centuries earlier, so that it is no wonder the beams and woodwork were decayed. This morning Mr. Wilson, borough coroner, held an inquest upon the bodies of Andrews and the pauper Cana, Mr. H. Edwards, solicitor, watching proceedings upon the part of the relatives of Mr. Andrews, and Mr, Belbo on the part of the board of guardians. The first witness examined was The Rev. J. Bransby, chairman of the board of guar dians, who sail—My attention was first drawn to the state of the building three months ago. A committee was appointed to deliver a written opinion to the board upon its state. I requested them to furnish the board separately with a written account. On the 23,1, in the board-room, Mr. Bennett gave me the document I pro duce. The paper was lying in the boardroom until last Saturday : "King's Lnn U, June 23, 1.8i4. I have ex am i ne d the butt y resses on nion the west front of the union-houses. I au] of opinion the arches which sup- port the octagon tower are giving way and spreading, by which the west front wall is gradually being forced out wards. The giving way o f th e arc h es i s, I think, caused partly by a natund decay of the building, and principally by the decay of the beams of the floors •,nd roof which tie the buildings. Ido not think there is any immediate dan ger, and the building may probably stand in its present state for many years. Any repairs which would have the effect of securing the walls would be attended with a very large outlay, which I cannot recommend, as the building is very unfit for the purpose for which it is used. " CHARLES BENNETT." After that I several times met the other two gentlemen, and strongly pre , sed them to give me a written state ment. I received none until last Saturday, when I met Mr. Walker, in this room, and urged him to take pen, ink, and paper, and give me his opinion, which he did. " Aug. 19, 1854. " Gentlernen,—l have this morning seen the dilapida tions of the west front of the Union-house, and think it would be most proper to have the opinion of a practica surveyor. " EDWD. WALKER." On Sunday morning I was here from ten to eleven o'clock, and observed that these chains were enlarged, I and as on e o f t h e b uttresses ( w hi ch were very large ones) was within about five feet of the old men's day room, where there were then I think about 50 inmates, and expecting that if the buttress fell it must have come on to the low roof of that building, and crush them all, I directed the master instantly to remove all the inmates to a safe portion. of the building. After seeing this done, I was in this room with the master, when a boy came in, and stated that the clock was stopped. This was at a quarter before 11. I then perceived that danger was likely to occur, and expressed my gladness at our having removed the tutu. I continued here for about ten minutes. By the Coroner—l do not think the attention of the court of guardians was ever drawn to the state of the building. The court of guardians never meet here or come to see the building that I have ever heard of. The board have always done all repairs. I never could make out which was answerable fur the stability of the i building. The Court then adjourned to the hospital, and took the evidence of Mr. Thurlow Nelson, the master of the union house, who lay in the ward. He deposed as fol lows : —My attention was first drawn to the state of the building a few months ago, and I have very often drawn the attention of the board of guardians to the state of the building several weeks ago. On Saturday I called on several of the guardians, and showed them the state of the building. They determined to call a meeting on Monday morning. At that time they did not seem to think there was imminent danger. I thought there was; I told them so. On Sunday morning Mr. Bransby called between 10 and 11, and said he would write to the mayor, and see what steps should be taken. About 10 o'clock I warned all the Inert and boys to keep away from that part of it, as I saw there was danger. I did that of my own suggestion, and before Mr. Bransby came. Most of the persons were then out in the yard. The only person in time building at 10 o'clock, that I was aware of, was Cana. Cana heard the warning that was given, and I do not know why he did not come away. He was not a cripple or unable to leave. He was not under confinement. I sent for Andrews. When he came I said, " I will walk up with you to see what is amiss." We went up together, and as soon as we got up we heard a rattling. I ran for the stairs, and reached about five or six or seven stairs, I think, when the building came down on me and knocked me down. I think I spoke to Andrews, and said, " Come on," or something of the kind. After being knocked down, I laid there, I think, about five minutes before I heard any one. That is my impression. lam not sensible of having suffered much at that time. I could not see ; there was a large long stone lying by the side of my face. I could see that before any one came to me. I had no difficulty in breathing, but I felt a pressure all over my body. I never heard Andrews or anybody for, I think, about five minutes. I then heard some people talking, and I helloed as well as I could, and they heard me. After a little time, some one said, " Lie still, we'll soon have you out." In about ten minutes or a quarter of an hour they cleared me out. Thomas Harrison (who occupied another bed in the room) was then sworn, and deposed as fullows--I was in the old men's day.roow when the building fell. Mr. Nelsen had warned every one to keep clear of the building. I heard the warning ; and I know that Cana heard it. He was talking abcut it afterwards, and said he would not go into the young men's room to be locked up. Mr. Thos. Marsters Kendall, surgeon—Examined Cana's body. His head was crushed, and he was quite doubled up. He was quite dead when discovered. An drews was also entangled in the ruins and quite dead. Mr. Charles Bennett, architect and builder, examined —I received instructions from Mr. Coulton, the clerk of the board, about the middle of June, to examine certain buttresses and the west front wall. Mr. Rolin and Mr. Walker received the same instructions. We could not I agree upon th e ti me on account of our engagemen t s . therefore came alone. On the 23d of June I was asked n by the guardians assembled whether I had made any report. I said I had not had an opportunity of the others, but had examined the building there was no probability of our ine d eti n ef, , d which I then this room and wrote the report pro I retr:o il ; nA. n Smith ewn r fissure that had been stopped delivered in.

I was quite satisfied, from what I saw, that n o port i on of the foundation had given way. That seemed to be the general opinion. After hearing some further evidence, The jury, on a short consultation, returned the fol lowing verdict :—" That the deceased were killed by the falling of the workhouse On Sunday, the 20th inst., and the jury are of opinion that, after the report that the board of guardians had received, stating that there was no immediate danger, and that the building might pro ' bab)) , stand in ite present state for rummy years—no blame attaches to the board of guardians, and that the cause of the death of the deceased was purely accidental." ~~; i by.
