SECOND EDITION. Standard-office, Two o'clock, p.m. 4s- [BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.] LONDON, TUESDAY MORNING THE EASTERN QUESTION The Times says : " The proposal agreed to, at Vienna, and despatched to Constantinople, can hardly fail to be accepted by the Porte ;" for whatever that proposal may be, the Times assumes it protects the indepetdence of the Sultan in his relations with his Christian subjects, and that it insures the immediate evacuation of his territories by the Russian armies. Any scheme falling short of these two essential points would be derisory ; but if full security be given on these two heads, the Porte will, doub tless, adopt the recommendation of the four powers, which will at once be forwarded to the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh for its immediate decision and acceptance, or rejection at once. This, the Times believes to be the present shape of the negotiations, as far as it can be known in this coun- try at this moment, no d from either of the principal sible to deny that a great do place, in one way or other negotiation, which has be account by the Russian ar❑ The Morning Post emp that the ultimatum agreed sth July, was immediately and there is no middle cour may either accept the ulti efinite answer having arrived s in the quarrel It is impos elay of valuable time has taken day expense in en turned to the last possible repeats its statement, to at Vienna on Tuesday, the forwarded to St. Petersburgh, rse left for Russia. The Czar matum, or he may refuse, and evade it. Evasion will be considered synonymous with refusal. By the 10th of August, the whole matter will be terminated peaceably, or the combined forces will be com manded to proceed to the Bosphorus, or, perhaps, to the Black Sea. It is almost impossible to conceive that the Emperor will decide against peace, when all Europe is arrayed against him. The first condition would be the immediate evacuation of the Principalities ; and we may readily believe the conference now assembled at Vienna will not separate without some binding act to render such aggressions as that attempted by Russia impossible, and to place the Ottoman Empire under the guarantee of alli ance and joint pledge of Europe, for its permanent inde pendence and integrity. At present, the substantial Question is, " How long are the Russians to occupy the Principalities ?" and " How are they to be got out ?" The information the Times has received from those provinces shows that the occupation amounts to an absolute possession rather than a tempo rary invasion. The authority assumed by the Russian generals is complete. Not only do the Principalities suf fer considerably, nay severely, from the occupation, but it is felt in the seats of industry—the markets and the densely -peopled cities of the most civilized countries in Europe. It contributes at this moment to raise the price of wheat in Mark-lane, and to check the productive labour of Manchester and Lyons; for it must be remembered that, although we live in an age when it is specially disa greeable to ru n th e r i s k of war for distant political causes, yet those distant political causes are brought nearer than they ever were to our own doors, and affect even the supplies of food and the demand for labour in the British isles.
