LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 21.

WE give in another column the Russian reply
to Earl Rummel; note. It is a serious, busition-
like document, all the more explicit for its haughti-
ness of tone. Reserving for another occasion
Prince Gourcitsxorr's estimate of the Polish in-
surrection, which, he says, is the work of a few
foreigners, and maintained against the will of the
mass of the people, we direct attention to the
answer given to the propositions of the Three
Powers.

The proposal of an armistice is distinctly and
decidedly rejected. The Emperor of Rusau, it is
said, owes it to his faithful army, to "the peace•
" able majority of the Poles," and to Russia, to take
energetic _ measures to crush the insurrection.

" Desirable u it may be speedily to place a term to
" the effusion of blood, this object can only be at-
" tained by the irmurgents throwing down their
" arms and surrendering themselves to the cle-
" money of the EXPEROIL Every other arrange-
" went would be incompatible with the dignity of
" our august muter, and with the sentiments of
" the Russian nation."

As to the Six Points, Prince Goarcssmorr re.
fers to his former despatch to ahow that the EM-
PEROR has already either decreed or prepared
the greaLer part of the measure. which they
include. The EMPEROR will cart/ them out at
the proper time, but the re-organization of the
kingdom must be preceded by the re-
establishment of "order," the greatest obstacle
to which is the material assistance and moral en-
couragement which the insurgents receive from
abroad.

The proposal of a Conference of the eight
Powers which signed the Treaty of Vienna for the
purpose of discussing the Six Points is rejected.
" If the measures were to t3submitted to ulter.;or
" deliberation, there would result a direct inter-
" ference of foreign Powers in the most int'mate
" details of the administration, an interference
" that no great Power could admit," It would
also "further Increase the pretenions and Ulu-
" aions of the Polish agitators." The only con-
ference which Russia will accept is • conference
with Austria and Proms* between which "the
" traditions of history" (1772 and 1795 t) and
immediate neighbourhood establish • certain com-
munity and reciprocity of interests.

Thus the Russian Government accepts none of
the proposals of the Three Powers, unless the
confusion of the Six Points withthe measures enu-
merated in Prince GORTCHAKOPP'S earlier despatch
is to be deemed acceptance. The Premcz's reply
concludes with a solemn appeal to the Great Powers
to employ language which shall cut off the Po'ish
leaders from all hope of active intervention, so
that the EMPEROR may proceed more rapidly with
the restoration of " order."

LAST evening what remains of our truant Com-
MONS held the debate so long announced, so often
deferred, and so anxiously expected in all the
great centres of public opinion throughout
Europe. The melancholy theme of this lost
oratorical display of the Session, received
ample justice from the mover of the resolutlor,
denouncing the clauses of the Treaty of Vienna
which have failed to secure the good government
of Poland or the peace of Europe. Mr. Hon-
MAN's eloquent and exhaustive speech, as a
masterly survey of the historical and pre-
sent aspects of the question, a pressing
argument addressed to the highest con-
siderations of statesmanship, a generous appeal
to the broadest interests of international justice
and morality, will deservedly increase the poli-
tical reputation of one who has not per-
haps always united in so just a measure the
qualities of reason and feeling which belong to a
due sense of responsibility, and a discerning
boldness of judgment. Mr. HORAWAN Aires the
Cabinet some credit for its invitation to the eight
Powers, signatories to the Treaty of Vienna, to
address Russia in similar terms to Lord Rueacm.'s
despatch of April 10. This he thinks was a safe,
dignified, and commanding policy ; but the
FOREIGN SECIRISTARY'S reply to the Russian Am-
bassador, who requested to be informed of
the nature and tendency of the communications
addressed to St. Petersburg, bad placed England
in a position from which it would be difficult to
recede with honour. Mr. llostosson exposes,
with force and clearness, the utter futility of
the internal reforms proposed to Russia, on
behalf of a people which has already been
" diplomatised to death," and is now fighting des-
perately for independence, not for any milder ad-
ministration. He compares Lord Pousunrow's
policy in 1831 towards the Polish Revolution
with Lord Ruassu'a in 1863, the condition of the
great Powers and the political situation of Europe
now and then, and he concludes that England should
have held her peace on the present occasion, or be
