Negotiations are said to be proceeding between
Mr. Laing and the Booliftoi thinerale for the latter
to participate in the conversion scheme.
The new Turkish Ambassador to the Court of
the Tuileries seta out for his post on Thursday next.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.
BUOILMEST, Max 27.

The news that the peasants refused to work, and
that the land remained uncultivated, is unfounded.
There were some inevitable difficulties, which, how-
ever, the language of the Prince and the measures
taken by the government succeeded in removing.
Cultivation has been less general this year than
formerly, on account of the heavy rains of last
autumn, and the dryness of the peat spring. But
with the commencement of the rains this mouth the
peasants have resumed work, particularly in Mol-
davia.
