MEETING OF THE CONFERENCE.

I AND Darn= rumsAni.)
PARIS, Wiz MOMNO.

The ifenitaw suneenoes that the representatives
of the Powers signing the Treaty of Paris will rt.
assenible this day (Wednesday) in Conference, to
consult upon the means of putting en end to the
difilenhise which have prevented the =cation of
Article 20 of the Treaty.

The Nord says As moms of the London journals
madam to affirm that Ronda will not receive any
onespeosatits for Bolgrad, we are dealroun that our
remarks en the 'abject should not be misunderstood.
We repeat, therefore, that, is principle, the indemnity
which it has been agreed to give to Rued& is not
accorded for Bolgrad, which is given to Moldavia
without compensation, but for the Isle of Serpents
and the Delta of the Danube; and the concession
which Russia makes of Bolgrad will be taken into
loonsideratica to determine this territorial indemnity
This indemnity, moreover, is not in itself of any
importance for an empire so vast as Russia, and we
believe that France had instated on that indemnity
in order to prove the justice of the remonstranose of
the Russian plenipotentiaries against being made
responsible for the errors in the French maps which
had been mods see of at the Congress of Paris."
"The Russian government," says a letter from St.
Petersburg, in the Moats, "has despatched to its
representative in the commission for the delimitation
of Beimarable an order to hand over at once to Mol-
davia the tenitary on which the commission have
already come to an understanding. The population
of this territory is supposed to comprise 160,000
souls."
