RUSSIA'S ACCEPTANCE OF THE
FATERHAZY PROPOSALS.

The following is the text of the despatch posted
yesterday at the Paris Bonne:

" VIENNA, JAL 16, 111. 161. Evsmixo.
"The French Minister to the Minister for Foreign
Affairs :

"' Count Reterhary writes to-day from Saint Pe-1
tersburg that M. de Nesselrode hu just notified the
acceptance, pure and simple, of the propositions con-
tained in the ultimatum, which propositions are to
serve as the preliminaries for peace.'
" Received at half-past twelve, and published par-
euant to orders from his Exoellenoe the Minister of
the Interior, the 17th of January, 1656.
" The Commissary of the Boone,
Hunatrr."

The effect of the above despatch spotltheßoar se
and the city of Perim will be found described else-
where in an interesting letter from our Paris cor-
respondent

W. subjoin farther despatches which have come to
hand since oar last impression :

" BERLIN, TIVUDAT.
" Yesterday at 2 o'clock Count Nesselrode and
Count Valentine listerhasy signed, at St. Petersburg,
a protocol containing the conditions proposed by the
Allies, as the formulation of the preliminaries of
peace

', DRESDEN, TEI7IIIDAT.

" A supplement to the official locrosal cid Dreade
dates that the following Lee been remind from an
authentic source at Vienna:

" 'Russia accepts unoouditionally the propositions
of pesos made by Austria.' " _ _

BILUSSILS,

" Prunia has used all her influence with the Ca-
binet of St. Petersburg to induce it to accept peace,
and it is believed that Russia is not deaf to the
counsel."

Our ow➢ Oovernme➢t hare received the following
telegraphic despatch from Sir Hamilton Seymour:
"The Banta➢ Government accepts the Austrian
proposals as a basis for negotiation."

Our daily journals wisely caution the public
against the permission that the telegraphic' memages
from Vienna and Berlin, and that posted by the
French Government on the Paris Bourse, necessarily
imply that all the propositions upon which the Allies
insist have ben unconditionally accepted by Russia.
The terms of the fifth proposition are general, and
do not necessarily include the undertaking not to for-
tify the Aland Isles, any more than any other de-
mand the Allies might think fit to make. "We do
not believe" says the Times," that this requisition has
yet been specifically submitted to Russia, and,
whatever may be the probabilities of the ease, we
are certainly not justified In saying that she has
unconditionally accepted it. Two other terms on
which we mast peremptorily insist—the disarming
of the eastern coast of the Black Sea, and the allowing
Consuls of the Western Powers to reside in the
Russian ports on its waters—havebeen only slightly
and ambiguously mentioned. Why this is so we do
not know. That is the concern of Austria. We are
not principals in the negotiation, but have employed
the mediation of a third Power, whose duty it is to
see that Russia be brought to an unconditional
asseptanoe of oar terms, with all their stipulations,
before we even eater into negotiation'
The Post believes it will be found that Lord Cla-
rendon emphatically stated to the Cabinet of Vienna
that we must insist upon Russia's binding herself
not to rebuild Bocausund. This resolve, justifiable
on the grounds of military manses, and requisite as
a matter of high import to the well-being of Europe,
becomes imperative, when it is remembered that
we have only recently concluded an allies°. with
Sweden, and that it is our bounden duty not to leave
our Ally at the mercy of Rusin, nor to permit the
moved= of a huge and menacing fortress within
one hundred miles of Stockholm." Under these eir-
minuteness, then, " it will be the duty of the
bill-
gerents," says the Post, "before negotiations can be
entered upon, to signify their intentions to Russia,
and to require her acceptance of proposals totally free
from the possibility:of 'misinterpretation. These pro-
posals, we trust, will have the support of Austria
and the German Powers, and will, we are confident,
r meet with acceptance at St. Petersburg, if Ramie be
' now really alive to her own interest', and anxious
for the welfare of Europe. If they are accepted,
then negotiation will follow, but not at Vienna, nor
Paris, nor Ueda'. All preliminaries being once
satisfactorily adjusted, some more fit place will be
appointed for the conduct of Conferences." The place
chosen will probably be Brussels.
The Herald denounces the " weakness and treach-
erous purposes" of the Austrian proposals, and the
CArcedols speculates as to the effect of the news
upon the tactics of Mr. Disraeli and the Parliamentary
Opposition. Upon one point, however, the entire
daily press is agreed—vim, that nothing should in-
duce us to relax for a single moment in our prepare-
tioas foe a spring campaign until all the stipulations
have been clearly and unequivocally pat by Austria,
end as clearly and unequivocally onceded by Russia.
We hear to-day that the authorities of the War
Department are not abating their efforts. No coun-
ter orders having been received at the Storekeeper's
Department in the Tower, the embarkation of ord-
ealsce and comminearist stores is carried on with the
same energy and dispatch as heretofore, and the
operations in the small-arms proving establish-
ment have been rather on the increase. Instruc-
tions wen forwarded this morning to the command-
ing aloof* of embodied regiments of militia,
notifying that volunteers from these oorps will be
accepted for service in light cavalry regiments, with
the exception of the 10th Human and 12th Lancers,
which regiments ere complete to the war establish-
ment, namely, 700 rack and file each, and for third-
clam (now snood-elms) drivers in the Land Transport

COMMENTS OF THE

The Independence of Brussels, an authority not to
be despised when the question relates to the mo-
tic= of Aussie, affirms that if Russia now appears
easeiliatery, it is in the hope of breaking off, not
only the Austrian, bat the French alliance, and
taking vengeance on Ragland at some future day,
however distant

The Debate of this morning takes the most san-
guine view of events, and confidently expresses the
opinion that the signing of then prelimioaries by
Ramis will lead to the speedy conclusion of poser.
The Paris Prism of yesterday evening says of the
despatch:—

If It is set yet pease, It must at least be admitted that
ewer Mass the eommeateme•t of hostilities, was pease SO
probable. ;The proprieties's mussed by Russia "Ebner

The Presse farther observes as being very curium
thaValtheagh the unexpected acceptanor, " purely
sad simply," of the ultimatum meow naturally attri•
hatable to the announced resolution of Austria to

withdraw bar arobsasador from St. Petersburg unless
the propositions were accepted before the 18th iast.,
the Ctesstitsaionnel of yesterday morning, contra,
dieting all the previous news, and its own among the
rest, affirms that Austria never came to any such re.
solution, but on the contrary, thought the Russian

counter-propositions so well worthy of consideration
that Count Buol, indeed of construing them as a
negative answer, which it has all along been sworn
through thick and thin he had no choice but to do,
had asked the Western Powers to take them into
serious consideration.
The Patrie, of last evening, says:
. _

Thank God, prodence end good sense have carried off the
victory I The Cabinet of Bt. Petersburg has not allowed
pewee to be fructrated for the sake of some village., and
the abandonment of one or two military points upon a naz.
rew tongue of land. It accepts purely and simply the con-
ditions placid before it. This is for the Western Pours,
and for all Eitropo, a subject for legitimate satisfaction;
sad HAWa es. eoogratulate herself upon having fulfinad a
great duty while avoiding great misfortunes. The Con-
ferences, without doubt, will shortly open, and these will,

mistrust—we're no of the re•establiehment of pew upon%
solid and durable foundation.
