RUSSIA.

ST. PETERSBURG. Jul.. 15.
The Northern Post, in its review of the events of
the past year, says :—" Russia does not require
either enlargement of her territory or increase of
her influence over the populations of the East.
She demands, however, the co-operation of the
European powers in promoting the welfare of the
Christian subjects of Turkey, by which the occur-
rence of a catastrophe will be averted."
