THE REPLY OF THE FRENIE GOVERN•
MENT TO COUNT NESSELROL)R'S
CULAR.

In the Moniteur of Saturday appears a 'circular
addressed by the French Minister of Foreign Af-
fairs to the diplomatic representatives of the Em-
peror at the various courts of Europe. There is
nothing "ambiguous" in the language of this do-
cument. Its appearance is singularly well-timed,
inasmuch as it effectually disposes of sundiy sinis-
ter rumours respecting the intentions of the French
Government, industriously circulated of late by
the peace-at-any-price faction here.
PARIS, MAY 23.
Monsieur,—All the journals of Europe have repro-
duced from the Journal de St. Petersbourg the circular
which Count Nesselrode addressed, on the 10th of May,
to the Russian agents at foreign courts. The Govern-
ment of the Emperor waited for the official termination
of the conferences before it would pronounce ajudgment
on their general character ;. but since the Cabinet of St,
Petersburg has thought good, to appeal, without delay,
to public opinion, no one will be astonished that we, in
our turn, follow it on the path which it has first trodden.
I enter upon it, for my part, with all the confidence
which the moderation and loyalty of our policy can in-
spire me.
I will, in the first place, recal the circumstances which
determined France and England to consent to take part
in negotiations at a moment when the energetic prose-
cution of the war ought apparently to have been the
principal object of their thoughts and cares. The treaty
of the 2d December had been concluded, and the West-
ern Powers, out of deference to their new ally, consented
to attempt a last effort of conciliation, resting on the.
possibility of inducing Russia to accept the bases-
which, in the general interest of Europe, they had
proposed for peace. It is well known that Prince
Gortschakoff when first called upon, with official
knowledge of the common intentions of France, Eng-
land, Austria, and Turkey, to explain himself respect-
ing those of his own court, refused categorically to ad-
here to the conditions proposed. It was not till the 7th
of January, and after a reference to St. Petersburg,
that he accepted, without any reserve, the principles
known by the name of the four points (quatregaranties).
This fact is attested, in the most peremptory manner,
by the unanimous testimony of the plenipotentiaries pre-
sent at the conference ; moreover, a despatch of Count
Buol, communicated simultaneously at Paris and Lon-
don, proves that the negotiations, of which the outline
had been thus traced, were only opened at the request
of Russia. It is established, therefore, that this Power
cannot reproach us with having taken it by surprise.
She was aware that one of the indispensable conditions
of peace consisted in the cessation of her preponderance
in the Euxine, and ample time had been allowed her to
ascertain the sacrifices which would be imposed upon
herby undertaking an engagement to that effect. The
only questibn is, whether Prince Gortschakoff and M.
de Titoff have fulfilled this engagement ; or whether, on
the contrary, they have fallen short of it. This point I
will discuss immediately ; but I wish, in the first place,
to examine some of the assertions hazarded in M. Nes-
selrode's circular.

Already, during the conferences, the Russian plenipo- 1
tentiaries, at the time when the discussion took place of
the first guarantee relative, in their opinion, to the con-
secration of the immunities of Moldavia, Wallachia, and
Servia, and, in our opinion, to the abolition of the un-
fair influence exercised by the Cabinet of St. Peters-
burg in those three vassal provinces of the Sublime
Porte, had appeared to misunderstand the true position
of the debate. Count Nesselrode develops the same
thesis ; I shall answer' it by some questions. When,
since the last wars, have the immunities of the Danubian
Principalities received the slightest infringement on the
part of the suzerain power? When 'lies the Sultan ever
thought of revoking any of the concessions made by his
predecessors ? When have France, England, and Austria
evinced any other desire save that of maintaining, while
ameliorating, the independent sway of the administra-
tion, which, as has been but too much lost sight of, was
neither in Wallachia nor in Moldavia a recent conquest,
but the result of an agreedient freely concluded ages
ago, and only modified from that day when the
Hospodars began, during the wars of the 18th century,
to depend more on the court of Russia than on the Sub-
lime Porte ? It is thus Moldavia lost half the territory
that had been guaranteed to her by the Sultans ; thus
it was that this province and Wallachia, instead of re-
maining what they ought to be, a respected barrier be-
tween the Ottoman empire and Russia, have, even since
the treaty of Adrianople, that seemed to recognise in
their behalf rights better defined, been governed rather
by agents from the Cabinet of St. Petersburg than by
their own chiefs, and that in the midst of profound
peace, just as if they were merely a prolongation of the
Russian soil, they saw themselves unexpectedly occu-
pied by a foreign army.
Such, sir, are the true evils that •have afflicted
the Danubian Principalities, such the dangers that
have incessantly menaced them. It is to both that
the first of the four guarantees was intended to put
an end. Whether the influence of Russia be-
yond the Pruth has or has not been exer-
cised under the legal title of protectorate, the question
has nothing to do with it, and it would be degrading- it
into a special pleading if he were to put it as Count Nes-
selrode does. History is at hand to inform us what Mol-
davia and Wallachia have gained, in addition to their
old condition by their relations with the court of St.
Petersburg, and it is a return to this state of things that
France, England, and Austria have wished to prevent.
I pass to the second guarantee ; the bases of its regu-
lation are good. I shall content myself with observing,
that should the navigation of the Danube, hampered as
it has been for the last 25 years, recover its liberty, a war
has been requisite to induce Russia not to leave useless
ii her hands one of the finest outlets in the world. Should
Germany acquire this immense boon for its commerce, it
will owe it to the blood shed by France and England.
I am about to come, sir, to the chief point ; but I have
still to reply to a reproach addressed by Count Nesselrode
to• the plenipotentiaries of the Western Powers. He ac-
cuses them of having delayed the study at the conference
of a question bearing on toleration and humanity,
and which, on the contrary, ought to have occupied the
first place in the deliberations—or, to speak more appro-
priately, of net having taken into consideration with so
much zeal as they ought the lot of the Christian subjects
of the Sublime Porte. There is no discussion without
regularity, and it had been agreed to examine in their
order the four guarantees. No w, if the debate stopped
at the third, the obstacle did not proceed from us ; it
was the Russian plenipotentiaries who raised it, and ours
merely conformed to a programme settled beforehand.
Count Nesselrode for the rest takes it, upon himself to
justify their reserve, which was already explained by the
announcement of the speedy arrival at Vienna of the
Sultan's Minister of Foreign Affairs. A religious ques-
tion, envenomed by the pretensions of Russia, had been
the cause of the war. It was natural not to discuss it
unless in the presence of Aali Pacha ; besides, it was no
longer in the terms it had been originally drawn up
in. The cabinet of St. Petersburg 'had required a
formal engagement which, seemingly applicable to reli-
gious immunities alone, would not the less have humi-
liated the Porte, fettered its administrative action, and
have paralysed in the civil order all efficacious reform.
France and England openly declared that the Turkish
Government was bound to refuse its submission to such
conditions, which would have entailed ruin on its inde-
pendence ; and, if reference be made to the text of the
fourth guarantee, it is easy to see that, Russia engaged
to renounce the reproducing of them, and to leave to the
Sultan, save and except the friendly action and the
counsels of his allies, the initiative of what measures
were to be taken in the material and moral interest of his
subjects. What was to be done, therefore, at the con-
ferences of Vienna was not to discuss systems theoreti-
cally, but simply to proclaim a principle directly the re-
verse of the one, that of triumph, which the mission of
Prince Menscbikoff to Constantinople had for its object.
Count Nesselrode says enough on the subject to permit
us to doubt whether the Russian plerjpotentiaries would
have confined themselves to these liniits. They would
probably, as in the discussion about the Danubian
Principalities, have mistaken the motives of the fourth
guarantee, and they would have forgotten that there
was still debateable anything save the requirement of
Russia to which Europe could not subscr.ibe. The latest
reforms effected in Turkey, those they gave birth to, the
eagerness the Sublime Porte has shown in listening to
our counsels, prove that the hear* of the Sultan is open
to the most generous inspirations. What' is essential is
that these inspirations should be 'carried out without
troublesome interference, that he who conceives them
may have the merit of them in the eye of his subjects and
the world. And to the end that this result may be ob-
tained, it is indispensable that Russia for the future
should abandon the arms she has made use o fin turns,
either for stopping useful reforms or for alie,aating the
populations from their sovereign. Such is the meaning
of the fourth guarantee, and When we read try' despatch

LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 28. 1855.

of Count Nesselrode we might suppose that it is not
viewed in this light at St. Petersburg.
I now come, sir, to the question of the Black Sea.
Struck, on the one hand, with the inadequacy of the
treaty of July 13, 1841, to insure in the European family
an invariable place for the Turkish empire ; and on the
other hand, with the dangers to which Turkey was
exposed by the increase of the Russian forces in the
Euxine, France, England. and Austria have declared
that the convention of the Straits ought to be revised,
or in still better words, to be completed, and that it
was necessary, by putting an end to Russian prepon-
derance ie the Black Sea, to re-establish between her
aryl the other fluvial power of this interior basin, the
,quiliblium that had been derarged by a series of disas-
trous events, Prince Gert,,chakoff, after some hesita-
tion at first, adhered at the preliminary conference of
Jan. 7, to the two terms of this proposition, which ex-
plains it.elf, which contains nothing ambiguous ; and it
was on the faith of that itdhe,ite. that the represents-
fives of France and
with their full powers.
England at Vienna were furni.shed

The Government of the Emperor and that of her
Britannic Majesty were boned, I repeat, to suppose
that the Cabinet of St. Petersburg had made up its
mind to the sacrifices dictated by the situation, and
in this ' expectation the Russian plenipotentiaries
had been invited to make the initiative, the object
being to preserve the dignity of their court. On the
refusal of the Cabinet of St. Petersburg to announce.
first, the concessions to which it would be disposed to
consent, the Allies of the Sublime Porte agreeing with
it, brought forward the conditions, which are specified
in one of the riders to the eleventh protocol.
I shall make no attempt, sir, to justify our demands ;
for their moderation is self-evident. Nor shall I enter
into details that have now become futile. I prefer de-
fining the interests of Europe in the Black Sea, and
then examining whether the double solution proposed
by Russia gives to those interests the satisfaction which
it is our object to obtain for them. •
Exclusively confined by the coasts of the two neigh•
bouring states, closed against the other maritime powers,
the Euxine had become, as it were, an arena, where ad-
versaries of unequal strength found themselves alone
confronting each other—the wakes of the two being
delivered up to the discretion of the more powerful one.
A formidable fortress contained within its citadels and
roadstead an army always ready to embark, and
a fleet always ready to take them on board and put to
sea. This warlike display, unnecessary for defence, had
but one possible destination. It constituted 'a perma.
nent menace against the capital of Turkey, and the
mystery which surrounded it increased a peril which at
the slightest symptom of a crisis alarmed the whole of
Europe. Constrained in spite of effizrts, which history
will appreciate, to have recourse to arms, France and
England owe it to themselves, and also to Europe, not
to lay them down until their work shall be accomplished.
It is necessary that the peace which they shall have ob—
tained shall be followed by a secure repose.
Would such security be the consequence of either of
the two combinations recommended by Count Nessel-
rode ? In a word, would these two systems put an end
to the preponderance of Russia in the Black Seat The
first, that based on the principle of the complete and re-
ciprocal opening of the passages of the Bosphorus and
of the Dardanelles, inVolires the abolition of a rule
which the Ottoman empire has always considered as
its safeguard, and which since 1841 has become part of
the public law of Europe. At present, Russia, who
refuses to reduce the number of her vessels, in alleging

the exigencies of her honour and the prerogative of her
sovereignty, does not hesitate to apply to the Sublime
Porte for the abdication of its independence in its ►nter-
nal waters—in the great artery which passes through
its capital. She claims a new passage into the Mediter-
ranean, that is to say, the means and the pretext of aug-
menting in vast proportions her maritime development ;
and, in compensation for these advantages, she confines
herself to giving her consent that foreign squadrons
may in future enter a sea where they would find neither
a port of refuge nor an arsenal of supply.
In order to exercise the surveillance, the right of
which would be indirectly conceded to them, France and
England would be obliged to impose on themselves for
ever the most onerous sacrifi6es. I will add, sir, and
this consideration is of great weight, that peace, if con-
cluded on such cond►tions, would be exposed to the ha-
zard of the first incident that might occur, and that

-',4_I7AL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE,

The Imperieuse, screw 51, Captain Watson, C. 8.,
arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from the Baltic,
where she was lately the senior officer's ship of the ad-
vanced or flying squadron of the fleet in those seas. She
has come home to repair the damages she sustained by
getting in collision wits her Majesty's corvette Tartar,
Captain Dunlop. A new bowsprit, fore-knee, and other
important limbs have been prepared for the Imperieuse,
which will go into Portsmouth-harbour to-day to fit
them.

The Tintes Portsmouth correspondent has received the
following account of the catastrophe which befel the
steam-gunboat Weser, one of those two for which the
late Government (Sir J. Graham's) exchanged with Prus-
sia her Majesty's ship Thetis, 42, one of the finest and
best sailing frigates of her class on the British navy list :
" Constantinople, May 3.

" I sincerely hope you received my laA letter from
Malta, which we left on the day it was posted. We enjoyed
very fine weather and an equally good passage, reaching
the various Greek islands and passing through what is
known among sailors as the "Arches" in perfect safety.
However, on nearing the Straits of the. Dardanelles,
which we did at evening, we stood in rather too far, near
a place named Suradella ; just after 11 p.m., April 24,
the ship was on fire, and, as soon as that was out, which
was slight, she struck very heavily on a rock, and all
efforts to get her off by backing the engines proved use-
less. An anchor was laid out, and we remained there
until the next forenoon, when several vain attempts
were made by removing stores and other things from
her. Our consort, the Recruit, came _up just before ;
the sea was now running very roughly, and boats were
got out, as she was filling fast, and every one was
thinking what was best to save, the men getting all
their clothes on deck, and the vessel rolling so heavily
that the public money, signals, and ship's boo/I-were all
sent on board the Recruit, together with -such stores as
could be sent, as long as the state of the sea would per-
mit any boats to go in safety. By some good luck, at this
time, and by using all possible efforts, she was backed
astern, and then got off. As soon as this was effected she
filled so fast that the only chance of saving many lives
was to beach the ship, and this was done, but not with-
out great risk, and running over so many rocks that
another hole was knocked in her bottom under the en-
gine. The forehold at this time was filled, and the fore
peak, notwithstanding the so-called water-tight com-
partments. As I was on board the Recruit at this time,
and no chance occifrred to me to return, I had to go in
her the next morning, at 4 a.m., to Gallipoli, for assist-
ance, and we arrived there at 10. Here again ill•luck
stared us in the face, as the weather was so bad, and the
place is nothing better than a roadstead. The com-
mander would not land until it was too late to be of any
service. However, he did land, and also the next morn-
ing, and brought off two Turkish vessels to take on
board all stores, guns, &c. Despatches were sent to
Constantinople and Sir Edmund Lyons. The Recruit
returned the same afternoon to Suddelbar, at 5 p.m.
Here the Turkish commandant had sent fifty men to
assist all they could, and the English Consul was
there also. A French steamer, the Tisiphone, lent
a very good engine. On the next day some Greek
divers were engaged, who stopped up holes where they
could, and the Oberon came down from Constan-
tinople from Admiral Grey. The lighters were filled,
and nearly everything got out of her to lighten her, but
it was not till May 2 we were in such a state, and then
a very doubtful one, to proceed under any circumstances.
On this ch,y we were towed, inshore side of the Recruit
and two Turkish vessels astern, to Constantinople,
where we arrived on the 3d, and were then again
grounded to prevent us sinking.

"MAT 4.
" We ara now anxiously waiting to go into the dock.
The Recruit left to-day, and went to Kertch direct,
where operations begin next week. We ought to be
there, but misfortunes attend us."

The Sydney, steam-transport, Thornhill master, arrived
at Spithead on Saturday afternoon from Constantinople
and Scutari. She sailed From Gibraltar (all her previous
tailings have been before reported in The Sun) on the
20th inst., with 133 wounded soldiers, of various regi-
ments at the seat of war, five women, and two children ;
also Captain A. M. H. G. Gregory, of tae Scots Fusi-
lier Guards, Captain C. M. S. L. Gwynne, of the 62nd ;
Captain Vance, of the 68th, on military charge ; Cap-
tain Taddy, Royal Artillery ; Assistant-Surgeon Shiell,
14 the 68th, on medical charge ; Assistant-Surgeon
Bone, of the 17th, and Ensign Barr, of the 90th. When
20 miles north of Cape St. Vincent she exchanged num-
bers with the Saxon steam transport ; on the 23i inst.,
in lat.. 43.58 north, long. 9.57 west, passed a screw man-
of-war with three gun-boats in tow (the Malacca, no
doubt), off the Lizard, on Friday last, spoke the John
Bright, and the English barque Stockton, outward-
bound. She has had one death among the invalids, and
one of her crew on the passage. She went into Ports-
mouth harbour yesterday, at 3.30 p.m., to land her
sick. The Baltic steam-transport (No. 192) left Ports-
mouth ou Saturday for Deptford. The Powerful,
84, Captain Massie, and the Calcutta, 84, Cap-
tain J. J. Stopford, sailed from Spithead
on Satur-
day, for the Note ; the Powerful made good her
passage, hut the Calcutta brought up at St. Helen's
Roads, having lost her tide ; she proceeded yesterday
morning. It is supposed they go to man the newly-
commissioned floating batteries Glutton and Me-
teor, although it is also reported they go to France
on troop service ; we lean to the former report. The
Empress Eugenie sailing transport left Spithead, on
Saturday, for Queenstown, to disembark the left wing
of the 15th Foot. The Golden Fleece steam transport
left Portsmouth on Saturday for Southampton to refit.
The Odin, 16, paddle steam-frigate, Captain Wilcox,
left Spithead at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon for the
Black Sea, with the mortars belonging to the six mortar
vessels, the Firm, the Flamer, the Hardy, the Havoc,
the Surly, the Growler, the three-first named of which
vesssels she towed with her, the three latter the Rosa-
mood will tow hack' to. the ••place whence they came
(Sheerness), there to be exchanged for the larger class
of mortar boat, such as the Magnet, which are estimated
as better enabled to carry the bomb. The Odin took
out Captain Digby and a . detachment of Royal Ar-
tillery for the Crimea. She will remain out and
be attached to the fleet of Sir Edmund Lyons. She

require to be again kept within bounds, so that her pre-
ponderance would not have ceased to exist, and the ob-
ject of the third guarantee would have been frustrated.
Would that object be better attained by the adoption
of the system developed, in the second line, by Prince
Gortschalioff and M. de Titoff ? The straits, it is true,
would remain closed ; but the statu quo which existed
before the war would' be re-established, the Russian
navy would be repaired without control behind the for-
tifications of her ports ; and, when the Sultan would re-
gard an aggression as imminent, then only would he be
authorised to give-the alarut to his allies. The reply to
that appeal would be another war, which would prove
at the same time the want of foresight of the Western
Powers, and the regenerated strength of the enemy
whom they are combating at present. Could they,
without imprudence, consent to an arrangement which
would accord to them only a momentary repose, troubled
in advance 'by their own provisions? Finally, would
the preponderance of Russia in the Black Sea be de-
stroyed, if it were necessary, at the very moment of
making peace, to agree on the means of one day putting
an end to it ? .

It would be superfluous, sir, to carry this reasoning
further, and I believe that I have demonstrated that,
starting from the principle of the opening or closing, of
the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus, the Cabinet of St.
Petersburg did not keep the engagement it took in caus-
ing itself to be represented in the conferences at Vienna.
To confirm this judgment I will content myself with
calling to mind that Count Buol, in the last meeting on
the 26th April, declared that " the Russian project, in
which he could see neither a solution nor a basis for a
solution, indicated only the means of reacting against
the naval preponderance of Russia, when it should have
already assumed the proportions of an intolerable dan-
ger, but in no respect tended to cause it to cease in a
permanent manner, and in the ordinary state of things."
The demands of the Western Powers, in conformity
with the wishes of the Porte, supported to the end by
the Austrian plenipotentiaries, as a complete and effica-
cious system, were, on the contrary, as moderate in
form as they were legitimate in their nature. We asked
nothing from Russia which would have caused her dig-
nity, and still less her honour, to suffer. We invited
her, moved solely by the general interest of Europe, to
fix on a basis equitably calculated and accepted by the
Porte the number of vessels which she means to keep
for the future in a sea in which she has to dread no at-
tack, and in which her navy, reduced to reasonable pro-
portions, amply sufficient for the regular services for
which she would have to provide, would in any case
have been at least equal to the Ottoman navy. The
Cabinet of St. Petersburg refused this accord, which
would have restored peace to the world. It bas declined
the authority of the examples that were cited to it ; has
forgotten that, in its last treaty of peace with Persia,
it imposed itself on that power the obligation of
abstaining from navigating the Caspian Sea, and of
exclusively reserving that sea to the flotillas of Russia ;
it has not consented to admit what France, England,
the United States, and the Netherlands, under different
forms, and at different epochs, have accepted, either to
terminate war, or to consolidate peace, or to suppress
germs of rivalry or conflict between neighbouring states.
Shall I notice a point which Count Nesselrode sig-
nalises as forgetfulness of what is due to the sovereignty
of Russia in her own territory ? He reproaches us with
having desired, contrary to international law, to deny to
the Cabinet of St. Petersburg the power of refusing or
withdrawing the exequatur to the consuls who may be
installed in the ports of the Enxine. We never enter-
tained such a pretension. We only demanded that no
residence should be interdicted ; but it was understood

tivesreceive, the apprebation of the Russian Government.
I have now terminated, sir, this expose, and there will
result from it, I hope, for all impartial minds the convic.
lion that the Western Powers cannot be responsible for
the continuation of a war the effects of which they have
desired to stop with as much sincerity and zeal as they
employed to prevent the breaking out of it. France and
and England do not entertain these sentiments ascribed
to them ; their hostility is not, as has been said, im-
placable. They have never desired to impose on Rus-
sia a peace derogatory to her honour and her dignity ;
but necessity has charged them with a duty which, with
the aid of Divine Providence, they will know how to ful-
fil ; and Europe, consolidated on her bases, will be
thankful to them for having restrained within jut
bounds an influence which everywhere endeavoured to
go beyond the circle of its legitimate action. I autho-
rise you to read this despatch to and to your
colleagues.—Receive, &c. WALEWSILI.
