THE VIENNA NEGOTIATIONS.

The Ost-Deutsche Post publishes the following:
"The reports of difficulties which have arisen in
the peace negotiations, of new pretensions put for-
ward by the Danish Government as regards North-
ern Schleswig, are daily renewed. In vain does
the press endetvour to point out the inexorable
necessity of Denmark, as she is circumstanced, to
conclude peace; the rumour of an adjournment of
peace still prevails."
The New Free Press, a journal recently started
at Vienna, says :—" Denmark would never have
dared to raise objections as regards the financial
question, nor threatened to abandon the clauses
stipulated in the preliminaries, if she were not
backed by the three great Powers. Russia, France,
and England are now acting in concert with the
solo object of paralysing the work of peace, to
save, at least, North Schleswig to Denmark, and
to effect a r( Julian of the Duchies to Denmark by
the aid of the fatal question of succession, which
still remains pending."
A letter from Berlin, dated 61 September,
says :—" The Emperor of Russia has charged
Colonel de Soen, Military Attache of the Prussian
Embassy in Russia, with a special mission to the
King at Baden. The King, accompanied by M. de
Bismark, will return to Berlin on the 12th. Prince
Frederick Charles is also expected. He will be
accompanied by the Austrian General de Gab-
lentz."

Constantinople letters and journals of the 31st
ult. have reached us, but their contents are not of
any great interest. The following are some items
of general intelligence taken from the Levant
Herald :—" The Marquis of Drogeda's fine schooner
yacht arrived in the Golden Horn, having the
Marquis and Marchioness and a party of friends
on board. We understand that they purpose re-
maining for a short time. Colonel Raouf Bev,
the Sultan's principal aide-de-camp, who has left
for Egypt to escort the Egyptian princesses on
their homeward journey, will immediately after-
wards proceed to Tunis on a special mission in
connection with the existing condition of affairs
in that Regency. Youssouf Bey, one of the
Sultan's chamberlains, has been appointed super,
intendent and comptroller of music in the
Imperial palace. Youssouf Effendi has been nomi-
nated to the post of Imperial chamberlain. As
many conflicting statements have been published as
to the actual fate of the Italian travellers who have
been for the past year imprisoned at Bokhara, we
are glad to be able to state that they ale at liberty.
They have arrived at Orenburg, and left for St.
Petersburg, on their way home,
The variety of soil
and climate embraced in the Turkish dominions is
indicated in the circumstance of 8130 W having re-
cently fallen for three consecutive days in the
Roumelian village of Vidos, in the range of the
Balkans, whilst the capital at the very same time
was panting under the canicular heat. The
Cir-
cassian refugees still afford busy work to the
Government transports. Several sailing vessels have
arrived in port during the week from 'l'rebizond and
Samsoun with an aggregate of 2,200 Circassians,
who were at once carried on to the colony forming
at Silivria. Last week the Omer Pasha brought a
fine body of 80 men, to swell the ranks of the
Circassians who have already entered the Turkish
army. We are
glad to learn that the Scheik-ei.
Islam, who is at the head of the civil magistracy as
well as of the clerics of the country, has recently
addressed an important circular to all the dispensers
of justice throughout the provinces, d propos of the
recent report of the Grand Council. In this report
his Highness impresses earnestly upon the function.
arics whom he addresses the necessity of their cordial
co-operation in endeavouring to give the reforms
inaugurated in the present Sultan's reign a fruit-
ful result. He insists upon the most scrupulous
probity, and enjoins that all matters brought be-
fore them for decision should be adjudicated upon
in strict conformity with the civil and religious
laws of the Empire, and principle of upright impar-
tiality.—The Saidi-bahri, a handsome new steam
tender for the Sultan's yacht Tabs, arrived here
from the Thames on Wednesday last, in charge of
Capt. Coin 3 n, who brought out her predecessor. She
made a rapid passage of fourteen days inclusive, of
two days' stoppages. Built by Messrs. Sarnuda, of
Blackwell, she is of the same class of vessel as the
Talia, but on a smaller scale, and fitted up with less
luxurious elegance. After her arrival, she went to
meet the Sultan, who was returning from Ismidt in
the Talia, and his Majesty having minutely in-
spected her, expressed himself much gratified."
