ANOTHER NESSELRODE NOTE.

The following is the text of a note by: Count
Nesselrode, respecting the contents of which specu-
lation has been for a time very busy. It is ad-
dressed to the Russian ambassador at the court of
Berlin :

St. Petersburg, Nov. G.

M. le Baron,—lnformation which reaches us from
various quarters proves that at the present moment
nearly all the German Governments are possessed with
a common fear, that of seeing a schism arise between
the two great German powers respecting the affairs of
the East, an event which might endanger the tranquillity
of the common country, and even imperil the existence
of the Germanic Confederation. Faithful to the policy
which it has pursued from the commencement of this
deplorable complication, and desiring to circumscribe its
disastrous consequences within the narrowest "possible
limits, the Emperor, our august master, has wished, in
the present conjuncture, and% as fat as on hint depends,
to preserve Germany from the curse which would menace
it in such a case. _ _

You are, therefore, M. le Baron, to deolare to the
Prussian Cabinet that the Emperor is disposed to take
part in negotiations which should have for their object
the re-establishment of peace, and for which the four
propositions so forth below should serve as a starting
point—namely:---
1. The religious and civil rights of the Christian
population subject to the Sultan, without distinction of
rites, to be assured by the common guarantee of the
Five Powers.

2. The Protectorate of the Principalities exercised

in common by the Five Powers on the same conditions
as our treaties with the Porte have stipulated in their

Favour.

3. Revision of the treaty of 1841. Russia will not
oppose its abolition, if the Sultan, the principal party
concerned, consents to' it.
4. Freedom of navigation on the Danube, which
exi:sts de jure, and which Russia never had the intention
of obstructing. .
This determination is founded, of course, on the sup-
position that the Western Powers will faithfully fulfil
the engagement they have contracted in the face of
Europe, to secure the future a:cal of the Christian
populations of the Ottoman empire, that their religious
and civil rights shall be placed henceforth under the
guarantee of all the powers, and that thus the chief
object Russia has in view in the present war shall be
obtained.

If the sentiments that have dictated the present decla-
ration to his Majesty the Emperor are appreciated
in Germany, as -we are bound to suppose, we think we
may indulge, in the hope that the Confederation, re-
united on the same ground, and completely re-assured
as to the German interests engaged in the question,
will profit by its unanimity to weigh in the balance of
Europe in favour of a peace of which Austria and
Prussia have presented to us, in the four points, a basis
that will perfectly satisfy them.
If, ou the contrary, this union, maintained once more
by the care of Russia, has been desired to be used as a
pretext for advancing fresh conditions, incompatible
both in substance and form with her dignity, the Em-
peror has no doubt that the states of the confederation
will repel such pretensions, whencesoever they may
proeeed, as contrary to the loyal sentiments they are ani-
mated with, as likewise to the true interests of Ger-
many.
The Emperor thinks that in return for the deference
with which he has accepted the prayers addressed to
him, he has a right in. all justice to demand of them a
neutrality maintained with all firmness and perseverance,
such as was proclaimed at the commencement of the
present contest.
Receive, &c.,

D. NESS ELR ODR.
