;FOREIGN •NOTES.
Tt3EZT AND GIIZEOE.
vas announced by telegraph that a proclamation
creek Government, " containing offensivelexpressions
Turkey,", had been addressed to the Hellenic
people. From a'portion of the text of thaedocument it
appears that 'Greece has, indeed, given in, but with the
worst ponsible grace. It affirms that the insurrection in
Cretehanbeen stifled by Turkey under cover of the
negotiationgprovoked by the ultimatum. Consequently,
the refusal to adhere to the declaration of the Conference
would involve Greece in a war for which neither the army
nor the navy is ready. • " Hence acquiescence on our part
is necessary for the time, but it in no way binds the
future of Greece." This proclamation, then, not onlz
recognises the Cretan insurrection as being fostered
at Athens, but clearly states that but for the
Turkish victory in the island Greece would not have
yielded. It is an angry protest; but, on the other hand, the
despatch of M. de Lavalette, which Count Walewski took
to Athens, was also a brusque affair, not at all calculated
to appease Greek vanity. It plainly told the Athens
Government that if it did not answer the Conference
within the term fixed its silence would be held as
a refusal. Altogether M. de Lavalette's writing contains
more of tbefortiter in re than the enariter in mode. Prince
Gortschakoff has stood the friend of Greece throughout.
Not only did he address the circular to the Russian agents
abroad, throwing the blame of the difficulty on Turkey,
but he urged the Government at Athens to accept the
declaration, hinting as his reason that Russia could not
lend any assistance. Turkey is about to reply to the
circular by a counter manifesto.
The New Free Press of Vienna states that all the Powers
represented at the Conference have been informed by the
Zaimas Cabinet that the declaration is accepted. The
reply which Count Walewski brings back expresses the
regret of the Greek Government that Rangabd refused to
take his seat at the Conference.

OTHER DIFFICULTIES IN THE EAST.

But the hydra-headed Eastern question is not yet done
with. No sooner has Greece been put down than other
States spring up in its place. The announcement that the
Republican party in Roumania is preparing to overthrow
the present Ministry by force is strengthened by further
intelligence in the Paris journals. These state that It con-
spiracy against the life of Prince Charles has been
divulged through the treachery of one of the conspi-
rators. Further, Russia and Prussia are about
to press the Porte to give up the seaport of
Spitza to Montenegro, and thus enable that State to com-
municate with the sea, from which it is at present shut
out by Ottoman territory. This, it appears, is the object
of the Prince of Montenegro's journey to St. Petersburg;
but it is hardly likely that the Porte will make such a
concession at the present time.
