Dresden, april 2l.-At length am able to
give you some information respecting the re-
suit Of the negotiations at St. Petersburgh,
which is sufficiently positive form 10 warrant
its authenticity. heard it from foreign d.
plomatist, who was sent to St. Peters5urgh, to
present the solicitations Of his Sovereign to the
Emperor Nicholas, and who has ustpassed
through our city on his return 10 his Court
This Ambassador had an opportunity to make
himself acquainted with the diplomatic docu-
ment; the contents Of which am going TO COM
municate to you.
tits the yLT1MATuM which has been signed
by Count Nesselrode, and Immediately forward
ed to Constantinople, to be delivered TO the
Porte by NJ de Minziachy, the Russian Charge
d'Affaires.
This ultimatum is the result Of the negotia-
tions of the Duke Of Wellington, and OF Lord
Strangforti, who have prevailed with Russia
to take this step, which will be enforced wiki
the Divan by MIR Stratford Canning.
In this note Russia demands urgently, and as
a condition sine qua non, the strict execution Of
the stipulations of the treaty of Eucharist, and
Of the other treaties which preceded it, and
served as its basis II dwells on its right Of
protection of the Greeks, whom those treaties
recognise, and in consequence demands an IN
Simultaneous suspension of hostilities in the Mo-
rea, in Livadia, and the other parts OF the con.
tinent Of Greece, which are now desolated by
war Finally, it declares, that 1t is necessary
that the Porte should give to Russia, and the
Powers it's allies, new ard durable guarantees Of
its pacific dispositions, and at the same time
that il should secure its Christian subjects "a
eainst all acts of oppression, which have been
the sole cause Of the instruction Of the Greeks.
If the Porte (this is the conclusion) begins
bv Welding to the demands now made, that is
to saw, if it Immediately withdraws its troops
from Waachia and Moldavia, and gives orders
for the cessation of the war in the Morea and
in Greece, Russia will send Minister Pleni-
potentiary to Constantinople, and treat with
the Porte conformity, and by the Intervention Of
the British Ambassador, and Of the Plenipoien-
tiaries of the other Christian Powers, respect
ing the aforementioned guarantees. But if il
refuses its assent, if it delays to declare ii So
lemnly without subterfuge or reservation, Rus

take vigorous measures to do justice to herself
and to Christian Europe.
The person from whom we received these
communications intimated to US, that the Rus
sian Cabinet had long hesitated TO take this
step, TO which it was led not only by the repre-
sentation Of the British Ambassadors, but the
wishes Of the whole Russian people The ne
gocia,ion had been much impeded by the ef-
forts of the Minister Of another great power to
counterfeit il, and Count Nesselrode himself
appeared but little disposed to enter into tine
views OF the British Plenipotentiaries. But the
latter having finally declared, that if Russia per-
sisted in the refusal England would be obliged
to act in conformity 10 its own particular inter-
est, the Russian Cabinet at length gave way
1t seems also that the other Power, which has
always shown itself so unfavorable to the cause
of the Greeks, desisted from its opposition as
soon as it was convinced that would be useless,
that il would not be able to hinder the resolu-
tons adopted by England ard Russia, and tina,
it would even risk all It's influence by persis,ing
in an opposition which, in case OF need, it would
not be able TO maintain by force.
At the moment when our informant depart
ed, the Grand Duke Michael was preparing for
journey, which he intended, as it was said, 10
make TO the southern provinces, where he will
visit the environments Of the great Russian ar
mics, commanded by Generals Sacken and
Wittgeas,ein
1t has been asserted here for some days past
that Prince Alexander Ypsilanti, WHO, it is well
known, has been confined for FIVE years in the
fortress Of Munga,ch, in Hungary, was at
length on the point of obtaining his liberty,
through the intercession Of the Russian Minis
ter at Vienna. 1t is added that the Prince will
fix his abode in our Capital, and that he has
already given notice Of it to Prince Cautacaze-
no, his countrymau, who has resided here for
some years.
