result. All the proposals Of the two Ambas-
sadors have produced no effect on the Refs

iiOn but nothing favorable was expected, by
the Europeans at C0nstantin0ple, as the re-
suit Of the deliberations OF that august body,
either on the subject Of Greece or Of the war
with Russia. The two Ambassadors have
been presented to the Sultan and have per-
sOnally enjoyed the most friendly reception.
The Sultan has resolved to employ all his
