rzw- The Courri<rdes Eats URis-avery Sagacious
observer Of European affairs considers that the con-
aience in peaceful solution OF the Eastern question,
was very much shaken at the departure of the last
steamer The impression had gained ground and
was being generally entertained-though traceablc
IN no official source-that Russia would accede TO
the proposition Of England and France except the
following conditions: l. That re shall be reimburs
cd by the Porte all the expenses incurred by Il in
v.son OF the Prncipalities 2. That she shall have
the tight to occupy those provinces until she is re-
imbursed L. That the English and French fleets
shall first leave the Port of Besika The Courier
regards these conditions who ly inadmissible-and
that il insisted on, they must lead to a rupture.
That there is great difficulty to final and salts
factory settlement it infers from the speech Of Lord
John Russell, which we published yesterday 1t I'M
dcrscores certain passages in that speech which it
considers significant of future trouble. Lord John
said that o all preparations for rar, the best is to
exhaust every means to obtain peace" "Negota-
tons have hardly had commencement" ~ the ne
potations do not terminate satisfactorily, the Govern
ment had confidence in the patriotism of the people
&c. He also declared, that the demands of Prince
Menschikof were inconsistent with the independence
of Turkey" From which it is to be inferred, that
the proposition submitted by EuEtah =
does not in terms or substance yield those demands
and the Car on his side has protested most solemny
that he will be content with nothing less.
The London Times which leans enough to Russia,
and is vehementy opposed to war, declares emphat-
cally, that there can be adjustment without the
immediate evacuation of the Provinces-and that too
without reference to the combined fleet at BeSika If
Russia is to be first reimbursed for her invasion Of
the Turkish provinces that will have to be done by
France and England; for the Porte is not able to pay
for for mer occupations.
The only question then is of fact; whether
Russia insists on the conditions mentioned Il she
does there is no alternative for war, except the most
shameless backing on the part of England and
France
The Paris "AsseRJlee rationale" which has been
gussianized and only speaks Russian agents die
tate says that the Gar has not taken resolution
respecting the propositions submitted to him-that he
is waiting hear what reception his last proposition
had met with at Consantinople. That the confidence
IA, pesee tras nerer stronger hdH IL is at is time a.
s., Peters6aey. As the Gar has been saying one
thing and doing another since this whole aarbe-
gan hi pacific assurances have to be regarded
as indicative of war.
