heightened observations put question 10 the Gov
emment with view 10 ascertain the state Of British rsla
tons with the Ottoman Porte The particular questions no
wished to as wtrs-Whether the English and French Am
bassadoTs at ConsaDnople at this moment acting in
concert together il that the whether there would
be any difficulty the part Of the Government 20
ncats the House the general scope and tendency Of the
n,trucons which the Ambassadors were now fulfilling in
CoDstantinOple.
Lord J. Russell in reply said that some time ago the
British Government were informed by the Russian Gov
eminent that the Emperor had dispatched special mission
TO Constsntnope in order to obtain confirmation Of the
concessions which had been made in other times 10
beers OF the Greek church 60 the holy places In Jeruss
lem. Her Msjesty's Government informed, al the
same time that the Emperor OF Russia had occasion 70
complain that former concessions had either been modi
fed Withdrawn and that be felt NECESSARY 10 have
some security that those concessions should not be with
drawn but Of what nature that security would be the Rus
sian Government had not specially stated 10 the British.
The Russian Ambassador arrived at COnstantnopls, and
certain circumstances occurred which induced the Grand
Nezierto and he
y applied to Colonel Rose for the presence Of the English
feet but Admiral Dundas did not leave Malta and sfter
ward Colonel Rose sent steamer TO Malta 10 Admiral
Dundas to say that the presence Of the eet not
cessary Admiral Dundas exercised wise discretion. and
Colonel Rose perfectly justified in sending the second
order TO the Admiral Negotiations proceeded Lord
Shatford de Radcliffe arrived at COnstsntnope, aud
enabled materially TO assist IN enabling Prince henschl
koh to obtain declaration which considered sufi.
ceDt and TO which the French Ambassador offered no
material objections II was hoped IN London and In other
CouTsthat the matter being settled the mission Of Prince
NeDschikoG would terminate but appeared that other
proposals which Prince MenschkO according b instruc
lions made TO the Turkish Government such that,
although in the opinion Of the Russian Government they
than necessary in order 10 secure the
fu6ment Of the declarations Of the Porte with regard 10
the Holy Places were in the opinion Of the Turkish Gov
eminent and Of her Maestys Ambassador at Constant
NOBLE and Of the Ambassador Of France Of nature which
could not but be considered dangerous 10 the ndepen
deuce of the Porte and infringing the stpulaons TO
which all the great powers agreed in 1915. The last dis
matches from CoDsannOple were 10 the 9th instant lie
could however state that there had been the most perfect
concert and concurrence OF views between her Msietys
ambassador COnstaDtnope and the ambassador Of the
Emperor Of France lie should say further, that ia the
present state Of the negotiations would not be consistent
With the good Of the public service produce the nsruc
tons under which Lord Suatiord de Redcie had acted
but il would be the policy OF Government TO maintain
inyOsble the faith Of treaties and the integrity and nde
pendence Of the Porte In conclusion he trusted that the
Russsn Government would require other securities from
the Turkish Government than was compatible with tho
maintenance Of the Sultan and the integrity Of the Porte
