in possession of Suzuki Kaeh on the Black Sea, yet
this seems TO be mistake they took Toprat haleh,
which is of less importance than the fortress and port

Mr. De LaCOur the French ambassador at Constan-
tnope has been recalled for having too eagerly sought
peace thus compromising the dignity of France The
Emperor expressed bis desire to the English Govern
ment that Lord Radcliffe should likewise be recalled,
since the ambassadors of the Western Powers should

sonal vanity to lower one another in Turkey Inc

Mr.. Meets, has left Berne for France it is said he

Ills scarcely possible that Lord Aberdeen should be
able to maintain his Premiership longer than during
the Parliamentary recess. He remains only because
be yet has some hopes of an arrangement as soon as
this hope yanshes that is to say after the first de-
feat of Russia which must make the war really war
