granted by the Sublime Porte to Russia which it said
due to it; and when, moreover the pressure put
upon Turkey by the two maritime Powers had ceased,
that the Emperor OF Russia would then order the with
drawa of his forces within his own territory The noble
Lord while he justly felt it to be his duty to question the
propriety of the first allegation which was made-name

place has publicly declared that is the determination
her Majestys Government not in any way submit to
the condition expressed in peremptory by
the Court of St. Petersburgh in the circular despatch ana
that they could not for moment in their management
of affairs, admit primary condition of the with
drawal of the Russian troops the withdrawal the
bined fleets from the Turkish waters The question wish
to put is this: that assuming do that the nego

have arrived at dead lock- and therefore believing in
that that great advantage to the public service would
arise from discussion of this important subject in both
Houses Of Parliament wish to know whether the noble
Lord will fix day which the motion of the honorable
member for Aylebury may be brought under the consd
Grafton of this House?
Lord j. RUSSELL Sir in answer to the question put
to by the right honorable gentleman, wish to refer

Russian troops. said that in the first place. because at
first sight IL did not appear to be so laid down in the cir

it unlikely that the Russian Government could think
themselves justified in demanding that the English and

them With regard to the question which the right hon
orable gentleman has put to me, have state that he
mistaken in supposng that the negotiations have
to dead lock. On the contrary, both the English and
French Governments have considered that there pro
positions which may be acceded to both by the Russian
and the Turkish Governments which may be the means
of obtaining pacific termination of these unfortunate
disputes Whether not these hopes may be justified
we cannot know immediately IL must take some time
before we learn from St. Petersburgh WHAT the view
taken there of any mode of settlement which England
France and Austria may have arrived on this subject
and while the matter is in state of negotiation do not
think it would be advisable that there should be any dis
cussion with respect to it in this House.
