THE LATEST VIEWS OF THE GEAR OF RUSSIA
IIrom the St Petersburg Journal, March 81
We have just received report of the sitting of the
House of Commons of the 18th of February, and the
1t is not here the place to repeat brutal outrngcs
which every faithful servant of the Emperor will pre-
serve the recollection but which do not reach the august
person to whom they addressed We shall conGne

might be searched in vain for example of such intern

Minister but the nature of the determinations Of tho

From this has necessarily arisen that fatal dstrus
which in the Eastern question the origin Of all the
previous difficulties, and which will lead at last to the
most deplorable result
That such distrust may have been entertained by
France-that it may up to certain point have found
place in the mind OF government still recent which has
not had time to acquire by long experience of former
ations with it exact idea of real Intentions and
abandoning itself voluntarily to the almost traditional
opinion which has been formed Of Russian policy in the
Easthat may be easily conceived but tho part of
England which Is Of the anecedents and the cha
racer OF the Emperor from connection OF long date an
opinion of such nature justly excitoa surprise Less
than any other tho British Government should entertain
such suspicious 1t haa in its hands the written proof
that there is no foundation for them for long before

To these and increasing Of dissolu

from the affairs Of Montenegro the religious

the Austrian government considerable financial embar

Ambassador at Constantinople beginning to give
serious and menacng character. These complications,
which created sullen excitement among the Christian
population likely from day to another to bring
about sudden catastrophe which it urgent to pre-

subject of misunderstanding between Great Britain and
himself It seemed Of the highest importance to his Ma

the government Of Great Britain.
With this view the Emperor engaged the English Min
lister st. Petersburg to her Majesty to be inform
ed Of his ancpatons with respect to the danger more
less imminent that menaced Turkey. He requested
on this subject confidential interchange of opinions
with her Britannia Majesty That was certainly the most
evident proof Of confidence which the Emperor could give
10 the Court of ST. James, and thus did his Majesty most
openly signify his sincere wish to prevent any Interior d.
vergence between the two governments
Sir H. Seymour acquitted himself forthwith OF the inn
portant commission which the Emperor had impressed
him in a long and familiar conversation.
The result has shown itself In correspondence of the
most friendly character between the present English
Ministers and the imperial government.
