"Powers with regard to the treaty Of I'd OF December
"lss4, end especially any document communicated
"to tie Russsn Government concerning the interpre-
citation put by the British and French Governments
con the -Four Poins-not for negotiation but for sc-
"ceptapoeP
Lord. j. Russell could not cay whether or not the
correppoudence could be laid on t,eiable. He would
however, state, generally, what had occurred with
rsptct TO the Four Points. In this state the question
stands at present, namely: At the end Of November
the Russian Government through their Minister al,
Vienna declared their acceptance of what are called
the -Four PoiDts On the I'd Of December treaty
was signed by France, England and Austria
and on the 2sth of December a meeting was
held by the Ministers Of France, England and
Austria, at Vienna, with Prince Gorchskoh
the NJ mister Of Russia. At that meeting the
French Minister read on the part of his own Govern
ment and Of the Governments Of England and Aus
tra, the Interpretation which these three Powers put
on the Four Points and which should be considered
az the ba,s Of negotiation. will mention only said
Lord j. Russell that with respect to the third point
it was proposed in thatnterpreaton to put an end to
the preponderance of Russia n the Black Sea Prince
Gorchak off stated that he would not agree 70 the pro-
pestd Interpretation OF the Four Ponts but tn he
would request further instructions from his Govern
meut len days afterward be informed Count Buol
that he had received those instructions, and on the
9TH or 9Th Of January another meeting was held at the
Office of the Austrian Minister for Foreign Afsirs and
al that meeting Prince Gorcbakof read memoran-
dunn which be sad he had received and which con-
tained the views Of his Government. 1t was replied,
BY Count Buol, Lord Westmoreland, and Baron de
Bourqueney, that they had no authority to receive
any such memorandum, and that they must require,
as the basis Of negotiations the consent OF the Rus
elan Plenpoentiary, to the Interpretation Of which
he had already received information. TIE Russian
Plenipotentiary, as Lord Westmoreland states in his
dispatch, then Withdrew the memorandum he had
read and declared the acceptance the part Of bis
Government, Of the communicated Interpretation as
the basis of negotiations. My honorable friend
said Lord j. RusselD wnl understand that the Rus
sian Government, in accepting that Interpretation
as the basis Of negotiations, Of course reserve
to themselves the power, when the basis
is laid down in articles, to make any objection which
they may think ft. The British Government de.

upon the basis mentioned, but no powers given 10
