THE PEACE RUMoRs.

The of peace as well as the pacific attempts

net hsd II is true declined acceding the proposition
made to 1t by Prussia in despatch Of the 18th of Sep
tcmber TO join her in pacific intervention The Journey
of A de Pokesch Paris with view to induce the En-
peror OF the French to negotiate, not attended
with success But towards the middle Of last month,
Count Baol spontaneously invited the powers
reopen conferences having peace for their object He pro-
posed that they should be held in Paris and in Wen

had received from Russia official formal Of

sa, TO whom she suggested the expedency Of treating
the basis of the four points and making concessions
the third few days ago, however, Russia had yet
returned reply to the Prussian communication

cnce with ST Peersbngh affirm that Count Nesseode bad
declared that Russia ready to join conferences

rights her territory Ii is very probable that
peace conferences will be opened in the month january
but Russia does not seriously desire peace they will be
attended with result for il s not to be supposed that
the western powers will admit the argument adduced by
Prussia in her despatch of the 18th Of Septembename

fall of Sebasopo requiring from Russia promise that
she Will only maintain limited number Of shipso n
the Black sea Russia having longer fleet in that
