,he r.,-esen.stives of Russia at the chief foreign
Courts dated St. Petersburg, Dec %. In this note II
is stated that Russia accepts the third point rea-
tive to the naturalization of the Black Sea, in the
following sense: That Turkeys right TO close the
Straits be maintained that no ships OF war De admit
ted in the Black Sea excepting those OF Russia and
Turkey; that the number of ships to be maintained
be mutually arranged by Russia and Turkey, and that
il be ratified by direct special treaty between these
two Powers without the interference OF otner nations
This INTERPRETATION the Allies consider 10 DE inadls-
sible. .,., IT,.
lie Nord publishes analysis OF this circular; Ine
circular owns that the desire expressed by the Empe-
ror of the French at public solemnity in favor OF
prompt and durable peace, was at the same time ana
Still il the dearest wish of the Emperor Alexander
Referring to the Vienna Conferences the Circular casts
upon the Allies the blame of having rendered them
abortive. SO long as his enemies resolved 20 suosu-
tute force for the spirit of Justice and conclaon tne
Car was obliged to remain SILENT but es soon as ne
hoard that his enemies were disposed to take up again
the negotiations the basis OF the -Four Pont
he did not hesitate to come forward iranky 10 meet
tbose pacific dispositions and to seek frankly possible
solution for the Third Point. The Russian propositions
are already known. The circular concludes by saying
that Russia camlyand confidently awaits the decion oi
her enemies When Austria and the western fo"ers
agreed on the conditions to be SENT they were 10 CON-
municate to the other Powers what those terms were
Until these terms should have reached theu uestha-
ton, secrecy was to be kept. ,,
The Journal des Debdts says: IL Is expected that
the reply of Count Nesselrode viii be IN conformity
with the declarations contained in his circular of De-
cember o. Our correspondents at Berlin do not ex-
pect that Count Esterhazys mission will have sue
cessfu issue. They think it very likely, however,
that the EpbaSsador may deter TO his Government,
and demand new instructions before taking decisive
and irrevocable steps Nothing gives reason to be-
lieye that Russia abandons the ground upon which
she has hitherto persisted in taking her stand We
are assured that she would rather incur the risk OF
third campaign than do so.
L., al
26th and the day laid the propositions before the
Russian Cabinet On the 2Sth, Count Buo comnuni-
Gated to Prince Gorchakof at Vienna, the terms on
which the Western Powers would assent to peace and
stated that those terms were approved by Austria
The terms are those already published. Russia has
made known in Nesserodes circular, her Willingness
to treat for the naturalization OF the Black Sea, but It
s expected that she will absolutely refuse to assent to
the requirement of cesson of territory" to keep open
the Danube. BY the phrase cession OF so much terri
tory necessary To secure to all nations the hee nav
igaton of the Danube" is meant the cession of that
part of Bessaraba which lies between the fortress OF
Chotqu on the north, Salt Lake Sasyk on the SOUTH
and the River Pruth on the west. Three weeks from
the day of delivery is the time allowed for considera
tion.
Notwithstanding all appearance it is strongly sus-
pected that Austria will not take the field against Rs-
the Spring unless previously assured OF the active
support of the Germanic Bund.

touching the Third Point has been added to the treaty
II does not bewever impose on Austria the obligation

Russia to accept the Third Point as interpreted by
Austria and the Allies.
Letters from COnstantnOple state that the Austrian
Government has made satisfactory explanation to

petition
