HOW KARs WAS SURRENDERED.
A COUNCIL or WAS AT PARIS.
sYaFDoN ABOLISHED IN THg PRINCPALTrIE

The Atlantic arrived here a, O'Clock yesterday a.
ternoon from Liverpool. We have dates TO the lore
noon of Saturday the goth ut The Atlantic arrived
out at O'Clock on the morning of Sunday, the 23d
The news brought by the Atlantic is interesting, but
not of profound Importance. We may say it consists
wholly of rumOrs. The peace negotiations remain in
sfatu quo Count Esterhazy has reached St. Peters
burg but the result of his mission cannot be knownfr
some tme-say until the second week in January.
Austria has made known TO Prussia the contents Of the
Western proposals. and has urged Prussia to press their
acceptapce ON Russia The Cabinet of Berlin is re-
ported to have listened to the request and TO have an
unusually finn tone in recommending Russia TO receive
the proposition The smaller States OF Germany have
also sent Special Envoyin the person OF NJ Seosch.
the Minister of Saxonyto ST. Petersburg TO add the
weicht of their recommendation Rumor asserts posi-
tiyely that Denmark is about TO embrace the Allied
cause and to conclude treaty on the same basis as
that recently negotiated by Sweden II is said how
ever that in the event OF Russas refusal TO accept
the suggestions thus universally urged, Austria viii
not at once take so extreme step as 10 oreah on
ap,op,atic relations but will recall her Special En-
WOW. Meanwhile the terms of the Western propo
sit;ops are kent mvsteriously secret but whss-
pered TO BE- merely the neutrality OF No
Black Sea- remodelng Of the Government
of the Prncpalties freedom Of the navigation OF the
Danube. and in other respects almost the status 2so
ante bellum On these terms Russia is believed to be
willing to resume conference. But an item OF serious
difficulty stands in the way: The question OF indemnity
for the expenses of the war. Lord Palmerston abeo-
lutey insists on Russia paying indemnity and Il sd
set on this point that he will resign office If unable To
carry it against his colleagues. Napoleon expresses
himself as indifferent whether indemnity be paid or
not. Turkey obstinatey insists with England on be-
inc repaid by Russia. Austria declares the PROPOSE
ton 10 be monstrous and has given notice that II IN
demnity be demanded from Russia Austria will de-
mand payment from the Allies for preserving the Prin-
cipalties Russia of course, Indignantly refuses to
nav the first cent Napoleon is reported to be desirous
of summonng Congress of nations, wherein he would
reign lord paramount.
We have full details of the fall of Kars but very
confused accounts of the operations that have followed
that event There is nothing from the Cnmea.
counei of war to be held at Paris 10 decide on
new plan OF campaign.
