RUSSIA CONSENTS TO NEGOTIATE.
The grand of the week is that Russia agrees to
negotiate on the terms proposed by the allies.
The first announcement made from Vienna by
telegraph to the London Times in the foil ,wng words
Russia accepts the allied propositions uncondiona IT,
This is auth entic.
This despatch caused immense sensation. The
funds three per cent and cotton farthug In
the other markets panic reigned
Next day the government published despatch from
Minister Seymour at Vienna as follows:--
Russia agrees to accept the allied proposals the
basis OF negotiation.
This qualified announcem ent curbed the excitement,
and aarmists begin fear that Russia merely seeks
gsin time by deceptive negotiations Meantime funds
remain steady Previous TO the above announcement
the Vienna papers represented the state of affairs
most serious unexpected and alarming, and that all the
resonn Of the Austrian Embassy had received orders
to quit st. Petersburg, and the Russian Embassy
ordered to leave Vienna.
The actual circumstance that when Count Ester
hazy handed to Count Neserodc at st. Petersburg the
Austrian allied note of December 3D. he said that he
not authorized to enter into discussion, but if the note
was not accepted Internationally before January 1sh
be and all the Austrian embassy must leave st. Peters
burg To prevent this Count Nesselrode communicated
with Vienna direct, and January 11th Prin,e Gortscha
kof produced memorandum expressing a general
general inclination on the part OF Russia to negoate
but proposed certain alterations in the programme.
Count Buol formally received the document ne1t day
FRIDAY the 12th), but nasmuch 1t did not contain
acceptance, pure and SIMPLE OF the propositions Austria
could make reply without the Of France
and England. The Ambassadors Of those Powers
accordingly sent to Paris and London, and
ceived for reply that the Western Powers hsd
motive to give up = decision which had
already been carefully considered; and FURTHER that
by January l8th Russia did not accpt the ultimatum,
Count Esterhszy and the Austrian Legation would
st. Petersburg and Austria would Immediately seek to
obtain the armed cooperation Of the Germanic Diet
sgainst Russia
During the week that elapsed between Russia's
first and second reply intense apprehe nsion
existed in Vienna, although without sufficient
cause, for the Austrian Cabinet had taken the
precaution to notify the Western Powers that
standing the rupture Of diplomatic relations Austria
would not be in position to hostilties this
year. On the 10th all apprehensons ses at rest
by the above stated that Russia agrees
to negotiate on the terms proposed.
There is very little other news.
