Expectation is on tiptoe to learn the issue OF
the peace propositions Rumors Of all sorts
are flying about, but the real truth is that
nothing can be known for some time. The
term allowed for the decision Of Russia has
been extended to the 18th Of January, and
therefore no reliance can be placed upon
these rumors Nevertheless Berlin and Wen
ma correspondents report that sdvices have
already been received in those cities which
intimate that the Crar will make no further
concessions.
On the other hand conferences were in ses-
sion at st. Petersburg discussing the proposals,
attended by Counts Nesselrode and Rsterhs-
zey, Seebach and SOmmer.
The Independence Beige publishes the tex,
Of the Allied proposals.

neither accept nor reject the propositions, but
will send Count Staxelberg to Vienna with
counter proposals.

peace.

and has no connection with the Swedish ALI
ance.
