Letters from st. Petersburg state that the En-

by Prince Menschikoff.
[PdriS (Jne 2OJ Correspondence df the London Post
The programme of the present Cabinet of Russia,
as understand it, is chiefly occupied by PROPOSE
tions to advance education and create a middle
Glass; to build railways, no doubt for military as
well as civil service. This policy is opposed chiefly
by the old Russian party at Moscow, and which
party is headed by MenschikOif. The old German
party, represented by Court Ncsselrode and
Count Alderberg, has not much influence. What
ever may be the results of the present Cars policy,
Russia really seems to be endeavoeing to lay the
foundation of new system of administration quite
opposed to that in which the Emperor Nicholas
had so much faith
The foreign relations of Russia may be thus re-
sumed. She is on the very worst terms with Aus
trla, and on the very best footing with France
England is by no means popular, and Russia threat
ems to make any alliance hostile to the interests of
Great Britain. There is ample proof in the COM
munication before me Of Russian activity in Tur-
key. Here is a remarkable passage: at is not the
policy of Russia at the present moment to create
any actual revolt in the dominions Of the Sultan
but she will not neglect any occasion to court pOpu
larity with the Christians of the East Thus she
will defend the union of the prncipalities in Paris
in order that her views may be printed in the pro-
tocols which will be given to the world. Russia is
preparing to absorb Turkey in Europe, but not
with arms" These views come from one who
knows well the position of affairs and parties at St.
Petersburg.
The Russian steamer Wolga left Antwerp two
days ago for st. Petersburg, with a full cargo of

war have received orders to leave Cronstadt, and
proceed to the Mediterranean.
