oMINoUa RUMoRs FROM THE EAST.
LONDON, September.9.
Extreme agitation reigns in Constantlnople.
where it is alleged to have BEEN ascertalned
that Russia and Austria are negotiating with
view to the partition of Eastern Europe and OF
the Turkish Empire. The Russian fleet in the
Black Sea exceeds the limits set BY the treaty
Of Paris, aud there is the greatest activity In
the Austrian dock-yards at Pola and Trieste.
WHAT FRANCE WILL ACCEPT.
II ia the impression here IN high othclal
circles that France will accept any terms snort
of the dismemberment Of her territory, IN re-
fusing which she is supported by Russia, 1t IS
believed the Republican government Will con-
sent to pay large Indemnity, to odlsmantle the
standing army. The latter, indeed. she will
be bounl in any event to do, ia order to re-
cover the finances Of France. More than this,
| am assured 10 the highest quarters, will not
for moment be conceded II Prussia should
insist on the cession OF Alsace aud OF Lorraine.
or even of Metz and Strasbourg. the war will
assume new and most terrible character.
The general feelinS in London ls that Germany
has military right to demand the expenses OF
the war, with reasonable guarantees for her
future security; but that she has no right to
attempt to degrade and humi!late France. 1t
is quite certain that If she attempts 70 90 TINS
shc will be met by one Of the most forrnida Bile
Ao
MN can pre dict the issues OF the coDhlct. d.
Nv special kilograms from Berlin inform me
that King William has given strict orders 10
all civil and military authorities 10 treat the
Emperor Napoleon IN all respects as the ruling
sovereign OF France. The meaning OF these
orders ie that the King Of Prussia, who began
his clreer by suppress,nS the republic IN Ger.
msay. hates the republic in France. 1t is even
alleged that his Majesty has informed Count
Bismarck peremptorily that he will permit
nothing to be SAID to him about treating With
the Republican government.
WHAT KING WILLIAM DEMANDS.
From the same source I am assured that
King William treats with utter contempt the
notion set abou; by the German press that
% Prnspa T will. demand Asace and Lorraine.
The King has made up his mind. it is said, to
insist only on ample security for the payment
Of the expenses Of the war, and upon the res
tora.iop Of the Imperial government. Il 10 be-
heved hat great impression has b2en made
upon the mind of the King by the decided
language of the Russian government.
WHAT OFFICIAL ENGLAND THINKS.
The belief here in official qulrters Is that
Pars will surrender upon the FIRST summons
after the investment is even partially compile
ted. Private kilograms here assure us that
the well-to-io populalica are fearfulIy alarmed
by the attitude Of the more dangerous classes,
and that thousands of the bourgeo!sie are
ready to make peace on almost any terms, IN
order to avoid the possibility Of popular out
breaks within The walls. 1 am bound to say
that have seen no confirmation Of all this in
the appearance OF PAWS.
THE TEMPER CT PARIS.
