The North German Correspondent, In its latest
number (NovemDer 25l, has the following leading
article:--
There Is an important difference between the OBJ
lgatIOus 10 the Porte which have been undertaken
by England France and Austria and those Of the
other Powers that signed the peace OF Paris In the
preamble Of the treaty. and IN its seventh article the
Independence of the Porte and the integrity OF the
Ottoman empire are guaranteed. The Cabinets OF
Londsn, Vienna and Paris undertook further oblga-
items ana for this purpose the treaty OF the l5h OF
April 1850 was concluded. According to the latter
document the Powers which signed 1t engaged, net
only in Article l., to support the independence and
integrity OF the Turkish empire bus, In Article IL,
to consider the violation OF any stipulation OF the
Treaty OF Paris OF 3Oh OF March, 1861 as cdsus
6euf The great difference between these two trea-
ties Is obvious. Italy, Prussia and Russia have not
like the other Powers, guaranteed the neutrallza
ten of the Black Sea. They are not therefore al
fected by the question whether the steps taken by
Russia to put end to the neutrality OF these wa
ters isrI> cdsuS belt not as neither the lndepen-
dence OF Nhe Porte nor the integrity OF the Ottoman
empire IL threatened. Italy and Prussia therefore
occupy the same position with respect to the Peace
oil Paris OF the both OF March, 1885, which Is taken
up by any Power that signs collective treaty.
