LONDON, Nov. 90.-The feeling in
money circles is healthful. The Tele.
graph is enabled to promise that con-
ference On the Eastern question will GER
tainly be held in London. The Times,
this morning, urges King William, as the
| ally of England, to urge on the Car the
folly of his pretensions, which the civil
lized world refuses to tolerate.

position for conference on the Eastern

ernment is in receipt of addresses from
all parts of the empire, which show the

The Vienna View.
4 Dispatch dated Vienna, Nov. 29,
says that Bismarck's proposal for con-
ference was made after he had arrived at
previous understanding with Gortscha-
koff.
No orders have been given by the En-
peror of Austria for the formation of a
new cabinet.
Great quantities of corn have been
bought at the Danubian ports on account
of the Russian Government.
ROumania Disturbed.
The Russian circular has produced
great alarm in Bucharest. The govern
ment is helpless and turns on every side
for advice. An agent of the Porte had
arrived at Bucharest to propose an often
siVe and defensive alliance with the Sui
tan, on condition that the Roumania
troops shall be entirely at the disposal of
the Porte. Prince Charles hesitates to
side with Turkey against Russia on any
conditions.

ordered to Schoumla. The fortresses of
the Danube are being rapidly armed.

ed 10 Rouschsuk, Varna and Silestria.
A great number of horses have been
bought in Austria for Turkish cavalry.
The Turkish feet is ready for action IN
der Admirals Jorahim Pacha and Hobart
Pachs.
Prussta's Position Set Forth.
l am enabled to state, upon unques-
tionable authority, the position taken by
Prussia on the Russian question, and
which probably will be communicated to
the British Cabinet to day:
Prussia maintains that like Italy, hav-
ing signed one treaty on the 30th of
March, 1856, which was concluded as
mentioned in the introduction prefacing
the treaty, for the purpose of guarantee
ing the independence and integrity of the
Turkish Empire, she, like England,
France and Austria, who concluded an
additional treaty on the 18th of April,
1856, by which they bound themselves to
consider any infraction of any stipula-
ton of the treaty of the 30th of March as
a csusus belli, and obliged themselves to
| fight for the maintenance Of a clause TO
which great power cannot submit for
ever, and which does not in any way in
| fringe the principle of the first treaty.
So far as Prussia is concerned there
fore she does not regard Russia's posi-
ton as one threatening war, because the
st. Petersburg cabinet does not intend to
endanger the independence Or integrity
of Turkey. The statesmen of Russia de-
clared that any additional territory was
undesirable, and also relinquished the
idea of creating q Greek Empire at Con-
stantinOple under Russian ProtectOrate.
Neither do they intend to establish an
extensive naval arsenal on the coast of
the Black Sea- Under these circum-
stances it is confidently relied on, that by
diplomatic means, an understanding will
be arrived at by which the powers which
signed the treaty at Paris will sccsde to
the Prussian request regarding the neu-
tralization of the Black Sea. To this end
Prussia offers mediation.
A Tory Administration Coming.
LONDON, Nov. 30.-The talk in climbs
| favors the idea of Tory administration
succeeding the present Ministry. The
Euxine question approaches q peaceful
solution. 1t is confidently expected thai
the conference for its settlement will be
held at London. London is in q peaceful
mood, and all parties feel sure of peace
full result
The English Cabinet in a Stew.
LONDON, Nov. 30.-Herald Special

and nothing was done to-day. GoItscha'
koff's circular is still withheld from the
public. Prussia's conduct keeps England
in a tremor. Lowe, Bright and Cardwel
are ready TO keep the peace on any terms,
however humiliating. A breakup in the
Cabinet is imminent.

drawal from her present position. They
are unfounded.
England will be compelled to back
down from Granville's letter or fight.
BERLIN, Nov. 30.-Private adviceS
from Vienna represent that Austria, Eng
land and Italy accept the Prussian propo
sal for a conference with the understand
