TELEGRAM TO TINE NEW YORK HERALD.
The following special despatch to the
HERALD has been received from our CORE
spondent in the capital Of Great Britain =
t LONDON, June 10, 1872.
Earl Granville Her Majesty's Secretary of
State for Foreign Affairs, seconded by the
italian government, has proposed the convoca-
ton Of conference of the great Powers to
project new course of policy to be adopted
by the Cabinets towards the East in view of
the constant recurrence of barbarous outbursts
of popular violence against the Jews in Rou-
mania, and to debate, also, the subject of the
propriety Of direct allied pressure on the
Rounqanian government to compel measures
for the executive repression of such acts or
action.
RUSSIA REPLY.
Prince Gortschakoff has replied to the Eng
lish note In the name Of His Majesty the En-
peror Alexander Of Russia. The Prince Chan
cellor states that the Emperor sympathises with
the prosecuted jews but apprehends, at the
moment when he gives his good wishes, that the
course for redress Of their grievances which is
proposed by the British Ministry will serve only
to excite an agitatation of the Eastern ques-
ton. Therefore, for this reason, the Emperor
Of Russia is unwilling to enter such con-
ference. His Majesty Alexander makes
proposition that, instead Of zach an assem-
blage, the Powers more Immediately interested
shall address joint note to the Roumanian
government demanding an explanation
Of its intentions and definition of
the guarantees which Prince Charles can
offer for the Protection Of the Jews in the fu-
t1re and, thus awaken the Bucharest executive
e q sense Of its official O. respon.slbillities
Should the Roumanian reply prove unsatis-
factory to the cosignatories of the note, the
Emperor of Russia would propose settle
ment of the difficulty on the basis of the
treaty Of 1853. -
PRUSSIA CONSENTS.
The Prussian government Emperor William
speaking as King Of Prussia, takes the same
ground as Russia.
THE OTHER POWERS.
The answers of the other Powers to the
Granville circular is not known, but it is
probable that they convey assurances of the
adoption of the suggestion offered by Prince
Gortschakoff
What Prince Charles Knows OF the
Isrnclite Case.
An English journal published the following let.
ter the authenticity of which is vouchcd for,
dated from Bucharest, on the Gath of Februa
last, with reference to the treatment OF the Jews
In the Danubian Principalities. The writer says
deputation of, Jews from Cahul reached me to-
day. / am engaged preparing their statement and
petition to the government on which to predicate
demand for their protection and naturalization.
The history they give IS far more heartrending than
that of Ismai. Their surerngs were horrible.
Language falls me to depict all they related.
Cahul is place OF 1000 souls, 1000 of whom
are Israetes. Suddenly the latter we're set upon,
and for three days beaten, wounded, plnndered,
driven out OF their homes, which were battered to
ruins, and forced to take refuge I'm the barracks,
where instead of being defended, they we're allowed
again to be beaten, and for several days kept with
out food The way along the street from many
Jewish houses to the barracks was marked with
blood Heads were split open, arms broken, boards
pucked out by the roots, hair torn from the scalp,
&c. One OF the delegation who thus gives me this
relation MR. A. Gold defended his house for three
days, his four sons standing by him. They had
thirty-eight rounds Of ammunition He made his
sons swear that, If he fell, they would continue to
fight. band or fifty men surrounded his house,
but the dastards burst not cross his threshold.
At length they were compelled to leave, as the
Williams commenced to build fires to burn
them out. He alone was robbed OF $50
Napoleons. The delegation fix the losses OF
the Israelites at 10000 ducats. they were COM
petely stripped OF everything, and their homes so
battered and ruined as to be strictly unrecognza-
BILE. The two synagogues were devastated and
turned into privles; Dephibin, Jalithm and prayer
books were scattered in all directions. The scrolls
of law were early removed for safety and hidden
away The Israelites of Gaatz, as soon as possible
sent or clothes and food, and the local authorities
gave a few piastres to some. One Israelite, the
neighbor OF Mr. Gold, whose house was likewise as
wounding another. The killed was Russian boy.
They not yet protected but exposed To assanlf,
and hundreds are lying in straw In ruined houses.
They say there is scarcely village In the whole OF
Bessarabian Roumania where there has not been
frightful scenes. The misery Is dreadful Help Is
needed Immediately.
