LONDON, Sept 11.-In the interview be.
tween Earl Derby and the delegation this
afternoon, member of the Deputatior
asked Earl Derby what chance there was
for the adoption of Midhat Pashas consti.
tute and reforms, to which bis Lordship
replied that he did not know what were
Midhat Pashas proposals, he was aware
that that statesman had very liberal ideas
about reforming the Ottoman administra-
tion, but was not aware of the character OF
his project, even if he knew 1t he would not
be prepared to say anything about it with

Europe is swiftly undergoing menacing

warned Turkey, theatens to become a
reality he said with startling force, that
renewal of the outrages would be more
disasterous to the porte than the loss of a

little whether they should afterward prove
exaggerations, the Russian people seem
approaching state of popular excitement,

It's present limits, there are diplomatic
signs which might warn Turkish rulers how
narrow is the foothold on which they must

astuteness they will seize any expedient that

BELGRADE, Sept. 11.-There is little
