ENGLAND AND Russia.
Prince GOrtsCha n X OFFS eu v tn U.nrd Der1,,

PARIS, June 8.--The communication which
Russia sends to London Is not @ note, in @
diplomatic sense, but letter from Prince
Gortschakof in reply to the letter of Lord
him to st. Petersburg
In his letter, Lord Derby drew the atten-
ton OF Russia to various points where Eng
lish interests would be affected if Russian
action extended 50 far. They were mentioned
in Mr.. Cross's speech in Parliament and are
the Suez Canal, and Egypt, Constantinople,
Dardanelles, and Persian Gulf The Princes
letter successfully takes up these points and
explains that Russia does not mean to inter-
fere with any one of them. Prince Gortscha-
and commercial importance of the Suez
Canal, and gives the most positive as
surances that Russia does not intend in
any way to touch it. Russia, indeed, thinks
herself entitled, as q matter of right, to carry
the war into Egypt, but explains. that any
action in that direction has never been even
taken into consideration. This is even more
the case as regards the Persian Gulf Russia
thinks that so important a maritime passage
as are the Dartlanelles must always be regll-
lated by international agreement, and not by
one power alone She disclaims any intention
OF acquiring ConstantinOple though at the
same time she could not consent to it's pos
session by any other Christian power.
The communication is silent as regards the
temporary occupation of Constantinople,
which may become necessary and ensue In
the course OF RusSia's military achievements
The letter goes on to say that Russia has re-
NAMED true to her programme in aiming sole
Iy at improving the condition of Christians
in Turkey, which can only be done by coerc-
ing the Porte. AS soon as Russia has achieved
this, she will fall back on the resolutions Of
the Constantinople conference, and contend
1or such guarantees as will insure the efficacy
OF the reforms asking the powers to take uD
the thread where it was broken by dissolution
OF the conference.
