The mornings news shows but little
change In the position OF the eastern
question, as General Ignatieif only ar.
rived at st. Petersburg from Vienna
yesterday evening, and the effect OF
his commun ications Ia yet unknown,
but special dispatch to Vienna from
Berlin, and dispatch from st. Peters.
burg TO the London Times, both state
simultaneously that there are some
grounds for expecting a renewal OF
congress negotiations Oh the basis pro-
posed by Prince Bismarck, that the
powers be invited to meet TO revise the
tactics OF 1855 and 1871. The identity
of this news at the same time and
the same character from the two capl.
tails where II would certainly be known
first, have given more hope OF its cor.
rectness than the form In which state,
ments are usually made public.
The Times st. Petersburg dispatch
gives the news very vaguely, and the
telegram merely says that such an idea
Is being ventilated at Berlin. The
matter Ia In itself not improbable, o.
such ar overture from Germany would
spare Russian susceptibilities, and the
congress, instead OF examining the
successive articles OF the treaty Of San
Stefano, might take the clauses OF the
Paris instrument as the starting point
of discussion, and determine how
much thereof may become obsolete by
events, and what should be put In lta
place. Such course would enable
Russia, ON the discussion OF each arti-
Gle Of the treaty Of Paris, to bring for
ward the stipulations Of the SanStefano
treaty, and defend them a. most suita'
BILE substitution for corresponding
claims OF the act o! 1855.
No authentic information OF such
proposal has yet been made from
any side however. The Agence Russo
yesterday says, II must be remembered,
after stating that General Ignatieffs
mission has not failed, as he was sim
ply instructed to give and receive
friendly explanations, In relation
to the attitude OF England: Russia
cannot do more than to facilitate the
meeting OF congress, and her means
of persuasion cease at a point where
the care for her dignity commences.
II Ia impossible that Russia will take
any steps or come to any decision
until General Ignatiefi has reported.
