In an official dispatch to his colleagues in
the Ministry at London, Lord Salisbury on
the day Of the dissolution of the Berlin
Congress summarized the results achieved
in that body as being in the highest degree
favorable to Turkey and as successfully car
i rying out England's policy in referenceit to
the prevention of Russian preponderancein in
the East. The fact is pointed out that the
question of pecuniary indemnity aswholly
excluded from the treaty Of Berlin, and that
Russia gave assurance that no attempt would
be mads 70 seenre territory in lieu of indem-
nifty, nor would the claims Of other creditors
be prejudiced Tby Russia's demand upon
Turkey for financial satisfactfon.' The effect
of this is, according to- Salisbury, that the
payment of Indemnity has been postponed
TO an indefinitely remote period.
Il Lord lBeaconsfield made q statement in
the House of Lords on the 18th, regarding
the policy of the English representatives in
the Berlin Congress, and explaining the
operations of the Treaty. He saidthat by
the setting aside Of the treaty of San Stefano'
menace to the peace OF Europe bad been
removed, threatened injury to the British
Empireterminated, and the Sultan repos-
sessed OF At~o-thifds Of his domlnions.
! Regarding the Austrian occupation of
| Bosnia, = which was earnestly sup
ported by, the. British representatives,
he said that Il was sanctioned solely as a
protection for Turkey, who was utterly un-
able to subdue the anarchical tendencies of
that and adjacent provinces. The Anglo
! Turkish conversation, under which England
had occupied the Island of Cyprus, placed
| England In position where she could pro-
tect, IL necessary, her Oriental Empire.
| The object of the convention was not mere
\ iyor chiefly military, but te produce peace
and tranquility, so as 70 open up to the
/ wealth and, enterprise of Europe what is
! really another continent. In reply to Lord
Beacons6eld, Lord Derby said he generally
approved Of what had been done in Europe
but questioned the value Of Cyprus. Ear
Granville thought that the interests Of
Greece had been disregarded, and also be.
lieved that Cyprus weuld not add to the
power Of defending the Suez Canal. The
debate was attentiveiy listened TO by the
Princess OF Wales and other members of the
tRoyalfamily. .
h, Gladstone has made a speech severely ar
raigning the Cabinet and denouncing ths
Berlin treaty. The convention with Tur'
key he calls an insane covenant, which ha:
alienated the friendship Of all foreign pow
ers. In conclusion he expressed the hop,
that the Ministry would soon be judged b,
an appeal to the country.

consfield the Order OF the Garter.
