The Eastern War.

The Eastern situation remains substan-
TALLY unchanged, though for the moment the
tide seems setting slightly against Russia.
The British government has sent circular to
the general European governments covering
the questions in dispute. It is one of the
most important documents brought out by
the present diplomatic struggle. 1t clearly
explains why England refused to join in the
congress on the terms proposed by Russia,
aud contains an authentic definition of her
position in the existing emergency. In short,
il takes exception to each and every article
and particular of the San Stefano treaty,
which has already been signed by the bellig-
erent parties and which formed the basis of
the cessation of hostilities Full discus
sion of the British circular at the Austrian
court calls out considerable sympathy for
England, the press of Vienna declaring that
she is championing international rights.
Something of the same sentiment is also
manifest in Berlin. Bismarck is credited
with intimating that Russia is going too far
in her opposition to England's requests.
Meanwh lie the increasing dissatisfaction of
Austria finds expression in proposition for
compromise, which is but a repetition of her
shameful ACKNOWLEDGMENT of Poland. The
proposition is this First, Russia to seek
territorial compensation in Asia Minor !;
second, TO divide European Turkey into
three parts, namely, the northern, western
and southern, each part to be granted auton-
omy and administrative reforms, the north
ern section of Bulgaria north of the Balkans
TO be under the patron lge of Russia, the
western section, Bosnia, Herzegovina and
Albania, under the patronage of Austria
the southern ection, including the Thessaly
Epirus and Roumelia, under Greek auton-
omy and under the special patronage of
England; all the European powers to guar
antee this autonomy; third, the status ex-
listing before the war to be maintained on
the questions of the straits and the Danube.
But Austria will find it is too late in the day
to revive her old game Of dismembering and
pieceing out independent nationalities with
out allowing the people interested some voice
in their destiny.
With England and Austria in a hostile
attitude toward the San Stefauo treaty, and
the position of Germany uncertain, Russia
is in very embarrassing situation. She is
busy studying the English circular, and her
reply is looked for with intense interest. 1t
is not easy to foresee the outcome of events
but probably Russia will issue an ultima
'um, or document designed to call forth
one from the other powers, and then the
Nuscovite will be given an opportunity to
back down or fight. 1t is the opinion of the
st. Petersburg correspondent of the London
Times that he will fight. All accounts agree
that both the court and the people of Russia
ire in an extremely warlike mood. Mean
while preparations for the worst are going
on in England, Russia and Austria.

The British Navy.

In speaking of the prospects of England
tons, great stress is always laid upon the
magnificent fleet of war vessels which she
possesses, and the strength which she could
thus WELD upon the seas everywhere. Pow
erfu indeed is her navy, and it would be
difficult for any nation to cope with her
upon the ocean, but recent discussions in
the House Of Commons show that perfect
satisfaction and confidence is not felt in the
way in which these splendid ships are built
The London Times last year two or three
times astonshed the English public by de-
claring that a ship then constructing at a
cost of S2,600000 and designed to be the
most powerful war vessel atloat was so mod
eled as to possess the least amount of sta
bility possible, and the running out of her
guns at time when the waves were rolling
high, or a sudden effort to turn in an angry
sea, would result in her being capsized, es-
pecially if she had been injured in the un-
