THE EASTERN QUESTION.
WHAT LORD SALISBURY THINKS
OF THE CONGRESS-.
THE POLICY OF ENGLAND sUs.
tanned.

LONDON, July l6. An official despatch from
the Marquis of Salisbury to the minister. who re-
lshed:
Lord Salisbury says the notifications obtained
at The congress are very large, affect almost all
the articles OF the treaty and have recovered large
territory for the sultan. tending to assurs the sta
bilily aud independence of Turkey.
The despatch combats the allegation that the
government had policy indicated in Lord Sails
burys circular of January 4th, for this purpose.
II compares point by point the policy indicated by
the circular with the decisions adopted by the con-
gress The comparison shows the object of Brit
ish policy, namely, prevention of Russian pre-
ponderance has been substantially attained.
Lord Salisbury especially points to facts that
pecnnisry Indemnity as been altogether exclud-
ed from the treaty of Berlin, the congress having
declined to revise the arrangement which being
no IN fraction of the treaty of Paris, was within
the competence of two independent powers 70
conclude.
The result Of the declaration made BY the Rus
SLAMS in the congress, that they would neither
claim territory in lieu of the indemnity nor pre-
JUDGE the claims of the other creditors Is that the
payment Of the indemnify is postponed to an in
definite period.
Lord Salisbury concludes: Whether use will
be made Of this probably the last opportunity OBJ
tanned Tor Turkey by interpositon Of the powers,
and particularly by England, depends ON the sin
cerity with which Turkish statesmen now address
themselves to the duties Of good government and
reform.
