Salisbury's criticisms of the San Stefano
treaty. 1t says England will hardly remain
alone in the opinion, that the treaty of Paris,

therefore has no choice between war or parting
with tho treaty of San Stefano, as she would
have to do if she entered the congress.

st. Petersburg that the direction of foreign af-
fairs has practically passed into the hands of
Gen. Ignatieff. Russia continues to purchase

plan for revival of the congress- a scheme
which Russia momentarily considered.
correspondent at st. Petersburg telegraphs
As the text of Lord salisbury's circular is not
yet received, Russia has not decided upon an
answer. But there is reason to believe she
will not regard the circular as having anything
if the nature of an ultimatum, as the British
government confines itself to purely negative
criticism. 1t may possibly be asked to suggest
some solution of it's own. 1t is argued that
of the English cabinet really desires to
avoid war, some pacific solution may
still be found. The public regard the circular,
however, as new proof that England has de-
cided upon war, while in the official world, it ia
said, although the circular is not pleasant
reading for those who desire peace, it has the
advantage of intelligibility,
special from Athens says the circular has
aroused enthusiasm there.

A special from Eucharist says despite the

Vienna correspondent hears that Count
Andrassy, recognizing the difficulty of assem-
bling congress-, is preparing for common &C
ton with England. The consequences of Gen.
Ignatieff's report at St. Petersburg on the re-
suit of his mission, however, yet remain to be

LONDON, April 3.-A London correspondent
of the Manchester Guardian calls attention to
the significance of a Vienna dispatch which
published here yesterday simultaneously
with the appearance in Vienna of dispatch
making similar statement, which was tele-
graphed from London to the Political Co,yes-
po1sdence. The statement is to the effect that
the Austrian government informed Gen.
lgnatieff that it required alterations to be
made in the peace preliminaries, and that such
alterations should be made with the concur
renee of the other powers. There is, therefore,
no, prospect of England being isolated.
and the action OF the Vienna
of peace. The fact that this statement appear
ed at the same time in the Eastern Budget
and Political Correspondence, both journals
semi-otfcial in character adds to it's significance.
The Political Correspondence reviewing Lord
salsburys circular considers that in the last
resort the attitude of Austria and England will
inevitably lead both to the same issue if q
congress does not meet, England will take
measures for protecting her interests which
would, however, by no means inevitably cause
war.
AUSTRIA AND ENGLAND AGREED,
LONDON, April S.-The Times, in leading
editorial article says: The main fact iu the
present posture of affairs is that Austria and
England are one in their views of the treaty of
San Stefano, and of the only means by which,
without war, it can be brought into harmony
with the just claims of the other powers. The
public opinion of Europe is with them, and ii
they act together with frmness and loyalty
