THE COMING CONGRESS-, AND WHAT THE GOV
ERNMENT WILL MAINTAIN AND REQUIRE.
LONDON, March 14.-The Chancellor to-
day said in the House that England had
agreed to go into the congress. He also
said he could not enter into details, but he
might say that in the congress each Power
would maintain liberty Of action. 1t was
not intended that the majority should bind
the minority. England will maintain her
views in the congress, and will require, be-
fore entering it, that every article Of the
treaty OF peate shall be placed before the
congress in such manner that the con-
gress can Judge whether the articles are to
be accepted or not.

gree by the demand for Bessarabia. The
disagreement on this point has become so

Parties heretofore opposed to the Govern
ment's policy have ceased their recrimina-
tions and now support the Government in
the effort to avert the humiliation and dis
grace of this partition. II is reported, in
deed, that the foreign minister has already
addressed circular to the Powers refusing
to recognize the treaty of San Stefano, as
far as it affects Roumania. This, IL true,
would mean an open rupture, but it requires
confirmation. Such decided step, how
ever far from frightening the Roumanians,
would have their unqualified approval"
