The Vienna correspondent OF the
Times explains the situation with more
probability, US follows: The greatest
stress Ia here laid on the meeting OF
the congress as the first step toward
restoring the European character of the
eastern question raised by England.
The question Of the competence OF
congress could not, therefore, be looked
upon as opp0rtune, however much the
Vienna cabinet agreed on the princi-
pie that all classes OF the treaty should
be- ops to discussion. The settlement
of this point, should II be contested,
was, In the opinion of this govern,
ment, far more likely to succeed In
congress than out OF It, Once the ques-
tion was raised, however, Austria nat.
urally became as much bound
add interested as any other gov.
eminent to see it settled without
prejudice to the powers Of the congress,
and according to the view taken here
the communication OF the treaty and
the admission by Russia that an arti:
Gle of it may be made the subject Of
discussion at conference have settled
the question as 1t required to be. The
whole proceedings on the part Of Rus
STA might perhaps have been more
considerable toward England, and the
form in which answers were given less
studied, hut this government seems to
be of the opinion that the differences
remaining between England and Rus.
sia are those OF form rather than OF
principle, and ought not to be bar to
the meeting Of the congress.
