CALL OF COURTESY
The Ambassadors regularly accredited to
the Court of Berlin have oil gone to Ores
den. for the purpose of congratulating the
King of Saxony on the twenty-fitth anniver-
sary of his marriage, there being no Am
bassadors to the minor German States since
the establishment of tho Empire.
GoRrscHAKoYP AGAIN I'LL.
All the plenipotentiaries exchange visits,
with the exception of Prince Gortschakoff,
who is sick from indigestion on account of
having eaten some straw berries, but it is
expected that he will be present at the Con-
grcss tomorrow. The plenipotentiarie
have already had sufficient social inter
:ourse to enable them to understand one
another and to form a pretty accurate esti-
mate of the result Of the Congress.
ae.is WHAT THEY SAY.
Count Andrassy is the most active Of the
diplomatists present. He has finally ar
ranged the Austrian programme and sub
mittedit individually to most Of the men,
bers of the Congress. Lord Beaconsfeld
expressed his entire approval. NJ. Wadding-
ton received it warmly and Count Corti also
expressed his concurrence. Count An
drassy had second interview with the
italian representative after the latter had
had conference with Count Schouvaloff
ONE DANGER DISPOSED OF.
This accord is on the question Of Bessa-
rabia, which the assembled delegates unan-
mously agree should be ceded to Russia.
A conflict on q very delicate question is
thus avoided, as the Car is known to have
irrevocably made up his mind to yield
nothing on this point, even if general
European war should be the result.
BUT SUPPOSE She HAS AUSTRIAN SUPPORT?
The threat Of Roumanian resistance does
not give rise to any serious uncasincss, as
the military force Of the Principally would
be absolutely at the mercy Of Russia with
out the support of Austria.
oRgLce AGAIN TO THE FRONT.
The session tomorrow (Monday) will
begin by a proposition to be submitted by
Lord Beaconsfield that Greece should be
admitted to the Congress. Prince Bis
Congress the demands made by the States
whose independence is not yet recog-
nizad by EUROPE oumania, Servia and
Montenegro. This will undoubtedly raise
o long discussion, as very strong opinions
are held ON the subject of tho merits of
these municipalities by many OF the states
men present.
BlsMARcK's TOWER AGAIN.
Italy is in favor Of admitting the repre-
sentatives Of all these minor nationalities,
and France will also support their claim to
hand, decidedly object to tho admission of
any Of them, and thus another hitch
will arise, from which Prince Bismarck
will extricato the Congress by proposing
that they shall not be admitted as regular
delegates, lest the discussion sshould be in
conveniently prolonged, but that they
shall be allowed to appear before the Con-
cress during the discussion OF the points
which affect their interests. This ccurse is
certain to be adopted.
The BUTcHEnIEs Az BATAK--NkvEn ANY MOTE.
Immediately after this will como the dis
cussion of tho Bulgarian question. This is
beyond oil doubt the most important ques-
ton which will come before the Congress,
for the rcason that once it Is solved peace
will be assured;
M xuyrnfa,s TENDER POINT.
II Is tho question about which Austria
