FOREIGN NEWS.

London, March 2I.-Pesth papers res
port that Count Andrassy on Wednesday
defnitively refused an alliance with Eng
land, and Sir H. G. Elliot thereupon de-
clared that England would not enter the
Congress.
According to the treaty of San Stefano,
the evacuation of European Turkey, ex.
cept Bulgaria, must be completed three
months after dehnitive peace, and por-
ton of the Russian troops may embark
on the Black Sea and Sea of Marmora.
Russia has thus insured herselfthe right,
or at any rate, the possibility Of having
a portion of her troops always around
Constantinople until the final settlement
is signed.
Pera, March 2I:-The Russians have
in the Bosphorus two regularly fitted tor>
pedo ships, carrying six torpedo boats:
In the House of Lords toenight, Earl
Derby, replying to the long and discur-
sive speech of Lord Stratheden on East
ern affairs, and for obvious reasons the
fleet should not be sent into the Black
Sea at the present moment. He protes.
ted against the repetition of unfounded
statements relative to dissensions in the
Cabinet The government had not asks
ed that Greece should enter the Congress
on the same footing as the great Powers
but simply that she should be represent
ed as a means of making her peace and
claims heard. The government had news
er proposed that Russia should submit
peace conditions to decisions by the ma
jority ofthe Congress. They asked that
all ofthe articles should be submitted for
discussion and discussion only, that be>
ing the only possible manner Of deciding
which of them affected European inter-
ests. This was the sole question now at
issue. He was not prepared to say what
answer Russia would give, but he thought
the demand of the government was
reasonable and moderate, and unless it
was complied with, there would be very
little use for the Congress to meet at all.

ENGLISH WAR SONGS.

What They are Singing Beyond the AtIAntlcs
This is the remonstrance which we are informed
England addresses to Russia;
"sald the lion, I'm the klngi think you've hadyour
fling
It's time that should have a word to say
You've nearly done your worst, but you'll conquer
Brltons first
If you take the Turkeys body clean away"
The same pretence to political provision and in.
sight into diplomatic counsels is not made by all
the Ministries Of the music hall. Some are con-
tented with lyrically assuring their hearers that
the English sailor Is ready when wanted" The
chorus in this stirring ballad is noteworthy for
shows the skill of its author to adapt heroic
strains to the festive jngllng of glasses and the
aroma Of vile tobacco in the popular halls of
pleasure;
I laugh and sing must have my fling, sailor Is
happier far than king
Though jolly and gay on the sea the shore, he's
ready when wanted, and true TO the core.
Others are martial exhortations not to show the
white feather, fervid protestauons that though at
peace, we are still on guard, and ennobling ap-
peals to the British flag. In song specially dedi-
Gated to this symbol of national strength we read
I'm satisfied there's no decay
In British pth and pluck
Before the world we'll have our say,
And trust to Srength-not luck.
We've means! we've right we've common sensei
We've courage force and skill
So-hang the question of expense
Old Englands England still
The chorus is:
"Tme was that England at a call,
Was ready for row;
Ishoudnt like to boast at all,
But can't lUe do 10 RO,U?'
Odd as 1t may seem, the author of this vulgar
senseless drivel is not Mr. Macdermott, but
gentleman who ought 10 know better, Mr. Robert
Reece. And even an accomplished LtterGteur like
Mr. c. W. Scott, who has written pleasant and
polished verses in his time, falls to the lowest
depth of olap-trap when peIverse fate tempts
him to try his hand at this species of compost
ton
"Here stands post; come behold it, and beware.
Here stands post tits signal, not a snare,
Here stands post yes, but who has put it thereH
