If the Russians attempt to 90 to Gallipoi or Con.
stantnople there is hardly doubt that the British
Ministry will Interfere il supported by majority OF
Parliament and they probably Will be- although
the most advanced section Of the opposition in
both houses would not regard the occupation OF
Constantinope as an interference with British In.
terests or ground for hostile action.
FEELING IN ST. PETERSBURG.
Though 1t is the general impression in most OF
the European capitals that the Turks will accept
Russians conditions, and that peace will be con-
Guided yet much doubt and anxiety prevail par
ticulary in London and st. Petersburg. The latest
adviccs from the latter place say that more conf
dence Is felt since the peace conditions were sub
mitted to Austria and were not objected to ON her
own behalf, thus minimizing the danger OF an
Ango-Austrian alliance.
BISMARCK APPROVES THE CONDITIONS.
1t Is said that the conditions, which were only
made known ut Vienna this week, have been sub.
mitted to Prince Bismarck and approved long ago.
II the conditions known in London vet that fact
has not become public. Lord Derby Foreign Score.
tary, and Count Schouvaloi, the Russian Ambassa-
DOR had an interview on Monday, but the subject IL
unknown.
AUSTRIA Uses HER GOOD OFFICES.
The statement In the despatch from Vienna that
Count Andrassy, while acknowledging That the
HuSStun COnultiOHS buucleutly respect Austfia'y
interests, discovered among them what he fears
will be cdsus belt for England, and has opened
negotiations with view to modifying the
Russian demands amounts to this:--"That Count
Andrassy, fearing he saw reason Tor England veto
Of the conditions has undertaken to secure their
modification, and In this has secured Prince Bis
marck's support" The latter statement, how.
ever, the correspondent admits to be mere sup
position.
THE GERMAN PRESS NOT UNANIMOUS.
The utterances OF the semi. oiicialy inspired Ger
man newspapers, or those commonly reputed to be
90, very conflicting. Thus, the Berlin Provincial
Correspondence, which Is the organ Of the Home
ONCE, believes that peace win be secured The
Berlin Post, which Is conservative, trusts that the
Gar will not occupy Constantinople, because, In
that case, England must interfere. The Aueoe.
meme Zeitung, reputed to be Prince Blsmarcks
special mouthpiece, says:-"The eventful entry OF
the Russians into Constantlnope cannot longer be
regarded a. impracticable" The National Zet-
