LONDON, March 27.-This afternoons
PdttMult Gazette prints q Berlin special
saying: "The Powers have declined asug-
gestion made by Russia that the congress
be held without England. Prince Gorts-
chakof is endeayoring to bring about
meeting OF three Emperors and the three
chanceliors. Russia is understood to have
indicated her willingness to make further
concessions to Austria, and some conces-
sions also to Roumania, being prompted by
growing apprehensions OF differences with
England. Germany has under the same
circumstances abandoned for the presentaIl
idea Of issuing invitations for a congress-.
LONDON. March 27.-The Sultan received
the Grand Duke Nicholas with the utmost
courtesy and cnrdiality. Diplomatic rela-
tons between Russia and Turkey are fully

! A Rome dispatch says: s'The Pope's con-
ciliatory letter to the German Emperor has
been answered in. the same SPIRIT. There is
q prospect OF the Ultramontane difficulty
being overcome"
The journal de st. Petersburg declares
Russia will not endure apositlon obliging
her to maintain her ornaments indefinitely.
The Berlin Post remarks that the collapse
OF the congress would enforce such an at:i-
tude on both Russia and England.
The Berlin Post, which prints nothing
political without q purpose, and which is
one of Prince Bismarck's organs, SAYS that
the failure OF the congress would probably
result in Russia and England remaining at
peace, but arming for war. The prolonged
ornaments England can infinitely better
afford than Russia, who would be reduced
to exhaustion were she obliged to maintain
her armies on war footing for some years.
AS Russia cannot attack England, while
England is perfectly in position to bide her
time, Russia will probably be driven to eX-
tend her conquests in the interval, the bet
ter to be prepared for the collision when il
does occur; but in such case Austria and
Greece would join England to protect their
own interests. As to Germany, she will
never fight for Russia or any other foreign
interest. Russia, therefore, had better re-
strain her ambition.
BISMARCK AS MEDIATOR NOT A SUCCESS.
LONDON, March 27.-The Berlin Tdgbtatt
says: "Prince Bismarck's latest attempt at
mediation between England and Russia is
thus far unsuccessful. His proposal was
that Russia should indicate beforehand the
points in the treaty which she agreed should
be discussed at the congress. Russia has not
yet replied TO this proposal"
