ENGLAND DISTRUSTFUL OF RUSSIA.

ENGLAND DlSTRUSIFlL OF Rt SSlA
LONDON, Friday. Jan. {, 1873.
The Standard in a leading article, says: "The
public will scarcely be surprised to learn that the
Government is unable to coincide in the opinion
that no material change has occurred in
the situation. England cannot with due
regard to our interests, accept the posi-
tion claimed by Russia! that the terms OF
peace are a matter for settlement between the latter
and Turkey subject only to ratification by Europe"
Ihe Standard argues that II this claim is allowed, we
NAV be debarrcd from interfering III the defence oi
our legitimate interests, except under very serious
disadvantage.
