THE OTTOVdN Place.

Further uncertainty regarding the basis Of
peace between Russia and Turkey is dispcllcd
bv the protocol signed on 1hurtday last by the
Grand Duke Nicholas and the Ottoman plcnpO-
tentiaries. The terms have been f0rcshadowcd
to large extent. but they are still calculated
TO astonsh Europe, and afford the widest
field for conjecture as to their ultimate effect
OH Continental affairs. The first stipulation
that Bulgaria shall be principaIity-libcratcs
that fair and fertile province from Ottoman
Iule, makes its inhabitants free people, and
creates, in the heart Of Eastern Europe, Il new
SlavOnic State, equal to Indiana iii area,
which will owe its Liberation to Russia, and
will be as devoted TO her interests as Servia
and Roumania. If the term Bulgaria is to
include, as has been limited, districts inhabited
by Bulgalians, the territory OF the new
prncipality viii extend s0uthward OF the
Balkans, and include the blood d-s.aincd city Of
Eski SaglIra. The second stipuation-a war

troops who crossed the frontier on Saturday,
threatens to assume dangerous proportions.
The independence of Roumana, Servia and
Montenegro, conceded by the third article, was
one Of the inevitable results Of tic war. The
vaor which these States displayed. and the
timely aid they rendered Russia, entitled
them TO the privilege of absolute freedom.
The increase OF territory which each is to re-
ceiye, no doubt refers to the districts won by
the ScrvIans and MOncnegrins in their brief
but brilliant campaigns. 1t is unlikely that
the R0umanlans are TO receive territory
south Of the Danube, although it is possible:
that Russia may compensate them for Bcs-
sarabia, by giving them Widdin, or extend
ing their frontier at the mouths of the Dan
ube. 1t is, however, so much their
interest to retain the great natural
boundary of the Danube, that they may
be willing to accept compensation in
some other form. The reforms in Bos-
6ia and Herzegovina, assured by the
fourth article, imply the loss of these
provinces to the Ottoman Empire. They
