ST. PETERSBURG. April II The Journal
dc st. Petersburg, reviewing the opinions OF
the foreign press upon Prince Gorlschakott' S
reply, coucuds as follows: The real desire
of Russia to bring about peaceful solution OF
the existing difficulties meets with universal
recognition. The British government must no"
abandon its purely negative attitude, either Dy
| inviting tho powers 10 assemble Tor common
negotiations, or by proposing solutions which the
British Cabinet might wish to substitute for the
treaty of San Steiano. Should the powers hnd
COMPROMISE Russia would willingly participate
| 10 discussion and modify the treaty. Such
| solution should not however Dulify the results
gained by Russian blood, bu! take into account
| her sacrifices.
The Russian government has employed the
time which has elapsed since the receipt OF
Lord Salisbury's circular in working to secure
| an understanding with England For this pur-
pose it has entered into direct communication
| with the Euglish and Austrian governments 80
| as to obtain a common basis OF agreement. 1t
has already obtained the assent OF the German
| and Austrian Cabinets to the main polnts oil
| Prince Gortschakoff's reply TO Lord Salisbury S
| circular. 1t has already been established be,
tween the three governments that the way shall
be made easy for the EnQlish Cabinet, so that
it may feel justified in accepting the congress
and rcccdpg gradually from the more extreme
demands put forth in Lord Salisbury 5 circular.
10 this wav it is hoped that the dagger ct a
useless and bloody war may be averted and an
amicablc solution be found for existing dlthcul,
ties. Those portions of the Russian reply
which were commentary on the Eoglish cir
cuar were written by Gen. Isnatief, who,
having recently seen Count Andrassy and as
certaioed his views, was enabled to make II SC
as not to clash with Austrian interests. Gen.
| Ignatieff will be the second Russian Plenlpo
tertiary to the Berlin Congress should 1t meet.
The probability now is that it viii, III every,
thing is preparLcIf I or SUCH al understanding as
will HscaoIe England to enter it without any sac
rifce of dignity.

Episcopal Church South meets in Atlanta, Ca

ing taken up in the churches of the Baltimore
Conference to detrsy the expenses of the dele
gates. Eight clerical and eight lay delegate;

names being as follows

j. w. Watson.
The session of the Conference will continue
three weeks, and one of the principal matters
which will come before tho body is the proposal
to abolish all limitations on the term of the
pastorate. The memorial on the subject, which
is numerously signed, urges that variety of
evils result from the old practice of changing
pastors every one, tive, or three years. Among
these are the decentralization of the finances, the
lack of q permanent home for the ministe: and
his family. the separation of pastors and young
converts. and especially the great and unneces-
sary number of bsckslidsrs. In 1856 this mat
tor was brought before the conference, and re-
celVed the support of respectable number Of
the most able men. Old usage, however has
caused the itinerant system to take deep hold
on the affections of the people, and there is
little probability that any definite action can be
secured until after several years of agitation.

out that, although the circular offers no coDces
sion on the point at issue, 1t is couohed 10 such
considerate aud moderate language as to leave
the door open for England to make some reply
to the Invitation for further explanations, and
thereby furnish basis for comm on under
standing. At Vienna, Prince Gortscbakof' j
reply created an impression of Russia's willing.
ness to find 40 acceptable method for reopening
negotiations This moderate spirit Is believed
to be 10 great measure due to the altered tone
of the comments of the German, French and
Italian press and politicians concerning the
treaty OF San Stefano, which point to the prob
ability of Russia, instead Of England, being
isolated 10 case of rupture.
The Vienna Cabioet which still 6rm y ad.
heres to the idea Of the congress as the only
possible solution, is. of course. greatly pleased
at the improved aspect of affairs. The Ger
man semi official newspapers yesterday evening
were not sapguine that either London or St.
Petersburg will make the concessions necessary
to secure an agreement, but all Information
agrees that the German Government continues
it's andeavors to bring about an agreement,
which it is not likely to do after the case is
hopeless. The improved feeling has therefore
substantial justification. The alleged circular
of Prince Gortschakotf, summary of which
was pfluteu LUIS uUEuluS NY Gue CeuIlai A\eHSs
and which seemed to reply to Austris's objec.
tions, is probably stupid hoax of some Paris
newspaper.
There seems to be some disposition at St.
Petersburg to show Roumania more considera.
tiop. 1t is DOW announced thence that Prince
Gortschakof meant that the stipulation for the
passage of Russian troops through Roumania.
not the question of the ccssion of Bessarsbia,
could not be submitted to the Congress. 1t is
