LONDON, April 2, 1873.
Sir Stafford Northcote, Chancellor OF the Elk
chequer, in reply to question by Lord Harrington,
said that circular has been sent to the Powers by
the British government explaining the views OF
the government regarding the present position
OF affairs. This circular bears date OF April and
is signed by the Marquis Of Salisbury. 1t sum.
marizes all the recent correspondence, and, after
giving Russia's refusal to consent to England's
demand relative to placing the treaty as q whole
before the Congress, continues as follows:-
CIRCULAR TO THE POWERS.
Her Maiestys government deeply regret Rus.
sia's decision Even If considerable portion OF
the stlpulations of the treaty were likely to be
approved, Russias reservation relative to their
discussion would, nevertheless, be open to most
serious objection. Every material stipulation OF
the treaty involves departure from the treaty
OF 1885, and by the declaration signed in London
In 1871 1t is Impossible Tor Her Majesty's gov
eminent to acquiesce in q withdrawal from the
cogntzance Of the Powers Of articles which are
notifications OF existing treaties. The combined
effect Of the stipuatons upon the interests Of the
Powers also furnishes a conclusive reason against
separate discussion OF any one portion OF them
BY the articles relative to new Bulgaria strong
Siav State will be created under the auspices and
control OF Russia VINO Will thus secure prepon-
derating political and commercial influence in the
Black and 1Egean Seas
THE CONSEQUENCES
\ considerable Greek population, although It
views the prospect with alarm, Will be merged
into Slav community alien to II. The provisions
exrr
for Bulgaria, while Russian administrator
FIRST working Of its institutions, sufficiently
Indicate Of what political system 1t
will in the future form part. The stipuations
for The better government OF Thessaiy and Epirus,
IN themselves highly commendable, are accom-.
panied by conditions. the general effect Of which
will be to increase the power Of Russia to the
prejudice OF Greece ami every other country having
interests In the Eastern Mediterranean
STEAMBOAT AND THE ARMENIAN CITIES.
The territorial severance OF ConstantinopIe from
the European provinces still left under its govern.
ment will deprive the Porte OF any political
strength which might have been derived from their
possession and expose their Inhabitants to serious
risk OF anarchy. The acquisition OF Bessarabia ana
Batoum makes Russia dominant over ali the
vicinity OF the Black Sea, while the acquisition OF
the Armenian stronghods secures her influence
over the population OF the province and enables her
TO arrest trade between Europe and Persia
THE INDEMNITY
The indemnity stipulated for Is evidently beyond
Turkeys means, even not considering the portion
OF her revenue hypothecated TO other creditors
Its mode OF payment being vaguely stated, 1t may
thus be demanded Immediately, left to weigh down
the Portes independence for many years, COM
muted for more territorybr be made the means or
AN END OF TURKEY.
The combined effect OF the treaty stipuatons IA
to deprcss almost to the point Of entire subecion
the political independence OF the Porte 1t cannot
be otherwise than a matter OF extreme solicitude
TO Great Britain that government whose formal
jurisdiction extends over geographical positions OF
the deepest interest TO her should be so closely
pressed by the political outposts OF a greatly
superior Power that It's independent action aud
even existence Is almost impossible
FIRM To THE END.
Large changes will doubtless be necessary in
hitherto existing treaties. England earnestly de.
sires good government and peace and freedom Tor
the populations to whom those blessings have been
strange. She would willingly have entered Con-
gress 10 which the stipuiations could be examined
as a whole but neither British interests nor the
well being OF the Turkish provinces would be con.
suited by the assembling OF Congress restricted
BY Prince Gortschakons latest reservations
