NATURALIZATION OF THE BALTIC.

BISMARCK RET1REs.
The Times has the following from cor
respondent at st. Petersburg: "There is
some truth in the rumors that Prince Bis
marck has retired from the position of
mediator. As the principle of simultaneous
withdrawal from Constantinople is accepted,
he thinks negotiations as to details can be
more conveniently carried on directly be-
tween the parties concerned. Per
haps he is also influenced by
certain unofficial insinuations that
he does not ardently desire the success of
| negotiations. Russia is quito ready to con-
| tinuo negotiations direct, and hopes Lord
Salisbury will abandon his purely negative
criticism, but it is not known how England
intends to act. Some very well informed
people are here convinced that direct nego-
tiations can hardly fail to be successful if
both sides desire an amicable arrangement.
am assured this is the case with Russia, who
is ready to accept any arrangement securing
amelioration of the condition of the Chris
tians and moderate compensation. The
correspondent recites the notifications of
the San Stefano treaty, to which Russia is
willing to submit, such as the limitation
of the boundaries and of the period of
occupation Of Bulgaria, the substitution of
a European for a Russian commission and
the organization of European syndicate to
consider the claims Of holders of Turkish
bonds as we'll as the Russian claim for in
demnity. He says he has also good reason
to believe that Russia will content
herself with the retrocession of q
small strip of Bessarabia inhabited
by Russians. She will, however, to all ap.
pearance, remain firm on the question OF
submitting the whole treaty, as size cannot
agree to any proposal which has the evident
intention OF inficting humiliation.
A Calcutta dispatch to the Times says il
is reported that the commanding officers o.

alton.
