LONDON, May 2O.-A Vienna correspond,
ent telegraphs: The Conciliatory desposi-
ton in St. Petersburg was maintained to the
end of Count Schouvaloff's visit, despite eff
forts to the contrary, and the struggle OF
POLITICAL and personal friends which has
been going on for the last week in St.
Petersburg, was decided in favor of Count
Schouvaloff. He is said to have waited for
an attack but at the first interview with the
Emperor he assailed the treaty
of San Stefano and it's trainers
boldly and frankly. The impression pro-
duced on the Cars mind is reported to have
been so deep that no efforts of his advisors
could weaken it. The effect of the Counts
communication about the extent of the con-
cessions, which, in his opinion, must be made
if war with England was to be avoided,
was startling indeed, and found
expression in these first reports
as to the English demands being deemed ex-
horbitant and at the same time 50 little pre-
else as to not offer sufficient basis for ne
gotiations. This phase, however, passed
away and now there can scarcely be doubt
that Count Schouvalof goes back to London
empowered to make concessions in accord
ance with the British point of view; nay
more, as is believed in st. Petersburg, to of
fer great concessions.
It will, however, be Impossible 10 Judge
whether Schouvaloff' success is apparent or
real until he arrives in London.
In proportion as the news from st. Peters
burg is more pacific, that from CONSTANT
nople is more warlike. The Russians insist
that the movements of their troops are not
intended as hostile, but the Turks are, not
withstanding, hard at work Strengthening
their lines and bringing out guns. This
is not easy, as the Turkish line
of defense from the Sea of Marmora to the
Black sea is 80 long, and while the Turkish
force about the capital is superior to the
Russian, it is hardly sufficient to man such a
length of line. The Turks will be soon re-
inforced, however, by the forty battalions
released in Thessaly and twenty battalions
from Varna.
A correspondent at Pera says there are no
apprehensions of Russian coup de MAN.
A dispatch from Syria says the chief of
Mecca has issued an appeal to the faithful,
that Khalf is in danger of calling upon them
and to fly to the rescue. The appeal is made
throughout Arabia and Asia Minor, but is
not likely to have much effect, as the Arabs
are disafected.
FALh 3 RESIGNATION.
A Berlin dispatch says: DR.. Falk's res
equation will certainly be followed by that
of Herr Prudential, and probably that of
Herr Hobreecht. If Falk cannot be induced
to stay Prudential and Hobreecht may pre-
fer going to seconding the action of the &C
clesiastical minister.
HERZEGOVINA.
A Pera correspondent says Austria is on
the point of an understanding with the
Porte for the friendly occupation of Herze-
govina. Fifteen thousand more Russians
are expected from Adrianople.
