/ At Wednesday sitting Prince Gortschakoff
had to be carried into the council room and
| who spoke with effort in a tremb bling voice but
with an expression of resolution, said the re-
marks he was about to make were prompted by
love Of truth for his country. His colleagues
| had granted concessions in the name of
Russia for surprising what she thought of
| making. He was far too well aware of the
| feelings which actuated his colleagues to raise
| objections to the concessions they deemed it
| their duty to make. He merely wished to state
that Russia made those sacrifices from desire
