The Nonfenegrin Question.

THE NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN THE P0WERS.
LONDON. July pa Reuters telegram
from Paris says: \ dispatch from Jenna
is published here purporting to give an ac-
count OF negotiations between the Powers
on the Montenegrig question. England,
according to the dispatch, proposed to Tur-
key to cede DuIcigro or carry out the pro-
tocoI OF last April. The Porte declined 10
cede DucigrO, and asked delay OF three
months to carry out the TurcO-MOntene-
grin Convention. Tie Powers refused,
and insisted on an immediate execution Of
the Convention.
While the negotiations were pending
England, anticipating a refusal OF the Porte,
took the initiative in cllecting the under
standing between the Powers, and made
verbal proposals to five other Cabinets for
sending to Turkish waters vessels from
each Power, carrying troops for land SER
vice. Austria accepted, but objected to
sending troops for Decentralization, and de-
manded that The fleet only consist OF two or
three vessels from each Power. Russia adj
hered 10 the proposals without reservation.
The other Powers made a reservation OF
points OF detail. but on the whole a com
plete understanding was established on The
eXpediencv Of naval demonstration. Ne
gOtiations on the MOnieneGrin question are
perfectly distinct to those in regard TO the
Turco.G Greek frontier.
Later negotiation, will entera more active
phase when the Porte has replied to the
collective note. II the reply be negative 1t
j. considered probable that the naval de-
monstraliOn will aim at settlement OF the
Greek IL well a the Montenegrin question.
Ambassadors at Constantinople are making
great efforts 10 induce the Porte to imme-
diately accede to the demands OF the Powers,
but the Porte is little disposed to comply.
The Porte has made confidential oyertures
10 several Powers, more particularly Russia,
England. and Germany, the object being TO
prevent accord among the Powers; and al
though this policy has not had the desired
result it j. feared that the Porte still cher
ishes hope OF succeeding, and mus con-
tinues in an unyielding spirit.

at Pcking. Even the officers with whom

roses filled the air OF the early morning with
their Odor. The orchards were alive with
women and children picking peaches and
