should again cause serious apprehen-
sions. The Powers, by united efforts,
had succeeded in localizing the move
ment and paving the way to the re
establishment Of the legal status Of
affairs. but the recent events in Sofia
have produced a fresh and dangerous
crisis, the development Of which, and
/ trust its pacific solution, occupy at
the present moment, the full atten-
ton Of my Government, whose efforts
are directed to attain the final settle
ment of the Bulgarian question, which
must be effected in cooperation with
the other Powers. and an agreement
that there shall be created an autono-
matous principality and loyal state of
things which, while taking into &C
count the admissible wishes of the
Bulgarians, shall equally as well coin
eide with the interests of Europe.
Our excellent relations with all the
Powers and the assurances of peace

Governments, justify the hope that
Notwithstanding the difficult position

NV YORK, Nov. 9-Things have
taken a bad turn in the East. The
dispatches from the European CAPT
tails give a more gloomy view of the
situation than at any time since the
deposition of Prince Alexander. The
failure of Russia at Bourgas discredits
her diplomacy, enrages the military
party and is regarded as an affront to
the Gar. 1t was confidently believed
in St. Petersburg that the signal of
revolt at Bourgas would be followed
by general rising throughout Bull
garia and Eastern Roumelia against
the existing regime, and that the au-
thorities would be covered into sur
render. Instead of that, the people
are being called to arms, a state of
seige is proclaimed, and Russian sym
pathizers, in open defiance of Raul
bars threats, have been imprisoned.
Everything seems to point to speedy
termination Of the interregnum of
inaction and a commencement of act
tive measures for the assertion of
Russian supremacy in the Balkan
States.
Even the Berlin press, hitherto so
jealous in the cause of peace and so
sanguine of Bismarck's moderating
influence. is forced to declare at last
that the tranquility of Europe is seri-
ously menaced.
The London press views the new
situation from varying standpolnts.
The Times alone calls for war. The
Standard is disposed to despair of eff
fective action on the Bulgarian side.
The Daily Netcs, while friendly to Bull
garian influence, condemns the ten
dency of Tory Cabinets to entangle
the Empire in continental squabbles.

sans at Slivnitza, headed by some Of
