The Earl of Derby to Lord A. Lofton.
Foreign Ollos, May 1, 1877, My Lord-I forwarded to your Exoalloney my despatch of the 24th alt. a copy of Prinse Gortchakol's Circular dispatch of the 7-19th ult, announcing that tho-Einperor of Russia had given orders to his armies to cross the frontiers of Turkey.
Her Majesty's Government have received this commumication with deep regret. They cannot accept the statements and conclusious with which Prince Gortchakoff has recompanied it, as justifying the resolution thus taken.
The Protocol to which her Majesty's Govern- ment, at the instance of that of Enssis, recently became parties, required from the Sultan no. -fresh. gaurauteas for the refoam of his adminie- tration: With a view of enabling Russis the hattor in abstain from isointed action, it affirmet. the interest taken in common by the Powers in the condition of the Christian populations of Turkey.

To these declarations of the intentions of the! Powers the consent of the Porte was not asked or required: Tho Parts no doubt has thought fit wafortunately, in the opinion of her Majesty's
Government to protest against the expressions
