sentens we take to mean that England, and most likely Austria and other Powers represented at the Congress, were not quite in agreement with Russia as to what should be done with Bulgaria Sack as assumption, however, is a little contradictory of the statement of the agreement between Lord Salisbary and Count Schouvaloff respecting Bulgaris, but, nevertheless, it is borne out by the subsequent advices.

The amended telegram comes next in order and reads: Lord Beaconsfield made the continuance of the European Congress dependent upon the conditional acceptance of the arrangement agreed to by England, Raasia and Austria regard- ing Bulgaria, The Russian Plenipoten- tiaries have appealed to the Emperor of Russia The Emperor of Russia, in replying, agreed to adhere to the arrange- ment,aditional upon the administrative autonomy of the province south of the Balkans, in which there are to be no Turkish troops," The condition here imposed by the Emperor of Russia is exactly in accordance with the agreement entered into between the Marquis of Salisbury and Count Schouvaloff

Here we fancy ahould be read the 1 telegram giving the announcement of the Times that England, Austria and Russia are agreed regarding Bulgaria, subject to the ratification of the Congress. Then comes the telegram we publish in another column stating that "according

It seems a pity that the Powers united in Congress do not insist upon the untrammelled rule of Turkey over the whole of Roumelia, for such a rule would greatly strengthen the position of Turkey in Europe, and Russia would not dare to refuse such a request, if pre sented by the whole of the Powers, excepting Russia, represented at the Congress,

The brief history of the recent staged of the Bulgarian question is then, as we read it, that Lord Salisbury and Count Sahouvalof agreed that the Bulgarians north of the Balkans should be inde pendent and choose their own ruler; that their less fortunate brethren south of the Balkans should also govern them selves, but acknowledge the suzerainty of the Sultan, and that the shores of the Mediterranean should remain under the direct control of the Porte. On the meeting of the Congress Lord Beacons field made the acceptance of this agree ment, to which Austria also appears to have been a party, an indispensable con dition of England continuing to partici- pate in the Congress, and it is quite pos sible that at the Berlin meeting the agreement was amplified somewhat, otherwise it is not easy to perceive why there should be some apparent hesita tion on the Czar to accept the proposals THE strongest hopes can now, we think, of the Congress in regard to Bulgaria. be entertained that the result of the We are told that the Russian Pleni- Congress will be Peace.
