The tons of Lord Salisbury's speel was assentiully pacifio. Hie Lordship, refxring,to the reports regarding Russian disigm' on Port Arther, said that England was prepared for any combination as regards war or opinores in that direction, and might look with oquanimity on any person who thinks he can stelude us from that fertile region. He recalled Lori Beaconsfield's words that in Asia thero was roout enough for all. He was doubtful if the Sultan would exsents the necessary reforms in Arcenie, but he said that all the Powers were co-operating and wore squally anxious to maintain the peaco of Europe. His lordship added that this of the Sultan to execute the reformu required must lead the Turkish Government to Na doom. Nevertheless ho bélioved that the Powors adhored to the necessity of maintaining Turkey and wolding a calamitous European outbreak. | ON His Lordship was greatly impressed with the disposition of the Fowers to set together, and with their songs of the appalling danger of separation. In Armenian reforms Lord Balls bury had fought against substituting Christina for Mealem officers in Armonis, in order to avoid any partiality, and to show our Massui- man compatriots, who are amongst the most loyal and orderly subjects of the Queen, that they may look to the Imperial Goromous with as certain conviction of impartiality, they bad bean merastomed to for over a century from the Indian Government.
