The French and German Ambassadors have had an interview with the Sultan and explained to him the bad effect which his last note to the Powers has had. An attempt on the part of the Sultan to make termß with Eussia failed. Probably England, Bussia, and Italy will issue a joint mandatory note to the Sultan. The other Powers decline to assist in the application of physical coercion to Turkey. The land agitation and the agrarian outrages in Ireland continue. The feeling of the Roman Catholios against the Land Beform League is spreading. The Boman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin has issued a pastoral and the Bishop of Cologne has made a speech, both significant in oharaoter. Lords Annesley, Templemore, and Chester (landlords), refuse to remain in Ireland during the winter.
October 12. Duloigno has at last been surrendered, the Sultan having yielded to the friendly advice of Germany and Austria. Cooroion by the Powers in favour of Greece is now regarded as impossible. France has declined the initiative in regard to the Greek difficulty. The fleet proceeds to Smyrna. The news. that the Porte has offered to comply with the demands of the Great Powers as regards the unconditional surrender of Dulcigno created a favourable impression. The " Times" already publishes a leading article on the latest phase of the question, in which it expresses the opinion that a respite should be granted to Turkey to enable the Sultan to give effect to the engagements on which he has entered, and gives hopes of a satisfactory settlement being brought about. CALCUTTA, October 12. Latest statements received from Burmah tend to show that relations in that country are still of an unsatisfactory character, and an early outbreak of hostilities is now feared. A force consisting of 10,000 Burmese collected on the frontier were actively preparing to attack the troops in British Burmah. The garrison under the command of Captain Allendy has been increased, and measures were being taken to resist ony hostile movement.
