London, October 7. Public feeling throughout Europe is indignant at the proposals of the Porte for the settlement of the Montenegrin and Greek, questions, and the Continental press generally expresses extreme disapproval of the same. The French journals urge prompt action against Turkey to secure a settlement of the difficulties. The Great Powers, however, are awaiting proposals, from England before taking any- steps. In some quarters the blockade of the Turkish ports is suggested as a means of coercion towards the Porte. The Czar's new steamer Livadia has sailed from Glasgow for Russia. In view of the state of affairs in Ireland barracks at tbe various towns in the West of Ireland are being prepared to receive further bodies of troops from England.
