Jxhtdon. Jari 4. The ran corres 'pdudent of the paily News says it - i rdmored that betore the meeting of the Chambers. M JVaddiDeton may be come minister of public inetruction, and JVi iiaraoux, minister oi justice. M'Dufaure is taking the ministry of toreign affairs.., v .'u . The Standard, m a leaamg article, says j: The public will ; scarcely be surprised to learn that the government issuable -;to -coincide in the opinion tliat no material change j has occurred in the situation England cannot with due regard to our interests faccept the position claimed' by Russia, that the terms ofpeaceWe a matter for settle mehl betweeri. the latter; and Turkey, subject only to ratification by Europe." The Standard argues that if this claim is allowed, we may be debarred frm interfering in the defence of our Iiitinrate interests except under very serious disadvantage, i s From a letter! written the ; 28th of December, by Lady Strangeford, su perintending the hospitals at Sofia, it w?uld appeacCtbat the Turks had at ihat time , determined not to attempt fed-hold the place. Lady Strangeford ftsites that ' she. will remain, and be- I lieves she will be able to continue her duties without interruption or annoy ance. The Turkish norses-have agreed to stay. What was feared was disorder in the town, .but the Turks have gone away quietly, and there is not the slightest panic, noise or trouble.. The town ,wiU be taken without resistance. This coincides with, information irom the Turkish side about the movements of their forces. "All 5 garrisons in ex posed positions beyond Sofia have been gradually withdrawn and concentrated at Ikhtiman. The force at Kamarii seems to have been surprised and en dangered by the Huesian flank move ment upon Tashezn, but; succeeded in getting to Slatitzi after a hard fight, from which place it can reach Ikhti man by the Topolnitza valley. It is not believed that the Russian General Gourko has a sufficient force to storm the Ikhtiman defile, or that such force could be supplied in the present state of Russian communications. Bogekt, Jan 4. The Turks still oc cupy the line of the Kara Lnm river and Carefully guard it bridges on the road to Shumla. Heavy ice continues running in the Danube. St Petersburg, Jan 4. The semi official Russian agency says : "The re ply to the British inquiry in behalf of the Porte stated that the decisions and acts of the1 imperial policy are still guided by the two paramount consid erations of putting an end to the con-1 stantly recurring disturbances and avoiding complications by respecting the interests of third parties. Assu rances satisfactory to the British gov ernment, and people were given con cerning English interests immediately they were made known.; These inter ests are no more menaced now than then, for although Russia then reserv ed the contingency of being compelled by military necessities to obtain peace under the walls of Constantinople, it depends upon England to avert this contingency by divesting the Porte of any illusion respecting English sup port. It is evident that if the Porte has ground to hope 'that the entry of the Russians .into Constantinople would cause England to intervene, it would do every thug to bring about that contingency by refusing any con ditions of peace." Alexandria, Jan A. The cholera has appeared at Jeddah and Mecca. St Petersburg, Jan 4. A private dispatch announces that 40,000 Turks have retired into Routnelia. The re mainder of the Ottoman forcfs, num bering 70,000 men, remaining north of the Balkans, are distributed among the fortresses of the quadrilateral. Osman Pasha will be conveyed to the town of Ryasan, a hundred miles southeast of Moscow, where he will pass his cap tivity. iLoNDOtf, Jan 4. Dispatches from Bucharest say that the army which was to cross the Shipka pass and co operate with General Gourko in a move ment against Adrianople, gives no sign of activity, and' while the present weather continues such an operation is; impossible. A deep snow offers al most insurmountable obstacle to wag ons, and the Russians have no sledges. Orders have been issued for a supply of sledges, but by the time they are ready the Bnow will probably have disappear ed and the roads Will be impassable from mud and water. The Daily .News' correspondent at PpCharest telegraphs that he consid ers it improbable; tbat the Russians can reach Adrianople before May next uA Renter's dispatch from Constan tinople, says : "The Turkish Chamber of Deputies have adopted an amend ment to the .address: in reply to a speech from the Throne at the opening of Parliament, relating to the govern nient's military policy .j. The ministers of war, marine and foreign affairs are invited to explain. The government has demanded a vote of 5.000,000 Turkish pundsforrequirements the of the army " ' - . VThe Daily Telegraphy Pall Mall Ga 2efe and other,; anti-Russian newspa pers take the same view of the Earl of Carnayoran'a speech .on Wednesday last,, as did the Standard in its issue this morning. ;The Standard stated : "Eng land "cannot; with : due regard to Eng lish interests accept the position that RussjaTand Turkey can settle the terms of peace," subject only io-Enrope's rati ficatioa. SfIf thigy claim was allowed England would be debarred except un der eerious disadvantages of interfer ing in defence of her legitimate in ter e8tB" The.EarV.of Carnayran's speech,' it now seems, was delivered on Wed nesday before,' not as at first supposed, after' the cabihet pouhcil which had to consider the Russian i answer to - Eng-i land's note relative to peace' negotia- tions. , '-,.-!.- The Manchester. Guardian's "London dispatch says "The' : supporters of Lordi.Beaconsfield'8 vipollcy, contend that the Earr of Carnavran's speech was intended7 not o expound but M in fluence the cabinet's oriews. There is : 31U gome jastifi cation for; thia judgment, It is no secret that the Earfof Derby 's November speech wat a surprise to the Premierand also'a 'source of intense interest, but it ia likewise well knows that the Premier baa' been giving in structions to M : 'Layard, ambassador at Constaniinople : over ,tb e head of the foreign society; If the Earl of Der by attem pted to force: the hand of one section of the cabinet in November, it is virtually probable that the Earl of Carnavran may ; be brought to a simi lar expedient, now that . the dangers of the - situation . have - -become-. more definite.. Such are tbe.views of those who believe that the Earl of , Carnav ran's speech expressed ho more than his personal opinion. ,,I am bound to say that they are in t the minority. Some of the Earl of Carnavoran's col leagues may differ from him on such questions as the justice or wisdom of the Crimean war, but they are perfect ly unanimous as to the necessity of this; country-, having a voice in the final settlement." . To-day (Thursday) arid yesterday the cabinet , are understood to have ad dressed themselves to some of the dif ficulties involved inf ttfa means for bringing tbeir unanimity to a success ful issue. , ; ,Tjue terms of peace are not now un ksown to them. As represented here they are much more moderate than was expected. According to one ac count, which is accepted in well in formed quarters, the neutralization of the Dardanelles is not even mentioned, but there is ah accession of territory in Bessarabia to the old frontier. I suppose the independence of Servia and Roumania, the accession of terri tory to Montenegro, and the cession of Batoum and K.ars are part of the scheme. The fate of the Turkish fleet is not within, the proposal that will be decided. When the Russian govern ment requires compensation, with the new light thus thrown upon the situa tion, it would not be surprising if our government advised the Sultan to make a direct appeal to Russia. Note. The "Earl of Derby in a speech, in November last, to a deputa tion, stated that the government saw no reason to depart from its neutrality, and he did not think Constantinople or the Suez Canal in danger. When the government saw a reasonable opportu nity it would do what it could to bring abut peace. The l'ime8t in a leading editorial ar ticle, referring to these conflicting interpretations, says there ought to be an end to the mystery and ambiguity which have of late shaken every inter est in the country. The time has more than come when the government bhould cease, whether at home or abroad, to have two voices. OUR CONTINUED STORY. Business Failures in All Parts of the Country. Chicago, Jan 4.
