LONDON, April 23. The Russian Embassy has left Stamboul. The Czar has reviewed his army, and urged them to exert bravery, and expressed a hope for their speedy and glorious return. April 24, The Emperor of Russia's manifesto recalls the interest he has felt on behalf of the Christian subjects of the Porte, and his desire that amelioration of their condition should be guaranteed. His entire reign has testified his solicitude for peace, lnit two years' negotiations with other Powers have failed through the stubborn refusal of the Porte. There had been a refusal of every effectual guarantee— the refusal of the protocol, which expresses the view of the European States — pacific efforts having become exhausted through the proud obstinacy of the Porte, obliges war. He was profoundly convinced of the justice of it, and placed confidence in God. This was forseen at the time he made the Moscow speech, and now the time had arrived for the independent action of Russia. Invoking the blessing of God, he would order the troops to cross the Turkish frontier. The circular of Gortschakoff states that by seeking forcibly what Europe vainly tried to secure peaceably, Russia's desire was to further the interest of Europe. SYDNEY, April 25. Arrived — Australia.
