RUSSIA.
Russia and the Porte are evidently not on the best terms. A despatch of Jan. 31st, from St. Petersburg states, that in reply to the circular despatch addressed by Turkey to the protecting powers of Greece on the 26th December last, the Russian Government has informed the Porte that it is at present unable to judge whether the charges brought against Greece can be maintained, but tbat in any case efforts shall be made to prevent any further violation of international law. The Russian Government is, however, of opinion, that nothing short of a magnanimous initiative on the part of the Porte itself, can put an end to continually existing conflicts, and reconcile the interests of Turkey with the sympathies of the Greeks.
