| : PEACE . -RUSSIA UNCONDITIONALI . Y ACCEPTS THE AUSTMA . N TEHMS AS A . BASIS FOU KEOOTIATION . Such Tvas the intelligence which startled London on * Thursday morning . It was doubted by many at fi « t ; Ct the second editioas of the daily , . papers confidently announced the news a W ^ S XJ ' yesterday tfie Morning Post published the fact that the Government had received ail intimation from Sir Hamilton Seymour at Vienna that such was m ti uth the case . Negotiations , therefore , will be renev . ed , - but it remains to be seen whether , as was . the case W surine . Russia , after accepting the terms in the concrete
abstraet , will not reject them in the x ne Vienna correspondent of the P atnc says that the ; Peace negotiations will be carried on solely in that m b ? i ° S sketch of the final stages whic h led to this result will not be uninteresting . Count de Stackelberg was the bearer to the Court of Vienna of counter-propositions on . tlie part of Russia . The Morning Post gives the innexed as the upshot of these propositions : — " Russia rejects tlie second clause of the first prorectincanou ui
vosal —viz . the ' u ^ """« " "*~" Turkey . ' She also rejects the fifth proposal , by which a right of producing special conditions is reserved to the belligerent Powers , and in virtue of which they would demand tho engagement not to rebuild Bomarsund . Kussia accepts the rest of the ulhmaturn , m-¦ o eluding the neutrsilisatiouof the Black Sen , with some modifications . In exchange for the strong places and territories occupied by the allies , Russia proposes to restore to the Porto Kars and the territories slie has won from Turkey in -Asia in the last campaign . Austria , however , exhibited unwonted firmness and decision . She gave Russia till the lbth iuatant ( yesterday ) , for declaring yes or no ; aud , in announced tjikh
tho evemt of the latter , she , ««» would a . t once bi-ealc off diplomatic intercourse with the Cabanot of St . Petorabwrg . Tho counter-propositions of Russia a « o alleged to havo been couched in very conciliatory language . Notwithstanding this npucoranoo of enorgy , Austria informed tlie Western Towers that she would not bo prepared to enter tho field this yenr m tho event of Russia refusing her ultimatum . ' \\ hetncr she would eye * have been " prepared may be doubted ; but her interference has certainly led to a proflpCct of ponco . ' M . Scobach hna loft St .
