T.oxpox, April 5.~The following fs the 1ull text of the protocol ¢ The Powers who commonly undertook thc pacification of the East, and who therefore par- ticlpated in the Conference, recognize that the surest means of obtalning that object before all Is to maintaln tho sgrecmnent established and jolutly to affirm afresh the comnmon interest they take In the Improvement of the conaition of the Chiristians aud reforms in Bosnia, Herze- goving, nnd Bulgarin, which the Porte accepted on the coudition of itself carrying them Into execution. They take cognlzance of the treaty of peace with Servin. Regarding Montenegto, the Powers consldered the rectiflcation of the fronticers and free navigation of the Bojana de- sirable in the Interest of a solid and durable arrangement. Tho Powers consider the ar- raugements concluded or to be coocluded between the Porte and . the two Principalities as o step accomplished towards pacification, which isthe object of thelr common wishes, They luvite the Porto to consolldate it by re- vlacing ita armies on a peace footlog, excepting the number of troops fodispensable for the maintenance of order, and by putting fn hand, with the least possible delay, the reforms necese sary for the tranquility and “well-being of the Trovinces, the conditions of which was discuss- ed at the Conference. ‘Lhey recognize tlat the Porte has declared itself ready to realize an {m- vortant portion of them. They take cognizance specially of the clrcular of the Porte of Feb, 18, 1876, and of the declaration made DLy the Otto- man (overnment during tho Couference and since through its representatives. In view of these good Intentions on tho part of the Porte, and of Its evideut interest to carsy them immediately futo effect, the Powera be- love they bave grounds for hoping that the Porte will profit by the present lull to apply en- ergetically such ineasurcs ns will cause that ef- fective improvement in the condition of the Christian population which s unantmously ealled for ns ndispensable to the tranquility of lsurope, and that, having once entered on this vath, it will understand that (6 concerns its houor ns well as {ts Interests to persevere init luyally aud efllcaclously. The Powers proposo to wateh carefully, by meaus of thelr representatives at Constantino- ple and thelr local agents, the manuer in which the promiscs of the Ottoman Government are carrled fnto effect. If their hopes should ouee -more Lo disappolnted, aud 1f the condition of the Christian subjects of tho Sultan should not be fmnpruved §n o manner 1o prevent the return of the complicationswhich periodieally disturb the peace of the East, they think it right todeclare that suchastste of offalrs would be fucompatible with thelr fnter. ests und those of Europe In geveral, Jn such case they reserve to thcimnsclves to consider in common 04 to the means which they may deem best fitted to sveuro the well-belug of the Chplstlan population aud the futerest of gene eral peave, Done ot London, March 81, 1877, (Hlgued) Mounsres, EUST, L.

GERMANY., BISARCR’S RETINEMENT, LoxooN, Aprll 5.—A Berlin special referring to the retirement of Dismarck says the Cabtnet will probably experience some difficulty In dispatching ordinary adminlstrative business when deprived of thelr chlef. There is no doubt the Conscrvatives and Ultramontanes hopu to profit by Prince Blsmarck's retirement to procure n change of system, yet there s Hittle chance of the realization of these expecta- tions. Prince Blsmarck’s general programme is too nccessary to be abandoned . by the Emperor ond tho nation. Not even an absolute rupture between the Cablnet and Liberals could produce such a result, as such o rupture were it to occur would more likely arlse from Parliament surpassing the Cabinet In con- servatism relative to commercia) affairs than in political liberallsm. The prospect of the Con- servatives obtalifug power is thus very small {n- deed. Nelthier will the Particularists profit b‘y the retirement of the Prince, German unity fs tou firmly based on londs, puwer, and necessity to permit of being curtailed Ly the reslrement of an fudividual, Anuthier Berlin special says: *tIt §s now propused that for the time of Prince Blsmarck's retirement, the Viee-Chan- cellor be appolnted First Minlster of the Crown, with Iullrenmml responsibility, This requires the sanction of Parlimnent, and a motion will bo submitted to the Relchstaz upon jts reasscin- bllnf:. ‘The Prince does not, huwever, Intend to await the declsion of the House, but proposes to leuve befure it teassembles, I the weatlier will perwit.
