Greek and Turkish Commissioners having reached Anina , where the discussions are to be carried on . The election of the future Prince of Bulgaria is exciting considerable agitation in that State , and the Russian re presentatives complain of the coldness with which the sacrifices of Russia on behalf
of Slav freedom are regarded . A resolution to advise the President to give notice of withdrawal from the Canadian Fishery Convention has been introduced into the United States Senate , aud , it is thought , will be adopted . The
Zulu chief Cetewayo has replied to the British ultimatum , offering a partial acceptance of the terms , but Sir Bartle Frcre has required a full assent . Cetewayo has collected a large force , and hostilities are expected .
