The Chevalier is of opinion that quiet
steps should be taken to gain over the Servians
from Russian, Turkish and Austrian interests.

To this end, he recommended that some one
should proceed thither to probe the state of feeling
in that quarter, preparatory to the adoption of more
decisive measures. Mons.r M thinks a negotiation
should be entered into with the Pacha of Egypt to
render him independent. This could not fail to
prove a powerful diversion
