In truth the political situation at this time in England was in the highest degree unsatisfactory and difficult. Mrs. Goschen's letters to her husband from London reflect the general discouragement. A Royal Princess had told her with tears in her eyes that she had never seen the Queen so depressed. ' She was miserable about everything. No one speaks of the Eastern Question here. ' What with military disasters in South Africa, and Ireland almost in a state of semi-revolution, the Cabinet had muc...h to think of besides the Eastern Question and the enforcement of the Berlin mandate. Lord Granville, however, backed Goschen loyally. At Constantinople the proceedings of the Ambassadors meanwhile dragged as the Turks procrastinated, and Goschen occasionally waxed warm in discussion with his colleagues when they suggested their powerlessness to do anything but conform to Turkish requirements. ' If that is the case, ' he said, ' our whole proceedings are wrong. If the general tone of the Ambassadors is that Europe is in the hands of the Turk, that is an attitude perfectly inconsistent with our instructions, and now we see how difficult it is to return on the right track.
