Title	Letter from Queen Victoria to Lord John Russell
Date	28 February 1849
Writer	Victoria, Queen
Addressee	Russell, John, Lord
Description	Queen Victoria has read Lord Ponsonby's despatch, and thinks that, in spite of his tone in his conference with Prince Schwartzenberg, the Austrian Government has a good right to ask an assurance from the Mediating Powers that they will not again propose at the Brussels Conference a basis of mediation which the Austrian Government has formally declined. She reminds Lord John of Baron Wessenberg's note of 3 October in which he stated the grounds on which he must decline a mediation on that basis. The Queen asks why the Government does not give Austria the declaration which it makes the condition of the appearance of the Austrian Plenipotentiary at Brussels.
