THE PEACE NEuociartoxs:—The Daily News saYs,
'oP
We learn, on authority which renders it
sible for us to doubt the correctness of the staid ment, that a preliminary treaty of peace will tied
signed, probably before Tuesday—certainly before iieo
meeting of Parliament. An armistice will be coneld.ti
immediately after the signature of this preliminary trt,; for a limited period, and negotiations with a vieW
final comprehensive treaty will be commenced injtiti
diately. We are given to understand that it is
col;
determination of the Allied powers to exercise to o 1
extent the right reserved to them by the fifth arti
si
the Austrian proposals, to bring forward addition
stipulations to the general interests of Etuope.

severed from the body. The spot where the found is only about 100 yards from the house,lll
