LONDON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1870.

TIM despatch of Lord GRANVILLE to Lord
A.UGCSTUS LOFTUS, which reaches us through the
channel of a German paper, will pro-
bably be read with satisfaction by the majority
of Englishmen. Lord GRANVILLE writes in
fair and temperate tone, but does not fail to press
his arguments strongly upon the Cabinet of Berlin.
He propitiates the Germans by acknowledging
that they have gained the vantage ground
by fair force of arms, and he concedes that they
have had the moral support of Europe from
the outset —first, because they fought to repel
a foreign invasion ; and sooondly, because they
strove to maintain the right of a great nation
to develope itself in the manner most favourable to
its capabilities. Ha contends, however, that the
glory of their achievements would be materially
heightened if it could be said that the
King of PRUSSIA exhausted every effort to restore
peace before attacking Paris, and that the conditions
of peace which he proposed were just, moderate,
and in harmony with the policy and feel-
ings of the present ago. It is evident,
says Lord GRANVILLE at an earlier part of his
dispatch, that the war has already displayed features
which concern not merely the belligerents but
Europe at large, and in case of its prolongation this
is likely to be still more plainly shewn. Count
BISMARCK'S own quiet anticipation that the prolong-
ation of the struggle before Paris will result in the
death from starvation of hundreds of thousands of
persons, is not such as Englishmen can
share with indifference. The bombardment
of one of the foremost cities of the
civilised world, though not without military prece-
dent, is so terrible a catastrophe that every man not
carried away by the excitement of the contest shrinks
from it. It is impossible in such Oases to confine
the suffering inflicted to the purely military classes.
There will always be thousands and tons of thousands
of non-combatants on whom the weight of the bur-
den falls, who, powerless to prevent the declaration
of war, powerless to stay its progress, are yet called
upon to bear their share of the terrible retri-
bution that awaits the reckless shedder of human
