GENERAL UHRICH WOUNDED,

HAVRE,. THURSDAY.
The Journal du Havre says :—According to ad-
Zle2s received from Strasburg, General Uhrich has
been Wounded in the shoulder and in the foot.
:The
defence continues with the same heroism. In
c)uBequence of the efforts of the besiegers, General
Ti ktrich
asked the defenders of the city if they would
listen to the proposals of the enemy, but the Stras-
bturghers answered unanimously that the place must
00 defended to the last man and the last cartridge.

THE ATTACK ON PARIS..
tEittAic, SEPT. 23, 10 a.m.

The (*deli Staatsanzeiger says that the southern
portion of Paris is commanded by the Prussian guns
on the heights of Sceaux, therefore, General Vinoy's
defence in that quarter, after his defeat near the
forts of Charenton and Bicetre, cannot be very
protracted.
St. Denis cannot be attacked without A regular
siege, and will probably be left alone.

Vincennes seems to be abandoned and under-
mined, the defences consisting only of masonry, and
are commanded by the neighbouring hills.— Times'
Second Edition.

Communications which have struggled through
from Paris represent the present of affairs to be far
from satisfactory. the Reds are more than ever
unmanageable, And fear is even expressed that dis-
sensions will arise sufficiently serious to rui❑ the
French cause. These desire all peace negbtlations
to be broken off. Supplies are, o course, abundant
at present.

The German left wing has debouched far from the
south in advancing on Paris, in order to keep in
check the forces assembling at Lyons. For the
same reason it is most probable that the attack on
the city will be made from the smith ide. The
French have paid much attention lately to streng-
thening the north=east front, but have neglected the
south and the west.

The Etoile Belge says the interview between M.
Favre and Count Bismark was agreed to on the
part of the Germans only, because a refusal might
be interpreted as a desire to restore the Emperor:

THE PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
BERLIN, THURSDAY.

France will have to give up the 23d Department,
with Metz and Diettenhafen (?) and the whole of
Alsace. On the part of the Germans, tilt capitula-
tion of Paris is the condition upon which they will
grant an armistice.—Manchester Examiner.

BERLIN, SEPT. 22 (11.43 A.m.)

M. Jules Favre is to-day at the Headquarters of
the King of Prussia, and -Count Bismarck is discus-
sing with him the propriety of convening the Repre-
sentative Assembly, which is to declaro whether
France authorises her existing Government to treat
for her, and recognises engagements undertaken by
it —Times Telegram.

BERLIN, SEPT. 22, 2.40 p.m

•
Official advices received here from the King's
headquarters report the arrival and reception of
M. Jules Favre at Ferri6res. The first point con-
sidered in the conversations between the French
Foreign Minister and Count Bismarck was whether
the Constituent Assembly about to be elected could
be relied on to recognise any agreement made with
M. Favre, on behalf of the Provisional Government,
as binding on the state and nation. M. Jules
Favre is understood to offer as terms of peace on the
French side complete indemnification for the costs
of the war, demolition of the fortifications of Metz
and Strasburg, and the surrender of a part of the
fleet.—Daily .News Telegram.

THE OPERATIONS OF THE
GERMAN ARMIES.

BERLIN, SEPT. 21.

The official Staats-Anzeiger of to-day contains a
summary of the military situation. The investment
of Paris is completed to the extent designed by the
strategy of the assailants. The troops on march
to take up their positions encountered no
serious resistance, except on the south side of the
city. Attempts at defence by fighting in the open
field have been completely frustrated by the
defeat of General Vinoy 's divisions on the
19th inst. The bombardment of Toul continues
energetically since the 10th inst. The firing from
the heavy siege guns is incessant. The railway
from Frouard, which turns Toul, approaches com-
pletion. The corps investing
.Vionville has been
greatly molested by daily sorties from the fortress
and attacks by Francs-Tireurs. At Metz; during
the last fortnight, nothing important occurred,
except a sortie by a French corps along the Stras-
burg road ; the engagement lasted only a few
hours, and ended at dark. A Prussian force
occupies Mercy-le-Haut. At Strasburg lunettes
52 and 53 have been taken, thus securing the suc-
cessful running of parallels for storming the inner
fortifications and final capture of the place.
No French ships of war remain in the Baltic.—

TOURS THREATENED,
TOURS, SEPr. 22 (6.30 P.M.)
The Prussians appear to relinquish the movemen
on Orleans.

The Conseil-G6n6rale of Calvados has voted three
millions for the national defence ; the city of Lyons
ten millions and 200,000 men ; and Lille a conside-
derable sum for regular troops and volunteers.
Fresh volunteers are daily arriving. Five hundred
soldiers who escaped from Sedan have succeeded in
entering Toul.
SEPT. 22 (4 P.M.)

The Uhlans have already passed Orleans, on their
way to Blois. It is feared that the enemy may come
to Tours, and arrangements are being already made
in the view of such a contingency.

The Director-General of the Post-office will be, it
is understood, transferred to Pau, if the Prussians
should occupy Tours. In that case the Provisional
Government will remove still further to the south-
ward—probably to Toulouse.
Great commissariat and artillery trains are pass-
ing through Tours to the northwards.-7elegraph
Telegram.

THE SIEGE OF STRASBURG.

COLOGNE, SEPT. 22.

The commandant of Strasburg is confined to the
citadel, the only place of refuge now remaining. The
surrender of the town is hourly expected.
The Bavarian troops yesterday captured 1,000
prisoners at Montrouge, near Paris.—Lombard News
Company's Telegrams.
" MUNDOLHEIM, SEPT. 22.

"At 11 o'clock last night a bridge of boats was
made to the 52nd lunette, which the enemy had
abandoned.
"As we entered the lunette the enemy opened
strong fire on us. The 34th Regiment and Lissa
Landwehr Guards Company held out in the lunette,
and effected a lodgment. Our losses are not in-
considerable. Major Quitzow is dead. In the 53rd
lunette we took five guns."—limes Telegram.

THE FIGHTING NEAR PARIS.
FERRIERES, SEPT. 22.

The telegrams despatched from Paris within the
last few days, auLouncing different engagements
to have taken place, are all inventions and without
any sort of foundation. The only thing true in
regard thereto is, that on the 20th instant an
encounter occurred near Villejuif, south of Paris,
between three French divisions, under General
Vinoy, and Bavarian regiments supported by
troops of the sth German Army Corps. The
French fled in wild confusion, leaving seven guns
and upwards of 2,500 men in the hands of the
victors. Discipline among the troops in Paris is
very loose, the men shooting their officers.

DETENTION OF GARIBALDI:

MARSEILLES, SEPT. 22.

It is rumoured that Garibaldi is virtually a pri-
