THE PEACE WITH CHINA.

REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.
PARIS, THURSDAY MORNING.
The Moniteur publishes a despatch from Baron

Gros, dated Pekin 7th ult., received via St. Peters-
burg, confirming the signature of peace. The
Shanghae ultimatum had been accepted by the
Chinese. The ratifications of the treaty of Tien-
tsin had been exchanged. Sixty millions of francs
would be paid to France as an indemnity. The
emigration of Coolies had been authorised by the
Chinese Government. Churches, cemeteries, and
their dependencies, which formerly belonged to
the Christians in the whole empire, would be re-
stored. ATe Deunz and Dwaine Salvum were to
be sung in the cathedral of Pekin after the replac-
ing of the cross on its summit.

The Conslitutionnel publishes an article signed
by its chief editor, M. Grandguillot, on the question
of Austria and Venetia.

M. Grandguillot states that solutions of that
question are everywhere sought after, because it is
instinctively felt that a decisive crisis is approach-
ing. "All Europe seems to have apprehensions for
the coming spring." He is convinced that the
wisdom of the Government of the Emperor will
know how to prevent a struggle henceforth, with-
out any object. The situation of Austria in Venetia
is deplorable. " Everything is possible in Venetia
except that which now exists."
M. Grandguillot expresses his conviction that
Austria, who knows how provinces are gained, will
also remember how they are lost. He believes that
Baron von Schmerling sees things in a different
light from General Benedek, and that the Baron
has already weighed the chances of a new struggle.
The lirdniteur contains a decree remitting all
condemnations which have been pronounced for
offences, and for infractions of the law in connexion
with the press, and nullifying all prosecutions
which have been commenced.
