AN intelligent American now in Paris, who
has access to the best sources of information,
writes the following, in private note of the end
inst, to the New York Eoening Post:
"Here, think, the sentiment is almost uni
versal, that war must cOme-that the Emperor
is determined upon it-that it may be delayed
little time, but that it is the only termination
to existing troubles.
at is undoubtedly true that the utmost ac-
tvity prevails in all the French arsenals, navy
yards and dock yards. A large additional num-
Der of men has been employed, and the work is
prosecuted with the greatest energy by relays
ofhands, working extra hours, and night as
well as day. Arms, munitions and provisions
are accumulated and are transported exactly to
those points where, il war was to exit to-mor-
row, they would be wanted tomorrow. The
army and navy have both been reinforced
large additional numbers of men have been nd.
ded TO the army on the southeastern line of
France. am told, on what l believe to be en-
tirely reliable authority, that the government
has recently purchased 20, 900 horses; and also
hear, us rumor and which seems to be con-
firmed by some circumstances, and certainly is
credited by very intelligent and generally well
informed persons, that an army Of $4,000 men
is on its way nominally to Algiers, really to re-
inforce the garrison in Civita Vecchia and Rome,
and thus to secure an approach toward Ancona
and movement in the direction of Venice. This
reinforcement will make the French army in
Rome 10000 strong.
