@ LONDON, Nov. 4, 1870.
The text Of Earl Granville's proposal to Prussia,
looking the part OF the Cabinet OF Great Britain
to a termination Of the war between Germany and
France, has been published.
Her Majesty's Secretary Of State for Foreign
Affairs deplores the continuance Of the struggle In
the first opening lines and then proceeds review
the situation AZ presents. He calls the attention
OF the Prussian government to the complicated con.
dition OF affairs, also to the great amount OF hui
man suffering and misery which IL has produced to
and entailed on the warning peoples.
Earl Granville admitted that the military reduction
OF Paris Is fully authorized to the Prussians both by
the facts Of the present contest and the general
usages q war. He urges, however, an armistce.
ana recommends Its completion, thus enabling
France to enjoy the benent Of the convocation OF
Parliamentary Constituent Assembly and the speedy
establishment OF peace.
Earl Granville adds, In conclusion that lie believes
that his oiicia representations the same subject
to the French government win not be without
effect.
