War News.

The war news from France, this week, is
not exciting. The war appears to drag,
and peace is being talked of.
A correspondent Of the Guardian says
though the Prussians are beyond the range
of the guns Of Paris, they completely en-
circle the city.
The main portions of the besieging forces
are grouped i'll three or four formidable
bodies, which are connected by telegraphs
and by good road, admitting of the rapid
transportation of forces to any weak point
assailed.
1t is said that NJ. Theirs will urge at
Tours the instant conclusion of peace.
The belief prevails at Havre that the
United States will interfere to prevent a
bombardment of Paris. The two sides of
the city not protected by the river are well
protected by the forts. The inhabitants
are determined to contest every inch of the
ground.
The Berlin Provincial Correspondence says
the reports of peace overtures are to be re-
ceived with caution. Nothing can be ac-
complished until France is taught the need
of peace. The Prussians will be ready to
attack Paris no later than next week.
At London it is reported that force of
Prussians defeated French army eight
thousand strong, at Etoile, town sixty
miles south of Lyons, and that the invaders
also occupy Vesoul, the capital of the De-
partment of the Haute-Saone, 220 miles
south of Paris. If these statements are
true, they indicate that the Prussians have
penetrated the heart of Southern France,
reaching these important points before
there was any knowledge of their advance.
The Prussian troops have occupied Epinal,
on the Moselle, 100 miles southeast of Paris,
French corps stationed there having fled
on their approach.
