ship Of the Germans.
The aggression of France against Germany in
July last has been repelled. The French people
must have acquired the conviction that the present
power, since the destruction Of the armies which
were sent into the field against us. is not
capable OF resisting the united military forces OF
Germany. We might, therefore, regard peace as
certain. Had our unfortunate neighbor
consideration their future inseparabe from that OF
their country, such government would have seized
every opportunity to enable the nation at the head
OF which 1t had placed itself by its own act to elect
national assembly and delibrate upon the present
and future OF the country. But the documents
which will be submitted to you will prove that those
who now hold power In France prefer to sacrifice
the strength OF that noble nation in a hopeless
struggle.
The incalcuable exhaustion and waste which will
result to France from continuance of the war
under the present circumstances must certainly so
lessen the power OF the country that its restoration
The Governments, however are compelled, with
regret, to express the conviction that
peace between these two great neighb0rng
peoples, upon continuance OF which they calcu-
lated six months ago, will be all the more i'm
perilled by the remembrances which this war will
leave In France, when, by the recovery of her
own strength, OF by alliances with other powers,
she shall feel herself strong enough to renew the
struggle.
The conditions upon which the allied governments
would conclude a peace have been publicly dis
cussed. 1t is necessary that they should be COM
mensurate with the greatness OF the SACRIFICES laid
upon our country by this war, which, though under
taken without any reason whatever, was approved
by the whole French nation 1t Is above all things
necessary they should establish safe frontier for
Germany against continuance by future r1lers OF
France OF conquest.
The Confederate Governments feel they can rely
upon the North German Parliament not to refuse
the means still required for the attainment of these
objects. They are convinced that now when 1t is a

Investigation by Coroner Rollins Into the Cir
cumstances Of the Death Of Dora Marcus.
Coroner Rollins yesterday commenced an investi-
cation into the circumstances attending the death
Of Miss Dora Marcus who was suifOcated or burned
to death during the fire at 105 Division street on
Friday evening. The fire was caused by the ex.
plOsion of kerosene oil lamp in the cigar store Of
H. L. Kaufman, on the first floor The lamp was
being filled at the time OF the explosion.
Nathan Frank, brothcr-in-law Of deceased who
lived with her on the second loor of the house, de-
pOsed that at the time Of the fire he the rear
yard so rapidly did the flames spread that he was
unable to up stairs to aid his family to escapes;
the fire being extinguished deceased was found
dead on the floor the door leading to the hall
way.
Mrs. Lotte E. King, occupying the rear basement
room testified that after the fire broke out deceased
escaped into the yard, and would have been per-
fecty safe had she not returned up stairs to her
for the purpose OF saving some Of her THINGS she
could not descend the stairs In consequence of the
flames rushing up the stairway and cutting OF her
retreat; deceased was found sitting in one Of
the room, her face was covered with her hands, and
her head in an empty wash basin In the opinion OF
the witness deceased might have still been alive had
she not gone up stairs after the fire broke out.
Owing to the absence Of witnesses to show the
thcr investigation OF the case till Wednesday next

there about week, and according to statements
made by some OF the tenants, himself and friends

secured thus compelling the family in the rear base

and brick walls in the rear utterly precluded the
possibility OF escape in that direction.

and miserable construction OF the In the house.
1t is almost miraculous that more lives were not
sacrificed at the time OF the fire.
