LONDON Wednesday, Oct, TO- 1870.
Correspondents at Versailles are unanimous in the
belief that the general bombardment will not be
opened for at least fortnght-untl every gun is in
position.
The Cologne Gazette says the Prussians around
Paris are quartered in the finest villas and other
private residences, sleep luxurious couches stable
their horses in the Libraries, feed the kitchen fires
with rich carvings from the houses and orange trees
from the cOnservatOries Fruit vegetables and other
food are abundant The women of Paris are forming
organization with the object of rendering all the
assistance in their power to the defenders of the city,
A correspondent of The Guardian says, though the
Prussians beyond the range of the guns of Paris
they completely encircle the city. The main portions
of the besiegng forces grouped in three more
formidable bodies which connected by tele-
graphs and good roads admitting of the
rapid transportation Of forces to any weak
point aSsalcd. 1t is said that Mr. Theirs will urge
at Tours the instant conclusion Of peace. The belief
prevails at Havre that the United States will inter
fere To prevent the bombardment of Paris.
The Vienna correspondent of The Standard says it
is generally believed that Prussia would gladly
accept any intervention which would tend 10 relieve
her from Winter campaign. Prussia has encOun-
tered immense difficulties in providing clothing
shelter, and supplies; and stress is laid on Count
Won Bismarcks reputation of the "crime of prose

The Berlin ProrinoGl Correspondence says, reports
of peace overtures 20 be received with caution.
Nothing can be accomplished until France is taught
the need of peace The Prussans viii be ready to
attack Paris no later than next week.
The Belgian Government has sent to Prussia five
thousand Germans who were expelled from France.
They will be forwarded over the border to Herbes-
