LONDON, October 2e.-Dispatches have

restored on the basis of the Empress be-
coming Regent, have been abandoned.

LONDON, October 25.-The following is

peace or war.
General Boyer. the envoy OF Marshal
Bazatne, may have approached the En-
press with u view 10 propositions of peace
or war, which were to be submitted to
Prussia, but he was received with no more
favor than were the other emiSsaries OF
Bismarck, on q previous occasion, when

ing that the King was disposed to content
himself with two hundred and fifty thou
sand francs, with the inhabitants of Stras-
bourg included. The Empress replied,
with great energy. that SO long as there
was any question of the smallest ceSsion
of territory, she would hold herself aloof
from every negotiation.
The events of the last month have made
no alteration in her resolution, and so far
the efforts of General Boyer nave been
directed to this point, and have complete
Iy failed. Nor could the mission of Gen.
BOYER have had for It's object to consult
renderingI Metz at this moment, and that
there is only one way of conceding the
real object of General Boyer's journey.
Bazaine is confident sof the strength
OF his position and is a General who has
suffered no defeat and at the head of the
only French army which now exists, he
thin ks himself entitled to the exercise and
not q little influence on the question
whether peace shall be made or hoStilities
continue. He would gladly make himself
indispensable; would gladly be the dIcta-

treat, by taxing the lead of the Govern.

This is respectable ambition, exaggeratGd d
as 1t may be, perhaps, but IL must not be
inferred that Bazafne would rather con-
clude a peace favorable to the NapoleOnic
dynasty, than in accordance with the true
Interests of his country. There Is then no
particle of truth in the stories told about
the interview at Cniselhurst, and 1t can
