LONDON, Nov. 30-Noon.-The following
despatch, dated Versailles, early this morning,
has just been received here, by way of Berlin.
On Monday and Tuesday the forts around
Paris particularly those to the south of DIvry,
Bicetre, Montrouge, Vanvres, DIssy, and
Charenton, maintained furious cannonade.
AS was expected by the Germans, this inces-
SAINT firing was kept up merely to cover a sortie
in force.
On Tuesday, the Goth, the Parisians came out
towards L'Hay, supported by their gunboats in
the Seine. At this point the position of the
9th Prussian Corps was attacked fiercely.
simultaneously other sorties were made in other
directions, with the view probably to prevent
reinforcements to the 9th Corps. In all cases,
however, the French were repulsed and driven
back behind their Notifications. The entire
Prussian loss in these actions was only seven
officers anda few hundred men, while the French
lost sixteen hundred in prisoners alone.
The French have been badly beaten near
Amiens. Their army was totally routed, and
fled towards Arras. Four French guns were
captured in this engagement.
On Monday, the 2Sth, the main body of the
French army attempted to force a passage to-
wards Fontainebleau by heavy and general
attack. They encountered the 10th Prussian
ment of the Loiret, twenty-six miles north of
Orleans.
The Prussians were quickly reinforced with
the 9Th Infantry and 1st Cavalry Divisions
The French onslaught was repused with heavy
loss in killed, wounded, and prisoners, espe-
cially the latter. Failing in this attempt, the
army of the Loire has Withdrawn.
Additional Particulars of the Fight ut Beauue.
VERSAILLES, Nov. 30-Noon.-It now appears
that the greater part of the French army of the
Loire was engaged against the Prussian 10th
Corps at Beaune on Monday. From additional
particulars which have just come to hand in the
reports of commanders, there is no ques-
tion but that the defeat of the French
was most complete. At least one thousand
killed were left on the field by the fleeing
French. Seventeen hundred unwounded pri-
soners have been captured by the Germans at
the last accounts, and the number was con-
stantly increasing, as the PrussiaDs were in
close pursuit
The Sortie mt st. Cloud.
sortie from Paris was made in the direction
of st. Cloud on Monday. 1t was easily repulsed
by the Prussians, who suffered only slight
loss. The people of Versailles were terribly
excited during the battle.
villages Burned by the Prussians.
LONDON, Nov. 3O.-The Prussians have eVacu-
ated Bouzaincourt, which town had been held
by them since the 1st instant. They have also
burned the village of Lury, in that neighbor-
hood.
Attempted Escape of French Prisoners.
ANTWERP, Nov. 30.-The French prisoners
confined here recently made an unsuccessful
effort to escape. The Government has taken
precautions to prevent q similar attempt.
The Conference the Eastern Question.
LONDON, Nov. 30.-The feeling this morning
in money circles is healthful.
The Telegraph is enabled TO promise that the
conference on the Eastern question will GER
tainly be held in London.
The Times this morning urges King William
as the ally of England to urge on the Car the
folly of his pretensions which the civilized world
refuses TO tolerate.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 29.-The proposition
for the conference on the Eastern question to
be held at London is most favorably received
here.
