LONDON, Nov. %. Especial to the New York
WOrd.)-A Berlin despatch of TO day says that,
according to the latest information received
from Versailles. incessant exertions are directed
to the formation of second outer line of invest
ment, to cover the operations of the inner line.
The strategy OF D'Aureles is understood at Yer
eailes, and has been met by q counter move
ment, with its centre at Orleans. D'Aureles
has extended his lines, both north and south,
intending to enclose the Germans on both
fanks, and the latter have executed similar
movements, falling back at the same time to-
wards Paris. D'Aurelles' line Is now said to
extend from lie Mans through Vendome, Or
leans, and BOurges, to Nevers. His main BODY
rests along this line, while it is feared that a
large section of his force has passed north to.
wards Evreux. His line also extends from Or
leans to ADgerville, and in the triangle whereof
Vendome, Orleans, and Angerville the
points. The German line extends from Cha
teauneuf through Chartres aud EtampeS to Fon-
tainebleau.
The belief in Downing street is that Russia,
in Difference to the united opinion of the great
powers, will withdraw the pretensions advanced
by Gortschakoffs note and.express her willing
ness to refer the question at issue to confer
ence, which will not be summoned until after
the termination of the present war. II is be-
lieved in quarters that Italy will ultim ately
join Austria and England in resisting Russia.
A Brussels telegram of to-day says that
Paris letter of November ID, which came by
balloon, states that the city is quiet and perfect
order prevails. The attitude of the population
and troops is excellent, and there are ample
provisions for three months. There were lately
no serious engagements, and nothing has oc-
Cured except Insignificant cannonades. Great
events are expected within a few days.
LONDON, Nov. 22.-(Special to Y. Tribune.)
A st. Petersburg despatch Of to-day says that
and enthusiastically adopted an address of
thanks to the Emperor for Gortschskoff s cir
cular.
Tours despatch of to-day says:-"A de-
spatch from the Army of the VOsges relates that
400 men from the 'DOubs' and other battalions
under Ricciotu Garibaldi, attacked ChaEilon
west of Autun, at six this morning, The place
was occupied by $50 Prussians, who had ex-
pected reinforcement that day of 400 men.
The enemy was routed, leaving 100 dead, in-
Guiding two colonels and one major. One hum
ten officers, and munition and baggage wagons
were captured. Four French soldiers were
killed and twelve wounded"
correspondent writes from Garibaldi's
headquarters, at Autun, on November 18:-The
reported quarrel between Garibaldi and the
Franes-treurs is utterly unfOunded. Large
numbers OF the latter throng the headquarters,
asking to be placed under the Generals sons
command, from Marseilles and the departments
of the Jura, Saone, and Loire, even faster than
equipments can be supplied. The General is in
good condition, and the spirits of his men have
greatly improved. Difficulties continue to exist
between him and the Autun priests, most OF
whom are either Bonapartists or Prussiau
spies, but military matters are nevertheless
growing daily better.
The Italian battalions are magniicently Or
ganized and disciplined. Great activity pre-
walls in various directions. The French jea-
lousy toward Garibaldl is still maintained al
Tours and elsewhere, but no longer paralyzes us
Gortschakoffs answer to Granville left st

Gortschakoff's circular was a surprise to Bis

tent by the civilities shown to Odo Russell
during his journey and on his arrival at Yer
sailles.
