ceivsd BY, Baron 5GeFolt, atwashington,,
in which the Prussian premier repre-
senss that the prp prploonngesahion' Of, the siege
of, Paris andiits terrible consequences of
starvation and sooinl decomposition will
be due. to the fruitless obstinancy
Of the authorities in. power there, and
not to any motive of'ambition or revenge
on the part of Germany. He holds, also,
that proposals for peace should origi
nate with France. It is stated at Berlin
that the last summons for the surrender
of Paris has been forwarded to the mill
tary authorities there, and ifnot acceded
to-, the bombardment will commence
during the present week. The efforts of
M. Theirs and others, prominent in ne.
gotiations for peace. have not yet been
abandoned, however, and the question
is doubtless not altogether hopeless

TuE LAURENs AFFAR.-The Laurcns-
Vile Herald has the following account of
the casualties in the fracas that occurred
in that County on the Goth instant:
Bill Fleming and Bill Griffin killed,
md Alfred Morris wounded, all colored
Volney Powell, Bill Riley, yonng Abe
Simmons. Wade Perrin. Young Simpson,
and one other, name not known.
Most of these we're inmates of that in
famous den "Tin Pot" Perrin was n
candidate for the House of Representa-
tives. Powell was recent conner to
this town; was one of Scott's constnbu-
larry; was radical candidate for Judge of
Probate, and Manager Mt tho recent elcc
tion, the only white man hurt. Bill
Riley was one Of the guard over tue arms
at "Tin Pot" In addition to the large
amount of ammunition and arms stored
in Crews barn, the cottage in which the
constabulary slept. in Crows yard, was
also largely supplied with Winchester
rifles.
The arms taken possession of by the
sheriff and placed in the basement of the
Court House on tho evening after tho
outbreak, were seized by the men who
came here during that night in great
numbers, probably 1000 mounted men.
The Office of the Trial Justice Crews,
in ''Tin Pot" was badly smashed and
Quilted. Except for the efforts of the
sheriff, under tho order Of the Court and
prominent citizens, the outraged citizens
who had been fred upon from 'Tin Pot, u
would have made pursuit and many livos

POPULAR DETERMINATION OF ALLEGI-
ANoE. E.-The New York Eueniug Post, an
ardent advocate of the German cause,
publishes n communication from n cor
respondent, ''Americus," apologizing
for the proceeding said to be contemplate
ed by the Government of PRUSSIA, that
of wrestling Alsatia and Lorraine from
Franco and adding them to Germany.
The spoliations which France, if sue
cessful, might have committed upon
Germany are not regarded by the Post
as any justification for wrong of the
same nature by making Alsatia and Lor-
rainc part Of Germany when the peo-
pie who inhabit them desire that they
shall remain part Of France. The
Post says: "Of the fact of their desiring
to remain under the Government of
France, we believe there is no doubt in
any quarter, and there is something
utterly abhorrent to our feelings. as Re
publicans and friends of popular liberty,
in the idea Of transferring communities
sovereign to another, without regard to
their wishes, rs if they wero so many
herds OF cattle or gangs of slaves. This
has been the practice of the conclaves of
dcspots called holy alliances and allied
powers of Europe; and it has always
been condemned by tho friends of po-
litical liberty as crime against the ma
tnrnl rights of the human race" The
Post in this expresses the sentiments of
most Americans. What the correspond
ent, however, says of tho emptiness and
worthlcssncss of plebiscites in cases Of
annexation, when the vote is given un-
der the shadow of bayonets, is no doubt
true, as it also is of other subjects be-
sides annexation, and of other CONT
nents besides Europe. It is worse than q
farce to speak Of elections rs free where
the bayonet is found side by side with
tho ballot-box.

DANGERS OF THE SEA.-A passenger
who was saved from the steamer Cont
nental-wrecked last month, while ply
ing between San Francisco and Panama
gives the following in regard TO the
dangers through which he passed:
"While we we're around the vessel, and
during the whole time we were out, the
sea was alive with sharks; their fms could
be seen sticking up on oil sides. This is
probably the reason why those who were
left on board the ship refused to leave.
When we approached tho shore, the
water WIS fairly black with sharks, and
most Of us became alarmed for fear that
we might bo capsized in beaching the
boat, and be dcvoured by them. The
breakers ran very high. Every oar was
manned, and, selecting good place, VIC
made through the surf for the beach.
The bow of the boat grounded when a
large wavo reccded, and in moment
after wave raised the stern end of the
boat and turned it clear over. 1t fell
bottom aside up and spilled us all out.
Those Of lis who fell outside the gun
wales turned the boat over and rescued
the women and children. The water was
only st-deep, and we all succeeded in
reaching shore in safety. The place
where we landed was about forty miles
above Cape st. Lucas"
