THE WAR IN FRANCE - THE PARTISAN VICTORY AT
AMIEHS - ODo RUSSELL's MISSION PRUSSIAS
FUTURE POLICY-THE FEELING AGAINST ENGLAND.
VERSAILLES, Nov. 2S.-The opinion at headquar-
tiers is that England means nothing Dy her speaking
for Turkey but Will back down as soon as she sees
that Russia and Prussia are acting together.
Odo Russell did not come to talk over the Oriental
qrestion, but to treat for new armistlce. Yester
day he interviewed Bismarck for two hours. Bis
marck says that the unconditional surrender of
Paris would not be accepted.
The capitulation Of the city would only be per-
mitted when conditions for complete cessation Of
hOstilities had been agreed to- Thus may those who
threaten that the war will not end with the fall OF
the capital be circumvented. The Provisional Gov
ernment must bear the Odium OF making peace.
Hunger and rebellion will speedily constran them
to complete submission, and with the dLsmantling
OF Paris to an army by which so many strong places
have been made defenseless, France will be 30 COM
pletely weaponess as TO be innocuous for decade,
even should she turn to rehtting her arsenals and
replacing her artillery. Her energies should be de-
voted to the re-esablishment OF her prosperity and
the resuscitation OF her impoverished peasantry

nay The Germans attempted to encircle him by
pressing forward one force, commanded by Prince
Frederick Charles, to Glen, and another to BOis,
the centre, directly in front of ATthenay, COM
maDded by Won der Tam. The Government here
has every assurance that DAurelles strategy is adj
mirabie, and that at the proper moment he viii
assume the offensive, pierce Won der Tann's line,
and push forward towards Versailles, leaving suf
fcient force on both wings TO occupy the attention
OF Frederick Charles and Meckenburg.
