able.
LONDON, Dec. S.-The London clubs
are full of rumors of a speedy con.um.
nation of arrangements for peace and q
restoration of the Emperor. Great sig
nifcauce is attached to the manner in
which the Empress was received by
Queen Victoria at Windsor. The feeling
is strong that victory for France is hope
less under the Republic.
Advices from all parts of France indi-
cate reaction everywhae in favor of the
restoration of the Emperor. The people
are contrasting twenty years of order and
prosperity with the present misery and
anarchy. The Tours government has
proved incompetent either to conduct wal
or negotiate peace.
Napoleon refuses to give his sanction
to any schemes for his restoration al
present, saying that his part will be silent
inaciion until the Republicans either ca
pitulate or are suppressed.
