France. TIE necessity and use Of il have
been keenly felt by the Emperor, and it's
cordiality has been, tOa great extent, his
personal work. All shades Of public Opin-
ion in France, regard Prussia, in the words
NJ. Theirs, a bird Of prey. This Is the
first war Of the empire TO which the Four
bourgs St. Gernlain, the old legitamatists,
have sentstheir sOns. The Orleans Prince u
denied service even ~ a volunteer. That
the Socialists PARTY may see, in the defeat Of
France, means Of realizing the advancement
of their schemes, is ls,-sible. If enmities
occur, or conspiracies exist, the work n
theirs. The excitement in Paris ON the re-
oeipt Of the news Of defeats, was largely due
to reaction from the joy excited by the hoax
Of an immense Success, hut the crowds were
not cumulative, and were necessarily dispen.ed.
Public opinion had also Condemned Olli-
vier's ministry rs incapable, and upon its
resignation the excitement in great measure

,atches state there il great mourning in Der

THE DEMANDS LIKELY To BE MADE By
PRUSSIA.
The following statement, from Semi-cfiicial
source, foresha,iows the demands likely to be
made Nv Prussia in case Of the successful
termination Of the war: The time arrives
when Germany must l'e freed from French
| interference and nlenacs, and have long
,eriod If unbr,ken peace. mere change
of dynasty in France would not be sufficient
to insure this, for the next sovereign would
seek, IN soon as possible, to recover the Lost
military prestige of Fnnce, and the burden
| Of an armed peace would lie perpetuated.
Suppose France should issue from this str,ig-
gle with strength u,inpired, and with her
strong-hOlds from whence she menaces the
valley of the Rhine and the Palatenate in
tact, the war from which the inc,pacity of
| the French Generals and the bravery Of the
German army have delivered us, will be re-
| newcd. There can he no trustworthy peace
Not thus mus, this costly struggle terminate.
| We will not resign our arms until We have
| been guaranteed security against fresh con-
test whenever i, may suit the political neces-
| sites Of y French leader to resume it.
THE FEELING IN BERLIN
| il one Of unienial,le horror and depression.
| The war threatens to last, and already the
flower of the North Germany il decimated.
| The railways are laden up so as to delay the
movement Of reinfOrcenients. Boat service
| Is organizing ON the Rhine for wounded, and
three steamers already have been converted
into floating hospitals. The Amphitheatre
and Episcopal Palace, at Graves, are taken
for hospitals. ---,-z .... ..
