LONDON, October S.-There is great sur

embassy, at the shipment of arms from the
United States for France.
The Examiner appeals to the great
Powers to prevent bOmbardmenty OF
Paris.
The journal de Brurelles is responsible
for the story that negotiations are now
pendin. between the German government
and Napoleon, backed by Russia, the object
being to prevent the establishment of the
French Republic.

LONDON, October 8.-We are told by cor
respondence from the headquarters Of the
King of Prussia that guns for the siege OF
Paris are in place, and in another week the
assault will begin. 1t is believed the as.
sault will begin on the anniversary of the
battle of Leipsic, the sixteenth. The Ger
mans count on being in Paris by the
nineteenth.

time. the French are beginning to make a
show of successful resistance, opposing step

corps now in the EOsges. The near ap

The ministry manifest no intention of
dread and anxiety.
