SIEGE OF PARIS bEbbN-A fEAA 4 A@FA AAS1'
PREDI TED.
IoSDoS- September l2.-The siege OF
Paris may now be said TO hsve fairly
commenced.
Friendly fesling toward the French
Republic is greatly stimulated by Amerl-
cas- recognition.
The PTussian forces in detachments
form q semi-cirCle around Paris &c dis
tauce of about . miles. In this position
the army has been halted a. the firm Pc
quest Of the Russian minister in order
that King William and Count Bismarck
may consider proposition for an armis-
tice emanating from Russia and Austria.
Paris remains tranquil, and the inhab-
itants are firm in the belief that the city
can be defended. The roads leading TO
The city are ali closed and no more pro-
visions are going in. What the city now
contains must prove Sufficient Tor the
emergency.
The Prussians viii, in 2 few weeks,
march triumphantly through the streets.
The announcement Of the declaration Of
the French Repu blic has wrought great
change in the public sentiment here IN
regard to demands for compensation.
The movement in France toward free
Institutions obtains sympathy Of pow
erfrl republican party IN Prussia, who see
that influence will be used 70 modify the
claims hitherto asserted for her satisfac-
ti0n and indemnify. The proposition
comprising assursnces OF destruction Of
all f0rtiticaii0us on the frontier line, with
guarantee against their being rebuilt,
the destruction Of the fortihcatiOns of
Paris. and for eXponsts, would, without
any Cess.On OF territory, be accepted by
this uariy as quite sufficient TO satisfy
Germ an honor and provide for the main
tenauce Of the fnture peace Of Europe.
PRUssIAN GENEROSITY-BRITTsH INTER
vENTION.
LONDON. September I2.-The Standard
and other British journals urge England
to an Intervention in the Franco PrUs-
sian war, as duty and a right, the neg
lecL of which viii involve dishOnOr.
Generals Doually and LeBrun attend
the Emperor At WiihelmshOpe. The Prus-
sian authorities surrounded the EMpe-
ror's Journey 70 WflbelmshOpe with eX-
qaisiUe delicacy of care and provision for
the dignity snd feeling Of the prisoner.
Advices from Cassei say nothing in the
magninceut treatment Of Napoleon would
denote that he is prisoner. BE comes
rather s. the hOnOred guest of Prussia.
SUSPENSION OF HosTILITIEs.
LONDON, September I2.-The Prussian
army has halted twenty-five miles from
Paris, at the special request Of Bismarck,
TO consider the Russian-Austrian propO-
sitiOn for an armis.ice.
Dispatches from Paris state that the de-
psrture Of certain mem bsrs of the French
government for Tours has been indeh-
nitely postponed.
The Gaul0is also states that the diplo-
matte body have postponed their depart
ure.
By an order issued by the government
at Paris for the fertilization of Havre,
Msrseilles, DUukirk and other ports, the
quotas OF men Of large French war steam
ers are TO be filed TO their utmost, and
the vessels held ready to weigh anchor at
q moments notice.
TslegTams FROM the seat of war in the
papers here to-day are perfect chaos Of
wild end coutradictcry statements. The
reports forwarded 10 New York have
been, in the main, correct. The tele-
graphic bureau ia Paris has begun to re-
fuse to receive private kilograms for
transmission,
Garibaldi 5 expected at Paris.
The Times says France has been cured
of military dictat0rs.
The Paris cores spoudent of the T lines
saws a stubborn defense OF Paris is GER
tain if the city is besieged. The idea that
the Prussians Will walk in without diff
Guilty is entirely a mistaken one.
