The Herald's special correspondent at Bor-
deauX interviewed Chardourdy, the French
Minister OF Foreign 4 fairs, who said he
thought peace; still distant, as to accept the
Prusslara terms would reduce Franco to q
thlrd-rate power. Scarcely man In Franco,
rich or poo, is willing to allow the govern
ment to give mp territory. Arms are plenty;
we have offers Of more than we can use from
England alone. Three months ago it was
difficult to excite patriotism; now the only
trouble is 10 get the people to be patient.
France is now struggling for existence; If she
is crushed, England will feel the loss more
thanfkny country England cannot dream OF
the consequence if she should allow France
to be exterminated Russia wi Il then do what
she pleases in the east, and Prussia in the
west England, without single ally, Will
cease to belong to the family oil european
nations, and will be reduced to th!rd-c!ass
power.
Chardourdy then spoke in terms OF deep IN
dIgnation OF the ingratitude OF Italy, and lntl-
mated tha; the day of reckoning would surely
come for that cowardly nation. He closed oy
saying that the new leyees in the south and
southeast were proceeding with success be-
yond expectation.
