LONDON, Sept. 23.-The Prussian Moniteur
Official organ) published at Berlin, contains in
its issue this morning two notes from Count
Won Bismarck to ambassadors of neutral
powers to the North German Confederation in
relation to the propositions for peace now under
consideration. The first of these notes is dated
September Is, in which is urged the necessity
for better and more material guarantees against
a new attack by France, and especially upon
the States of South Germany, Bavaria, Wurtem-
berg, and Baden. Hence the need on the part
of Germany of possessing those fortresses which
are now a perpetual menace
In the second note Bismarck repudiates all
idea of German Intervention for the reorganiza-
ton of France, but says if Strasburg and Metz
remain in French hands the offensive of France
overpowers the defensive of Germany. These
material guarantees alone will give peace,
while France retaining these places will always
consider truce as enabling her to chose her
own time for renewal of hostilities. Germany
asks only passive strength to resist such
attacks.
General CIuseret Recalled.
TOURS, Sept. 23.-Newspaper files and letters
arrive here spasmodically from Paris.
General Cluseret has been recalled from the

Matters at Lyons.
There is an immense supply of cartridges at
Lyons. Dispatches from that city announce
the arrival there of great numbers of French
prisoners who escaped while en- route TO Ger

more managed to reach Toul
Captive Balloons
at Paris are still in active use, enabling the
military authorities to keep sharp watch of
the movements of the Prussians. Another bal
loon from Bazaines headquarters at Metz had
fallen within the territory controlled by the
French. The balloon contained one hundred
and thirty-seven letters.
Condition of Metz.
From these it seems that butchers meat is
very dear at Metz and the army and citizens
are consequently eating horse-fesh. There is
great plenty of provisions other than meat.

is still prisoner on the Island of Caprera, and
Italian war vessels are cruising about to prevent
his escape to France.
