BISMARCK ON PEACE.
NEW YORK, Oct. 2e

NE 1Ohh, OCI 20.
The Herald's London special says "A
correspondent at the headquarters of the
Pru,sans at Versailles, writes under date
of October 80: II had an opportunity to-
day to hear Bisnarck's opinion regarding
the political and military situation. He
declared that the position of Prussia had
never changed from the hour of the de-
claration OF war by the French TO the
present. Compelled unwillingly to draw
the sword, he declared that they would
never sheath it until Germany was safe
from future cruel assaults and ambitious
insolence of her unprincipled neighbor
He makes the same dcclar 4tion now, con-
fident in the justice of Prussia's cause"
Said Bismarck: 1--WE anticipated victory,
but it was left to the experience of war to
teach u what guarantees would effect
ually accomplish the object we had in
view at the commencement. The blood,
treasure and suffering il cost us to win
our past victories, convinces the Prussian
nation they can hope for no full security
without retaining those territories
wrenched from Germany for purposes Of
aggression, lust and conquest Prussia
earnestly desires peace, but it must be a
peace which will give full security for
the future" In reply TO question as to
whether Germany IL able to stand win
ter campaign, he sail that people who
talk of the exhaustion Of Germany are ut
terly ignorant of the facts: 1--WE have
large resources at hand, and the hardest
work is over. While We are anxious for
peace we have no fear for the future"
Regarding an armistice, he said that the
chances of war complicated the negoti-
ations for peace Prussia is willing to
listen 20 proposals seeking tho end of the
war, from auy quarter, if they are likely
to lead to practical results in view of the
disorganiz4d state of France, no matter
whether the proposition came from the
Empire or the present Provisional gov
ernment But an armistice is useless I'M
less made so as to lead to peace.
