n,,sion on the east of Paris resulted in leaving
A., French in possession of the villages about Brie
.rr.Narne. The Germans say they must retake
these villages at any cost.
The French at one time occupied line to the
night and left of 0rmesson They were driven back
With heavy loss from this their most advanced posi-
ton. The Wdrtembergers were supported 10y a
brigade Of the Second Pomeranan Corps (the Crown
Princes old corps and part Of the Sixth Corps. Both
sdes tonight desperately. The French, led by dis
mounted officers Of high rank, showed something Of
additional Ere. Had not the Wtrtembergers been
very steady while driven back, and had Prussans
arrived promptly in support, the investment line
might have been broken. In fact, the French
merely gained better foothold for future spring.
Their cat want is space to deploy their forces.
There was a very hard fight the same daynOrth
ofSt. Denis. The French sailed out against the
Fourth Prussian Corps. The attack was repulsed,
and prisoners taken by the Pussians; the loss was
beavy-sev enteen officers.
To-day, all is quiet on the southern front Of
Paris The rst shells fred into the city yester
day from Bavarian batteries near ChatillOn. This
was accidental and the Crown Prince has ordered tc
use no more guns at present with such range If the
French try more sortes there will probably be

Adviccs have been received 10y balloon from Pari.
to the SOth ult. The French held the points recoy
cred from the Prussians, and were preparing for a
further offensive movement. A food prevented Du-
Crot from crossing the Mame on the Goth, and Gen
Vinoy therefore retired. But on the 3Oth Ducrot
sumcd his forward movement, and obtained the adj
vantages on the east bank of the Marne, which have
been already reported The Prussians certainly got
possession of Champigny again, as they claim, but
The French subsequently recovered the place.
The Parisians deny that they asked for truce for
buying the dead, and declare that the demand
came from the enemy. Dupigne has been appointed

separate action and brings her proposition before the
Conference anew, to be decided on without previous
pledges. Otherwise the British Embassy is to be
