A special dispatch to the Tribune from Lon
don, September s, says: 'The following re-
por. of the declaration by the French Foreign
Minister comes from private correspondent,
who is in a position to know the facts and who
guarantees accuracy:
"Jules Favre has been appealed to for a
Quasi official sanction to the Repu blican de-
monstration in Madrid, with an intimation to
Prim that he could be President OF the Spanish
Republic"
Favre replied that the government of France
would not. at this time, make any movement
to encourage the formation OF a republic in
Spain, but would prefer that it should be de-
clared. The reasons which oblige US to refuse
Is that, il Republcanism should spread, 1t
would ALLEVIATE and terrify Russia and imperil
negotiations which are pending between the
Provisional Government and Russia, for an
alliance defensive and offensive against Prus-
sia. should the latter prove too exacting as to
terms of peace. In other words, If this alliance
were to take place, and it is on the point of
realization, Russia will move her troops at
once upon Berlin. Russia has already COM
menced to arm, and has sent troops to her
Western frontier. If you ask what can tempt
Russia to 60 into this war, Russia will answer
that the same military strength which Prussia
has directed against France will, sooner or
later, be turned against Russia, with view Of
acquiring all the German provinces of Russia.

.'Our city and country are in danger. In the
presence of the enemy all differences Of
opinion should disappear before the general
safety. Accused be he who can retain per-
sonal desires in such moment.
"The undersigned set aside all opinions save
one-that it is our duty to offer the most ener-
getic and absolute resistance, and make no
conditions save that the Republic be main
tanned. Let us be buried in the ruins of Paris,
rather than agree to the dismemberment Of
of France"
