that the reports Of the troubles in Bordeaux have no
foundation The great drawback is the uncertainty OF

last night THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE Is, regret TO ada,
highly unpopular being accused Of systematic hostility
to the French NJ dc Fonviee attacks 1t as the worst
enemy France has, and it is said to be sold TO the rus
sians OF such statements soon hnd thelr level
and il is the best policy leave to rival newspapers the
Office Of enlightenng their competitors. By furnishing
information to the proper parties, things soon right
themselves Particular attention has been directed to
THE TRIBUNE in consequence Of an item OF Intelligence
having been traced TO columns the subject OF the
Russo Franco alliance. Cuttings from THE TRIBUNE IN
which the statement originally appeared carly in Sep
TENDER, are handed about, and as people OF certain
class have nothing to do but from one newspaper
Office TO another with any piece Of sensational news,
however stale the gossip kept up at wonderful rate
This however, may be said that assured iby GER
tain retailers Of exclusive information Of Russas having
notified NJ Bismarck Of her determination to march 100000

deaf ear to the solicitations Of the neutral Powers
and persist IN her design Of dismembering France.

liberty 10 promote the establishment Of republic in
Spain early in September because Russia fears Repub
hcanism and because at that moment an alliance be-
tween the Provisional Government and Russia,

day the question Of armed Intervention on
the part Russia Here leave the matter, believing
that the information commented upon and alleged
TO be given upon authority Of The Daily NecS and
The Pail MAI Gazette, Is simply stale intelligence,
which may have derived fresh Importance from
the altered aspects Of the political situation
since the astounding successes of Prussia. The
! reports from different parts Of France, from
English and foreign sources as given in the English
newspapers which have found their way into Paris
so contradictory and bewdering that do not know
what TO believe. Letters we get none In the midst Of
all this confusion COMPOUNDED" we can sec that
the Of small victory has restored the NOR
