The special correspondent in Paris who wro to by

thus
The attacks on the government continue, and are,

government possible under such conditions? It is
OF the last Importance that the government should
make peace, and here are set Of men who declare
that they shall not make peace on any terms; who
reproach the Ministers bitterly for entertaining tn
question ofpeace nd yet these very men begin to cry
out for equal division OF food among u.s. and would
embarrass the government with distu rbances. II
anything goes wrong these are the people who are
to be feared.
The government offcers are doing their very best
but the reds are getting louder louder each day.
In their dissatisfaction they threaten seriously to
hamper the government, and 1t may be that before
long Paris may regard the incoming Of the Prussans
as lesser evil than their supremacy.
We arc doing well enough about provisions and
supplies. The government fixes the price Of meat,
which is cheaper, dare say than in New York; 1t
Is not yet more than twenty cents pound. There
is no scarcity Of animal food and the supply OF bread
Is unlimited. For wine the Prussians outside NAV
envy US.
The city seems unusually healthy; even the small
pox has disappeared or ut least we hear nothing Of
it. The people forget to be III in the midst Of war.

OF Favre from the Prusslan headquarters but those
well Informed have slight hopes OF his success.

that careless galety characteristic OF the Ffench
we are sad yet hopeful. Don't suppose we expect
to escape from the consequences OF war into

macus having paid a visit to celebrated
monastery in Egypt, which contained three
hundred and thirty monks, was particular
~ struck with the piety of the cook. As he
saw him always recolleeted and bathed in
tears in the midst of his occupation, he asked
him what was the means to which he had
recourse to maintain his soul in q state of
recollection and conjunction. "When I
wait on the monks" replied the good re-
hgious, al consider that am not serving
men, but God himself in the person of His
