The news from Europe is not so
warIikC as T:e announced last week.
Russia makes prptcnti0ns Of desire
for peace, bat it is pronounced a
sham. One million Frenchmen are
now in arms. Report comes that
Garihaldi surprised and annIhalated
5000 Prussians at CEatilli0n.
New YoRK, Nov. 22.-News from
the Luxembourg frontier, report a
decisive engagement, resulting in
favor OF the French. Ten thousand
Prussians were driven across the
Belgian frontier. Franco.Tireurs in
considerable force are in the neigh
hOrhood of Soltophell, on the Bel.
pian frontier, and have shot many
Uhlans.
Tours, Nov. GA balloon, which
left Paris on Monday, descended
here to-day. Information brought
by ravigators reports that Paris
remains calm and expectant. -
Surrender and armistice terms
are not spoken of lately, and
everybody feels confident. Rations
of meat which have been distributed
to citizens, are now restricted to fifty
FIammcs Of horse flesh aAi fresh
vegetables. The market is plentiful
and well stocked with garden pros
ducts. All single men. between the
ages of 90 and 81, have been enrolled
aud are being RAPIDLY modified into

Rumors were rife, week ago, OF
movement to form naw party
under the banner of Revenue Re
form. 1t was to have been led by
Senator Trumhull, of Illinois, as the
candidate for the Presidency in 1872.
The Democracy were ehuckling over
the prospect Justify. The Chicago
Times had counted on the Tribune So
positively in the late election that
there was no doubt of the Tribune s
championing the new mCvement.-
But the wind has been taken out of
the Democratic sails completely by
the announcement from Trumbull
that he is not i'm tie ring with any
such party organization, and the
Chicago T3Nuac assures the Times
that itdocsn't propose to advocate
the formation Of a new organization
10 furnish brains and leadership to
the Democratic party. The Tribune
js on the right track now; let it stick
to it until another campaign mt least,
The Tribune has come to be looked
upon with vast deal of suspicion OF
late. II has been so intent on car
rying it's free trade ideas that every
thing, even party ties, had been sac
rficcl To accomplish its purpose.
But having learned good lesson i'm
the late campaign We trust the Trj5-
"ne will be convinced that il cannot
force its free trade ideas upon the
country contrary to the wishes of the
people.
