War Items.

The Telegraph says it is certain
that Russia has sixty iron clad gun
boats in tue Black Sea ready for
use.
The Times in an editorial article
on the situation is disposed to be
lieve that the war will not by any
means, be ended when Paris is ta-
ken, so intense is the bitterness of
the French.
Advices are received Of the cap
ture Of the German vessel Fenna
Joanna by a French gunboat.
An official report shows that the
supply Of Provisions is sufficient
to give fresh meat, bacon, bread
and dried vegetables, in all two
pounds Of solid food per day, to
each inhabitant until the 29th Of
January,
The Worlds correspondent at
Versailles, writing on the IL, says :;
Moltke said yesterday that Paris
will be able to hold out almost four
weeks longer. ! deplore the folly
of tie French in refusing to yield,
and the necessity Of devastating the
country. The opinion Of the army
concerning The entry Of Paris coin
cides with that Of Moltke.
A dispatch from Lyons announce
that the mutinous soldiers Of the
Gard Mobile have been tried and
thirty Of them.
1t is said a number Of documents
were found in a balloon recently
captured by the Prussians which
seriously compromise the neutrali-
ty Of Switzerland. A note from
tie French Government thanks the
neutral Powers for their late inter
yention in behalf Of peace The
note says the acceptance Of the
harsh Prussian terms would have
been virtually subscribing to our
own subjugation.
Fayette County herald. [volume] (Washington [Washington Court House], Fayette County, O. [Ohio]) 1860-1???, 1870-11-17

The victorious career of the Ger
mans in Franco seems to have been
interrupted at Orleans. The dis
patches announcing an important
French success in the neighbor
hood Of that city are so positive
and particular that we do not dis.
credit their general import. We
have also a regular Associated
Press dispatch from London, stat
ing that there have been "impor-
taut French successes before Paris, y
some Of the German camps having
been taken If we may credit this
Intelligence without reserve, it is
Of the highhest consequence. The
hopes Of the French have been
that they would be able to organize
an effective force in the South, and
discipline the forces in Paris, so
that they could win a battle under
its walls If they are enabled to
IN Ike head AGAINST the Germans
for short time, they will develop
a force that will give the war a
more destructive character than it
las yet assumed. 1t is possible
that the Germans have been under
estimating the ability OF the French
to organize armies, and that they
will suffer some temporary reyers
es. The news Of the progress Of
the war will be awaited with more
anxious interest than at any period
since the battles on the Metz and
Verdun road Gin Commercial
