Paris last night that Marshal paraguay d'Hil-
llers' proclamation against forming groups in
the streets is nearly dead letter. There is al
ways, day and night, large assemblies about the
Ministry OF the Interior waiting for news and
there are considerable groups about the kiosks
where newspapers are sold reading the news
aloud and commenting upon ii. The reason,
which missed finding out last night, why the
cafes were shut up on the BOulevards at n

The statement in the Gaulios of a secre, al

iterranean fleet has sailed ffom Brest. Its des-
tination Is unknown.
A letter from the camp at Chalons to the
Journal Oficiel represents that the Garde Mo

the enemy.
The AoniteGr says the English embassy here
has received advices that the Prussian losses at
Welssenburg were enormous; so We may hope,
continues the AOnite1r, to soon resume the OF
iensive, and cause the enemy to pay still more
dearly for his first successes.
