In summing up the prussian military situation as
1t existed on the 18th OF November, the Continental
Correspondent says 1t is but the will OF the gen
erals that postp0nes the attack upon Paris which
every consideration Of humanity prompts to save
from the horrors OF bombardment; but If the win
ter grows severe and sickness increases IN the Ger
man camp 1t Is very questionable whether the
consideration due to the welfare OF their own men
will not overcome the compassion the German gen
erals may feel for the population OF Parls.u
Several superior officials Of the former admlnis-
traton OF Versailles have been arrested for carving
on secret communications with Paris, and for
violating the regulations laid down by the German
authorities.

Earl Granville went to windsor at eleven O'Clock
