The report is confirmed that the Or

are determined to arrest them on their
arrival a. ~ .--
A rumor, also, is in circulation that
difficulty existed between General
Trochu and the Ministers. The latter
gave way, and harmony is once more re-
stored IN the Republican Council.
The difference arose on the, -ques-
ton of the arming of all classes
of population. TrOchu stood firm in his
opposition to arming the people, con-
tending that the proposition was prema-
ture and impolitic. In the face of the
grand crisis the Ministers gave way, it
is said, with a reservation that
at more Opportune moment the subject
should be more fully discussed and acted
upon. n

you fought against forces greatly super
ior in numbers from day break until dark.

ry. When you had fred y0urlast cartridge,
worn out with fighting, and not being
able to respond to the call of your Gen
erals and officers, in the attempt TO re-
join Marshal Bazaine by the road to
MOntmedy, you were forced to re-
treat en- Sedan. In this desperate
effort, but 2, 200 men could be got together
and your General deemed an at
tempt utterly hopeless and impractical
Bile. Your General found with deep
regret when the army was reunited
within the walls of the town, that it had
supplies neither of food nor ammunition;
could neither leave the place nor defend
it. the means of existence being
alike wanting for the population and we
were therefore reduced to the sad alterna-
tive of treating with the enemy. went

to accept the conditions imposed
by the enemy. This morning, menaced
by bombardment, to which we could not
reply, l decided to make a fresh at
tempt to get honorable terms. l have
obtained conditions by which we
are saved much of possible annoying
and insulting formalities, which usages
of war generally impose, the under cir
cumstances in which we find ourselves.
