Failure OF Negotiations for
r Peace.
ALL FRANCE ARMING.
No Signs OF Surrender of
StrasbOurg.
INSURRECTfON IN TURKEY

| New YORK, September 25-A special
to the World OF the oath, from London
says
Jules Favre returned to Paris Friday
morning having previously, by permits,
sion Of the Prnssians, notified the Gov,
ernment al Tours ofthe failure in the at,
tempt to effect a termination of The
war.
The Southern part Of France is one
vast camp The population from the
Alps to the Pyrenees are arming.
The Message Company have sent
large quantities OF stores, firearms, and
ammunition to the inhabitants
Marseilles, Nice and Severn are
arming for defense
There is no truth in the report that
the army Of Paris had revolted. The
story originated in the small arm prac-
tice firing of the new troops Gen. Trochu
was drilling.
A dispatch from Paris announces
disturbances in Paris, particularly at
night, fermented by parties Of robbers
and murderers and partly by hostile
emissaries. There has been a number
Of attacks on houses and particularly
on the hotels in the Champs Elysees,
but Gen. Trochu is adopting very severe
measures and will doubtless suppress
them.
1t is reported that cellars are renting
in Paris at 1000 francs, as places OF
refuge in case Of bombardnent. The
vast cellars of the Cafe Anglaise, the
Hotel du Louvere and the Grand Hotel
are fitting up into regular sub,erranean
caravansaries.
Tours will be defended after the seat
OF government is removed. The forti-
fications are completely armed and the
city fully provisloned;
Arrangements are being made for in
undating the Valley of the Loire as
soon as the Prussians appear in force
The bridge. fourteen hundred feet long,
over that river is ready TO be blown mp.
1t is rumored that sharp engage
ment occurred yesterday at Chateau
Dun, fifty miles from Tours, between a
force of German cavalry and the Garde
Mobile, in which the cavalry were
beaten off
The Army of the Loire will occupy
a position behind that river 1t is esti-
mated that this army will comprise
10000 men, with ample supplies Of
provisions and ammunition.
General Wimpf'en is reported to have
said that he could have cut through the
German army at Sedan. He had a
plan therefor, and would have executed
it but for the conduct OF the Emperor.
The efficiency of the bombardmcnt
of Strasburs and the weakness Of the
garrison have both been exaggerated.
There are no signs of surrender, nor Is
there any belief reposed in the reported
surrender of Toul The last news from
there, however, was that eight shells
per minute were falling into the town,
and that it was on fire in six places.
A Berlin dispatch reports that there
is great anxiety and depression caused
by the preparations for winter cam
paign. German accounts state that
Bismarck was not averse to make ar
rangement with Favre, but the King
to all remonstrances replied he had a
debt to pay to the memory OF his pa
rents and that France shall make peace
as she once forced Prussia to make
peace, in her capital and in the palace
of her sovereigns. He says he is bound
in honor to the Emperor not to recog-
nize his overthrow through an advan-
tage taken by his enemies or the
victories of Germany.
Advices from Constantinople say a
rebellion has broken ont at Trekala in
Thessaly, and is believed to be encour-
aged by the Russian government 1t
is feared that all Albani will soon he
in arms. The Russian fleets in the
Black and Baltic seas are reported to
be under sailing orders. 1t is under,
stood that the Khedive is in full accord
with the Russian and Italian govern
ments, and that the Colian fleet was
abont to sail for Alexandria.
