RESULTS OF THE COMMANDMENT.

PARIS Jan. 1S.-FOur women and nine men
wounded and one killed, the results in casual
ties persons Of the bOmbardment on the night OF the
10th 10 the nth. II required $50 shells to accomplish this
work Of death and suffering The night before 2oi pro
iectes fell upon the houses in the southern suburb.
These fan in pretty much the same line, and the crcm
stance attributed TO the lay Of the Prssan guns 1t
said they set at certain angle being buried IN the
ground so az TO fix them there and then fired nj
DOM hap-hazard, into the lump OF the population 1t
must lie expected the shots will scatter. Two fresh
points, but both within the line Of range, have been
reached namely, the ueghborhood of the Place dc Bas

displacement Of number OF pavinsStones and hole
big enough TO bury horse it did 10 damage Thirty
five private houses have also been damaged-sOme very
extensively but for 1879 Shells the mischief is not so
great II is remarked that the majority OF the cas-
uates occur in the street. Five women were killed the
other day, while awaiting their turn at butchers shop
The Mayor Of the GrrondisSement-the NTIh-prudenty
pred, issued decree, Immediately after the shells
began to pour that the Prussans are now in earnest
cautioning the inhabitants against collecting in groups
This example was followed by his colleagues in the other
ACCOMPLISHMENTS. Another exceedingly useful notice
was also posted 1t based upon scientific principles
1t demonstrated mathematcay that given the position
of the Prssian batteries and the caber OF the guns
safety was certain within specified angles. Hence the
inhabitants are exhOrted avoid the northern side of
such street; the southern side Of another the western
side of third the eastern side of fourth But as II in
mockery Of the warning promulgated on the one hand
no means adopted TO prevent what are called the
queues at the various butchers and bakers shops by
methodca distribution of "loayes and fishes" among
the tradesmen least exposed the consequence
of which has been loss OF life that might probably have
been avoided. Six are reported TO have been
killed. and several others wounded while awaiting their
turn TO be served outside butchers shop in the Quarter
Latin 1t appears that NJ de MOtke has replied to the
circumstances and protests which have been addressed
TO him in relation to the Smelling OF the churches hosp
tails and public buildings He is said not TO attempt to
Justify the pounding, but alleges that the proecteS
which have inflicted the damage and the loss OF life re-
the protests stray misdrectd in the
darkness OF the night and that every morning the point
ing OF the guns is rectfed He maintains his right TO
act as he has DONE and states that he owes the French
no consideration because, since the 4h OF September
they have violated the laws Of and the principles
Of humanity This reply is difficult to understand with
out original text. II is crime for the French to
have sought to repe what they consider ince the Sedan
aair) to be invasion Of the Germans. and it Is not
clear how In rising 10 defend their heahs and homes,
they have "volated the laws of and the principles
of humanity"
