GAMBTTTNs PROCLAMATION.
The great talk OF to-day is Gambetta's proclarna-
tion and the decree which disabes the BOnapartists
from sitting in the National Assembly. 1t is under
stood that the Government here is utterly opposed to
the views of NJ Gambeta and that the decree of dis
ability is not only inpOlhc but Illegal having been
issued against the orders of the Government in Paris
An announcement to this effect WILL no doubt, APP
pear officially tomorrow. and the chief object, in
deed of NJ. Jules Simons Sudden departure for Bor-
deaux was to keep the delegates there in ORDER and
to put an end to such excuses The proclamation OF
NJ Gamhetta is, however, certain to unSettie many
minds and to do much harm. Frenchmen in defeat
like IN think that they have been betrayed AFTench
defeat is always il possible Represented rs victory
or, il that be impossible ~ o STOPPING
to conquer, glorious check, victory
deferred, "victory maccOmpshcd." But If
after all it IS absolutely impossible TO call IT
victory even q victory IN disguise-if tho word de-
feat must be allowed then II becomes necessary 10
show that the defeat is not the result of weakness,
but only OF reachery. Somebody OF other ~ always
n traitor The capiulation Of Metz was treachery-
Razaine was traitor The fall of Paris is treachery
--Trochu is the traitor. The proclamation OF " the
Young Gambetta" VIII give much puEy aliment to
those Frcnchmen who are slow TO acknowledge Ge-
feat and love 10 imagine such trcachery. Fortu-
uately the Government have a dispatch from N.
Chandordy, dated the 10th January that is, three
dayt before Gen. Trochus last sortie, in which lac
writes from Bordeaux: We cannot have
any Iole Miracles and the fightful necessity Of the
capiiulation Of Paris is inevitable" The clpitu-
1ation Of Paris therefore, was recognized ne
necessity nj Bordeaux even sooner than IN Pans
itself. Unhappily at This time, when we are close
Upon the elections, and every minute Is precious
tina PROCLAMATION of Gambetta and the decree OF
Disabilities may do an immense deal OF harm,
which there viii be little time 10 cOunteract by
the DEGREES which tho Government are sure to issue
in opposition. The feeling in Paris among sound
Republicans is very strong ngainst NJ. Gambetta,
Who nv his violence docs as much hurt 10 the Re

publishes q new paper called the Not dOrire, and
