FRANCE MUST DECIDE AT ONCE FOR
PEACE Or WAR.
VERSAILLES, February 22.-The
Official MoRitelT says that France
must decide for war or peace immedi-
a'eIy. Delay deteriOraGes thestrength
Of Germany. France has long known
the conditions WhereOn Germany is
ready to conclude peace. These are
based upon injuries formerly inflicted
and guarantees for the future. Com
pared with the injuries, the demands
are moderate, and the longer h9 delay
the harder will be the conditions.
We hope this is understood at BOT-
deauX-n the German terms are re-
jected the war continues.

ABOUT PEACE.
Special to the New YORK Herald
PARIS, February y The police
fear that TTOchu's letter will cause
difficulties. The new ministry was
not received favorable. The Let's
appointed temporarily are too old to
transform the army. Favre should
be allowed to close peace negotiations,
and then retire. Lambrecht as Min
ister of Commerce is unpopular,
being prOtectiOuist.
A Irain left for BOulOgne last night,
but was stopped to day by the Prus-
SLAMS.
The mortality is decreasing, in con-
sequence OfimprOyed food and milder
temperature.
The destitution is still great. Four
thousand people are in the street, out
side the Mayors establishment, in the
Place PetiuO Peres, waiting for the
Mayors food. Twelve thousand six
hundred tons of food and fuel arrived
yesterday. Medicines and drugs are
terribly wanted, there being none left.
Peace is almost certain, but Won
Moltke has laid before the Emperor
his plan for the campaign in case Of a |
renewal of the war.
The word Republic has been strick- /
en- out of all public acts, and La
France substituted.
