FEARFUL STATE OF AFFAIRS IN
PARIS.
NEW YORK, January 28.-The Iri-
bule's special from LOnd on, 23d, says
there was considerable disturbance in
Paris on the 22d. A detachment of
three hundred of the National Guards
attacked the Hotel de Vile. The
Mobiles defended it and were firm.
The affair lasted a quarter of an hour.
The official report gives five killed
and eighteen wounded.
An attempt to create a reaction was
completely suppressed. Ninoy has
accepted the command in the place
Of TrOchu on the condition that stern
measures shall be adopted to repress
disturbances.
The Radical clubs are closed. The

PARIS PROSPECT OF SURRENDER
BOURBAKI AND HIS ARMY.
LONDON, January "a dispatch
from Versailles on the 18th to the
London telegraph says the lombard
ment Of Paris continues, though slow
lv, and shells have fallen near the
Church of NOtre Dame.
Total losses of the Germans in the
three days' sOrties only 1000.
None of the German batteries eX-
cent on the southern and southwestern
sides of Paris throw shells into the
city. Fires are still occasionally kin
kled in Paris by German shells.
The number Of French prisoners in
Germany on the 1st of January was
II, ,lG0 officers and 333, ,SSS men.
The ladies of Munich have resolved
to present a laurel wreath to Emperor
William and erect a statue of Won
MOltke.
The Times says the rumOrs respect
ing the impending capitulatiOn Of
Paris are conflicting. The only posi-
tive news seems TO be that negOtia-
tiOns are in progress. Paris consents
to parIey, and is therefore ready to
Capitulate.
A correspondent Of the Times writes
from Paris that there will certainly be
more sOTties, and probably it will re-
Quire a firm hand to prevent terrible
tragedy, for Paris lOathes to sUrren-
der, to which it must be forced by its
thousands of hungry mouths.

BORDEAUX, January 27.-It Is OH
cially announced that General Clinch-
ard has been appointed to the COM
mand Of the Eastern army in place Of
1 BOurbaki, who is no longer able to

alteration, attempted, unsuccesslully,

A circular from the Minister Of the

dicates the character Of the trouble to
be encountered by those now In

would rule amid ruin, and add muir

been frustrated, aud we hope
will be until the last and closing scene

with the tidings of the disorders Of
the brutal mob there also comes to US
a rumor that the capitulation Of Paris
has been arranged for and may be
announced at any moment. We

also the beginning Of all Christian
history. Since His advent, humanity
has drawn its nOblest inspirations and
highest impulses from His personal
example, all over the civilized world.
Christianity is the mother Of the
purest elements in our modern civil
izatiOn, and will ever furnish the best
antidote against the moral evils Of
sOciety-the only true basis Of ref0r-
nation and improvement. The eX-
perience of history is repeated day by
day in every human heart which,
when troubled about the question OF
personal salvation, win find in Christ
alone pardon and peace. The infinite
lnngings Of the human heart and mind
can only be satisfied by Him who is
the way, the life and the truth.

Christie testimony to Christianity:

PHILADELPHIA, January 23.-The
Rev. Dr. Philip Schafi delivered an
able aud impressive lecture this even
ing. at Concert Hall, on the "Iesti-
mOny Of Christ TO Christianity" 1t
is universally admitted, said the
speaker, even by skepics and unbe-
lievers, that Jesus of Nazareth, by
purely moral power, accomplished the
greatest revolution on record, and
founded the mightiest empire, with
every prospect OF its ultimate tri-
umDh over ali the nations Of the earth.
Rousseau, Napoleon, Goethe, Strauss,
and Renan, though far from being or
thOd0X Christians, are agreed that the
human race-WhateYer may be us ad-
vyance4 fn the natural sciences and Ia
art-WiIi never pass beyond Christ m
the sDhere Of religion and morals.

TO suppose that Jews, Greeks and ho-

We are driven, then, to admit the
historic Christ Of the Gospels. He pre-
sents far less difficulty than any Of the
other theories. Both the founding

Can't. John ID. Adams:
The Newport and Cincinnati railroad
