to sweep every avenue radiatng from the arch.
There Is also 3 strong guard Of infantry, with
arms fled, bivouacked 10 the Vicinity. The SOL
diers are singing from song books by the light OF
the camp fires. There Is much drereI ce in their
temper, some fraternlzing with the 6louses ex'
changing cigars and drinking wine, while others
will not allow strangers near their fires. All are
boasting Of the conquest Of Aisace and Lc-- 'lne,
yet are glad that the war is over, that they may
get back TO the Fatherlaud. No one Is allowed
under the arch. In the Place de la Concorde
there is strong guard OF Bavarians lying on
the ground in front of the gates Of the Tuiieres.
