| A Truimvirate to Settle Terms
Emperor williams Return 10 Ber.
lin.
BORDEAUX, February l9.-Delibera-
tions are now going on in Reichlanger' s
office on the conditions Of peace. The
cession of Nice and naturalization OF
Savoy, in order to completely isolate
France, are under discussion. France
will thus be separated from Germany
10y the nentralized territories of Belgium,
Luxemburg and Switzerland, and by
the newly acquired territory and for
tresses Of Alsace and Lorraine, and
from her old ally, Italy, by neutral ter
ritory replete with obstacles to military
operations. The great object of Ger
many is to incapcitate France from
taking her threatened revenge. Bis.
marck is willing to renounce Metz upon
condition OF dismantlement, but Moltke
insists on retaining the fortress as a
necessary strategic point. Moltke also
insists upon retaining belt of territory
including Belforte. AS the people
Of this region are entirely French, Bis
marck is unwilling to insist. The ques-
ton is still under debate in the Imperi-
al Council.
No further extension of the armistice
will be conceded on any ground what
ever If peace is not concluded, and
the German terms met satisfactorily by
twelve at noon on the 23d inst, the
German armies will march south and
Paris will he treated as captured
CITY.
The number OF cannon delivered up
to the Germans falls short four Of the
number officially stated. Upon de-
manding the missing four the French
answered that mistake was made in
counting them. The Germans refused
to accept the explanation, and four
new cannon are being cast at the
foundry Of Caillot to make up the de-
| ticeiency.
A German fnancier has been sum-
moned to Versailles to advise on the
est means Of securing payment Of the
indemnity. He is of opinion that half
the sum can he collected in bullion
and the rest must he in bills of progress
sive dates.
1t is believed that the French Assem-
blv will name triumvirate, including
an Admiral and General, to arrange
terms OF peace. 1t will then pass an
electoral law and dissolve, thus shifting
the responsibility Of recognizing France
on other shoulders.
The Germans will certainly enter
Paris on the oath, and take possession.
On the imperial route every precautlon
will be taken for the Emperor safety.
The houses on the route will be occu-
pied by the director and field police.
The Emperor will lunch at the Ecole
Militaire, in consequence OF the fever
at the Tuileries, and will leave Yer
sailles directly after his return, when he
will visit the South German sovereigns,
inviting them personally to be present
at Berlin at his triumphal entry.
The Crown Prince has gone TO in
spect the second army. He returns on
the 23d.
