Iavre says the Prussians continue to
violate the armistice, and still exact
contributions from the people. Where
districts are unable to pay, the Mayors
are arrested as hostages.
| Tho EThn qava that Prince NADOlcOn
| will make London his permanent resi-

The Paris press anticipates bloody
scenes should the Prussians persist in
making triumphal marches through
the city.
! NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-The Worlds
special from Bordeaux, dated the 18th,

the Republicans. -Four hundred and
eighty-one delegates have arrived. a

| VERSAILLES, Feb. 15.-The surren-
der Of arms by the Paris garrison has
been completed. Prudent men Of all

Of the war and no Surrender have evil

"The election of the Orleanist Princes
| is likely to be declared Waldo
The Worlds special from Paris, 18th,
says: "Favrc holds that the elections
have evinced an unexpected reaction
against the Republic. The country is
alarmed at the action of the Radicals,
who played into the hands of the Mon
