and the Empire by imperial troops,
backed by the armies Of Germany.

written acceptance Of his terms by

session of his government, and that if

of Paris only, and not the armies OF

is the last and only chance left him for

French, after the fall of Paris, would
result IN the immediate restoration Of

ell Surrender of Paris-EcjOicinS
at Berlin.
The Herai{S cable special from Ber'
lin, Of the 2jth, says: The report of
the arrival OF NJ. Favre at Versailles,
and that he was received to-day, created
great excitement, although at present it
is not officially confirmed
! As soon as news Of the intended capt.
ulation was spread abroad, the streets
were filed with joyful crowds. Num-
bers of people repaired at once to the
Palace, in hopes to see the Queen and
hear from her lips the glad intelligence
promising a speady return of peace.
They were disappointed in their eXpec-
tations, as no telegram had reached her
Majesty All public Offices and busi-
ness generally was suspended, employees
being anxious to gather the news. The
general belief in well informed
circles is that the rumors of
negotiations looking toward the
capitulation are true, from the fact that
Jules Favre's presence at Versailles
is undoubted, but some believe he may
have gone there in hope Of obtaining
military pass 10 the London conference.

only few days OF full rations are lett
in Paris. At the war office great prep
arations are making for the conveyance
and reception oi a large number Of per
sons at different locations designated.
