FRANCE.-The Red rebels have at
last nearly reached the end of their
rope, for they have been virtually
crushed by the French people, who
may now hope to establish a good
Government. The men who have
been playing what would be a farce if
it was not for the specter Of the guillo-
tine, and the actual presence of OPP
preston and robbery and the intoler-
ance and insanity of fanaticism, are
the same men who could not be con-
verted into soldiers to fight the enc
,nies of their common country. Their
courage goes 10 farther than TO raise a
riot. The men who are facing them
are men who faced the Prussians on
bloody fields, where, if they e
beaten at last, it was not until they
had struck good ard heavy blows.
They must win, and their victory will
purify France.

LAKE BIGLER AGAIN.-The Enter
prise shows bad taste and insults the
Intelligence of its readers almost daily
by its persistent but futile attempt to
perpetuate the name of the infamous
Indian nIarauder Tahoe, by affiXing it
to the beautiful sheet of water known
as Lake Bigler long before the Enter
prise existed. That paper says ''that
portion of the Lake referred to, lying
within the boundaries of Nevada, is
called Lake Tahoe in our vocabulary"
II by sour" the editor means his in
dividual vocabulary, he is right; but
if he pretends to speak for the people
of Nevada, he is wrong. From the
days that emigrants ceased to fear the
murderous attacks of the blood-thirsty
Tahoe and his predatory band, the
Sacramento Union made the attempt
to change the name of Lake Bigler.
The official maps of the United States
mark the locality of Lake BiSler; Lake
Tahoe is known to the Sacramento
Union and lis ape, the Enterprise.

VERSAILLES, April 9.-The Govern
ment troops carried Fort de Neuilly
yesterday afternoon, and crossed the
Seine at $3.50 p. M, UNDER tremendous
fire from the guns and mitrailleuses of
the insurgents. They passed up the
avenue Neuilly driving the insurgents
furiOuSly back into the city, and ad-
vanced as far as Porte Maillett. The
slaughter was great. The troops hold
a position under the ramparts. The
rebels in Forts 1Ssy and Fanvres have
ceased firing, and now the troops are
so near PARIS that they are firing shells
into the city continually. The great
est CONSERVATION prevails. The in
surgents suffered heavily.
The Government troops fought most
splendidly at N~anterrer, where Gen
eral Galifet whipped the rebels badly.
No particulars of the fight are re-
ceived.
Theirs, in a circular dated April It'll,
says: yesterday General Daimel car
ried the insurgent position at Courbe-
vote. To-day the i%nsuryent positions at
Neuilly bridge was carried. MAINTAIN

\ Radical exchange asks: "Who are
the aiders and abettors of the ku

Republican party and Congress. y
day or two ago VOORHEES,, from his
seat in the House, stated that he had
just spent two weeks among the peo-
pie of North Carolina. He had found
them peaceable and law abiding. He
returned to Washington and found
Congress in an agony of excitement
over the Ku kluX atrocities of North
Carolina. These reports are the in
ventions of Republican Congressman
and their tools. They are the clap
trap fulminations of partisan bigotS,
and without the slightest foundation

not maintain itself in power without

STEWARDS TRANSPARENT TRICK.

One of the staunchest old line Re-
publicans of this State wrote the fol-
lowing in our presence and handed it
to us for publication: 'Perhaps the
strangest ase of political effrontery
known to modern history is to be
found in the recent speech of Senator
Stewart of this State, wherein he We
hemently objectsto the donation of any
o lands as railroad subsidy, when
it is well known that he has been the
persistent apologist for the Acts of
Congress in granting large land sub
sides to the companies for which he
is the acknowledged Attorney" The
writer refers to the belief that Stewart
is the retained attorney of the Central
and Western Pacific Railroad Compa-
nies-and might have added that he is
a large stakeholder in the Southern
Pacific. These companies, through
Stewards influence, voice and vote,
have possession of all the land they
want; therefore, the Senator from Ne
vada dOes not care whether any nor
subsidies are granted or not. He has
stolen the horse, and now intends to
build a little cheap reputation for hon
esty by calling on Congress to lock
the stable door. But a Republican
Congress, for electioneering purposes,
passed a resolution against granting
lands by wholesale to corporations
once. and violated it as soon rs the
elections We're over. Does Stewart or
his party take the American people
for fools, and think to deceive them
by the same trick Il second ine? The
Republican party is not to he believed,
even if it should tell the truth; and
Stewart need not think to hoodwink
the people OF Nevada into trusting
him or his party again.

THE PROSPECTS FOR PEACE.

The conflict between the two Govern
ments now claiming to represent the Re
public-that under Favre and Trochu at
Paris, and that under Gambetta at Bor
deauX will greatly embarrass the German
authorities, and may seriously endanger
the chances for speedy peace. Gambetta
and his Government persist in adhearing
to the disqualifying features of the Bor-
deaux decree, while Favre has taken the
responsibility of modifying il. The result
will probably be two sets of delegates
claiming to represent the assembly intend
ed to be organized by the terms of peace
rendered by Bismarck. 1t seems to be the
opinion of the Germans that the proscrip-
tive character of Gambetta's decree would
fail to secure q free assembly-one that
they could with any safety recognize or
treat with, and they will, therefore, be
likely to look with more favor upon
the Favre delegates than the other.
But all these indications give but little
hope for present peace to France. Until
the German demands are conceded, her
troops will garrison Paris, and hold France
under their feet. Should representative
government secure a recognition from the
people of France and the German author
tiles long enough to comply with the terms
of peace demanded, it would soon thereaf-
ter have to undergo the severer test of
maintaining itself against the schemes of
rival governments. France, even after rid
of the overpowering hosts of William,
will prove to be the theatre of domestic
political conflicts quite as inimical 20 peace
and recuperation from the disasters of war
as the contests OIL the battlefields. We see
just now dark clouds lowering over France,
with but few silver Innings.
