NEW YoRE, Dec. 5.-A Paris letter, containing
an lnter7le" with Gambetta, just before the re-
opening and sitting Of the National Assembly,
reports him as being supporter Of the CON
servatism of President Thiers. Under the pres
ent condition Of things, it Seems that both the
Radicals and Theirs prefer peace to any mon
archica1 experiment. or to the anarchy threatening
any attempted change. Gambetta and his fol-
lowers are confident that new election will
give them absolute control of the destnies
Of the nation, but meanwhile, US Theirs is
getting the credit Of paying the German
indemnity and Fostering the National resources
