The Conditions on which France De-
sires Peace.

PARIS, September 10.-The RepubiiP,e
Francdise says France desires peace with
China, and has no wish to meddle with
Chinese affairs, but China must not inter
fere with those of France. France will
insist upon maintaining protectorate
over Anam, which will in no way preju-
dice Chinese interests. 1t asserts that
France is willing TO recognize the honor
airy suzerainty OF China in .Anam, but
cannot admit of the co-existence in Ton
quin OF French protectorate and Chinese
Jurisdiction that a rectifcation of the
frontier will be necessary, with one point
for the purpose of trade, and that Il propo-
sition for q neutral zone is inadmissible.
The RepmGlique Francaise contends that
these terms should give satisfaction to
China, and the Marquis of Tseng will
incur heavy responsibility if he refuses
to accept such reasonable conditions.
