As usual, they aNtcke ¶ fiercely while pfwmit tad to advance, but retreating very soon after being stopped. General rejoicings have taken place in Berlin over the late victories. The end of the war is at lug deemed near, and in consequence of the heavy German losses before Paris from the recent sorties and from sickness, people are beginning to urge the bombardment of the city, in order to hasten its surrender. There is some talk of giving expression to this feeling in an address to the King.  At Strasburg the restoration of the houses injure' or demolished during the siege has been for the present forbidden, as the streets are to be laid out dm • different plan. The savings-bank has been opened, au& was thronged on the first day by 1,800 persons.
