government would ga about eighty votes in
the election. The maority said he, will be
divided on the following iay, for it is not
qulteareed on the princpf onts which Is
tne overthrow of the Marshal. Many will
hesitate as soon s it becomes certain that the
Marshal will not resign, and a reign of vexa
tious annoyance will commence. The Mar
shal, certain of an affirmative result, will
then seek the co-operation of other elected
bodies, which are the issue of universal suf
frage. In the Councils General afterward
there will be a compromise; the Left Centre
will rally to the Marshal when strengthened
by a plebiscite or other such means. There
is no trouble in the future, and all will be
arranged more easily than the most confident
believe.
M. D. E. Girardin felt assured that the
Marshal would be terribly defeated. The Re
publicans will have more than 400 members.
The Marshal, who prefers to remain at the
head of the government, not because he likes
it, but because his wife will not give up her
position, will then, on second thought arrange
natters with the Republicans. All he will
need to do is to select as members of his
Cabinet a ministry known to be devoted to
the Republican ary. MacMahon can easily be
convinced thatthe Republicansdonotthreaten
the social order of the country. No troubles
can come except from the government, which
ma create them either by its present atti
tude or by calculating upon the effects of its
own intimation. If Mac ahon should abandon
his post or die before 1880 M. Grevy would
be placed in his position for ad interim, and
there exists every reason to believe that in
1880 M. Gambetta will be charged with the
executive power.
Edmond About believed that the result of
the election will be a large Republican ma
jority of at least 400 votes the consequence
of which would be a return f0 office of all the
men who have occupied positions durin the
past seven years. A Dufaure Ministry will
be the first cuisine. Then young men, ac
cepting accomplished facts, will join the Re
publicans, and the republic will receive these
recruits joyfully, and they will complete the
personnel necessary to every administration.
Marshal MacMahon will return to his estate
in the country, leaving the Presidency to M.
Grevy.

3 WAR NOTES.
THE ROUMAWIANs ARE TIRED O WAR
AND WANTTO WITHDRAW.
Chevket Pasha in Plevna-Disease in the
Turkish Army-Peace Negotiations.
LONDON, Det. 14.-It is the belief in well
informed circles here that Austria is address
ing Turkey with a view to negotiate for a
speedy peace. Inthis, however the Emperor
Francis Joseph is alone, for Germany and
England have not made up their minds to aid
in such an effort. They are evidently wait
ing the result of the French elections, which
may affect the question of European peace to
a very great extent.
Condition and Lesses of the Russian Army.
LONDON Oct. 14.-A special correspondent
with the *ussian army before Plevna sends
very discouraging accounts of the condition
of the Russian troops, though he adds that
he finds them in much better condition than
he was led to believe they were when he was
in Bucharest. The state of the field hospitals
is reported as particularly distressipg. Up
to the end of September the total number of
deaths are said to have reached at least 47,000
men. The sick, wounded and dead, since the
passage of the Danube, number not less than
Chevket Pasha at Plevas.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 14.-Chevket Pasha,
concerning whose movements there has been
some uncertainty, now telegraphs from
Plevna under date of October 12: 'I have ar
rived at Plevna and interviewed Osman
Pasha. A third convoy has entered Plevna.
There is no force of the enemy on the road
from Plevna to Orchanich, which is guarded
by troops stationed at the principal .points."
Comparative Strength of the Armies in
Bulgaria.
LONDON, Oct. 14.-The Times' war summary
contains an elaborate computation of the
strength of the Russian army of the Danube.
The conclusion is that only 200,000 men have
crossed the Danube of whom 60,000 have been
disposed of by battle or disease. Of the Im
perial Guard only 60,000 will reach the front
fit for duty, so that as reinforced the army
will again amount to 200,000. This Includes
the Roumanians, but excludes the Dobrud
scha column of 30,000. The writer estimates
Osman Pasha's army as reinforced at 100,000,
and Suleiman Pasha's at about the same, so
that the two combatants have about equal
forces.
Rsumania Clamorous for Peace.
LONDoN, Oct. 14.-At the present moment
the discontent in Roumania is quite marked.
The Roumanian press are clamoring for the
withdrawal of that principality from the war.
The people are just now fnding out that
over one-third of the Roumanian army has
been placed hors de combat in the battles in
the front of Plevna and the greatest grief
and consternation has prevailed sinee the
actual truth has been found out. In the
meantime the Russians are concentrating a
heavy force near the Laive, where an
attack from Suleiman Pasha is looked for.
The seige operations, under the direction of
Gen. Todtleben, the.new chief of staffare go
ing on around Plevna, in spite of the wintry
weather, which has already set in.
Pteparing for the Winter.
LONDON, Oct. 14.-A Bucharest dispatch
says the whole Roumanian army before
Plevna has been provided with winter
clothing. _______
Schlpka Pass.
LONDON, Oct. 14.-Turkish reports from
Schipka represent that military operations
are entirely suspended by the weather.
Zimmerman at Last Heard From.
LONDON, Oct. 14.-Ibrail advices of the 10th
instant, state that Suleiman Pasha has de
tached 30,000 men in consequence of a move
ment of Gen. Zimmerman.
Disease In Suleiman Pasha's Army.
LONDON Oct. 14.-A Bucharest dispatch
says that Intelligence from Biela states that
Suleiman Pasha's army is decimated by
typhus fever.
