The Prussians, in conse quence of the breaking out of a rebellion within the city, have created a Government of defense which the neutral Powers of Eu rope ought lo recognize is rightful. Prus sia has alreadv recognized that Government. FAILURE OK THE A KM IS 1 Ii 1. . M. Favre savs the negotiations for an ar mistice were interrupted by the refusal of the Germans to permit the revictualiug of Paris during trrtenn-of the armistice. He says he argued with the German authorities in favor of the necessifv and-propriety of such revictUaliug. showing that without such a concession the armistice would lie no armis tice at ail, but continued war. The propo sition was therefore' rejected. The negotia tions were then brought to au. end. because they clearly showed that Prussia was seek ing to destroy the French Army, and was equally anxious to destroy ihe Faeiich peo ple, else she would not subject the non-combatants of the , ity of Paris to the horrors of famine. The neutral PrtVer of Europe had demanded that au opportunity 'lie had for the assembling of the r rvneh l.eputtes. in order that that tne question of peace might be con sidered. This demand lias been denitd hy,, Prussia1, or practically denied, by beingclog- o, ,1 with au impossible condition. T Prussian chargethat the absence of a French Government obliges her to starve Paris is false." The Prussian negotiations- brgau with a fervent respect, for the I n m il people close with a refusal of an opportunity to hear ih.-m iNJuencE or the Prussian demands, M. Favre conrludea as follows : "An ar inistiee is tbe only means whereby an ex pression of the French" people oh the ronse qnence of Imperial ertme can be obtained. Prussia practically asks us to lay down our arm as a preliminary to the consultation of the national will, and that the population of Fans. men. women and child en. shall starve pending the vote. We call right and justice to witness against them, tierrnaoy. herself, if consulted, will condemn them.
