It la estimated that there are now 300,000 German troops around Paris. The siege ha? baeonie a close blockade, interrupted occasionally by an exchange of active hostilities. LonnoN, Sept. 27 Special to the New York Tribune. A correspondent at the Prussian head- quarters travelled from Corny to Frourar.l on September 25th with Favre's brother, who had ar rived three days previously from Paris, via the royal headquarters, with royal perml-wion to enter Metz. He was charged by tho Paris government with full powers to treat for Metz, provided Eazaine would recognize the Paris authorities and their policy. On Sunday morning he returned from Mcts and had a final Interview with Prince Freder ick Charles, having had one previous to his entor ingthecity at which the Prince had approved the roipsion. In his two days stay in Metz he had failed in his object, Eazaine being averoo to all treaties as yet, and being slightly insubordinate toward tbe new government since the appeearance of its peace proclivities. The Prince knows that for several weeks yet at least hunger will not be his ally against Metz, although disease is to the extent of several hundred deaths daily. There is not the least intention at present to attempt Metz by force, but Bimply to await developmeets at Pris, which are expected to culminate in something decisive within three weeks. No offensive movements are contemplated during those three weeks. The foreign minister who was acting as interme diary advised Favre to see Uisinarck, and make his demands in person; and accordingly Favre s iw Bismarck, and expressed to him his love for France and liberty, and his determination to accept no conditions which would render peace only a menacing truce. liinmarck replied that If he thought peace were possible he would sign imme diately, but the actual government was too preca rious and likely to 1)3 overthrown. France would be more apt to forget Sedan than she had been to forget Waterloo and Sadowa, and she would soon attack Germany again. Heing pressed for condi tions, Favre was explicit, but Bismarck averted that the security of his country demanded the re tention of a portion of the territory tho Germans now occupied, and mentioned in that connection the Departments of the Upper Rhine, Lower Rhine, and Moselle, with Metz, Chateau. Saluis, and Soissons. To the objection of Favre that the people of France would not agree to that, and he could not act without their direction, Bismarck replied that be felt conhdent of that before; but as another war was certain, he wished to make it with all the advantages possible. Favre then intimated that they might hud the pretensions of PruHBia exorbitant. He was certain that France would never accept them. She might perish at) a nation, but she would not be dishonored. The country alone cold decide upon the question of ter ritorial division, and Favre could not doubt what that decision would be. Blemarck would not listen to any proposition for An armistice. The second interview occurred at Ferrieres on September 19. On this occasion Bismarck seemed ta accept tbe Idea of an armistice, and Favre asked for fifteen days. The next day Bismarck banded Favre bis condi tions, adding that the Germans must have the forts commanding Paris, more especially fort Mont Va lerien, on the west of Paris. Favre replied that it would be more simple to demand Paris at once. Bismarck said if these terms were not satisfactory the French must seek other arrangements. Favre 5 reposed a meeting of the constituent Assembly at 'ours. Bismarck made the condition that the gar rison of Strasburg should surrender as prisoners of war. Upon Favre';indignautly refusing, Bismarck consulted the King who insisted upon the surren. der of Strasburg. Wearied with his useless ettorts Favre retired, expressing the conviction that France would fight to the last. Favre concludes, from the manner in which all bis effort for peace have been met by the Germans that they are determined on conquest. He says the interviews were not altogether useless, as they have proved that, notwithstanding that Prussia de clared she warred only against Napoleon and his army, she is really fighting the nation, which must arise (n masst, euner to uisavow tne provisional Bovernment or resist the enemy to the last. Bkblin. Sept. 27. A dispatch from the King's headquarters at Ferrieres, near Paris, says that Favre, in bis report of his interview with Bismarck, errs in omitting to state that the question of an armistice was considered preliminary to any dis cussion of territorial cessions. Bismarck actually declined to state the terms of Prussia until the basis for an armistice was decided on. The evidences of a plot for another coup d'elal projected by the Emperor Napoleon, with the as sistance of Rouher and Cassaguao, have been dis covered in Lyons. It is thought that the papers containing the details of the conspiracy were frurnea is l aris by trioiri ueiure uis uigui. Paris, Sept. 27. The following dispatch from the prefect of the Department ol boir, dated Orleans, to day, has just been received by tho Minister ol War: "The generals here, seeing they cannot resist the overwhelming lorces ol tbe enemy, com manded by Prince Albeit, have just evacuated Orleans in gooa oiaer." Tcvm, Sfpt. 27. Jules Favre to-day made an c flu-if I report to the government here of his m'i don to the PruMian headquarters in bohili'of t race. H says that a great many solution of tbe difficult i s had been proposed and rejected, and he dttei mined, at last, to make a direct move there tor, and on tbe 10th of September he demanded of Bismarck a categorical reply an to whether he would enter upon negotiations for peace. Bis mnrt k's lirt answer was unfavorable, though be subsequently asked what guarantees France co l'.d oftcr. Before Straptujro, Sept. 21. Special to the New York Tribune.) The aault, now tixed for a week hence, has been delayed hitherto to allow of the construction of good passages across the great ditch In front of the main wall. The town will be attacked at four points simultaneously. Lots have already been drawn to decide which regimrnts will compose the attacking party and which companies will form the assaulting columns. These honors are claimed by the wliolo army. The siege works are adapted to prevent great loss of life in attacking. AsMduous searches are made for mines, and two were found and emptied after the capture of lunettes 52 and 53. No further egress from the town is permitted. The last batch com prized 300 persons. A few wealthy citizens still remain. Many refugees have gone to linden, the government conveying them gratuitously. Mavkncb. Sept. 22. Special to New York Tirr.es. It is estimated that the total number of French taken prisoners 6ince the beginning of the war is 140,600. The prisoners are eubjected to the spvere Prussian rules of discipline. One French officer attempted to escape, and was tried by a court-martial and shot. In Hanover the prisoners were put at work on the canala. Among tho pri soners at Brcslau are Robert Mitchell, of the Con rtitiilii.nnrl, Paul de Cassagnao, of the 1'ivt, C. Larette and Frouert, well-known Paris 'jour nalists. Orleans, Sept. 27 Special to the New York Herald Prince Albrecht's cavalry corps en countered the French troops gathered for the de fence of Orleans yesterday, near Artenay, near Orleans. After a brisk light, lasting three hours, the French retreated on Tours, and the Prussian occupation of Orleans Is expected to-morrow. ltoMK, Sept. 21 Special to New York Tribune. The commander of the 4th army, General Cadorno, has Hddresscd to the army an order of tbe day, in which he expresses his high satisfaction at their conduct during the attack. I have been able to obtain from Cadorno a copy of the capitulation stipulated on September 20. It rHns thus: First. The city of Home, except the Leonine Citv, its complete armament, Hags, arms, ammunition and stores, and all objects belonging to the govern ment, shall be conveyed to the troops of the Iv ing of Italy. Second. All the garrison of the city shall depart, receiving the honors of war, with flags, guns and baggage. After the honors shall have been ren dered to them, they will lay down their rUgs and arms. The officers shall have a right to carry with them their swords, horses, and everything belong ing to them. The foreign troops shall leave first, and tbe others will follow in order of battle, with the left at the bead. The garrison will leave to-morrow morning at seven o'clock. a Third. The foreign troops shall be disbanded and immediately sent back to their respective couutrics. !riio government has the faculty of taking into consideration the rights of persons which have been stipulated with the Papal government. Fourth. The ltoman troops will be formed into a depot, without arms. The government will take into consideration their claims as to their future situation. fVl'lie troops will be forwarded to-morrow to Civlta Vecchia. A mixed commission will be appointed, formed of an otttcerof artillery; one of the engi neers, and a functionary of the administration. The commission will receive the consignment re fened to in tbe first article. XOTES OF TUE WAR. Three-fourths of the pictures hitherto exhibited in the Museum of the Louvre, at Faris, have been carefully packed up and sent off from Taria to an unknown destina tion. There now no longer remain any but pictures of the French school. In the town of Fotsdam the principal rrotestant clergyman aroused a f urious ex citement among the people by declaring that tne war was the judgment of God upon Ger many for her sins. A petition is in circula tion praying King William to enlist this modern Jeremiah, that he may get his proper Bhare of the judgment. Xhe Lrandenburg regiment, No. :s.j, has a vivandiere 72 years old, called the Widow Iiackert, who was in the war of lSl.t. An other elderly woman, named Scrader, who participated in the campaign of !; as a vivandiere, and was decorated for helping to carry the wounded out of the thickest of the fight to the Blood Hospital, has volunteered as hospital cook in the field. General von Donng, who fell in one of the battles before Metz, leaves in his will, dated tho r.th of July of the present jeer, sum of two thousand thaleis (ubout 1.100) to be distributed among the poor of Faris on the day when the Em peror .Napoleon should be dethroned, and 10 thalers to the poor of Berlin, which they fehall receive on the day the Frussians re-enter Berlin as victors. The war enthusiasm among German operatic singers is intense. Lucca, whose husband has been reported wounded and dead, passes her spare time in picking lint; Niemann, the celebrated tenor, has joined tbe Knigbts of fet. John; while Beck, at the head of a party of his musical confreres, boarded the refreshment trains going to the front and went in person to dispense good cheer among the soldiers. A society, whose members call themselves "Samaritans," has been organized in Berlin, whose specialty is to supply refreshments and aid to the wounded on the battle-held. Each member carries a valise weighing some twenty or tnirty pounas, in wmcn is stowed bottles of water, wine, cologne, cooling mix tures, lemons, sugar, etc. They are autho rized to receive for safe-keeping valuables, such as rings, money, and watches. The War Minister of Frussia publishes special lists of the Germans wounded during the present war, which lists, of course, are re- copied by most papers, btill, the curiosity of the people is naturally so great that most of them do not wait for these reissues. It is stated that there are at present over 50, WOO subscribers to the original list, and the num ber is daily increasing. Beside the lists thus sold, large numbers are sent away free by the authorities. The war feeling is so high in Berlin that recently a landlord came near being mobbed for demanding his rent, as usual, in advanoe, of a man who had just been detailed for duty in the reserve. He displayed upon the out side of his house a placard bearing the in- scrintions: "The man mav fitav !" and "No advance shall be demanded of my tenants!" Even after this the military were hardly able to protect the building from the excited crowd. A shipbuilder writes to the London Timet that the bulk of the English fleet is little better than the painted fortifications of the Chinese. He suggests that by the conversion of the largest of the weak iron-clads into low, freeboard turret ships, the Government would at a minimum expenditure attain to a niaxi mum of naval strength in the least possible time, and so avoid the danger of trusting the safety of the country to tne delusive protec tion of 4 1 -inch plated iron-clads. When the first company of' French pri soners was hourly expected in Berlin, the Chief of Folice, Ilerr von Wurmb, caused the following appeal to be placarded throughout the city: "Our farst prisoners of war will airive this evening; and to save them the mortification of a public entry, they will be brought to their final destination in a round about way, through the outskirts of the city. While we hope that it will not be in the power of the people of Faris to behold a similar spectacle, all true citizens of Beilin will take a pride in showing by a polite and dignified bearing on this occasion that they ' fciivw hJW to treat prisoners or war.
