THE WAR. LAST NIiaiT'S DBPATCI1K!4. ti3e battlk of oklens importance oi' the victory to the french the armistice faiia ee m. thiers' official bei-out. JOMUon, Nov. 14 Special, to New York Tri bune. J A dispatch to the Tribune from Blois the llth jnnt., cnys Orleans was taken by General Cathelintau's troop;-', which flrat entered the town from the south, ririvinir the Bavarians from the bridge they defended, and which they lacked time to explode, an the; Intended to do. At liecon a de termined tight occurred, with large losses on both sides. The Prussians were beaten and their en trenchments stormed. They lctt one hundred wa gons of provisions and forage. Martiueoain's wad the only French division there engaged. . Prisoners are constantly arriving. Two guns and a number of caisons have also arrived. General Taun's carriage is hero. Tann himself was nearly captured. The French were iu great force. Thirty thousand from Hourgese attacked on the south on the lett bank, while the fifteenth and sixteenth corps attacked on the west side. The Bavarians were everywhere outnumbered, and lost their strongly fortified positions. A correspondent of the Tribune at St. Petersburg on the UtU says an Imperial order was issued dis missing on unlimited furlough all soldiers who entered the army before the first of March, 18U7. Much uneasiness exists in diplomatic circles. A feeling prevails that the government is about to make a declaration renouncing the obligations of the trebly of Farts, and It Is understood that if such be the case the British ambassador will deuiaud his Ist ports. London, Nov. 14 Special to the New York World. A special telegram to the World from Tours dated to-dav has been received here as fol lows: The main body of the array of the Loire Jesterday occupied a position extending along the ine of Ohateaudiin road to St. Poravy, Patay and Cbevilly. The total lot of the Germans in the actions of the 7th, Oth and 10th before Orleans, in cluding SCO sick and wounded who were abandoned, aggregates 10,000 in killed and wounded and priso ners. -General Paliadines is now executing a move ment which is designed to outtUuk General Yon dor Tann'g right. It is observed here with surprise that King William omitted to mention "Provi dence" in bis dispatch announcing Yon der Tann's brilliant advance to Toury. The mission of Odo Russell, Undor Secretary of Foreign A flairs, to Versailles, is undertaken not by order of the Foreign Office, but in consequeuce of the late Cabint t council. The object of his mis sion is to ascertain the views of Bism trek iu rela tion to the threatening note Irom Russia repudiating the obligations of the treaty of 1830. Russell, It is understood, is iustructed to inform Bismarck that England, Austria and Italy will unite to resist vio lation of the treaty by Russia. General Burnsido is still in London. The terms which Bismarck authorised him to propose to tiie government in Paris are the same as those which Thiers submitted to Favre and Trochu. '1 he article on Germany, France and England, in the Kdinburgh Review, ascribed to Gladstone, was inspired but not wiitteu by him. Unauthenticated dispatches trom Blois and Tours contain contused accounts of another victory ob tained by Aurelles over General Yon der Tann, near Artenay. These dispatches state that Tann, being strengthened by reinforcements, had ad vanced from Toury southward along the road leading via Chevilly and Orleans; but ha was at tacked on the right flank with great impetuouslcy by Aurelles, near Artenay. The engagement re sulted in the complete repulse of the Germans and the capture of a large number of prisoners ami twenty-six guns. The agitation concerning Russian design is on the increase. In the best informed circles it is be lieved there Is imminent danger of a general Eu ropean conflict. The Pall Mall Gazette to-night declares that the Ministers not merely want true vision, but are occupied, to the exclusion of the truth, with misleading dreams. Two daugers con front England the Alabama difliculty and the Eastern question. The circumstance that lifted the latter to great and immediate importance made the former more formidable, because of the in creasing probability of there being a combination. Russia declares her designs to grasp Turkey, and Prussia is ready to connive and even to aid her. England, the only power to whom Turkey can look, is threatened with annihilation if she lifts her ringer. A special from Tours to-day says the movements of Aurelles, as mentioned in the dispatch this morning, are to Chartres on one flank ami Pithi vu rs on the other, with the view of surrounding Yon der Tann and Prince Albrecht before the arrival of detachments of the late army of Metz. Thatportion of Aurelles' army which defeated Yon der Tann on Wednesday is still facing him, but tlaiiking movements are executed by new troops, well supported by artillery. The juuetion of the right and left wings in the rear of the Bavarians will probably be completed to-day, although no positive news to that effect-is yet received. London, Nov. 14. The Times publishes Thiers' report on his armistice mission. lie says he deems be owes to the great Powers, who desired an armis tice should be concluded, a succinct account of the frave negotiations which he consented to under ake. He mentions the desolation of the coun try through which he passed, going from Orleans to Versailles, at which latter place he stopped but one moment. He proceeded forthwith to Paris, stopping at the Ministry of Foreign A Hairs to confer with the government; passed the night in deliberation, and next morning, the first of November, went to meet Bismarck, who was perfectly aware of the nature of his mission, as be bad received at the same time that France had, the notice from the Powers that an armistice as desired to avoid the effusion of blood, and to allow France, through elections, to form a regular government with which to treat etlectually. This was all the more evident from the tact that Prussia had pretended that, owing to the situation of France, she kuew not to whom to apply. jiisrnarck made casual weutiou that the remain of the fovernmont were now at Oawel, and it was tie only one rcwc'dred by Europu; that he, how evr, merely made the remark to establish a diplo matic situation, having no intention to meddle with tbe Intrrtial management of France. Thiers Immediately answered that the govern ment which precipitated Franco into the abyss of a war so foolishly resolved upon, had forever termi nated its existence with Its fatal career at Sedan, and wonld be for France but a remembrance of s tin me and grief. Bicmiirek did not contest tho fact, and ravl) wllh me fn examination of the following ijuestum of the armistice proposed: To furnish France time for tho expression of b;r will as to the government she should choose t bnve, to allow entire freedom of elections during the armistice, and also for the organization of atmlis. Lastly, to permit the revictualling of bo slrgcd plares, and especially Paris. Uismtrck po-med to have no insurmountable objection t allow any of these questions, and, alter an Inter view which lasted four hours, I had tho right ti suppose we should agree on all points, and thus conclude the first part of a pacification ao ardontly drsired in both hemispheres. Our conferences were three per day, as I was I in patient to achieve a result which would causa as much noise as tho cannon we distinctly heard. Count Yon Bismarck assured tne, as to the princi ple of the armistice, that he desired, as much as snv of the neutrsls, to end hostilities, and that he desired to see established in France a puwer which might contract lasting engagements. We were thus In accord on the essential points. I dcm-tndod from twenty-five, to thirty days armistice, as this time was needed for the votes and reunion of the elcctrd candidates. Bismarck did not contest this, and seemed to accept twetity-tive days. As to the elections, Bismarck assured me they should be free In the departments occupied by tho'Prussians. He made, however, reservations concerning that portion of the tenitory of the French near tlu German frontier, and German in origin. I imme diately answered that the armistice must not ba de'sytd by the argument of questions which come wlihin the province of a treaty of peace. Bis marck said it was better rot to discuss these ques tions, and that he, If not admitting electoral agita tion in said provinces, would not refuse that they be represented in the future national assembly by a notable free In opinion as oilier representatives. Alter a pause we then arranged as to the con I net of t lie armies. Bismarck rolerred this to tho generals and to the King; and this was the con clusion arrived at, namely: The belligerents were to stop v hero they were on the day of the signing of the armistice. Lastly came the question of revictualling, and litre again Bismarck wished to consult tho military ct niiiiaiideTs. So matters were deferred to the lit xt day. When on the 3d I saw Bismarck lie seemed nncasy and pre-occupied, and asked if I bad any news from Paris. I said "no." He then said, "Paris is in revolution, and a new government is proclaimed " I replied, "If disorder for the moment has trl nmj bed, the people's love of order and patriotism will soon restore order." I was forced, howevor, to suspend negotiations, but soon received proof that I was not mistaken. X saw Bismarck that night, and resumed negotiations. On the subject of revictualling Paris, I explained the principle that at the end of the armistice each belligerent must be in the same condition as at the commencement. Bismarck, speaking in the name of the military leaders, pronounced against the revictualling unless he received a military equivalent. 1 demanded what be meant. He answered, "A fort; perhaps more than one." I Immediately stopped Bismarck, saying, "Is it Paris yau ask Paris, our force, our hope, which you are not able to vanquish after fifty davs' siege ?" Arrived here, we could get no farther. I saw the military spirit all powerful in the Prussian resolu tion against a peace policy, and asked Bismarck for leave to see Favre and adviso with him. Bis marck charged me to declare that he would not in terfere with the elections, even if there was no armistice, and would let Paris communicate with Tours on the subject. The government was in formed of what had occurred, and they desired me to break off the negotiations on refusal of the re victualling and leave Versailles, which resolution I imparted to Bismarck. I he rowers must judge of the conduct of the belligerents and the efforts made to secure peace, which was not lost throu (h tho nation, but through the fault of the late government, the existence of which was the fault of France, in abandoning its destinies to such hands. Thikhs. A STEAMER ON FIRE. A Vessel Lena; Island tonnd In Flamea. The mail agent of the Boston express train, which arrived in this city on the New York and New Haven Railroad at twenty minutes past eleven o'clock last night, reports that he saw a large Eteamer wrapped In (lames about half-past nine o'clock la6t night. The agent states that while running between WeBtport, Conn., and Green Farms his attention was attracted by hearing one of the employes of the road ex claim, "Look! there's a steamer on fire !" lie turned, and, looking in the direction indicated, taw, with Eome dllliculty, owing to the distance, what he confidently believes to have been one of the large Sound steamers blazing; from stem to stem. The large framed upper works could be seen somewhat resembling the shell of a house en fire just before the bnildini; falls and when arl its timbers are aglow. The temi-circular outline of the large paddlebox was also diecernable, but owiag to the glare could not be plainly seen. From the gen eral ei.e and 6hape of the burning mast all who witnessed it concluded that It was no ordinary sized steamer, and there is no larger structure in the vicinity tban the lighthouse about Nor walk harbor. The train was about three miles from the burning vessel, and it was the decided impression that she was aground not far from the lighthouse, on the north shore. The vessel had, when reported as above, been burning for some hours, as the conductor of the evening train goiDg north reports that he saw the vessel ablaze about opposite Green Farms, and when last seen by tbe mail agent large spires of flame were 6hooting up from the body of tbe steamer. If it should prove that it was actually one of the Sound steamers, it is not improbable that it was the New Haven boat, which left this city about half-past three o'clock yesterday after noon. The fact that the was ashore gives reason to hope that she had been run aground by her pilot whenitwas discovered that she was on fire, and that nil or most of tbe persons on board may thereby have been rescued. JY. Y. lltrald, ytskrdaj. DETERMINED TO DIE. A l.ailv Ileart-brskea at the Death el Her JIubIiuimI riakea three Ueaiterate Attempts at (Suicide. Quite an excitement, says the Louisville Jour nal of the 10th instant, has been created in the West end, by the desperate and determined efforts of a highly rtspectable lady to take her own lite. Some five or six weeks ago the husband of the lady, who was a well-known citizen of Louisville, died suddenly while on his way to a distant city. The sad news fell with terrible force npon the fond heart of the loving wife. Frenzied with grief, and feeling that life had no further charms for her, the grief-stricken widow procured a quantity of opium, retired to her room, and swallowed the deadly potion. For tunately, her condition was discovered ere the drug had done Its fatal work, and her life was saved. She expressed regret for the rash act, and promised to make no further attempts npon her life. Bhe was closely watched for several days, but as she evinced no disposition to repeat the attempt the surveillance ceased. Hut she had not abandoned her purpose, and about three weeks since a relative, upon entering her room, found her lying upon the bed in a deep stupor. A vial, labelled opium, showed plainly that the had again attempted to gain surcease of sorrow In death. As before, she was foiled in her rash purpose through the Intervention of medical aid. A stricter watch than before was kept upon her actions; but it seems that she was deter mined to die by her own haud. tier apparent resigaation was but a rose to lull to sleep the vigilance of her friends. At an early hour yes terday morning a female relative was awakened by the stertorous breathing of the lady. The relative procured a light, and discovered that the grief-6tricken woman had inhaled a large quantity of chloroform and was rapidly sinking. Physician were Immediately summoned, and only by the most strenuous efforts known to medical skill was she restored to consciousness. 6be was pronounced out of danger yesterday by the physicians, but it Is feared that at the ear liest opportunity she will again attempt to take Ltr Ule. ul Alt INE TELEGBAPH.
