TUE SURRENDER OP METZ.-Tbis event of courso hns produced a profouud sou nation as well iu Franoo as in Germany. The following is tho proclamation of the Frenoh Government, which breathes a lofty spirit which rises with disaster: FRENCH REPUBLIC-LIBERTY, EQUALITY, FRATERNITY - PROCLAMATION TO THE FRENCH PEOPLE. FRENCHMEN: Ruine your spirits and resolution to tho fearful height of perils which havo broken upon our country. Tt still depends on US to mount nbnve. misfortune and show the world how great o people may be who aro resolved not to perish, and where courage increases in tho midst of calamity. Motz has capitulated. A General upon whom Franco counted, even after Mexico, has just taken away (vient d'en? lever) from the country in its danger moro than 100,000 of its defenders. Marshal Bazaine has betrayed UB! He has made himself tho agent of tho man of Sedan and the accomplice of tho in? vaders, and regardless of tho honor ol the army of which ho had charge, ho has surrendered, without even making a lnsi effort, 120,000 fighting men, 20.00C wounded, guns, cannon, colors, and thc strongest citadel of Franco, Metz, virgir. but for bim, to tho contamination of thc foreigners. Such a erinn; is above even tho punish ment of justice. Meanwhile, French men, measure tho depths of the nbysi into which tho Empire has prccipitatci you. For twenty years France submit ted to this corrupting power, which ex tinguished in her the springs of greatnes and of life. The army of Franco, strippet of its nationul character, became, with out knowing it, an instrument of tyrann; and of servitude, and is swallowed up ii spite of the heroism of tho soldiers b; tho treason of their chiefs. lu tho dis asters to tho country, in less than tw< months 250,000 have been delivered ove to the enemy, a sinister sequel to th military coup de main of December. It is time for us to re-assert ourselves citizens, and under tho icgis of the Rc public, which wo have determined no to allow to capitulate within or withoul to seek in tho extremity even of on political and social morulity and mar hood. However tried by disaster, let u bo found neither panic-stricken nor hes tating. Let it bo seen that we are read for tho last sacrifices, and in tho face ( enemies, whom overything favors, let r sweur never to give up so long as thei remuins au inch of sacred soil under tl soles of our feet. Let us hold firmly tl glorious banner of tho French revoh tion. Our cause is that of justico aud < right. Europo sees it; Europe feels i lu the presence of macy unmerited mi fortunes, spontaneously receiving froi us neither invition or encouragemen she is moved, and Bhe begins to act. ft illusion is now left. Let us no longi languish or grow weak, and let us pro' by our acta that we can, ourselves, mai tain honor, independcuce, iutegrity-i that makes a country proud and fre Long live the Republic, one and inc visible. Signed by Cremieux, Gk Biziou and Gambetta. The proclamation, placarded about t streets, attracted crowds of readers, ai creates great excitement. Groups people are discussing it. The trcache of Bazaine is denounced, and bitter i precations are uttered against thc Dot partists. Oommeuting thereupon the New Yo World says: "THE REPUBLIC AND BAZAINE.-Wh ever may be thought by the rest of t world of the surrender of Marshal I zaino at Metz, the French Governmi at Tours nt least have made up th minds ou the subject. lu a stirring p cludjation to tho French people, they i m unee the net as an act of treason to I Stat?', and Marshal Bazaine himself as accomplice of tho "Mun of Sedau." '.lt is impossible to deny that th aro many things in tho accounts wh have already reached us of this amuz incident of tho war to warrant tho lief that theso terrible charges muy only too well founded in truth. Th is nothing, unfortunately, in tho \ career of Murshnl Bazaine, and especii in his Mexican experience, (to which Government ut Tours bitterly allude, rentier even such accusations as Gambetta and his colleagues level nt 1 autecedeutly improbuble. All thc I correspondents from tho sceno ogre* the statement that tho Germans ? "amazed" at tho actual capitulati The fearful story which carno to us v a strong caveat, yesterday, from our < respondent at Ostend, of a massncrt uuurmed peoplo ot tho gates of M st ems to havebueu, as our correspond led us to hope it might provo to part of what looks now like a system ni tempt of tho Imperialists in Belg and England to represent the positio tho army at Metz as more holplebs t it really was. "But without entering fully to-day th? question of Marshal Bozaino's g or innocence, wo may unreservedly c mend to tho admiration of our rea* tho fearless, resolute, and mnscn tone of tho proclamation in which Government at Tours announce great catastrophe to tho people of republic. It extenuates nothing of extent of the disaster, conceals uoth and concedes nothing. How far tho high' ?ud unconquered tono o? tho Go? vernment is j untitled by th? state of the military organization; with which Re? publican Franco is preparing to meet her victorious foe?, wo shall know in a few weeks at furthest. Meanwhile no freeman in nny country oan refuse his most cordial sympathies to the spirit with which theso lenders of a people striving to he free, and to cntabliah free? dom, riso to the shock of calamities really almost unparalleled in the history of mnnkind." BISMARCK ON THE SITUATION AT PARIS. The following memorial in regard to the fatal consequences to which the popula? tion of Paris aro exposed by a prolonged resistance, has been sent by Count Bis? marck to the Ambassadors of North Gormauy : Tho conditions of armistice offered to M. Jules Favre, intended as the basis for tho re-establishment of order in France, huvo heen rejected by him and his col? leagues. They thereby decreed the con ! tumut ion of a struggle which, accord I iog to tho course of events, appears I without any chance of success for the French people. I Sinco thou, the prospects of France in j this war, so full of sacrifices, have still j further declined. Toni and Strasburg havo fallen. Paris is olosely surrounded, and German troops are advancing along tho Loire. Tho largo forces before en? gaged near the above fortresses aro now at tho free disposal of the German com? manders. Tho country has to bear the conse quonces of a war a'oulrance decreed by ? tho French authorities in Paris. Its sacrifices will bo unnecessarily increased, ! and its social condition suffer more and j moro dangerous decomposition. I Tho command of the German armies ! docs not find itself in a situation to counteract this; but perceives clearly the consequence of the resistance chosen by ? the powers in France, and feels compelled to call general attention to one point, viz: tho Bpecial condition of Paris. I The heaviest attacks heretofore made from this capital, (on the 19th and 30th i of last month,) in which the elite of the armies collected in that city, have not been ablo to throw back the first line of j tho besieging force, lead to the convic | tion that tho capital will fall sooner or later. If the timo of surrender is postponed by tho provisional government for the national defence until the threatening want of provisions necessitates a capitu? lation, tho most terrible results must follow. Tho unwise destruction of railways, bridges and canals, within a certain dis? tance around Paris, by the Frenoh, has not been ablo to stop for one moment thu advance of the German armies; all communications by land or water, need? ed for military operations, have been re? established in a very short time. These repairs, naturally, regard military inte? rests exclusively, while the other de? structions, evon after a capitulation, will prevent for a long time the communica tion of tho capital with the provinces. It will bo an absolute impossibility foi tho German commanders, when thal caso occurs, to provide one single day'? rations for a population of nearly 2,000, OOO. The environs of Paris, to the dis tance of several days' journey, since al stores there are necessarily required foi the uso of the German troops, will thei offer no resources, and will not penni the inhabitants of Paris to evacuate bj the roads into tho country. The inevit ablo result would be tho starvation o hundreds of thousands. Tho persons in power in France can not fail to discern these consequences a clearly as the German commanders, am since to the latter nothing is left but b carry on the war proffered, the rulers o France are responsible for forcing sud extremes. THIS PROSPECT IN FRANCE. -The Balti moro Sun says: It is almost incredible yet none the less true, that two illustr ons Marshals of Franoe, at the head c armies numbering together 250,000 vet? rans, have been entrapped and absorbe entire, within less than two mouths ( each other, by a strategist of three-6COi and ten, a venerable military ?pide who, keepiug ont of sight himself, wbi the Prussian King, the Crown Prine and other royal figuro heads have bee flaming in front, has silently woven h web and entangled well-nigh all Frani in its meshes. The movements of tl armies of Prussia, organized under i despotic military system, and direct* by the profound and peculiar genius < Von Molt ko, seem more like the oper tiou of machines, impelled by mechar cd forces, than of intelligent beiuj under tho guidance of an ordinary mc tal. If thero has been any failure any department of tho military ente prise of Prussia iu this war, it has n yet come to Jicht.
