Forol?a Afftotrat x. VatUAXXIiBS, January 18.-The Pr08 niau fire was slacked. The Pron ob reply continues weak. The Prussians captured 6,000 of Ohauzy's army, from the (Uh to the 12th, with twelve om non and mitrail lense. BORDEAUX, January 14.-A despatch from Laval, 13th, saysOhanzy is retreat? ing to a new position in excellent order. Paris advices to the 14th say tho bom? bardment continues. The population are undaunted. Bourbaki reports from Onams that the French oarried the village of Arcy, and his troops ore gaining ground. Dijon, Gray, Lure rind Vesoul were ocoupied by the Frenoh. HAVRE, January 14.-The Prussians at Dieppe hare exacted 50,000 francs. The Frenoh defending Havre retired from Bournville in good order, after an encounter with the enemy. LONDON, January 15.-The French Foreign Office protests against bombard? ment, without the notification required by civilized Dations. LONDON, January 1G.-The Pall Mall Gazette has Paris despatches to Saturday, which say the bombardment continues. The Frenoh accuse the Prussians of using petroleum shells. Troohu, in an order of the day, reuews his laudations of the troops, for their bravery and steadiness. BORDEAUX, January 16.-The Germans attacked Chansey yesterday. The army resisted well, except in the centre. Bour? baki continues the attack on Bellefort. He waa fighting yesterday, and occupied Mount Befaird. The battle was resumed to-day. LONDON, January 16.-A despatch from Lille says the army of Faidherbe is daily reeoiving reinforcements aud advancing. It encamped during Sunday at Albert, supported on the right by the divisions of Panizo and Devoy, and on the left by Favre. The division of Bobin remains at Bapaume. The Prussians menace the bombardment of Longuey, and tho women and children aro flying into Belgium and Luxemburg. There was quite a heavy fight Saturday, near LoDguey, ia which both infantry and artillery were engaged. Tho command of the Gormau army of the Vosges is assigned to Manteuffel. This army will comprise part of Werder's force, which will be greatly augmented. Cardwell will probably defend war measures on the first night o? tho coming session of Parliament. Gen. Mansfield, whom the Government consults respect? ing tho organization of tho army, in a speech ou Saturday, at the distribution of volunteer prizes, declared the necessi? ty of universal disability from military service in England without paid substi? tutes. ? The Times' oity article to-day is severe on the propositions made by Florida to compromise her State debt. The weather is tempestuous and much damage is occasioned to shipping. Tho gale was terrific off Land's End Sunday night. i The protest of the Paris Government ' to foreign powers against tho bombard? ment of the French capital is, iu effect, os follows: Bombardment is proceeding wantonly upon hospitals, ambulances I and churches, and is killing many inno? cent women and children. All authori? ties on war aud military usage requiro that warning to remove non-combatants shall precede the opening of such attuck upon a city. The bombardment, con? tinues the protest, is not preliminary to military aotion, but is an act coldly cal? culated to devastate the city and strike terror to the citizens by murder and incendiarism. The Government protests loudly in the face of the civilized world at this useless barbarism, and concludes its manifest with the statement that the inhabitants of Paris are undismayed. LONDON, January 16-5 P. M.-A de? spatch from Bordeaux says the enemy were driven from Gien. Chansey an? nounces the appearance of the enemy before his position. On Sunday, a fight occurred with the vanguard. Chansey issued an order to the army, explaining the recent disaster, and calling for tho display of all their soldierly qualities in an effort for its reparation. He attri? butes the abandonment of Lo Mans by the army to an inexplicable panic among somo of tho troops and the loss of im? portant positions, which compromised the safety of tho entire army. A su? premo effort, ou tho part of tho army, may yet save the country. BR?SSELS, January 1G.-The Prussians have destroyed the bridge over the Ciders, between Longuey and Arion. Material for tho bombardment of Lon? guey is rapidly concentrating in tho in? terior. BORDEAUX, Jauuary 16.-Tho Prus? sians were dislodged from Gien, aud aro retreating on Moutargis nud Orleans. Gen. Chancy reports minor engage? ments with the advance guard of the enemy, yesterday, and that ho expected a general attack to-day. BERLIN, January 16.-Count Bismarck, in a note just issued to North German representatives abroad, defends the Ger? man modo of warfare and appeals .for witnesses to English and American*re? porters with tho German armios. Ho cites two cases as evidence of French barbarism, two cases in which the French fired upon parlementaires, and also thirty-ono violations of tho Geneva convention. Ho also says tho French uso explosive missiles, burn ships, mal? treat prisoners, and encourage violation of their parole by French officers. lu conclusion, Bismarck says the French rulers do not wish for peuce, but gag tho press to prevent a convocation of tho National Assembly aud force tho peoplo to continue tho war. VERSAILLES, January 1G.-Geu. Auder was seriously attacked yesterday by four French corps in his position South of Belfort. Tho battle lasted nine hours, and the attack was victoriously repulsed at all poiuts. German loss 200. The French to day unmasked some batteries I on tho Sooth ?ide of Pari?. Their Aro waa immediately oncountorod by Ger? man batteries, trn? quickly silenced. German loss, two offloera and seventeen men. LONDON, January 16.-A speoial to the Telegram says indirect intelligence from Paris to the morning of the 13th, states that the shelling continned with murderous consequences. The people do not nrge capitulation, and cling to a ohanoo' of relief from the forts on the Eastern side. All the forts on that side of the city, including Nogont and Rothney, ore, it is certain, telling with terrible effect on the Prussians. That part of the city is said to be crowded with people. Temporary shelter is found for thousands, of inhabitants in the Bois De Vincennes. Tho works of art of Luxemburg are safely put away. The building only is nearly destroyed. LONDON, January 17-12.30 P. M. King William telegraphs to Queen Au? gusto, under date of Versailles, the 16tb, that the number of prisoners captured in and since the battles of Lemana has increased to fully 20,000.

HAVANA, January 15.-A largo num? ber of prominent Cubans publish a long article in tho Voz de Cuba, proclaiming unalterable) adhesion to Spain and tho Spanish cause.

Krzyzanowski; and has mado no allusion to any one about out? rages in Savannah. The election Col. Robb reports os almost monotonously quiet and peaceful. The Judiciary Committee of tho Se uato had a meeting ou tho Georgia Sena? torial question, but tho result has not transpired. The House passed a bill providing that cargoes in port on tho 31st December shall pay duties under the old tariff law. The Dominican expedition has em? barked. Tho Reconstruction Committee, this morning, appoiuted a sub-committee, consisting of Porter, chairman, Upson and Morgan, to report, at tho next meet? ing of tho committee, what should be done iu regard to tho removal of politi? cal disabilities, and what legislation is necessary to protect tho loyal people of tho South. The Secretary of War has transmitted to Congress a largo number of papers rolative to Senator Spragne's trade with Texas during tho war. Wilson is re? nominated for tho Senate by tho Massa? chusetts Republicans, which is equiva? lent to an election. Hastings refuses to testify in the Brooks investigation, claiming that the matter is purely politi? cal, over which tho House has uo juris? diction.

Hac?an *?x Creseed opposition to the passage of the ill, bocuusG he regarded it as calculated to -work injuriously to the interests of the poor people in those States, many of whom are colored. Kellogg said the only purpose of the bill was to placo the publio lands in the States named on the same footing as the public lands in the other States of the Union. Harlan said to repeal the present provisions would bo to forever debar tho poor from ob-1 taining a free hold, and these lands would bo taken up by the wealthy peo? ple of those States. Kellogg expressed bis willingness that Harlan should offer an amendment to obviate tho contingen? cy which be favored, and for that pu:* pose the bill was informally laid over to be resumed to-morrow.
