LONDON, February 28.- Mediation baa |
boon offered nod accepted in the Span?
ish-Egyptian trouble. A peaceful sola- i
tioo ia probable.
The excitement regarding Prussian oc?
cupation is somewhat exaggerated. Sul?
len sorrow is geuoral, with licrco anger
and.threats in some quarters.
PAMS, February 28 -It is stated that ?
Ibo oocnpatiou ol the departments South
pf the Suiuo ceases after the ratification
of the treaty, and that of the other de?
partments after payment of 50,000,000
of the indemnity. The fortresses uro to
be occupied until tho eutiro iudemuity is
paid.
BORDEAUX, February 28.-President
Thiers read to the Assembly, to-day, the
conditions of peace. France cedes one
fifth of Lorraine, including Metz und
Ihionvillo, and all of Alsace, except Bel
fort, and pays an indemnity of live mil?
liards francs-one milliard this year and
the balance in three years. Tho German
troops will gradually withdraw from
French territory, as the payments are
made. The armistice is prolonged to the
12th of March.
BERLIN, February 28.-Tho Prussian
Gross Gazette -states that orders have been
given tho municipal authorities of Ber?
lin tu prepare quarters for Saxon, Baden,
Bavarian and Wurtemburg troops, who
will pass through Berlin with other re?
turning troops. Orders say it is the
wish of tho Emperor that all paris of
Germany should be represented on thu
occasion of Ilia entry into tho capital.
BORDEAUX, February 28.-After read?
ing the conditions of peace, Thiers said,
for himself and colleagues, that they had
gone to the limit of their responsibility.
The Assembly must bu accountable for
tho rest. No member could abstain from
voting in the present circumstances.
Tho Assembly meets in committee this
evening, and holds a public session to?
morrow. Tho building is strongly
guarded. The city is tranquil.
PAMS, February 28-Evening.-The
city is tranquil. The districts which the
Germnnu intend to occupy aro deserted.
Barricades have been erected in Mo?t
martres, Belleville and Lochapelle, and
there aro disturbing symptoms generally.
All needy precautions are being taken by
the authorities.
MADRID, February 28.-The Govern
tnient is sure of a majority iu the Cortes.
LONDON, March 1.-President Thiers
luis issued a proclamation to tho people
of Paris, in which he appeals to their
patriotism and wisdom, for tho preserva?
tion of order. Famine, says Thiers,
compelled the surrender of the forts aud
obliged the Government to opeu negoti
atious. They were ouly able to obtaiu
an extension of the armistice by consent?
ing to tho partial occupation of Paris.
The French army will occupy tho left
bank of the Seine, to secure tho execu?
tion of tho convention. Thiers urges
thc people not to break Ino couveutiou
and thus entail frightful misfortunes
upon France. An order of the duy, is?
sued by Viuoy, says tho Government un?
hesitatingly confides to thu National
Guard tho caro of the city, and trusts in
their devotion and intelligence for the
maintenance of order. The least agita?
tion will furnish a pretext for irreparable
misfortune, which only calmuess and
dignity can avert. Tho proclumatiou of
Thiers and the order of Viuoy produced
a good impression ia Paris, but military
precautions have been tuken to prevent
disorders. The eleventh Prussian corps
and tho Bavarians will outer Paris to?
day. Belgium will recognize the French
Republic.
Special despatches from Paris to the
Loudon papers say the city is in a very
disturbed state and serious occurrences
aro apprehended.
A special to tho Times says delegates
from the National Guard held a meeting,
and resolved to resist the entrance of the
Germans. At a meeting of 1,500 Na?
tional Guards, it wus determined to ut- !
tack the Hotel de Ville on Tuesday morn?
ing, but the attack fuiled fron, want of
organization. Tho troops retreated to
tho Place Buutilo. Sympathy with re?
sistance is extending. Vonoy will not
interfere, but will withdraw his army.
BORDEAUX, March 1.-The first com?
mittee of consultation which accompa?
nied Thiers to Versailles unanimously
recommend to tho Assembly the ratifica?
tion of tho treaty. .
No news of tho Prussian entrance.

RALEIGH, N. O., Marah 1.-A bill in
equity lias been tiled, by certain holders
of certain North Carolina old bonds to
restrain tho payment of thu dividend of
six por cent., lately declared by thu North
Carolina Riilroad Company-180,000 of
which is npen stock hold by the Stale,
for which she is sued for her bonds in
payment, and to have this sum and all
futuro dividends applied in pity in? ut of
tho interest due upon tho above CIUSH ot
bonds. This application of the divi?
dends is claimed under the forty-first
section o? un Act incorporating the com?
pany, and ordering tho issue of these,
bonds, which, after pledging tho public
faith of the State to tho payment of
these bouds, in uddition thereto, pledged
the stock held by her in this railroad,
and all dividends of profit from time to
time declared, should be appin d to the
payment of tho interest accruing on
these bonds. Judge Bond, of theUuited i
States Circuit Court, granted a restrain?
ing order, and will hear tho motion for |
injunction on the 28th Mardi. There is j
much consternation hero among the
members of the Legislature, in cotise
?? 3nce of tho injunction, as this is thc
only fund from winch they could get
thoir per diem.

The following estimate of woman's

rous; a German woman if ho is constant
aud faithful; a Dutch woman if he does
not disturb her ease aud comfort too
much; a Spanish womun if he wreaks
vengeance on those who incur his dis?
pleasure; an Italian woman if ho is
dreamy and poetical; a Danish womun
if ho thinks that her native country is
the happiest and brightest on earth; u
Russiuu woman if ho despises nil West?

Presa in reference to compreoscd airea

Perhaps leas than two per cont, of tho
water power of our vast conn try has y ot
been utilized. Tho force now rnuuing
to waste is dostincd tc add untold wealth
and play no mean part in tho nation'?
destiny. The timo has iadeed come for
a fuller investigation of this most impor?
tant tui bj ce t. Thanks to Ho ai meliere
aud his associates; thanks to France and
Italy, whose money was nt his disposal;
we can to-day, and with great prout to
nil who will engage iu tho business,
"bottle up" and trausmitto places where
wauted, und uso this waslo force tbrough

To-day n company for this purpose ia

Y. It has purchased the Lower Geneneo
Falls, oue mile from the railroad depot,
and can utilizo 5U0 horse powor. TII?B

streets, similar to the ordinary gas pipes;
these will always hnve a regulated pres?
sure of condensed air, aflbrdiug power

power per annum for its use.
Every other building-every dwelling
-may have n small pipe conuecting with

cost. Tho cooking can bc done iu tho
kitchen; gas light scut throughout the

than to opcu and close a small stop-cock.

Ry tho discovery iu both Europe and
America of machinery to bo run hy
steam or compressed air, thc drilling nf
rock, its raising and removal, tnnuels,

tho future be done by machinery. Th?
Burleigh Rock Drill Company, ot' Fitch?

Tho nation's necessities, the demands
of increasing com muree, thu completion
of the Northern Pacific Railroad, tho
steady increase of population penetrat?
ing tho productive North-west, will soon
combiue to override all local oppositions,
and make indispensable tho construction
of the Niagara Whip Canal uud tho other
connecting links through Lake Cham?
plain and down the Hudson River to the
ocean. When this time comes, the
power of Niagara Fulls, by the uid of
compressed air, will operate machinery
to bore the rock aud raise it from its bed,
and tho whole work will only afford
amusement for IOU moa for less than
twenty mouths, and, when completed,
the machinery used can bo turned to ac?
count in running mills upon its banks
and the lakes, uuited ut a cost so much
below tho estimate of engineers hy old

struction a certainty.
