Versailles telegraphs on the 80th alt.:-— THE CANNONADE OF MONDAY. A sortio Was attempted against Cholsy-le-Ro!, and the feigned attacks upon Monttretout and Bezons ‘would have been pushed home had the Prussian Jines proved weak. The French began the move- ment ugainst Berons in the middle of the night of tho 28th by @ heavy cannonade from Mont Valerien and an attempt, real or feigned, to throw bridges across the Seine. A musketry fre was ex- change‘ between the belligerents on the opposite sides of the river, and the whole Prusstan force on the Peninsula of Carriers St. Denis was on tho alert. AN ATTACK ON MONTRETOUT. Meantime the French were preparing an attack on Montretouf with infantry moving up from Syrines, under cover of the guns of the now carthivork at Mont Valerien. Tins altack commenced at eicht o'clock yesterday morning. The Prussians were vigorously shelled, and detachments of Gardes Mobile began skirmishing. ADVANCE OF THE PRUSSIANS. Severa: Prussian field batteries and a large force of Ine infantry soon advanced to support the jagar companies, and the Fifth corps en- gaged with the French gunboats on the Seine, which took part in tho action and shelled the jagers. )The Prussian batteries did not reply to the Freuch cannonade| because they were unlimbered solely against the French infantry, which did not advance. FRIGNED ASSAULTS, ‘There were two or three crude attacks on Mon- tretout, as if to storm the Prussian works, but the French supports were so manceuyred as to give the 1dea that no orders had reached them to advance, although they were in strong ferce and the French officers were continually exposing themselves to hold the troops steady and suffered much from the Juagers’ fire, About noon the fire trom Fort Valé- rien slackened and the Mobiles were withdrawn. TUR ADVANCE ON OHOISY-L#-ROL The sortie against Cholsy-le-Rei began a little later than the feint against Montretout, About twenty battalions came out at nine oclogk from Villejtif and advanced on the position of the Sixth Prussian corps, The guns of the new works at Villejuif sup- ported the attack by an incessant fire, reaching mainly the right of the Second Bavarian corps and inflicting slight losses, REPULSE OF THE FRENCH. The beginning of the French movement was conducted with great energy, but the French speedily became discouraged under the sharp fire of the besieging forces, who unmasked their field baiteries, which immediately proved exceedingly annoying to the Freuch. Notwithstanding the great exertions of their officers the attacking battalions were thrown Anto disorder. Their supports failed to arrive, The affair was over in two hours. THE LOSSES. The estimated German loss is 100, of whom thirty were Bavarians and the rest Prussians of the Sixth corps, The French loss Is from 600 to 600, 1weiuding 250 prisoners, © ' CONCENTRATION OF GERMANS. Riding towards Choisy-le-RolI found the country live with the German furces mustering to repel the sortie, Thirty thousand are capable of concentrat- ing at any peint, Tno weather fs raw and misty, The Germans are in excellent spirits at the prospect of active work, The troops are singing and the bands playing. SHELLING THE WORTEMBERGERS, The Wurtembergers on the extreme left were heavily cannonaded last night. There was about one casualty for every 600 shells, There was much artillery firing during the night from the whole line f southern forts, The French everywhere are dls- playing great activity.

A profound feeling pervades all classes of the British people with respect to the wavering, timed policy of the English Cabinet. ‘The publication of the Gortchakod letter confirms toaceriainty the fact of the existence of a break in the Cabinet, the parties being divided for peace or war, with a direct action in the premises, With respect to the answer to be given on behalt of the Queen, Earl Granville insists on the with- drawal of Itnssta’s pretenslous or war, Mr. Lowe and his friends denounce war and condemn Gran- ville’s first letter. They are quite willing to “back down" upd accept the conference as proposed vy Prussia, simply to comfirm the action of Prussia in this direction, Should the views of Earl Granville prevail finally Messrs. Lowe, Bright and Cardweil will retire from the Gladstone Cabinet. If the ‘Quaker,” or peace, party inthe Ministry carry thelr point Lord Gran- ville, with hia triends, will resign.

LONDON, Dec. 2, 187), A correspondent in St. Petersiurg telegraphs for the HewaLp the full text of Prince Gorichakoi's note in reply to Barl Granville, which was de spatched to Baron Brunnow, Kussan Minister im London, The note reads thus:— THORSKOX, Nov. 20, 1870, ARON—The Aimbassador of Engiand with me a copy of Lord Granville’s — to our communication of the 19th of October, which I submitted to his Majesty the Bmperor, Our augnst master was pleased to point out that it contained, in the first place, an expression of the earnest desire of the Onbinet of London to preserve the cordial relations between Kng- land and Russia; and, secondly, an assurance that the Knglish Cabinet would net have retused to enter into an examination of the resnits of the treaty of 1566, #0 far as they have been mudified by cir- cumstances, As for ihe question of strict right stated by Lord Granville We have no wish to euler into any disons- sion, W recull auy precedent or cite any example. Such # controversy would in no way promote the good understanding which we desire. Onr august Inasier had to disenarge an imperious dniy to nis own country, without wishing to injure in any way the governments which were siguatories of the Treaty ot 1556. On the contrary, tis Imperial Majesty ap- peais to their sense Of justice and ty their regard for their own dignity. We regret to see that Earl Granvitie addresses: himseif principally to the form of our commmunica- tion. The form was not our choice. We could nave asked nothing better, surely, than 0 witan our cud by an agreement with the signatories of the Treaty of 150; but the prinetpal etaiies of State of Her Briianaic Majesty weil know that tae attempts made at different times to assemble the Powers in a gene- ral con erence, with a View to remove the causes of diMeulty which disturb the geueral peace, have in- variably tailed. ‘The prolongation of the present crists and the ab- sence of aregular governiaent in France postpone sull Curther the po-stbility of such an agreement, Meanwhile, the position in which the Treaty left Russia has become more and more 1atolerabie. Karl Granville Will agree that the Hurepe of to-day is far from being the Europe which signed the aty of 1856, Jt was tmapossible thal Russia should agree to remain the oaly Power bound in- detinitely to an arrangement wich, onerous as it was at the tae When it was conciuded, became daily weaker in tts guarantees. Gur angust master has loo deep a sense of what he owes to his country to force 1 to submit any longer to an obligation agaist which the naitonal sentiment protests. We cannot aduit that the abrogauion of a purely theo- retical princip'o, not followed by its iminediate application, and which visibly restores to Kus- sla a right of which no great Power could consent to be deprived, ought to ve considered as @ menace to peace, nor that, in avoiding one point of the Treaty of 1856, the abrogation of all is imped, The Imperial Cabinet never had any such inten- tion. On the contrary, our communication of Oc- tober 19 declared, in the most explicit terms, that his Majesty the bmperor mamtains his adhesion to the general principles of the Treaty of 1556, and that he 18 ready to come to an agreement with the signatory Pewers of that treaty, either to confirm its general silpulations or to renew them, or to substiinte ior them any other equitable ar: Tangement which may be thought suitable to seeure the repose of the Kast and the equilibrium of | Europe.
