The English Mission—Senator Morton Appointed and Accepts. The New York Tribune of yesterday says editorially, that Senator O. P- MORTON was, about a week ago. appointed Ministet to England that he promptly accepted the appointment, hut requested that the whole matter should be kept secret until Gov. BAKEU should have time for consideration and iintrainmcled action in the appointment of his successor. Senator Mourns- left New York, some days ago,
OO,with (!ov. BAKKK on the subject, and suflicient time having elapsed for that purpose, the Tribune feels at liberty to announce the appointment and congratulate the country on its character.
We had suppo-ed that the Senator's feeble health would compel him to decline the appointment which, we were aware, had been tendered him. Hut however weak he may be physically, his mental strength is unimpaired, ami he will bring to '.he di-charge of hi* new and most important duties the same high qualities that have heretofore distinguished his ttfhcial conduct in every position of honor to which he has been called. The country will regret to lo^e his services as Senator but this loss will be compensated by the employment of his talents in a field where he can serve the Kepuhlic quite as ellioien'ly as in the
Senate. Since the above was in type a dispatch, has been received from Washington confirming the

A110UT PRUSSIAN PLANS.
TOUKS, Scpt.23—A writer in La Fi ance gives the following as the Prussian plan again, and claims to have facts from reliable authority. The advance on Paris was regulated "with mathematical exactness so as to bring several German armycorps to the capital by the 14th of Sept. Then Paris was to be turned on the south, cutting communication on that side with Tours, the seat of the provisianal Government. From Versailles, the ^Prussian headquarters, they were to harass Paris until it surrenders. Metz, Strasbourg and Toul still hold out and present at least a fortnight's ta: k. Meanwhile the Germans willdetach two corps to Lyon.',, Havre and Cherbourg and send flying columns throughout the country in all directions for forage. 75,000 fresh caval
ry
for that service is now expected from Germany. A portion of the programme has already been realized. The writer aflirms further that the Prussian General Steinmetz was disgraced because of heavy losses inflicted on his army by Marshal Bazaine.
SWINDLING.
One journal states that Mague, formally Minister of finance, writing privately to a friend assures him that he had a short time before the change in the government paid upon receipts presented for over one million chassepots and 100,000 other guns.
As these guns have never been seen, it shows the extent to which swindling was carried on under the old regime.
MILITARY MEASURES.
Effective military measures have been taken for the protection of Orleans and Tours.
PARIS.
No news received here from Palis. The people and journals seem to accept its absence as matter a of course. 1' USS

It is reported that the Prussians are withdrawing their forces from other poins to concentrate theii around l'aris.
Their cavalry is in incessant motion. Numberless squads of Uhlans patrol the country for miles around the capital in every direction, their main object being to cut off all communications, but Paris will surely hold out, and will proceed to hold elections for the constituent assembly even under the sabres of Prussians.
BULLETINS.

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
LONDON, Sept. 23.—The Prussian Moniteur, official organ, published at Berlin, contains this morning two notes from Bismarck to the ambassadors of the neutral powers and to the North German Confederation, in relation to proposals for peace now under consideration. The lirst note dated the 13th urges the necessity for better and more material guarantee? against a new attack of 1" ranee, especially upon the States ofSeuth Germany, Bavaria, Wurtemburg and Baden, hence the need on the part of Germany of possessing those fortresses, which are now a perpetual menace. In the second note Bismarck repudiates all idea of German intervention for the reorganiza tion of France, but says if Strasbourg and Metz remain in French hands the often sive of France overtowers the defensive of Germany. These material guarantees alone will give peace. While France re tains these places it will always consider a truce as enabling her to choose her own time for renewal of hostilities. Germany asks only passive strength to resist such attacks.
The Times publishes a telegram from Berlin, of yesterday's date, saying that Bismarck and Jules Favre were closeted all day Thursday, the former insisting on the meeting of the Constituent Assembly to ratify the treaty. Favre concurred in indemnity for the cost of the war, the sur render of part of the fleet, the dismantling of Metz and Strasbourg and possibly other fortifications.

NEW YORK.
EUROPEAN NEWS.
NEW YORK, Sept. 23.—The Tribune's Paris special writes, it is said that General Trochu intends to call into Paris all the troops which are now outside and not embraced in scouting.
The heavy guns of Fort Ivry did great harm to the Prussians massed in the woods.
The French losses are not yet published, but are reported as much less than the Prussians.
Thus has commenced theseries of struggles which inaugurates the siege of Paris, and which must now be terminated either by victory and withdrawal of Prussians, or by a defeat that will convert every house into a fortress.
The elan of the Garde Mobile is unquestionable, the resolution of the National Guard not less firm, because less boisterous.
Provinces and communes are fast coming to the rescue of the beleaguered capital. Three communes have already subscribed $500,000 and thirteen others $2,000,000 towards national defence.
The aspect of the streets changes wonderfully from day to-day. Fewer people are in them, more shops are closed, more soldiers are out, and fewer women. People grow aolemn.
At ten the cafes are rigorously dosed, and by eleven the Boulevards are deserted. Ambulances with wounded soldiers are continually passing, and we hear grim rumors of houses and whole streets being mined. Carriages passing the line of fortifications are forbidden to go off a walk, for fear of occasioning explosions. Dread of spies has not yet died out. Each man looks at his neighbor with suspicion. Yesterday morning a most curious sign of the siege was the number of foreign flags flying about Paris. I went to the English Embassy. There was the Union Jack flyingover the gateway in Fauborg St. Havre, and that there might be no mi*take, a great black board was put up to inform the public that, "This is the Englif Embassy," also a similar board on the garden side facing Champs Elysns. All the foreign cmbassys have their flags flying. Every foreign resident ii Paris hangs out the (lag of his nation, i'ae number of flags, with the stars and snipes, that meet one in every street give a vivid idea of the regard in which the French capital is held by Americans. English Hags are much fewer. It is supposed that all houses covered with such flags will be respected by both belligerents. The red cross flags of theSociety|for the Wounded are also very frequent. If any one sets up a private ambulance in his house, that is, allots one or two beds to the wounded, he may hang out a red cross flag. A.mong all the flags the American Is the favorite and Washburnc is perhaps the mast popular man in Paris.
THE ENGLISH MISSION.
The Tribune this morning says editorially that Senator Oliver P. Morton, of Indiana, was about a week ago appointed Minister to England. He promptly accepted the appointment, but requested that the whole matter should be kept secret until Gov. Baker should have time for considerate and untrammelled action in the appointment of his successor. Senator Morton left this city three daysago to confer with Governor Baker on the ubject, and sufficient time having elapsed for this purpose we are at liberty to announce the appointment, and congratulate the country on its character. Although broken in constitution by the severity of his labors in critical times, he is intellectually as vigorous as ever. INTERVIEW BETWEEN FAVRE AND BIS
MARCK.
A special correspondent in London, telegraphs the particulars of a preliminary meeting between Jules Favre and Bismarck, in the chateau of Ferriers. Bismarck received the French Minister with great courtesy, and opened the subject of peace negotiations at once. No result was reached, but in the course of the discussion Favre aaserted that the provisional Government could put Prussia in possession of such material guarantees as would make it certain that she could lose nothing by the effect after peace, even should the constituent assemaly reject the treaty that might be agreed upon. He also declared that the commanders at Metz and Strasbourg would obey any orders his Government might assign to them. In London there were some expectations that peace would be concluded on the basis of temporary occupation of Alsace and Lorraine by Prussians, and by the surrender of Metz and Strasboug. In commercial circles, however, the hope of peace is nearly aband oiied. Prussia will insist on terms which no French Government would at present dare to accept.
NEWS FROM®GERMANY. speciul to the World dated Ostend Sept. 22, says:
Dispatches from the German camp before Paris state the capture of two thouand Gardes Mobiles at Versailles and its occupation by a Prussians garrison.
It is reported from Namur that the locks on the canal of the Marne are repaired, and the Prussians compelled 4000 of their prisoners to labor on the restoration of locks. •rtlF. APPEAL of the Crown Prince of Prussia to Germany for aid to the wounded says:
In the battle fields of France Germany has awakened to the consciousness of her unity and her might. This great gain will I trust forever exert its influence in cementing our country together but our enthusiastic exultation must be allayed with deep sorrow and mourning the flower, of the youth of Germany have fallen for the fatherland many heroic leaders of our armies have bought victory with their precious blood. The heart shrinks from contemplating the still greater number of those who have been deprived henceforth of the ability to earn their living.
The Crown Prince concludes with an earnest appeal to all Germany to come forward and contribute largely and abund antly to this work. ,. AN OLD STORY.
LONDON, Sept. 23.—The World's' special aj Tours telegraphs a full confirmation of the report of the Prussian repulse before Toul, on Monday night.
The Prussian attack was general and was made in two columns, one from the line of the Meuse, and the other from the line of the Moselle.
The fighting was very severe, the fire of the garrison was sustained and irresistible, particularly at Moselle gate, and the loss of the Prussians was so severe that, with daybreak, they were in full retreat on all sides.
Active prosecution of the siege has been abandoned. The Prussian force has been left in position on the heights of Dommartin and Ganeville, and another near Vancouleus and Fong, but the larger part of the investing body left for the army before Paris.
The railway to Rouen from Paris has been occupied by the military from be-

The Uhlans have been reported to be at Beanaency on the Loire and at Menatvilla.
SPECIAL TO THE EVENING TELEGRAM. The Paris Rappel has an article very abusive of England, for refusing to take part in mediation. Advices from Mont medy give a description of the attack thereon, and state the resistance of the garrison equalled anything in the history of the war. The siege can only be described as a blockade strictly mantained by 15,000 men, occasionally protesting against the garrison holding out longer by firing a few rounds at the fortress from heavy guns. There is very little proba bility of the garrison surrendering,as pris oner report supplies constantly received from outside despite investment.

WASHINGTON, Sept.
dent has tendered "the appointment of Minister to the Court of St. James to Hon. O. P. Morton, of Indiana, who has signified his acceptance thereof.
A DENIAL.
There is the best authority for saying there is no truth in the published statement that Secretary Fish has explicitly instructed Washburne that he can do nothing whatever to mitigate the sufferings ol expelled Germans.
Washburne, under instructions of the State Department, has afforded relief and mitigated the sufferings of many Germans expelled from Paris. The limit of his efforts in that direction have been only in the capacity of physical efforts and labor.
