I go in occasionally to see the Germans, as I can talk their language, and it cheers them to hear it.

I see in the newspapers that wounded Bavarians and Saxons are perpetually crying "Vive la France!" I can only say that those here do nothing of the kind.

They do not seem to be particularly downcast at finding themselves in the hands of their enemies.

They are treated precisely as the French are, and they are grateful for this.
It is said this evening that the troops will be withdrawn and return to the Bois de Vincennes.

Some say that we have left 20,000 men at Villiers and Champigny; but I take it that our loss does not exceed 6,000 men.
The general idea seems to be, that to-morrow we are to try to get out in another direction, either by Chatillon or Malmaison.
