FRANCE.
PREMIER CONDEMNS PEACE INTRIGUES. Paris, Xov. 21. M. Clemenceau, the new French Premier, made a ministerhl declaration in the Chamber that he had accepted the Premiership. There had been mistakes alas crimes, against France which would call for punishment. The new Government pledged its word that justice would be inflicted with the utmost rigor ol the law. Neither personal considerations nor the sway of political pa&aion should turn them from their dutv. Weakness in them would be complicity. Let there be no more pacifist campaigns, treasons and German conspiracies, instead of war and nothing but war. They had paid for their liberties too heavy a price to yield in any direction. The censorship would be maintained in diplomatic and military matters end on reports calculated to stir up civil Btrife.
