From 3 o'clock I have observed a very large number of the Versailles troops under arms at a short distance from the Point du Jour, and a considerable body of the Insurgents watching them from near the Vaugirard Gate. At 5 o'clock the white flag was displayed at the Porte d'Auteuil. Orders have been given for the troops to march onward and occupy it. M. Thiers has issued a circular, dated noon to-day, in which he says:-- "Several Prefects having demanded that news should be published, the following answer has been sent to them:--Those persons who are uneasy are greatly mistaken. Our troops are working at the approaches, and at the moment of writing the breaching batteries continue their fire upon the walls. Never have we been so near the end. The members of the Commune are busy making their escape." The breaching batteries are still keeping up a very heavy fire against the _enceinte_. M. Thiers has sent a despatch to the Prefects announcing that the gate of St. Cloud was forced down by the fire of the Versailles guns, and General Douai then rushed with his men into the interior. The troops under Generals Ladmirault and Glinchamps were at once set in motion to follow them. The Versailles troops entered Paris at 4 o'clock this afternoon at two different points--namely, by the St. Cloud Gate at Point du Jour, and by the gate of Montrouge. The ramparts were abandonned by the Insurgents. * * * * * THE CAPTURE OF PARIS. MAY 21st.--AND 22d. The great event of yesterday came upon every one by surprise. It had been expected, but not for yesterday. Even the Marshal Commanding-in-Chief looked onward to at least six more days of sapping and mounting of batteries and actual breaching before his army would be able to make the final movement. A certain number of the troops were inside the _enceinte_ before any one but themselves knew of it, and Auteuil and the Point du Jour were shelled for nearly two hours after they had fallen into possession of the forces of Versailles.
