London, September 13. The Tribune correspondent before Strasbourg writes on the 9th : In the Borties on Tbursday and Friday the Frenob report the Germán losa from 3,000 to 10,000 meo. The actual loss was under fifty. The total loss during the last fortnight will not exceed 150. Tho efforts to divertthe Itiver III, wfaioh filis the inoat, have resulted in a otnplete success. Now mortara havo been placed in position, throwing Ehells of two hundred pounds weigbt. This fire on tho faoe of the citadel is exceedingly cffective. A breach has already been made in the walls, and an as?ault will bo made a week henee. Capitulatiou ia espected before the final attempt. Recial Eispatch to tbe Niw York Herald. Erumath, near Strasbourg, Scpt. 9. The operationsagainst Strasbourg are oarried on slowly but surely. Gen. Loewensky, Gen. Von Wccrder'e chief of Btaff, 8ays the place will cortainly fall on the 24th instant, barring unforseen accidenta to the works of approach. The course pursued in the siege is not entirely a matter of choice. Strasbourg is surrounded by thrr a concentrio mo .s eighteen feet deep. Unless tho channel of the 111 can be changed they presert an insurmountable obstacle to stornrng. The general belief is that Ulrich wil! capitúlate as soon as the third parallel approaches completion. The first and second parallel are armed with twentyfour nomxWa Py V :' ' i Í" ' -%a iiiu uuo nundred and twenty-five pounders, which at a distance of a couple of Lundred yards can hardly fail to slonce the batteries.
