Excerpt from The Government of M. Thiers, Vol. 1 of 2: From 8th February, 1871, to 24th May, 1873
The decree of the Council was signed at early dawn, immediately inserted in the Journal Official, and placarded in Paris a few hours later. Orders were issued for its immediate dissemination in the departments, but it was evident that this must for some days be impossible, or at least very difficult. The election was fixed for the 8th February, and the meeting Of the Assembly at Bordeaux for the 12th. When M. Jules Favre announced these decisions to Count Bismarck, the first words uttered by the Chancellor were, It is impossible.

Excerpt from The Government of M. Thiers, Vol. 1 of 2: From 8th February, 1871, to 24th May, 1873
This narrative opens on the 28th of January, 1871, a date of solemn import, that of the capitulation of Paris. On the 27th at midnight the firing had ceased, in virtue of a verbal agreement, which was to be ratified on both sides on the following day. Early on the morning of the 28th, M. Jules Favre went to Versailles, but Count Moltke, who was not satisfied with the stipulations that had been agreed upon, showed but little readiness to bring matters to a conclusion; at every moment some fresh difficulty was raised by the Staff, and the armistice was not signed until ten o'clock at night. It was one o'clock a.m. of the 29th when M. Jules Favre rejoined his colleagues.
