The proposed alteration in the law of h.lection occupies, almost exclusively, the attention of the pear of France, and has crested much alarm among Min isters ; wile, it is imagined, retain their places on a very isistader tenure, as tin re is a dee idcd oinjoiity against tlietn in the Chamber of Peers —The Marquis de Bar thel:my% proposition fir an Address to the King fur an olteratiant in the Election Lax, has been carried in the fees. by a majority of 98 against 55. It was expected, that either the Ch.onbtrs would be dissolved, or a num ber of new Peers be created, that Ministers should not remain in a minority ; but the rumour is premature. It is doubtful whether ary persons would accept a Peer age on such except'onable terms ; as, Mgt ad of being, elevated, they would be lowered !la the good opinion of their friends, and the estimation of the politic.
