The return of M. Henon, the Opposition candidate
on the democratio interest, though officially an-
nounced, has not uglily taken place. He was said to
have been elected for the second electoral district of
the Rhone (Lyons). He has not had, however, the
required majority, as on the definitive counting of
the votes there was found a deficiency of ninety-
eight. At Brest and Nantes also the majority was
only relative. The result is, that, on the 14th inst.,
'second elections will be held in the fourth electoral
district of Paris, at Lyons, Lille, Arras, Nantes,
Brest, Rennes, Chateau-Gouthier (Mayenne), and
Dinan (Cotes-du-Nord). Intelligence has been
received of the nomination of M. Bodin at Trevoux
(Mn), and of N. Delaraarre at Gueret (Creuse)—
both Government candidates. In the Saone-et-Loire,
which previously sent 12 representatives of the
Blountain to the National Assembly—six of whom
were condemned at the High Court of Versailles, and
sight driven into exile after the coup d'etat of the
2d December—the Government has succeeded in se-
curing the return of its four proteges, who obtained
80,000 votes against 3,000 given to their adversaries.
The Council of State, presided over by the Presi-
dent of the Republic, will meet some days before the
opening of the Chambers on the 29th, to examine
the projects of law previous to their coming before the
Deputies.
