French Elections-Liberty in Prussia.
Although we present-mostly from Wilmer d
Smiths European IfmeS-our '' third edition. of
the Cambrias news below, our readers will require
no apology at hands, for it is of very material
interest: -
The progress of revolution throughout Europe
since our last number, is marked rather by steadi-
ness and determination than by that preeiptancy
and rashness which formed prominent features in
its earlier stages and events, Therefore, do not fol-
low each other in that rapid succession which some
time ago characterized them. As the movement
had it origin in France, affairs seem to be there
earliest settling down into order; and is antici
pated the elections prove favorable to the Lamar
tine moderate party, the spirit OF republlcanlsm
will get fair trial in that country. In other por-
tons of ihe Continent the movement Is not so fully
matured and we may therefore look forward, for
time yet, TO intelligence OF a similar character
to that now publish.
The elections to the Assembly form almost the
absorbing topic in French affairs; and although
it was not expected that the choice of the electors
would be made known in Paris till this morning.
Next to the elections, the internal dissensnns OF
the Government excite attention. Another eXplo-
sion is reported to have taken place on the 9th
instant. in which, as usual, I'M. Lamartine and
I.edru Rollin Were i'll open conflict. The latter
desired the further postponement OF the meeting OF
the Assembly the former opposed it; the latter
threatened a demonstration the former treated the

Intimidation and undue influence are openly i'm
puted not only to the agents of the government,
but to its very members. Voters are menaced by
the pro-consuis of the Minister of the Interior with
another Goth of August and with a reproduction of
the horrors of the I'd of September, if they do not
blindly deposit in the urn, unmodifed, the list given
to them by those pro-consus themselves.
Complaints are raised OF improper influence and
fraud even in the capital NJ. Louis Blanc is
openly charged with avallmg himself OF the ma
chinery of the commission of the Luxembourg, and

ambition
