WILMER AND SMITHS EUROPEAN TIMES.
The returns Of the French election are now COM
pleted, and, notwithstanding the utmost exertions
ofultra-republicans and communists, who eftneither
fair nor foul means untried to effect their purpose,
the lists exhibit triumphant testimony to the po-
pularity Of the principles propounded and acted
upon by LAMARTINE and his moderate party. In
deed so clearly and emphaticaly has this express
sion of popular feeling been manifested that some
fears are entertained Of the minority resorting to
Interior measures in order to render the past pro-
ceedings nugatory.
