FRANCE.
The election for President came off on Sunday,
the 10th inst, according to previous announce
ment, and terminated on Monday evening, with
out the slightest disturbance. On Friday and
Saturday some rioting took place in the Place
Mauboot on the part of the Garde Mobile, who
are enthusiastic supporters OF Prince Louis, but
it does not seem to have reached above street
row, although the Guards were doubled. The
contest lay, of course, between General Cavaig-
nae and Prince Louis Napoleon, the number of
votes rendered for Lamartine, Rollin and Ras-
pail being so comparatively insignificant that they
may be left out of the consideration of the result
The election returns of the IL ACCOMPLISHMENTS of
Paris show the following result: Prince Louis
Napoleon, 1885, 65; Gen. Cavaignac, 72,754;
Ledru Ron, 1855; Raspail, 1905; Lamar
tine, 330S.
In the Chamber, all parties are literally thun-
derstruck, the partizans of Bonaparte scarcely
less so than those of CavaIgnac. A majority was
xpected-indeed, counted upon with certainty
by all-but none expected such universal ac-
claim as that which has burst upon Paris from
every quarter of the country All interest in
the Presidential election, as a contest is over; it
has ceased to be a contest.
The only question now is the proportion OF the
whole population, by whose voices Prince Louis
Napoleon will be proclaimed chief Of the state.-
A well informed Paris paper says-"So far as we
can judge from the Incomplete returns that ar
rive to us from the departments, the suffrages
were divided III the following proportions: Louis
Napoleon 66 per cent; Cavaignac Fl per cent;
Ledru Rolin per cent; Raspail per cent;
Lamartne 3 per cent.
The danger now is that in the entertainments
by which the people is now effected, the cry of
"Vve PEmpereur," may be seriously raised,
and If so, the most sagacious would find it diff
cult to say what would be that issue.
The vote for Ledru Rollin and Raspail will
show the strength OF the Red Republicans and
Socialists though we are not of opinion that the
strength of that party has been undoubtedly put
forth on that occasion. Nj. Lamartine is like.
ly to poll more than few enthusiastic admirers.
The Commissioners who have been appointed
to examine the votes, will have concluded their
labors on Monday next, and the National AS.
sembly will on Wednesday proclaim the Presi-
dent ofthe Republic; we shall then, it is hoped,
feel really assured OF period Of tranquility and
repose.

Dissolution of the National assembly. On
the 30th, meeting OF the Assembly again took
place, but only 1913 members were present, and
l3 represented themselves as absent only from
ndisposition or business it was therefore deem
ed more prudent TO adjourn, and on the LIST inst
he number OF members present was greatly in
creased.
On that day so Deputies Of the left centre who
lad arrived from Berlin, entered the Hall in
body; and through one of their body applied for

which was negatived by las to I13. The cleo
ion OF new President was called for, but the
lewly arrived Deputies refused to take any part
n it, and quilted the Assembly en- maSse as they
uttered it.
