MAJORITY WAS OBTAINED. The re-
ported result in France has astonish-
ed all those who were not acquainted
with the villainous efforts which were
made to obtain large majority for
the Usurper. The following from
the Paris correspondent OF the N. Y.
Commercial, will explain how ithap-
lpened that there were so few mega
tiveS:
! Tickets with the printed word
l"Yes" were distributed through the
Government officials, and on the

or course, under this famous de.
cree, the Government could prevent
all negative tickets from being prin-
ted, and our wonder is that 100000
men were found in France, who still
dared TO get their tickets, and vote
No. The election was one OF the
grossest impositions on the name Of
freedom, that was ever pelpetrated.
PRIsoNERs BANrsuED FROM FRANCE.
On the 18th ult., 46S persons. who
had been banished from France,
embarked at Havre, in the steam
frigate Canada, for Brest, from
whence they were to be sent out of
the country, in company with an
other party. Among them we're
M. NJ. Martin and Michot. Bouiel,
late representative from Paris. A
letter in the New York Express,
dated Paris, Jan. 18th, says:
"Most Of the distinguished military
prisoners who were incarcerated in
the Castle Of Ham, were liberated
on the 10Th instant, and ordered out
of France. Each one was accom-
panied beyond the frontiers bv police
agents in citizens dresses. Thev
desired TO retire to Brussels, but the
request was denied to all but Gen,
Changarnier and Col. CSSarras, who
are permitted 10 remain in Belgium,
Gen. LIE Flo, who appears to be
particularly obnoxious to govern
ment, has been sent to England
Monsieur Baze was conducted to
Aix-la Chapelle, and Gen. de Lamori-
ciere to Cologne; Gen. Bedeau is
appointed to reside for the present at
Leige. 1t will be recollected that
these were military prisoners of the
first end highest class, and their re-
naming in exile is entirely depen,
dent upon the will OF the President,
10 whom it is said that some of them
have already made oVertures of
reconciliation, and asked permission
to return 10 France.
"The most important event Of the
week, however, is the ordinance pro-
claiming the banishment-for the
sake Of public safety-of eighty-four
