FRANCE.
From France the intelligence is mea-
gre. Respecting the late elections, the
Par's correspondent Of the London
Times. holds the following language
writing on the evening Of March | | -
In several instances the Government
has been obliged to accept and adopt
AS it's own, candidates whom il would
have gladly exc uded, had it dared, from
the electoral contest; and the opposition
that is now in a state oil iorpor may
soon become endowed with lie and
movement. But even as the elections
have turned out, we may be convinced
Of the TACT by an examination ol some Of
the details OF the ScrHtm. Ii appears
that The element OF hostility, or OF op-
position, has been found TO exist far more
IN the towns than in the country amoIg
the middle classes the bOurgeoise Of
the cities, than among the inhabitants Of
the rural districts.
Ii is not alone by recording their votes
that the opposition OF the former mani
tested itselI, but by absence from the
ballot. In Paris, NJ. Eugene Sue OBJ
tained more than 1000 sufirages in an
electoral district chiefly Inhabited by
the operatives, and General Cavaignac
II, 200 from the trading classes. The
spirit OF the conservative and constitu-
tional opposition is shown in the large,
though insufficient, numbers who voted
for Nj. Goudchaux and Nj. Bixio. At
Strasburg the Government nominee
scarcely obtained 1000 OF the ID 600
electors IN that city in Bordeaux 90.
600 electors absented themselves. either
from Indifference or direct opposition
and so close was the contes, at Arras,
Rennes, Nantes, and Lille that the
electoral struggle will have TO be gone
over again.
All This. showing the existence Of an
opposition, mig ht diminish the triumph
Of the Ministerial organs and should
other arbitrary measures, in addition 10
the powers reserved for itself IN the con-
stitution ocir0pee by the Executive, be
resorted TO, there Is little doubt that it
will become still more formidable.
I he same folly is enacted respecting
the dress oithe members ti the Corps
