tions-The Anti-Dynasfic Feeling.
Prom Gagnani's Messenger, of Paris, August o.
The government organs have been reproached by
the opposition press with maintaining an enbar-
raised silence with respect to the result Of the cleo
ton in the Jura. The Constitutional now departs
from that mutsm and publishes observations which
not destitute OF weight. Replying to the DebdtS
which had accused II OF regarding the election OF
NJ. Grevy as antidynastc, the first named journal
refuses firmly admit that the % 600 votes received
by the author of the celebrated antimOnarchica
amendment were given en- ndsse against the empire.
The writer iu the Constitutional Says:-We know
il only too WELL and the election in the Jura once
more confirms our conviction that many persons
who would be In state Of despair to see the impe
rial dynasty fall take pleasure in voting for the can
didate Of the most advanced opposition, either to
satisfy their relative antagonsm, and because they
imagine that no danger can arise from thus acting,
Or from personal sympathy with the person who
seeks their SURFACES. We find no difficulty In admit
ting that this last named motive must have had
great influence In favor Of M. Grevy, who
enjoys much consideration in his native de-
partment and whose election as Batonnier OF
increased prestige most opportune as regards
his political candidateship No, we affirm again,
% 900 electors Of the Jura who voted for NJ. Grevy
should be- fpsO ydCtO, antidynastc. No, there are

we well know, very few republicans. This is for
additional motive to warn those benevolent
electors and say, beware OF Illusions and weak
ness, for they cost dear" As to the means OF sue
cess attributable 10 the use of electoral coalitions
we have judged II, aye, and most accurately. Let
the opposition then cease to speak TO Of the
morality Of the means which 1t resorts to. Their
