THE SITUATION IN FRANCE.-In the
French Senate yesterday NJ. Arago, in tue
name of the left, moved the previous Quss-
tion Oh the Interpolation of ministers as ID
their conduct of the elections. Toe motion
tailed by vote OF I55 10 l3O, and the debate
preceded. M. De Kendral, the mover max
ing an address on the Interpolation. After a
cebate the order of the day proposed by the
right was passed by a vote OF Isl 10 126. The
London Tunes Paris correspondent says the
announcement OF the result of the vote ia
The senate was cheered by the LEFT. The
hgures show that the senate has virtually
sbandOned the cabinet, as excluding five
votes contributed by the ministers them
selves. The cabinet commands less than
nall OF the senate. The correspondent ra-
CARDS this as a sign that unless the marshal
henceforth governs with the ma jority, the
senate may be regarded as having also aban-
dOned him.
