THE FRENCH ELECTIONS.
Tho Meaning Of the Republican Triumph
Rod Plans OF the Government.

LONDON, Oct IA special despatch from
Paris to the Times says: THE country has
spoken very clearly. After i've months ~ un-
heard Of pressure, fewer than forty scats have
been gained 10y the Government. and these
chiefly through local influence, as elections are.
The Republicans have boen made compact and
stronger by the mission given them 10y France.
They have q majority of 1874. There is not
Chamber in Europe containing such n majority.
People are amazed when they consider the
resolution and energy the electors must have
had to bring about such result. despite
