The result of the German elections seems fa- vorable to a limited extent to the Conserva- tives, though large number of districts re- main in which second elections will be requir- ed. We judge. however, that the Liberals will still have substantial control of the feder- al parliament; unless Bismarck can effect some compromise with the Ultramontanes. The ef- fort of the Government to take advantage of the indignation aroused by Socialist attacks upon the Emperor's life, has been failure, in spite of the severe restraint put upon the press, and the persecution of Socialists. This last party though electing no more members, per- haps, than they had before, have boiled an enormous vote-nearly 800, 900, it is said-or about double. their vote at the last election.
