The Great victory OF the Republicans In
ffanee. Tfff

United States. Thts was before the
election Of last Sunday. In France,
(strange rs II may seem to usl, they hold
their elections on Sunday, In order that
the masses may beiree from their labor TO
90 to the poles. The result Of that election
more than confirms our hopes Of France
as permanent Republic, aud also Of her
continued peaceful and prosperous career.
Very much such 4 tidal wave IS over
whelmed the Greenback party in this
country last November has swept over
France. The issue however was some
what different, as they have no green
hackers in France. 1t was the filling Of
the senatorial vacancies, T5in number, The
eitherwith friends Of the Republic, or with
nonarChical reactioniSts.
The constitution Of the French Senate
Is somewhat complicated. ltconsists Of
three hundred members, Of whom one
fourth are elected for life by the Chamber
OF Deputies. These, OF course, are
without exception Republicans. The
other three-fourths are elected by the
departments through the agency Of dele
gates. Under the constitution the depart
mental Senators are divided into three
classes, who retire respectively At the end
Of three, six and nine years, the object be
ing to prevent more than one-fourth Of
the Sc nate being removed at one time.
Sundays election was the first under
this arrangement, the Senators whose
terms expired having been seated three
years ago. By the operation OF the Law
seyenty.ive seats had been vacated, but
there having been seven additional vacan.
cies made By death, the 6nmberof seats
to be contested was increased to eighty
two, Of which fifty-seven have hitherto
been held by anti.RepubliCan members.
Complete returns are not yet to hand, but
the figures given leave no doubt that the
position Of the parties will be more shan
reversed Republican successes are re
ported everywhere, even in the most
