It is a grand Conservative victory. Ferry, who was a few years agoa extremist, and kuowu ns a lltdical, now the haier of the Conservatives. The leader of the liidicals 23 Clcmenccatn and his principles arc very much more advanced, more extreme titan any "opinions ever held cr urged by Gambetta or Fen y. So the victory is1 really a very fortunate one.

Tho principles of For xy and of the Conservative party fire Urns'-' condensed: (St-n:tration ol Church and State, reversion of inor iry.iin property to the .State, compul- j sory military servive for three years, progressive income tas judicial re form, and -reform of the laws of limited liahihty, insurance, sanitation and equal distribu tion of taxes. " The Clcmeiiceau party, eo badly defeated, were not satisfied with such a programme as tins. Their pUtform favored, like the Ferry platform did, the separation of Church and State, but it went a great deal .farther : it advocated tho abolition of the Sen ate and Presidency, and complete suhrdi nation of , tho execntivo to the permanent Assembly; the rd))htion of' capital punishment; civil equality of women and of children, legitimate cr not; an electivo and temporary magis tracy ; .military service obligato ry and equal for all, with the suhsti tutio.n of a national tnihltia foraper- mant army; reduction cf large alu- rics, suppression of sinecures and pay ment cf deputies.' These aud othbi' changes were; proposed. Some of them are doubtless good and needed, but the tendency-tho drift is to wards thorough, radical changes which Franco did not favor, and hence the result in the election that surprised all part cs.. !
