FRENCH NEWS [100]

EXAMINER, 29 JUNE, 1834, P. 409

This item is headed “London, June 29, 1834.” For Mill’s bibliographic entry, see No. 257. In Mill’s copy of the Examiner in Somerville College, the article is listed as “Paragraph on France.”

the french elections have nearly concluded: when the returns are complete, we will furnish an analysis of them.¹ The result, as was anticipated, is a great increase of the strength of the ministerial party; the general anticipation, even of those who care for nothing but tranquility, seems to be that this success by increasing the foolhardiness of the present Government, will in reality diminish its security. The Funds instead of rising, actually fell.

[1 ]The elections began on 21 June; the final returns (except for Corsica) appeared in Moniteur, 1834, pp. 1495-7. For Mill’s comments, see No. 262.
