Parisian corrcspondenco throwi inoro light upon the popular reactior , in favor of JSiipoleoo. The result o the recent elections was a surpriso tc many sanguine and short-sighted lie publicans. Tho Bonapartlsts vot< ? waB-not as largo as that party cxpcc I ted, but at tbo same time it waf twice as largo as anybody elso ex pccted. Tho most striking point in * i* xi .i AL~ tncse ejections is umu uiu lu^iumuu 9 vote was very small, and tho Orlcan y ists vote not counted at all. One ol , tho main results, therefore, is, that the field has been narrowed down tc 1 the contest between tho Imperialist* and the Republicans. Tho former ? gain adherents every day. A correspondent relates an oecurrcnco which illustrates tho present stato of public sentiment. A party of women wore * making purchases in a shop. "Aftei p all," said one, "if things go on in this way two months longer, they'll have t) to call back tho one they have eftcce ted to despiso so much."- "yes," said t another, "say what they may about _ Napoleon III, ho was good to the t poor. For my part, tho sooner .he comes buck tho bettor." Public talk v has a irrcat clVect upon tho French and immediately every ono in the ^ iihop was eager to say a good word 0 for the Emperor. The onerous taxcf levied by - the Kepublicans, whethei necessary or not, cannot bo borno by the pcoplo. They see that they art - poorer and not so well governed, and naturally long for a return of the old pleasant, prosperous days. 3 The Opinion Nulionalc says thcro is a fresh departure of skilled workmon from Paris, among whom somo may y rank as real artists. Thoso men arc i- seeking employment in England, Ens c sia and the Ui.ited States. After the e ieonoclasm of the wholesale burning ? by the Communo, thfa exodus socnifc e to be a very singular proceeding, as there must bo work enough to do in 1- tho ruined city to givo employment l" to thousands of artisans of all do scriptions. The truth is, however that the solid thinking masses of the French people have no confidcnec in tho pscudo republican governmenl which now wields tho destines of the nation. lis weak, vacillating policy A<7ntfo hnnflmr Kcorro of b'ood iuru?)ijauvi? w mow..*. shed and destruction, and tlio skillet workmen, therefore, do not caro tc 0 remain where they may bo callei upon at any moment to cut the throat; of their brethren and bo deprived o y tijo means of support.

Tho meanest thing that has appeared in-a liadical nowspaper lately, has j been a reproach cast upon the South ^ that it did not contribute more largo- t ly to the relief of tho sufferers by the Chicago fire. Tho insinuation made is that tho hearts of tho Southern 1 pcoplo overflow with bitterness j against their Northern, neighbors, 1 and that tho cry of distress which O .1. _ _1 it. A. went up lroin tno asaes 01 .uiu u^-au- \ lated city touched no chord in their t jaundiced and implacable breasts. It i is unpleasant to think that there is oven a Kadical so wickcd as to strive i to make.political capital out of the j Chicogo calamity, and yet this is the ? only interpretation wo can giwc to to this Kadical attack ori the impoverished South. It is made apparently < for the purpose of producing further \ estrangement between' the sections, t As for the chargo that the Southern pcoplo'are selfish and unfeeling, we s will vcnturo.to say that it is entirely t unfounded.

If there is any cxcuso for drawing comparisons, tho stricken Palmetto ' Stato will stand quite as well, in the ' oyes of the nation as her wealthy and ( prosperous Western sister.' It is re- ? mcmbered in South Carolina to this day, that when an eminent divine of i Columbia appealed to a Christian I brother of the samo denomination, in c i Chicago, to go among his people and r i ask for succor for those whose homes I' had been burned and whose substance t > had been eaten up by Shorman's t army, tho brother sadly replied: "I > fear my flock would rather burn you over again than givo you a dollar/' * j Tho Carolinians who, remembering { . this, scut money and clothing to llli- ' i nois the other day, dosorve something . better than Radical sneers at their r offerings. Let it further bo remeraF bcrod, to^io credit of theso unfortu. nate people, that when they exhibit- ' i ed this noble spirit of forgetfulness of " i the past, an Illinois soldfer, at the 1 head of tho Government, was ravag ing tho Stato with his troopers, s crowding the prisons with peaceable a i citizens and spreading terror and con- t ! sternation in every direction.?New d York Times.
