Itisexintsion is thc immediate res . Out:kr-tile elections to the National
Assembly. The electoral law was lately modified in such a way that the Government could do pretty well what they liked in the constituencies. In these circumstances -the lloyalists abstained from voting altogether. The Veuizelists won some 250 seats, and the Democrats or Republicans about 120. The officers or the Army and lc:D.3w then presented a _memorandum to the Covermnent, demanding the removal of the King. The new Assembly is apparently In revise the whole Constitution, and the King will remain an exile at least until it'is decided whether Greece is to be a Monarchy or a Republic. We dare say he will not Return. The most interesting :question is 'whether _M. Yenizelos, who, after all his amazing vicissitudes, is once more in the ascendant, will return to Greece. Events undoubtedly- call him there.
