LONDON, Maboh 7.
The amended returns of the London Oounty Gounoil elections give the returns as —Progressive party 83, Moderates 35. The ' Pall Mall Gazette * Btates that the taot and experience of Lord Oarrington would make him an ideal chairman of the London County Cdnnoil. The Temperance party helped the Liberals in the Oounty Council elections, and the publicans the Tories. * The Times' asserts that the Moderates were praotioally nowhere. The 'Standard' alleges that faddism defeated common sense, and will not believe that it indicates the result of tbe General Eleotion. The 'Chroniole' considers it is the opening of a new age. The ' Daily Telegraph' says London is determined to tax ground landlords. The ' Daily Newß' declares that East and South have been almost completely, and the North and Centre largely, captured by the Liberals. The ' Morning Post' says the defeat does not admit of any disguise, and that domestic government degrades the Liberal election machine. Mr John Burns received the largest vote.
