FRENCH JUDICATURE.
Titr. Standard's Paris correspondent says that one of M. Gambetta's great refomis will be to assimilate the judicature of I' ranee to that of England —to make the judges quite independent, to reduce their number, and largely to increase their salaries. At a recent meeting between the President and M. Gambetta the latter was virtually; charged with forming a new Administration, and expressed his willingness to do so; but added that, in his opinion, the Chamber must first meet, and the existing Ministry must submit its policy to its verdict. M. Ferry afterwards tendered the resignation of himself and his colleagues; but, on being made acquainted with M. Gambetta's determination, he acquiesced, so that till the meeting matters are juat as if the Cabinet had not resigned.
