 In almost every other town in the county not fully heard from, the result is equally as animating as the above. All that is wanting to carry things strait in Connecticut is a general attendance at the polls. Let the freemen always bear this in mind, and they have nothing to fear.

 TICUT, TO THE LADIES OF GREECE.
 SISTERS AND FRIENDS:
 From the yeals of chi .dhood your nat; cline has been the theme of our admiration. Together with our brothers and husbands, we early learned to love the country of HO- mer and Aristides, of Solon and of Socrates. That enthusiasm with which the glory of ancient Greece enkindled in our hosoms, has preserved q fervent friendship for her descen- dants. We have beheld with deep sympathy the horrors of Turkish domination, and the struggle so long and nobly sustained by them for existence and for liberty.
 The communications of Mr. Howe, since his return from your land, have made us inti- mately acquainted with your personal suffer- ings. He has presented many fyOu to us, in his vivid descriptions, as seeking refuge in caves, and under the branches of olive trees, listening to the footsteps of the destrOyers, and mourning over your dearest ones slain in battle.
 Sisters and Friends, our hearts bleed for you. Deprived of your protectors by the i'll fortune of war, and continually in fear of e wills worse than death--our prayers are with your wanderings, your wants and your grief. In this vessel, (which may God in his mercy send to your shores) you will receive small portion of that bounty with which He has so graciously blessed us. The poor among us, have given according to their ability-and our little children have aided that some of you and your little children might have bread and rament to put on. Could you hut behold the faces of our little ones brighten, and their eyes sparkle with joy, while they give up their holidays, that they might work with their needles for Grpece-cOu!d you see those females who earn subsistence by labOur. casting their mite into our treasury, and talk ing hours from heir repose, that an addition al garment might be furnished for you-eould you witness the active spirit that pervades all classes of our community, it would cheer for a moment the darkness and misery of your lot
 We are inhabitants of part of one of the smallest of the U. S. and our donations must therefore of necessity be more limited than those of the larger cities; yet such as we have we < i've in the name of our dear Savior with our. blessings, and our sincerest prayers for you.
 We know the value of sympathy-how it arms the heart to endure-hOw it's plucks the sting from sorrOw-therpforp, we have writ ten these few lines to assure you, that in the remoter parts of the country,as we'll as in her high places, you are remembered with pity and affection.
 Sisters and Friends, we extend across the ocean our hands in the fellowship of Christ We pray, that His Cross and the banner of your land may ride triumphantly over the Crescent and minaret--that your sons may hail the freedom of ancient Greece restored, and build again waste places, which the op- pressor hath trOdden down---and that you, admitted once more to the felicities of home, may gather from past perls and adversties,a brighter wreath for the Kingdom of Heaven,

 Secretary of the Greek Committee of
