THE ROAR FROM CONNECTICUT.

The delivery of the Northern mail yesterday was
awaited with great Impotence and anxiety by both
parties. The Loco Focos, however, pretended to
have the utmost confidence in their success, and by
their bold expressions and loud Dragging produced it
must be confessed not hs e on tho
length announced, deeper shade came over the
ger counenances ofth Loco Focos, than it has BEEN
their fate recently to exhibit, while the Republicans
displayed an unusual degree OF qualification which
more than compensation for the anxiety which
the office-holders had previously excited.
The triumph is truly glorious one, and one Of the
surest presages of complete ultimate success through
out the Union. 1t was an envlabe privilege, as
some time since remarked, enjoyed by Connecticut,
to open the ball. and lead off in the grand succession
friends of Harrison and Reform, during the year 1910.
1t was privilege for the freemen of Connecticut,
be the first to vindcate in their persons, the conf
dence Justly reposed in the virtue and intelligence Of
the people, and to the title American citizens rghtfu-
ly possess in the nnmoested and independent parci
patton of the fruits OF liberty and good Government,
and the pursuit of happiness.
When saw The people OF that state assaulted by
the immense power and patronage OF the Federal Co
vernment-ts missionaries and etors sent into their
midst from the North and the East, and the ranking
privilege here especially devoted by numbers Of active
Loco Foco paEtiZans to the purpose OF saturatng the
state with the poisonous tracts and letters and libel
lous publications of the party in power we were not
in the understanding and virtue of the people Of Con-
nectcut, which has been most amply justified by the
result
ability and determination of the people to restore the
Government to the republican track next November.
Let the friends of Harrison and Reform every where
be stimulated by this example, and increase their la
bors to establish truth amongst the people, and
them to a united and effectua effort to rescue the
National Government from the hands of proagates
and spoers.-MddlSonaan.
A"GUN" SP1KEp.-The Richmond Enquirer Of the

see, last August gave Col Polk majority Of 500
votes. At recent election for county officers, which
turned upon party politics, the Wings triumphed.--
The he 3ys has
the most signal triumph Of our Federal Wing oppo-
nents." ave are heaten-badly beaten-and 1t ID
perfect stuff to say otherwise.
To this we may add that very distinguished gem
teman of Williamson county pledges himself that his
own and the two adjoining counties, Williamson,
jackson, and Bedford, will give heavier majority
for Harrison than the whole state Of Tennessee gave
for Governor Polk at the last August election.
