The Democracy Of Connecticut UNITED and
HARMONIOUS, have achieved most brilliant
lrumI h; wuhslandirg the increased vote
cast over that lin lS4l. This complete
overthrow Of coun skin aud Clay whlggery
in that state may be alIrIbmed 10 two causes
The disgust which the people generally leIl l'F
The outrageous course pursued by The wings
not only before aud at the time OF the Presl-
dental Election, but ever since, and also 10
the miserable attempt OF The Home Leageurs'
Tarifdes, to load the people with taxes Tor
The benefit of few lordly manufacturers. Inc
people are willing to he taxed TO pay honest
debls, butt, call for Ave or ten dollars from
each individual, 10 be handed over 10 manu>
featuring company, is carrying IheJoke III
tie too far. Some say protective arItt wou'o

giving three barrels cf AOnr for a sui! OF broad
cloth when Re might procure The same with

So II does. And If you are cheated out OF
your whole property. or lflt is stolen ftom you
It is omatter-it ts all III the country. And
If one man or set OF men are made rich, and
another man or set of men made poor, II is
all the sHme-Ihe property, The money Is all
in the country, The people are not 10 COM
plain if they do not get mill of IL The
people of Connecticut have looked upon this
question in lis proper light.
In announcing the glorious result the Hart
ford Times says, II Is with no ordinary leeI-
ings of pleasure that We announce 10 ourDem
ocratic friends throughout the UuoD, the res
cult of The election held in this State on Mon
day. Democracy is triumphant Through the
length aud breadth Of the Stale, her proud
flag is unfurIed, and waves over one of the
most complete and triumphant victories ever
achieved in connecticut by any party. Both
branches of The Legisature-the Slate tick
ct is ours, complete, without doubt. lnjont
ballo, we shall from present. appearances, have
two thirds.
In recording this most gratifying result TO
the friends Of equal rights, we feel that every
Democrat has cause for rejoicing But we
would not exu over and taunt our opponents,
as has been their practice towards US: they are
fallen and great is their humiliation and shame.
The people have decided against them and
their OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES their bad Govern"
ment, and reckless course.
When we consider the tremendous influen-
ces with which the Democrats had 10 contend
the army of office-holders The Banks and
corporations generalty-we must confess we
are surprised al the overwhelming defea, Of
our opponents. But the people are sick Of
Whiggery~ disguised with their false promis-
es and corruplons, and have torn themselves
from their embrace even in Connecticut. We
anticipated victory but not one SO over
whelming The "sober second thought" has
we'll and faithfully done its work.
The Senators elected aS far as heurd from
are, Democrats 10, Wings 5.
The Representatives elected asfar as heard
from are S5 Democrats, 81 Wings, and two
Aboluionlsts. The returns on the popular
vote are SO incomplete that we consider it
useless 10 publish them. We have no doubt
tina. Gen; Cleveland The Democratic candidate
for Governor wall be elected over all the can
ddales But if this should not be the case,
he will be elected by the Legislature Mr..
Esworh will 10 consequence "prsclice law
as heretofore" One hundred cheers for the
Democracy Of Connecticu!
