Hail. Connecticut!

Our returns by Telegraph last night OF yester
DAYS Election in CossKcrlcUr leave no manner OF
doubt that the Wings have gloriously triumphed,
reslecting their State officers by fully 5000 Plu-
raisy and at least 900 majority over all oPposi-

his War Of Conquest can hardly fall below 5000.
