Connecticut Election.

The result of the election in this state is not
quite what we hoped for. but still furnishes
good ground for democratic congratulation.-
The Iiindoo stampede has received a powerful
check in the state, and in New Haven, its head
quarters, it has been utterly overthrown. The
democrats have elected a majority OF the rep
resentatives in this county, but the senators
nre Hindoos In towns where the wings and
Hiudoos fused" they have been generally
successful-but the democrats will at leasl
have a strong representation in the legislature
The Hindoos have not ridden over the state
quite as easily as they anticipated, and the
main column of the democracy has stood firm
in its position.
The vote in New Haven is a qualification
which almost consoles US for the general result
IL is the first time in twenty-five years that
the democracy of this town has achieved such
a victory and all honor to the lion hearted
men who have toiied steadily for that time,
and on the present occasion to accomplish it
Nobly did they rally yesterday and glorious is
the result. We know that we had the help OF
many substantial wings in accomplishing it.
and we feel too grateful for it to claim, ,unneces-
sarily. anN more of a partizan triumph than
they themselves are willing to accord. 1t is
enough for our feelings that it is a triumph over
Hindooisnl, the common enemy of every repub-
izens came up like men who know their
friends! and contributed greatly TO the result
.Netc Haren Register.
The representatives elected from New Ha-
ven, Messrs. Blackman and English, are sound
democrats and able men. II. B. Hubbard, cho-
sen in Hartford, is of the same sort.
Henry Perkins, democrat, is chosen judge Of
probate from Hartford district by 325 majority
over the whg k. n. Sc, candidate.
The election in Connecticut presents some
curious results. the most remarkable of which
is the fidelity with which the democrats have
adhered to their party. Only about 5000 of
them are missing. and the democratic candidate
FOR governor leads. although there is no elec
ton by the people. Where the wings and
know nothings have coalesced on the same
candidates, they have carried them, but where
each party has supported its own candidates,
the democrats have carried their full share

Nicholas and his Successor.

The Paris Journal des Debats says with re-
gard 10 Nicholas's death:
q Our correspondent attributes the illness Of
the Emperor to a cold. notwithstanding the
severity Of the weather, he continued his usu-
al occupations he was desirous TO see every-
thing for himself and in the most minute de-
tails he visited the soldiers in the barracks
he passed long and frequent reviews, forget
ting the precautions which his age required
in such climate, and in such a severe sea-
son. To all the observations made to him BY
his children and his most devoted servants, he
replied that he had something slse to do be-
sides~taking care Of his health. He had, how
ever, attended TO it for more than year past,
and at times felt some uneasiness. He said
that he had reached. and even exceeded, the
number of years which God had allowed to
others Of his race, and that his death was not
far distant He had treated himself accord
ing to his own ideas he had insisted on his
physician putting him on a regimen which
would prevent his getting corpulent, of which
he had a singular dread. The new Sovereign
Of Russia was initiated at an early age into
the allairs of the empire by the Emperor, his
father; he was present at the councils he
was invested with situations which gave him

useful TO the army, and to please the youth Of
the schools. Whenever the Emperor Nicho-
las quilted the capital, he left the supreme di-
I reciion Of the government 10 his son, and in
short he had taken the utmost pains to pre-
pare him to become his successor. The
Grand Duke Alexander is very popular in
Y Russia he is beloved and esteemed by the
people. He viii not exercise the great au-
thority of his father, for he does not inherit

ways. The new Empress is also highly spok-

Contemptible Business.

The know nothing legislature of Massachu-
setts has shown an extraordinary. readiness TOR
the performance of any kind of contemplate
husiAooO. Nut fluuIng business enough TO do
of strictly legislative character, the legisla-
ture has entered into an examination OF Young
ladies' schools 10 see if anything improper is
carried on there. Just out of the city of Bos-
ton, in the town of Roxbury, is a school kept
by seven ladies, Catholic Sisters of Charity.
Attending the same, are twelve young ladies,
between the ages of ten and iiteen-al Amer
leans by birth. Well, few DAYS since, the
legislature, not knoiring but there might be
something going on at this school not alto
gether proper, appointed committee TO pay il
a visit and decide for themselves. According
ly, some two dozen members visited the prem
ises on the 26th ult, and made very thorough
search. What discoveries they made, if any,
have not transpired; but, doubtless, the world
will have the whole story when the committee
come TO make report. The whole thing
shows how very easy matter it is for even a
legislative body TO make itself extremely ridic-
ulous in the estimation of all rejecting minds.
The Herald, in alludiug TO the investigating
committee, says :
'' The conduct of these people was, so far
as we can learn, as good as could have been
expected from persons who would consent to
serve upon committee raised for such a pur-
pose. We should consider il quite in keeping
with the character of The legislature that could
appoint such committee, and the men who
would consent 10 serve upon it, if they invaded
parlors and bedrooms, with their hats on, and
handled articles regarded as most sacred by
The members of religious institutions with a
levity and familiarity disgusting to all decent
ladies and gentlemen.
The New Bedford Mercury expresses the
general tone Of the press when it says, speak
ing of The proceedings of the convent commit
tee
n" The facts are potent that committee of
the Legislature visited young ladies' school
In Roxbury, In manner that if it had been
practised at the house of any Hon. legislator,
whether under order or not, he would have
kicked the intruders out il he could. and called
the police If he had not the requisite vigor of
foot. Gentie and timid ladies', ignorant of
their rights. startled and utterly confounded at
such an incurslon. could only submit. We
trust for the credit of Massachusetts sucb
scenes will not be repeated"

enacting penal law against mans appetite,
is only equalled by the absurdity of enacting a
penal law against his opinions. Not that a
mans appetite should net be under the re-
s.raints of bis reason, or that his opinions
should not conform to truth and virtue; but
that man must be far gone in stupidity, who
supposes that either OF these ends can be at
tanned by FORCE. As well might you dam up
Niagara falls with cobweb, as stay the tide
ofappetiie and passion by prison walls and
confscations.
If you wish to reform man, appeal to his
self-respect, to the higher and nobler attri-
butes of the SOUL A soft answer will turn
away his wrath, while the angry growl, and
the stern command OF unreasoning power, will
provoke his resentment and rouse his pa ssions.
Every act of virtue must be voluntary offer
ing of the heart. The semblance of virtue is
only hypocrisy, and is always the offspring of
design. 1t is pretext, which, while 1t eludes
the law, debases the man. Never does a re-
form begin in outward power, but from in
ward conviction; and never is it sustained by
the mere appearance of interest, nor can the
weight of honesty and zeal give permanent
success to a wrong principle. Error may
flourish for time, and the voice of reason
may be drowned in the clamor of passions
charity may delay her kind offices-prudence
and moderation may forsake the public coun-
cils-poltical convulsions may in day undo
the work of ages, and in their devastating
sweep, carry back the world, and reinvest So
ciety with the forms of barbaric force, yet
truth still lives, because it is eternal Truth
is omnipoteut, and while ambition and ava
rice, fanaticism and hypocrisy may work the
world into ferment, truth quietly asserts its
dominion in the human soul, and disdaining
alike the threats of tyrants, and the fattery of
fools, it achieves It's results independent of fa-
vor, and alone in the solitude of its sound re-
treat A FRIEND OF TEMPERANCE.

DECISION REvoKRD.-It will be recollected
by our readers that Immediately subsequent to
Capt. Donovan and his two pilots were revoked
by the local board of inspectors at Boston. An
appeal was made to the superintendent. and he
has recently revoked that decision, and re-
stored their licenses. 1t appears, says the Bos-
ton Journal, " that the local inspectors consid-
cred the case as falling under the law relating
to the incompetency of pilots, but the district
inspector does not 50 consider it. He does not
think that a failure to observe the pilot rules
which was not intentional. but the result of a
miscons;ruction Of them, is to be visited with
severe penalties A misconstruction does not
prove Incompetence"

participated in its deliberations. We learn Al.

animity of sentiment in reference to the future
course Of the party, prevaled-that there ap-
peared to be universal determination that past
fepds should be forgotten, that by-gones should
be bv-gonss, and that general and earnest sf-
fort should be made to consolidate and strength
en- the democratic party, by uniting its present
members III the bUnds Of closer sympathy, and
by enllsting under Its standard, men who cher
lsh lis glorious principles, but who have not
heretofore acted with the orginization-thai an
invitation should be extended to all who are op-
posed to secret oath bound political societies,
who seek To ostracise men on account Of their
religion or The accident of birth-who are op-
passed to fanaiicism in all its forms, whether it
manifests itself in the guise Of ultra abolition
ism, or intensified Maine lawism-to join the
democratic party, and aid in the effort to re-
deem the State from the rule Of the political
nouniebanks, who now trample on the Rights
Of the People, and sport with The best interests
of the Commonwealth
Such, we understand, to have been The views
and feelings Of the State Committee, and Of
lhose democrats who were in consultation with
them on the occasion in question. These views
aud feelings may may not be the views Of
The Convention TO assemble on the 2lst of June
next. Yet il is believed that they will be
found TO be true reflex Of the sentiments Of
the Democracy-pf The whole State, snd that
the views and action Of the State Convention
will be in entire harmony with the opinion en-
tertained by the State Committee.
Ii is the design that the demonstration on the
2lst Of June shall be in all respects worthy the
democratic party, and the crisis which calls for
It's wisest deliberations and most eoergetic &C
