The Express must know better than this. The
Wing party never polled much, if any, over 1000
votes in New Hayen-neYer $500. Tie Republ-
cans last year made great effort, aud gave Gov.
Buckingham 267l votes. They have now given
him 3,220--sOme 400 more than were ever till now

the Sbams have row given Seymour 1905 votes
more than One thousand mole than were ever till

Does any ore reed to be told how this was brought
BbOut1 Fernando Wood is master of the art Of
polling the largest number Of votes from given
number Of voters, and he has been personally iu-
structipg bis Connecticut brethren in the science.
The New-Haven poll is the best sample of his work
manship afforded in the State; but Seymour's
Elertn Hundred extra votes there were not cast by
old Whigs," but by gentlemen who very recently
left the banks Of the Shannon and the Litey, some
of whom went up 10 Connecticut for the occasion.
The "Old Wings" of New-lIaven are not very
likely to desert such men as ROGER S. BALDWIN
and VIM. w. BoARDMAN to frateInize with Fer
nando Wood or either Brooks.

CONNFCTICUT.

The recent efforts to break tho Republican line
by carrying CONNECTICUT for the Slave Democ-
raoy were never before equaled in desperation.
Money never flowed so freely in any former State
Election. In some cities, our friends found all the
eligible public halls hired weeks ago, and closed
against them till Election. The Naturalization mill
was worked with utter recklessness up to Saturday
night. Fraudulent voting-a crime hitherto almost
unknown in Connecticut-was largely planned and
perpetratsd. The influences of Southern tfade, I"
and of threats of its withdrawal, were welded 10
the utmost. Yet the Republicans have signally
triumphed, securing U. s. Senator for six years
ensuing though We shall not be surprised to learn

The Brooklyn Charter Election yesterday re-
suited in the success of the Soft Democracy,
Edmund briggs being elected Collector of Taxes
and Assessments Bernard O'Nelll Commissioner
of Repairs and Supplies, and Charles Tierney
Street Commissioner, both wings of the Democracy
uniting upon the latter. The vote was very light,
and the Republicans polled less than their due
proportion, so that the chance of carrying the city
was thrown away. OF the Aldermen elect, are
Democrats to two Republicans, and of the Super
visOrs IL are Democrats TO Republicans.

The proceedings Of our Legislature yesterday
will be found deeply interesting to New-YOrkers
The Two Houses seem to be at loggerheads with
regard to the true financial policy of the State the
Central Railroad having majority 10 the Senate
and the People in the House. We still hope for o
triumph of the People, either through the passage
of the Assembly bill to repeal the act of 1851,
whereby the Railroads now consolidated into the
Central were relieved from the further payment of
Canal Tolls or by some equivalent. The demand
of The Senate that in case of the re-mp0sitiOn of
Canal Tolls the Central shall be left free TO charge
such rates of fare as it shall see t seems clearly
just. But to accept gross payment from the
Railroads in place of tolls, would be Suicidal as it
would preclude any increase Of Canal Tolls.
The bill authorizing the sale by the State to the
City of lands outside of and adjoining the City
limits, as fixed by the Charter Of 1890, excited q
ripple in the Assembly. The main provisions of the
bill seem to have excited no objection, but section
(eiven rerbatm in our correspondents lstter) au-
thorzing the Controller to settle with the States
Iessets of the West Washington Market property
was warmly opposed, though it was sustained and
the bill parsed. That section seems to US obscurely
worded It does not in terms Interfere with the
appeal taken by the City from the judgment OBJ
tanned against her as to back rents, and yet such
may be its effect. 1t is erninently desirable that
this claim should be equitably settled without
further expensive litigation; but the assertion of
the Speaker that our Corporation Counsel has pro-
nounced the judgment against the City just and
valid is Lews to US. We trust the Senate will as
certain the facts in the before acting On the
bill; and it might be well to join the Corporation
Counsel with the Controller in negotiating tho pro-
posed Compromise. Let US be certain that every
thing 10 jar and abOye-board.

A bill is before the Legislature proposing i'm
portant changes in the Police Jurisprudence Of our
City. Being got up by the Police Jut ce', we pre-
sumo it contains many wholesome provisions. But
S26 authorizes the Police Justices to appoint a
Police Justices Attorney" to be paid from the
County Treasury and S27 authorizes said Attorney,
{" by and with the consent of said Board of Police
"Justice.," "to appoint Assistants, in unlimited
numbers to be paid in Like msnner. Although
Mr.. Manierre has been made to father this bill, we
think even he will agree, on reflection, that no such
provisions ought to be adopted. i; our CITY needs
new Offices, let her Municipal authorities call for
them. But she cannot need any such litter as this.
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1860-04-04

that one if not two Of the minor State Officers
are against US. Lt-Gov. Boyd, as en- old-time
Aboltonis, was especially struck at, and lost some
Republican votes. The prevalent impression in the
State, however, seems to be that the whole R,pub-
licsn ticket is elected. No one even pretends to
doubt that the Legislature is overwhelmingly
Republican.
Outside of the few but populous localities where
in the heavy Naturalization told against us, there is
no change from las. year. The vote is heavier but
the proportions remarkably well preserved. The
cities and q few large manufacturing towns alone
exhibit gains for the Sham Democracy.
Thir election bears two lessons. The 6rst is one
of wsrnibg-of sdmonition. Many Republicans
ars accustomed to talk and act as though we had
scarcely more to do than to count the votes next
November They bold that our adversares cannot har
monize on the Territorial qnestion-that the Suqat-
ter Sovereignty men and the Southern clamorers
for Congressional Slave Code for the Territories
will quarrel at Charleston, and that we shall thence
forward walk over the course. Connecticut dis
proves all this, and shows, that the approaching
Presidential contest ia to be the severest ever
known. The Sham Democracy will not quarrel
at Cbarlsston-they love the "spSils of victory
too well for that-st all events, we have no reason
to suppose they will. The strongprobability is that
they will meet in perfect array, and will give us
the most desperate fight of the last halfcentury.
They are not the boys to surrender Sixty to Eighty
Millions per annum and Sixty Thousand desirable
Offices without struggle.
On the other hand, the result proves that strong
as they are, We are yet stronger. Only let our
nominations be unexceptionable, cur union perfect,
our organization effective, and our exertions such
as beft the magnitude OF the stake, and we shall
beat them in November. CONNECTICUT shows
that the strerg 9Th is really with us, if we husband
and exert it. We can beat them; but it will take
us all to do it, and it will be all we can do at that
Let us organize at once for the struggle and the
victory

dered him the object of such afectiorate homage
from bis countrymen, it combines an exquisite
beauty of expression, and wealth of poetic Illus

Mr.. McCLERNAND proceeded to sustain bis asssr
ton made yesterday, that there was no instance -
which Congress had enacted special penal coaS ~

was general in its application and extended 70 treason
and other ofenses against the United States Congress
by erecting territorial government, had delegated o
tain powers 80 that the criminal became smenapie
the local law. He admitted that polygamy is grsas
evil and nuisance In the eyes Of Christendom, ana
that Il deserves TO be exrpaed but as the execution
OF this proposed law is left to the Mormons does any
man be ieve Mormon, who has plurality OF wives,

The House of Representatives yesterday con-
tinued the discussion of the PoIygamy bill. Several
Southern Democratic members took strong ground
in favor of the power of Congress over the Terri
tories. Popular Sovereignty Jared badly in their
hands. They were careful, however, to declare
that while Congress could rightfully abolish
poIygamy, the "twin relic of barbarisnn" cannot
be touched by it, In the course of the debate, Mr..
jenkins, a chivalrous Democrat, of Virginia, dis
tinguished himself by using the language of a
BLACKBOARD to Mr.. Farnsworth of Ill. Mr. Farms
worth answered the fool according to his folly
and that was the end of the natter at least for the
present.

BULLS BEAD.-The opening day of the great cattle
market in Forty street. this week, did not ot
anything to make droves feel jolly. We think the
plice OF buocks was from 81 head lower, according
b weight and quality, than it was a week ago. and
bv the pound for the net weight of beef, the asking
pric, was about half cent lower. And salesmen
declared that butchers would not buy at the reduced
rates without concession in their favor in the estma-
ton of weight Of cattle equal to another half cent
The range of prices was from to lOl cents pound
net, but very few wore sold at either extreme The
general price was to 10 cents net pound.
There were over 3,lOO head of bullOcks reported
yesterday for SALE not counting the Sunday cattle,
which this Christian city permits to be sold and driven
through the city on the Sabbath. The general average
quality of the stock in market is very much better than
II was a.week ego. good many Of the cattle hail
from Iowa, and show evidence of high feeding upon
an abundant crop Of corn but the stock is generally oil
a coarse quality, and embraces not few rough oxen
which have made journey to Pixies Peak aud back,
which bas not much improved their quality for the
lovers Of tender beef.
OF the state Of the market yesterday, 1t was gener'
ally considered dullthe butchers were not present IN
great force did thois present seem at all disposed
tobuy freely The consequence is that good portion
OF the stock left over for TO day, and the market
closed Last evening with very buoyant prospects for
owners to-day.
