The Charleston Convention.

We are informed that the Tennes-
see delegation have engaged rooms
for thirty at the Charleston Hotel.
In order to secure the rooms the del
egation had TO agree to pay for
them from the 10th Of April. AS
The Convention does not asst mbla
until the Odd, it is probable that our
delegates vii not get to Charleston
before The 2lst. So hat they will
have to pay for their rooms for SIX
days before they use them, This
at 81 apiece Per day viii amount to
$500, or 1910 that our delegates
will have to pay for the privilege
Of securing their rosms. i! they

BROOKLYN CHARTER ELECTION.

Following close on the heels of the Con ectcut
election is the Brooklyn Charter election, which
takes place TO MORROW, Tuesday, the Sd inst.
Owing to division among their opponents, it is
morally certain that, if the Republicans of Brooklyn
will Only turn ont in their full force, and vote for
their own candidates, the whole Republican CITY
Ticket can be elected. We have heretofore spoken
of the Importance of this election, and expressed
our unqualified appreciation of the Republican NOM
nations. Let Republican fail to vote the entire
City Ticket. Each man on it is eminently worthy
of support
We especially warn our Republican readers
against spurious tickets, substituting briggs Tam
mary Democracy for FIELD (Republican) as Col
lector of Taxes and Assessments, and Graham
Wood Democracy for DURYEA (Republican) as
Commissioner Of Repairs and Supplies. Every Re-
publican voter must examine his ballot before yot-
ing, or this fine opportunity for a Republican vic
tory in sister city may be lost by the mere trick
cry of false tickets.
We urge, again, every Republican in Brooklyn
not to fail to vote at this election, and to poc early
and for none but Republicans. The cause cannot
afford TO lose single vote.

The Republican nominations for Charter Officers,
to be voted for TO- morrow, are THOMAS w. FIELD

All these are good and worthy men, possessing
tbs full confidence of the Republicans of Brooklyn.
The attacks upon the ticket, made by pretended

columns, are, as we learn, without any foundation

ROGER S. BALDWIN is the leading Republican
candidate for Representative in New-HaveD. He
has filled nearly every responsible post in the State,
including that of Governor and that of T. S. Senator
whence he was elected eight nine years ago, by

represented South Carolina instead Of Connecticut
in voting and working to repeal the Missouri Re
strction. Gov. Baldwin will receive more votes
than any candidate for Representative ever yet
polled in any town of Connecticut, and we trust
that he cannot be beaten.

you to work to. day as men never worked till now.
Having mingled with you in the canvass, we know
that you will do your whole duty. But if there be
one Republican voter in Connecticut now detained
in this City or elsewhere than at home, we entreat
him to 90 home and vote without fail. II he cannot
sfford the expense, we feel very sure that the Re-
publicans Of his town will defray it and thank him
INTO the bargain. Do not, we entreat you, LET a

great demonstration was made at Rome on the 10Th

Letter from Turin states that the question of the
annexation of Savoy has been defnitively settled
between France and Pied@ont, and TIE Paris Pntrie
thinks the negotiations with Sardinia in reference to
Tuscany are in fair way of conclusion. The reign
of terror still prevails at Naples. The Swiss protest
against the annexation of Savoy to France is pub
lshed. The Paris correspondent of The London
Times says it is thought that the Prince Carignan
will be Governor. General Of Tuscany. A high
state of III feeling toward the Pope is entertained
at Paris, and it is said his holiness has issued
another circular stronger than the Encyclical on
the Romsgna affair.
