prosperity to Northern manufactures. though u !.
demonsta sble that the present Slave Sts,ss' hao
they always been Free, weud have bad ut iess'
twice the population and required many times the
amor ut and value Of wares and fabrics now con-
sumed by them. the Yankee understanding is in
suited by arguments which imply that their DISPOSE
tion to buy and their power to consume are based
on Slavery alone.
The authors of such Arguments act wisely in not
trusting to their force. They do well to back their
menaces with golden persuasions. They have
raised ard cent Into the State more money than
was ever before contributed for such purposes BY
all the parties that have existed since there was
Connecticut. Having thus flooded che State with
foreign money, they raise the hue and cry that tie
Republicans have done Likewise, which is utterly
false All the money raised by the Republicans
for this contest is not equal to the mercantile sub
scription in aid of the Sham Democracy in THE City
alone The men who expect to make their politics
profitable are nearly all on that side; they can
well afford TO give $5O0s FOR cause by which they
expect to make their hundred thousands. SO to
whatever of intrnic strength their party has, they
add all that money can buy. OfcOurse, their meet
res are large, their banners respondent, their pro-
cessions long and well lighted. They will pou on
Monday within FIVE hundred votes Of all who could
by any means be persuaded, bulied or bribed to
vote their ticket.
Yet they will Tot succeed simply because all
these are not enough. They may possibly swell
their vote to Forty Thousand; but the Republicans
will still be One to Two Thousand better. The
cities and more populOus towns-liartford, New
Haven, Norwich New-London, Middletown,
Bridgeport, Stamford, Waterbury, Litchfeld,
New Milford, etc.-wi all be desperately contested
and their last vote brought out We only fear that
the completeness of The Republican victory may be
marred by failure to briUg out the full vote OF the
uncontested towns. Old.Milford, Vernon, Ridge
field, Norfolk, Putnam, Derby, and forty other
townships-some of them Overwhelmingly Repub-
lcan, others bopelessly adyerse-will fall short OF
their full vote by twenty to thirty each, unless
specially cared for; ard chat may loose
the Senate. or even endanger some part of the
State ticket. The Republicans had $40 majority
last year. which subsequent Naturalizations cannot
have more than balanced; while at least three
fourths of the young men Who have attained their
majority since April last, with fully twothirds OF
last years stay -at-homes, are Republicans. All
that is needed to insure a signal Republican tn
umph is the calling out Of the last vote in the towns
not seriously contested And this, friends in Con-
necticut we eDtIeat you to make certain before
the sun sets tonight. Having securedthe presence
of each Republican voter at the polls, rain or shine
sick or well, you may rest in faith Of glorious tn
umph on Monday.
AS to Rhode Island, the coalition Of ArstOcrat
with Democrat, Catholic Irish with Know-NOthing,
Wealth and Power with Ignorance and Debase-
ment, is unquestionably formidable. We presume
the Fillmore American nabob who runs for Cover
nor will take every Irish vote which is not that of
Republican, and that, by the unprecedented out
pouring of money in his behalf, his poll will be
swelled even above that of Fremont in 80, which
was the largest ever made for any one. But the
strength of the Republican party is never known
till it is put to the seyerest tests.
Rhode Island is bound to poll some twenty-five
thousand votes next Wednesday and we are cen
fdent that the odd thousand will be found on the
Republican side when the canvass is completed.
The farming towns have not for years been out in
their strengths the manufacturing workers, even in
the Spragues own factories, know how to be at the
same time faithful in the mills to their employ
ers and at the polls to their own convictions of patri
otc duty and public well-being. A disaster in Con.
necticut might paralyze and PROSTATE Rhode
Island; Republican triumph in the land of Trum-
bull and Sherman will arouse, eectrify and render
her inyincible. Freemen of Connecticut the des-
TIMES of continent rest heavily upon you; butwe
know you will prove equal to the emergency On
