CONNECTICUT.

The utmost exertions were pat forth by the Slave
Democracy of this State Last year, under circum-
stances which gave them high hopes of success.
They had two of the four Members of the last Con-
gress both candidates for reelection, one of them
eminently rich, liberal, and popular; they had as
their candidate for Governor the man who had
worked most for their cau,e and received least in
returp and whose vote in Congress against the Ne
braska bill was decided element of strength for
this contest They had q rich banker on their State
ticket, and money was never poured out more pro-
fusely. The State was thoroughly canyassed on
both Sides the vote called out had never been ex'
ceeded but in the Presidential Election of 1856; yet
the Republicans carried all four Members of Con-
Dress both branches of the Legislature, aud their
State Ticket by 300 majority-Gov, Buckingham
having $40.
The approach of another Presidential Election
has constrained the deyoees Of the Slave Power To
make another and even mole frantic effort this year

The news from. Europe, brought by the Fulton,
which arrived here yesterday is of unusual import
ance even for these times. In the British House
of Commons Oh animated debate took place on the
5th inst. upon the annexation Of Savoy and Nice to
France. The Ministry opposed all EXPIRE Isions I'M
friendly either to the annexation or to the French
autocrat aud dwet with warmth on the benefits to
be expected from the contamination OF MIR. Cob
den's commercial treaty. In this debate the indi-
cations were very clear that Lord PalmerstOn's
Cabinet haze determined 20 make no opposition to
the extension of the utheastern French frontiers
to the Aps. CotemporaneOusly with this we learn
from Nice that enthusiastic demonstrations in IA
vor of annexation are made there; while in Italy it
seems that the people Of Tuscany are to vote on
the question of their incorporation with Sardinia,
notwithstanding the recently announced determine.
ton of louis Napoleon that Tuscany shall consti.
tute separate government.
In Austria, the Council Of the Empire is to be
enlarged by the appointment Of thrtyseyen Ordinary
Councillors apportioned to the various parts of the
Empire on the basis of population; they are TO- be
selected from lists offered by the provincial diets,
and to hold Office for six years; persons of eminent
ability are alse to be- chosen by the Crown without
sach presentation, as Extraordinary Councillors
ard the body thus constituted is to pass upon the
budget, upon laws relating to financial matters, and
upon other questions submitted to it by the En-
peror In the present condition of Austria, this il
apparently nothing but tub thrown to the whale.
"A list OF the passengers of the lfated Hunga
rian has been received by the Fulton, and will be
found on another page.

staten ISLAND FERRIES.

We publish in another column synopsis of an
act in relation to the Ferries to Staten Island now
before the Legislature The loud complaint of the
present neciency Of the ferries to the Island and
of The entire disregard Of the public convenience
BY the pre- sent lessee imperatiyey calls for legse
ton of some sort. This bill provides for safe and
efficient boats, instead of those now in use, which
are VIGOROUSLY unsafe secures good landings at tie
Battery, from which the city may derive reveaue,
nftead of ssbm ting to the present usurpatlon Of
one of them by George Law; gives convenient and
certain stopping places on the Island, where, at
present, the caprice Of the captains seems to be
the rule; and subjects the lessee to the legal con-
trol of Board of officials which, from its consti
tuition, is not likely to be subjected to any sinister
influence, instead Of leaving highway over which
thousands pass daily in the hands of an irrespOns
bic monopoly. In short the ferry, which SHIELD as a
city franchise but is without any of the advantages
belonging to that relation is, like the Brooklyn
ferries, put under the protection OF law. 1t has
been questioned whether the ferry franchise granted
in the ancient charter of the city, "all around
Manhattan Island to the opposite shore thereof, :"
can include one to an island lying six miles down
the Bay, between portion of which and the city
New Jersey imtervenes but so long as it is consid.
cred that it does, it is PROFESSIONALLY proper that
such right should be duly regulated by law, and
under tie control of responsible branch of the
CITY Government, rather than in the hands of any
individual citizen, or company, even though they
recognized in the most conscientious manner
some duty to the public ss included in the privilege
Of running steamboats,.

The Senate yesterday adopted a resolution look.
ing toward the extinction of the Indian title to
lands about Pixies Peak. This is a proper step,
and is not taken a moment too soon. Both that
country and the region of Carsons Valley ought at

Some of the knowing chaps who always discover
mean motive for every good act insist that the
Senate has pasied the bill aboShing the Franking
Privilege with the understanding that the House
will not concur and that the House has passed the
Straight Mileage bill with like eredtable precon-
ception of the course of the Senate thereon. We
prefer to believe these suggestions as unfounded as
dsbonorirg; but the right way to deal with the
matters in question is this; Let the House prompt
ly concur with the action Of the Senate regarding
the Frankiug Privilege, and let the Senate return
the compliment by passing the Straight Mileage bill

That Utah is in many respects an anomaly, euI
readers need not now be told; but the relations sab
sistiDg between the Federal Executive and the
local Mormon authorities have not been more ex-
traOrdnary than those maintained by different de-
psrtments of the Federal authority Gov. Cunning
is and has long been the best terms with the
Mormon authorities and people, while the Federal
Judiciary, Marshal and Military have been at
swords points with the MOrm,n leaders and local
authorities, accusing them Of meditated and con-
summated treason, Of repeated murders or con-
nivance at murders and Of systematically screen.
ing criminals from justice. An attempt last year OF
the Federal Judges to press the trial of offenders
with what was deemed undue rigor, led to an open
collision between the Governor and those Judges,
necesstatng an appeal to the fountain of power at
Washington. The Executive sided with the Gov
ernor against the Judges, who were rebuked for
their course by Attorney General Black in pub
lshed letter. Hereupon Judges Cradlebaugh ard
Sinclair resolved to resign their positions and to re-
spond to the Attorney General in q joint letter.
That letter, hitherto kept from the press, we are
enabled to publish herewith. 1t is dgni6ed aud
respectful in language, but the facts IL embodleS
