TUESDAY. APRIL a, 1893.
The Connecticut Election.


The copperheads are beaten in Connecticut!
The fierce battle in that state, which had been
going on with great vehemence for several
weeks, has resulted in triumph of the Union
men. The republicans have elected their
state ticket, secured an overwhelming
majority of the legislature, and gained
one member of congress; and the DEM
ocrat elected to congress is so far
from being copperhead that, in the last
congress, he voted to abolish slavery in the
District Of Columbia. The copperheads re-
nominated him because they did not dare to do
otherwise, he consenting to act with them and
keep silent in regard to the afro cious action of
their state convention. But his former very
large majority has been seriously reduced,
which is all we expected of that district.
The voting in Connecticut, with which that
at the present election may be most properly
compared, is that of 1861, when members of
the last congress were chosen. The whole
vote OF the state in 1861 was S4,Il5, and
Buckinghams majority was 20S6. At that
time the democrats carried Hartford, New
Haven, Fairfield and Middlesex counties, and
elected two of the congressmen-one in the
second district, and the other in the fourth.
The vote for congressman, at that time, was
as follows
IN THE FIRST DISTRICT.
Dwight Loomis, republican. .........l 0, 70l
A. 2. Hyde, democrat. .............1O,5 63
Majority for Loomis, 1873.
SECOND DISTRICT.
John Woodruff, republican. ......... II 1896
James E. English, democrat. ........1 L, 400
Majority for English, 1894.
THIRD DISTRICT.
A. A. Durham, republican. .S70l
IL. l.. Baker, democrat. ...............64 96
Majority for Burnham, 2205.
FOURTH DISTRICT.
.. S. Terry, republican. ...........1 II SOS
u. T.. Woodruff, democrat. ...........1 IL ,739
Majority for Woodruff, II.
This year the republican candidate is elect
ed in the first district by an increased MAORI
ty The dispatch from Hartford makes Mr..
Brandagees majority in the third district
about fifteen hundreds but a dispatch from
that district makes his majority larger than
that given for Durham. His opponent, Mr..
Converse is not copperhead; and it was
said that he would get more votes than would
have been given for any other democrat
in the district. 1t is quite likely that
his vote has run ahead of that for Seymour
The majorties in the second and fourth dis
districts are not reported but dispatch from
New Haven states that the republican vote
had gained considerably in that section of the
state, which OF course decreases the majorities
for the candidates of the copperheads. In
1861 the vote in the several counties was as
follows -

THE FATE OF CHARLESTON. We believe
Charleston is destined soon to fall. An intel
ligent man, mate of one of the transports en-
ployed by admiral Dupont, and who has re-
Gently arrived in our city, states that the prep
arations were being rapidly made, when he
left, for the attack. From him we gather, that
the determination is to proceed slowly, but
surely, avoiding loss of life, though at the
expense of delay. Heavy siege guns are be-
ing taken up the river by the transports, pro-
tected by the Monitors, and the doomed city
is to be taken by regular approaches. 1t may
be that the 18th of April, to which Gen. But
Ter alludes in his Speech may be marked by
