The Connecticut Election.

We have no tears to shed over the re-
suit of the election in Connecticut The
Democracy in that State, instead of plant
ing themselves firmly on such doctrines
as were adopted by the Democracy of New
York in the election of last fall, and were
enunciated again by Gov. SEYMOUR in his
admirable, patriotic and statesmanlike
message to the Legislature of that State,
allowed their leaders to place them in
false position before the country, and as
consequence they have been signally de-
feated. It will be well for political lead
ers in other States to profit by the result
in Connecticut, and not attempt to trans
form brave and patriotic party into a
cowardly suppIicant for 'peace at any
price with the rebels.

State and National Bank acts are removed,
it is proposed to increase the capital to

81 Matters 1t )vicksburg.


|, We can find little that is cheering in
the present situation of affairs in the vicin-
ity Of vicksburg. Three months have
elapsed since the repule of the army under
Gen. SHERMAN and, the most Of that
time has been expended in grand schemes,
looking well enough in theory, but none
of which, unfortunately, have been lead
ing to the desired result. We have
heard great deal about canals, and cut-offfs,
and passes, but they appear to have been
abandoned. Ifall this is true, then the army
is no nearer the close of the siege than
when the investment was first attempted !;
unless, indeed, the maintenance of the
rebel garrison depends upon the Red River
communications, which are now cut off by
the presence between Vicksburg and Port
Hudson of the Hartford, Albatross and
Switzerland. .....,. ..- ~. ...- .... ......
It now seems probable that, putting
aside all schemes for turning the rebel po-
sition, the assault on Vicksburg will have
to be made by approaches in front. It
will not be denied that this is formidable
undertaking; but if the same amount of
labor had been spent in making parallels
and in other enterprises of military engi
neering that has been wasted in exploring
passes, bayous, &c, the work by this time
would doubtless have either been accom-
plished absolutely, or put far in the direc-
ton of complete success. .... .

American Bread Trampled In the
Mud.

A letter from London to the Philadel-
phia Inquirer alludes to facts which the
English newspapers charitably suppressed,
as follows ....
am sorry to see that very unpleas-
ant demonstration was made at Manches-
ter, last Tuesday, concerning which it is
well that you should have full particulars.
1t appears that meeting of the opera
tives in Manchester had been called for
that day, and it was announced that Rev.
@. W. Dennison, Chaplain of the George
Griswold, would be present. This was all
very well, and the Manchester operatives
would gladly have listened to an address
from that gentleman. But the managers
of the meeting, very i'll advisedly, also an
nounced that on the occasion fifteen thou
sand loves of bread would be distributed,
composed of the flour brought by the
George Griswold, and representing the
number of barrels of The staff Of life that
composed her cargo. This is purely En-
glish way of doing things. In the very
disbursement of charity there must be a
"fuss " about it. They overlooked the
ldCG Cu1U Willy UllC AIuCllCdu COIlll lDutlOl,
when presented to them in the proper
manner, there were still men and women
enough to resent the idea of being parad-
ed like SO many paupers, and sent home
each with loaf Of bread under his arm.
The managers may have meant well
enough, but were sadly mistaken in their
policy. Possibly, however, if let alone,
the operatives would have submitted to
this public system Of charity, but it was
too good an opportunity for the Liverpool
secessionists to lose. Taking advantage
of the circumstances, their emissaries were
sent down among the Manchester masses,
and the result was that when the hour for
meeting arrived, instead of an anxious and
grateful assemblage of men and women,
there was only an excited and almost in
furiated mob.
l may spare you the details, but the end
was that fifteen thousand loaves of bread,
each weighing two pounds, (thus repre-
senting some one hundred and fifty barrels
OF t1our) were taken from the pans and
thrown into the mud, where it was tram
pied under foot. The mob pelted each
other with the convenient missiles, and a
scene of excitement and confusion ensued,
better imagined that described. Ofcourse,
the meeting, as such, was broken up, and
the day terminated in this disgraceful row.
These appear to be the facts, for which !
have no comment.

The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Traveller says he has excellent
reasons for believing that the Secretary of
the Treasury begins to be somewhat
anxious respecting the violent fluctuations
in the markets of the country He can
not fail to see ruin to all the best interests
of the country if these fluctuations con-
tinue. The business of the great cities
will come to a stand-stll pretty soon
prices of all articles are to fuctuate so
rapidly and disastrously. These prices are
unnatural and ruinous. Undoubtedly they
result partly from the fact that the Secre-
tary of the Treasury has so much power
over the finances of the country. So
much is left to the will of the Secretary,
instead of being fixed by law, that the
public is in constant fear of some new
measure-some change in the financial
policy of the Secretary. Mr.. CHASE is
aware OF this, and he is anxious to give
assurance to the public, that there really
need be no fear OF any attempt on his part
to set the commercial centres into needless

when WIFI our Armies Iaaoyes

There is an earnest longing in every
patriotic heart, that the Army of the Po-
tomac should strike blow on Lees army,
which will prove Hooker to be worthy
of his great place. Weary months have
passed away, and the Army of the Po-
tomac remains in the same camps, al
though for weeks past kilograms have
almost daily stated the army of General
Hooker was in admirable condtion-in
fact more effective than at any time
while Mcclellan had the command High
expectations are formed of Rockers ag-
gressive abilities as commanding Gener-
al. He was considered sure to do some
thing well and memorable before he had
the command for thirty days; but three
times thirty have elapsed, and there is
nothing yet to mark that he has moved one
step forword since he had the command of
the army. But small expectations are
formed that the Army of the Potomac
will accomplish much.-MIwouaee IVjs-

The Milwaukee Ne,rs of Friday says:
'Just before the adjournment of the Leg
islature, bill was passed which'is likely to
inspire new effort in behalf of our rail-
road interests. We refer to the bill char
tering the Milwaukee, Fond du Lac, Win
nebago and St. Paul Railroad Company.
According to the bill, the road after leav-
ing Milwaukee will pass through West
Bend to Fond du Lac, thence to Oshkosh,
thence in north-westerly direction prob
ably through Stevens Point to st. Croix
county, terminating on the Mississippi
river, opposite ST. Paul. A majority Of
the corporators reside in Milwaukee, and
are among the most prominent and wealthy
of our capitalists. Associated with them
are active business men residing at Fond
du Lac, Oshkosh, and other points along
the proposed line. The charter is ample
in its provisions to ensure to the company
all the franchises which could reasonably
be claimed We need not add that the
project meets with the favor of Fond du
Lac, Oshkosh, and of the people of the
several counties along the whole line, and
that an effort to construct the road will
combine quite as much influence as any
other railroad enterprise which has ever
been projected in this State.

GOvcrnEsie Revenues.

The income of tie Government from
duties, taxation and sale of bonds is now
fully up to the working current expenses.
The average income for the last two weeks
is $2,155,OO per day from all sources
mentioned. The internal revenue already
foots up $22,000,O00, and the income tax
is not reached. Railroad corporations
have not yet made payment of their taxes
to any considerable amount
The Government averages $500, 900 in
come in gold per day from duties on the
Atlantic coast. California pays three mill
lions in gold annually in foreign duties,
and nearly one-half of the internal revenue
from that State is paid in gold.

Discomfort In Texas.

A member of the Forty-second Massa-
chuseits Regiment, who was among those
captured at Galveston, writes that the peo-
pie of Texas are not only heartily tired of
the war, but full of discomfort at the suffer-
ings they experience. He says:
"There is time coming when persecu-
tons of the poorer classes will not be borne
any longer. have heard them murmur
and seen the sharp lightning glisten in their
eyes while they muttered in threatening
tones that they did not know why they
were dragged forth, half-clothed, to 90 and
fight, for what they know not-their fami-
lies left with nothing to depend upon.
Even the well-to-do can get nothing but
corn-meal and few potatoes
The writer adds that the rebel regiments
which escorted them into Galveston after
the surrender, were the most miserable
looking things for soldiers that could be
conceived of. No two were dressed alike,
and they wore old slouched hats and rags
of all conceivable colors Four negroes
who were captured in the Harriet Lane,
were sold into slavery
A letter from the blockading fleet off
Galveston says:
"Refugees from Sabine Pass say that
they know within radius of sixty miles
over one thousand men who have banded
together for the purpose of resisting the
rebel conscript law. They are wandering
about in the swamps, and if they could
have Federal protection, arms, ammuni-
ton and provisions, they would form a
Union regiment

Protection Of Frontier Settlements,
AN INTERESTING CORRESPON-
DENCE BETWEEN JUDGE NEE
= KER AND GENERAL SHELLEY.

70 ST. ANTHONY, Mimi, April 1, 1868.
GENERAL SIBLEY: ~ ~,
r. DEAR SIR:-There are many. refugee
families in this city and Minneapolis and in
or near all the river towns north of this,
who seem by their anxious inquiries to
he in total ignorance of the degree of Sc
curity and protection they would have
were they to return to their homes and
farms on the frontier These unfortunate
people deserve the amplest protection at
the hands of the Government, and an as
surance from some responsible source that
they can return with impunity, would be
most gratifying to them and those who
sympathise with them in their misfortunes
l have also received several letters from
friends at distance enquiring whether
it would be safe 'to visit Minnesota the
approaching season." Now, Sir, it does
seem to me these queries, SO natural to
those driven from their homes by the late
terrible massacre, and to those at a dis
lance who are DESTROYS of visiting us,
or seeking new homes in this land of
promise, should be answered at the earli-
est possible day, and no ones assurance,
it is believed, would be more implicitly or
confidently received than the Command
er's of the District of Minnesota, so well
known and SO cordially esteemed through
out our young State. ...
Very truly Yours,
B. B. MEEKER.
