The Connecticut and Rhode Island
Elections.

How Uniorism swept everything on
Monday last 7 We have yet to hear Of a
single Copperhead victory in the elections.
The news from Richmond came Just in
time TO animate Unionists at the polls.
In Conneclicu. the Union party has elect
ed its State ticket by majority of ove,
ten Moasdnd--which is larger than has
ever been given in that State for any par
ty,in any election. The entire Congress-.
ional delegation is Unon-a gain of one.
The State Senate is unanimously Union
the House of Representatives overwheIm-
ingly so. The Chicago Democracy met
with Waterloo defeat.
In Rhode Island, at the annual election
which tnok place on Wednesday last,
Unionism again swept everything. The
Union nominee for Governor was elected
almost without opposition; both the Union
candidates for Congress had sweeping
majorisies; and SO it ran, through the
whole ticket. " .. - b.. =
Copperheadism, as we'll as rebellion, W as
laid out cold by the capture of Richmond.
The latter-day Democracy will never
again attain power in the United States.

Our Washington Correspondence.
WASHINGTON. ApriI 9Th. 1856

WASHINGTON, April 8th 1865.
Never perhaps since Washington was q
city did it put on such a jubilnnt appear.
ance as upon the receipt of tho news that
Richmond bad fallen. That city, which had
been the objective point of our armies for
more than four years, calling itself q capi.
tai of Contederacy, and assuming to be
the rival Of tho legitimate capital of tho
country; that town, the head of the Ro-
beliion, to gain which we had offered up so
many precious livos, aud which, when pos.
sessed by us, was, to us, the downfall of the
great conspiracy against liberty, and, to the
South, tho loss OF Slavery; the place before
which tho indomitabIe Grant had, months
ago, set down his grand army, there TO re.
main until the forces that defended it
should be compelled to give it up! Was it
any wonder that the fruiton of all loyal
hopes should bring with il unusual rejoic-
ing? ..r. 5 ,l....F ..... ..
On Tuesday night, tho streets were a
blaze OF light. Shops, stores, tboators. pri-
vato housos of the loyal, put on glad bril-
fancy; the public buildings seemed all
afiame; banners innumera6le foated from
tho house tops and flagstaffs; the pillars of
the War Department were wound about
with the National colors. 1t was matter of
Stripes great and small, came from. They
were, doubtless, all ont, none wishing to be
bid on that occasion. Numerous bands
played patriotic airs. and, to largo crowds
in different parts of the city. short speeches
wero made by distinguished speakers. Tho
night was beautiful, the moon shone out
with unwonted splendor, and nature ap.
peared to rejoice with man at tho coming
of that day when. in every part Of tho uu-
divided Unitod Stutos, liberty shall be 60.
curod by law to every human being.
The President is still with the Army of
the Potomac. and will not return until next
week. Mr.. Seward, who was severely in-
jured on Thursday last, by jumping from
his carriage whilo the horses were running
away his arm being broken above tho elbow,
and his face being severely bruised by the
fall, is doing we'll, and no apprehensions arc
felt, from his present symptoms, that seri-
ous results will follow. .',.. '.., It..r
Tho wounded from the late battles in
front OF Richmond are being brought in -
Every preparation had been innde at the
hospitals tor them, and they are receiving
all tho attention that surgical skill and care
can give them. Desorters and refugees are
also arriving daily in largo numbers, and,
after taking tho oath .aro sent North. None
of tho prisoners. except the Rebel officers,
arc brought hero. Many of the lntter are
finding gparters at tho "Old Capitol, b..
Spring is putting on her new garments -
Tho peach and cherry treos are in blossom
The grass is green, tho apple trees show
respectable leaf and the forest troes are
presenting thoir green complexion to the
oye. With these signs of promise. may we
not trust there will also soon come porma.
nent and jnst peace to our country?

lantern, and he prosecuted the work in the
dark, on his hands and knees. 1t was while
thus engaged, that he was stabbed.
