The Connecticut Election.

We shall be infinitely rejoieed to chroni.
Gle, on next Tuesday, that the Democrat.
have carried Connecticut and elected Eng
LIsH. We hope to do so; and would fee
perfectly confident of it. but for three con.
sidertions:
First-Many of the soundest Democrats
are luke-warm, and the proper Instrument
alities have not been resorted to, to rouse
them up. The reason is that the same folly
in that part at least, afllicts the Democracy
of Connecticut. that prevails in some other
States, namely: fear of string uD the
enemy and encountering Republican pre-
judices against obnoxious Democrats" 4"
Hence there is wanting there that COM
bined movement which is generally essen
tial to success
Second-lt is next to impossible for the
Democratic party to carry New England
state against party and policy which
enable New England to feed and fatten on
the blood, and bones, and sinews and pro-
perty of the other sections. Nor is it TO be
expected that the puritan Yankee" will
voluntarily surrender the general supre-
macy WHICH ut HAS Htlu uuTlDS Ine last
five years. IL will have, at last, TO be
torested from him.
Third-The interposition of the Presi-
dent comes too late, and is exerted too
feebly to effect much. Had he Initiated his
predecessor LINCOLN, and set STANTON at
work to carry the election for English,
through fair means and foul" every of
flce-holder would now be furiously at work.
and the railroads and highways would be
thronged with 'votes," lawful and unlaw-
ful. hurrying on to the election. JOHNSON
has lost time, but he is an earnest, deter
mined man, and will make il all up by and
bye; and 1t is also among the possibilities,
that man may be Secretary Of War be-
fore the next Ohio election, who will have
learned all of STANToN's lessons, and be
able TO turn them TO good account. 80
mote II be-"
And even now Connecticut may go DEM
ocratic; and If so, we will fling our ban
ner to the breeze, and shout till the welkin
shall ring again,

Seven regiments ofcolored Infantry wore
going through the formalties Of being mus
tered out Of the service. on the 22d inst. In
aud In the vicinity of jackson, Miss. The
oBicers--whites, ofcourse--are having CAV
time oft; equal, almost 10 cotton stealing.
Hosts of planters and their agents are eager
to hire Sambo to take up the shovel and the
hoe, and go TO work on the plantation. as
soon as he lays down the musket and knap-
sack, receives his discharge and pockets the
last dollar due him from Uncle Sam There
is quite lively competition in securing his
services. Twenty-Five and thirty dollars
per month and rations are offered.
A gentleman, describing what IL before
the eye, says "the officers Of these regiments
frequently receive twenty or thirty dollars
for every hand they secure. Some ofthem
pocket In this way, the snug little sum of
$500 or $1,000. There Is no patriotism and
less love in such transactions. This final
shave of the gullible African evinees con-
siderable Yankee shrewdness and a great
deal Of selfishness. 1t seems quite proper
to these gentlemen that the poor negro SOL
dier should give his late officer a parting
gift of twenty or thirty dollars, as a memo
rial OF respect. So many ex-soldiers have
had their ''eye teeth cut' in this manner,
that those remaining unemployed are inds-
posed to enter into any contracts where Off
GERS are at all concerned"
Bless their patriotic souls! how these
brave shoulder-straps are toiling, and
sweating, and bleeding in this "Restora-

The Legislature seems 60 be somewhat
exercised on the selection which they are
reouired to make OF the locality for this
proposed institution AT present writing,
they seem divided between Granville,
worthington. and Farmers College. near
Cincinnati. Our friends down at Miami
University. oxford, are rather given the
cold-shoulder. Why, we are In no manner
advised; but it has always seemed, to our
Judgment. as the best location of all that
have been offered.
The people of Newark and Granville so
soft-soaped and gorged with good things
the whole body, on their late visit there ;
the ladies' smiles and coquettings constitu-
ting an abundance of "sweet-meats"-th
leading members were so inflated by their
local gas--the silly ones were so enthused

that they had not before discovered to a
wondering constituency how many latent
Solons had been floating about loose in their
midst, that when they left, to return TO the
Capital, it was supposed that nIlly one-half
of them would skip all the way on their
heads, the more exhuberant following, in
''double-quick,' with the most rational
leap-frog gracefulness!
Seeing, and being no little alarmed at all
these wheedling demonstrations, the Gin
cinnati Chamber ofCommerce baited hook
and toled the whole body down to the Queen
City, to be their guests, partake of their
good cheer and pass their enlightened
Judgment ON Farmers College, as the spot
the only spot to which the aspiring youth
of the State should repair and be enlight-
ened on the great questions of developing

Here again were they bewildered, even
more so than up in Licking: for Cincinnati
spread herself" To all the noted places,
in and around the city, were they conducted
the hotels the theaters, the courts, the
Commerce Chamber, the club-rooms, the
saloons, and what-not-and admiration
grew noisy, and enthusiasm ran high. One
of the more delighted. in his admiration of
the muniicence of their reception, re-
marked of the boundless liberality of the
citizens rather reproachfully, that their
advent TO the city scarcely deserved such
n fine, eXtravagant bonfire demonstration
as the burning OF pixies Opera-House !"
One, from the rural districts" who used
to wear shoulder-straps, took down one of
the reception committee, while they were
winding through the beautiful avenues Of
that magnificent city of the dead, Spring
Grove. with a reply that it was tolerably
roomy burying field, but not as big or as
full as his O,on, which he had established
down in Dixie, and which he had piled up
with Rebs, Cops and Vallandighamers, in
the war for the African! The disparage-
ment of Spring-Grove was pardonable,
however, for 1t is often the wont of the
tiercer of our returned braves to "fght
their battles DER again"
Between these rival interests, and the
contentious of their respective partisans,
the Legislature may well be excused for
the delay in their decision. 1t is TO be |
