Tho Connecticut Election.

The singular results OF the Connecticut elec-
tion have thrown the astonished politicians on
both sides into quandary. The democrats
think they have something unprece dentedly
glorious to rejoice over, but when they come
to look into it they "can't see it." Greeley at
first is stupefed by the concussion but on re-
covering little he thinks bis party will do
better the next time. Raymond, Of the Tines
as usual, is bothered. He does not know ex-
actly on which side of the fence he ought to
jump down, and so he is still waiting for some-
thing more definite to turn up. But the most
amusing gymnastics are those of the organ of
the Manhattan Club--most amusing because
they are the most ridiculous Democratic prin-
ciples, forsooth, when English fought his bat
tie on the republican war platform, keeping
the Seymous, Eatons and Touceys well in the
background. Doolittle did little, and Frank
Blair and all the other democratic imported
stumpers, and the republican outsiders. too,
we're all Doolittles in this peculiar contest.
The World, which in mean and sneaking
way during the canvass bolstered up the
Snowman Barnum to retain the showman's ad-
vertisements, shows only a sneaking sort Of
moral courage in rejoicing over his defeat

TO NEWSPAPER READERS and ADVERTISERS


/, The probable reconstruction of the South, under
The bill passed by Congress, seems to give an
impetus to business all over the country.
| We feel the influence of it in connection with
our journal, its circulation and advertising having
increased to point which they have never before
reached. As matters look we shall be compelled,
instead of q triple, to publish quadruple sheet
daily. A probable average of from forty to ifty
columns of advertisements will require that ex-
tension Of space in order to prevent its inter-
fering with the news.
/ Our advice to business men who feel Respondent
is to cheer up and advertise. The South will be
back soon business will be lively, and all that will
be required viii be for them to keep up their
courage and to send us their advertisements in
time to be classified is, before haf-past

Tho Diplomatic Quarrel In Chile and Peru.
1t appears that the silly misunderstanding
between Captain Stanley, Of the United States
ship Tuscarora, and Admiral Tucker, of the
allied navy of Peru and Chile, which caused
our government to order that the flag Of Peru
should not be saluted by American war vessels,
has led to some diplomatic complications which
are likely to be very annoying and possibly
protracted, and may interfere with the practical
operations Of the peace conference proposed
by the government at Washington. We have
before stated the facts in this case, which COM
menced with supposed insult offered to Cap
tain Stanley on board an English steamer by
Admiral Tucker, who was not then in command
of the allied squadron, nor was he in uniform,
and hence the insult, whatever it was, can
hardly be considered an official act, but an
affair purely personal between an ex-rebel
officer and an officer of our navy. We under
stand that it is regarded in this light by our
Minister to Chile, and that he is anxious that
our government should revoke its order. The
Minister of foreign affairs for the Chilean gov
ernment and the Peruvian Minister at Valpa-
raiso, it is understood, consider the slight of
some moment, and, having made common cause
of it refuse to resume the usual international
courtesies with our vessels until the order not
to salute the Peruvian flag is rescinded. When
all the facts in the case are fully understood
by the State Department we presume that the
affair will be settled without further trouble.
We trust that General Fitzpatrick will make
such explanations as will enable Mr.. Seward to
comprehend the whole Of this unfortunate dis
pute, which occurs at a most inopportune time

Five or six Of the st. Patrick's day rioters
have already been tracked out by the police
and arrested, including one Of the marshals Of
the Brooklyn society, which created the disturb
ance. They have all been admitted to bail,
and we think IL exceedingly probable that the
affair will be allowed to end there; for we
doubt very much whether they will be indicted
or tried, or if they are that the judiciary will
impose apy penalty upon the rioteIs We zee

opening OF the Paris Exposittou.
The cable account which we gave yesterday
OF the opening ceremonies Of the Paris Exhi-
bition was sufficiently full to enable our read
ers to form an idea Of its character and pros
poets. This is certainly not favorable. Its
imperfect state Of preparation, its dusty and
choked up avenues and general air Of discom-
fort and confusion are not what people were
led to expect from the boasted French talent
for organization. It would have been better
to have delayed the opening awhile than to
have made such show as this. What is the
use of despotic institutions if they cannot in
sure something a little less democratic and
disorderlys
1t is impossible to come to any other con-
clusion on reading this account than that the
Exhibition must prove failure With the ex-
ception of the London one everything Of the
kind that has been attempted-0ur own not
excepted-has been so. The present Exhibition
may serve to feed the vanity of the French
and to put money in the pockets of the Paris
nsarchands; but it will disappoint tie rest of
the world. So far as Americans are con-
cerned they will derive neither industrial nor
commercial benefits from it. They will simply
have an opportunity of seeing the elephant at
the largest possible figure. The Paris people
are experienced hands in taking care of
strangers. The foreigners who have gone
there for the Exhibition have already evidence
of their hospitable disposition IN the raising
of the hotel and restaurant prices fifty per
cent beyond their usual rates.
AS an enterprise protesting to have inter
national interests in view it is evident, there
There is wanting on the part of the hosts the
spirit required to render it so. Before it il
fairly inaugurated the foreign contributors
will all be disguised with it. Between disap
pOintment with the internal arrange
ments and annoyance at the extortiont
praetised on them they will soon wish them
selves home again. But they are unreasonable
in this They had fair warning that the thing
was not got up for their benefit They were in
vited there for political, and not for an indus
trial object This was simply to assist the
Emperor in bridging over by . so-called Indus
trial Congress the domestic and diplomatic EN-
barrassments in which he finds himself in
volved.
Will the Exhibition accomplish that end
We doubt it. We question whether it will
even be suffered to run it's course uninter
rupted. There are war clouds gathering in the
continental atmosphere. Between the strong
anti-French feeling which is manifesting itsel
in Germany and the unmistakable shaping o.
events by Russia for the seizure of Constanti
nople 1t is not improbable that before the
summer is half over the French people will
have something more serious than the Exhibi-
ton to think Of, and that Paris will be emptied
Of lite foreign visitors earlier than either calcu
late upon.

VIII Chief Justice Chase DO IIis Duty and
Avoid Impeachmepts

There appear to be some indications that
Chief Justice Chase has taken the question Of
impeachment in his own case into serious con-
sideration. 1t is now intimated that he may
appoint the officers under the new Bankrupt
law which the act enjoins upon him, though
he endeavored to avoid that duty. II Is also
said that there is q prospect Of JEFF Davis
being tried. Now, we hope that is the case,
and that there will be no unnecessary delay,
either IN nominating the Registers In bank
ruptcy or in trying Davis. Should Mr.. Chase
fail to do his duty by putting Of the trial of
Davis and postponing the nomination OF Regis
ters till the meeting Of Congress in December
approaches we shall feel il our duty 10 urge
his impeachment; for then he would be clearly
guilty Of an impesclablc ofsa:a
