Connecticut.

The returns we continue to receive
from Connecticut are moro than ever
annoying to Democratic arithmeti.
clans. The majority in the State last
spring for Governor English was L.
81. The Republican gains so far as
heard from at present foot MP 1885,
or in other words constitute a Repub.
lican majority in the State Of 1885.
Those towns gave last spring a ma
jority for English Of 3,l77. The re.
naming towns reduced these figures
to the above majority of I,57l, that is
they cast a Republican majority Of
1905. Surprising them merely to hold
their own at present, the Republican
majority in the State is I,6S5+1 COG
1921. Let Democrats draw what
consolation they please form these
figures. They cannot be explained
away by any species of false calcula.
ton. Connecticut has nobly respond
ed to Vermont and Maine. She has
cast her lot with the glorious galaxy
that in November win pronounce for
the great patriot and soldier, General
Grant. Connecticut is redeemed from
rebel bondage, from Democratic mis-.
rule, and rejoices in her freedom
