The Corrected Result.

In addition to blowing their trumpets, exhibiting their roosters, and spreading their eagles, our Democratic friends have seen fit to attribute certain results to the people of Connecticut, which the returns show to have been really due to the voters of the Third and Fifth Wards of the city of New Haven. We submit u few of these statements, corrected so as to accord with the facts:-
 The[Third and Fifth Wards of New Havenl have once more declared themselves in favor of gov ernment under the Constitution, such as our fore fathers established. These gallant little [Wards1 illegal and revolutionary legislation for their outrageous attempt to depose the Nations Chief Magistrate. guilty of crime except that of de- lending the Constitution against the assaults of It's enemies. The people therein resident1 are in favor of an immediate restoration of the Union, and what Is more, they demand that it shall be done now, and without negro supremacy, and ne- gro suffrage at the point of the bayonet.-Ne,. l H0rea Register.
 1 The Conservative voters of 1.-the Third and Fifth l Wards of New Haven1 achieved 8 triumph on Mon day that has gladdened the hearts of all true friends of the Constitution throughout the coun. l try. It is one of the mos. important and decisive victories ever won in this Union. Never did the wires speed more glorious news from State to State, than was sent from Connecticut last Mon day night. These Wards, true to the Union steadfast in their adherence to the Constitution unswerving in their opposition to military despo tism, negro suffrage, the usurpations of Congress AND FIFTH WARDS OF NEW HAVEN have again re corded their verdict. It is for the Constitution and the Right.-Ha1tfofd Times.
 In view of these facts, the grand mora deductions of the Hartford Times are very rich:-

The Bondholder-Th Parable of the
Pounds.

The following is translation of an
article which recently appeared in
the Chicago Union, couched in scrip
tural language, and affording an apt
illustration of the position of the
bondhOlders to the people.
"And he taught the people and
spale unto them parable: :"
In the paradise of the bondholder
it Is as with the man who borrowed
from a friend $4,000 in gold.
But when the war came. and the
chief council at Washington declared
that debt sho'd be paid in greenbacks,
he went one day and bought with his
$40, 900 in gold $25, 900 in greenbacks.
And he took therefrom $4,000, and
went to his friend and said, Here,
my friend, take what owe thee"
| But the other said, 81 loaned thee
gold, and thou should'st repay me in
gold"
"Unbeliever," cried the other,
''read this; This note is legal ten
der for all debts, private and public,
etc. 1, as a loyal man, show myself
willing and Obedient to the command
of the chief council. Thou wilt re-
sist the laws of the land. Thou art
a copperhead and traitor. Here,
take that which is thine own, and 90

And, as the loyal man would not

of $500 in gold, or 50, 500 in the money
of the land, about 10 per cent. "AnC
he clad himself in purple raiments.'
And when he wished to iacreast
his talents, he deposited his bonds il
Washington; and it came to pas
that he received permission 10 tax,
from the people many thousands o
dollars more every year, becaus
license was given him to issue ma
tional bank notes at usury.
"FOr 1 say unto you, that unit

and from him that hath not, eye
that which he hath shall be takel
away from him."
Then spoke the chief council:
"This loyal fellow shall be free froI

vention at Chicago, "Laborers an

Facts are Stubborn Things.

The White hill New York; Times
puts these facts before the people:
The national debt can never be paid
under Radical rule. t

up standing army OF $4,000.
Because it costs too much to support
the horde of offices Radicals have ere

troyed our commerce, we have no

Because millions upon millions are

enterprises prove only to be swindIes.
Because millions upon millions are
actually stolen yearly from the ma
tional treasury with as much deliber.
alton as any burglar or thief ever ex-
ercised his vocation.
Because the present tariff is grind.
ing the face of the poor and decreasing
their ability to pay taxes.

The Ninth District.


Som6 two weeks ago the regular

Republican BLESSINGS.

The Republican party has been in
power eight years, and not one bless
ing has followed its administration.
1t came inpower promising to abolish
all the evils in the country. 1t aboI-
ished no evils, but inaugurated and
sustained a thousand bitter curses, 1t
was the Republican party that saw
fit to override a law and a constitu-
tIonal guarantee simply because it did
not please people of New England
andIother parts of the North.
1t promised to guard the press to
uphold the freedom of speech to
abolish an aristocracy conflicting with
the interests of labor in the North to
lessen the expenses of Government {;
to better protect industry. The Re-
publican party promised well, but its
history, infamies, corruptions, ,extraY-
agencies, misruleS, usurpatiOns, ven
| ialitieS, murderings, tyrannieS, and
disregard of promises made, of rights
of States and people, give the lie to
