NEW YORK, April 4.-The WOrlC
this morning says there was large vote
polled in Connecticut yesterday, and the
| = IA.
majority is not likely to be over one
hundred either way, and an otficia
count may have to decide it. Heavy
republican gains i'll New Haven anC
Hartford had the effect of changing tn,
result, which was anticipated from TIT
general canvass of the State. The demo
Gratis have gained ten representatives
; The vote for representatives in Con
gress in the second district is also very
close. Republicans claiming Kellogg
election by nine majority, and demo
Gratis refusing to concede it.
The World also attributes heavy re
publican gain among other circum
stances to the fact that from 10000 Il
$4,000 negroes voted for the first time
and undoubtedly cast their ballots sol
idly for Jewett, and adds that Governo
English has large majority of white
votes of the State, and we believe tn,
majority of the whole vote as it stands
The Herald says: We cannot yet de
eide how the election has gone in Con
necticut. The vote polled was so un
usually close that neither party can sa,
decisively yet who has won. The SUI
claims the election of Jewell by owe
one hundred majority, it thinks thu
Congressional delegation remains un
changed, and ascribes heavy republican
| - -
Grant, and says the Legislature is re
publican. The Tribune says: Though
returns are not complete, we write
gain of more than a thousand on tn
vote of last year nearly or quite insure
tho election of Jewell, with all his col
leagues, on the republican State ticket
We have no doubt the Legislature i
again republican in both branches.
LONDON, April, 4.-Times specia
says a great battle was commenced thi
a. III. by the nationals under command
of Bergeret, who at 10 o'clock asket
; for achievements from Paris. Their
f was much animation in the bivonacs o
the:nationals Sunday night, men sing
ing Marsesllaise and Chaut Depart. I
Versailles Times correspondent believe
, that battle, which was on large scale
5 has proved disastrous to the Commun
lists. The unexpected cannonade o
, Valerien threw the nationals into con
fusion, and it is asserted that the follow
t ing is the situation: Bergeret, with 10,
5 600 men, was completely cut off !; the
Flourens was purposely permitted t
effect junction with him, and Flouren
, and Bergeret, with $4,000 men, mus
: surrender or fight at the greatest disad
r vantage. The Times correspondent say
. there is an improbable version of tn
affair to the effect that Flourens la
reached Versailles, and it is believe
a has been betrayed. The gen darme
: treat all prisoners numerically. Th
Daily News dispatch confirms the rout
of the Insurgents, who proved grea
clustering towards, who expected ths
