Connecticut Election.

This State voted on Monday last, aud
like New Hampshire, went for the Rad
icals. Liberal Republicanism don't
seem to help Democracy "wuth cent"
The Connecticut Democrats, or rather,
those of them who manipulate Conven.
tons, adopted platform precisely sim.
liar to that Of the Missouri Liberal"
Republicans, aud the election dispatch.
es, on Tuesday, informed us that the
Democrats we're "apathetic" This is
exactly what we have all along said
would be the result of this insane chase
after Republican platforms aud Repub.
lican candidates. Scheming managers
may think they have a fine thing
of it, by so doing; but when they come
to submit this policy to the test of the
ballot box, they discover that it will not
work, that the masses are "apathetic."
Will the lesson taught by the Connec-
ticut election be needed, or will it be
thrown away upon those purblind presses
aad politicians who seem bent on lead
ing the Democratic party to certain
destruction? Let them go on with the
attempt to Rcpublicanise the Democratic
party, aud they will discover, perhaps
when it is too late, how perfectly futile
such a policy is.
The New York World, commenting
on the election, says Everybody will
now coneede that the Democratic can.

calculation. 1t was shaped with refer
ence to the Liberal Republican vote,
and the event shows that it leaned upon

Scene Shifting.

The political kaleidoscope is changing
continually. To day it presents one
aspect; tomorrow another. But re.
Gently it was announced that the Gin.
cinnati Convention was called by Re.
publicans, for Republicans ouly, and
that no Democrat would be expected to
show his face there. Now, it is an.
nounced that another Convention, COM
posed Of Democrats and Republicans,
and men Of all shades of opinion, is to
be held at the same time and place,
called tho "Reunion aud Reform Or.
ganizaiion," and circular, issued by
this latter organization, announces that
Committee Of Arrangements, with
authority to act for both Conventions,
has been appointed. What this all
means, does not yet fully appear, but
we suppose the purpose will unfold it.
self as the first of May draws nigh. The
Baltimore Gazette thinks that this
''Reunion and Reform Organization, /"
as it is called, is mere local associa-
ton, and evidently under sinister in.
huences. A ''wcak invention" Of the
Radicals.

Spring Trade and the Small Pox.

Country merchants are going to the
cities for their Spring supplies, and it
is amusing to note the representations
in the papers of the prevalence of this
disease in other cities. For instance,
New York journals represent that the
disease is very prevalent and on the
Increase in Philadelphia and Baltimore.
Philadelphia journals state that it is
abatiug there, but spreading in New
York aud Baltimore. And Baltimore
journals, not to be outdone in this way,
publish similar statements in reference
to Philadelphia and New York. St.
Louis merchants have issued circular
stating that Chicago is so oyerrun with
this disease that the Mayor of that city
has prohibited any intercourse with
other places.

adjournment Of the Legislature.

The session Of the General Assembly
of Maryland closed with the closing
hours Of Monday night last. 1t had
been, from the beginning, busy one,
aud although there we're some bills that
ought to have passed which did not,
there was, nevertheless, much work
done. Many bills of Importance were
passed, and quito number of others
rejected in spite Of the strong pressure
and the great political influence brought
to bear upon their passage. The feel.
ing of both Houses of the Assembly
was, on the whole, conservative.
One of the closing incidents of the
Senate was the resignation of Hon.
Barnes Compton, Senator from Charles,
who, it will be remembered, was ap.
pointed one Of the State tobacco inspec.
tors, in February last.

Great Loss Of Cattle in Texas.

Both the late cold weather aud the
drought have occaSioned an immense loss
OF cattle in many portions Of Texas In
deed. the stock interest has not received
for many years such severe blow
According to the Texas papers il is cstima,
ted that 200. 900 head Of cattle have died
during the past few weeks 10 Western
Texas The loss has been fearful between
the Guadalupe and Nueces rivers. In
Goliad alone 5000 animals have been
skinned, and about an equal number in
San Patricio and Karnes counties.
The San Antonio Herald says that in
space OF one mile opposite Helene, 1000
or more animals have been skinned
Within a space Of three miles, near Ken.
nedy's Ferry, on the Nueces, 5000 more
have died, and many Of thu carcasses have
been stripped Of the hides
At last accounts the cattle were dying in
Texas at fearful rate, from starvation
After the COLI weather, came terrible
drought. aud there was literally no grass
Tor them TO subsist upon. SO the loss Of
stock in the counties above mentioned, ia
Victoria, DE Witt, Gonzales and otne
nelghboring portions, this winter and spring,
may be estimated at about one half. We
rejoice to learn that abundant rains have
recently fallen over all the Stale.-Nep

Political Items.

A New York letter to the Phlladei'
phia Ledger, says!
The result Of the Conneuticui election
would seem to be geusrailng eoldne's
between the Democracy and the liberal
Republicans, which promises TO be nol
without an influence ut the CincInnail
Convention. The former are disposed
to charge the latter with a lack OF sin
cerity at the same time their conviction
is strengthened that, after all, their
wisest policy is active aud not passive
in other wurds, that it is best to run
clean Democratic ticket for the Presi
dency, without any eutangllng alliances
whatsoever.
Hon. Van Trump, member OF the
Democratic Congressional Committee
from Ohio, has written n long and able
letter, 10 which he warns his Democratic
brethren against the passive policy, aud
declares that no matter how large, en.
thusiastic or respectable the Cincinnati
Convention may be, it will represent no
comfortable element Of strength. He
declares that Democratic National
Convention will be held and q straight
out Democratic candidate nominated,
aud that the coalition movement is los
ing strength daily.

II will afford us much qualification if
our neighbor proves to be astute and

objection to do so, even through the
agency Of the Cincinnati Convention,

Terrible Earthquake.

The earthquake Of Tuesday week in Cali
forLIa was much more severe than at frs,
reported. The centre Of the shocks was in
lnyo county, and here the town Of Lone
Pine was totally destroyed, and Cerro Gordo
badly damaged. A number Of persons were
killed at Lone Pine, but only one man was
killed Mt Cero Gordo. The first shock at
Lone Pine was followed quickly by three
others, "and the earth was in q constant
tremblo for three hours" A chasm as
miles in length and from inches to 40 feet
IN width was opened in the valley. Al
Swansea, Col. lregellos was killed. The
shocks still continue in the diststrict, though
with lesseued violence. At Visalia, several
were felt on Saturday night, coming from
the southeast. 1t is rumored that volcano
has been seen in active operation from the
summit Of Greenhood Mountain, 60 miles
south Of Visalia. The Indians are leayin q
the district, as they fear recurrence OF the
general convulsion, which, according to
their traditions, converted a range of
mountains into the Owens river valley
several centuries ago. The latest advices
state that Big Ovens Lake has risen four
feet since the earthquake. At Tibbett's
Ranch, forty acres Of ground sunk seven
feet below the surrounding country. 'Kern's
and Ovens rivers were turned backward.
and relieved with increased violence. The
total number Of killed in lnyo county is
stated at 30, and Of wounded at loo.

Sound Doctrine.

If the Cincinnati Convention should
make its platform as liberal as that put
forth by an association of New York
Republicans, with Mr.. Greeley at it's
head, ''fusiou," if il should be accom-.
plished, would involve no sacrifice of
principle on the part of Democrats
They say;
1--WE believe that the time has come
when the political offences of the past
should be pardoned; that all citizens
should be protected in the enjoyment of
the rights guaranteed to them by the
Constitution; that Federal taxation
should be imposed for revenue, and so
adjusted as to make the burden upon
the industry Of the country as light as
possible; that reform in the civil ser.
vice should be made which will relieve
political action from the influence OF
official patronage; that che right of local
selfgovernment, the foundation Of
American freedom, should be reasserted,
and the entertainments Of Federal power
checked; and We also believe that at this
time cpecial duty rests upon the peo-
pie to do away With corruption in Office"
This is Democratic doctrine, as far as
il goes tariff for revenue; civil ser.
vice reform; amnesty; local self govern
ment; aad opposition to the encroach-
meuts of Federal power, and corruption
