Connecticut's New Senator.

In appointing ex-Gov. James L. English to
the vacancy occasioned by the death of SEN
ator Ferry, Gov. Ingersoll, of Connecticut,
has undoubtedly met the wishes of majority
of the Democrats of the State, and at the
same time gratifed very strong local feeling
in New Haven county, where the Governor
and new Senator both reside. Mr. English
has had considerable experience in politics
during the past twenty years, having in that
time served in several public capacities
His first appearance in the State Legisla-
ture was in 1867 when his predecessor, the
late Senator Ferry, also served for the first
time in that body. He has been in both
House and Senate, was candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor and defeated in 1860; in 1862
was elected to Congress-, served two terms;
was three times Governor, and in 1872 was
defeated for Congress. From this it will be
seen that he enters the Senate with consider
able experience of public affairs and sufficient
acquaintance with Washington life, gained by
four years service in the popular branch of
Congress, to enable him to make himse f at
once useful to his constituents and to the
body OF which be becomes member.
The new Senator, without being a brilliant
or great man, is a gentleman of high charac-
ter, Of first-rate business capacity, good judg-
ment and honest purposes. In a Congress
which is expected to deal largely with ques-
lions OF finance. he will not be without in
fluence. He Will be found always on the side
of hard money and national honesty.
He will bring to his position the plain,
practical talent of a successful business man,
and that is needed, perhaps, as much as any
other one thing in the discussion of economic
questions to which the country must soon
address itself-Ne3C York Tribune.
