The EesisIature.

The Legislature of 1876 did one very remarkable thing and came very near doing another. It ratified the bill of sale of their honorable body executed by the Democi atic State Central Committee to Mr. Barnum; and it came near the passage of woman suffrage bill. The business before them, so far as we have been able to judge, has not been of even the usual importance. There was the annual scrim- mage over the railroad commissioners, re- port which after much debate has been accepted. We believe that Mir. Goodwin is native of Litchfeld, and we suspect that, with such team as Woodruff, Sey- mour and Graves-all against him, he IS not in the habit of blessing his birthplace overmuch.
 The House has been under the nominal lead of MT. Johnson, of Hartford, but the Courant says, with truth, that M. Graves, of this place, "has divided the honors of leadership if there have been any such during what may properly be termed a very uneventful session" That paper also speaks of Mir. Baldwin, of New Mill ford. as "one of the most clear-headed men on the floor" MT. John Cotton Smith, of Sharon, has not taken very prominent part in the ordinary business of the House, but has several times made neat and effective speeches-aboye all he is entitled to the glory of being chairman of the woman suffrage committee in the first Connecticut House that has ever passed woman suffrage bill.
 The Senate has been sleepier than usual, this year. It is too large body to talk to. and too small to speak to-just the size for bore to puncture to distrac- tion. The thing we most regret in their performances is that the slumbers of the senator from the Fifteenth should have been so far broken as to bring his name on the wrong side of the record upon wo- man suffrage.

 The New York Tribune comes out frank ly for Hayes ::
 We have cordially recognized Gov. Tilden's great services to the state and hls eminent fitness for the highest office in the land, and we rejoice that the dem ocratic party has teen driven to nominate so admirable candidate. But yoked with Mir. Hendricks and obstructed by bad platform, independents cannot take the risk of voting for him. The election of President involves the triumph of party in congress and throughout the country. and if the infationists who coWed the con vention and forced upon it a policy which majority of the delegates knew to. be false should gain possession of the House of Representives, not even the frmne>s and ability of a President Tilden could save the Union from enormous disaster. The Republican profession are weak, but they are sound as far as they go, while the character of the Republican candi- dates gives them significance which they have not when standing alone. In supporting this ticket at least we know precisely what we do.
 The Springfield Republican is doubtful between Tilden and Hayes: E
 The democrats have nominated their Bristow More and better than thai, they have nominated him, in the teeth of des- perate opposition from the constituent parts of the thing to be reformed, bec0use he is their Bristow, and from control ling sense of the attractiveness of that sort of candidate. this year, as party ill., vestment The reforming New York dem- ocrat has had many obvious advantages over the reforming Kentucky Republi- can inside his own party, as he has sever al obvious and grave disadvantages as a candidate before the people. He has sought the nomination, he is one of the most experienced politicians living. 1t will be asserted and believed by many that his success is owing quite as much to pol itics as the other thing. But, when all IS said. the fact remains that this St Louis result is reform victory within the par ty, quite as significant as the reform vic tory at Cincinnati It doesn't necessarily follow that they have organi- zed victory. Both the candidate and the party are pretty heavily handicapped in this race. Mir Hayes is a very clean man. He got his nomination in very clean way. He has the better constituency be- shind him, at the opening of the canvass. The great body of Independent and reform ing Repu blicans have accepted his candi- dature-if not with enthusiasm, at least with comfort and gratitude. If the cleo tion were to be held tomorrow, they would pretty. certainly vote for him. and elect him. There is no telling, of course, what the canvass may bring forth as ii develops. It may confirm and increase this tendency toward Hayes; it may check and reverse it. Perhaps the most likely result is division of the indepen. dent and reforming vote between the two. We cannot at present see cause for appre- hending any very disastrous consequences from the success of either.
