Connecticut To-day.

Connecticut holds the las of its April
elections to-day. Hereafter 1t will vote in
November. IL now elects a Governor and
other state officers, "A legislature, and n
member of Congress. The present Gov
cruor, INGERsoLG. Democrat. Is "a clndi-
date for reelection. Ills Republican oppo-
ncnt Is ROBINSON. Temperance aud Green
back candidates for Governor are also
running. The Democrats are very conf
mt of elect'ng INGERsoIL by a clelr ma
krity over the combined vote OF hi. three
competitors. The Republicans seem to
have faint hope of defeating an election
by the people; and they are making dcs-
pefate exertIous TO carry the LEGISLATURE,
Tor the two-fold purpose of thereby get
ting the Governor and saving u senator IN
Congress.
The Democrats have elected their Gov
ernor for the last three years by handsome
majoritcs over the nted vote of the Re-
publican and Temperance candidates. In
1873 their ujoiity was ara, IN 1874 II was

from 5000 10 5000. IT VIII probably be
smaller to-day and we fancy the Green
back vote Will he very light.
The Legislature Will he the main prize.

caused by the death of FERRY Republican,
whose term expires in siarch. 1879. 1t is
quite possible that the Senate, by reason
of the large number OF members to be

GRANTS successor enters the White House,
that this Connecticut Senator may turn
