The Election in connectIcut.


 The result of last weeks election in this State could not but be highly satisfactory to Republicans. Their plurality on sher- ifs vote is small-less than six handred but that shows degree of satisfaction with the Administration, and degree of activity in party that has been consider ed on it's last legs, that encourages Con- neeticut Republicans immensely. Still this result of an of year must not be talk en as any proof that Connecticut is Re- publican ona full popular vote. It only shows that little effort was made, and lit tie money used on the Democratic side at last weeks election.
 People and papers talk ofathis election as a severe blow to MT. Wm. H. Barnum.. We do not so view it. It clears away a crowd ofDemocratic rivals from his path in the race for the senatorship in 1878 Mir. Barnum can now say to the leaders of his party. ".It is Very well to sheer at my money, and my way of carrying elections It is pretty evident that my policy is the only one that can succeed in 1878. Shall I carry the state for the Democracy and take the Senatorship, or will you let it go by default to the Republicans?' Previous experience teaches us how this line of ar gument will strike Democratic State Committee. Will'the party at large suf- fer the Senatorship to be disposed of in that way?
 Of the Senatorial elections, the most re- markedly feature is the success of Mir. Miles in the Seventeenth District. Of late years that District has given the De- mocracy an average majority of about 300. It is pretty evident that little if any of Mir. Barnum's money was in circulation there this time.a Mir. J. Fl. Wadhans, one of the shrewdest democrats in Go. shen or anywhere else. remarked. election night, that "a poor clerk in store, can't beat three quarters of million dollars, in the Seventeenth Senatorial District r
 The House is not quite so strongly Re- publican, this year, as last. Among the prominent Republicans we notice the names of Gen. Harland, Judge Briscoe, P. T. Barnum, Judge Brewster, c. B. An drews and Leman w. Cutler. On the Democratic side the most noted name is that of James Gallagher whose ready flow of oratory will no doubt often enllven the debates of the House.

Mir. Henderson. of St. Louis. had con- versation with the President, recently, in which he advised him that most of tLe present incumbents in office were hostile to his reform policy. Of this there can be little doubt. Most of them owe their places to the vicious system of Congress ional appointment heretofore m vogue. and are naturally hostile to a reform that renders their positions insecure. Said MT.

The trial of the South Carolina Ring theives seems to be fairly conducted, not wIthstanding the cries of persecution in certain Bourbon Republican journals. Ex- Treasurer Cardoza was tried by a Repub- liean judge and convicted by ajury com. posed of eight negroes and four whites. There are are over twenty members of 8 former legislature ready to swear that they were bribed by Senator Patterson to carry through the Blue Ridge Railroad steal. It was with part of the proceeds of this subsidy that Patterson bought his way into the United States Senate. There never was moro bare-faced piece of dem- agoguism than the attempt to arouse Northern sympathy in favor of the South Carolina Ring. No respectable man of either party in that state denies their guilt, and the careful fairness, as we'll as the complete success of the prosecutions thus far conducted against them, are ex- tremely creditable to the present officers of that State.
