., The result IS great surprise. It gives the state to the Republicans on sheriffs' vote by some 1000 majority. The Re- publicans choose four out of eight sheriffs and reduce the Democratic maj ority of Litch6eld county to 139. It will be ob- served also that Republicans carry all the Congressional Districts but this, which only gives a Democratic majority of sev- en. So astonishing a result in an "off year, shows that Mr. Hayes has not kill led Republicanism in Connecticut.
 Hon. Charles B. Andrews, elected. yes- terday, to represent Litchfield in the next legislature, will no doubt take promi. nent position in the House. He went to the Senate from this District in 1868 and again in 1869; and, the last year of his ser- vice, he was chairman of the judiciary committee on the part of the Senate. MT. Andrews is decidedly the most prom inent Republican lawyer in this county, and has probably the most lucrative prac- tice of any lawyer of our bar It would seem to us that he would have at least an equal claim to the Speakership with any Republican whose name we have noticed among the list of Representatives: and. if not chosen Speaker, there is certainly no one, unless it be Judge Brewster, of Dan- bury, so we'll qualified to take the Chair manship of the Judiciary Comm ittee, and the leadership of the House.
