Gen. SIoat-The Vote of the State-Lav-
 yeIs in the Legislature.
 Gen. Sloat it is now quite certain is elected Comptroller His plurality is 2, 2,3OO with 20 towns to hear from.
 The total vote of the State of Connecticut for Governor this year is 115,333 against 132 7G2 for Governor in 18SO-a decline of 17.43O. The Republican vote for Governor falls off from CT O7O to 54 872-a decline of 12, 19S and the Democratic vote for Cover nor falls off from 64, 293 to 59 ,O20-a decline of 5,273. The year 1880 was Presidential rear" and it was natural for it to draw 8 heavier vote than an ''off" tiue like this, but it seems to have been Republicans mostly who staid at home. They more than double l the Democratic stay at homes, and they ex- ceed the latter only by few votes less than 1000. Had about a third of these come to l the polls the result would have been the suc- cess of the Republican ticket
 l There are thirteen lawyers elected to the Connecticut House of Representatives eight being Republicans and five Demo, crats. They are as follows: W. w. Perry, Hartford; William E. Simonds Canton l George P. McKean, Simsbury; Edward D. Robbins, Wethersfeld; William A. Wright, Branford William E. Downs, Der l by; Bryan F. Mahan, New London Frank | T. Brown. Norwich David B. Lockwood Bridgeport William B. Glover, Fairfield Leonard J. Nickerson, Cornwall; Roland ! Hitchcock, Winchester Edward l.. Gran dall Brooklyn. This list gives an assort ment enough to make up judiciary committee of eight. If the usual custom is followed one of the legal gentlemen on tht Republican side will be chosen speaker though a choice may be made from the lay men. In the latter case MT. Pine, of Derby will be conspicuous candidate. If lawye shall be taken the choice will probably ner row down to Messrs Robbins of Wethers field, Simonds of Canton, and Downs of Der by. In many respects position on the foo | at the next session will be desirable for
 quick man. A large proportion of the mem
 bers are new men, and the opening for lead

"Gems For the Firestde.''
 The city is now being canvassed for fine work with the above title. The Journal ot Education says of it:
 No more valuable or beautiful volume has ever been issued for family reading by Amer ican publishers. It contains the most unique, pithy and beautiful literary treasures, select- ed from the writings of the greatest minds in the realms of poetry and philosophy, wit and humor, statesmanship and religion. Among the galaxy of brilliant men and women of genius whose writings enrich it's pages are Shakespeare, Milton, Moore, Burns, Bry- ant, Byron, Shelly, Scott, Campbell, Hood. Wordsworth, Longfellow, Tennyson, Dickens, Lover, Everett, Bret Harts Frank lin, Maoaulay, and about two hundred other authors of established fame, also many rare and excellent pieces of peculiar merit whose authorship is unknown. The elegant and ar- tistic illustrations help to make this book one of the most rich and valuable compen- diums of choice reading for the home circle In fine, a charming library of itself of prose and poetry. The publishers well say of the work of the accomplished editor, ''he has gathered the apples of gold,' which they have set in pictures of silver. Care is shown in every detail of the publication. Paper was made expressly for the volume. Its tex ture is firm and durable, it's surface Is ele- gantly finished and it's tone is delicate and pleasing to the eye. The typographical ef- fects secure beauty on every page, and the binding is durable and elegant in appearance If were called upon to select only one choice book for the home out of the vast number of elegant and tasteful ones now published, we should unhesitatingly select the Gems for the Fireside,' ,' edited by Dr. Tiffany.
