THE CASE OF CONNECTICUT IN BRIEF.
From the N. T, Tribune.
The World rejoiced oyer the Democratio
victory in Connecticut, at the election of the
2d of April last; and the Herald echoed the
verdict if not the pit-ans. Those may best
laugh who win; and the time seems fitting
for a summary of the causes of hilarity.
1. It was distinctly charged, in a respon
sible way, both in Connecticut and New York,
three days before the election, that Governor
English was engaged in negotiations with
notorious members of the Tammany King of
this city, to carry the election by some one
of the well-known Tammany appliances; and
a despatch from Governor English, furnish
ing strong corroborative proof of the negotia
tion, was produced. Its authenticity was de
tied, but we still stand ready to prove it,
whenever the Governor will have the kind
ness to give us an opportunity for securing
a process to compel the attendance of wit
nessed. 2. On the morning of the second day after
the election, the most careful calculation we
could make on the returns showed the vote
for Governor to be, for l&rshall Jewell,
45,789; for James E. English, 45,074; exclu
sive of the vote of six towns that gave Eng
lish 11 majority last year. Subsequently the
returns, as certified, gave English a trilling
majority.
3. It was presently discovered in the mi
nute examination to which the closeness of
the contest led, that there were discrepan
cies and other reasons to suspect error in the
returns from the towns of Cheshire and En
field, and from the Fourth ward of New
Haven. The Republicans believed these
sufficient to turn the scale in favor of Jewell,
or at least to bring the votes for the rival
candidates so near each other that the few
scattering ballots would prevent either from
having a clear majority, and so throw the
election, under the Constitution of Connecti
cut, into the Republican Legislature.
4. The Democrats resisted every stop
towards an investigation of the doubtful re
turns in their local press, here in New York,
and in the Legislature. The Republicans as
Bteadily courted investigation.
5. When they secured it, through an order
of the Legislature, their committee, fairly
chosen, and acting with all the f aots and wit
nesses before them, found,
(1.) That in Cheshire the Demooratio
Registrar directed the subtraction of 23 votes
from the acknowledged number cast and
counted for the Republican candidate, on the
ground that 23 men whose ballots had been
accepted were not duly qualified voters. Of
the 23 thus specified it was proved that one
did not vote at all, and there was no proof
that the other 22 voted the Republican ticket,
which bad been therefore unwarrantably
weakened by the withdrawal of their nam
ber from its aggregate vote. It was there
upon decided that the 23 wrongfully deducted
here from deweu s vote snouia oe resiorea.
(2.) That in Enfield the indorsement on a
racks ee of straight Democratio ticket -i, num
bering 7G, was inadvertently read upside
down, and counted as 06, thus giving Clover
nor English 20 more votes than were actually
cast for him. Both parties agreed as to this
error, it was mooted by the Moderator on the
face of his original return, and there has
been no disDute about it Binoe.
(3.) That in the Fourth ward of New Haven
100 straicht Democratio ticKets were irauau
lentlv placed among the ballots during the
counting. Subsequently, the clumsy cheats
discovered that, in case of a recount, this
must be deteoted, by comparison with the
tally, and so sought to conceal the fraud by
withdrawing 100 Republican tickets. The
crime was detected .by the gross contrast
shown between the vote on the State ticket
thus doctored, and that, ia another box, for
Rerresentatives. which had not been
tamnered with. 479 votes were re.
turned for Jewell, and the whole Re
publican State ticket, while it was not
denied that the Republican candidate for
Representative received 584, and for Board of
Relief CJ6. The committee then summoned
the voters before them as witnesses, . and,
. thanks to the stable character of the popula
tion, and the profound interest felt in de-
' featinsr the audacious fraud that had been
attempted, five hundred and forty-four elect
ors came before tne committee, ana severalty
swore to having voted for Jewell ! The frau
dulent abstraction of sixty-five ballots waa
proved bejond perad venture; and, with this
light upon their path the committee found
little difficulty in securing evidence fully war
ranting the report that precisely an even
package of one hundred had been taken.
6. The several corrections thus established
being made, the vote of Connecticut for Gov
ernor was proved to have been cast, 47,473
for Jewell. 47,373 for English, and 14
scattering, leaving Jewell eleoted by an abso
lute majority ol oo on tne popular vote.
That is the whole story. All honor to
the State that was noble enough to reverse the
current of Democratio victory, and sagaoious
enough to defeat secret villainy as well as
cpen and manly hostility! And now let as
commend to our late rejoicing Demooratio
friends a careful study of the returns from
Connecticut!
THE CHINESE PUZZLE.
From, the K. T. Herald.
In all the writings of the Celestial M o
hammed there is not perhaps a passage more
frequently quoted and admired by his fol
lowers than this: 'Wben you would do any
thing, first consider; when you have con
sidered, do it; then resume the tranquillity of
yourtaind." There is not much profundity
in the advice of Confucius; but then he was
the Bunbby of his time, and his luminous re
marks on everything, celestial and terrestrial,
are still regarded with awe and reverenoe by
the pig-tailed Cuttles of the Flowery Land.
From a perusal of the extraordinary and
highly interesting translation of the Chinese
incendiary pamphlet which we published on
Wednesday last, we gather that the
mandaiins and high ' officials of
the Celestial empire nave fully con
sidered and determined on the policy to be
pursued toward foreigners for the future.
They have commenced to act, bat it is to be
eeen whether they will be permitted by the
WeHtern nations to "resume the tranquillity
of their minds." We are inclined to think
thkt they will cot. The butchery of the Sif
ters of Mercy the llussiau tracer l-vt
June as but the beginning of a rebntlesa
war of txteiuiination. Tba plan adopted by
tie bigoted opponents of the conciliatory
policy cf Prince Kung to inoite the deprave!
4 oiiiiuon people to acts of murder and out
rage wsa wtll suited to the pur pone. Thi
inoht villainous f&Ufchojd concerning ChrU
tuiii'y tiid the motives and object! of CurU-
tians were put forth in the pamphlet to which
we have called attention, and distributed
all over China in a manner that implied
imperial aanotion - and approval. The
"sacred edict" was quoted extensively
tnd the "public reoords" referred to to prove
that the writers were sustained by the Gov
ernment at Pekin in their hostility to- the
foreicn Donnlation. That they were bo sus
tained and encouraged in their fell purpose
the declaration of the Emperor, that no in
demnity wonld be paid to families of the
Europeans massacred at Tien-tain, is snffloient
evidence. And, indeed, the increasing diffl
cultv experienced by the representatives of
the Western nations in maintaining relations
i ? . . . . 9 t . .
with the Chinese officials shows clearly
ecttich that matters ere approaching a crisis.
While pretending to observe treaties they
evade their obligations, and are more and
more obstructive and insolent.
It may be true that the hatred now mani
fested by the Chinese towards the Christians
ia partly due to the injudicious zeal of the
mif-Bionaries. But that this is not the main
cause is very plain. The explanation of the
present outbreak of fanatic hatred will be
found in the faot that the mandarins perceive
that, through the civilizing influences of
Christianity, their hold on the masses is being
gradually loosened and their position under
mined. It is their interest to be conservative
and exclusive. Left to themselves, the peo
ple would infinitely prefer prosperity and the
barbarians to misery and tne mandarins;
but the gentlemen of the red buttons and
peacocks' feathers are masters of the situa
tion, and tneir mandates must do ooeyea.
Truly the situation, as revealed to us by
this extraordinary explanation of mandarin
policy, is a Chinese puzzle. How is it to be
solved by the West? We may enter into
agreements with the mandarins and they in
variably beat ns in diplomacy and make
treaties with them, but now can we insure
their observance ? It well suits the policy of
the exclusive government of Pekin and its
agents in the provinces to cover up the
atrocities of the wretches they secretly incite
to deeds of blood, by unmeaning procla
mations and vermilion edicts; but the
interests of our citizens, as well as those
of the subjects of European nations doing
business in China, demand that the mandarins
should be taught a lesson. It is now gene
rally admitted that the mission of Mr. Bur-
lingame was a failure. The treaty entered
into with France certainly did not
prevent indiscriminate massacre of French
tubiects; and as k has been witn tne rrencn
it may be with us. The hostility of the Chi
nese is not confined to tne citizens ot any
one country, but includes all foreigners in
China. But the mission of Barlingame
served the purpose of the Chinese, a it gave
them time to prepare lor tne repudiation ol
all treaties previously made with the Western
powers. Being now, as they suppose in their
arrogance, prepared to resist any farther
attempts to spread Western civilization in
China, they boldly proolaim their defiance.
The result must be war. 1 ranee, as Boon as
fhe recovers from her present helpless condi
tion, will surely demand satisfaction for the
murder of her citizens and exaotan indemnity.
We are prepared to learn that other nations
have determined on measures for the security
of the lives and property of tneir people in
China. The sooner they do so the better, in
our opinion. A coalition of the Governments
of the West to obtain, by persuasion if possi
ble, but by force of arms u necessary, proper
guarantees that peaceful traders and Christian
missionaries will not be molested or mur
dered, is the only solution of the Chinese
puzzle that we can see.
THE NEW TREATY WITH ENGLAND.
From the N. Y. Time.
If there is anything more than empty talk
in the often-expressed desire of the maj ority
f mankind to see disputes between nations
settled by arbitration, instead of by the
sword, the "Treaty of Washington ought to
be received with rejoicing, not only by the
nations chiefly concerned, but by the whole
civilized world. It marks a great and un
expected advance towards that better age
when it will be considered Infamous for any
ruler or people to declare war until every
means of peaceable settlement has been
tried in vain. Our own country has always
taken the lead in negotiations of this charac
ter, and it is an immense security for the
future peace of the world that Great Britain
should now be joined with it. It would be
impossible to overestimate the valae of the
example thus set to other nations. We are
not bo sanguine as to believe that after this
there will be no more wars, bat at a period
when the people are everywhere exercising
bo powerful and direct a control over their
Governments, it is not presumptuous to
believe that, before war is declared, other
nations will hereafter ask whether the prece
dent set by the United States and Great Bri
tain cannot be followed. Before their blood
is shed, and their treasure squandered, they
will point their rulers to the example set by
England and Amerioa. Thus, out of the
Alabama claims, which have so long seemed
an on mixed evil, great and lasting good may
arise: and two great nations, which have so
lone stood in the foreground of civilizttion.
and which have done and are doing a great
and imperishable work, may not only be
more closely knit together by ties of mutual
respect and confidence, but may be the
means of averting incalculable misery and
Buffering from other nations.
The principle of arbitration could not pos
sibly be more fairly, thoroughly, or wisely
applied to practical affairs than it is in this
new treaty. The more closely it is studied,
the more deeply will it commend itself to
the common sense of the people on both
sides the Atlantic There may be disputes
over minor points bat in all its main
features, as well as in the prinoiple upon
which it is based, tne treaty is tne very
model of fairness. Every difference exist
ing between the two countries is referred to
arbitrators whose perfect impartiality no
living man can question. The world has
been ransacked for men whose jadgment
would be utterly unbiassed, and before them
our differences are to be laid, with
full power of decision. The Alabama
claims are to be
adjudicated upon by nve
men selected on
a principle which is so
even-handed that
all the statesmen of the
age, if they disoussed the matter for years,
could not improve upon it. The claims of
Biitibh subjects against the United States,
and of American citizens against Great
Britain, arising out of other causes thin the
escapes of the Rebel cruisers, are to be re
ferred to a totally distinct commission, ap
pointed in an equally just and honorable
manner. The San Junn difficulty is to be
referred to the arbitration of the Emperor
of Germany, who is to havo the absolute
power of deciding upon it. In tbii way every
joint at tissue has Wen treated. Wa say that
a treaty of this kind Is a splendid triauipu of
modern civilization, and an immortal oon.
tnbution to the history of the two great na
tions bet wet n whom, we trust, it will be con
cluded.
The treaty not only provides for ths settle
ment of outstanding differences, but it con
tains within it provisions whioh will render
the recurrence of similar difficulties impossi
ble. There are three Bbort rales embodied
in it which give the whole dooament a price
ltfs value, and will form the most valuable
addition to international law ever made. We
quote these rales below, and ask our readers
whether it would not be a crime to rejeot any
treaty which contained them. Great Britain
not only agrees to be bound by these rules in
future, but further agrees to make them
retrospective in their action that is, she
consents to nave her liability for the escape
of the Alabama decided as if these rules
bad been in existence when the occurrence
took place. This ia conceding all that she
has hitherto denied but it is in no spirit
of boastfulness that we mention
the fart. No jnet man will refuse credit ta
England for reverting her former policy on
this question, and coming more than half
way to meet as on the ground of reason and
justice. Moreover, the treaty opens with a
frank expression of "regret" on the part of.
her Majesty's Government "for the esoape,
under whatever circumstances, of the Ala
bama and other vessels from British ports,
and for the depredations committed by those
vessels. when we remember how impossi
ble it seemed a few years ago 1 3 extract any
6uch admission from the British Govern
ment, the importance of this apology for
such it is, although an apology becom
ing a great nation will be increased
in our estimation. As for the "rules"
referred to, they will bear careful
discussion at another time. For the present
we leave tne treaty to be reaa and scuaied
by our readers. Let them regard it from
whatever point of view they may, and we be
lieve they will rise from its perusal with the
conviction that a fairer basis ror a settlement
of our differences with Great Britain no
human being or collection of hnmaa beings
could devise, lhe commissioners who drew it
up well deserve the gratitude and respect of
both nations. We cannot believe that fac
tious ciiticism in any quarter can prevent
this treaty being ratified but if it did, we
might as well abandon finally the hope of
settling disputes by peaceable arbitration,
and make up our minds to resort to what has
bo long cursed the earth the "arbitrament
of the sword.
