Ia April, 18oG, there was no election

orthere being three parties in the field.
The republicans and Americans together
bad but about "000 more votes than the
Democrat?, and 20 rnaj. in tbe Legislature.

In 1SG0, the Democrats determined to
carry Connecticut by fair means or fool, at
tbe April diction. They raised $20,000
ia New York city alone for that purpose,
and eobnii-'d Titers and natura'ited Irish

close who was sen by President Tierce

during the Kansas and Lecotnpton wars.
Comiog home (like Rjcbanan.) not com
mitted to any fac:ion, it was hoped be
might break up the Rep. phalanx, and
was promised tbe nomination fur Vice
President if he succeeded. Tbe contest
was the warmest, and the vote cast the !
highest, the State ever saw. In the citiea j
and factories, the Democrats gained, bat
tho villagers and farmers brought all up
right, and the Republicans conquer in a
square, desperate fibt. lil'CKlMJUAM is
re-elected Governor by COO majority, and
the Legislature (to elect a U. S. Senator) is
Rep. by 2 to 1 ! This shows a more con

BwMiuKriiiiT.Cunii., March 27, IsGO.
The 20,oou I unit, contributed by the Sham
Democracy of ic York fur electioneering
purposes in Connecticut, has sprung a mine
thai will blow the Democratic party sky high.
Ii was announced 10 this city, last week, that
Tom Corwiu would address the Republicans
nf Bridgeport on Wednesday evening. On
Saturday, the Democratic party cunningly
hired, tor every evening till the election, the
Town Hall, and no room of sullicieut capacity
could be had for Mr. Corwin. The Republi
cans resolved, at once, to build a Public Halt.
By noon ample means were subscribed. A
central location was secured. Notices were
sent to tbe various Republican carpenters,
joiners, artisans, mechanics, and laborers,
both in the city and neighboring towns. Early
on Monday morning, ample materials were
on the ground, the field was literally rilled with
workmen, and the building went up like magic
The hall is intended fur ibis and ihe coming
Presidential election. It is well floured, has
ample galleries, is lighted with gas, and will
aeat from 3,00'J to 4.1HKI. li will be opened
on Wednesday evening, and inaugurated by
Tom Corwin. The Democratic party have
compelled Republicans in other places by the
same policy to erect public halls. One of the
largest political gatherings in this Slate was
held in a hall in New Haven, last week, which
was built by the Republicans. The enthusi
asm and public spirit forcibly remind one of
the exciting log cabins times of Tippecanoe,
and appearances seem to indicate a similar
political conquest Cor. N. Y. Tribune.
Rhode Island Election. The Dcm
ecraU in this State made no distinct nom
ination, but coalesced with some of tbe
Opposition and supported Wm. Spragne,
wealthy nominal Republican, who has
1500 majority over Paddleford the regu
lar candidate. Tbe same combination
have the Legislature.
Detroit, April 2. A number of cit
ies in this State held their municipal
elections to day. The Republicans elected
their candidate for Mayor, in Detroit,
Adrian, Grand lUpids, Jacksoo, Flint,
Coldwater and Hudson. In Owasso, Yps
ilanti, Nile and Pontiac, tbe Democratic
candidates for Mayor were elected.
The Township elections in New York
have resulted during tbe yesrs 1358, 1S59
and 1860, as follows : 1858, Republicans
4 15, all others, 225; 1859, Republicans
47C, all others 257 ; 1360, Republicans
612. all others 217. That will do.
At tbe municipal election in St. Lonis,
the Republicans carried five wards, the
Democrats two, and no-party men two.
Col. lirown writes to the War Depart
ment, from Krownsville, Teias, that re
ports most f tlse and exaggerated are put in
circulation by interested persons in fer
menting tbe trouble on the Rio Grande
border, immediately before the leaving of
tbe New Orleans steamer, for the purpose
of exercising an influence on public opin
ing in tbe Slates. Hence, such reports
should be received with tbe greatest cau
tion. He adds that Cortioae' movement
was a mere raid, and tbe accounts have
" largely magnified.

Senate Tbe bill to incorporate tbe
Susquehanna and Philadelphia Railroad
Company passed finally yeas 15, nays 12.
Tbe Senate took op tbe bill from tbe
House relative to tbe Police of Philadel
phia, which bad been vetoed by tbe Gov
ernor ; and tbe question being on tbe
passage of the bill, notwithstanding tbe
veto,it was negatived yeas 20, nays 11,
two-thirds not voting in tbe affirmative.
It was a strictly party vote.
Mr. McClure, from the Committee ot
Conference on the Sunbury and brie Rail
road bill, made report, and stated tbe terms
of agreement. ISy tbe provisions of tbe
bill no process can issue for tbe foreclosure
and salo of the road, cither by tbe Com
monwealth or my other of tbe creditors,
till May 1st, 1SC1. All such processes
are positively stayed till that time. Tbe
creditors fur work, labor and materials are
preferred, to tbe amount of $000,000.
The other features of tbe bill are general
ly as before.
The report gave rise to considerable
discussion. Mr. Peony opposed, and
Messrs. Finney and McClure supported it.

Mr. Bcardslee. I bad tbe floor before
tbe call for the previous question.
Much confusion prevailed. The lobbies
were crowded.
Tbe call for the previous question was
sustained, and on tbe question "shall tbe
main question be now put up," it was
agreed to yeas 50, nays 37.
Tbe report of tbe Committee was then
adopted. Yeas 52, nays 38.
The Legislature adjourned at high-noon,
Tuesday of this week, after a rather shor
ter session than usual 92 days.
Tbe Appropriation Rill reported a less
sum than is common, but it is possible tbe
additions made may make it large as ever.
The Lawyers in the Senate who alone
compose almost a majority therein raised
the salaries of tbe Judges of the Supreme
Court to about $4200. Tbe House ob
jected. The Senate insisted, endangering
the loss of tbo Appropriation Rill and an
extra session. Tbe House fioally yielded,
and thus another step in useless extrava
gance is inaugurated, and next year the
Common Pleas Judges will all demand an
increase of salary because the Supreme
Court Judges have bad more.
Tbe Lewisburg Dimes Saving Institu
tion passed and became a law.
Tbe bill to require hucksters in Nor
thumberland and Union to pay a license,

was incorporated.
Tbe bill authorizing Justices' Courts
with a Jury of six in Union and other
counties, to try certain commonwealth ca
ses, passed in House, but a similar law for
other counties baving been vetoed by tbe
Governor, this was out pushed in tbe Sen
ate, and therefore failed.
The bill to abolish tbe Northern District
of the Supreme Court (Sunbury) passed
in tbe House, but we are unapprized of

New County. The Legislature carved
a new county, to be called Cameron, out
of part of M Hem, Potter, Clinton, and
Elk counties, against tbe earnest protest
of Mr. Blood, who represents one of tbe
dismembered counties in tbe Senate. Tbe
new county ia just large enough to come
within tbe provisions of tbe Constitution,
and contains very sparse population, yet
tbe Governor "approved" the bill ! and
vetoed tbe Brady township bill, against

concerned I

Trouble. Richard J. iialdeman is
"out" of the Harrisburg Patriot & Union
office a fact which be does not like, but
can't help.
"What does it Mean ?" We find in
Forney's Prat of Wednesday, a tolerably
plain declaration of neutrality in tbe com
ing gubernatorial contest. It says that if
Mr. Foster intends to do anything, be
must immediately repudiate tbe Adminis
tration of James Buchanan. As Mr. Fos
ter can not repudiate Buchanan's iniquities
without repudiating tbe plank in tbe Rea
ding platform, it is pretty evident that be
can not get the support of Mr. Forney's
paper. The Press highly eulogises Col.
Curtin in the same article. We receive
this as new evidence that the fusion at
Reading was not real as we more than
hinted at the time.
Bill English's father has been appointed
Marshal of Indiana another reward to a
Lecompton Congressman. His appoint
ment creates a great stir in tbat State.

ring to Judge Douglas, says : "There b
no Democrat in the country, from Green
Bay to tbe Florida reefs, tbat ran get up
half tbe enthusiasm, that will suit the
Democracy of the North-West and the
whole Union as well as be, and we look
upon bis nomination as certain to come.
It must come, or the Democrat hte- the
Presitleat there is no other choice no
half way ground."
It is definitely settled, and can not be
changed, tbat tbe Democratio Convention
will meet at Charleston. Any transfer,
now, would involve various delegations
and individuals in large pecuniary dama
ges from contracts already made.
A Political Rumob. A rumor,which
I am disposed to believe, after thorough
inquiry, is in circulation in this city, to tbe
effect that tbe Administration bas advised
and will support the secession of tbe South
ern delegates from tbe Charleston Conven
tion, should Douglas be nominated. A
Cabinet Minuter it taid to hare stated to a
dittimjuithed Xorlhrrn Democrat, two or
three ayn, that this scheme teas arran
ged, and he did not hesitate to add that it
teas tery Jar from improbable that the
South tcnuld take ioiusion of the Union
Constitutional Convention, tchkh is to as
semble at Baltimore on the 9A of Hay, in
order to array the S"Uthern people against
Douglas, should he succeed in overwhelming
his opponents of the National Convention.
You need not be surprised if this project
is carried out. Tbat it is in contemplation
I do not doubt. "Occasional."
II o well Cobb has withdrawn his name
from tbe Presidential canvass.
We believe we run no hazard whatever
in asserting that not one single free State
with Ibe possible exceptioo of California,
will ever vote for Congn agonal protection
to Slavery in tbe Territories. And if the
Democrats of tbe South succeed at Charles

tbey will bave decided the result in ad

Caterpillars With a little watchful

A little practice will enable one to detect
them on the small branches of tbe cherry

end-wise in a little bunch around the
limb, and very ingeniously covered with a
kind of gum or cement to protect tbe em
