GLORIOUS DEMOCRATIC VICTORY
IN CONNECTICUT 1
TUN DAWN OF A NEW 13114 AT BAND.
We have the unspeakable pleasure of
announcipg to our readers that the Damp
er* of Connecticut have met the enemy
and they are-onrs ! One Governor, three
Congressmen, and the prestage of a victo
ry that will do more to revive the hopes
and increase thei activity of Democrats
than any event that has occurred in the
six past unhappy - years I
The Democratic candidate for Governor,
Mr. English, is successful by a majority of
700 votes, a gain of about 1800 since last
year. Of the four Congressmen chosen,
three are Democrats, and their combined
majority will not be less than 1800." The
ambitions showman, P. T. Barnum, is cho
sen to—stay at home.
• Limit year the Radicals carried the State
by nearly 600 majority, and the year pre
vious they elected all of the four Congress
men. At the - Congressional election in
1865, their majority was 11,153, and in the
brief period of two years, we have gained
12,953 votes, in a poll of not quite 90,000.
Who will say, after this, that there is no
encouragement for the good old cause?
Let Democrats in Pennsylvania and New
York but show the same zeal as their
brethren in Connecticut—distribute docu
merits, h?ld meetings, and labor with tad-
Airing energy in extending the circulation
of their party press—and it will not be
long until the two great States of tbe Union
take their stand on the right side, to re
main there steadfastly in the future.
The good news is not confined alone to
Conneciiiitt. 'in Cleveland, Ohio. , for
years the most Radical city in the West,
the Demlcratic candidate for Mayor has
been successful, and in Columbus, our
ticket his been elected by majority of
nearly GOICIr-a gain of over 500 in a single
year..
From almost every - quarter joyful tidings
greet us. The great reaction, has at length
set in, and the fate of Rsdicalismis sealed.
Cheer up, boys, and all will yet be well.
A long null, a strong pull and a pull alto
gether will place the Exceliior and Key
stone States side by side with Ccinnecticut
next fall.
A ANN'AI,KING FIRCAIIEE TO DRFILIED
POOR MEN OF THEIR VOTER.
Wherever the 'Radicals have control,of
the State Legislatures they ere deliber
ately delThing restrictions upon the elec
tive franchise as it now exists. Every jut
pediment is to be placed in the way of,
laboring white
_men. The Registration'
law about to be enacted in this State, a
synopsis of which we hope soon to be able
to publish, is intended to strike directly
at the poorer classes of white voters. The
'infamous party now in power know very
well.that the, Democratic party is largely
composed of the working men of the
cities and towns. To impede these in vot
ing is b 5 - lessen the Democratic vote. It
is for that purpose that the Registration
Jaw of New York, which was enacted for
the sole purpose of reducing the Demo
cratic vote in the cities and towns, is to
be re-enacted in this State. When the
bill was on its passage, Senator McCand
less moved to amend it so that the meet
ings of the boards of registration be kept
open from 9 a. in. to 9 p. m., ao as to Allow
the working men an opportunity to get
registered without losing time from work.
The Radicals voted that fair proposition
down, the vote standing, yeas 12 DPI:00-
,
mats and one Radical, nays 15, all Run
. cals. The hours now stand from 9a. m.
tatter laboring men have gone to work)
10 6 p. in. (before -they have returned
from work). Mr. McCandless also moved
that the polls should be kept open from 8
a. tn. to 8. p. m. This entirely fair propo
sition was also defeated by the Radicals,
20 of them voting against it.
SOLD! 'IRS lIEJNICTED.
The rejection by the Senate of such
nominations as General Couch for Collec
tor of Boston, General Frank Blair for
Minister to Austria, and Genital Slocum
as Naval Officer• for New York, has crea
ted a very general feeling of indignation.
These, gentlemen are among the bravest
and• most deserving officers who gave their
services toward putting deist' the rebel
lion. General Couch distinguished him
selt during Legs invasion of Pennsylva
nia; General Blair earned high military
honors in the Wecst and South,. and Gen.
Slocum served as division commander un
der Sherman in his lamella march to the
sea and baCk through the Carolinas. The
rejection of snob men for offices demand
ing a far inferior capacity to theirs, and
That in favor of mere partisans, can only
be characterized, as atrocious insolence.
The whole, country feels insulted in the
indignitfiakfered them. This is one of the
worst things that the Radicals have as yet
- attempted. in °ingress, and they may rest
assured that they will be made to suffer
for it,
Tao proposition introduced into the
Senate a few days ago by Mr. Wilson, to
establish impartial suffrage in all the
States of the Union. meets with strong
opposition from the Republican members
, representing the Middle and Western
Staten. Senator Sherman, of Ohio, de
clared in private conversation the other
day that such a measure would be resisted
•by the people of-his State, and be. did not
believe Congress would.lorce them to ac•
apt it. 'This is the 'way .Northern Radi
oils talk of negro suffrage in their own
States, yet they vote without any com
punctions of consoienee to enforce it upon
the South.
WE Gin elsewhere the text of the speech
of Beverly Nub, whoa called by the Co
lumbia *South Carolinian as, colored citizen
of Columbia," to The colored meeting in
that place, March IS. If Mr. Nash repre•
outs his race, the negro vote-will be nuns-.
-imous against the• Radical party in the
Southern States. The speech- is worth
reading, if for nothing more than to see
_what can be said by a representative of
Sumner's• "barbarism of slavery ;" and in
point of style it is equal, and in matter it
is quite superior, to many of the speeches
uttered by some of the Radical represen-.
Wives in Washington.

Pdr. Scofield, of this district, we are pleased

endorsement of his colustitneatte.
THE BIGHTS OP MINORITIES.
_ The high.handed manner in which the
Radicals have made use of .their party
predominance is beginning to awaken at
tention to the evil in our'system of repre
r
sentation by which the minority is .cut
off from all participation' in the legislation
of the States or Nation. Its result, as One
of our coternporaries aptly remarks, is,
that the people of even the States which
Congress graciously allows to send repre.
sentatives to its Halls era glaringtrmisrep
resented and unrepresented ; that Con
press, as composed at present, is nothing
like a_fair index of the will of the people
as expressed in the,most recent elections.
Take,..for instance, the case in New Hamp
shire. The Radical vote was 35,776 and
the Democratic 32,733. The delegation
consists of three representatives. It is ap
parent that if two of these were Radical
and one Democratic, the Radicals would
have, proportionally, a stronger vote in
Congress than their majority in the' State
would justify. Still, as you cannot split a
Congressman, the Democracy would have
no reason to complain if they seed - red one
representative. But the - fact is the Radi
cals obtain all three,and Nevrtfampshirit's
voice in the balls of national legislation
entirely uninfluenced by her thirty-two
thousand Democrats. Or take New York.
The last Radical vote was 366,315 against
352 526 Democratic. A fair proportional
division of her thirty-one representativee
would be, Radical sixteen, Democratic fif
teen, whereas it stands, Radical twenty,
Opposition of all sorts, eleven. These ex
amples are sufficient to indicate the point
we desire to make. Let us now see what
the extent of the evil is.
The
. House of Representatives of the
Fortieth Congress. as it now stands, is}'
.mposed of one hundred and twenty-sev
en Radicals and thirty-four Democrats.
Five States are yet to elect. Should the
result be the same as for the Thirty-Ninth
Congress, the present Coilgress will con
tain. one hundred and forty-four Radicals
against forty-three, Democrats , . The vote
at the latest general elections in the States
which have a voice in Congress, footed
up:
Radical ....
Democratic.
4 026,81
T0ta1....
This will give one member of the one
hundred and eighty-seven which will com
pose the lower House of the Fortieth Con
gress when all the elections are held to
every 21,534 voters. The just division of
representatives, therefore, in proportion to
the total vote would be, Radical one hund
red and one; Democratic eighty-six,,n
stead of the, gross disproportion which we
bid fair to have, of Radical one hundred
and forty-four, and Democratic forty-three.
In this matter we have nothing to grum
ble over but bad luck. It is the natural
result 'of a defective System. In another
Congress the disproportion might' be as
great upon our side. But we submit that
the evil we have indicated is a glaring one.
It is clear that, under our present system,
large minorities are practically po*erless,
\whereas justice would declare they should
have strength in Congress proportional to
their power at tbs ballot box. As we said,
it is easier to point out the evil than to
suggest its remedy. Several devices have
been proposed to correct it, but as yet none
that were satisfactory.
W e allude to it now simply to set our
readers to thinking upon what we have
long regarded as a serious mistake, which
is crying aloud for a remedy.• It is by_ the
close balance of parties that the security
of our institutions is most happily main
tained. When neither is largely in the as
cendant, power is lets; likely to be abused.
Irma either is largely te the preponder
ance, it is almost impossible to keep it
within bounds
THE , EKINODOIO OF CANADA.”
Certain Radicals are sorely exercised in
their minds because of a report which
reaches us from Toronto to the effect that
the new Confederation of the -British'
American Provinces is to assume and be
known by the name of the "Kingdom of
Canada." - In the Senate Hr., Cameron has
introduced a resolution instructing the
Committee on Foreign Relations "to in.
quire what steps are necessary to prevent
foreign governments from introducing
upon this continent institutions and gov
ernments contrary to those established by
the founders of this Republic." It is
passing strange that the people who are
so terribly sensitive to the possible con
tagion of monarchial words to the north of
of us, should be at the same time mosVse
renely indifferent to the direct and cer
tain contagion of monarchial facts in the
veryrbeart of the nation itself. The-Ta
nadians propose to baptise their new goy:
ernment of laws and !I a Constitution a
"kingdom." The Radical majority in
Congress have just ordained the establish-
ment over one-half of the late American
Union of a series• of military despotisms.
In the proposed Kingdom of Canada the
lives and liberties of its free inhabitants
will be guaranteed to them by such strict
and clear limitations of the authority of
the government as our fathers .once be
lieved they had founded end made stable
far themselves and their descendants. In
the new military governments of. the
Southern States, the lives and the liber
ties of the inhabitants will be held at the
metcy and discretion of rulers completely
irresponsible to the people over whom
they are to rule, as the Russian satraps of
Poland are to the Poles, or the British
viceroys of India to the Hindoos.
If•ever there was a case fitted to the
parable of the mote and_ the beam, it is
this. What a miserable piece of hlindness
or of hypocrisy it is to rave about the ver
bal introduction of royalty into provinces
utterk foreign to us and to our affairs,
,while we smoothly acquiesce in the en
grafting upon our own body politic, not of
any verbal royally, but of a most solid and
real imperialism, wearing all that is worst
and deadliest to human progress, its its
yen essence. as well as in its name ! .

21 Republicans and 12 Democrats, giving

The Philadelphia Age, ;in the course of
an able article exPoining the financial re.
suits of the Radical policy,clearly disclos
es that the people of the North are Pay
ing a heavy price for the luxury of a di-
vided nation, and the inflated currency I
which the Bullet's have determined to
perpetuate. They are cheapening all the
'great products of the North. and adding
to the cost ()limb as aro grown at the
South. Let us look at some of the facts.
Take the article of 'sugar. Cuba clarified
is quoted at 9 cents, gold. That would
be from 121 to 13} currency, using the
lowest quotation of gold, that is. 133 i.
Within a few years Havana sugar could be
bought at from si, brown, to 7} cents, clar
ified; or loaf from 11 to 13 cents per pound.
Sugar is a Southern product. Carolina
rice is quoted at 10; to 11 cents. It has
sold by the tierce in our market at 37i cis ,
the retail price at the same time being
from sto 6 cents. The gold quotation in
this instance would be 81 , cents per pound,
an advance of nearly one hundred and
fifty per cent. over the lowest price given
Rice comes froth the South. Cotton is
quoted at from 30'to 31 cents. Its twice
in gold would be from 21 to 22 cent.. The
highest price which cotton ruled anterior
to the war was from 8,11 to 13 cents. The
advance, therefore. ranges near one build
rid per cent, at the present 'time. The
price of the best cotton clsths, 'bite or
printed, f.rmerly rated Nirameutta from
11 to 12 cents ; Merrimack apd Sprague
Wile from 12 to 13 cents. These brands
are now selling at frrm 22 to 28 cents.and
the white goods higher in proportion—
that is from 30 to 40 . cents: This 'is the
Southern side of the account.
Now look how Northern products have
been affected. We - have to pay high for
all articles purchased. .Do our farmers get
a corresponding advance on the articles
they sell ? Hay is quoted—the average—
taking the short ton. at $35.20. This in
gold is hut $23 65, a price loirer, or as low,
as it rated trn or twenty years ago, We
ship and sell hay to the Southern States,
and the small demand for it there keeps
-the price lower than it would be if the
South were allowed to move on prosper
ously. Wool, a highly important article of
commerce. which is produced in'all the
Northern States, is qtioted as follows:
Double extra, 58 to 60 cents—highest fig
ure 62 to 65 cents ; lowest inferior quality
32 to 40 cent,. In this case the reduction
to gold would give 44 cents as the highest
price, and 211 cents as the lowest. In
1845-46 wool, when prices were much4low
er for all products than they are at pres
ent, would readily bring from 33 to 35 eta.
in gold. We show it now selling at from
21i to 44 cents. The same ratio of decrease
exists in all the leading products of the
North which are exchanged for those of
the -South.
2.184,282
.. 1,842 549
It is thus plainly to be seen that the ar
ticles we most need, sugar, rice and cotton
all exhibit a great advance over their form
er or actual value, while those of which we
have a superabundance, or for• which we
are asking a market, are now quoted at
less than their relative values. This is a
tax upon the business and industry of the
North, self-imposed by those who uphold
the Radical patty imatheir policy of pre
venting a settlement of the difficulties be
tween the States. The Radicals hinder
the South from applying all its energies to
,increase the production of that seetion.
and the limited supply, in connection with
the inflated currency, keeps up the price
of the articles needed in the North. Radi
cal rule is s costly one to the nation, and
the sooner the people recognise that fact
and apply the remedy, the sooner will th•
burdens which now press to the earth the
business of the North be removed.

plained, in a temperate statement; its in

the investigation had become a farce, and
said that the Committee daily continued
its labors, and had made arrangements to
resume them in May. If the facts justi.
fied such action, the Committee would not
hesitate to recommend impeachrient. Mr
Fernando Wood quoted Mr. Woodbridge
as having said that nothing 'had been die
covered on which &resolution of impeach
ment could be predicated--a statement
denied by Mr. Woodbridge.' Gen. Butler,
in reply. Ao Mr. Wood, said that Abe Presi

to the fact that of 4G papers published in
his District of Kansas,- there were not six
which bed not emphatically deolared that
Mr. Johnson should be impeached. Ms
Stevens expressed his belief that the Com
mittee had no intention except to delude
the people, and complained of the dilly

motion to lay the resolution on the table
was defeated by 52 to 56, and finally 'ilia

IT is understood that the question of
releasing Jefferson Davis; on bail or on

to the Attorney General by the President
for the purpose of obtaining his opinion
on the propriety of snob action. It is
well settled that Mr. Davis . will not be
tried for an indefinite period. .The Pree.
Went has no power to compel the proper
judicial officers to try him, and therefore
the question arises whether he can con

Republican Senators have expressed the

was snowing quite fast, and about three inch
es of snow lay on the ground. We recrossed
the Blue Ridge at Gordoeterrille, rain, and
snow falling alternately. For about tea miles
from Gordonsville we passed through a wood
ed country, thinly timbered. After this the
country almost the whole way to Richmond
is tobacco laud, and seems to be poorly calif-.
rated. There are bat few buildings and the
plantations are large, The soil is sandy—
about 12 or • - 18 inches of this soil is un

for they are not towns.) Here is* fine man

fine cut tobacco manufacturer. At , Hanover
Junction, 28 miles from Richmond, we begin
to-see some old fortifications. The country
from Gordonsville to here is quite level. At •
this place it begins to be more rolling. We

business is carried on here, inoluding several

it must be attributed to the old peculiarities

they turned into a mob and burned the city,'

soul together. The Commissary Department.
(at first in charge of Major. Lawrence) can telt
a sad tale of the miseries of the people. They
are now moving fa earnest in reconstructionH

'pill, yet they take it in a remarkably philo: 7
sophical spirit. Once the South is "recon

Ai if a general effort were being made through

of temper:once, which_ 'Pao lot eight of almost
- entirely during the war. A State Temperance
Association has been formed, having among
its members some of the leading public men
at Harrisburg, sad auxilliary societies are
rising up with extraordinary rapidity in al
most every town. The friends of the cause
have taken bold of the matter in earnest, and
unless they repeat the mistakes of the past,
will not fall ,to exert. a most potential and
beneficial influence. It must be confessed,
however, thet there icon unfortunate tenden

of this literal towards carrying it to an ex
treme that is always certain to rebound
against any moral piovement in which theme
advice is allowed to prevail. Of our synapse

Whenever it has entered the domain of poli

nature. ' We are not of those who believe in

Men's appetite, can no more-be controlled by
law than their religion, their party lumps

who indulge in immoderate drink, they must
first be convinced 'of the evil effects of intern
parance, and when this cannot be' done by
moral or intellectual influences, it cannot be'
done by legal remedies. The severest - bilis
