~ Yes, S; you shall have the explanation.
IN The first place, the Population OF Connecticut
$ Z mos, entirely nativc-born, home bred home
keeping, and so all the Male Adults entitled to
yoic. In such a population, the proportion ol
Male Adults is fully one in five, or b2, 600 IN
population Of 10000 We presume the Legal
Voters OF Connecticut are lust about $4,000.


Ia this City, ON the other hand, very LaToe
part OF our Population is alien, end ., not entitled
To vote. We presurn.-- nle Aliens are at no time
less than onef fifth OF our People. Then there Is
every year large class OF new. corners here, who
have not get become entitled to vote. There
wlIl always be many more Of these IN a great
City rapidly increasing IN population, than IN an
old State which gans but 10000 in ten years.
fhen there Is always a large proportion OF our
Male Adults absent as sailors, whalemen, com
msrca travellers, sc. The honest legal vote Of
New York City can never be nearly 50 great in
proportion as that Of Connecticut; and IN ! s 10
we had Registry here, and little chance for Ilic
gal Voting. But for that, we should doubtless
have had 5,000 more votes, by dInl Of perjury.


Why does not our correspondent compare the
Vote and Population Of Connecticut, d Wing
State, with that of Loco. Foco State Of similar
character as to Population and Voters-for in
stance, New. Hampshire The result would be


Population. Total Vote Ratio
Connecticut. 3l0, 379 $685. ] voter in ) !
N Hampshire 2S4 ,O36 j9,9l9 a


That is to say New Hampshire, with 26,o43
tess population than Connecticut, gave 2034
moro votes. Is not tina, plain matter Con-
nect!cut gave 6,305 majority for Harrison, New
Hampshire 6,603 for Van Buren, SO that the ee.
mcn;s of comparison are as exact as could be de-
slrcd And we have gone through the State by
towns, and observed that, while The Harrison
towns III New. Hampshire. did not average IS
voters to 100 inhabitants, the strong Van Buren,
towns polled as many as % votes to 100 inhablt-
ants. These are facts.
