THE GREAT wHIG VICTORY IN CON- [
NECTICUTi is thus no ticed in.the New York
Express:


The Wings of New York were yesterday elec- |
tri6ed by the returns from Connecticut. Itwas
a great battle ground, where the fortunes OF
Henry Clay were first to be staked among the
New England people, and all eyes, therefore,
In surrounding States. were Eturned upon this
battle ground, to be Waterloo for one or the
other party. Tne Locofocos were in power
there. Theremost popular man was up for Gov
ernor. The State patronage was theirs. The
Abolitionists were their allies. They lodged
all principles and clung only to power Gori-
ously then, have the Wings discontinued them,
Eedeeming their own State, and thus saving, we
trust, the Senate of the United States, to the
Whig party, and for the administration OF Henry
Clay,


Seldom or never have the Locofocos conducted
a contest in so rascaily manner, as in Connee-
ttent. In the first place, they have no where
manfully defended their Free Trade principles,
but have constantly attempted to deceive their
party respecting them. They were tariff men,
when vote to be gained by it, and they
were Free Trade men where there was popu-

Clay, the distinguished posts he has SLED, the
long continued devotion of his own State, could
NOT preserve him from a recklessness of assault
unparreed in the annals of politics, unless II
be in the assaults upon Gen. Harrison, "the
drunkard - ssthe sot,'' s'the foo,' .'the de-
baucheen of 1910. These falsehocds, however

Puritan Commonwealth can hardly comprehend
case in which a duel can be excused. Many

where if a man lives at all he must live with

men OF Albany, of Richmond, where do yo'

where they were in 1840-sound, ineorruptible

where. and when you intend to begin. Her
you are on the eve of your great National Cor

had in 1910, and not one more State to stal
with than you had then, nay minus the strengi
