THE CONNECTICUT ELECTIONS.
Democratic Victory.

Connecticut Elections—Democratic Majority.
Hartford, April 3.—The election is progressing quietly. This is a disagreeable, rainy day. The greenback men are polling considerable of a vote here. The chances are against an election by the people. Hartford City gives Robinson, Republican, 3260; Ingersoll, Democrat, 3936; Atwater, greenback, 167; Smith, temperance, 20; Ingersoll's majority, 513. Last year his majority was 1201. Fourteen other towns give Robinson 2803; Ingersoll, 3194; Atwater, 119. Smith, 24. The same towns last year gave Greene, Republican, 2674; Ingersoll, Democrat, 3322; Smith, temperance, 193. Republican gain in these towns and in Hartford city, 894. Sixty towns including Hartford give Robinson 15,733; Ingersoll 17,668; Smith temperance 492; Atwater, greenback, 416. The same towns last year gave Green 15,607; Ingersoll 18,649; Smith, temperance 894; scattering 6. So far as heard from the Republicans have gained 11 Representatives and the Democrats 14. Seventy-one towns give Robinson 17,342, Ingersoll 19,540, Smith 570, Atwater 420—a Republican gain of 1155. Gov. Ingersoll is no doubt re-elected by the popular vote, and the Legislature is Democratic. Norwich, April 3.—Five towns show a slight falling off in the total vote from last year, with no apparent change in proportion. The indications are that Waite, Republican, is elected to Congress over Wells, Democrat, by a good majority.
