The Free Soil Men of Connecticut, it would seem, hold the balance of power in the Legislature. Mr. Baldwin's term in the Senate will expire with this Congress, and a successor must be chosen by the coming Legislature, or the next succeeding one. Mr. Baldwin has proved himself an honest and able friend of Anti-Slavery principles; and he has never been wanting in his duty to the cause of Free Soil. We hope that the Free Soil members of the Connecticut Legislature will see to it that his place be filled by a man equally worthy and faithful.
