of retrenchment in something like this form :
‘ ’Rc.soli:ea’. As the entire resources of the Gov-
ernment have been for the last‘4 years alt‘ogetlr-

the public credit has been preserved with the ut-
most difficulty, the treasury being empty and

force upon them the most rigid economy as.thc

Tun R1-‘.CEP’1‘lt)N—-Tl'le Napoleon was met
at the Oltl \Vell on \Vednestlay last by a large
number of otrr citizens. accompanied by the
band. After a few moments detention at the
landing, sli'e cast tiff and was escorted to the
Bridge, where the people turned oirt err mass to
receive her, and collected in inultiiudes on the
wliarves. Amid huzzas. the strains of ti'rtisic
anti the booming of artillery. the tlupolcou and
her gentlemanly corumautler were welcomed . s

On touching the wharf, Capt. Hanr.-ox arltii'css-
ed the asscoilily Jo a brief anti appropriate

.30 afi‘.,rd a relief to the couiiiitiuity froiii the
tyratiny anti imposition to which they had been
so long subjected. if the people Wttllltl “MY bf‘
true to their own interests. He alluded to the
handbill of the Fairfield, s'he having left New
1 York that morning, avowedly for the purpose of
running at the same time, and touching at the
same places as the Napoleon. at a sliilliuga
passage, evidently to drive the N. from the
route. After being introifticctl to many of our
own. and the citizens of adjoining towns. Capt
Hancox returned to the Old \Vell, ‘where after
taking on boartl nearly or qiiiie all the freight
and passengers, she departed amid the cheers
ofthe bystanders, while the lone and deserted
Fairfield followed in her wake accompanied by
the groans anti hisses of an indignant people,
smarting under the infliction of recent anti long
continued injuries. it is matter of satisfaction to
see our population actuated by one mind on this
subject, and that asettled determination to stick
by the Napoleon notwithstanding the slrilling
pzzssage ofthe Fairfieltl.
\Ve trust that the Napoleon will not be neg-
lected bv the friends of justice 8c the rights ofthe
people, at Slurriforti, Rocky Neck, 8:. Port Ches-
ter landiugs. They have felt the lash as well as
we. anti it is to behoped that they will now set
their faces against those \\ ht) have laid ll 0"
without stint or mercy. The Citlzfitts Of P0“
Chester have taken a r_ioble stand, anti p'.etlgerl
to Capt Haiicox their support.
Aside from principle’. in this t1l(lltel‘,lfElVf‘lf.’l'-S

conveniences and comfortsihan any boat on the

and fitted tip with much neatness.antl with re-
gzrrti to pleasantness anti comfort.
Firt.t:s.——\Ve neglected to mention last week
that a fire broke out on Sunday morning, the
?'ili inst. about 3 o'clock, in the store of Horace
Taylor, Old \Vell, whit.-li entirely destroyed the
building and goods, together with the effects of
Mr Henry More, whose family occupied the
second story. Mr. Taylor was insured mi the
building to the amount of -3300. it: the Hartforil
Mutual. The loss, we untlerstantl frills pecti-
ll-‘lily heavy, both on Mr Taylor antl Mr More.
Mr. Taylor is a cripple, and realized a scanty
support not of the store, which containetl, if we
are rightly informed. the sum of his earthly
possessions. His friends are seeking from the
community the means of enabling him to re-
suuie his business. that he may meet the wants
of a somewhat numerous family. \Ve cums
mend both these uulortunates to the benevolence
of the community.
Another fire occurred on_ Sunday morning
last. between 12 and 1 o'clock, in the Client-
ical establishment ofMartin Kallifleisch. ofihis
town, which was almost entirely consumed.
with a considerable amount of goods nearly
ready forimarket. No iosurant-e—loss about
$2,000.
Do the Captains of the olti steamboats think
to frighten the community out of their determin-
ation to sustain the Napoleon by boasting that
they will run the N. oli'antl then make the people
pay fortheir attentions to her to the ttine ofa
$1 50 or $2 for a passage to New York ? \Ve
ha.ve no doubt but their intentions are good
enough, but their p'ophetic genii is swivel eyed.
Of a piece with the above is the sltrr, that
“the pr-0'ple of Norwalk have been bought for a
shilling, and can be again.’-’

the first inquiries in all appointments of honor,
trust or profit, to be. “is be honest. is be capable,
is be faithful to the constitution 27" that we re-
commend the tlisconiinuance of that abuse of
our liberties which has increased during the last
12 years to an alarming extent, the appointment
of tnembers of Congress in offices in the control
ofthe Executive. further than the appointment
ofliis cabinet ; that we are in favor of but one
term for the Prcsitlerit, that he may during that
