their meeting on Friday cvcrring last, for the
appointment of delegates to the district Con-
vcntion, after the regular business had been dis-

enrolled themselves, was large, but it is hoped
it will be materially swelled at the next

W’/rig at least, should come forward and put his
shoulder to the wheel, not only to swell the
numbers of the club. but to add to its interest
and influence. The feeling manifested at the
‘OfgattIZ;llI0n, was of the right sort. Let it be
cherished and disseminated. far and wide, until
our friends shall be thoroughly arous:d.
It will ‘Je seen by a notice it; another part of
this paper, that the club will hold their first
meeting on Friday evening. 16th, at the Nor-

full and interesting meeting is exprcte l. Our
friends, and the friends of Henry Clay, getter
ally. are invited to attend.
Pm-;PuLLt~;Rs.—\Ve understand that our
enterprizing friends of Stamford are about pro-
viding the mselves with a "screw-tailed” vessel
for their market trade with New York. CODI-
Oliver Scofield is now engaged in building the
craft, which the Advocate inforrrts us is to_be of
one hundred tons burden, and ready for busi-
ness at. the opening ofspring.
This we presume will be found much better
business than building steatnboats—5O cents
* worth at,a time!
‘We believe there is some calculaltbn about
having one of these screw tails at this place in
the spring, and we believe also, that the time is
not far distant, when they will becotne as com-
mon as our ordinary sloops are at the present
time, and when they will be found In ever)’
harbor along shore. Tlte great advantage of
these vessels hold over the common sloop. is
that in embarking-—say for the city of New
York. the time of arrival may be estimated with
nearly the same precision. as in the case of a
steam boat. Should they thus go into general
use, they will undoubtedly do much to cut
down the profits of steam boating.

§Sccrct:n‘ies.
Glm-to-.\' \Vt:LLEs -—'I‘he Hartford Journal
recently published some very grave t:ltarges_
against Comptroller \Velles. The substance of
those charges was, that Mr. Welies, wlrilc
Post Master. we believe, did, in violation ofthe
laws of the United States. luau public moneys
in his possession, and put the interest to the
amount of some two or three hundred do7lurs,
into his own pocket. Such cltargt-s,pt;t forth
in a public manner, with so much explicitness
and boldness. have very ntittrrally excited pub-‘
lic curiosity, to know how they would be met by
Mr. \Vclles. Aliera rather long and painful
silence, M r. W. has been crtnstrsitted to make
his defence. And what is the nature of that
tlcfcttce? \Vhy, Mr. \Vclles writes a letter tr
I-Villiartt. Htrttgctforcl, Esq."\\lto is more in-
formed of my affairs than any other man.” to
say whether to Mr. I-Iongt-t'fortl‘s knowledge,
he, (.\Ir- VV.) had ever been guilty of illegally
loaning the public money. or of any immo‘ral
and improper conduct therewith. To this lullcr
Mr. I‘Il1ngCl'for(l, under date ofthe lst, rcplics
as follows:
"Dear Sir-—-In reply to your communi-
c.-.ti.~,tn of yesterday, [ can with plr-nsttrc
statc that I have never been zttvttre of any
thing in your private prcuniary rlt-alittgs, or
in your conduct in relation to the funds of
the Govcrnmeut under your control while
Post fV'l:.lSlt‘.t', or after your rt-movnl from that
office, which was f’lll'It“I' illegrtl, immoral,
improper, or fIt'l.fllflL‘fIl.7ll to the public inter-
cst, but on the contrary, to the best of my
knowlt-dqe and belief your corduct in all
the particulars rclerrcd to, has I‘-ecu strictly
legal and just.”
The public will be able to jutlge whether such
an exploit tion at all clfeects the cltarge, or ex-
honcralcs the Comptroller. Instead ufsut-lt an
elf:-ct, the axplauation goes to confirm the opin-
ion,that there has been a gross derclcctiun of
duty on the part ofthe ex I’n.-ttmastcr.
The. New Hotel at Stamford has been taken
by the proprielurofthe Firm tix Hotel, Dztubury
Mr. Osborrtc, at a rent ofsix hundred dollars.
Thtshotel. we believe is approacltittg com-
pletion. \Ve have not had an opportunity of
seeing it. bttt frequently hear of its elegant and
tasteful appearance. Our neighbor Stevens,
‘tlhepillar of_Democt-acy,” will show the world
next spring, what cart be done in Norwalk in
the hotel line. The frame for a new building,
to occttpy the site ofthe old,is out we believe,attd
ready to be put up as soon as the season is right.
\Vhc-n this shall have been completed. we
think we shall have a couple of pttblic houses,
\Vlllt,'II for external elegance and internal order
and comfort, will not be very far behind ottr
most favored neighbors.
, It\‘CRl.\'ItIARt'lSM-—-An attempt was made on
iTuesday night I-tSI.I0 fire the small build-
:ing adjoining Hooker's Market, occupied by a
family of blocks. The design was frustrated
by a scasouable discovery ofthe fire in a cellar
closet. cnkintlled in a cigar box, with locofoco
matcltcs, straw, and other combustible matter.
The incendiary is supposed to be a darky by
the name of Samuel Jackson, already sortie-
what known to famd’. As officers are on the
look-out, it may be for his wholesome to keep
himself scarce. ‘

While the 2lst rule, which excludes Aboli-
tion petitions, xvas under discussion. Wise
read the pr-tition irt his irresistibly comic
manner. A VVashingtou correspondent says‘
it is impossible to depict the scene which oc-
curred on \Vise’s reading this precious mor-
ccrtu. The roars oflttttghtcr were deafen-
ing; the ladies in the gallery joined in, and
the emphasis given by Wise on the words
“fatigue," "employment,” “night and day,’
threw many of the tuentbers into fits of
laughter.
