Tm-: VVEATHER.-—Dl]l'll1g a great part of last
week, fires indoors, and overcoats and rnirteps
out-doors,were very important :1(l_]tli1ctS to bodi .V
comfort. Frosts were frequent. and g“_“l"“S
sufiered seve,.t.]V_ In addition to all this, no
rain has fallenfor a length of time.’ and "'9§’el3'
tion ‘is suffering from the combined evils of
d'r‘otirrlit and cold, and our roads are covered with
5
..a most intolerable and smothering dust, while
our water coursesare nearly dry.
Loxo Tim: Aco.—A friend handed us some
‘ time since, the following scrap of an account
kept against this town, something over 50 years
ago. It was picked up among some old papers
thrown out in the course ofcleausing and repair-
ing the “old Gregory I-lciiise,” now owned and
occupied in part by Henry Selleck, Esq. near the;
Spring. It is known that this house under its
early proprietor Jabez Gregory, was a public
house, at which probably, these grave and reve-
rend fathers oftlie town, the Select Men, held
their business meetings. The document will be
found ofinterest in these jehu days of temper-
ance, from its peculiar pliraseology, as well as
from the nature oftlie items that compose it.-
“Nips of Grog,” and “bowls of tod-Jy” would be
ri'e'tv items in 3. bill against the town now-a-days
" l bill.

' s'r.irE- razsou REPORT.
life learn by the‘ Hartford Courant that the
Directors of the State Prison at Wetliersfield
have made a report to the Legislature, which‘
‘represents the condition oftlie institution to be‘
highly prosperous both in regard to its finances‘
and‘ its d'isci'pline. The number of prisoners‘
now in confinement is one hundred and ninety
seven. Fifty setzen have been received during
the last year. Forty seven dischargt-d, having
served cut their time.——three pardoned by the
General Assembly, and four have died. The
nt'i'rri’be'r of female convicts now iti confinement
is eighteen. .
It appears by the Report oftlié‘ VVarden, that‘
the‘ prison is free from debt, and that tli'e prohts‘
"of the institti'ti'on for the first nine irionths of the
year,‘ amounted to 6,173 39 dollars, and for the
last quarter to 2,128 54 dollars, making the profits
for me year 8,301 93‘dollars. . _
The liistitution is now under tlie'management_
of Elisha Johnson, Esqv, who was appointed
Warden of the State Prison" on tliéifirst of Janu-
my 135:, in the place of Amos Pillsbury, Esq.,
who has for several years held the office, Under‘
the rr'i'ar'i‘agei’n‘ent of the present \Varden, says
the Report, fliéniost perfect subordination has
prevailed in the pri'sor_i—"—tlie profits have in-
ére:isetl——arid: the liealth of the prisoners has
,5-vfi-de'ntl_'y improved, no death having occurred
for the last three months.‘ I _ _ . H
The Report contains som'e'statéin'eiits relative
to the management of the funds while in the
hands oftlie late V-Varden ofa censurable nature.
After making all dediucti'ot;is for losses actual
and Prospective. lhieinél earnings ‘lf ‘he l”‘5°"
since the year 1827, amounts to 85,135 97 dollars
..'_giving the sum of4,S64 90 dollars, as the
average annual profits of the prison since its es.
gabllshment at \Vethersfield.

1 ' f the Rev. Dr. Potter of Sche-
nei:Ifii1tli’yl:.1‘T.t.l'3(?.] iii the office of:Bisliop of Pennsyl-
R vania, is- considered acornplete triumph. of LOW
Church‘ principles.-
’ and their duties are laborious.
The committees of the Legislature are very
actively and industriously engaged in examining
the matters which have been referred to them,
One Comrhittiee,
yon 'l‘liursd-ay niglit, we understand, sat until after
'. midnight, and several of them are very constant-
ly occupied.
There are some subjects which will excite
,much interest, especially the Temperance ques-
_tiun, and the application for :1 Railroad, through
v'Danbury, &‘c. There is strong opposition made
before the ('ommiItee, in the Railroad case, and
the Temperance question is, we believe, made
‘the special order of the day for Tuesday the 2d.
This will be the exciting topic oftlie session—-
The next week will be one of crowded business
—some part of which will be full of interest to
the public.
'l‘wo different bills for the regulation of the
§s.tle of spirits, are before the Assembly, and are
both included in the special order in the par-
{agraph above, from the Courant. One of these,
bills substantially revives the old system of li-i
ceasing by the Civil authority and Selectmen,
l the law of '32 with some improvements. Ofthe.
‘character ofthe other, we are not itiformetl. It
istrikes us that the Legislature can do nothing
better in this matter, than to restore the law of
'39 placing lhc control oftlie subject in the hands,
of the towns, individually. There are peculi-l
arities iii the situation oftlie town which gt-tie-E
ral laws do not meet, and in these cases, such;
laws become either onerous or inoperative. If,
the power to restrain, do away entirely, or to;
grant licenses, is left with the towns, ottlie
electors oftlie towns, they knowitig their own:
wan s,» can take such action as those wants re-l
quire. We earnstly hope to see the old law
restortd, and are happy to learn that there is,
sortie prospect of its being done. Ofthe law of
’32 which has been reported to the Ht use, thei
New Haven Palladium says: “It may be til
popular law in souie parts oftite State; but this
way we hear nothing in favor c-f‘it from any
body. ltis supposed that its effect will be to
bring temperance directly into politics to the
confusion of both interests.
If“the little fellow oftlie Norwalk Gazette,”
should ever acquire any tolerable degree of size
and consequence, he will probably be compelled
toattribute it to the ‘weakly’ labors oftlie gigan-
tic intellect of the Farmer-man— an inlellecl"
which wait too much for the stupid democracy
to appreciate, and they are therefore lost to the
world both in the councils of the Nation, and;
the Custom House at Bridgeport. The stupid-
try oftlie party, however, does not crush every
zt'ssura'r ce ofgreatries_,s in our neighbor. A look
backward to the session of the Legislature du-
ring which the seat ofa new pair of Corduroys
were entirely destroyed, will bring the consoling
testimony that he is not the most irisigiiific-ant
specimen of humanity on earth, ears and “ass-
milk” to’ the contrary notwitlistanding; It is our
deliberate opiiiion, thatjustice sliould be done
to so much distinguished worth and wisdom.
And that a field should be opened for their ex-
ercise. We therefore timidly suggest, whether
neighbor Pomeroy should not, at the next city
meeting, be created Hayward General for the
“centre of Creation” with lateral jurisdic-
tion ovcr his democratic" relative over the way !
\Ve trust “His LaZltlP$S,.,.8S soon as his senato-
rial duties are’ ended, will give some attentioirto
this matter.
_ Chauncey S. Lockwood, of New Canaan, we,
tinders and, while laboring under abbcration of,
rnintl, attempted suicide on Saturday last, by?
Ayres. Suspicion havinglieen aroused that all
was not right, he was irnrnidiately looked after, 1
on being seen to enter the barn, and was cut
down before life became extinct, & was restored.

ANOTHER Race, came off between Fashion
and Peytona on the Camden course, on the 28th
at which Fashion was triumphant. The time
was not as good as at the previous trial, being
1'st heat, 7 47—2d heat, 7 58. , As the liorses
were drawn up in front of the Jutlgesfstand, pre-
vious to starting, the center” of the main staging’,
containing from 1200 to 1500 persons, gave way
dashing th‘os’é oh the upper part to the earth
with fearful violence, while those in the center
of the stand were crushed and maitned in the
most shocking i‘r'i‘anné't‘. Fortunately, there was_
an interval ofa few seconds from the first crash
which afforded those in the lower story, where
the liquors and refreshments are kept,to escape,-
otherwise the consequences would have bé’en
awful. The scene is describedas appalliag—-
the cries and groans oftlie wounded piercing the
ear at every turn.
Many were wountled, but none were killed
on the spot. The wounds ofsome are of such a
character that it is thought death must ensue.
The Prcsl)yteriaii—General Assembly have de-
cided by a vote of169 to 6, that baptism in th
Church of]-Iiomeis not valid. -
The Danbury Times says the genius of im-
provement is visibly at work upon the village.
I The old Episcopal church is in the progress of
‘demolition, and that old edifice which played so
iiiiportanta part in the scenes of the revolution,
as a store house for the provisions of the army,
the old meeting house, is also passing away,and
by the handjof improvement,willsoon be consign-
ed to oblivion.
For. THE FOURTH or JUt.v.—The Jubilee
number of the Pictorial double Brother Jonathan
is out and we have received a copy from the N.
Y. Publishers. Among some fifty or sixty fine
large National engravings which embellish its
columns, Washington’s recepti .n at Trenton
stands the most prominent. This great picture
occupies half ofone of the mammoth pages, and
is a magnificentspecimen of the art of wood en-
graving. The contents of the paper consists
principally of historical incidents, anecdotes,
songs, glees and romances of the revolutionary
war and of the last war, notices of remarkable
revolutionary characters, etc. It also contains as

A single glance at this week’s Banner, might
lead one to suppose a whole cage of monltieshad
been disturbed at once, but a second look will
convince any one, that all its chattering grim-
maces proceed from the old Baboon——the pedago-
gicaljoclro himself, whoswings his stick with in-
finite gusto, and on exhihi ion occasions, dons
his Blackweli’s Island plaid.
From the officious itidiscretion ofsuch friends
Mr. Bailey, (whose defender he assumes to be)
will very earnestly pray to be delivered. it is pro-
bable Mr. B. would manage his own case with a
great deal more adroitness and discretion, and
more to his own mind, tliana score of such short
sighted nincompoops. \Ve prefer to allow that
gentleman, if he sees lit, to make his own defence,
which lietiiay have the privilege ofdoingtlirougli
the columns that contained the charges against
him. The insinuate.-d charge is false, and
was known to be false when written, that
we knowingly took atlvaritage of Mr. B's ab-
sence in attendance upon the dying bed ofa near
relative.

The Tyler party are going overboard as fast

‘stand absolutely a better chance to retain their
ofiices, than thtse very Tyltr men who made
Polk President. \Vliatever else may be said of
it, this proceeding, on the part of Mr. Polk, looks
a little lils: iitgrtitittide. We do not object. On
the contrary we like to see these men who be.
trztyed us with John Tyler, meet their reward.
Tliey most richly deserve it—but to be sacrificed
by Mr. Polk——tlieres the rub. It was said last
summer that ifthese men would only vote the
Polk ticket, their old sins should be forgotten.
This was the bargain—but Niles and \Velles
have short memories. They have no offices to
give the conservatives, and they cannot forget
the Harrison fever, which once fired the veins of
these very Tyler men. The idea of their per-
mitting any, but a staunch Van Burenite to hold
an office,is to absurd. Our Postmastefs fate is
certain. All they are waiting for is too p'erinit
the New llaven storm to blow over—'§and then
postmaster‘ Pratt walks the planlt——antl 0
