seated to do so, so inglorious a termina-
tion savors of the weak and the ridiculous.
When Lord John Russell threw up his
cards, there was no alternative but to send
for Peel ; and the most extraordinary move
in this drama of Cabinet-making 15. that he
felt aslitt-lc apparent hesitation in resum-
ing hisold office, as he evined promptness
in throwing it up. His resumption of
power immediately made itself felt in
every branch of trade. Confidence, which
had been shattered by the railway panic,
- became paralyzed when it was known that
Peel was out; the markets fell, the funds
sunk,business was suspended, and a gloom,
a mist, hung over the commercial and
trading world. These evils are fast sub-
siding with the causes which called them
into existence. Upwards of ten days have
elapsed since it became known that Peel
was again Premier; and every day has
shown improved symptoms in the produce,
share, money, and other markets. This

from the fact that his future policy is as,

tnuch a matter of speculation as the new,

comct—even more undefined, undcvclop-,
ed. Nobody knows what Peel will do,§
but every one has confidence in Pecl—ai
singular proof of the hold which one pow-i
crful mind has over the sympathies andj
the prospects of millions of people. he-l
London Examiner wittily observes, in re ’
erence to this prevailing feeling, “'The
beauty of the juncture is, that nobody
knows what Sir Robert Peel is going to
do, and yet every body is satisfied that he
is‘ the man to do rzobrdg /rnows '11‘/I/if.

The Cabinet resumes power with its per-
sonnel but slightly ‘altered. Changes there
have been, but they are few, and, with
one exception, unimportant. Poor Lord
\\'harncliffe, the President of the Council,
who died from the excitement produced by
the resignation of his colleagues, is to be
succeeded by the Duke of Buccleucli.——

l
r

of the Admiralty. The Earl of Haclding-
ton is to have tlie office of the Privy Seal,
which the Duke of Buccleuch filled. But
the most striking chan_q'e of the whole is
the resignatition of the Colonial Sc-cre‘ary
Lord Stanley, and the appointment of Mr.
VV. E. Gladstone as his successor.

Such a snow stoi'_11Ta_s:cldoin takes place of
a winter, visited this region last \Vednesday. It
commenced before day, and continued through
a‘ good part of the night, the elemental feathers
flying fast and wifltout cessation, and covered
the earth to at least a foot in depth-—prctty lev-
el, aud promising good sleighing, and the con-
sequent additional amount of life and merry-
ment; to the season. The weather up to this
present, Friday noon—l1as been since the storm
clear and cold; and the bells to-day, particular-
ly, keep a continual gingle, and our citizens are-
vigorously fulfilling the injunction “go it: while‘
you can.” '

The intensity, or density of the storm was’
such as to prevent the Trojan and Cataline from
making their passage up, after reaching Throgs
Neck, and taking a glimpse at the Sound, they
zthe Trojan taking lead—wind'e'd' and paddled‘
“bock agin.”

In this state of the case, some of our‘ citizens
took the" Harlem Railroad, but fared no better.
for the snow was so deep, that the train could
proceed no farther than lVilliams Bridge, where
the disappointed and discouraged wayfarers
put up for the night.

Among the latest rumors from \Vasl1ington,
is one to the effect that Senator Cass and Allen

thousand dollars. It is said that Fisk goes out?
and Dow remains; but that a Democratic Ed-

itor from the \Vest is to take charge of the col-

PAUPEIHSM IN MAss.—The Boston Times
publishes an abstract of pauper returns for the
year '45, prepared by the Secretary of the Com-
monwealth. Comprising all but 11 towns in the»
State. The whole number supported, or re-
lieved, either State-wise or Town-wise, is 39,.
309, at an expense of $301,360 60, the State
paying $50,168.

There are in the" State, 187 Atlms-houses
which have been tenanted by, during the year,
6,579 persons, 3,336 of whom were unable to
work, and were supported at an average expense
of 87 cents a person. The number supported
out of the Ams-houses, was 6,974, at an ex-
pense-——weekly average—-of 82 cts. The esti-
mated value of labor performed’ by the inmates
of the Alms-houses, was $521,691.

‘’ I I i 3 ’ llaw, to an extent that would not in all cases on-

pates a considerable influx of topers to that city,
about these days, induced by the summary ex-
cisionfif the tap, by the Commissioners appoint-
ed under the new license law of this‘ State. N o
considerable‘ alarm need be felt, we think, on
this ground. Our topers are not half so badly
off, as the Journal thinks. Tho remark was
made in our hearing the other day, by It ch:-ip
whose skin it would take something to fill, that
he should not like to be compelled to drink all
the c:r(lcm.'_1/,gtl1:1t; could be purchased in this
place. The remark was not without point and
application here, as well as in some other parts
ofthc State.

The operation of the law has proved as we
ft-arcd it would frcrn the beginning, that the
stzrcains ofinterperance would flow on, in many
~ places, without; interruption, if not with increas-
' ed power and rapidity. These fears arose from
an apprehension, that attempts would be made
to enforce obedience to the requirements of the

list the co-operation of the community—that
the C-onnnissioners might not act, in all cases,
with the foresight; ‘which the interests of tem-
perance required—and that a mis-step would
not; only render the law rugatory, but perhaps
induce greater excesses. \Vith all respect for
the intelligence and intentions of the Board in
this, as well as some other towns around us, our

‘apprehensions are being realized. The Com-

missioners have gone to the full extent of the
law, in tlic discharge of their duty. The con-
sequence was a little hesitation by some, at first,
and then, an entire disregard of the law. The
sluices are again opened,and in the hope of heap-
ing the utmost contempt upon the action of the
ministers of the law, and the law itself, its viola-
tions are more frequent than the actual demands
of appetite, while some who were willing to
array themselves on the side of restzraint, are
encouraged by what they look upon as a failure,
to take ground against what will now be con-
sided as ultra and extreme action.

The sale, we believe, has been generally rc-
sumcd in this place, in New Canaan and to
some extent, in Stamford and \Vest-port, and hav-
ing commenced, will, in all probability continue
to as great an extent, at least, as formerly. So
that nothing has been gained by the operation
of the law. There are undoubtedly some in-
stances where public sentiment was ripe for the
full cfie1'cise of the extreme provisions of the
law, in which cases the effect will be well. In
the instances to the contrary, however, which
we have cited, it is to be regretted that the re-
sult could not have been seen from the begin-
ning, and such medium steps taken, as would
have led to a gain on’ the former state of things.
In the city ofBridgcport, we are‘ informed, the
taverns were licensed to sell by the glass, and
the grocers by the measure only, and the ar-
rangcment is approbated and sustained. Could
we have made a similar stand here, there would
have been something gained, and the way would
still have been open for further advance, as pub-
lic feeling advanced, and would give its sanction.
As it is, tl1e game has been played out aéa dash,
and proving an unfortunate one,.there is noth-
ing to fall back upon——all is irretrieveably gene-
These are our sentiments, and we‘ believe they

are founded, however disagrceably, upon facts.

‘E-§’\Ve have received a short sermon, deliv-
ered in a neighboring town, on the duties, we
believe, of temperance men. As it reached

for future perusal and consideration.

EFBy the latest news from Texas it appears
that the Houston and Jones party has succeed-

IV/r'r'rs COMSTOCK, Esq. of New Canaan
has communicated to us some information which

we think may be ofinterest tothose of our road-

stock. Rather late the last season he prepared
a pie'ce of ground, 24 rods in measurement, and
sowed it with carrots of the white field species.
The season was unpropitious and many of the
seed failed, yet the‘ product was 5.700 bushels of
exellent carrots, which his cattle eat with great.
avidity, leaving potatoes, sugar beets, and tur-
nips for this nutritious and productive root.——
Undcr-more favorable circumstances, the crop
would have been materially increased. Is not
such information worth experimenting upon.

which weighed 555 pounds.

for saying that Isaac Toucey is a "federalist of

IVIIAT .'llALL BE DONE ?
Tho loco press of the State is troubled with

a very strong disrelish for the ‘\Vhig candidate
for Governor. Yet the sum of opprobrium and
abuse which it, in its zeal for decrying, has
sought to fasten upon him, hath this extent—-
This is a
rather vague and unsubstantial charge——particu-
larly when we consider, that it is a stereotyped
one in the mouth of locofoism—ever resorted to
in the absence of something more real and defi-

nothing more :—]zc is a fcdcrali.s't.

nite. Its application to a candidate for office, is
the best evidence that can be drawn from the
party, that his moral and political character is
above reproach, which is emphatically the case
with Judge Bisscll. Their greatest objection
to him, we presume, is his strength as a candi-
date. They see in his nomination the signal
for their utter defeat, and the consequence is,
they are very unhappy. Poor follows, we must
bear vri-tli them‘, and treat them with the mag-
nanimity which should ever be exercised toward
a powerless and prostrate foe.

\Vl-IO IS ISAAC TOUCEY?

The Times answers this question.

“About four years since, he came into this
town from Fairficld County, and opened his of-
fice as a young federal lawyer. He called upon
a number of the oldest and most. thorough going
federal lawyes in town, to whom he had let-
ters, and positi-vcly and unreservcdly declared
us politics to be FEDERAL OF THE
FIRST IVATER.”

\Vhile the \Vhigs hail their nominations with 

‘the highest notes of approbation, the locos are:

uarreling among themselves about the unpopu- 
larity and federalism of theirs. Such a quarrel %
few will regret, unless it should fail‘ in its imita-l
tions of the Kilkenny grimalkins. ‘

I'rALY.—]lI2'lan, Dec. 26.—The great evcutsj
in Italy of late, have been the movements of theE
Emperor of Russia. The‘ principal thing has}
been, that he has had in interview with the;
Pope in which the latter addressed him in terms,
of strong remonstrance against; the cruel and,
abominable treatment of Catholics in Russia,and‘
particularly in Poland. Nicholas is represented"
to have been much moved by the contest man-l
nor of the‘ venerable‘ old Pope, to have protested‘,
his ignorance of the brutal tyranny that hnd
been exercised in his name, and to have promis-
ed to punish by exile to Siberia the persons guil-
ty of it, should he find, on investigation, that the
Pope’s statciiieut was correct.
\VI-IITE DAISY.

In the summer of IS37, we observed for
the first time, in a field of ten acres, about
five ‘completely covered with the white
daisy——so much so that no domestic ani-
mal which we raise would graze among
them, or even look for grass where the,
daises grew. They were mowed off that’
summer, but apparently to no purpose.—
The next spring as soon as the grass had
started, we turned about one hundred and
twenty wethers and yearling lambs into
the field, and kept them as long as there
was anything green to be seen, when they
were driven out until the daises and grass
had again started up, when they were put
back and the daises eaten off. We cou-
tinued to change them‘ in and out of that
field’ throughout the summer—our object
being to keep the ground where the daises
grew as bare as sheep could be made to
gnaw it. The end of this is, that there
has not been a daisy there since. \Ve
‘would recommend to those who are trou-
bled with the daisy, to use their sheep,
_.(if they have any) not only for the zom-
fort of themselves and families, but for

pearance in the spring, and so many of
them as to cut all clean in- t-wo- weeks or
less, when they may be changed into‘- an-
