E?‘ The locofoco Presses are attempting to
lie down the fact. that. their candidate for Gov-
ern'_or is ii renegade federalist. So they did in
the case of the present Governor, although in; , , _
' itropolas and Albany than this, especially as the
doing so they had to eat their own assertions.
That is locofocoisin all over.

It sticks at notli-
'\Vell. it may use that plea with some color and,‘
force, for never was such a plea so applicable to;
any individual either in 1812 or at the present‘
time, as that ofiofizncy, when applied to T. T.l
\Vhi'.tlesey. The man has not energy of (‘.l]:ll'-l

The Register repeats the villainous falsehood
which we suppose it will, together with the
whole kennel that take their cue from it, contin-
ue to do, that Judge Bissell was opposed to the
war of 1812, while the fact is indisputable, that,
he volunteered to defend his country in tliatii
memorable struggle, and while those who stood I
with him in guarding the shores of this towii, are ,
now living in our midst. That. he is opitos-ed to ,

THE BRIDGE QUESTION.
Agreeably to the call published in our last, the
citizens of this town assembled attzhe Town Hall
the appointment of Ifcnrry Selleck, Esq. Chair-
man, and John. A. I4/'ced, Esq. Clerk. A Com-
mittee to draft resolutions expressive of the sen-
timents oftlie meeting was appointed, consisting
of Levi Clark, James Reed and Eli B. Bennett,
who reported the following resolutions, which
were unanimously adopted :
ll/'hcrcas, the Bridge in the center of the vil-
lage of Norwalk does not, and cannot, in its
present condition, satisfy the wants ofthe public,
but on the contrary, from its insufiicient. width
the travel over it is neither safe or coiniiiodious,
and foot passengers especially are often put to
inconvenience and even hazzard, in cross-
ingjit, and whereas to leave it longer in its pres-
ent condition would be detrimental to the inter-
ests of this community, therefore
Be it Resolved, That it is the imperative duty
of the inhabitants of the town of Norwalk to
provide, in some way, a speedy arid adequate
remedy for this evil, without infringing upon the
rights or impairing the property of of any one.
Resolved, That we the inhabitants of the
town of N orwalk, at this meeting assembled.
will individually and collectively use our best
endeavors, and furnish every means in our pow-
er, pecuniary and otherwise, towards the accom-
-plishment of the before mentioned object.
Resolved, That a committee of five be ap-
pointed of this meeting to confer with the Con-
necticut Turnpike .Co. and others interested,
upon the subject, and obtain their consent, and
if possible their assistance in and to the under-
taking, to ascertainvvhatis the most feasible plan
that can be adopted in the premises, and the
probable expense of such plan if carried out,
and to report to an adjourned meeting one week
from this time.
The Committee was appointed as follows :
J. A. Weed, Asa E. Smith,
James Reed, Stiles Curtis,
‘ Wm. K. James.
The meeting adjourned to Wednesday eve-
ning of the present week at half past 7 o’clock.

Contrary to my expectations the jury found
Russ guilty of murder. No one questions the
correctness of the verdict. The jury in that;
case were away from their fa inilies and business
twelve days, and for this received what might be
called no compensation. There is no service
more onerous than that performed by jurors in
this city, and at the same time it is almost with-
out 1'eward. Twelve men are called in to de-
cide upon a controversy between A and B and
after spending 3 or 4 days in investigating the
matter in dispute and deciding upon the facts of
the case, receive 12 1-2 cents each for their
services! It is strange that this State which is
so liberal in paying public officers, should suffer
this injustice in the ca se of jurors in this city.

greater effort is not made to secure the services

We have had beautiful weather for a few days
