1?” \Vl1en the cit.izens of this town voted to
gi'ant’the'petition of certain individuals to grade‘
the road running over the brow of Mullen Hill,
they did “so in good faith, supposing that the sub-
ject came properly within thejurisdiction ofthe
town. ‘They supposed that. highways made
publicby some halfa century of common use, I
and workedat the expense of the town, and
regularly entered upon record, were proper sub-
jects for town action. This seems also to have
been the view of the petitioners. \Vere it not so
---had the town no authority over the subject,
those petitioners mightas well have petitioned
John »Doe,or his next frien(l,Ricliard Roe,for the
privilege of grading said read. If this public
road was indeed, as the parties alluded to ap-
pear to have considered it when t.he vote was
taken, it would be somewhat interesting to know,
a Bridge across the river Thames, which has
hitherto produced iuucli excitement, I learn has
been withdrawn. And that they will now pc-
tition the Geiieral Assembly of this state, for a
Railroad to \Villimantic. The petitions of sun-
dry citizens of Fairfield co. vs. the N. Y. &. N.
H. R. R. Co., I understand will be laid aside in
consequence of certain informalities on the part
‘of the petitioners. I
Many matters of importance are on the dock-
'et, and will be brought forward soon -—and how
long before this matter will be disposed of, so
as to allow an adjournmeiit, is more than I can
guess, Yankee as I am.

petitioners are allowed, after unseating every
one else froiu it, to squat upon, and appropriate
it to their own use and benefit.’ The good peo-
ple of the neighborhood, as well as the great
proportion of our citizens who make no preten-
sions to slight of hand trickery, cannot under-
stand liow this change has been juggled about.
To obtain seine light upon the subject, the se-
lect-ineii of the town have been desired to look
a little into the matter, and if; the thing could
be done without oxposiiig them to an undue ex-
ercise ofcncrgy or responsibility, to prevent said
read from being so appropriated, to the injury
both of the public and individual interests. How
far they have yielded to these wishes, and if
we mistake not, instructions of their constitu-
ents, we are not very fully informed. \Ve un-
derstand, however, that they have forbidden the
erection of a wall that has been commenced. in-
closing some portion of said read. But no heed
has been taken ofthis, and the work still goes
on. To secure some further action to meet the
case, we notice a call has been made for another
town meeting, to take place on W'ednesday of
the present week, at 4 o’clock, P. M. The
particnliir object of the meeting as stated in tli_e
call, is to appoint a coinmiffcc to remove the en-
croachment as it is now beginning to be consid-
ered, and we suppose upon the action of that
meeting will depend, the decision of the ques-
tions,does this road indeed belong to the St. John
property before which it runs, as it is modestly
claimed, and whether that claim shall be made
good by inclosiiig and occupying said read in the
manner in which has been attempted. As this
is a question of seine importance, and in which‘
the community a1'e vitally interested, we hope
there will be a full meeting ofthe town, and the
matter fully weighed, and some efficient and
decisive steps taken to remove the nuisance in
question, and establish a precedent that shall
have influence in deterring similar encroach-
iiients in time to come.

I’IAR'X‘!-‘ORD, Friday, 3 P. M. June 4th, 1847.
Friend Reed :-—Tlie city of Hartford, al-
though an interesting place at all times from its
delightful location and charming scenery, from
its public institutions, and the liigli-toiied moral-
ity, and well known magiianiinity of its citizens;
and last, though not least,1lie interesting histor-
ical associations with which it stands connected ;
is peculiarly so at this time, while the Legisla-
ture is in session, and so many important inter-
ests are pendant upon the action of the same.
Many an anxious face may be witnessed at
presentin, and around the capital. ‘ The differ-
ent Committee rooms are swarmed with crowds
ofindividuals, re_riresenting different interests.
The ‘Log-rollers’ as they are called, may be
seen in knots, in the Capitol, on the corners of
the streets, and in almost every boarding house.
Behind the curtain the knowing ones are pul-
ling the wires, while the honest: representatives
of the people, are endeavoring to move on the
machinery of Government. Hitherto, the ac-
tion lias been quite harmonious, but now and
then, the old engine queaks; and will not move
——or, if it does move at all, moves rather slowly.
But some skillful engineer is always at hand,
to relieve the painful and irritating friction by
pouring on oil, and on she goes again.
The Senate, (being an inferior bod;/,) attracts
lint little notice. But the “House,” where the
.Peo17lc, are more iimiiediatcly represented,
presents many scenes of curious interest. At
times, business goes on so quietly, and so ino-
uotonously that some of the members may be.
seen nodding in their scat;-:, and yawning for the
want of their dinners, when anon, we are all
aroused, by some sudden burst of eloquence, or
convulsed bysuccessive flashes of wit and
humor.
Few exciting topics however, have as yet
come before the House. But as the committee's
reports are beginning to crowd the Speaker’s
table, we may soon anticipate them.
\VhileI am writing, Mr. Hungorford is ma-
king his grcat speech, before the Railroad coin-
mittee in relation to the Bridge accross the
Connecticut River at Middletown. Bis speech
will conclude the arguments on that subject,
before the committee.
Judge Parsons made the opening argument,
Mr. Catlin followed in a very able and eloquent
speech yesterday. He was succeeded by
Gen. Kimberly who spoke for seine tliree_ or
four hours, and now comes Hungerford, who
will doubtless lose nothing in point of reputation
by this exercise of his great. legal ability. The
testimony in this case has been so voluminous,
(more than 60 witnesses have _l_ieen examined on
one side alone) that it is not probable that the
committee will be able to report, before the
middle of next week. \Vheii this case, shall
be again disposed of, a mountain load will have
fallen from the Legislature of this state.

,' inand the united support of the \Vliigs. The
I Locofoco candidates are ratzher better, and will
without doubt be elected. I pity the voters.
They have a hard duty to perform. They are;
compelled to elect Judges, but the privilege Oftllli
election is virtually denied them. Men ought‘
not to be required “to make brick without
straw.” That surely cannot be Democratic.’
The candidates for the other City Courts are
far more reputable simply because the salaries

didates in other parts of the State.
ent appearances I should tliiiik that two \Vliigs
and two Locofocos would be elected Judges of
the Court of Appeals---the higlicst Court under
the new dispe.ns:itiou.' It is impossible howev-
er to iuake a very accurate “guess.” The vote
will be liglit, lllltl the [)(-Bl'S()El:tl popularity ofthe
caiulidato and local causes will have considera-
ble inflnoiice upon the result. Besides,oui' elec-
tions have been so frequent, that the people are
getting tired of voting. Those living nca rest to
the polls will vote, but the people generally take
little iiitcrcst. in the els.-ction They only put
fortli their strciigth when _!:-"I‘C’(1ll _]7rf)I(Tl_[If£’S are
to be decided, or wlicn Supervisors and Consta-
bles, Mayors and Aldermen are to be chosen.
It could liardly be expected that they should
trorble themselves about the election ofJu(/_grcs.
But enough on this suliject and ii word on
"‘ziurc‘.'i inattors.
The doings of the Methodist Conforercc
wliicli closed its annual session in this‘ city last
week do not seem to meet with the general lip-
proval ofthe Church. The suspension of 11,0
Rev. Mr. Green has produced no little exci1«,,_

and .suspendc-‘cl from his ministerial ft1n(~fi0n5 for
one yfiear. "Ibo Ccntennaiy Cllllrch in which
Mr. Green had been presiding the past year,
immediately seccded from the Conference and
called him as their Minister. He ,,cm,,md the
call, and last Sunday occupied the Pulpit, to the

iimioiiited by the Conference. One, other
Church in Brooklyn and four in this city have
i-pfiised the preaclicrs appointed and claim the
rig'nt_of appointing their own ministe.rs.. The
question will therefore be. soon sotfied, I was
informed by an influential member ofthe Meth-
odist Church the other day. that tl1l‘(>.r‘.—f0l1‘l'l”llS
of that denomination were in favor of the Con-
;zi'eg€1f—i0n.'il form of G0v(>.riiinent_ He said it
would soon come to that. The people were
determined to be the fzoverningz power in the
C-nurcli as well as the State. This is an evi-
deuce ofthe Democratic tendencies of these
days. '
It is proper to state here that cliarges had
been preferred against Prof. Maftitt in this city
and before the trial he was received as :1 member
oftlm Centennary Church, and demanded to be
tried there. This wasthe origin of the difficulty.
Prof. M———-—— is now in Pittsburgh, but is soon
expected ‘in Brooklyn, where his young wife is
now stiiyiiig.
The Odd Fellows “with music and banners”
are now parading the streets in large numbers.
The iinirmdinte occasion (if this large gathering
is tlielayiiig the corner stone of ailarge Hall
about to be built. by that order. on Grand street.
They make a very imposing display certainly,
but then, one is tempted to as-k,why cannot. they
appear in a. plain citizens dress I The Hon.
\Villie P. Magnum, the distinguisliecl Senator
from North Carolina was expected to be present,
but he was unavoidably detained home by sick-
ness. Iflie had come he would have received
a cordial welcome, certainly from the Whigs.
Mr. \Vcbster has been in the city for three
or four days past. His reception at the South
must have been gratifying to him, and it is a
source of regret to all his friends here that he
could not have coiitiiiued his journey. He
would have won golden opinions from the gen-
i erous, warm—heart ed Soutliei'ne.1's. They have
ilollg known his intellectual strength, they had
lkiiown hiiii as a statesman, but they did not
‘know him as a citizen and a man. Some were
: foolish enough as to suppose that he had a polit-
;ical object in iiiakingtliis tour. But Mr. \Veb-
lster would never go to the South for political
linfluence. It is only as the Reprcrentative of
5Nort.liern principles that he _can hope for any
higher station. He is a Northern man in
lthought and feeling. His greatest oratorical
displays have been iuade while defending
the North,and especially New England, against
‘the assaults of her enemies. He has no sympa-
‘thy with Southern principles. His opinions
are on record, and it is foolish to suppose that
I he expected by a brief tour through the South-
: crn states to ‘change the current of popular opiu-
'ioii there. respecting his principles and his acts.
5' This-has been an exciting week with New
I Yorkers. On 'I‘ucsday, the great race between
‘the Oregon and Cornelius Vanderbilt came off,
and furnished employment for all the sporting,
or rather betting characters. The Oregon was
the winner, beating the Vanderbilt about two
minutes in running eighty miles. The whole
distance was‘run in 3 hours, 20 minutes. It is
said that m re than $100,000 changed hands on
this race. Vell, perhaps it was worth that sum
to settle the difference of speed between the two
boats. I cannot decide such a question.
Then the new steamship Washington sail-
ed for Bremen on the the same day. This
event might well interest the citizens of this
commercial city. It is a great enterprise and
the first of the kind in which Americans have
engaged. There is no doubt ofits success. It
is confidently prerlictcd that the VVas-liington
will make better time on her first voyage than
the Boston Steamers.
