Dear Gazette :—The State Normal School
for the education of ‘Teachers, was opened in,
this village, yesterday. Although the weather
was somewhat unpleasant, we were honored
with the presence of many distingushed indi-
viduals who have labored zealously to establish
such an Institution. Among them was
Mr. T. H. Gallaualelte the pioneer in the. cause
of the education of Teachers; Mr. Francis
Gillett, President of the Board of Trustees;
Prof. Andrews, author of the Latin Grammar
and Reader; Mr. II. Barnard, Superintend-
aut of the Common Schools of the State and
Principal of the State Normal School ; Rev.
Zlfr. Stone, Associate Principal, etc. etc. There
were present 27 teachers as pupils in the Nor-
mal School representing about every corner of
the State. Aftera few opening remarks by
.Mr. Barnard, Mr. Gallaudette addressed the
school upon the subject of English Composi-
tion. His remarks were charact.eri7.ed by that
-clearness of thought and simplicity, and beauty
of expression, which distinguish him as a
-speaker and writer.
;}’So long ago as the year 1824. Mr. Galla-
" ette first conceived the plan of a Normal
School for Teachers, in a series of essays pub-
lished in the Conn. Observer. These essays
-inade such an earnest appeal to the public
mind, that the interests of the community
-seeuied to be aroused as from a trance. They
were published over and over again and circu-
lated throughout the United States. Meetings
began to be called, lectures were given, and
the importance ofsuch an institution began to
show itself boldly. But though the idea was
first conceived in Connecticut, yet other States
caught the spirit and took t.lie lead in carrying
it out. She seemed content with the honor of
sowing the seed, while her sisters reaped the
fruits thereof. But Mr. Gallaudette has been
-spared to see his brilliant plans realized in his
own State, mid how fit that his voice should
‘awaken the first echo in this Institution—that
his venerable counsel should fall first upon the
ears ofthe assembled teachers.
The inhabitants of New Britain with a mag-
naiiimity almost unprecedented have placed
about twelve thousand dollars at the disposal of
the State Normal School. The schools of the
village have been put under the charge of Rev.
Mr. Stone, who has divided them into a High
School of about one hundred and fifty pupils
and three =primary schools of about fifty each,
making in all three hundred children under his
superint-endence.ubesides the Normal School.
But he has been Principal ofthe Massachusetts
State Reform School, where culprits and State
Prison candidates have abounded, and this, he
says, is play for him. The schools are intend-
ed as .the fields for practice _.for the Normal
rSCl]Oli1l'S.
The thing will work 'well——there is no -such
‘word as “ min” in our vocabulary. Think
what an -effect the close proximity of seventeen
steam engines must have upon the spirits;
-then too, the rushing. f-'earless, go-a-hendative- '
ness of a locomotive li-issing through ourvillage
every hour. \Vhy, sir, the spirit of emulation
and advancement is instillled into the very
hearts of the inhabitants of New Britain, and
every visitor must catch the influence.
New Britain is really a. wide-awake, busy
village. In another letterI may give you some
description of the factories and other features
which distinguish this thriving place. I believe
the inhabitants have -applied for a borough
charter and no doubt it will be granted. The
Normal School will have a marked efiect upon
the morals ofthe people and its character and
standing will become identified with those of
the village. Yours, P.
They are eutwining a wreath of laurel
round their brows more unfadiiig and more to
be desired than ever encircled that of the most
successfull _and fortunate of earths warrioi's——
. a wreath which will not fade, without stain up-
on, or the groan of a boiidman in it; it will grow
brighter as ages pass for the smile ofGod is up-
on it.——Gov. Clez:elanal’s Speech.
The idea of a wreath with a groan in it is
so new, and so peculiarly beautiful, that We
cannot pass it over without extracting it for
the next boquet of rhetorical flowers com-
piled for the benefit: of our School Reading
books. -
g E? VVe learn that Judge Church, before
whom the case of Mrs. Jarvis Lyon, for a di-
vorce, was tried, has decided in her favor, with
an allowance of $5.000 alimony. The children
two daughters, between 12 and 15 years ofage,
are given into the care and keeping of Mr.
Lyon, the father.
Scliiccsl Connnissioneir7s Report.
The Commissioner coincides with the
late commissioner in the opinion that the
State ought not to be a permanent debtor to
the Fund, and recommends that the debt be
paid by a transfer ofbank stock to the fund.
The new commissioner appreliends that the
high rate of dividends. heretofore paid by
Mr. Beers cannot be sustained without a
contingétit fund of revenue reserved——and
that Mr. Beers should have relied on the
surplus fund to sustain, and not to swell the
dividends. .
The Capital of the Fund, which now
amounts to $2,076,602,75, is invested as fol-
lows 2--
In contracts, bnods and mortgages,
Batik Stock, - - - -
Cash in hands oftreasurer and ag’ts,
Cultivated lands and buildings, -
Wild lands, - - - - - 49,l22,S8
During the past year, about $76,000 of
the capital of the Fund, have been trans-
ferred from bonds and mortgages, and culti-
vated and wild lands in other States, to bonds
and mortgages and bank stock in this State,
18,800 of which is in bank stock.
The amount ‘on. loan to individuals in
Connecticut, is distributed among yhe several
counties as follows :—

. . . Cuban Expedition. , ,
This movement has, without doubt. some
realit.y in it. If some of the New’York jour-
nals which appear to be the authorized organs
of the movement, are to be relied on, the Ex-
pedition has been secretly started fro'm New
Orleans, well provided with men and arms, on
pretence of being bound for Chagres, but with
the real intention of proceeding to Cuba. Sev-
eral distingutshed names, General Quitman
among them, have been mentioned as concern-
ed in the movement. The expedition is va-
riously estimated in numbers from 4,000 to
12,000. Two distinguislied Spanish merchants
and revolutionists are the leaders of the expe-
dition, Cenerals Lopez and Gonzales, who left
the port of New Orleans about the 8th inst.
From demonstrations from VVashington, it is
believed that the government have taken the
matter in hand, and that orders have been issu-
ed, having the object in view, of keeping the
movement under the eye and within the con-
trolling influence ofthe President.
5-? A young man by the name of Sauudei's
Sanimis, of Huntiugto n,.L. I., was drifted by
wind and tide, out of Stratford harbor into the
Sound. in a small row boat, on Tliursday of last
week, and had not been heard from, by any of
his friends up to Saturday night. The proba-
bility is that his boat was upset, or that he per-
islied by exposure.

Government which extends from ocean

find no limit on this continent between the
poles, but the ice-reared barrier which nature's
God has set "—-Gov. Clevelan(l’s Speech.
VVe have always supposed our excellent
ex-Governor was an ambitious man, a very
ambitious man ; and we, have always
known that he was imbued with the princi-
ples ofthe most rabid Loco focoism ; but we
never suspected that his “ beliefs” or his
“ hopes” vaulted so high as to “ apex” the
whole continent. “Cass and Cuba” was Han-
negan’s watch word at the Baltimore Con-
vention ; but at further conventions, it must
be “ CLEVELAND AND THE CoNT'iNcN'r.”
This one little remark lets us at once in-
to the secret of Loco Foco aspiration-uml
versal dominion. N o matter how different
the interests, discordant the character, di-
verse the language and distant the regions
of this continent, the expectation and hope
is that they will all be subjcctcdto our sway.
Purchase, annexation, war and conquest are
to be the modes in which that grasping am-
bition is to work its object. With no atten-
tion to the wishes or interests of the present
inhabitants of the Continent, they would
absorb the whole, and call it “the great
destiny” of the Anglo Saxon race.
