36- The most generous and attractive
railroad “opening” excursion party that
ever was got up in this country, is ip pro-
grass of arrangement for next month.—
The Cl icago and Rock Island railroad,
connecting Chicago, and hence the At-
lantic shores, by rail, with the upper Mis-
sissippi river, was recently completed
and opened to public travel; and by way
of celebrating so important an event, and
introducing to public information the
route and country thus opened to travel
and improvement, the directors propose
to take a party of about 400 guests, la-
dies and gentlemen, over the "road from
Chicago to the river, and there embark-
ing them on board two elegant steamers
expressly chartered for the occasion, to
convey tliewvliole party up the Missis-
sippi to St. Paul's in Minnesota or near
the Falls of St. Anthony, and thence to
return to the point of starting. The
journey on the river is expected to occu-
py from seven to ten days, ‘and will form
the principal, and certainly a most de-
lightful, feature of the excursioii.-—"
The partyis to start from Chicago June
,5, and guests from the eastern states are
furnished with free tickets to and from,
Chicago over either of the railroad routes
between New York city and that point.

Murder of Prof. Butler.

The New York Express says of the
acquittal of Ward :

Nobody/doubts that Prof, Butler was
murdered——mur«lered in cold blood—
murdered mercilessly and deliberately;
and for no other offense, either than the
infliction of an allowable and perfectly
just reprimand of a badly behaved school‘
boy by his teacher. These facts are‘ pat-
ent and notorious. They cannot be——
they have not been—denied.

The Tribune says of the same matter:

He was dis"ch_arged from custody and
sent back upon society with notone of
them all, witnesses, counsel or jury, dis-
believing his guilt. It shocks the public
591159.‘ and calls forth indignant commen-
tary in every unbiased quarter, There
never was a ,clearer case of deliberate,
premeditated murder. _ , ~

The Times expresses similar opinions,
and adds: ' " l - 

The issue between influence and jus-
tice bas been badly made and fairly‘ met.
It has been decided that" certain circles of
society are not to be rudely entered‘ by
the public executioiiers; that certain par-
ties‘ are not amendable to the penalty of
the law.‘ ‘ "

We do not remember to lnivc seen b‘0,aNl‘flcl-IVI:

our farincrs and citizens generally will colli-
mcnce in season to compete for the many gen-
erous premiums offered for the various prod-
ucts of labor: and skill. »Wliilc our band is in
we will also hint to the discrctioucry commit-

tee this year, However, Stamford has shown
already that she dor not stand in need of in-

that with the zeal of‘ IL new convert he is al-
most persuaded to go to prosely ting among his

Wccan see no present prospect of his having
his namchanded down to succeeding gcnet-a-
tions, as a public benefactor, in so sure a way,

to all similarly affected.

The Neln-ascality Bill.

This infamous measure has finally been push
ed through both Houses of Congress and awaifr
only the signature of a President already sold
to slavery propagandism, for less than a mess
of‘ pottage, to become a law.

Well the deed has been accomplished, for
the express purpose. of giving perpetuity to the
slave power, now let the friends of that beas.
tial system bewa1'c, for we predict, that on the
day the Nebraska Bill, receives the executive
signature on that day. is th e Death warrant of
American Slavery sealed, mid God speed the
hour when the clanking of the chains of human
bondage shall cease to be heard beneath the
folds of the stars and stripes.

The Feeling.

At Mew Haven and Hartford, the, American
Flags were hung at half‘mas_t, union down,and
the church bells tolled for an hour on the re-
ception of the news of the passage of the Ne-
braska outrage. Lct the painting slave cease
his flight to the free soil of Canada to become
a free man.’ New Eiigland noyv offers him
an asylum. The gauntlet has been thrown in
'our teeth and let it be published on the winds
that henceforth there is no binding force in
Compromises, and Connecticut, at least, abro-
gates all laws ftir the rendition of slaves! "Let
us all unite, on the noble sentiment “ Opposi‘
tiou to tyrants, is obedience to Gbd.”

Judicial Expenditures.

The attention of the Whigs of this county
was called at the late‘ ’Shcrifl' Convention to
the‘ very great: increase of its judicial expenses
under the administration of the Messrs. Taylor
& Noble. By the Comptro1ler’s Report just
received, we find the figures in gross, amount-
ing to sll,-116,06 for the year ending April lst
1854! Hartford County renders a deficiency
of only. $5,37l,1t) ; New Haven County of
$8,302.52 ; New London County $6,37,58 ;'
Litchficld $5,32_.21; Middlesex about $1000;
Tollank 38,95,506 and Windham $325,-17. So
that our County exceeds the highest sum at‘
tamed by any county by over $3,100! Is there
not a “ loose screw” somewhere which will
_bear tightening?

 

The Cannon.

' Werpercejve that the “ big shooting Iron,”
which‘ Wll3"Eplll‘CllB.S0(l for the purpose of“ de-
fending the town from foreign invasion,” has
arrived. It" is well mounted‘ on agood substan-
tial carriage and although costing the town but
$50 must be in reality worth some hundreds.
It seems to be afutherlc-ss‘ ‘ child however, as it
stands exposed to the sun and rain. If the city
fathers make no provision for its proper charge
and preservation, vre"ti-nst that it will not es:
cape the lunar lens of “ The Most August Hoot
Owl.” ‘

. Mad Dogs.

In almost every paper we take’ up, we find
accounts of the ravages of mad dogs, and in a
community where the canine species are so nu-
merously represented, and many of them so
poorly fed as among us, it behooves all to be
on their guard. _ j

I’. S. It is asserted on high authority, that
no person having paid for their Pfipcr, was
ever known to be bitten by a’ rabid dog. - Do
oua delinquent subscribers ever think in what
jcopartly they are e very hour.

A stupendous Excursion.

some dozen Railroad Companies have re-

and gratification of Capitalists, Directors, Edi-

never been equalled." They are to rendezvous
at Chicago on the 5th proxiino,aud from thence
proceed to Rock River, St. Pauls, St. Antho-
ny’s Falls, ikc., with the choice of some half
dozen different routes left _to the option of
the guests, so that we presume the excursion
will be limited only by the extent of the Wea-
fcrn Coiitineiit. Those invitedare to be" the
guests of the companies during the entire trip.

This gigantic enterprise, we learn was conceiv-

ed and has been mainly carried out by Mr.
Sanford of New Haven, at a personal outlay
of over $10,000. This throws the Expedition
