Public Acts of the last session.

We have received the pamphlet edition of

the laws enacted by the recent General As-
sembly. The mechanical execution of the
work surpasses that of any of its predecessors.
and does credit to the State Printers. On
examination of its contents, we find them to
compare favorably with the Acts of former
sessions.

We have purposely refrained from any
comment upon the doings of the last Legisla-
ture, until we could be enabled to judge
them fairly upon a candid inspection of the
official publication now before us. Having
made that inspection, we ailirm, without hesi-
tation, that the General Assembly of 1857
has well earned the gratitude of the State.-
_'l‘-here was less hasty, vacillating legislation
thaii at any other session for ten years past.
The changes made it our Statutes were few.
The whole number of Public Acts is but sev-
enty, while in 1856 there were eighty-seven,
and in 1855 one hundred and fourteen. Those
who are familiar with the vast number of
Bills for Public Acts which are offered , every

Hicu SALARiES.—--The New York Eve-
ning Mirror'contradicts the assertion of
a contemporary that the sum of $25,000
per annum, said to be the salary of the
new President of the New York and Eric
Railroad Co, is “ more probably, than is
paid to any fnnctiouary in this country.”
The Mirror “says that the head man in
Stnart’s sugar refining business received,
for several years a salary of $30,000 ;
but he resigned his place for more profita-
ble employment.”

,n- The $25,000 is certainly a “ fat take,”
but we opine that the duties of management
of that monster corporation are quite as oner-
ous as the Presidency of the Country. and re-
quires an immeasurably greater amount of
brains—vide Frank Pierce, for instance—and
if Mr. Moran earn: it, why should he not re-
ceive it? The Erie Road is managed by gen-
tlemen,who, we have not the least doubt, ful-
ly understand what they are about, and the
President’s services, and direct and indirect

‘ told that Mr. G. is a gentleman every way

- thunder storm of Monday night, 20th ult., and

good sense and discrimination _ required to
select the really useful matter ‘from such a
crude mass, will not fail to appreciate highly
this characteristic of the Legislature of 1857.

The Acts which were passed were "mainly
secdful and many of a highly valuable‘char-
aster. Wewould particularize the Act an-
thorizinga mandamus against corporations
required by their charters to restore, or repair
highways or bridges in this State; the Act
facilitating service of writs of foreign attach-
ment ; the Act relating to citizenship in this
State ; the Act authorizing State’s Attorneys
so make complaint to the Superior Court
against Railroad companies which neglect to
keep in repair highway’ crossings and bridge
abutments; the Act relating to the State Re-
:l'orm School; as Statutes establishing highly
useful reforms in the State, and which are
likely to remain long among our laws.

The truth is, the Legislature of 1857, so far
as the majority was concerned, possessed less
of a. partisan character than any which we
remember to have seen. Hence‘ bitter parti-
sans underrate it ; they cannot appreciate
she men who went to Hartford simply to dis-
charge their duty to the State, and who re-
fused to draw party lines when party ques-
tions were not in issue. VMoreover,two-thirds
.of the majority of the Assembly, in the statis-
tics of the session, were described as “Repub-
licans” and no slander which malice can de-
vise or ingenuity frame into words, has been
spared by the unscrupulous Anti Republican
press of this State to cast odiuru upon the Re-
publican cause. That these wretched efiorts
will fall of success, that thepeopte of Connec-
daicut, in spite of open enemiefi -.a=nd secret
itraitors. will still abide by and uufiinchingly
maintain the gallant position"; which they. as-
sra-med'!n the last Presidential colntesti -is our
confidential anticipation, ' At or events, no
party and no faction will gain anything in
~.the estimation of those who -rightly ‘under-
stand the action of the recent |Legislature,by
foul-mouthed abuse of the members thereof.

This new Institution, we learn, will com-

The Store formerly occupied by Henry Haudes
has been taken, and is now being refitted for
its use until the new Bank Building-shall have
been erectedupon the old Isaac’s Homestead,
near the Depot. Considerable‘ dissatisfaction
is expressed by the businessmen on the East
side of the Bridge that it was not 1 ted on
their shore as was expected, and azffiwould
undoubtedly have been for its local interests.
But our disappointed friends should remember
that " Wlcstward the Star of Empire takes its
way,” etc.. and thed again the ‘South Nor-
walk people having taken a strong interest
in its inception, ma be supposed to deserve
consideration in the final location of the insti-

has been selected as Cashier. The general
friends and admirers of Mr. Warner are not
a little chagrined at this result, but we are

competent, and worthy the position, and one
who will grow fast in the publicfavor.

13, The new Light House on Minott’s

L

‘dom experienced.

IS“ A cc‘;-,i§\spondent of the Boston
Jam-nal gives: an account of a “gay time”
recently had in Stamford, in this State.
A gentlema,1_rcBi.)ing there, (formerly of
C,1]ifomi;,,) on the occasion of his daugh-
fer reaching the age of eighteen, gave a
most brilliant; party. He is a gentleman
of large wealth, and lives in one of the
most romantic spots in the town. The
correspondent says :

“ The oldest inhabitant never before
saw the like ; and the remembrance of it
will be an epoch in the lives of the rural
inhabitants of this place that will remove
the recollections of the “ last war.” One
thousand persons were invited to the fes-
tival. From New York to New Haven,
the tide of youth, elegzince and fashion,
came throngi-ug in. The grove that sur-
rounded the mansion of the host was bril-
liantly illuminated. A vast tent was fit-
ted up in the grove for those ‘who chant
at the sound of the viol’; and the elegant
and costly repast was spread in a pavilion
adorned with flags, flowers, and all that
art a.nd taste could suggest, or money pur-
chase. And not the least of the attrac-
tions was the service of pure gold, valued
at $18,000, the ‘ slight token of regard’
to the host ‘from his friends in Californi 1.’
Of coure tue company, as usual, enjoyed
themselves hugely, and whether they said
it or not, it is a fact that they did not ‘go
l:ome till morning,’ and some of‘ them not
then. It was the party of the season,
and the crowd of spectators equalled the

participants.”
fir Guess the above will be news in this
vicinity. _ -

IS" The Boston Jom~n.a.l says that the
spring trade is over, and that it has been
on the whole very light. Merchants have
felt the diminished demand from Main, for
all kinds of merchandise. The falling off
from that quarter has been grater than
has been experienced for twenty years.-
Maiu men confidently expect a revival of
trade in the fall.
This falling off has not been made up
from any other quarter, and the summer
business will be unusually dull. Money
is comparatively plenty and rates of in-
terest are lower than they have been for
a long time.
Of the 70 ships, 56 barques, 48 brigs,
and 41 schooners in the port of Boston,
17 ships, 9 barques, 6 brigs and 13
schooners only, are loading; leaving, it
will be seen, a vast amount of shipping
unemployed. There are ‘four or five new
ships there for sale, some of which have
been in the market a long time.
The Jam-ml of Commerce gives a simi-
lar account of the shipping of New York.
It says, “Such a depression as now exists
in the mercantile marine, has been sel-
Wharves,‘ far up
town, usually vacant, are fully occupied
by ships laid up in idleness ; other ves-
sels, taking their chance in trade, sail in
ballast, or otherwise earn an uncomforta-
ble loss to the owners. Profitable voya-
ges are the exceptions.”
Prominent among the causes of this
state of affairs, it assigns the great in-
crease of ocean steamers. Their influence
has been more sensibly felt since the close
of the eastern war, by which quitea num-
ber of them were released from transport
service. A contest is being waged be-
tween sails and steam, for the supremacy,
and predictions are made that the former
must inevitably disappear before the om-
niputent power of the latter.

la. The foreign missionary enteprise
of the Seventh Day "Baptists has been
largely directed to Palestine, and has re-
sulted in the purchase, in consequence, of
several tracts of land. The Sabbath Re-
recorder says : “ When the purchase of
land in Palestine was first proposed to
our Missionary Board, there were serious
and reasonable doubts oi the validity of
titles under the Turkish laws, but now,
none have doubts, and hundreds of acres
have been bought by various religious so-
cieties of late, for the establishment of
missions, hospitals, homes, dispensaries,
schools &c., and the price of land is con-.
tinually advancing.”

Nuw Yonx July 28th, 1857.

With alowering sky above us, we left
Bcthel on the afternoon of the 23d inst,
not however without visiting the Woos-
ter monument in Daubury, which in our
opinion looks very well, and is erected in
good taste, with the exception of the
Eagle on its summit, which resembles a
mud turtle more than the bird of our
country. Be that as it may however,
the citizens of Danbury have exhibited
an interest for a revolutionary hero in this
respect, it would be well for other towns
to imitate. Unlike the city of New York,
it needs no Dr. Brandeth to perpetuate
the memory of those who fought and bled
for us, in the days thgt tried “meu’s
souls.”

Leaving Bcthel behind us a short ride
brings us to Wilton, a town which has
ever been noted for the steady industri-
ous habits of its residents, who are most-
ly engaged in farming. The town is di-
vided into various localities, severally
known as Kent, Grumman Hill, Hurlbert
St., Chestnut Hill and so on. From
whence these names originated it is diffi-
cult to decide, but its inhabitants are prob-
ably posted up in that respect. Making
but a short stay in Wilton, we take the
New Haven cars at South Norwalk, and
within a half an hour find ourselves in
Bridgeport. Taking the Naugatuck Rail-
road here, we enjoyed the most beautiful
scenery during the ride, that we have ev-
er secu. Nothing can be more pleasant
than a ride in one of these cars, free from
dust as they are by the new car ventila-
tors attaehed to each train. And now
we are at Seymour, or Humphreysville,
(it bears two names) \vhcrc we were in-
formed a stage runs daily to Woodburry.
Now comes the tug of war, up hill and
down, stony rough roads, a jolting stage,
which probably never knew the use of
springs, and we are at Oxford about five
miles from Seymour. The vehicle halts
for a few moments, to allow the driver
to imbibe, and we are off again, that gen.
tle man kindly informed us, that We have
about ten miles to go yet,. before the end
of on journey. We had several passen-
gers oue.of whom a young gentleman re-
joicing in light pants and fancy cutie,
seemed unusually restless during the trip,
and once when the omnibus jolted over
a larger stone that usual, we imagined
we heard a smothered "damn it” issuing
from that part of the vehicle. But of
course this is slander of the deepest dye.
The stage rolled on, the sun grew warmer,
and the demand for lager beer increased
in proportion, which article is rather
scanty in that region. Passing through
Southbury, a ride of four miles brings us
finally to Woodbury, and we stepped out,
rejoicing at our journey’s end. Wood-
bury is situated in a va.lley iuclosed by
several mountains, and the town presents
a rough ragged aspect. There are sev-
cral places of interest, among which are
Castle Rock, a high eminence overlook-
ing the town,- the Hatters Grave, the
last resting place of a Hatter, named
Hartsboru, who died a number of years
since of the small pox, and" was buried
in a remote part of the village, in a lone-
ly field, near the roadside. The following
is inscribed on his tomb-stone.

\ “ In this lonely and retired spot
The stranger is at rest.

His spirit’s gone to him who gave,’
To dwell among the blest.”

There are a number of interesting spots
in the neghborhood, among which is a
precipitous mountain, where it is said an
Indian Chief in olden times leaped from
its summit into the valley below. The
town contains Churches, a Hotel, and a
number of stores. Its inhzbitants are
hard working, industrious folks, especial-
ly the women, who do not consider it
necessary to shut the doors and close the
.blinds, when they mend a dress or sew a
botton hole. Having seen everything of
interest, we left Woodbury for Bridge-
port on the morning of the 27th. Arriv-
ing therc, we visited the factory of
Messrs. Wheeler and Willson, and had
an opportunity of witnessing the labor
used there in making that great invention
of the present day—a sewing machine.-
From there we went to New Haven,
visiting the prominent places, including
Yale College, the Green the. &c., and re-
turned to the city by the 1 30 P. M. Ex-
press train, well satisfied with our visit,
and content once more to enjoy -“ Home

How To Gnow Ll-‘.AN'.——Fflt people will
be interested to know that Dr. David, of
Paris a “ professional cmaciator,” pre-
scribe a treatment which is intended to
diminish emlumpoint without injuring the
health. He directs the patient to live
principally on meat, eating little else and
drinking as little as possible. Vegeta-
bles soups, puddings, tarts, fruits, bread,
and cakes, in their proteau forms have,
carbon and oxygen for their principal
basis, and water is the protoxide of hy-
drogen; all of which substances are the
elements of fat. The principal base of
meat is azote or nitrogen, which does not
enter into the composition of fat, hence
lean meat is a good diet for the aspirant
after lcanucss. Carnivorous animals are
fattcued by meal, and vegetables rather
than meat.

To the l-Iulitor of the Nurrin-k t.'nym-tin :

l \\'~tll|i} to get some light about this
crc Comet, our folks are all in a. terrible
conilusteration about it and are getting
altogether too much excited i'or their own
good.

I liave taken the Gayzcttc: ever sen we
moved down here from old Varmount,
and flint is, let me see-——you know the
big tree clus to our house, well that was
here when we cum. Our people piu
great faith on their sleeves in your paper,
and your ideas will kinder settle -matters
and put an end to the lmbbub and bad
feelins.

Unklc Jake Bobbydoddy and Aunt
Prudy Wisely have had a right smart
chance of diskersious and argyfications
about the Comet I can tell you." Unklc
Jake thinks the tail of the Comet is a
streak of real fire hotter than red hot. bi-
liug mud, and that the nukcrlns is a sol-
id body of fire covered all over. with
what they call an envellup. He thinks
the Comet has run against suthing and
tore a hole in its old“ jacket, and when
the fire has all run out on it, we slmn’t
be able to see it no morc.. Aunt Prudy
dou’t agree egsactly with §Unklc_ Jake's
notions or whims as she calls cm. She
believes the tail of the Comet is nothing
but a long isickel, and the reason why
we see it is cause the sun shines on it.——
She thinks too the cold weather of this
season so far, has been caused by this
isickel tail, apd the abundant rain she
puts down to the credit of the some cold
Comet’s tail. For when the tail is turn-
cd away upon the sun it is cold, and
when it is turned towards the sun the
tail melts and rip-squlzzles all over the
earth, and the rest oi' creation.

Tother day, Aunt Prudy called on our
parson Rev. Zefaniar Poodlediug for
Aunt Prudy had a little bone to pick
with him. Last Sabberdny in the morn-
ing, he preached a sermon that made
Aunt Prudy’s dander and Mrs. Adam
rise some. His sucject was “ the loaves
and fishes,” in treating of which, firstly,
secondly, thirdly, finally and lastly, he
give particular Jessy to the members of
she congregation who was back on the
pew-tax, seeing as how he couldu’t get
his pay till that was paid.

The purson told call that if they did
not pay up the minister better, that the
Comet, or some other aerial locomotive
might get careless and pitch into the
earth head-first, kill all the squash a.ud
tater vines and shake all the apple trees,
producing a general discomboberation
amougjall kinds of garden sarsc. Well,
Aunt Prudy wanted to have a little
reckoning and cool talk with Mr. Poodle-
ding about such sentiments and about
twitting her before the hull congregation
of not paying her pew-tax. By the way
Aunt Prudy allers paid f'or her pew in
advance, she told him right to his face
she didn’t thank him for speaking out in
meeting about her not paying her pew-
tax, and that no gentleman would have
did it, and as for the Comet running off
the track and bobbing agin the earth and
knocking everything to kingdom come,
she was no more skearcd about it, than
she would be by a shooting star. That
Comets never had been switched off the
track, but allers had minded their own
business, and behaved purty respectable,
and she guessed they allcrs would.

Mr. Poodlediug told Aunt Prudy he
was very sorry he had hurt her fcelins,
and hoped she would excuse him for what
was said about the pew-tax, and promised
that next Stlbberday he would read off
the list of the members who had paid, in
open meeting. Mr. Poodleding looking
serious at Aunt Prudy, says he Aunt

Prudy you have fell into a very unchris"

tian e_l'ro1' about Comets. I feel myself
under an imperative duty thus to inform
you such notions as you have about Com-
ets are not scripteral but are such as are
entertained by the N cw Schoolers, and
such like heaven-forsaken people, mere
dogmas. And furthermore that the peo-
ple should believe only such doctrines as
the minister tells em to, just as asick man
should take only such physio as the doc-
tor leaves for him. This last made Aunt
Prudy’s eyes stick out a few. She start-
cd for. him in a state of great mental
ivondermént, believing in her very soul
that her deal’ parson Poodlediug had
passed the Rubrieon of Poperay, and
had become a Popeist. Aunt Prudy was
a strong believer in the doctrine of the
right of private judgmeut—did not be-
lieve in any man’s ipse dixit, ipse dixhcr,
or ipse dixhim, and Itelled her that she
was right there.

Now, Mr. Editor, I must come to what
the Littcrayty would call a stoppibus,
cause as how I haiu’t got n.'~thiug more
to say at present. Dou’t forget to give
us your idears about the Comet in your
next Gayzcttc.

Yours truly,
' Ousorsu NEWLIGHT.

soldier and martyr, whose memory the
country delights to honor, was recently
removed from a clerkship at \Vashington,
upon which he depended in his old age,
entirely, for support, on ac'.ount of his
being supposed to hold views contrary to
those of the present administration. A
proposition was then made to him, that if
he would draw up :I. paper denying any
aiiinity with either the Republican or
American parties, and take it before a
magistrate and swear to it, he should be
reinstated. This came from the Secreta-
ry of the Interior through amutual friend.
“Tell the secretary,” he said, ‘.‘ that I
will see him in the bottom of the bottom-
less pit, before I will so degrade myself !”
Because he will not be a slave, the gov-
ernment will not employ him. This pro-
scription derives additional interest from
the fact that it was cfl'ected in obedience
to the behcsts of slavery, at the very time
the Boston flunkeys were glorifying sen-
ator Mnson in Boston, on the occasion of
erecting a statue to the grandfather of‘

only shown an energy in giving oflices to
its pro-slavery adherents, and preventing
Kansas from becoming a Free State.

proving a lamentable failure he drew up
his legs, as if to get them out of the way
as useless appendages. He then looked

Our brethren are deceiving themselves,

of the gangrene itself.

hesitate to choose the latter. They must

not, can not, should not, prescribe to their

hear our rebukes, they must retire. So

say an increasing number among us in

be it. N o more compromises in relation

to moral evil itself,” Depend upon it

such is to be the tone of our Church.
