The floral of the recent Elections.

We do not remember, in the political histo-
ry of the government, any Administration
which has received so early in its career so
terrible a blow as hasjust been inflicted upon
that of Mr, Buchanan by the Elections in
Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, and
- Kansas. The President, for the remainder
. of hisoflciel term, is to take the place of a
' servant, instead of that of a master. No
more edicts are to come from the White
House, solong as its present occupant re-

‘ mains there. The Psortn have resumed the
’ reiushl' government, and they have done so
bechu'se those whom they trusted have be-
" , trayed them. .
‘ There is a moral in these things to which
L we especially~invite the attention of our
readers. .

First,then, these Elections show that the
people of the Free States have determined
to be no longer a mere appanage of the Slave

States. Politicians may 1e drn this lesson,’

that from this time forth_ it may be danger-
ous to face always Southward.. The sceptre
of this government has crossed Mason and
Dixon’s line; and is hereafter to be wielded
practically as well as theoretically by the
mujority. Avast preponderance of the in-
habitants,intelligence, and property of the
country is, and is to be in the Free States.—
‘ The weight which this preponderance ought
to have had in the Federal government has
been hitherto more than counterbalanced by
the political skill and united action of the ra-
ling classes in the Slave States, aided by the
treachery and servility of Northern politi-
.cians. This is to be no longer. The Dough-
face instinctively fawns at the foot of power.
As in the past he betrayed his constituents,
soils the future he will betray his former
masters, or sink into oblivion. ~
Another lesson to be learned from these
Elections. is that the laboring masses are
tired of being subjected to competition with
the halfspald labor of Europe, by the ope ra-
tion or our present wretched Tariff system-
Our revenue laws were devised for the pur-
poses ef men whose laborers were sIaecs,and
a part of their object has been to [repress
Northern Industry. Pennsylvania, the old
cradle of Democracy, new speaks in thunder
tones for a Tarlfi‘ that, instead of discrimina-
' ting against, shall discriminate in favor of
the labor 'of her sons, and with the overthrow
of the Power which has so long borne evil
sway in the councils of the nation, we my
hope for the near approach of a just protec-
tion to American Industry. .
Once more, these Elections are an emphat-
ic protest against the system of- wholesale
frauds upon the Ballot-box, which the party
now ruling at Washington has inaugurated as
.-. part of its regular system of tactics. The
. shameless corruption manifested by the Dem-
ocratic managers in Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Maine, Pennsylvania‘s; New York within the
j - three years last past, have aroused, as well as
7 disgusted, the honest, thinking portion of the
nation, and a recoil from affiliation with a
political organization 'which adopts such
means to ensure a perpetuity of power, is the
I natural result. If such a recoil had not taken
place, we should have been tempted to des-
pair ef the Republic, for the purity of the
ballot box is the foundation on which all our
free institutions r t. But the men of the
present time have ived themselves worthy
' of the trust which the fathers committed to
-' them, and in the tidings of the last few days
' we see the foreshadowings ofa gl‘orious Fu-
' ture. .
I M»
Chapter of Accidents.

Wednesday last may be set down as an un~

'. lucky day in this vicinity. In the morning

an Irish woman was found dead in the vicini-

- ty of “ Finchville”—cause general bad usage
Iand worse rum. ’ .

During the day Monsieur Henry Handes,
of the Village Truckmen’s Express Com.
‘pany, while engaged in the praisewortby
avocatton of cutting hay or straw for
his expectant quadruped, cut off one of his
own (not the horse’s) fingers. The accident
is to be regretted on humane grounds,
lest hereafter be may be deterred from the
exercise of a duty which the visible anatomy

‘ of his steed would seem to indicate had not
heretofore been “any too faithfully performed.

Then, more serious than the above, the noon
train out of New York,just as it was round-
ing the curve below the Norwalk sfation,ran
,into a_ platform car laden with track iron,
which some stupid employee had left: upon
the track“ Owing to its position the truck
'was not seen until the up-train was almost
upon it. The engineer sounded his whistle,
reversed his engine, and with the fireman
jumped off,‘ . :They had scarcely landed on
terre firmaibefore it struck, tearing up the
track for some disthnce, overturning the en-
gine ondlro'llingi it over, finally leaving i1
,bottom-side-up across the two tracks. For-
tnn‘ateiy and almost miraculously,no one was
injured. The embodyment of stupidity
through whose carelessness the accident oc-
’cdrred, claims thdt his watch had stopped, and
it fireasonable to. infer that Mr. Superinten-
dent Hoyt will see that his peg" diem also
stops." The‘uoon train, as well as. all the ef-
sornoon, “and evening trains, had to come to r,
deadbolt attllarien Depot, where they were
detained until about eight o’clock. P. M.

mendous erasb, whereat a great commotion

derstood that the opinion prevailed that its

retina, theientire-cooiness and deliberation
with which they commenced removing the
bricks and mortar, will undoubtedly lead him.

A Centenarian.

On Sunday, Oct. 10th, 1858, Mrs. Sarah
Denton,relict of the late Benjamin Denton of
Wilton, reached the extreme agc‘of‘ one hun-
dred years. For a number of years Mrs. D.
has lived in the family of Mr. Samuel Abbott,
of Ridgefield 5 Mrs. Abbott being her daugh-
ter. At the anniversary of her hundreth
year, according to previous arrangement, a
large company of relatives, acquaintances,
and others interested in seeing a perton who
has lived so long, assembled at the residence
of Mr. Abbott to improve the occasion by ap-
propriate religious exercises. Au appropri-
ate hymn was sung, prayer was offered by
Rev. Mr. Woolley of Ridgefield. After the
singing of another hymn, a discourse was de-
livered by Rev. Albert Nash,presiding elder
of the New Haven district, from John xvii. 15.
“ I pray not that thop shouldest take them
out of the world.”

The sermonwas made up of suggestions up
on the reasons and advantages of prolonged
life.

Mr. Nash has been connected with the fam-
ily by the marriage of a grand-daughter who
died about twenty years since. The following
facts and statistics were given to the audi-
dence: Mrs. Denton’s maiden name was
Sarah Middlebrook ; she' was the youngest
of a family of nine children ; her father's
name was Michael Middlebrobk; her mother’s
maiden name was Abia Somers ; she was born
at a house which stood on the south side of
the road nearly opposite a house recently
built by Mr. Jonathan Middlebrook of Wilton.
The site of the house was near an old pear
tree which still stands like our venerable
friend,‘a living monument of another genera-
tion. She was married to Mr. Benjamin Den-
ton seventy-five years ago‘last June ;he died
about twenty-four years since and therefore
lived with her about fiifty-onc years. She
had seven children of which three have de-
ceased ; the eldest now living is- nearly
seventy-two years of age, and really looks as
though she might be only fifty-five ; the
youngest child is fifty-nine years of age ; she
has also had forty one grand children, fifty
eight' great grandchildren, and ten great,
great, grand children making an aggregate of
one hundred and sixteen ; of these twenty
four have died leaving of surviving descend-
ants, ninety two. ’

Mrs. D. became a partaker of saving grace.
and united with the Wi'ton Congregational
church under the pastorate of Rev. Mr; Wood-
ward, about seventy years since. _For many
years,and until quiterecently,when achange
of sight has prevented, she was a faithful and
earnest student of the scriptures, and her
familiarity with their contents,is truly re-
markable. Her piety has been intelligent,
deep and remarkably even. Her character is
marked by great self;command, wisdom and
benevolence. She has borne the infirmities of
age with great meekness and patience ; and
has hitherto been so far from all the peculiar-
ities of second childhood, as to make all nec‘
essary attentions paid to her, a sincere plegs-
ure. Her memory remains so vigorOus that
she will repeat correctly and without hesita-
tion several consecutive verses of Watts’
psalms. or hymns, and long passages of'
scripture, interspersed with reflections of her
own. After the discourse was delivered, and
the foregoing and other facts stated, the
sacrament Was administered to Mrs. D. and
two invalids, members of the family. The
doxology and benediction closed the services,
after which the concourse of people assembled:
amounting to about two thousand persons,
passed through the house, and looked upon
the face of the venerable woman. Many of
these took her by the hand ; while she con-
versed on various subjects. A pleasant
recognition was given to many acquaintances,
whom she had not met before for many years,
and of her friends not one seemed to be for-
gotten. May her end be as peaceful .and
triumphant, as her life has been pure and
beautiful. N.

For the Norwalk Gazette

The writer would be .glad to be informed
whether the “ sealer of weights and measures”
for the town of Westport has faithfully per-
formed his duty in regard to the draw on the
bridge which is in process of construction
across the Saugatuck river. If not. he would
respectfully suggest to the inhabitants of that
town the propriety of setting that officer to
work, and giving him power to regulate the
lime for completing the said bridge, as well
as the weights by means "of which the draw
’is to be opened. '

That will be a famous Bridge which the
Westporters are building in slow haste across
the Saugatuck. The‘ groans and lamenta-
tions uttered in unmeasured numbers by
those who view its unsightly proportions, con-
template the iardy progress of the work and
dream of taxes that must be forthcomingmake
it too evident that the structure when com-

plated, will be u .. Bridge of Sighs.”

Doucnss’ Posrrrox.‘—-The Peoria
Transcript doubtless expresses'the feel-
ings of the Republicans of Illinois in the
following reply to the Hartford Courant_
The latter paper, speaking of the neces-
ity of crushing Douglas, says :

There was a time when the Republi-
cans of Illinois might have prevented this
result. If they had assumed him as a
candidate for the United States Senate,
it would have ruined him in the South
and might have driven him to the Repub-
lican ranks with all his adherents in the
free States. It is too late now, and they
must fight the battle to the bitter end.

To which the Transcript replies very
forcibly: " -

This extract reveals the position, past
and prevent, of Mr. Dbuglas in connec-
tion with the Republicans. It was ex-
pected that he would join the Republican
party, an expectation which nrosefrom
his own assurances to that effect. He
was net willing to come into the Repub-
cen ranks voluntarily—but Would have
submitted had the Republicans of this
State picked up and carried him in.-——
Thank God, liad'too much indepcnv
deuce to on In such business. They
have buckled on their armor for a war-
fare against Stephen A Douglas, which,
if it involves the fate of the Republican
party,also involves their own political con-
sistency and personal honor. Let the
Hartford Courant and eastern Republi-
cans rest assured that the Republicans of
Illinois will fight this engagement to the
bitter end. They will conquer, they
will send Abram Lincoln to the United
States Senate, and the demagogue Doug-
las whining into private life. They will
save the Republican flag from being dis-
honored and trailed in the dust. They
will elevate the republican party through-
out the country to the dignity and honor
of an independent organization. and give
it hope and power and prestige for an
overwhelming victory over the nigger-
dnvmg Democracy in the next great

 

 

Presidential contest.

Gsxrnnunx :—_In your paper of the 12th of
October, I find an drticle headed " Excommu-
nication,” which, in my opinion, even if
correct, is entirely out of piaceiu a " Family
Newspaper” which docsuot enumerate among
the “ objécts” to which it is devoted, religious
polemics. i am one of those who think that
a newspaper intended fer general circulatiou
especially in a rural district, where then- is a
considerable difference of opinion in religious
matters, should keep aloof from controver-
sies on religious subjects. Others may differ
with me if? this view, but all honest minds
will agree that if such subjects are introdu-
ced, it should be in a fair, honest and manly
spirit. How far the article “ Ezcommimica-
tion” partakes of that spirit others may judge
with the facts before them.

The following is the ofiicial'act of the Bish-
op of New Jersey, which is commented on in
the article I refer to: ,-
To the Rev. Richard .51. Garden, Presbyfer

of the Diocese of Pennsylvania-:~ ‘ - "

In the Banner of the Cross of the 261h
August, 1858, published in the city of Philag
delphia, where yen are a resident, are the
words following :-. , -

“ Recently," to Mt. on Sunday, 25th July,
_-‘ the Rev. Mr. Garden, on a visit to Cape
May,” in the diocese ofN cw Jersey, f‘preach-
ed there, and. administered the Holy Commu-
nion ; calling on the resident Methodist
minister to assist him in the administration of
the elements. There were other clergyman
of the Church there; one or more of whom
refused to participate in so irregular a ser-
vice.”

I have been duly certified, that the allega-
tion thus made is true. I have waited till
this time for your explanation or apology. I
have received neither. '

I. therefore, deem it my duty,‘ under the
sixth canon of the—General Convention of
1850, to admonish you for such act of misbe-
havior. in violation of that provision of the
ordinal under which you became a deacon
and a priest : “ No man shall be accounted or
taken to be a lawful Bishop,Priest, or Deacon
in this Church,or suffered to execute any of
the said functions, except he be called, tried,
examined. and admitted ihereunto according
to the form hereafter following, or bath had
Episcopal consecration or ordination..” And
I, moreover, forbid you to officiate in the die-
cese of New Jersey. ,

Given at Riverside, this 4th day 'of Sep-
tember, A. D 1858. G. W. Donxn,

Bishop of New Jersey.

Witness : W. Croswell Deane, Chaplain.

The Rev. Mr. Gordon, as a Presbyter of the
Church,is bound by his ordination vows, and
by the Constitutional Provisions of the Prot-
estant Episcopal Churchfi‘ always so to min-
ister the Doctrine and Sacraments. and the
discipline of Christ. as the Lord hath com-
mended, and as this Church has received the
same.” As a Presbyicr of the Protestant
Episcopal Church. he has subscribed to the
following declaration: “ I do solemnly en-
gage to conform to the Doctrine and Worship
ot‘the Protestant Episcopal Churclr in the

.. "a ..l 1

. United States.”

New to violate deliberately and. wilfully
his oath and solemn e' gagement of conform-
ity is truly and seriously, what in your edi-
torial, you write sneeringly, “ A Dnrzanmr.
Matter.” . ‘

In connexion with yourmore brTefremarks,
you insert an extract from a paper published
by three Clergymen of the Protestant Episco-
pul Church, which for malignity, injustice and
bad taste, cannot be excelled by anything
which may be found in the New York Herald
in its most reckless and infamous da‘ys. _ But
what, I ask you, has any accusation against
theprivate character of a man to do with his
official acts ? The simple question is did the
Rev. Mr. Garden violate the laws of the Prot-
estant Episcopal Church, his vows at ordina-
tion, and his solemn promise and subscribed
engagement? ‘If he did, has Bishop Doane
done anything more than his duty to admon-
ish him of his error and forbid his officiating
again in a Diocese to which he did not be-
long, as the laws of: the Church authorizeand
require ?

it is. I believe. a lmaxim of logicians that
when a controversialist stoops to coarse and
vulgar personalities, it is because he feels
that his cause will furnish him no better ar-
guments.

In contrast with the scurrilous remarks of
the paper from which you have made your
quotation, the following courteous, manly,
logical extract from “ The flmerican Pres-
byterian," whose editor, while he sympathi-
zes with Mr. Cardcn,never forgets the charity
of a Christian. and the self-respect of a gen-
tleman, when he refers in Bishop Doane,from
whom on this subject he honestly differs, but
treats him with fairness, kindness and ity.
He says :

‘f Bishop Doane is among the most able of
the Episcopal bishops in the United States.—
As a man of genius and eloquence; as an
elegant scholar ; as a sweet Christian poet ;
as an accomplished master of the English
language ; as having the power of drawing
closely to himself the hearts of others; and as
having absolute control over his spiritual
charge,he is unsurpassed by any who are
clothed with episcOpal power in this country.
We speak of him as a public man, for we have
now no concern with the charges which have
been brought against him either of a public
or private character. He has evidently de-
signed to make the Diocese of New Jersey :1
model diocese, and so far as his public acts
are concerned, we regard him as in every
important respect a model Episcopal bishop.
Beyond all question he understands what
are the principles of the Episcopal Church.
and he is prepared, however unpopular it may
be, to carry out those principles and apply
them. . , ' '1

He has taken the ground in this proclaim}-
tion that no minister of any other denomina-
can be recognized by an Episcopalian: as
having any '.right whatever to " execute
any of the functions” of a bishop, priest. or
deacon—that is of a minister of the4Gospcl in
any sense, for according to Episcopal notions
these grades comprise the ministryaunlcss
he has had episcopal consecration or ordina-
tion _; in other words. unless he is an Epis-
copallan. We believe that he is right, As
We understand the “ canon" to which he refers,
and as we understand the' "rayérBook,'l.liis
is [he true doctrine of the Episcopal Church.
The whole structure of the Pray-er Book, and
the whole structure of ,the Church, is based
on thisidea. it would be impessiblei‘or any
one by a fair interpretation of language in
the Prayer Book, to show that a minister or
any other church is to 'be recognized in any
way as '1. true minister of.Christ, or that it
would be proper for nn._Episcepn;l minister to;
recognize him as such. ln-fhe Prayer Book
there is no mention made of any other minis
ter or ministers ; there are 'no prayers prescri-
bed for them; there - are no provisions for
recognizing their acts ;. there are .no arrange-
ments for any interchange with them as
ministerial brethren ; thereareno circumslau
ces referred to'vvhere it would be proper to
acknowledge them as ministers. ' we cannOt
doubt therefore. that every man who becomes
an Episcopal minister publicly bindsbimself
pot to recognize the ministers _of otherdcnom-
inations as true ministers of the Gospel ; and
it must be admitted, therefore, that the Rev.
Mr. Garden has subjected. himself“; the just
rebuke of the Bishop of New Jersey. ' :

The wonder is that Christian men can place
themsclves 1n_a position where,7in the expres-
oi Christian kindness and confidence'townrt 117
other ministers of the Gospel. they will be
subject toe rebuke of this nature. We do not
doubt that not a few Episcopal ministers. in
their hearts. regard the ministers of other.
denominations as having the right to perform
the-functions of the ministry. and as being

true ministers of the Lord Jesus. , But they .

cannot give utterance to this feeling. They
cannot treat them naministers of the Gospel..
They cannot invite them to their pulpits ——
They cannot receive the communion at their
hands. They cannot ask them to 5‘ assist them
in administering the elements." Everywhesm
and‘ at all times, by their public acts,they
are constrained to regard them, and treat
them. as Bishop Deane would do, 'as good and
pious laymen it may be, but as having 'no
claim to exercise the functions of the min-
lstry.”

As the subject matter of the following“
article has awakened considerable atten-
tion in this vicinity, we reprint it, and
commend it. to the careful consideration
of the Ecclesiastical Societies of this
town. '
‘ Thechw rYork State Association of
Sunday School Teachers, held a Conven-
tion on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs-
day'in Brooklyn. It was evidently an
occasion of great interest. ,_ The mo‘stini-
portant topic discussed appears in this ex-
tract from a report in the New Haven
News of Wednesday’s proceedings :
" Atzll‘o’clock the topics for discussion
were taken up, among which was, “ To
what extent can the afternoon church ser-
vice be profitably postponed 5to_ the
'eve'ning,‘in" cities or villages or ’in the

_,.

. .'._\.- _.-., ‘

s

.country,..so,. that there shall be time . to

carryout the; design of the Sabbath
School, 'where now only the. system and
theory‘exist, Without the reality _or the
results ?_” This aubject was very thor-
‘o'ng'hly, discussed by clerrgymenand lay-
men. There-was not ,an instance: cited
where the experiment 'h'atl 'Zbefen, made,
but great good had been the result.—
The children, could notfreceive preper
care by the short time allowed them ill
the morning. or at noon; besides, every
church should have its' Mission School,
where many of the now inactive members
should be engaged as teachers, not only
for the good of the scholars, but for the
welfare of the Church. Many instances
were given where the afternoon sessions
Wcrc wholly given to the sabbath-school.
Nearly two thirds of the whole congrega-
tion were scholars, and the exercises had
become so attractive by the singing of
children’s hymns and other exercises, that
almost every child has been gathered into
the school. In some schools, grandpar-
ents, parents and children were embraced
as members of the school. The result of
the discussion was a unanimous vote, that
all denominations be recommended to (10‘
fer the regular afternoon service until
cveniugnthat the afternoon of the Sub-
bath be devoted to the Sabbath School
and Missionary labors. No one could
have listened'to the facts brought for-
ward at' that convention without being
convinced that the action of this large bod
of ministers and laymen had now opened
a way for the ingathering of thbusands of
children, parents and grandparents to our
schools, and also givcna plan in connec-
tion with the mission werk, which, if car-
ried out will reach the thousands of des-
titute children and families.

’- "'Solon Robinson writes to the "Tribune
in enthusiastic terms of the Connecticut
State Fair. ,He thinks it unsurpassed in
many res‘pectsr'—-especially in the exhibi-
tion of cattle. Here "-, is what he, says
of the fruits, vegetables, grains, and cat-

tie : -...1 . . - .. fl"? '

The man who has not attended a show
of fruit in Connecticut, has yet something
to learn fifths excellence‘of such a show;‘
Ihnve ‘not.,seen anything like it anwhere
else. 3:.Tbink,.ya' admirers of threeapples
in a saucer, _of the hundred bushel bask-
ets full of apples that I counted in the
tent. Some, of, these apples

. o< . ,

quantities adds much to the interest of the
grand exhibition. ._

There are. 13130, besides thegreat apple
show~ in basketshs‘ev'ersl long tables, cov-
ered, as 113,091: with plates of apples,
pears, plums, peaches and 'mostbeautifnl
quincesz’" The latter are also exhibited in
baskets by 't‘he‘jbushel. . .

The showofgrapesjs also very large,
and the varieties numerous, and samples
excellent. I do _not'fin'dflbnt one sample
of the Deliwure grape, it having ripened
and gone'befere this time, but 'I hear ev-
ery one whb’tasted this new grape speak
of it in the same'high terms that I have
heretofore... At New urg, when it was
in perfection, I had an opportunity to
test it thoroughly in Charles Downing’s
garden, With several other sorts, and am
convinced that it.is the best grape for
general use ever-introduced into America
and will beiaccouuted a valuable wine-
grnpe whenever" it 'is raised in sufficient
quantity. / .

This plan of showing apples by the
bushel is one that'cannot be too highly
commendedfluantity as well asqunlify has
a great effect upon, the visitor.- It gives
him an idea of abundance. In truth, up-
pics in the ' CenncCticut valley must be
abundant as well as good, or the people
could never make such a Show as this.——-
It is wonderful that - a State that can
raise suchapples does not do enon git of
it to supply the New York market.

It is surprising to see, at this season,
such fine peaches as are somewhat abun-

strects of Hartford.

I find the best sccklc’ pears in this
show that I-ever. saw anywhere.

Potatoes are shown in the same way'
that apples are, a bushel together, and I
have never, not even in the days of an-
cient potato growing—seen a better,
show then. the one now exhibited. Thel
varieties are numerous, and I hear of but
few complaints of disease causing the rot.
I find the Prince Albert potatoes are
becoming favorites among the Connectir
cut farmers. It is said that, although
a Winter potatoe, they . are now in fine
condition for eating, the flesh .is white
and mealy. Some of this variety are.
the largest I ever saw. The Carter p04
tatocs also show well, and there are some
beautiful pink Mercer's, said to be as
good as they look. .

Pumpkins are to be seen in all their
glory. There can be no possible lack of
the main material for n. Connectic at
Thanksgiving, if we may judge from the
extraordinary specimens in the vegetable
hall of the fair. There are some of the
Mammoth Squash family, of enormous
size, but I very much prefer the old
varieties, such as the old yellow pump-
kin, the cheese pumpkin, the crookneck
squash, in some of its forms, and above
all, the Boston manors. °

Beets, turnips, and other vegetables,
are enormous enough to rival California
productions, in the‘ same line, and' in
quality and Variety fully prove that Con-‘
necticutneed'notfrack away down the
scble as a food producing State if all her
farmeis would benefit by the lessons that
this show is capable of teaching.

Almost every article in the. garden veg-
etable line that can be shown ht this sea-
son _ofthe year, giyes proof that Connect-
'icut soil is fully capable of producing oil
the people. need. Cabbage, capiiflower,
turnip, beets and onions are particularly
worthy of notice. , , V

I notice a-variety of samples of 12:001-
lent wheat, grown'in this old state at a
rate which makes it a paying crop, and
there aretwo barrels of excellent IIart-
ford made floor, which [am told is made
from homegrown wheat.

One man asks a premium upon his crop
of Rye averaging over fiftyronc bushels
per acre. [1' that is so, he is-cnt’iticd, I
think.

What shall I say of Imlinu Corn, or
how express my. admiration of the abun-
dant snmplesuthat are ' exhibited at this
show, and of such excellence that no comr
ihittcc of Judges can possibly decide
