I FOR PRESIDENT, '
ABRAHAM LINCOLN,
of Illinois.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
HANNIBAL HAMLIN,
of Maine.
GELEEEA'IION or THE .POURTH
,IN NORWALK.
The question of celebrating, we presume,
may newbie considered definitely settled. A
srrflicient ,3 amount has. already been sub-
scribed to render the financial part a certain-
ty. A committe was appointed, with - in-
structiOns to procure ,the HON. HENRY C.
DEMING, as Orator of the day, which duty
has been performed and Mr. Deming has ac'
cepted the invitation Of'our‘ citizens. Mr.
F. F. Farwell has generouSly tendered the
free use of his grounds—the Amphitheatre,
where the staging will be erected, and the
address delivered. 1’ The firemen Will add a
special attraction to the procession, as they
design inviting several companies from the
adjoining tOwES.I i The fireworks in the even-
ing, will also be an important feature. We
shall be able 'to publish a perfected Pro-
gramme in. our next. The Committee, of
Arrangements are requested to meet at the
Allis House this Tuesday evening. '

W Honest,and pure and unselfish as he,
in Connecticut, at least, is known to be, Sec-
retary Toucey ; our own Mr. Toucey, ob-
jects, decidedly objects; in fact, vehemently
objects, to the Covode Committee raking
over any of those little private affairs where-
in he has figured for the good of the democ-
racy first, and the Navy department last.—
He sent in his manifesto to the House, chal-
lenging the right of Congress to look after
his stewardship. But his kicking and snar-
ling availed nothing; a vote of censure 'Of
the President and Secretary passed the
House and was augmented by the votes of
such men as Roger A. Pryor of Va. How
dark~ must be that record of corruption and
fraud when such as he can't stomach it ?
M.» ‘
WRITTIER.-Selleck has just received hop-
ies of Ticknor 85 (Field’s recent beautiful
edition of that. most charming of all Ameris
can Poets, Whittier’s Poems. There is a
gushing copiousness and richness in some of
his versifications unsurpassed in the' language.
W The Japanese Embassy were received
by the public autlrorittes of New York city,
on Saturday afternoon last. They seemed to
enjoy themselves and to be perfectly at home
amid the strange sights that greeted their
eyes. The Confidence made an excursion
down th'e'bay, and met the steamer on which
they were being conveyed to the city.

WRev. Dr. Hall arrived in town last
week, an occupied the pulpit on Sundaywhere
for so many years he had previously minister-
ed. His looks indicate good health,and his ser-
mons all the clearneSs, force and earnestness
of “twenty years ago.”
O»
Mr. Milhurn’s Lecture.
‘ The -efl‘ort of the “ Blind Preacher” at
Lynes’ Hall on Friday Evening lash-was to
say the least, a most truthful, original, and
well expressed delineation of what every
man with eyes is compelled to see in England.
To us, the details of John Bull’s peculiarities,
were exceedingly rich and enterting, and re-
called to our own minds, a dozen receptiOns,
introductions, &c., where we were entertain-
a half hour or more, by standing face to face
with the party, to the honor of whose ac-
quaintance we had been commended, while
he should alternately scrutinize us and our
letters. His imitation Of the “spread eagle”
style of oratory of our country, was not more
perfect than the mumbling, hesitating delive-
ry of the English Speaker. Should half the
speakers, who spread themselves in our pres-
ent Congress, attempt to speak before an
English audience, the crowd would instinct.
ivcly vote them mad. Yet there is very
much to admire in honest, portly, John Bull,
even though he never gives, or can take, or
even understand a jokes As for the lecturer,
the favorable impression he" has made upon
our people, we trust, will be the means of
his being called hither again to give us his
touches of Western life.

Flag Lost.
In the simplicity of our hearts, and to ,
show our magnanimity, pending our State
canvass last Spring, we loaned- our demo-
cratic friends one of those emblenrs of our
national freedom, which erst had done Re-
publican duty on the flag staff surmountirrg
the Gazette Building. which flag we have
since “sought diligently with tears,” (almost)
yet have been unable to find it. Now We
have no doubt but that some honest demo-
crat has it in safe keeping, and only awaits
a knowledge of our loss to return it to its
rightful owner. The patriotic season draws
to an apex—we shall need the hunting, and
hope for its immediate return, without being
compelled to ask for it any mo re pointedly.

WThe Rev. John R. Williams, of Mil-
ton, has received and accepted a unanimous
call'to the RectOrship of Christ’s Church,
Westport, and will enter on theduties of the
same on the second Sunday in July next.

WATER STREET.+M1'. John Keena, who
has been building adjoining thnix Compa-
ny’s Engine House, has his edifice ready for
occupancy. It is another ornament to the
street. Mr. Wm. C. Street is erecting a
double building immediately opposite, while
on the corner in‘front of us,- hammers and
trowels are being vigorously plied in the
rearing of a brick block for Mr. James Mitch-
ell and Wm. K. James. This will soon be
one of the principal business avenues of the
town.

W” That famous “ Greeley Letter" has
finally been furnished Mr. Greeley, who
prints it entire in the Tribune. It is an open,
frank, and manly document, that. no honest
man need be ashamed of writing. We. are
not surprised, hOwever, that the “ great
statesman” did notcare”. to have it given to
the world. We should publish it'would our
limits admit.

Gregory’s Point House. .
When our friend Nutter took this charming
summer retreat, we were at a loss to know
how and in What way he Would be able to
dispose of all his physical energy. It seems
that his ambition has already cOnsummated
a steamboat dock, and that the Confidence
will hereafter make regular stops at the point.
This will be a great convenience to the .West--
port and our down town citizens.

W Durand’s French Lustre. See adv.
I‘Honest: Old Abe."
We are indebted to Lyman Beard, Esq, of
Chicago, for one large and three smaller pho-
tographic likenesses of the Peoples’ Candidate
for President. They are taken from life, and
while we must confess that we have seen as
good looking men, even in Connecticut, we
can say farther, that no one can look at
those eyes, and the irregular lineaments of
that face, without the instinctive conviction
that the man could be trusted anywhere and
ererywhere. It is said that ladies of good sense
and judgment, always pick for homely men,
(we know one who did,)wlriclr accounts, in a.
measure, perhaps, for his being so popular.
with them, although what woman is there in
this broad land whose heart and admiration
would not be won by the man, who, when
informed of his nomination .to the highest
position human ambition can aspire to, in;
stead of making known his good fortune to
the eager crowd about him, quietly folds his
dispatch and departs for his home, remarking
in the honest simplicity of his nature—
"There is a little woman down at our house,
who would like to see this.” What a vol-
ume of character; whata touch of nature in
those few words. And those who think the
wives and mothers of the country will over-
look or forget it, know very little of .the
promptings of our humanity.
Our friend writes us—“ I send you a few
photographs'of “Honest Old Abe” that you
may see him as ire is—because of the many
frightful caricatures of him about. It is true,
he i8 far from being a handsome man even in
his best estate, but then we know him to be
qood and true and honest to a fault, and what
is 'cht of all, he will be our next President.”—
We have never doubted the fact.

WWc are glad to notice that the “spirit of
improvement” which for the past year seems
to have been awakened to new life in our vil-
lage, has extended to the lst Congregational
Church, and this gloomy, sombre and forbid-
ding looking edifice, so far as its externals
are concerned, is to be re-painted some cheer-
ful, and we hope, some natural color.

New Enterprise.
As will be seen by adv. a meeting is to be
held at our office for the purpose of forming
a company to erect a first class Summer
Boarding House in Norwalk, The project
originated with several of our best citizens,
and contemplates the purchase of the
“old Mott Property,” and the putting up of
such an institution as all admit to have be-
come a public necessity here in Norwalk,
We hope to see a full meeting of our capital-
ists. ‘

CAUGHT AN EEL—Our friend Knapp, in
addition to his many other taking ways, gave ,
us evidence last Saturday P. M. that. he was
also an expert with “ the rod and line.” Ob-
serving a huge eel gyrating about in the wa-
ters beneath his store,as if, like many a meek
eyed maiden, entirely willing to accept the
first offer, he dropped a bait, and forthwith
Mr. eel “ consented.” Here commenced a.
scene of twisting and squirming, leaping and
jerking, without a. parallel, (unless it shall be
furnished by our democratic friends this week
at Baltimore,) but as man hath dominion
oyer the fishes,and the cord was very strong,
the lithe squirmer was ultimately introduced
to a new element,~and after undergoing that
delectable transformation which eels and
democrats sooner or later have to come to,
was found to weigh thgee pounds.

GODEY FOREVER—Our old friend Godey
continues as rich, as racy, and as unrivaled
as when twenty years ago we used to, while
away the unworked hours of our “devilslrip”
perusing its graceful pages. “ Zwenty yea-rs
ago,” it startles us to think of it! Yet the
score years have come and gone, and with
every coming month Godey has romade its
faithful appearance at the desk Of the old
GAZETTE. And what is more wonderful than
all, without, we believe, the failure of a. sin-
9142 copy. Long live Godey and his noble

Murder in Hartford.
Soon after ten o’clock Sunday forenoon, a
man named Michael Brady, was stabbed in
the neck with a shoe knife by Thomas Wil-
son, and falling upon the floor, died five min-
utes afterwards. Cause-4mm.
' ‘tion of censure on the contracts of the Presi-
(Fbrrespondcnm' of the (hurdle.
A controversy has arisen between two 0111- I
inentjournalists of New York, in regard to i
the propriety of introducing Rails into Re—
publican meetings—Rails. said to have been
split by the distinguished nominee of the
Republican Party. We do not wish to in-
dulge in any “hair splitting“ in regard to
this subject, yet we candidly confess that we
are unable to see the least impropriety in ex-
hibiting the Rails said to have been split by
Abraham Lincoln. 0n the contrary, we
consider such action not only perfectly prop-
er but commendable also. Let us consider
the circumstances. Here is a young man
who commences life at the bottom of the
ladder, he earns his bread by the labor of
his hands and the meat of his brow, he
commences the struggle of life relying solely
upon himself, without money, without influ-
ential friends, with nothing save his own
clear head and his own strong am, he rises
from comparative obscurity, up step by step
to the highest eminence. Whether working
as a common laborer for'others, or whether,
at the age of nineteen, splitting rails to fence
in his oyvn land, we find him devoted in all
the occupations of his early years to his own
improvement. We see him working through
the day, and in the. evening, by the light of
his fire, reading ' History, Blackstone, Arc.
Those who have struggled with adversity,
who have bravely met and overcome Obsta-
cles, are. better qualified to judge and appre-
ciate the life of : Abraham Lincoln. The
greatest men of the world have been those
who. have ,risen ' by virtue of their own
strength. In .'these days, when a mighty
party has sprung into existence, ich de-
clares in behalf of Free Labor for the migh-
ty territories of the West—which declares
itself in favor of standing by and upholding
the dignity of labor, what more fitting, ”what
truer representative of its principles and its
policy could it have than Abraham Lincoln“
:1 man fresh from the people, himself the
product of free institutions, the embodiment
of sound and correct political principles.—
Those who have seen Lincoln, who have
either heard him or read his speeches, are re-
minded of one thing particularly. 'He is as
perfectly honest in argument as in everything
else ; he will not resort to sophistry nor mis-
statement of facts, he meets his adversary
fairly and squarely, and answers argument
for argument. Senator Benjamin of Lousi-
aua, in contrasting the speeches of Lincoln
with those of Douglas, delivered in the late
memorable campaign in, Illinois, paid'a'higlr
and merited compliment to the ability and
downright honesty Of the former. He
charged Douglas with stealing Lincoln’s ar-
gumentsagainst the Dred Scott decision,and
using them as his own in his celebrated Har-
per‘s Magazine article. He established the
charge by reading from a. speech Of Mr. Lin-
coln, delivered in Illinois sometime previous
.to the Magazine article. There is one fact
which establishes the ability of Mr. Lincoln
beyond a question. After the exciting con-
test in Illinois, the Republican State Commit-
tee published the speeches of Lincoln and
Douglas, as they were delivered, in one large
volume, and are now issrn'ng the same as a
campaign document. Those who have seen
and heard Mr. Lincoln need no information
in regard to his. ability. _ He has shown him-
self to be too much of a giant for the other
one, and we doubt very much if there can
be found his equal in the Republican Party-
Still we do not wish to place the man above
the principles of the party, our motto is not
“ principles not men,” but “ principles and
men.” We ask for no better man to carry
out the principles of the Republican Party
than Abraham Lincoln. We desire no more
forcible reminder, no stronger argument,
nothing more suggestive of his life and char-
acter, his toils and his triumphs, than the
Well chosen emblem. L

a?“ We received last week a cornmunica—
tion speaking in high terms of commendation
of a job of work executed,by A. Sellecklb Co.
As it came from an entirely disinterested
source, and no object was sought or designed
other than afrank expression of merit, where
it was thought deserved, some surprise has
been manifested that we did notgive it place.
We have only to say that we entirely eon-
cur in all that the writer was pleased to say,
but so long as there exists more or less com-
petiorr, in the same line of business, among
our patrons, we cannot deviate from our set-
tled policy of strict impartiality.

NEW HAVEN.-If any‘of' our friends are at a loss
where to “ hang out" when at the City of Elms, let
rrs commend them to the kind attentions and foster-
ing care of our friend SCEANTON Of the Tontine. He
seems to take to Hotel—keeping with far more native
grace and skill than to the calico trade—and he used
to be “ some" on that. He has a most charming and
lovely rural resort, also, at Guilford, where invalids
and others seeking rest and cooling shades and breez-
es can find a most rational and comfortable retreat.
And this reminds us to speak of UPSON’S SAvINo
ROCK HOUSE, one of the most delightful spots “ the
whole shore along,” and with “ UP” to cater for‘the
appetite, who couldn’t ‘wax fat and be jolly 2‘ There
is nothing at Newport or'Nahant that can compare
with its natural beauty of location or the charming
picturesqneness Of its surroundings. He is moreover
close to the railroad and has a telegraph in the House
gotten up under his own individual auspices, under
old Burton’s coffin conviction that it “ would be so
handy to have in the family." It is about thirty min-
Ites ride from the New Haven, and about five from
the West Haven Depots. We intend, (so soon as
able,) .to gird up our loins, gather together our
wife and wee ones, and, with one of our “cuttlc,”
make a descent upon this charming institution.

We are indebted, as we infer, to our friends of the

containing interesting statistics concerning the hats
ting trade in Danbury, from 1780, when Zadoc Bene-
dict, his one journeyman and two apprentices, made
hats at the rate of three per day, until 1859, when the
town of Danbury turned off 1,486,440 for the year.

SPRINGFIELD, 111., May 23d, 1860.
Hon. GEORGE ASIIMUN,
szn'dent of the Miti‘onal Republican Conten-
1071.
Sin—I accept the nomination tendered me
by the convention over which you presided,
and of which I am formally ap rised in the
letter of1yourself and others, ng as a com-
mittee o the convention, for that purpose.
The declaration of principles and senti-
ments, which accompanies your letter, meets
my approval; and it shall be my care not to
vrolate or disregard it in any art. ‘
Imploringzthe assistance 0 divine Provi-
dence, and with due regard to the views and
feelings of all who were reprsented in t e I
convention; to the rights of all the States,
and territories and people of the nation; to
the inviolability Of the Constitution, and the
perpetual union, harmony and prosperity of
all, I am most happy to co-operate‘ for the
practical success of the principles declared by
the convention. ‘
Your obliged friend and fellow-citizen,
A RAHAM LINCOLN.
The letter of Mr. H. (dated 30th ult.) is
somewhat longer. The only paragraph of
importance is the following:
It is to be observed, in connection-with the
domgs of the Republican Convention, that a
paramount object with us is, to preserve the
normal cOndition of our territorial domain as .
homes for free men. The able advocate and
defender of Republican principles whom you
have nominated for the highest place that
can gratify the ambition ofman, comes from
a State which has been made what it is, by
special action in that respect, of the wise
men who founded our institutions. The
rights of free labor have there been vindica-
ted and maintained. The thrift and. enter-
prise which so distinguish Illinois, one of the
flourishing States of the glorious West, we
wopld sec secured mall the territories ofthe
Union; and restore peace and harmony to
the whole country, by bringing back the
government to, what it was under the wise
and patriotic men who created it. If the Re-
publicans shall succeed in that object, astbey
hope, they willbe held in grateful remem-
brance by the busy and teeming millions of
future ages.”

NATURE 18 Tu GREAT Pursrcux.—This is now
admitted by the medical profession, as a fundamental
principle of healing science. It is wisely provided
by the human economy, that whenever anything is
wrong in the physical system, the Retinal forces of
the body are brought to bear to expel the disease.—
The great aim, therefore, is to strengthen the natural
powers. . This has been kept in view by the skillful
compounders of Dr. J. HosnT-nrn’s Dunne, which
operate to give fresh vitality to‘all the organs of the
body. The effect of this medicine upon the stomach,
the liver and the kidneys, are prompt and decisive.—
The patient who is wise enough to quit dragging and
try the ‘f Bltters,’_‘ soon feels as iflre had takenanew
lease of life, and as he continues the use of the article
he is overjoyed to find the streams ofhealth coursing
hiaframc. Let all, from whose cheek the
bloom has departed, give Dr. J. Hostetter’s Celebra-
ted Bittors a trial.
