' _,oUR CELEBRATION.
Last ,Wednesday, the 84th Anniversary of
our National Independence, was celebrated
in a manner satisfactory, at least, to those
who teak the trouble to visit us on the occa-
sion. . The day was fine, and the shower of
the night previous, slight though it was, still
dampened the suffocating dust, and left a.
thin mist of cloud to veil the torrid rays of
the sun. A large concourse of . our most res-
pectable citizens, with hundreds froru all the
neighboring towns were present. The ut~
most harmony and good feeling prevailed,and
all the exercises were conducted in a manner
worthy of the occasion, and, we believe, ill a
way not unworthy of the descendants of
those brave and illustrious men whose deeds
of valor we commemorated.
The procession was formed at half past 11
o’clock,.in front of the Allis House, consis-
ting of a large body of Sons of Temperance
from the New Canaan and Norwalk Divi-
sions, headed by the Naugatuck Band. The
carriages containing President, Orator, Read-
er, and Rev. Father Haiglrt, with a line of
carriages containing 26 veterans of the war
of 1812. Then followed the Young Ameri-
ca Engine-00., composed of lads from seven
to ten years of age, headed by the South
Norwalk Band of Martial Music. Then
came the Wheeler & Wilson Band, leading
Rippowam Co. of Stamford, the guests of
Phoenix 00.; then Pllulnix Co. with their
splendid equipments of Engine and Hose
Carriage; then Silver Grey 00., headed by
Ridgefield Band, with their machine beauti-
fully festooned and wreathed' with flowers,
and with the neatcst rid of any Company on
the ground. (Had they adoptcda silver grey
colored straw hat, instead of those horribly
hot glazed caps, their outfit would have been
complete.) Compo Engine Co. of Westport
followed as the invited guests of Silver Grey
Co. The 'line of march was up Mill Hill,
around the Churches to High-st., thence
around to Main-st., up Main to the Avenue
running down to the Amphitheatre, where
the staginghad been erected for the speak-
ing, 85c: The Divine Blessing was invoked
by Rev. ‘Sylvanus Height, ill a prayer sub-
limcly fervent and eloquent. The Declara-
tion was clearly and distinctly read by Levi
Warner, Esq, one _of ourrccent legal acces-
sions, anda gentleman of personal worth
and promiSc. The Star oSpangled Banner
was effectively sung by the Norwalk Glee
Club, under the superintendencc of Prof.
Merriam of South. Norwalk. The Oration
followed by Hon.Henry C. Deming, being,
as previously announced, his eloquent trib-
ute to one of the noblest and luost daring of
all our “ patriot- sires,” “General Israel Put-
nam." ‘We' have heard but one opinion ex-
pressed concei‘ning this effort, or its appropri-
atenessas a theme for Fourth of July tulle
luadvel'si6n. Few left the grounds and the
charm of the speaker’s finished rhetoric and
earnest vindication of his hero, without
bearingawa'y with them a higher conception
of the daring valor and personal worth of
the bluff old farmer warrior.
The dinners follower]. Attire Connecti-
cut Hotel the Rippowam and Phoenix En-
gine Companies were entertained by Mr.
Kelly, its popular host. The Silver Grays
' entertained their guests at Rooms in Phoe-
nix Block. At the Allis House, the veterans
of 1812, invited guests, &c., took their dinner,
where the followingregular toasts were read
by President Carter, and responded to by the
Naugatuck Band: ' I
1. The day we celebrate. . -

12. The Ladies.

13. The Town of Norwalk.
“Home, Sweet Home.”
Several volunteer toasts were given, and
variou'sly responded to. Mr. Carter made a
very happy reply to one calling him to the
floor, Messrs. Warner, Cholwell, &c., do.
The evening was signalized by a display
of rich pieces of Fireworks, which were wit-
nessed by as large a concourse of people as
we ever saw congregated for any similar pur—
pose, the Naugatuck Band discoursing the
sweetest music during the intervals. All in
all, it was a pleasant, agreeable and satisfac-
tory old-fashioned celebration, which all
seemed to' enjoy, if we except, perlraps,those
who had-to make extra exertions as Commit-
tee-men, Police, '&c. No disorder or accident
marred the pleasures of the day.

' Trial of Fire Engines.
The trial of'Fire Engines on the Fourth,
was one of the most interesting features of
the day. To the regret of' all, Corn-
po, No. of Westport, left for home,
just previous to the trial, leaving the Trum-
pet to be contested for by the “Rippowanl”
of Stamford, “Plrmnix” and “ Silver Grav"
Engines of Norwalk. The trial commenced
about 4 o’clock, each engine taking its water
from the brook by Arnold’s Machine Shop,
and playing through 200 feet of hose, into
the square ill front of the Post Office, where
the crowd had a good opportunity of view-
ing the stream. The Engines were allowed
15 minutes timc,-aud played through a 7-8
nozzle,—-—uo allowance whatever being made
for class. “Old Rip,” a Button first class
machine, and acknowledged to be one of the
best in the State, played first, putting the
stream just 172. feet. “Phoenix"—a Sickles
second class—followed, bursting her hosc
three times, but her stream having reached
173 ft. 4 inches, the company were satisfied
without another trial. “Silver Gray” did
walk—much better than was expected,—
playing 122 feet and some inches. After the
trial, the Norwalk companies drew up in the
square and awaited the decision of the judg-
es, which was given—awarding the Trumpet
to Phoenix. ‘
The result of the trial was a surprise to
all ; it being the universal opinion that “Rip.
powam” would beat. The “Phoenix Boys”
felt perfectly “happy" over their success, and
gave cheer after cheer for “Old Rip,” “Silver
Gray,” for “Compo,” &c. The best of feel-
ing prevailed between the several companies
throughout the trial, which was not impair-
ed in the least by the result.

W Selleck has for sale one of the best

ill a kind spirit, yet withholds not the truth,
and the whole truth concerning the practical
workings of the systclu which now agitates

strife. Governor Buckingham in a letter to
the author says :_

tensron and perpetuation of an institution so

All Hail Oregon l—By the last California
steamer, news was received from Oregon
which leads us to believe that she ilras repu-
diated Joe Lane and wheeled into the Re-
publican ranks. ' The Republicans and Anti-
Lecompton Democrats have a majority in
the Legislature. As this Legislature elects-
the two U. S. Senators, Lane and Smith will
probably have to vacate their seats.‘ Oregon
has been counted on for Breckenridge and
Lane, but “The best laid schemes of mice and
then off gang aglay,” and Lane is repudiated
at home. This defeat of the Democracy was
not brought about by reason of their split at
Baltimore, as the news of the smash up there
had not of course reached Oregon or even
CalifOrrria.

W One of the most intensely patriotic
features of the celebration, was the spread of ,
bunt-ing in all sections of thetown. Private
residences, public flag-staffs, principal build-
ings, &c., with all the sailing craft in our
harbor, were gaily decorated with the stars
and stripes. Across from our Building was
stretched the GAZETTE flag, undcr'hung with
the inscription, “ W'clcome the Press, Orator,
Firemen and Music." Above GAZETTE
BUILDING entrance the bust of Franklin, gai-
ly wreatlrcd and fcstooned with flowers by
our lady friends, and “ The Patriot \Pl'l'llll’l'"
lettered out from the lilies, pinks and roses.
A large national flag floated overhead, while
from all the twenty windows of our edifice a
smaller ensign flauntcd ill the breeze. Down
Water street the Engine House of Phoenix
Co. was surmounted with one ensign, while
another floated from”a cord cross the -strcet,
With the word “WELCOME” attached. Ad-
joining, the storc of John Kecna was decora-
ted with two American flags, from either
corner of his new building'., while ,from his
staff floated the national color of “swatc old
Ireland," its yellow harp beautifully embla-
zoned on its dark green folds. \Vc learn
this was made and presented to, Mr. chna
by several young ladies of the town.
Capt. Greene fiaurrted the Adriatic‘s flag,

THE FOURTH AT DARIL‘N !
The American fowl of Liberty who has
so long“laill 'dormanl“ and broodcd ill si-
lence ill this large, enterprising and patriotic
town, awoke from his slumber, flappcd his
wings, and gave three shrieks for General
Jackson.
The“order of exercises” and “bill of fare"
was brilliant, varied, interesting, entertaining,
instructive and satisfactory, and reflects un-
dying credit to the “young and popular”
men ofspirit, who originated it, and so suc—
cessfully carried it through to its termination.
ORDER or EXECISES.
I. At midnight a small boy, hired to sit up,
pokes the bird with a sharp stick, who gives
one shriek, and then—all is still—save the
ceaseless snore of nature, ‘wrapt in c ammy
sleep. Q
2. One hour before sun-rise, All is still.
3. Sunrise. The only BELL-7mm in the
place (w)rz"ngs his hands.
4, Six o’clock. Three torpedoes are snap-
ped and one fire—cracker fizzed; by means
of which the town is aroused, and rushes out
in affright to ascertain “what’s up.”
5. The Postmaster snaps a cap, and spanks
his youngest child—after which three cheers
are given for Breckenridge and Douglas.—
The town is again aroused. _
6. The Black Republican Deacon treats
the town to Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup.
The town retires once more, and—all is still.
7. The two leading patriots step on ihc
public square, and pull a snapping cracker.
8. All is still. -
9. Noon. By special arrangement the
Great Eastern arrives at Scotch Cove. A Sa-
lute of two fire-crackers is fired.
10. Small boy announces that General
Jackson is dead. Gloom pervades the town.
11. An ode to Liberty is performed by the
full choir of the Cong. Ch.
12. The Maine Law is read by the Assist-
ant Postmaster. Thc town takes off its hat
and gives assent.
13. Yankee Doodle is whistlcd.
14. Sunset. Fireworks. A yellow cat is
soaked in tar, touched off and drawn back-
wards arouud the public square.
15. The Grand Marshal snaps his fingers.
16. Eight P. M. The town goes to bed.
17. 8 1-2 P. M. All is still. ‘
The expense, which was‘ enormous, was
promptly met by subscription. The enter-
taiument given was luxurious, and the whole
town returned to their peaceful couches,
filled to overflowing with love to their coun-
try, their towu and themselves, and filled
with regret that the great Jackson had been
so suddenly called away.
' Negotiations are being made for the pur-
pose of purchasing the Great Eastern—to run
between this port and Coscob in the Oyster
business.
Breckenridge stock is high here—and very
little doubt is entertained but that the town
will go either Democratic or Republicamnext
fall. The probabilties are that if it does not
go one—it will the other. At least we think
so—but may be mistaken.

Poster for a copy of thfl’resident’s message
of June 22nd, 1860, wherein Mr. Buchanan
reiterates, in still more offensive shape, his
objections to lraviug his official acts overhaul-
cd by Congress. He pettifogs his case, on
' the ground that as the House of Representa-
tive poscsscs the sole power of impeachment,
they must not investigate the President’s con‘
duct except with a view to impeachment.—
The sophistry and hollowness of this claim is
too patent for argument. As if the possession
of the inlpeaclring power cut off the general
right to investigate?

and Dennis Platt of Norwalk. On their re-

resolved that while it regretted the new pol-

name of “Church Erlensl'on,” it freely conced-
cd that all men must adopt such agencies of
cvangelization as seem to them mostlikely to
be effectivc' that it declined the proposed

“Perhaps the motives of your own favorite
son (Buchanan), who we elevated in 1856
(voices, “Spare us,” “We’ll do so no more,”
and laughter),” were pure; perhaps he really
designed doing what was right when he took
the oath of office ; but his ambition was great;
he desired to control, and he sought false
counsels. The power he sought has depart-
ed from him forever, and I say it with all re-
spect—I say it withall modesty—that when
the Democratic party shall have survived the
Admillstration, it will have accomplished d
triumph that no party on, the face of the earth

IMPORTANT To Housrsxnurnus—We have

Newton, of London, England, which wchave
found to possess remarkable qualities as acc-
nrent for glass, china, iron stone and queens-

the United States, will also ccnrent met~

adhere so firmly to glass as to be difficult to
detach.
We have tested it on a large India china
punch bowl, which was broken in many
pieces. ' It is now so perfectly mended as to
require close inspection to discover the frac-
ture, and so strong as to make it as useful
as ever.
We have also seen a glass dish mended
with it—the adhesion was so great that with
all our strength we could not pull it apart.
A few drops of the enamel applied cold with
a brush snfliced for the bowl above mention-
ed. It is clear and colorless, leaving no stain
to mark the course of the fracture. It is not
affected by fire, water, alcohol or acid—is free
from any acrid quality, and is perfectly irr-
nocent on the tongue. Many a housekeeper
has some fancy or favorite article broken,
which might easily be restored to utility by
a few drops of this content, which even a
child could apply, and when we consider the

Chalking down the Accounts.
Deacon P. had taken. his second wife horuc
to keep house for him. One day he went
away on business. For a farmer, he was a
man of considerable business for those times,
but had adopted a custom quite common in
those days, of chalking his accounts down
on the doors and partitions in the house.—
During his absence, his new wife, (as new
ones are apt to) took the opportunity to clean
up. On her appearance into his “counting
room," a slovcnislr appearance was presented
on the doors and partitions. Not being
ruuch accustomed to writing, and therefore
not apprehensive of doing damage, she in—
stantly made up her mind to “ set things a
little lnore to rights." She accordingly went
to work with mop and cloth, and a determi-
nation to rub out “them ere chalk marks.”—
The Deacon-soon rcturned,and went to make
an entry of his account for t re day. But
imagine his surprise when he beheld all his
old accountsrubbcd out. In a moment he
called to his wife, (who was entirely uncon-
scious of the mischief she had (10110,) and
said, “You have ondonc rue, wife." “Why,
what’s the matter, Mr. P. ‘3" “ You have
urbbcd out all my accounts." “Why, la me,
I didn’t know as you kept your accounts in.
the milk room." Being newly married and
not easily provoked, ire went to work repair-
ing the loss. He was busy with his chalk a
long while. At last he called to his beloved
and said, “I don’t know but I have got about
as much down as I had before, and I think
it is against great deal holler men.”

The Schuyler OverIssue of Railroad
Stock.
J udgc Ingrahum, of the supreme court at
New York cifv, has rendered a dcclsrorr rrpon
road stock, which is to the effect that the
7,000 shares issued before October, 1853, are
good and valid, while the 19,145 issued be—
tween tlurt time and July, 1854, are worthless
as stock. Of the latter, 1,648 shares that
had not been entered on the transfer books
are utterly thrown out, and their holders, en-
joined from ever presenting them; the re-
rnaining 17,467 of this lot, that had been so
entered, may be sued as a matter of compen-
sation. "The decision is claimed to be tech-
nical, in this respect, in favor of the company
and the holders of the 17,000 shares being
placed in the position of creditors of the road
can bring action to recover in full the money
paid for the stock, a position of more val e
than recognition as mere stockholders. I s
, now only a question of time with the road as
to the payment, and the spurious stock has
become more valuable than the original issues.
Tile Cbmmercial Advertiser says: “In a gen-
cral way the decision may be said to be fa-
vorable to the plaintiffs (the railroad com-
pany,) as a large portion of the so called spu-
rious stock—nearly 20,000 shares—were de-
clared void and ordered cancelled; and the
parties holding such shares are to be restrain-
ed from selling them or sueing the company.
Such shares or certificates as were issued pri-
or to October 1853, were, ill the opinion of
the judge, good and valid. In the matter of
costs the plaintiffs and defendants stand on
an equal footing, as no costs are given against
the plaintiffs.”

A HEROINE IN Summon—The Hartford
Couraut gives the following account of an in-
cident of thrilling interest that happened in
Saybrook last week:
The wife of a sea-captain, residing at Say-
brook, was returning from a visit to a neigh-
bor, in the evening, wlreu she was followed
by two men. She overheard them say, the
“captain is gone" and “there must be consid-
erable money in the house.“ Thelady, upon
reaching home, conclud l to await the arri—
val of the parties who, s rc had no doubt, in-
tended to rob the house during the night.—
Slre had not long to wait, for at eleven
o‘clock, a summons carue to open the door.—
Iustead of complying, she raised a chamber
window and inquired who was there? No
response came to this or further inquiries,
and she told tlrcnr to leave or she would
shoot them: They then tried to affect an en-
trance by clambering upon a shed, but one
of them fell, and both returned to the front
door which they atterupted to force. The
lady, taking a revolver ill one hand and a
candle ill the other, stood at the door to
await the issue. In a few ruinutes the burs
glars hadbrokcrr it ill, when she told them
that if they moved a. step towards coming in-
to the house they were dead men. They
looked at her, consulted together a few ruin-
utcs, and then went away, declining to take
the risk. After the peril was over, she re-
turned to her two children, exhausted with
the tension to which her nerves and courage
had been subjected. Such a woman as that
is worth having ill the house, and we regret
being unable to give her name.

W All utterly incomprehensible notion
has got into Illany people’s heads that the
multiplication of candidates for the presiden-
cy has increased the probability that the elec-
tion will devolve upon the House of Repre-
sentatives. A single glance will show that
precisely the reverse is true. Excepting
Sorrtlr Carolina, which is practically an aris-
tocracy and not a republic, and where the
electors are chosen by the legislature, ill all
the states a plurality elects. Now the repub-
lican party is perfectly united compact and
enthusiastic. Before the Charleston-Balti-
more Convention it was confident of victory.
That convention divided and nominated two
candidates. Attempts at compromise are
sternly resisted by the Douglas men, who
have ruost of the weak claims to regularity,
and also by the leading Breckinridge men,
with the power and money of the adminis-
tration to back them.
Without question, tickets will be run by
each faction in most of the northern states, to
say the very least, and especially in the more
doubtful ones. Could the republicans ask
anything more filvorable? And supposing
that aDougias-Bell-Brcckinridgc combination
electorial ticket could by any possibility be
arranged throughout the North, we should
have as little, perhaps less, to fear. Its inllar-
. mouious fighting factions thus shaken togeth-
er in a bag, would kill each other faster than
we, unassisted, could possibly dispose of them.
The republicans must work of course. Let
them do it heartily and the most glorious vic
tory on record awaits them.

winch has no e nal in America or in Europe, is about
to traverse the tate of Connecticut. This Collossal

where else in t e world, arid the expenses exceed
those of any four Circnses in the United States.—
With however, arecklessness of lavish expenditure
peculiar to himself, Mr. Nixon has also engaged “OLD
GRIZZLY Alums,“ the great California Hunter and
his GRIZZLY BEAns, all captured and tamed by him—
self-the result of which is an exhibition of Savage
Dancing Grizzly Bears—Laughing Grizzly Bear:
— Crying Bears— Uli mbing Bears—Bears which turn
Somersaults—aud Bears that do ere ry thing but~
speak! When it is added that all of these won erful
and delightful attractions are combined, and exhibit-
ed at a price so low as to seem absurd, (25 cents) It is
needless to say that this immense concentration of
Amusements is at once the most astounding and ex-
tensive, as well as the chea est Exhibition ever wit-
nessed in any country. an as such‘I confidently re-
