do, you would say that the worst crimes are some-

any of‘ us exactly want to kill him, but; in case he
should fall overboard, I don’t believe any more lines
would be lost in trying to save him! The Commis-

BOLD ROBBERY.

One of the moSt tantalizing exploits of a
horse thief of which we have any record,was
perpetrated upon Chas. C. Betts, Esq., of
Winnipauk, on Tuesday night, the 31st ult.
The stable was entered while a watchman
was perambulating around, and the horse
harnessed to a new carriage, three Sleigh
Robes were hunted up, and a set of single
Harness packed into the buggy, and then
crossing the street a sett of double Harness
was taken from the barn of John D. Louns-
bury, and with the whole the thief made off
without detection. He was seen on the road,
but the person supposing it to be Mr. Betts,of
course took no measures for his arrest. . He
has got to be a smart thief to get this animal
off without detection, as there is not anoth-
er in town, probably,-so prominently marked
or so easily identified. Mr. Betta offers $100
remand for the l'eCOvery of the property and
conviction of the thief. See his adv.

WMI‘. Ferry addressed a large and en-

publican Organization of New York City, on
Tuesday evening last. His address was well
received and frequently applauded. The Re-
publican fires burn brightly in New York.—
A Delegation numbering some 25 or 30 from
the Philadelphia Continental Club were pres-
ent and the Chairman in a short speech fol-
lowing Mr. Ferry’s, stated that their organi-
zation numbered Meaty-three Hundred, eve-
ry one of whom voted for Fillmore in 1856.
That the Democracy tried the fox and raven
fable upon them then with success, but hav-
ing once been cajoled cut of their cheese, 10-

coming contest, but the entire band should
go solid for honest old Abe.

The Regagta at Roton Poi lit.

The recent rains having laid the dust,
everything that had wheels, drawn by all
sorts of horses, were early on their way to
Baton Point, the field of an anticipated day’s
pleasure. The Race being open to all boats
in Fairfield County—L—extended its interest
very much—and many new and stray crafts
were on hand.

The Stake Boat was anchored nine miles
from the starting point, just west and abreast
of Eaton’s Neck light. The signal for start-
ing,tbe firing of the gun,was given at 12 M.,
sharp. The wind was fresh and fair, and
away they flew. They rounded the Stake
Boat to the east in the following order:

 

«

Annie Laurie, Bridgeport, 1 o‘lk 1 m
Tom Thumb, “ 1 “ 1:30
Richard, Norwalk, 1 “ 2:10
Media, “ 1 “ 5 in
Eclipse, “ 1 “ 5:10
Santa Claus, “ 1 1 “ 5:50
A. H. Robbins, “ 1 “ 6:20
Julia, ‘ 1 “ 6:40
Van Zandt, Westport, 1 “ 8:30
Julia, “ 1 “ 3:50
Lydia Austin Cole, Norwalk, 1 “ 4 m
Pctril, “ 1 “ 1&15
Heorine, “ 1 “ 12:35

After rounding the Stake Boat the crafts
were put. upon their merits. The wind had
subsided, and those who early ,in the day
thought it impossible for the small Boats to
carry their canvass, were disappointed; in
fact, the wind was too light for a majority of
. the Boats. The Annie Laurie of Bridgeport
——cntercd as first class—led around and was
laying into the Wind‘s eye beautifully, when
about two miles after doubling, she carried
away her Hallyards and down went the sail.
The “Lydia Austin Coles" met with the same
fate. The Santa Claus followed suit in mis-
fortune ; and one can easily imagine the dis-
appointment at such fatc,—-it was too bad,
—but their gallant crews bore their misfor-
tune bravely—as sailors should.

The Prizes were awarded as follows :

lst Class—Tom Tliumb,‘of Bridgeport, $20
2d Class—Eclipse, of Norwalk, $20
3d Class—Petril, “ $10

Codfish Banks off Block:Islands. The wind
springing up fresh by 10 o’clock, they were
in full view of the romantic Island, while
the “rolling sea” soon commenced a renewal
of hostilities, in the stomachic regions of
Messrs. Knapp, Case and Curtis, who were
not long in acquitting themselves. in most
gallant Grampml style, with their yearning
countenances to the sea.

Up to this period we have been signally
favored with winds favorable to our course
and wishes in every instance, but it is entire-
ly too lively for quiet fishing to-day. At din-
ner call but mm ventured to take seats at the
table, and some of these, like Democraticpol-
iticians looked dreadfully discouraged. veg
sel pitched so badly that fishing was at adia-
count and we returned to the Island for an-
chorage for the night, some of the party go-
ing ashore. Morning 01‘ 28th, weighed an-
chor and made for the Main, and while get-
ting otl, Capt. Ferris and crew hauled iii a
monster shark, full 9 feet long. As our scale
would weigh but. 300 lbs, the venerable
Commodore proposed we weigh him as far
we could and guess at the balance of his spe-
cific gravity (the fish’s,not the Commodore’s.)
By this criterion, it was honestly conjectured
that the voracious monster must weigh at
least 550 lbs !

During supper, acry was heard of "
fish,” when up rushed each able bodied man,
capable of doing duty at meals, when 10, sure
enough, in the dim distance was seen an
enormous fish, and blue'cnougll, too, dangling.

- from the squid of the Commissary General.—

The General seized the line and with almost
frantic exertions, and eyeballs projecting
almost as fearfully as a lobster’s, rushed
the captured victim up to the stern of tile ves-
sel, when with one superhuman jerk he land‘
ed plump on deck—not a blue fish but his
blue overhauls! It seems that some one of
the number who began to feel a. little easier
about the viscera, yet not well enough to go.
down to tea, had wickedly resolved that they
should not have all the fun below, and so had
prepared this successful “sell.” It seemed
rather hard, however, that it should have
been at the Commissary's expense, for he had
but just got rid of his Block Island Cannibal,
and we had none of us scarcely begun to
breathe easy or natural again. Standing off
for Falmoutll, we soon got out of sight of
land, and to many of us this was an event'of
our lives. About a dozen whales Were spout-
ing and blowing within full view of the' yes-
sel for some two hours or more, occasioning
a most exciting time among our crew.
Falling ill with two fishing smacks which
were taking in cod very fast, we laid to and
dropped lines, catching some filly cod in a
very short space of time. At 9 P. M. We
were abreast GayHead Light, making rapid-
ly for Falmoutb, when it was deemed beat to
change our course and run in for New 'Bed-
i‘ord, which we reached about daylight. This
day being Sunday, our club in a body attend-
e'd Dr. Parker’s Church. The pulpit was oc-
cupied by an aged clergyman, however, who
I surprised us all by reading the announcement
that Dr. Austin of Connecticut would preach
there in the afternoon. Even our Chaplain
'was taken by surprise as he had not _ .31
asked to preach. But at the close of the ser-
vice lle was'sostrongly urged that be com-
plied, and delivered an eloquent and impres-
sive discourse. We here smade the personal
acquaintance of several of the prominent cit.
izens of Nethedford, many‘ of whom :1 come
on board our craft and expressed. their sur-
prise ilnd pleasure at seeing the air of com-
fort which pervaded every part of our craft
and outfit. ~
Up to 3 o'clock of - Monday was occupied
in riding and strolling about the city, and en-
joying the hospitalities of the citizens, to
whose homes and grounds we were invited.
We reached Falmouth next on our course,
after various vicissitudes and some dangers,
in consequences of having no pilot, where
we were greeted\by a large number of per-
sons, relatives, acquaintances, &c., of some
of our Club. Left Fslmoutll at 3 P. M. and
lay to for she night at Edgartown. en route
for Nantucket. The wind coming out strong

tide, very much to our discomfort. Here We
were joined by the “Mountain Home,” a'
schooner with a company of 12 'for New.
York on board, called the “Onward Club."
They came on board of us, admired. our ar-
rangements, pal-took of our hospitalities and
departed, with three cheers from the Gram-
pus Club, which they responded to 'by firing
a cannon which they had on board.

We arrived at Nantucket at about 1 1-2
o‘clock, Aug. 2d, and reconnoitered tille town
and were visited and kindly received by large
numbers of the citizens. Leaving this place
we sailed for Gay Head, which place we
reached at 9 o’clock. Several here went on
shore and saw the Indians on the isle nd, the
Commissary, after close scrutiny, vowing
them to be far ahead of his Block Isla nder in
civilization and moral and intellectual ad-
vancement. After a halt here of two or
three hours, we made all sail and took a bee
line for “ home,"

 

“ Home, home, sweet home! _ ._
Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home." .
We reached the N. Y. Herald’s “middle pas:
sage," alias Plum Gut, about 11 o'clock, but
a calm coming on made little headway. Next
morning, Aug. 36, found ourselves abreast
Montauk Point again, with little wind and
current setting strong against. us. IAt 11 A,
M. the Club were summoned on deck, and“
after a few remarks from our Commodore,
a committee, consisting of Messrs. Austin,
Hatch, and Glutllrie, were appointed to draw:
up a series of resolutions, which should em—-
body such an. expressloquf our feelings as-
might be put: on record on the Secretary’s
book. At 5 Pi M. the Club again met to hear
resolutions read,0n which occasion Mr.Gutll-
ric addressed as in a neat, eloquent, and per-
tinent speech, mrticularly eulogiziug our
Chaplain, whose presence. had so materially
added to our social as well as spiritual enjoy-
lllents, whereupon M1 -. Austin responded in
a very feeling manner, expressing his happi-
ness in having been permitted to enjoy the
social companionship of such a large compa~
ny of men, among wl limit and from whom,
in all their hilarity, no word or , not had
marred the general pleasure, or in anywise
compromised the chi: :acter of the Christian
or the gentleman. A t the close of this pleas-
ing interview, an auction was arranged,

trinkets appertaining: to the outfit, were

New Haven Palladium, ofJuly 25th.
The Grampno Club.

Yesterday, in obedience to a telelgraphic dispatch
front our nei hbor Byington of the orwalkGazette,
we drove to avin Rock for the urpose of awaiting
the arrival ofa part of hale fe lows, who propose
git-Min some ten ya on a fishing excursion off

lpck Is and. After satisfying the "inner man" at
Upson‘s table. we discovered a trim schooner of 200
tons burthen in the oiling, with sails set and stream-
ersItlyin , rapidly approaching shore. The sharpee
“Llillh prop" put 011' in a twinklin for the sus-
picions looking craft, and findin er apers all
correct, brought a number of the b ue shIIrted voy-
agers to the hotel. Accepting their invitation, we

aid the club, whose euphonious title forms our
siding, a visit. We arrived alongside, just as din-
ner was announced. but Upson had spelled our ap-
tlte, and we forebors attacking the delicate and
.electable dishes that graced that regale,“ though
we must admitthat the ice cream, brought in by way
0 dessert, was delicious. .

The schooner; clept Wm. F. Burden. is a model
of nestness. Ha f the hold is fitted u as s also ing
apartment. The berths are bread on commod ous,
undone could look at them without thoughts diss-
greeabl sug Iestive of cramps and nightmare. Ev-
ery var cty o tackle and butt calculated to deceive
unwary fishes is snu ly packed away on board, show-
ing that the “Norwa kers" intend to “hook" every-
th ng from ohnge sea monster to the more dimuni-
tive scaly specimens who favor them with a nibble.

The party sailed last night for New London; Thurs-
day the touch at Newport, and from thence they

0 to B ock Island—their great fishing “ground."—

uccess to every “Grampus,” may they have snapos-
tolicol draught of fishes, and return home, fully con-
vinced that a ten days sail on the “rolling deep"

as they may designate during the trip.

him for:—
NoItWALx, August 30, 1860.

My very first act after seven years and two months‘

confinement 1:4 to render my sincere and heartfelt

thanks to those(may I say fricnds?)who have mnnfest—

ed such a deep interest in my my case as to lead to my

release. .

I was informed that to the interest and through

the exertion of yourselfand J. A. Van an‘dt, Esq,

of your town, and Mr. Wm. D. Bishop, the Represen-

tative in Congress from Bridgeport District ; Mr.

Wm. D. Shipmsn, U. S. Judge for the district of
Conn. ; R. J. Ingersoll, Esq., NewHaven; Mr.Aber-

netha, Bridgeport; Jon. C. Loomls, Bridgeport; and

Babcock, editor of Palladium, New Haven, I am in-

debted for my release. I know-the dilculty of pro-

curing a pardon from the Government. I have suf-

fered, yes, sufi‘cred seven long and dreary years ; and

I shall try to conduct myself in the future so as to

leave no stigma upon you or each and all of you r

your efforts in my behalf; or reproach upon the P -

dent, Mr. Joe. Buchanan, for the pardon with which

he has infused me with new life. No one can ever

know the dreary blank seven years has made in my

Life.

When the heavy bolts turned upon me on a fifteen
.years‘ sentence, hope Almost deserted Inc. Vsinly
did I multiply the years by the months and weeks,
and then by the days, and think that one and anoth-
er had gone, it brought no relief, but seemed to in-
crease the depth of the despair into which I had fall-
en. Then when sickness came upon me. all alone suf-
fering from the usual confinement and anxiety of
mind, I abandoned all hope and grieved at the waste
of Life I had made. How forcibly Bulwer made
Mclnotte express my feeling—“The clcud had bro—
ken on that stormy night, and in the waste [

stand alone with heaven." No one can ever
know—yes, I would say imagine—how I felt,
when the U. S. Marshall—Mr. Bacon—sent for
me and read the pardon to me. It was unexpected,
I could not realize it, the joyful transition was too
much,—but joy seldom kills ; and gradually after I
was out inhaling the pure air of Heaven, I began to
realize that I was indeed a free man. Restore the
blind to sight, the sick who for years have
languished on a bed of suffering, to life and health ;
and they must feel slightly what the prisoner feels
after seven years of a long and dismal incarceration,
he is unexpectedly restored to the world and to the
bosom of his relations and friends. '

My pardon was read at 10 1-2 A. M., 28th ult, and
I left in the 12 1-2 train from Hartford, where I was
taken by the Clerk—Mr. Andrus.

I really cannot close without returning my thanks
to Daniel Webster, Esq., Warden; Mr. Fenton, Dep-
uty, Mr. Phelps, Chaplain, and Doctor Warner, for
the uniform kindness with which they treated me.—
I feel that I have satisfied the law, and shall hence-
forth try to secure the good opinion of all those who
have 'so generously exerted themselves in procuring
a pardon for me from the Executive, who, Ihope, will
never have cause to regret his generous clemency in
my behalf. And now allow me, before I close, to re-
turn my sincere thanks to all of my friends and ac-
quaintances of Norwalk and its vicinity, for their
kind and generous reception, which I shall always
appreciate. WALTER TAYLOR.

For the Gazette.
Wus'rron'r, July filth.

It is somewhat amusing to notice the plotting, the
squirming, and the various contortions of the differ-
ent factions oposed to the Republican Party.

These parties difi'ering entirely upon principles,
with no hope whatever of carrying out any policy,
with no motion—save the one of getting their fingers
into the National Treasury—ate Consoling them-
selves with the idea that they ciln unite their speck-
led and pie-bald forces, and then prevent the election
of Lincoln by the people! “Black spirits and white,
mingle, mingle, mingle!" We want to see these
Breckinridgc disunionists—thesc Bell union-savers
—and the gallant. followers of Douglas—bring their
forces into line. Falstad‘s company at Shrewsbury
would be nothing in comparison to them. Only pic-
ture to yourself the union-savers Hunt, Brooks and
Brooks in the loving embrace of Yancey and Keit ;
could anything be made more sublime ? Let us mark
well the spectacle ; the like has never been witness-i
ed, It‘is an old adage “that-men are known by the‘
company they keep ;” yet we did not expect to see
.such union-saving pn-pxcnumcnas the brothers
Brooks and Hunt of New York, who have done noth-
ing the last few years but preach against sac-nonn-
isx—wilo have claimed to represent the only “Na~
tional Party," so soon unitingwith Keit and Yancy,
men whose whole lives have been devoted to disun—
ion, and who are the very extremes of fire-eaters.—
Look at the action of the Bell and Breckinridge
leaders in New Jersey, who have been following the
counsels of Brooks and Hunt, and then ask yourself
the question if the reputation 0 these gentlemen
for Union-Saving is not somewhat compromised.—
Thlhk of it! union-savers attaching themselves to

The Census.

The returns from the census now being to-
ken come in slowly, and the resultsare made
public only in patches and fragments. It is
stated that more complete returns have been
received from Connecticut than from an
other State, and that the results show a big
degreeof prosperty, especially in the manu-
factoring towns and cities. _It is believed
that Connecticut will show a much renter
increase since 1850 than any other stern
State. We have already mentioned the re-
markable increase in Meriden and some other
towns. The present census indicates that
the population of Waterbury City is over
8,000, and that the Town numbers over 10,-
000; an increase of 100 per cent. in ten years.
Winchester shows it population of 3,550
against 2.199 in 1850, a gain of 1,371, or about
00 per cent. On the other hand, some agri-
cultural towns show a marked decrease.—
Barkllampstcd loses 244 in the ten years,
now having a population of 1,280 only, and
other towns show greater losses. On the
whole, we have reason to believe that the in-
crease in Connecticut will be so great asto se-
cure to the State her present number of Rep.
resentativcs‘ in Congress.

Maine has gained only about 20,000 in
population since 1850, having now about
600,000. Portland Biddeford,LcwistonRock-
land, Bangor and Calais have made consider-
able gains, but nearly all the villages and a
vast majority of the agricultural towns are
either at a standstill, or exhibit a decrease.

New Hampshire shows a decrease in
a majority of the country towns, and a
little increase in the larger places. It is not
believed that the a gregatc population of the
State has increase much, if any, since 1850.

Massachusetts, also, will show little in-
crease and there is a probability that she will
lose a Member of' Congress. Boston is ex-
pected to show 180,000 inhabitants, and the
cities and towns in its vicinity, the manufac-
turing towns throughout the fate, and most
of those aecommo ated by Railroads, will
show an increase, while the agricultural
towns often have decreased in pa elation.

The Eastern cities show considerable in-
crease. Baltimore appears to have over 230,
000 inhabitants, in gain of 50,946. Philadel-
phia is put down by the North American, on
information thered from the census marsh-
al over 650, , an increase of 242,000! This
increase alone is more than the entire popu-
lation of any other city-in the Unlon, except
New York. 01 the population of the metro-
polis we have no reliable data as yet.

Cincinnati, to our surprise, is stated to have
only 180,000 inhabitants. In 1850 there were
115,438, and in 1854, b a local census, 160,—
186. Of Chicago, St. ouis and the other
western cities, .we have no doubt that the pop—
ulation of the Western States has increased
so largely as to produce reat changesin the
relative political power 0 the older and more
newly settled States. We may expect the
Western States to gain many Members of”
Congress, which. the East and South will
lose. The importance of these changes in
their bearing upon the political issues which
now agitate the country can hardly be over-
estimateilr-Palkidz‘ima.

l have used Dr. M’Lane’s Worm Specific,
prepared by Fleming Bros, Pittsburgh, Pa.,
in my private practice, and am prepared to
say that the unparalleled success With which
Ihave prescribed its use, both for elliIdren
and adults, induces me to say the most in its
favor of any specific or patent medicine ever
before brought to my notice. The mode 05'

an
the certainty of its efflcatiousefi‘ccts, give it in
my opinion, a decided advantage over any
other medicine of the kind before the public.

Purchasers will be careful to ask for D3.
