-3.,'l‘hroughout all History, the one great
crime of crimes is Treason! The direst cruel.
1wide, and damning atrocities of wickedness
:‘Wllltlll have blackened all the dark catalo-
gues. of crimes have in the lapse of time
"Worn Off from the people’s memories, and
'the recollection of them faded away. Not
1.50 ,with treason. As in the Old common
flaw of England, Treason is proclaimed to
‘rtltint the blood, so it would seem that the
QED-Wise Ruler of the Universe had ordained
and proclaimed in letters Of fire, to all guilty
ofitr'eason, that He would.“ visit the iniqui-
‘ties-of the faihcrs upon the children to the
"th‘ird and fourth generation,” How vividly
‘do our more aged citizens remember the woe-
ful and unerring legacy Of popular scorn ,
‘a‘nd detestation with which even the inno-
cgiit descendants of the traitors ofthe Revolu-
lion have been visited all through life. What
pen- then can depict the utter execration and
loathing which future generations will heap
upon the memories of Traitors of TO-DAY,
who are sinning not as their fathers did, but
against Light and Liberty, Justice and Hu-
manity! What man is there who, careless
of himself and his own memory, “ after life’s
fitful fever is o’er”—-darc invoke the undying
Obloq'uy and scorn which shall far down
thecenturies be the inexorable legacy Of his
children and children’s children to the latest
generation 2 In Heaven‘s name, let every
man flee far away from the seething volcano
{if treason, into the raging vortex of which
ignoble men and shameless politicians would
relentlessly sweep you ! When the base ap-
peal is made to you to indorse disloval sen-
timents and sustain disloyal men, hurl back
the vile imputation upon your patriotism
and your honor. Let your indignant pro—
teSt ring out as did the life-long democratic.
Soldier, who, when thus appealed to, gave
utterance to his scorn in the following burn-
ing words:
., ;“ Your enemies ask for no cessation ofhos-
tilities. Shame upon YOU to anticipate them.
Shame. Spare your sympathies for miserable

aIvE THEM TO YOUR FRIENDS, YOUR RELA-

-"fIfsome miserable domagogues among you

JOHN H. HUBBARD.
This gentleman has been placed in nomi-
result.
ed by their friends, but we have yet to meet
the first person who does not cordially en-
dorse the action of the Convention.
Mr. Hubbard has not been in active politi-
cal life for many years, having devoted him-
self unceasingly to the discharge of increas-
ing and laborious professional duties. He
stands deservedly at the head of the Litch-
field bar, and is widely and favorably known
in the courts in other counties.
Our older citizens will recollect that he
was in the State Senate the year that GOV.
Toucey vetoed the charter of a bridge over
the Connecticut river at Middletown. He
then took high .rank among the public men
in the Legislature, and was active and influ.
ential in the stirring and exciting controver-
sies that then agitated the State.
When the assault on Sumter lighted the
fires of civil war, and roused the patriotic
to active efforts for the maintenance of na-
tiOnality and government, Mr. Hubbard
threw aside his law books and devoted him-
self assiduously to the labor of the hour, to
raising troops, providing for their families,
and diffusing a healthy public sentiment as
to the aims and purposes of the traitors north
and south, who were seeking to destroy the
nation.
He early saw that there was a necessity for
the ,abjugation of old party ties, and the
banding together of all who were in favor of
a rigorous prosecution of the war, and to
his efforts may be traced the first Union
meeting in the State for the purpose
of political organization. It was held at
Litchfield, and he addressed it in earnest, ef-
fective words that carried conviction with
them. He is one of the sort of men pro-em-
inently needed in Congress now, wise and
patriotic. He is not so thoroughly identified
with party organizations as to be fixedin the
acts of old prejudices. New es, new sur-
roundings are to meet the assembling of the
28th Congress.
It is true that cannon and bayonets have
to work out the great problems of the future.
But. it is truer that the final results are “to
be garnered up in the Senate house.”
The next house of Representatives will
be closely balanced, and ability will be the
more in demand in the Representative. We
have assumed that Judge Hubbard is to be
elected. There must not be a doubt about
it. The manufacturers, the mechanics and
workingmen of Fairfield County owes it to
Litchfield County, that it should be put be-
yond a doubt, in return for the noble vote
rolled up for own Terry three times running.
Workingmen of Fairfleld County ! will
you do it?

A Protest from the 17th, C. V.
CAMP or 17TH C. V., BROOK's 2
STATION, Va, Feb. 24th, 1863. 5‘
MEssns. EDITORS :—It is with feelings not
only of surprise, but Of mingled disappoint-
ment and shame, that we learn that the
Democratic party, (so called,) of Connecti-
cut, have placed in nomination as their can-
didate for Governor, Thomas H. Seymour.
It is generally the case that a party always
places in nomination for office, some one
who is supposed to embody the principles of
that party. There is no mistaking the posi-
.tion of Thomas H. Seymour; he is not a
friend of the government. In the mighty
trial through which our country is now pass-
ing—in the great conflict which has for its
issue the life or death of republican institu-
tions. he, Thomas H. Seymour, has been an
open sympathizer with them in rebellion
against our government.
When we, the soldiers Of this army left
our homes, and all that we held dear upon
earth, to endure the hardships of a soldier’s
life to aid in the suppression of this wicked
and causelcss rebellion, we expected at least,
that we should be sustained by those whom
we had lef tbehind us. We never for one mo—
ment supposed that the holy cause for which
we were, and are still willing to sacrifice life
itself, was to be called in question, and that
the people of Connecticut were so soon to
decide whether or not, they would turn their
backs upon IT and us (‘2) but such it seems is
the humiliating fact.
Alas! and has it come to this? What, the
'soil of Connecticut too, to be made to drink
the blood Of traitors? Must the ravages of
civil war he visited upon her fair bosom ?
We, the soldiers of the army Of the Potomac
are still loyal to the government; and should
the miserable nest Of Connecticut secession-
ists come into power and undertake in the
least to block the fforts of the government
in putting down this rebellion, we are ready
to march with alacity and rid the earth for-
ever Of their miserable picscnce. \Vc have
a certain amount of respect for open, fight-
ing traitbrs here, but the miserable brood of
peace democrats in Connecticut and some
Western States, we hate and dispisc. With
them we will hold no argument. We shall
offer them nothing but bullets and cold
steel. L.

HILTON HEAD, S. 0. Feb. 25, 1863-»-
Among the passengers from New York
by the steamer Arago, on her last trip
was one Capt Gladding, of the rebel na-
vy, who, as a paroled prisoner, has been
permitted to come to this point for the
purpose of being transmitted through our
lines to those Of the rebels. ' Since his ar-
rival he has been arrested as a Confeder-
ate spy, and is now detained in close con-
finement at the provost guard-house. He
boasted during his downward passage Of'
having run the blockade sixteen times.
Upon his person was found exchange in
favor of European' parties to the amount
of thirty thousand pounds. There were
also discovered in his possession numerous
pamphlets and manuscript documents
pertaining to the blockade, and various
letters to Confederate officials. Among
the latter was one from a gentleman of
high position in the New England States
a. copy of which I subjoin:
COPY or A LETTER FROM EX-GOVERNOR T.H.
s ——T0 'r. L. Eso]
HAarronn,July 30, 1862,
DEAR SIR.-——Yonr Obliging favor of the
28th inst. has been received and read
with pleasure. Though you state that
you are a stranger to me, I feel myself al-
ready introduced to you by the friendly
words breathed through your letter. Since
the appearance of a letter of mine to
which you so kindly allude, I have had
the satisfaction of learning from quite a
number of persons at home and abroad
that they approve of its contents. Among
those who have given me this proof of
their confidence and regard are men of as
pure. morals, high intelligence and lofty
patriotism as any of the boasted champi-
ons of .the war party in church or State;
others in more humble life, but of warm
hearts and noble impulses, have not been
backward in responding to the sentiments
which I have only, I fear, but feebly ex-
pressed.
Your allusion to “ constitutional liber-
ty” suggests painful reflections. Since the
inauguration of this war the men in pow-
er at Washington have been robbing us
of our. rights. The great safeguards of
the Citizens, protecting him against illegal
arrests and false imprisonments, have
been struck down by ignorant or wicked
rulers.
. The press, where we used to look for
light and truth, has been turned to dark-
ness or given over to blood. Free speech
silenced and the very thoughts of men
crushed within their bosoms. And all
this has been done to sustain the tyrant
plea that there has been a State necessity
for such atrocious doings. The conse-
quence is, that instead of shortening the
war, these measures of the administration
or of a fanatic Congress, have greatly
prolonged it and helped to fill the land
with mourning.
. I abhor the whole scheme Of Southern
invasion with all its horrible consequences
of rapine and plunder. You cannot help
ginning to see that there can no'Union be
got in this way. The war might have
been avoided and the Union saved. This
is getting to be the prevailing opinion
And it would have been avoided but for
a fanatic-set Of men besieging the Presi-
dent, and who wanted blood and plunder.
They have got both, and humanity weeps
over the wrecks of body and soul. Those
who drive the car of war at this time
have no more idea of saving the Union
by their bloody sacrifices Of this sort than.
they have of changing the course of na-~
ture. Still they go on.
In presence of the appalling fact,
which should haunt them like a ghost Of
the damned, that we are loosing our young
men at the rate of “20,000 a month,
aside from those who fall in battle ;” in
presence of all this they demand new lo-
vies for the hOSpitals, the marshes, the
ditches and the gunboat shambles.
Depend on it, Heaven will frown on
such a cause as this; it cannot and will
not come to good. Where you find me
in lamenting or exposing this iniquity you
will find me to the end of the chapter. I
would rather have the good opinion Of
fellow citizens who, like yourself, have
given me their sympathy in a time of
some considerable trial of one’s faith,
than to be first among the slayers of kin-
dred or wear the bloody laurels they may
gather in a. fratricidal war. I doubt if
the Union can be restored at all—things
have gone so for now that the only possi.
blc chance will be by the 'adOpt-ion of Ii
Christian policy very different from that.
which prevails at Washington at the pres
out time.
Though I only know you, sir, by your
kind letter, I shall not soon forget that
it was written or by whom.
Accept, I pray you, my best wishes,
and believe me, dear sir, respectfully yours.
Under all circumstances, General Hun-
ter has deemed it best to retain Captain
[Glfldfllllg in custody. There can be no
doubt but that be is acting as a rebel spy.
[13‘ Te above letter we copy from the N.
Y. Herald of Sunday, the let inst, they hav-
ing received it from their correspondent at
Port Royal, by the Arago, which arrived at
New York Saturday. Union Men of Con-
necticut, no matter what your politics may
have been in days gone by, read it and pon-
der it wplll Can you, will you vote for a
man holding such principles, and one who
appears to be in full communion with the
enemies of his country? We believe you
will answer with an emphatic NO at the
ballot-box, and thus do your duty in helping
to put down this accursed rebellion, and its
tools and traitors at the North.

The National Currency Bill.
The “ act to provide a national currency,
and to prOVIde for the circulation and re-
Fcbruary 12, provides for the establishment
of a separate bureau in the Treasury De-
partment charged with the execution of this
and all laws appertaining to a national cur-
rency secured by the United States bonds,
the head_,of which shall be known as the
Comptroller of the Currency.
Associations for carrying on the business
of banking may be formed by any number
of persons—not less, in any case, than
five. The capital stock of each shall not
be less than $50,000, and in cities whose
population is over ten thousand persons,
not less than $100,000. At least thirty
per ccntum of the capital stock shall be paid
in at the time of the commencement of the
association’s banking business,” and the re-
mainder in installments of ten per centum
each on the whole amount at the end of ev-
ery ten months succeeding. The association
being formed, may retain its name for twenty
years, increase its capital from time totimc,
and regulate its own affairs throughout, sub-
ject to the approval of the Comproller of the
Currency. The shares of all associations
sonal property, each shareholder being liable
to the amount, at their par value, of the
invested in such shares.
Every association, after having complied
with the preliminary provisions of the act,
urer U. S. bonds, bearing interest to an
amount not less than one-third of the capital
stock paid in, in return for which the associ-
ation shall be entitled to receive from the
Comptroller of the Treasury circulating
notes of difierent denominations in blank,
equal to ninety per centum of the current
market value of the bonds so transferred,
but not exceeding the par value thereof, if
bearing interest at the rate of six per ccntum,
or of’ equivalent United States bonds bearing
alcss rate of interest. The entire amount
Of circulating notes to be issued under the
act shall not exceed three hundred mil-
lions of dollars, to be apportioned to as-
sociations in the States, District of Columbia,
and the Territories, according to representa-
tive population, banking capital, resources,
and business. The notes used will be newly
engraved, of the denominations of five, ten,
twenty, fifty, one hundred, five hundred, and
one thousand dollars, and shall express on
their face that they are secured by United
States bonds, and also the promise of the
association receiving and issuing them to pay
on demand. TO defray the expenses incur-
red in executing the provismns of the act
every association organized under it is re-
quired to pay one per cent. on the amount
Of circulating notes semi-annually. '
Banking associations not organized under
the foregoing provisions may issue iiotcs
signed as usual, on condition that they make
atrue and accurate semi-annual return to
the comptroller Of the amount and condition
of notes isssucd by it, in default of which,
such association shall pay to the United
States a penalty of two per cciituni upon its
entire capital stock.

W'ashington vs. Tories.
The Anniversary of VVashington’s Birth
Day has just been celebrated, in a more or
less imposing manner, by the lovers of that
Country of which he is truly called the
Father.
In strange contrast with his devotion and
zeal for the freedom and unity of this nation,
stand the speeches and resolutions of the
late, so called, Democratic Convention, met
at Hartford, Connecticut. Now, while I am
for granting the largest liberty, both of speech
and Of the press, which any reasonable man
can ask; still, as under such a grant no one
would be allowed to advocate robbery, arson,
or murder with impunity, so no one has a
right to use either the one or the other to
overthrow the government he has solemnly
sworn to support, or to baffle the efforts Of
the nation in its struggle for existence.
Hencc,beiug a. great advocate Of the wisdom
as well as the patriotism of Washington, I
am disposed to ask, would it not. be well to
make a. practical application of his wise
counsel in reference to the tories of his day,
to those who appear in our midst with the
avowed purpose of resisting, and if possible,
Of breaking down this government.
In a letter to Governor Trumbull of Con-
necticut, he asks—“ Would it not be prudent
to seize these tories who have been, are, and we
Irnozo, will be active against us? Why should
persons who are praying upon the citals of
their country be sufl‘erell to stalk at large,
whilst we know they will do us every 722ischief in
their power .9."
I am fully aware of the hue and cry
which would be raised were these abettors
of treason dealt with according to their dc-
serts; still I am quite sure succeeding gener-
ations would approve the not not less hearti-
ly than do we to-duy, the wisdom and cour-
age of our noble Washington.

Resolred , That the present Adminis-
tratioa has our entire confidence, as sin-
cerelv determined to save this Nation
n-om'uie unnumbered evils with which it
is menaced by an unjust and unholy re-
bellion, and that we will most heartily
sustain it through every trial, until the
dignity Of the law shall be fully vindica-
led, an unbroken Union, peace and pros-
perity be l‘e-CStflbllShcd, and the great
principles of a true democracy madeper-
moment. and secure to all coming time,
beyond the assault of foes without or
traitors within.
Resolved, That the efforts Of the uidcrs
and abettors of armed treason at the
North, and especially in the State oiCon-
necticut, by denouncing the Administra-
tion, favoring submission to traitors, and
holding tip for tho sufi'ragcs of the people
' of Connecticut, for the responsible posi-
tion of Governor, a man who has neVer
given a word Of sympathy or a fartliing
of money to support this war in defence
of freedom, but who on the contrary,
has persistently thrown his influence In
favor of rebellion, merit, as they will re-
cciVe, the outer reprobatiou and denunci-
ation of every loyal citizen.
Resolved, That the gallant heroes and
patriots now. in arms to maintain the
Union are not to war against the liber-
ties and property of the South. but in a
just and sacred cause ; and that, being
thus engaged, they merit our warmest
gratitude and our teiidcrest care.

@Gcn. Rosecrans reports that he
fought the great battle of Stone river
with a total force of' 43,400 men offibom
2,223 were artillery, 3,200 cavalry, and
37,977 infantry. Of these be lost 92 offi-
cers and 1,441 privates killed, 384 Offi-
cers and 1,861 enlisted men wounded,-
makiug 1,533 killed and 2,245 wounded
with loss than 2,800 prisoners.
He estimates the rebel force at 62,4 90
he adds.
“Their average loss, taken from the
statistics of Clayburii, Breckenridge and
Withers divisions, was about 2,080 each,
this, for six divisions of infantry and one
Of cavalry, will amount to 14,560 men,
or to ours nearly as 165 to 100.
' “Of 14,560 rebels struck by our mis-
siles, it is estimated that 20,000 rounds
of artillery hit 728 men, and 2,000,000
rounds of inusketry bit 13,832 men; av-
eraging 27 cannon shots to hit one man,
145 musket shots to hit one man.

E:- For some time, there have been
rumors that, while General McClellan
was in command of the army of the Po-
tomac, and before the retirement of Gen-
eral Scott, he was guilty of disobeying
the orders of the latter in repeated in-
stances, and that General Scott complain-
ed to the Secretary of War and even
pIOposcd a Court Martial.
Most persons have supposed that these
were mere rumors; all previous reports
indicating that General Scott had the
highest opinion of General McClellan.
At the session of the House of Repre-
sentatives, last night, a certified copy
was read of a letter addressed by Gene-
ral Scott to Mr. Cameron, then Secretary
of War. It is under date October 4th.
1861. This confirms all the rumors
in question. General Scott complains
that, contrary to. his express orders.
General McClellan neglected to commu-
nicate with him directly, but sent his re'
ports to the Secretary of War. And
further, when ordered to furnish a de-
tailed report of the state of the troops,
&c., be paid no attention whatever to
the order.
“Eighteen days have now elapsed,
( says General Scott, )and not the slight-
est respect lias been shown to either of
these orders by Major-GeneralMcClel-
lan.” He enquires further:
“Has a senior no corrective power over
a junior Officer, in case of such persistent
neglect and disobedience.
The remedy by arrest and trial before
a Court ll'Ia-rtial would probably soon
end the evil, but it has been feared a con-
flict of authority near the head of the
army would be encouraging to the ene-
mies and depressing to the friends of the
Unionulicncc my long forbearance, and
continuing though but nominally in duty
I shall try to hold out till the arrival Of
Major-General Hulleck.”

STEAM PIPES IN CONTACT WITH W001)
DANGEROUS .—lt has been thought by
many that steam pipes may be connected
immediately with the woodwork of build-
ings without danger of ignition. We
were show“, yesterday a piece of hard
oak plank which had been charred to
the centre while supporting a condenser
that'receivcd steam from the waste pipe
after passing through several hundred
feet of coil. it came from the establish-
ment of MOI-ison, Son A: Hoyt, Of Nor-
walk. Recently the condenser failed to
work Well, and on examination it Was
found to have settled considerably from
the falling of one end of the plank. The
wood had become charred so deeply that
the lllllleJlll-ll to hold it. A piece of
the plank can be sccn‘ul the office Of the
North American Insurance Co. in this
city. if the steam, after passing through
several hundred foe-t of coil, could burn
into an oak plank the danger of carrying
the pipe through woodwork without a.
sheath will readily be seen.

The Na tional Mili Bill.
The following is a summary of the
chief" points 6f the. National Militia Bill
which has just passed Congress :
After a preamble which sets forth the
reasons for the measure, it is enacted
that all able-bodied male citizens, and
foreigners who have declared their inten-
tion to become citizens, who are between
the ages Of twenty and thirty-five years,
shall be declared to constitute the nation-
al forces, and liable to perform military
service when called upon by the President.
Section second exempts from service
such persons as are rejected as physically
or mentally unfit for the servic e ; also,
first the Vice-President of the United
States, the judges of the various courts
of the United States, the heads of the
various executive departments of the
government, and the governors of the
several States ,- and second, the only son
liable to military duty Of a widow depen-
dent upon his labor for support: third,
the only son of aged or infirm parent or
parents dependent upon his labor for Slip-
port ; fourth. where there are two or
more sons of aged or infirm parents sub-
ject to draft, the father, or, if he be dead
the mother may elect which son shall be
exempt ; fifth the only brother of chil-
dren not twelve years old, having neither
father nor mother, dependent upon his
labor for support; sixth, the father of
motherless children under twelve years of
age dependent. upon his labor for sup-
port; seventh, where there are a father
and sons in the same family and house-
hold, and two Of them are in miltary
service of the United States as non-com-
missioned officers, musicians or privates,
the residue of such family, not exceeding
two, shall be exempt ; and no persons but
such as are herein exempt shall be ex-
empt—provided, however, that no per-
son who has been convicted of any felony
shall he enrolled or permitted to serve in
said forces]
Section third makes two classes of the
enrolled citizens. The first class c0nsists
of all those subject to duty between the
ages of twenty and thirty-five years, and
all unmarried persons over thirty-five
years who are subject to duty. The sec-
ond class embrace all Others su'liject to
military duty, and they are not to be
called out until the first class has been
called into service.
Section four to ten inclusive makes the
District of Columbia, each of the terri-
tories, and each Congressional district,
and authorizes the appointment of a Pro-
vost Marshall for each district, under
whose snperintendence the draft shall be
made. All persons who are enrolled are
liable for two years from the date Of en-
rollnient to be Called into the military
service of the United States for three
years, unless sooner discharged.
Section twelve declares that when a
draft shall be made in any district, the
enrolling board for that district, consis-
ting Of three persons, the provost marshal
as president, and having a practising
physician or surgeon for one Of its mem-
bers, shall make a draft of the citizens
subject to military duty, of the number
required, and fifty per-cent in excess.
All conscripts are to report in ten days.
Those who wish may procure exemption
by furnishing a. substitute, on. by the pay-
ment of three hundred dollars. Any con-
script failing to report for duty, or who
does not procure exemption, is to be
treated as a deserter, unless he 'can show
lieis not liable to military duty.
Section fourteen provides for the in-
spection, by an army surgeon, of all draf-
ted men, and the discharge of those not
able bodied. After the required number
of able bodied men are obtained the re-
mainder will be discharged.
Section eighteen is to encourage mili-
tia and volunteers now in the service to
re-enlist by the payment of additional
bounties.
It is also provided that when a. regi-
ment of the same arm from any State
has lost halfits men by battle, that the
companies of the regiment shall be con
solidated, and superfluous Officers dis-
charged. Anothcr section empowers
court marshals to reduce to the ranks offi-
cers who shall be found guilty of absence
without leave, to serve three years or
during the war.
The remainder of the act provides for
trials, &c., grades of rank, and is of no
importance to the general public. All
the nicer. important points of the bill are
presented above.

am... It is the simple and vital truth
that every Democratic triumph tends to
strengthen and protracl the Rebellion by
encmtraging the Rebels in the belief their
friends are coming into power at the North
and will make peace with them on their own
terms. Had there been no such triumphs
last year, the Union party of the South
would have been immensely stronger to-
day than it is. Every vote for the Dem-
ocratic ticket tends to protract and iii-
crease the calamities and burdens of this
fratricidal war. It is an assurance to
the South that the Union flag is about
to be struck. If you want the war ever
to end, unless by the complete triumph of
disunion—if you mean that the authority
of the Union shall be maintained and per-
petuated—vote so that the South may
not misunderstand you— Tribune

The Domocriiey on the $10,000
Appropriation.
“We protest against the extraordinary and
' uncalled for appropriation by the. last extra
session Of our Legislature, of ten thousand
dollars to the. Governor of this State, to be
used by him in secret for any object 118 may
see fit to cxpcnd it.”
. The words above quoted form the fit-
ting conclusion to the resolutions passed
by the Democratic State Convention.
They betray an entire lack of sympathy
and good will for the volunteers of Con-
necticut who have gone forth to fiwlit and
to when a
Connecticut values the lives of her sons.
In wai she has tried to provide for their
greatest security and comfort. As their
Wants have become knowu she has en-
deavored, with true parental tenderness
to meet them. It was found that after
serious battles many of the disabledsnf-
fered severely for the want of prompt at.
tention. The corps assigned to the'dnty
Of' removing and caring for the wounded,
too often proved insufficient for the hercu.
lean task imposed upon them The work
of relief was conducted promiscously,
and was only limited by the abilities of
the ambulance parties, the surgeons, and
the nurses. Gov. Buckingham, in com-
mon with many citizens, felt the impor-
tance of providing efficient agents to look
exclusively after the welfare of the sol-
dicrs from this State. As no appropri-
ation had been made by the Legislature
for the purpose, be employed competent
men to visit the battle-fields and hospitv
als, generously defraying the expenses
from his own private resources. At the
extra session, the Legislature voted the
sum of ten thousand dollars to continue
the work. This money is to be employed
in saving the lives and ministering to the
comfort of sick and wounded Connecti-
cut soldiers. It is to send men to scenes
of carnage to carry prompt relief to
your fathers, brothers, sons. Every genes
rous impulse commends the effort. Yet
the measure is odious to the Democracy
of Connecticut. It is because they be-
grudge the moncy, r because they care
nothing for the twenty thousand men now
exposed to wounds and death in behalflof
those who, amid the quietude and securi-
ty of home, are actively plotting against
them? Have you a relative, a friend in
the army of the Union ? Remember that
the Democracy of Connecticut denoun-
ces the provision, trifling as it is, which
the Legislature made to preventpny
avoidable‘evil that might befall hint" on
the battle-field.

A SIiIPLE CURE roe THE GROUP.;4-rhe
Journal of Health says, when a child is
taken with croup, instantly apply cold
water-~ ice water if possible—suddenly
and freely to the neck and chest with a
sponge. The breathing will almost in-
stantly be relieved. Soon as possible,
let the sufferer drink as much asit can;
then wipe it dry, cover it warm, and soon
a quiet slumber will relieve all anxiety.

The Boston Post utterly repudiates
the treasonable resolutions of the the late
Hartford Convention; in fact there is not
a Democratic paper outside of Connecti-
cut that endorses them. Every man who
votes for Seymour endorses those infa-
moas resolutions.
Gen. Rosecrans is doing a recruiting
business. Hundreds of rebel conscripts
come into his lines daily and enlist.

This day at N ashotah Theological Semin-
ary, Rev. J. Legrand Finney, in the 24th
year of his age.
The deceased was a native of Norv'valk,
Conn. His theological studies were pursued
at Nasliotah, where he endeared himself to
his Professor and fellow students by his kind
disposition and his great versatility of talent.
He graduated little more than two years ago,
and after his ordination, was placed in charge
Of a parish at Plainfield, New Jersey. The
work which he there accomplished was tru-
ly herculcan. He not only brought to life
the dead bones of a neglected perish, but he
likewise established upon a firm basis a pay-
ing parish school. His influence for good
was felt throughout the town of Pluinfield,
and especially amongst the young. Mr.
FINxEr,s health was broken down by these
arduous duties, and that he might recupe-
rate, he was on a brief visit to his old friends
at Nasliota. He arrived there Tuesday night
but this morning the Angel of Death bore
him away to Paradise.
