War News.

The past week has not been very pro-
lific of news; nothing, decisive from
Vicksburg or Port Hudson; while from
the Rappahannock, with the exception Of
the brilliant Cavalry dash to break up
one of Stuart’s contemplated raids, we
have nothing but rumors of what Lee
is eXpecting to do. There appears to
be some movement on foot there, but

I what it is we must wait for time to de-

velop. We understand that a portion of
'Hooker’s- Army is on the move, and that
the troops announced last week as being
over the river are still there and intrench-
ing themselves.

This (Monday) morning we have intel-
ligence that the British Pirate Georgia,
alias Japan, had commenced her work Of
preying on American commerce; well, all
we have to say about that is, that we

hope that England may get into awar
: with Japan, of which there. are strong

rumors, and then our merchants will have
an opportunity to build and equip a few
Alabama’s and Japan’s, and get them
commissioned . as Japanese Cruisers,
and thus pay off the score which the
English merchants have been so industri-
ously running up. . ,

P. S. Monday night, Lee’s army is
reported on the move towards Maryland
and Pennsylvania, and Hooker marching
to engage him. The President has call-
ed for 100,000 men for six months, to re-
sist the invasion, from Maryland, Ohio,
Pennsylvania and Western Virginia.
The same to be credited on their enroll-
'ment.

Ohio Democracy.

As we rejoiced when the copperhead
democracy of our own State nominated
Thomas,H.-Seymour and placed upon a
platform pr-esupposing and announcing

 

. his claims for an election to be based

upon avowed disloyalty to the general
, government, so now do we rejoice, with

, far more exceeding joy thatatreason
loving portion of Ohio have.nominated
that arch traitor and boon companion of
General Brechinridge, Clement L. Val-
lahdigham, as a candidate for Governor
of the Buckeye State] Finis Valian-
digham.

-—————.o+e>————-
@GOV. Wright, of Indiana, in his
speech to his old democratic friends, at
Lockwood’s Hall, just previous to our
late election, made the following predic-
tion : “ Before twelve months are over
you can’t point out a single democrat in
Norwalk, who won’t put a gun into the
negro’s hand, and swear he was always
in for it, and prove it, tool” We revive
the prophecy to announce its verification.
I Our "enrolling Oflicer” assures us that he
hasn’t put down a single dimmecrat, as
subject to draft, who is not only wil-
ling, but anxious that “Diggers” should
do the balance of the fighting i We all
know into what paroxisms of mast appall-
ing horror the bare hint of such a thing
' threw them, less than thfee months ago.
In fact our enrolling Officers everywhere
report the conversions as far transcend-
ing the Pentecostal period in suddenuess
and extent] ,
W
Another First-Class Concert.
Our citizens are to be favored with
another rare musical entertainment in the
Concert announced to be given by Mr.
Sanderson. Seats can be purchased in

 

'. advance, and reserved. The season is

not especially propitious, but the rare
quality of this really first-class entertain-
ment, we trust will ensure them afull
house.

The 17th Regitimnt.

‘The following private letter is from
Head Quarters, 17th Regiment, 0. V.,
under date of June 7th :

Wednesday, frOm an attack of diarrhea.
We think this is due to the nnskillfnlness
Of his physician in physicking him. ' Our
boys are generally getting, along very
well. The health of the regiment is good.
We expected to move this morning ; the
waggons were loaded. We still hold our-
selves in readiness with three days ra-
tions ; may go to morrow, may not move
f r some time. ‘ A part of our force cross-
e§ on Friday afternoon. 1 rather think
we shall go towards Warrenton, if we
move, though I do not know. All is
mystery. The enemy has gone where?
Is he laying a trap for us? Time will
decide. In the meantime we all to a man
give thanks to Gov. Buckingham for pro-
moting Capt. Fowler. We are all rejoic-
ing, notwithstanding the article of Hoyt
in the Stamford Advocate. Yours, &c.”

Capt. Burr, of Co. E., and Lient. Wa-
terbury, Co. B., we understand have been
exchanged, and are now with the regim’t.

Lieut.-Co]. Fowler, we are informed,
has been presented with a horse, by the
members of Co. A., and with a‘sword by
the members of Co. E, as tokens of their
esteem. '

Major Brady has received an appoint-
ment on Gen. Barlow’s Staff. '

Color Corporal C. Fred Betts, Co. A.,
has been appointed Sergeant-Major, vice
Chatficld, promoted.

In Go. A., Corporal Holly is promoted
to be Sergeant, vice Ells, promoted ; and
privates Merritt, Weed, and Westlake
promoted to be Corporals, vice Betts and
Holly, promoted, and Brown, died.

Capt. Hubbeli is now Acting Assist.-
Adj.-Genera] for the brigade.

Capt. Kellogg, CO. H., has been adver-
tised in the Washington papers, as a de-
serter, by Adj-Gen. Townsend. We are
glad to be able to say that this was a
mistake, and that it has been corrected.
It seems that just before the battle, he
was on the sick list, and was ordered to
report in Washington, but finding his
regiment about to march, he went to the
battle-field Of Chauceliorsville with his
men, instead of reporting at a Washing-

” ton hospital.

Pulpit Loyalty.

Lossing, in his “ Sketch of the Life of
Gen. Mublenberg,” records the following
incident connected with the G'enerul’s
leaving his ministrations in the pulpit to
take command of a regiment in the field:

“In concluding his farewell sermon, he
said that, in the language of Holy Writ,
‘there was a time for all things,-—a time
to preach, and a time to pray,—bnt those
times had passed away ;’ and then in a
voice that echoed like a trumpet blast
through the church, he said that _‘ there
was a time to fight, and that time had
now come P Then, laying aside his sac-
erdota] gown, he stood before his flock in
the full regimental dress of a Virginia
Colonel. He ordered the drums to be
beaten at the church door for recruits,
and almost all of his male audience capa-
ble of bearing arms joined his standard l”

What a stampede of torieh must have
taken place from that church, after such
a glorious infraction of the “ gospel” 0f
treason. .

A Memorial Gift to a Minister.

The Rev. Ralph Smith on being re-
leased, at his request, from the perform-
ance of pastoral labors in New Canaan,
was presented with a note, and a little
package—the note beingdrawn in the
following words :

NEW CANAAN, JUNE, 6, 1863.

REV. RALPH SMITH ;

DEAR SIR—Some of your
friends desiring to present you some tes-
timonial of the appreciation of your pas-
toral services, and of the kindness which
has always characterized your inter-
course with us, as friend, and neighbor,
have selected the accompanying Watch,
as a slight token of our regard. We-
were partly guided to this selection, by
the hope that its use would oft remind
you Of friends, who will ever cherish the
recollections of your ministrations here,
and who hope by faithfulness and Obedi-
ence, to realize the joys of that Gospel,
whose promises you have so often set be-

fore us.

When Time, whose successive portions,
man’s device so accurately measures,
shall merge in Eternity “unmeasured by
the flight of years,” may we and all, to
whom you have ministered—pastor and
people—be found united in ascriptions of
praise, to the author of that Gospel. .

With earnest prayers for your continu-
ed usefulness in the ministry, and sincere
desires for your happiness, we subscribe
ourselves, your friends.

(Signed by) NUMEROUS DONORS.

The package contained a valuable
Gold Watch, bought Of Mr. A. C. Bene.
dict,.28 Bowery, N. Y., who in view of
former residence, and continued attach-
ments at New Canaan, was pleased to
number himself among its donors.

In acknowledgment of the gift, a note
was returned by Mr. Smith, expressive of
his deep gratitdde and love for his peo-
ple, but which we have not the space to
insert.

WW—
Col. Wm. H. Noble.

As Col. Noble’s name has heretofore
publicly appeared in connection with un-
friendly criticism, we take the liberty of ma-
king the following extract from a private
letter, emanating from .a source which will
command respect and confidence every-
where :— . i
g ' " We are all in good spirits and the
men are fast recovering from their fa-
tigue, sore feet and other slight ailments,
and would be glad to march against the
enemy to-morrrow. They know that
they cannot be subjected to a more se-
vere ordeal than the one they have just
passed through and I think would fight
better in another conflct than they did
in the recent one. I saw Col. Von Gilsa
who commanded the first Brigade, and
he spoke in the highest terms of Co] No-
ble, and I think deservedly, he says he
was the bravest officer he saw on the
field, and a long way in the rear of any
other officer of his rank, with the right
wing of our regiment in good order,
with scattered portions of other regi-
ments which he had rallied around the
glorious banner of the little State of
Connecticut—heard him give the order
“about face” when his command poured
two volleys into the advancing foe, and
then retired in good order. This is not
the only testimony to his valor, for his
praise is in the mouth of hundreds—and
Col. Von Gilsa remarked that he was
worthy of the name he hears. I am not
ashamed of the conduct of our Brigade
or of the 17th Regiment Conn. Vol.
If you see Col. Noble give my love to
him, and tell him he is all right with his
regiment and every one who knows him
down here, and he will receive a hearty
welcome whenever he is able to return.

SOUTH NORWALK, CT, J one 15, ’63.

EDS. GAZETTE—Therewere four of us
that went to the Lake near Litchfield
fishing, instead of two, as stated in your
paper last week, by your “St Louis” cor-
respondent; this of course makes the
number of fish caught per man, much
less than stated, but we of the South
Norwalk; Grampus Club, only desire
credit for fishing that we are entitled to.
St. Louis states that we caught '17 and
refers to aprevious notice in your pa-
per—probably this is the number you‘
mentioned—if so, then you were misin-
formed—as we caught 67 pickers],
44 perch and 1 black bass (so culled,) in
all 112 fish, and all Were caught with
the hook and line; the largest pickerel
weighed 4lbs 1 oz., by actualweight,
and the smallest say half a pound, the
average isay from 1 1-2 to 1 3-4]bs——
the perch were large. Now, “St. Louis”

_states that five men in nine boars caught

970 fish, but he does not mention how,
if he means with a net, we do not doubt
it, but if with book and line, then ac-
cording as we figure, it is over a fish
every three minutes, for each of the five
men, for the whole nine hours, and th’ is
a trifle too large a fish story for us to
swallow. How is it St. Louis?
FOUR FISHERMEN.

la.Big fishingm—or big stories, which ?'
The only way to satisfy an Editor’s cre-
dulity is to send him some of the fish.
Don’t let this be forgotten hereafter1

CAVALBY FIGHT INVIRGINIA.
NEW YORK, June 10.—-A special to
the Times dated Beverly Ford, evening
of the 9th, says : You can record the
greatest fight of the war. Gen. Pleas-
auton this morning at daylight crossed
the Rappahannock in two columns, hiev
right at Beverly’s Ford, and left at Kel-
ly’s Ford, six miles below. The fords
were captured without loss. .

The right column was under Gen. Bu~
ford, and he had proceeded only a" mile
from the river, when he came upon Gen.
Jones’ whole brigade who had just sha-
ken themselves out of their sleep in time
to get ready to receive as. '

The fight now commenced and contin-
ued from 5 A. M., to 3 P. M., when the
whole force of Stuart, consisting (accor-
ding to papers found in their camp) of
12,000 cavalry and 6 pieces of artillery,
had begn engaged 'and driven back three
miles on the right, and five on the left,
wrth heavy loss, our forces forming a junc-
tion near Brandy Station, at 2 o’clock.
The fighting of both columns under Gen.
Bnfi‘ord and Gen. Gregg was very gal-
lant Not a single instance of misbeha-
. iour occurred. The grandest charge of
the day was made by the 6th Pennsylva-
nia cavalry, supported by the 6th regu-
lars, when they dashed on a whole brig-
ade of the enemy, and taken in flank by
another brigade, and though thorough-
ly overpowered cut their way out. Two
of Gen. Gregg's brigades under 00].
Wyndham and Col. Kilpatrick, had hot
work all the morning, but drove the cue-
my from the river to Brandy Station.

We drove them back handsomely and
captured 200 prisoners and one stand of
colors. They had five large brigades with
16 pieces of artillery. They had been
reviewed the previous day by General
Lee, and were under orders to leave on
their grand raid into Marylandand Penn-.
sylvania to-morrow (Wednesday) mor-
ning. ’

Important papers were captured in
the camp of Jones’ brigade, showing the
strength of the whole force, and its in-
tentions.

Our forces returned almost unmolest-
ed' to this side of the river. We lost
several valuable officers, among them
Co]. B. F. Davis, 8th New York; Licut.
Col. Irwin, 10th New York, Among
the wounded are—Co]. Wyndham, lst‘
New Jersey; Major Morris, 6th Penn-
sylvania; Lieut. Col. Broderick, 1st New
Jersey; and Major Stilmire, 1st New
Jersey.

The loss of the enemy in killed,
wounded and prisoners far exceed ours.
We got two or three Of their brigades
under fire of our artillery, withfihe shell
of short fuses, and tore them awfully.

Another dispatch says that our men
mad: a dozen charges into the midst of
the rebel ranks, relying almost entirely
upon the sabre which they used with ter-
rible effect. The enemy relied more up-
on their revolvers. Both sides were re-
peatedly driven back in the course of the
battle, though we sncceded in driving
the whole rebel force back to a point
six miles southwest of the point‘ where
their pickets were first eucounflzred.—
Gen. Pleasanton here found the enemy
so strongly reinforced with artillery and
infantry that he thought it prudent to
retire.

He brought off 200 prisoners, his
wounded, and the bodies of the Officers
'who had been killed.

MESSRS. EDITORS—I supposed when I
left home, that I' had left behind me
some good Union friends in my broth-
ers-iu-law, and in fact, they~were at the
time; but Oh! cruel conscription, why
DID you scare my poor brother-in-law,
James Smith, for he don’t want to give
up his good ocupation of catching clams
yet.

Yes friend Byiugton, it has made him
a copperheud; worse ' u_ a traitor—
but I forgive him knowing his weakness.
He knows not what he does; but worst
of all, I have another brother-in-law,
that I loved as I did a brother, and he
has grown weak in the knee-joints, poor
fellow. He enlisted in the 17th Conn,
Vols., and after pocketing all the boun-
ties, he remained with the Regt. about
three months, and two months and twen-
ty-nine days of that, be was in the hos-
pital, with a big vein in his leg, poor fel-
low; he has got his discharge and is now
at home, working in Mr. Gnthery’s knob
factory. Poor follow; his camp life did
not suit him and _he is now a “‘copper-
head, and particularly down on the war.”

What a glorious thing it is, that we
have not got many such. Thank God,
there dre plenty of stout hearts and
willing hands left yet, to put down all
traitors, both North and South, and I
think I ought to knew something how
the soldiers feel concerning this uccursed
rebellion, for I am now, as you know,
Hospital Steward in one of the largest
Hospitals in this city, and I never have
heard one say that he wished to return
home until this accursed rebellion was

' put down, and the stars and stripes

floating oyel‘ .emery State ip this Glori-
ous Union. ' A

And new friend Byington. if you will;
insert this- in your excellent paper, you,
will cenfer a great favor on me.

Times are very prosperous in this city
at the present lime. Our noble General
(Gen. Schenck) and our brave and ef-
ficient Provost Marshall, are doing a
great work in crushing this rebellion,
by sending all whe ar'e tainted with "se-
ces ” down South, to Dixie, where I
would to God that all the copperheads
of the North were, where they could
commune with their brother traitors, but-
oh] what am I saying; poor fellows, Jeff
wont have them they are too mean for
him. Very Respectfully,

SENATE.—-Pl'ayel' by Rev. Mr Hull.
The subject of amending the charter

of the Honsatonic Railroad Company
taken up. It was stated that the com-
pany desired to construct a branch road
from the village of Kent, to connect
with the Harlem road and claim the
right according to their charter, to
extend the road at such points as they
may deem expedient, when the distances
does not exceed ten miles. No evidence
appeared before the committee, however
that the company intended to build the
bi'anch road. The city of Bridgeport
and numerous citizens Of Feirfield county
send a remonstrance to the Legislature,
to prohibit the company from building
the road. The committee report against
the petitioners, deeming legislation on the
subject unnecessary. Mr. Bennet, Sena-
tor from the 10th. hereupon introduces

a resolution, restricting the company‘

from building the contemplated branch,
unless by consent of the Legislature. Af-
ter considerable discussion the resolution

Middletown, moved to strike out that
part of the bill which provides for the
leasing of the Danbury 8; Norwalk road
to the H P «it F R R. Mr. Hubbard said
he denied to give the H P At F R R
precisely what they ask'ed foyfithe exten-
sion of time for the completion Of. the
road—but he did not want to sanction
any side issues which were evidently the
work of railroad speculators.

Mr. Gallup of Plainfield, said the part
proposed to be stricken out was merely
to carry out an agreement between the
roads, and he could see no validity in the
claim thatit tyne wrong.

Mr. Cleveland (Mr. Sterling of Fair—

After further remarks by several mem-

the only question before the House was up-

HOUSE—Prayer by Rev. Mr. Morgan
member from Groton.

Report adverse to petition of Sterling
et al for alteration of charter of the Hon-
eatonic Railroad Company ; tabled.

Mr. Tomlinsou of Bridgeport moved
to take up the report of the Committee
on the Honsatonic railroad; carried. He
then moved a substitute for the resolu-
tion reported; the substitute provides
that under the general powers in the
charter of the Housatonic railroad to
construct branches to connect with quar-
ries, mines, manufacturing establishments
and important villages, no branch shall
be built to connect with uuv other rail-
road, withont first obtaining consent of
the general assembly.

Mr. Sterling reviewed the facts in the
history Of the case, and advocated the
substitute rrsolution. Bridgeport had
subscribed $650,000 to build the Honsa-
tonic road. It was not proposed to
repeal any part' of their charter, but sim-
ply to restrict its application and not al-
low a branch to be built which would
divert trade to New York, without a
hearing before the legislature.

Debated further by Messrs. Booth and
Gilbert of Danbury, Woodruff of Litch-
field, Cowles of Farmington, Gallup of
Pluinfieid, Gallagher and others in favor
of the committee; and Messrs. Hubbard
of Middletown, Tomlinson of Bridgeport,
Cummings of Darien, Sterling of Fair-
field, Eaton of Hartford, Manson of
Seymour, Peck of Monroe, Taylor and
Baldwin of New Milford, Pomeroy of
Fairfield and others in favor of the sub-
stitute resolution proposed by Mr. Tom-
linson Of Bridgeport.

A motion of the gentlemen from Glas-
tenbury to lay on the table was lost, 62
yeas to 65 hays.

The question being upon the passage
of the resolution introduced by Mr. Tom-
linson, and when the speaker had stated
the qeustion,

Mr. Eaton moved to adjourn.

Motion declared not in order by the
chair. The decision of the chair was ap-
pealed from by Mr. Eaton, and sustained
by the House. The qeestion Was put
and the resolution lost.

Mr Eaton moved to lay the report of
the committee on the table on account Of

WTHE RECENT DEATH of the venerable
Lyman Beecher is doubtless a very distress-
ing circumstance to his family and friends.
But we question whether it can compare
with the loss of such a man as F. B. BALD-
WIN, of 70 and 72 Bowery, N. Y., where
habits, of clothing furnished to thousands Of
our citizens, have made his name synoni-
mous with fame. Happily the contingency
referred to seems to be exceedingly remote;
so “viva BALDWIN, long may he flOurish!”

Call for Herrick Allen’s Gold Medal Sale-
ratus. Agitate until you get it. If your
grocer has not got it, ask him to go to the
wholesale Agent, get a box, and try it. It is
the best in the world. Do not be put off
with any other. Use it instead of soda; it is
a great deal better. Try it. Most Merchants
have it. Their depot is 118 Liberty Street,
