Norwalk, Tuesday, June 30, 1863.

The Situation.

‘This (Monday) morning, the rebels
are reported to be in front of the in-
treuchments at Harrisburg ; if so, we
must soon have something definite and
decisive from therc.= There appears no
room for doubt but that Lee’s whole army
is now north of the Potomac, and our
own army between them and Washing-
ton, and it is evident a great battlemust
soon be fought.

Gen. Hooker has been relieved, at his
own request, it is stated, and Major-Gen.
George G. Meade, late in command of
the'Fifth Corps, succeeds him. Gen. M.
bears a good record as a brave and capa-
ble oflicer, and we trust he will lead the
Army of the Potomac on to victory, de-
stroy Lee’s army, and squelch the rebel-
lion. The news from the West and South
West is encouraging. Rosecranz’s army
is said to be on the move. . From the
Peninsula we hear that the Richmond
people are much alarmed for the safety
of their city, they reporting that General
Dix is moving against it with a large
army, while nearly the whole of their

force is off with Lee invading Pennsylva-
nia. We have reason to believe this re-
port to be true, and hope to be able to
print good news from all sections in our
next. Now is the trying time of the Re-
public; a few days will tell the story
whether the rebellion is to be crushed
now or the war prolonged for an indefi-
nite period. We can but put trust in the
great giver of good, hoping and trusting
that He who ordereth all things for the

best will not allow the Republic to perish.

Fire.

The Knob Manufactory of Messrs.
Wheeler & Wood, situated at the foot of
Marshall Street, South Norwalk, was de-
stroyed by fire on Friday night last. The
fire is supposed to have caught from the
drying kilns. There was an insurance of
$1000 on the buildings, but nothing on
stock or materials. AbOut a thousand dol-
lars worth of stock and coal was saved.
This makes the second heavy loss that
this firm has met with the past year, but
we understand that they will endeavor
to rebuild their mauufactory immediately,
in a neat and substantial manner. Phoe-
nix Engine and Hose Co. No. 1, and
Vigilaut Hose, NO. 2, from the Bridge,
although far removed and it being out
of their limits, promptly repaired to the
fire on the first alarm, and were instru-
mental in saving most of the coal, &c.
They were warmly received and their
services gratefully acknowledged.

The Strawberry Festivals.

The week just passed, has about finish-
ed the season for these pleasant festive
gatherings, and, we believe, that they
have been, without exception, very suc-
cessful. The Baptist Society, of South
Norwalk, led off, making an excellent
display of Fruit and Flowers. The 1st
M. E. Church next gave one of their rich
treats to their numerous friends. They
were followed by the Burnside Light
Guard, in an entertainment at Ely’s Hall,
Wednesday eveping. The Hall was jam-
med by the largest company ever gather-
ed together at one of these Festivals in
this vicinity. The audience were enter-
tained with most excellent music by the
Wheeler & Wilson Band, singing by a
good choir, &c. The Second M. E. So-
ciety wound up the season, at Norwalk
Hall, Thursday and Friday evenings,
with an entertainment by the Sabbath
School Children, which would be hard to
surpass. They were eminently successful.
having the large Hall filled each evening
with a well pleased audience. Friday
evening a large delegation was present
from Sau'gatuck, each person conspicuous-
ly wearing a small Union Flag.

In Darieu, the Festival given by the
Noroton Chapel, was an extraordinary
success. Some idea of the crowd present
may be inferred from the fact that D’Ar-
tois disposed of sixty quarts of ice cream.

D’Artois, as usual, was present at all
of these gatherings; in fact he appears to.
be an indispensable attachment.

Death of Admiral Foote.

Another great and good man has fal-
len. Connecticut mourns for a noble
and gallant son. The death of Admiral
Foote came not unexpectedly, either to
himself or the country. For some time
he labored under a severe malady, broght
on by close application to ardious duties,
which threatened at any moment to ter-
minate his life.
half past ten o’clock, he breathed his
last at the Astor House New York.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12th, 1806, being a son of Samuel A.
Foote, who was both Governor of Con-
necticut and Senator Of the United
States. Young Foote entered. the naval
service as midshipman in 1822, rising
gradually by promotion for meritorious
conduct, till in 1836, he was Flag Lieut.
of the Mcditterranean squadron. He
became Commander, Dec. 12th, 1852.
In 1856, while in the China. station, he
strove to protect American property
during the war between England and
China. The Chinese having fired on
him, he bombarded and captured their
forts.

At the commencement of the rebellion
he was executive officer of the Brooklyn
navy-yard. How he was transferred to
St. Louis, how he built up our flotilla on
the Western waters, what gallantry be
displayed at Fort Henry, Fort Donelson
and Island No. 10, what advantages
those achievements conferred on the
Union cause, are fresh in the memory of
every citizen. At Fort Donelson he was
severely wounded in the footgpby the
fragment of a shell. For some time
thereafter, however, he continued in ac-
tive service, till the upper Mississippi had
been completely opened, when he accept-
ed a furlough for the purpose of regain-
ing his wasted health. He was subse-
quently appointed chief of Bureau Euqip—
ment and Recruiting at Washington.
Being recently ordered to relieve Admir-

wheu he was seized, with this last and
fatal illness.

Admiral Foote was distinguished for
his virtues as a Chrsitian and a philan-
thropist, He zealously endeavored to in-
troduce the principle of total abstinence
from intoxicating drinks into the navy,
to suppress the slave trade, and to pro-
mote religious reforms. He wrote sever-
al interesting and valuable papers, too,
on Japan and the slave trade. Admiral
Foote was twice married. His first wife
was Miss Flagg, of Cheshire, by whom
he had a daughter, now married. His
second wife was a Miss Street of New
Haven, by whom he had three sons, two
of whom have died within a year. He
leaves a widow, a son and daughter.

‘ disaster.

Last Friday night at

He was born at Cheshire, Conu., Sept.-

al Duponl, he had started for Port Royal,

 

MajorGenoral Geo. G. Meade.

This able and experienced Officer, who
has been promoted to the chiefcommuod
of the Army of the Potomac, was born
in Spain in 18l6, entered the Military
Academy at West Point from the Dis-
trict of Columbia, and was graduated
there in 1839 and appointed 2d Lieuten-
ant in‘the 3d Artillery, resigned his com-
missron Oct. 26, 1836, was appointed 2d
Lieutenant in the Topographical Engi-
neers May 19, 1842, was breveted 1st
Lieutenant for gallantry at Monterey in
1846, became lst Lieutenant in August,
1851, Captain May 19, 1856, Major in
June, 1860, and Brigadier General of,
Volunteers August 31, 1861. Few offi-
cers have performed more arduous duties
or rendered more distinguished and faith-
ful serviceto the country since the com-
mencement of the war. In the seven
days’ fight before Richmond, General»
Meade was struck by a ball which enter-
ed his side and passed through his body,
making a severe and painful wound.—
Under tender and skillful treatment be
rapidly recovered, and it was scarcely
known that he had left his conch when
he was in his saddle, ready to take part
in the sauguinary battle of South Moun-"
tain and Antietam. In these engage-
ments he commdnded the Pennsylvania
Reserves, 9. corps whose reputation for
courage .and discipline has been surpass-
ed by none. He was with that corps
in the battle of Drainsville, on the
Chickahominy and in Maryland. When
Gen. Hooker was wounded at Antietam, .

Gen. McClellan placed Gen. Meade in; .
.ternoon informed us that “the army of
the Potomac is in motion, and will soon

command of the corps which had just
been deprived of its heroic leader. Du-
ring the actiouGen. Meade received a
slight contusion from a spent grape shot, .
and had two horses killed under him.
He distinguished himself greatly during
the battle, being in the thickest of the
fight encouraging his men by his deeds
of during and valor. At Fredericksr
burg he maintained his reputation for-
coolness, courage and skill, winning the
unstinted applause of the army and the
hearty congratulations of a grateful and
appreciative people.

W
Activity of our Navy.

The activity and success of our fleet,
at the presest time, are peculiarly grati-
fying. The rebels have made strenuous
endeavors to build up a navy, but thus
far their endeavors have ended only in
Iron-clad after iron-clad, built
with great labor and expense, under the.
most disadvantageous circumstances,
they have either lost in battle, or been
compelled to voluntary sacrifice. Not
long since, it will be remembered, Ad:
miral Porter destroyed an extensive na-
vy yard up the Yazoo. and burned sev-
eral formidable war vessels, which were
rapidly approaching completion. Ad-
miral Farragut destroyed ._the rebel fleet
in the Mississippi and Vicksburg and.
Port Hudson, and up the Red River.—
Only a few days ago the long-dreaded
Atlanta was captured from the enemy'
and added to the Union navy. About
the same time the Chatahooche perished
from its defective construction. It is
known that the confederate, government
made extraordinary exertions to put-
afloat the several war ships, which have
thus been wrested from them. Such a
succession‘ of uninterrupted disasters, will
probably disenhearten them from attemp-
iug further enterprises, in a department
where they have met nothing but disap- .

ointment.

Within the past three weeks, blockade
runners have been equally unfortunate.
On the 5th inst. the Isaac Smith, a very
fast steamer, was sunk on Charleston bar
while attempting to run out, heavily la-
den with cotton. Ou the 10th, one
of the three large steamers built in Eng-
land, and whose construction for unlawful
purposes excited so much comment both
there and here, was run ashore and fired
near Charleston harbor. The following
day the iron steamer Calypso, with a
very valuable cargo, was captured of
the coast of North Carolina. The same.
day the Herald from Nassau, was sunk:
ofl“ Charleston. Our blockadiug fleet
seems to have adopted the policy of firing
on blockade runners. While this may
diminish the sum total of prize money, it
will contribute materially to seal the
southern ports. .

If our navy met with equal success in
the capture of the numerous piratical
craft now infestiug the see, every semb-
lance of rebel power‘oqthe water would
soon be destroyed.—— Cannot.

Afl‘airs ,at Port Hudson. p

The New York Herald’s New Orleans
and Port Hudson advices by the Creole,
report the attack on Port Hudson the
14th as a repulse to the federals, and that
Banks has not troops for the work before
him. Our troops fought bravely, and
lost in killed and wounded nearly 1000
including 5 colonels. It can hardly be
called a repulse, fOr our forces gained.
some two hundred yards on the rebel
works, and held their advance. It was
expected that another assault would be.
made on the 19th. Col. Dudley has vol-
unteered, and was to lead a “folorn hope”
or storming column of 4,000 men, all pick-
ed men and volunteers. ' The result of
this attack remains to be known.

A Port Hudson letter to the Boston
Journal, dated June 17th, says :

“ Another brave, gallant, glorious at-
tack was made on Port Hudson, on Sun’-
day, but unsuccessful—nusuccessful as
regards forcing an entrance into this
stronghold and keystone of the rebellion,’
but not unsuccessful in so far as advanta-
ges were gained which are many steps
toward final conquest

“Gen. Banks has issued an order call:
ing for athousand volunteers to consti-
tute a storming party to enter Port Hud-
son in a day or two. Though twice re-
pulsed, there is no lack of volunteers, the
brave army of the Gulf sharing the spirit
of their comrades that “succes. is duty—
defeat is crime."

At the fight of the 14th the left wing
lost some 200 in killed and wounded. The

centre merely skirmished, and the loss was '

light. The right was most fiercely en-
gaged. The troops of Gene. Grover,
Weitzei and Paine were thrown rapidly
forward and hurled up close to the once
my’s works. They fought bravely, but
were compelled to fall back with the loss
of hundreds of their best men and many
of their officers.

3? Two Norwalk Companies are sup-
ppsed to have been in the engagement,—
one in the 12th Regiment, and one in the
28th Regiment. It is rumored that sev-
eral Norwalk boys are wounded, but we

have no particulars.

Monday’s War News.

 

One of the most daring and least suc-
cessful exploits of the war came 00' at
Portland on Friday night. The United
States revenue-cutter Caleb Cashing,
which had been for some time in that
harbor was misSed on Saturday morning.
She was provisioned and armed for a
two months cruise. Two steamers, the
Cheaspeake and Forest City, were at
once sent to find her, and soon found her.
The cutter made fight firing half a doz-
en shots at the Forest City, but doing
no damage. The Chespeake having come

"up, it was determined to board the Cash-

iug. That vessel, finding escape impos-
sible, was abandoned by her crew, set on
fire and soon after blew up. All the
crew were captured, when it became
known that they were the former crew of
the famous pirate Tacouy; that having
learned of the preparations made for their
capture, and deeming escape next to im-
possible, they had put their property

‘aboard a small schooner, one not likely

to be suspected, and burned the Tacouy—
at least so they say. They then steered
for Portland, with the intention of get-
ting possession of this revenue cutter, with
which to make another piratical cruise.
The Rebel pirates numbered 23, comman-

ded by'Lieut. C W. Reed. It was their

intention to destroy all the shipping in
port, including the two new guuboats
there being built. There is a story
that one boat, carrying 10 pirates, es-
cap‘ed, but this is doubtful.

A censorized dispatch of Saturday af-

be to the front and north of Baltimore.
The heavy rains have made the roads so
bad that the movements are uecessarialy
slow.” The Times adds to this; "We are
'enabled'further to say that the entire ar-
my of Gen; Hooker is on the north side

of the POtomac, and will soon be heard
.from by the public. The locations of the

various corps, so far as they are known
to us, it would be improper to disclose.”
The wholeRebel army is also on the
north side of the Potomac, but it is very
much scattered. , The last corps under
A. P. Hill, crossed at Williamsport on
Friday, and was on Saturday at Rogers-
town, and a' dispatch of later date states
that they have all gone through Hagers-
town, Lougstreet’s corps being the rear
guard. The Rebels recently at South
Mountain and at Boonsboro, Md., ap-
pear to have left those localities, and to
be concentrating at Sharpsburg.

I —We learn from Fortress Monroe that

-the 11th Pennsylvania Cavalry, Col.
'Spear, recently made a trip to South
'Ann river, destroyed the bridge and cap-

tured over 100 prisoners, among them
Gen. W. F. Lee, Col. Hearsable, four
captains and five lieutenants. They also
took 350 mules, 75. horses, and $15,000
in Confederate Bonds from a Rebel
Government agent. No private proper-
ty was touched. Our loss was only
three killed and eight wounded.

—-We are apprised that the army of
Gen. Rosecrans is in motiou. In corrob-
oration of this The Cincinnati Gazette
of the 26th has the following : “ We
received 3a business dispatch from Mur-
freesboro last evening, but nothing from
our correspondent. We mention this to
show that the wires were in order; and
second, to indicate that Mirfreesboro is
'no longer the headquarters of the Army
of theiflu-mberland. The Nashville Union
of Tuesday reports Shelbyville evacua-
ted by the Rebels, and that our forces
from Triune had moved to take posses-
Au authorized dispach says that
all except one division moved on Wednes-
day, 24th inst.

——'Oficial reports from Vicksburg, re-
ceived at Washington, confirm all the
previous accounts of the favorable posi-
tion of afl'airs there. The forces of Gen.
Grant are in fine spirits, and do not an-
ticipate any trouble from ,the movements
of Gen. Johnson. The Washington Re-
publica’n. of Friday says: “ private ad-
vices, dated, Vicksburg, J uue 22, are re-
ceived from Gen. Grant’s army. Every-
thing is progressing steadily. Johnson
manages to'~ keep out of Grant’s reach.
The new of the fall of the Rebel strong-
hold is hourly expccted.” Welearu by
a dispatch from Cairo that a heavy cau-
onading was Opened all along our lines
on Saturday of last week, and continued
until Sunday evening. ' '

—New. Orleans correspondence is to
the 2lst inst. Very little was known of
affairs at Port Hudson beyond the. fact

“' of the assault 'and'repulse of Sunday,

14th inst. It was understood that our
lines were very near the Rebel works, so
near in some. places that the enemy tried
to use hand grenades, and that our posi-
tion was‘very strong. . Re-euforcements
had been sent to Gen. Banks, but how
many is not stated. Louisiana has been
denuded of’troops to help Banks, and
the Rebel guerrillas are coming from
their hiding places, now and then, to steal
and destroy property. ,

Mr. Eaton moved to lay upon the ta-

. Mr. Cowles moved to table for print-
mg.
Motion carried, and the resolution was
tabled for printing.

On motion of Mr. Wright the militia
bill was taken up.

Mr. Wright explained the provisions
of the bill and the reason for the action
of the committee in preparing portions
of the bill. The entire expense of launch-
ing this scheme in the state would be
about $500,000 and it would involve an
annual expense thereafter of about $100,-
000. . The cost of the militia system in
force in this state from 1847 to 1855
was from $60,000 to $80,000. Only two
additidnal salaried oflicers were created
and the additional expense was only
about $1,800. Not one cent of these
salaries is paid by the State. The gen-
eral government refunds the money. He
explained how great economy was main-
tainediu the matter of court martials,
&c., in many instances there being an ac-
tual saving to the treasury. '

One hundred additional copies were
, ordered printed.

bill and the proposed amendments to the
committee. There were eight or ten

signed to make voluntary.

.The military committee reported the
adjutaut general’s report as correct; ac-
cepted and ordered on file.

The new militia bill special order for
tq-lday, was taken up and read twice by its
ti e.

Mr. Wright said he had an estimate
to submit to the House, which was based
upon the actual military eXpeuses of last
year and approved by the heads of the
departments. It was rather above than
below the real cost of “running the bill.”

The actual expense of the state for the
first year will be $311,294.50. The an-
nual expense for each of the three follow-
ing yours will be $45,764, and for each
four years, when the bill provides for
new uniforms, $83,264. This estimate is
based upon items down to a bundle of
straw. We find upon actual enquiry
that infantry equipments can be con-
tracted for at $4,, cavalry sabrcs- at $5
and muskets at $20. The armory rent
for each company is placed at $100 per
anuum., In cities it may be more and
in country towns it will be less, some ca-
ses not over $25. It has been compu:
ted at $70 or: $80, but we place it at
$100, in order to make the estimate as
liberal as possible. The cost of uniforms
in the bill is placed at $20, and of ser-
geants’ sashes and swords at $10. We
find after enquiry, that uniforms may be
contracted for at $15, and sashes and
swords at $7. We have made the esti-
mate liberal iu every particular in order
that the‘ state may not be subjected to
unexpected expenditures.

There are two propositions that under-
lie this bill. The'first is, will the State
of Connecticut purchase military stores
to the amount of $311,000, and put them
in the arsenals; And secondly, after
making the purchase, will she adopt a
military bill making 10,000 of her. sons
use them eight days in the year. If this
House does not wish to provide for an
emergency, they will reject the bill. If
they deem it wise and discreet that these
two propositions should be adopted, they
‘ will adopt the bill. The committee ask
as a favor that the House will consider
the bill by offering amendments, as last
year, without adopting them, and recom-
mit the bill and proposed amendments
to the committee. This should be done
today, and the bill again reported by
Tuesday next.

The method of considering the bill was
debuted at length and finally concurred
in, with the understandingtha‘t the bill
should be subject to amendment hereaf-
ter. -

The bill was read by sections and
various amendments offered ;‘ among
them that the major general should be
nominated by field officers and brigadier
general and field officers, by commission-
ed ofiicers of companies,- to erase there-
from all that relates to encampmeuts; to
make it Optional with the captain gener-
eral to order encampmeuts; to strike out
the clause recording the causes of physi-
cal exemption; .to erasetlre portion pro—
viding uniforms by the state; to pay five
cents per mile for travelling expenses in-
stead of a total of $1,50.

The prOceedings were 'eutirely of an
informal character, and much conversa-
tional discussion ensued upon the sugges-
tions offered.

Extensive Raid South of La-
grange Tennessee.

MEMPHIS, Wednesday J one 24, 1863.

Col Misener has just returned from an
extensive cavalry expedition south from
Lagrange. He reports having broken
up the command under George at Pano-
la, destroyed the railroad bridge at Jack-
away, the trestle-work just beyond, and a,
portion of the road from there north; he
then crossed the Tallahatchie, and pursu-
ed Chalmers beyoud the Goldwater, ou
the Helena ROad.

Chalmers endeavored to cross the Tal-
lahatchie at the north of the Goldwater
when Misener killed 15 or 20 of his men,
and took 40 prisoners. He paroled. all
the sick at Panels, brought away or de-
stroyed all army supplies, workshops,
mills, tannerics, depots, &c.,

He passed within three miles of Ans-
tin and Commerce, destroying an im-
mense amount of forage and subsistence
took from 600 to 800 horses and mules,
500 head of cattle; sent detachemnts
north from Helena, to destroy or bring
away all subsistence, forage,horses, mules
&c., passed through five counties, travel-
ed 200 miles and crossed three rivers.

Philips destroyed all the ferries at Pa-
nola and Goldwater, lost one man killed
and five wounded. His fight at Talla-
hatchie was very severe. The enemy’s
loss was over 100.

Gen. Gorplesou has made a speech at
Oxford, Miss, threatening to force into
service every man in the county if com—
panies are not organized to re-enforce

@0f the new counterfeit $20 and

the imitation that not one man in a hun-
dred would notice the slightest difference
at first sight, and it is ouiy by the minn-
test examination and comparison that
any one but’nu expert can detect the spa-
rious from the genuine.» The paper agrees
with the genuine in complexion and text-
ure, but upon a critical examination and
comparison, the eye detects a slight devi-
ation in the shading of the vignette, in the
text of the lettering, and a slight defect
in the signatures of the President and
Cashier. Only a small amount of the
genuine bills of those denominations are
in circulation, and they will immediately
