WM. L. QUINTARD. Town Com. Norwalk, Feb. 8th,1864. Tuesday, 1' The Public Greeting to the Re- enlisted Veterans. In accordance with the call issued in our last, a meeting was held on Tuesday evening, and arrangements made for a public recep- tion of our re-enlisted Veterans, to be given on Friday evening next. Our citizens have responded liberally to the call for funds to defray the expense, and it has been deter- mined to have a public reception at Lock- wood’s Hall, at 7 O’clock, P. M., with a few short speeches, interspersed with music, to be followed by a supper at. Norwalk Hall, at 9 1-2 o’clock. Invitations have been cxtend~ ed to the Governor, Lieut. Governor and other gentlemen to attend and give ad- dresses. ‘ . It is unnecessary to call on our citizens to fill the Hall at the reception. The interest already manifested is a sufiicient assurance that there is no lack of desire on the part of those who have pursued the arts of peace at home to testify their appreciation of the he- roic devotion of our brave Veterans in the camps and on the battle-fields of our country. Tickets of admission to the supper will not be sold, but will be given out to subscrib- ers to the fund, in the manner and under the restrictions prescribed by the Committee of Arrangements. We are’ requested to give the following notice to the re-enlistcd soldiers: The rc-enlisted Veteran Volunteers who were credited to the quota of Norwalk at the time of their original enlistment, now home on furlough, are requested to register their names at the ofilce of Andrew Selleck, as soon as possible, that ladies’ tickets may be made out for them for the supper at Nor- walk Hall, on Friday evening next. The re-enlisted Veterans are requested to meet at the Armory of the Norwalk Guards, Phenix Block, at 6 1-2 o’clock. .‘.>.

WWe hear that the site or the Norwalk , Paper Mill has been purchased by a compa- ny of gentlemen, who intend erecting there- on a large Factory. Who gave the deed, or what was paid for it, we do not know, 'but wish the new company success, and may the prosperity of the new Factory drive away lingering, bitter memories of the “Norwalk Act incorporating the Norwalk ‘Water Company.

We have ever been keenly alive to every and all measures calculated to add to the rare and wonderful natural attractions of Norwalk; yet in no instance have we presented a public measure so fraught with utility and comfort, blessing and beauty, as this subject which now chal- lenges the reader‘s attention. Gas we have, a street railway, also, and various other me- tripolitan “ modern conveniences,” yet in the matter of water—pure, cold water—which the good Lord has made as free and plenti- ful as the air we breathe, we are here, in ,Norwalk, sadly deficient: Indeed, so desti- tute are we of this every where plentiful e1- ement, that every citizen who insures his dwelling pays annually an onerous tax be- cause of our deficient means of making it available in the event of fire. Citizens of Norwalk—you who love the time-honored home of your nativity—imag- ine for one moment the immense significance of the introduction of water into all your grounds, your dwellings and workshops i- In the mere matter of ornament—for foun- tains in parks and grounds—it would be worth all it can possibly cost; but when we et- as es el- ’a’r Paper Company," and its management. consider its value as a means of arresting fire, its use for the domestic purposes of the household, its convenience at the stable and . barn, and its worth in the mechanical oper~ , ations of the workshop, the magnitude of the measure rises far beyond any present, computation. For the glory of Norwalk} and the advantage of its citizens, may we 5 not predict its early consummation? , ——-—--«.m>———--—— The Winslow Will Case. This important case which has been on trial before the Superior Court, at Bridge- port, for some time past, and which has ex- cited great public interest, has at length been terminated by a settlement. It is generally known that Mr. Winslow died at Westport, about three years since, leaving a widow— the present Mrs. Winslow—surviving him. He also left three daughters, by a former wife who obtained a divorce from him in New York, on the ground of his adulteries, some seven or eight years before his deceasc. Within a few months after the divorce he married Mary Fitch, of Norwich, by whom he had no children. To her, by his will, he gave his entire estate, without limitation, after making some provision for other rela- tions, and giving trifling legacies to his daughters. The daughters were born and have always lived in New York. Believing that their father, who, it seems, was tender- ly attached to them, had not thus cut them off while in his right mind, and without the exercise of undue influence on the part of his last wife and her friends, the daughters took an appeal from the order of the Court of Probate for the District of Westport, ad- mitting the will to Probate, to the Superior Court; and it is the trial of this appeal which has just been brought to a close. The preparation on both sides was im- mense, and probably no case has ever been tried in this State which has occupied so much time and involved so large an amount, or which has excited such wide-spread and universal interest. The trial had already lasted six weeks, and would probably have consumed at least another week, had not the case been finally settled. What are the terms of the settlement we are not exactly informed, but understand that the daughters receive enough to make them all independ- ent, while a fortune every way ample is left to the widow. The counsel for the children were, Messrs- Chapman, Carter, Beardsley and Wilson, of this ,State, and Messrs. Noyes and Corbett, New York. For Mrs. Winslow, Messrs. Hawley, Loomis, Perkins, Seymour and Waite, of this State, and L. Chapman, of New York. -<.>- The Ball. “As we predicted, so it happened,” as the New York Herald so often says. We do not remember ever to have seen a more select, refined and pleasant company assembled at a ball in this town, than that which graced the one given by the Norwalk Guards, at Lockwood’s Hall, last week. The attend. ance was quite large, and everything passed off very pleasantly. The band was compos- ed of eight musicians, selected by Mr. Geo. W. Allen, who has been leader in Brookcs’ Dancing Academy, in New York, for many years, and gays excellent satisfaction, and was pronounced fully equal to “Wallace’s Band,” which has so often been engaged here. Many military men from other places were present, and ladies and gentlemen from Stamford, and other towns in this vicinity. Balls of this character are seldom pecu- niarily successful; but we are glad to learn that, in this instance, the managers—to whom much credit is due for the success of the affair—not only cleared themselves, but will be able to pay something into the trea- sury of the Company. The supper was furnished by “ Foster,” at the Company Ar- mory. May the next ball of “ 00. G.” be as pleasant as the last. .‘.>. Lamas Arranrrou.—One oi the Town’s Heroes, a Veteran Volunteer, writing from So. Norwalk, wants to know “Why the young ladies are so much afraid of Sol- diers ? Are they ashamed of a blue uniform, or are they all Copperheads ? What young lady will answer on behalf of herself and halts-dozen other young Ladies, making in all a Baker’s half-dozen?” Our Veteran friend seems to have been peculiarly unfortunate in the manner of his receptiOn by the fair sex, and we are at a loss to account for the treatment he intimates he has received at their hands, knowing as we do, the devotion which ladies always show for “blue coats and brass buttons,” es- pecially when they are adorned with a live hero. We think “Veteran” laboring under a “strange hallucination” in supposing that the girls are afraid of soldiers, and to settle the question, suggest that he try the experi . ment of “shining up” to some beautiful “An- gel without wings” and tenderly inviting her to call upon some minister, and then to help him spend his bounty money, &c., and if she does not accept the invitation and repeat the wonderful words "Love, Hon or and—obey” we will own up mistaken; but if she does the printer will expect a piece of cake with an extra raisin in.

The Prussian Minister of War has address- ed a letter to a company in Hallo, inquiring into the expediency of collecting warm cloth- ing for the army. He says that a portion of the army and navy will probably be required soon to enter upon a bloody winter campaign Prussia being on the threshold of important decisions, likely to influence the whole polit- ical future of the country. Insurrection is brewing Hungary. Kos- suth is among his old friends and has issued an address, assuming quasi dictatorial powers and urging the people to prepare for action. Austria attempts to meet the emergency by the concentration of troops on the frontier. TheMa are are enthusiastic and determined. Italy is impatient _for the complete estab- lishment of her nationality. The King ex- pressed the hope on New Year’s day that the country would accomplish in 1864, what it had failed to accomplish in 1808. . Sweden and Norway seem stron ly inclin- ed to make common cause with. enmark, on the Schleswig Holstein question. At a large meeting held in Christiana the last week in December, the principal men of the town expressed earnest sympathy for Den. mark. Afterward the assembkv. unanimous- ly voted an address to the rug, insisting that in fightin for Schleswig, Denmark is fightin for all candinavia, and deserves the aid of weden and Norway. The University of Upssl has also published an address taking the same ground. They say that tolook on passively while the struggle is going forward, would cover all Scandinavia with disgrace.

STATE OF CONNECTICUT, Orsrcn on THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIRF, ( Hartford, Feb. 3, 1864. l The call for three hundred thousand ‘ (300,000) volunteer-:2 by the President, on the 17th of October last, is, by his Proclamation thousand (500,000); and the quota assigned to the several towus in this state will be increased in the same proportion. The quota for Connecticut is estimated at this Ofilcc to be nine thousand and fifty-three (9,053), from which will be deducted four thousand four hundred and seventy-seven (4,477) who have enlisted within the state, as well as all re-enlistments of veterans in the field, which, from partial returns receiv- ed, will probably number twenty-six hun- dred and fifty (2,659), leaving a deficiency of nineteen hundred and twenty-six (1,928) to be supplied before the 1st of March. Any deficiency which may exist on the 10th of that month will be made up by a draft from those towns which shall not then have furnished their quota. The necessity of giving a vigorous support to the National Government, and the import- ance of an early and successful military campaign against the public enemies, are strong appeals to our patriotism, and should stimulate us to make every efi‘ort and sacri- fice which may be necessary to meet this call without a draft.

State bonds, payable Jan. 1, 1884, were opened at noon on Satur- day week. The state of the market is just now unfavorable for high premiums, and so the bonds sold much lower than those of last year. There were bids for $4,008,800, at prices from par to 5 1-4 per cent. premium, at which latter rate Geo. C. Treadwell & Co., of Albany, offered to take a few. Gov. Buckingham bid $102 15-100 for $10,000, and $101 35-100 for $10,000. Ketchum & Sons, of New York, bid $101 for the whole cr none, and, as their bid averaged the high- est, they will take the lot and will make the money on it. -<.>. Rncnurrs—A recent circular from the Provost Marshal General, says the Journal, gives notice that the premiums of $25 for veterans, and $15 for raw recruits, will be hereafter paid to any non-commissioned officer, private or citizen who presents an accepted recruit. This throws open the door and offer inducements for everybody to go to work recruiting. In addition to the Gov- ernment premiums, remember that the State pays apremium of $10 for every accepted recruit,making the premiums,$35 for veterans and $25 for raw recruits. It is a good op- portunity for the veterans now at home on furlough to fill up their regiments. -..<.>. ,W‘Rev. J. J. Woolley’s sermon to the soldiers, in the Center Church, last Sabbath afternoon, Was full of soul and feeling, and went home to the hearts of the hardy veter- ans.

The loss is at least half a million do lots. It is insur- ed for $750,000, in the New York and New England oflces. Several lives were lost b the falling of the roof of one of the bull - ings. Another account says the loss will foot up to one million of dollars. 9 Physical Culture. The “ Norman Insmu'rs: son :Pnrsrcn. Inventors," incorporated in 1800, and un- der the management of Dr. Dio anrs, will open its sixth session on the second day of January. The demand for teachers of the new gymnastics has become such that the last class of graduates, consisting of fifty ladies and gentlemen, were at once engaged, and hundreds more migh find profitable em- ployment. Well-known medical men assist in preparing the pupils to act as guides in Physical Culture. In the department of Gymnastics, Dr. Lewis personally trains every candidate for the new profession. If any reader would know more of this pioneer institution in a new and noble profession, let him or her send for a full circular to Dr. Dio Lewis, Boston. To Dr. Dio Lewis, more than to any other man, is the country indebted for the present deep, practical interest in physical culture. He has done a noble work—Mass. Teacher.

This venerable physician, who has had a large practice and a high reputation in Fairfield county for more than fifty ‘ years, and who represented the Twelfth District in the Senate of Connecticut, in the years 1845 and 1846, died at his home in Greenwich on the 28th of Jan— uary. His funeral was attended on the first of February, by a large and most reapectable congregation, notwithstand- ing the easterly storm prevailing. Sev— eral physicians of the county were pres— ent to testify their respect for their brother, among whom we noticed the venerable Dr. Noyes, of New Canaan, who traveled so far through rain and mud to do honor to his classmate. The sermon was preached by Rev. S. B. S. Bissell, of Norwalk. Darius Mead was born in Greenwich, July 9, 1787. He was fitted for college by Rev. Isaac Lewis, D. D., his pastor, whom he always greatly revered. He entered Yale in 1803,, and was graduat- ed in 1807; studied medicine in Phila- delphia, and received his diploma in 1809, in which year he was married to Lydia K., daughter of Elisha Belcher, M. D., of Round Hill, in Greenwich. She died sixteen years before him—J an. 15, 1848. In 1810 be commenced the practice of his honorable profession in his native town, where he has since dwelt and died, ” among his owu people.” . Dr. Mead was a man of sound, dis- criminating, practical judgment, appreci- ating highly the true and genuine, but rejecting with contempt all sham, all insincerity, equivocation, ostentation. He possessed a sensitive nature and aquick and accurate taste- In his home be was systematic and energetic in discipline, but affectionate, sympathizing and self- sacrificing for his family, making his house the center of attraction and hospi- tality. In social and public life be was a man of unbending integrity and up- rightness, ever ready to do what he could for the public welfare, always decided in his convictions, and earnest in the Cause of good order and good morals. He was a physician of the old school, of large practice, industrious, attentive, faithful, sympathizing with his patients, considerate of the poor, giving them free- ly no small portion of his time, and deal- ing out medicines to them with a liberal hand. As a citizen, he was loyal and patriotic, taking great interest in the ef- forts Of the government to vindicate the majesty of the Constitution and Union against unrigbteous rebellion, solicitons for the honor of his country, and for her emancipation from the blighting curse of slavery, and for the extension and per petuation of liberty. Dr. Mead united with the 2d Congre— gational Church, in Greenwich, in 1819. As a Christian, he was a diligent reader of the Bible, sacredly observing the Sab- bath and family and public worship, strict in the religious training of‘ his children it! the principles and doctrines of God’s Word, as set forth in the Shorter Cate— chism—with what success may be seen in the fact that all are prosperous, and re.- spected as members of society and of the Household of Faith. It was related of him at his funeral, by his venerable pas- tor, Dr. Liusley, that he was most punc- tual in his attendance on the sanctuary, rising early and riding late, often, on the Sabbath, that he might redeem for him- self the holy hours of public prayer and praise. He was zealous for the honor of God, the peace and prosperity of the Church, the maintenance of her ministry and ordinances, and the order and beauty of her house, and for the extension of the Kingdom of Christ.

Some excitement was- caused on Fri- 1 day afternoon bv a dispatch that the Rebels had attacked Newbern, N. 0., got pomession of the railroad to Moor- head City, and had of course placed the Union troops in both places in a preca- rious po~ition. NO particulars were given. An hour or two afterward, Gen. Butler telegraphed to the War Department that all was right, the enemy had retired on Kingston, and that N cwbern was relieved —aud so were the public. By the Flambean of the blockading squadron, from Charleston Feb. 1, we learn that the slow bombardment goes on, but Charleston does not show many marks of injury. The Rebels have moun- ted four or five guns in the ruins of Fort Sumter. the effort to raise the Weehaw- ken will probably proves failure. Noth- ing is being done by the iron clads save blockade picket duty . Gen. Kelley telegraphed'that he has just received (Feb. 5.) a dispatch from Col. Mulligan, who says that after six hours fighting he has driven the Rebels under Early out of Moorfield, and his (Mulligen’s) cavalry were pursuing and had hotly engaged the Rebel cavaly un- der Rosser at the date of the dispatch (which date is omitted, but was probably the 4th.) - Particulars of the attack of the rebels upon Newbern, N. 0., on the 2d instant, show that it was quite as serious as was represented by the first dispathes, al- though the ultimate result was satisfacto- ry to the Union arms, and saved New- born from being occu ied by the enemy. It appears that ,the ebels advanced on the lat instant upon our outposts at Bachelors Creek, eight miles from New- bern, and captured them after a severe fight. A force of our cavalry was also repulsed in sight of Fort Totten. The enemy pressed closely upon our lin.s, and actually came within bailing distance of the city. Recent dispatches received by Gen. Butler, nowever informed us that the enemy was driven back to Kingston by Gen. Palmer, on the 2d inst, and that Newborn was relieved. On that evening the Rebels had possession of Newport, and cut ofi‘ the connection be- tween Newbero and Beaufort. By last accounts from Chattanooga we learn that Gen. Johnston, with nearly his whole force, had fallen back as far as Rome, Ga, leaving only a portion of his "mm at Dalton. It was thought that Johnston either retired to that point to obtain supplies, or to prevent desertions, as betwaen eight and nine thousand Reb- els had come into the Union lines since the battle of Missionary Ridge. No anx- iety for the safety of our troops at Knox. ville is entertained at Chattanooga. The line of couriers between the two points is uninterrupted. —-——o-<.>- fi-We understand that Major R. W. Norton, of the 2d Company Governor’s Foot Guards, has received his discharge from Gov. Buckingham. In 1841, Major Norton, then Captain of the “Down Town Militia,” which Office he held for some five or six vears, with some six or eight mem- bers of that Company, on ascertaining that the Guards, their numbering not more than ten or twelve members, wished to adopt the old style of uniform, viz: short breeches, red coats and powdered hair, united with them and made choice, for Major, of Benjamin Prescott, ex Cap- tain of the New Haven Grays, and Cap- tain R. W. Norton for Orderly Sergeant. At the expiration of two years, he was elected 2d Lieutenant, which he also held for two years, when he was elected Major holding the ofiice for some five years.— He then removed to Norwalk, Conn. and was connected with the State Militia about six years, Returning to New Haven, the Guards again honored him _ by appointing him Major, which office he has held until discharged by his Ex- cellency Major Norton retires from his old and venerable organization with the good will and wishes of every member of the Com- pany; and may his future, as his past life has been, be as cheerful and happy as those years in which he has been connect- ed with this Company.—N.
