VICTORY AND UNION ! !
All Hail, the NATION Lrvns! Never before
in the history of Republican government did
the sun go dowu on so grand and mighty a
triumph ! a victory of Right over Wrong, of
justice and civilization and Liberty over prej.
udice, wicked-passions and treason. Ev???"

the dignity and power of our nationality.
Grand, n able and historic Massachusetts
"veep: her God inspired hills with seventy
thousand majority for the Union! Baltimore
rising from her holy baptism, of Massa chu-
sett's‘ blood rolls back her redeemed and
echoing anthem of ten thousand more as a
vindication and joyful earnest of what 'her
I broken shackles and new-born life has achiev
ed. 'But why delay the figures. Scan the
mighty columns of majorities and still migh-

wonderful of all political achievements.

Norwalk.
Old- Norwalk,-—God bless hen—always
strong on the right side, gave a Union maj or-
' ity of 208, a gain of 43 over the Congres-
. sional'elecuon of 1863, and is the “ Banner
Town” of Fairfield, Litchfield, New Haven,
Hartford, and Middlesex Counties. The
election passed off very quietly in both Dis-
tricts, and notwithstanding the drizzly dis-
agreeable weather, more than two-thirds oi
the .whole vote, which was larger than ever
cast before, was polled before 12 o’clock.—
" Some of the opposition were so confident Of
Little Mac’s invincibility, that they were
willing to , bet that even Norwalk would
give him a majority, but during Tuesday
evening they were “ very tired” and retired
. forest very early, and some of them now
mourn for departed $50 greenbacks, $12
boots, silk hats, &c., lost by the foolish prac-
tice of betting on elections.

- The old “ Democratic Stronghold” gives a
Union majority of 174. Good for old Fair—

New Canaan
Gives a majority of 93 for the Union cause,
which is a gain of 11 over last Spring, and 71
over the Congressional election. The union
men of this town have learned how to work,
and every election increase their former ma.
jorlties. Good for New Canaan, it is getting
to be a very desirable town to live in.
By the way, Capt. P—y, how about the
“ million majority” for the “ little Hac"-erel?
- Did you see anything of it, around your way?
Stamford
is “coming back to first principles,” and
we hope will soon take. her old place by the
side of Norwalk She gives a majority of
96. All hail, Stain ford.
Westpln‘l.
The button maker promised a majority of
200 for the young Napoleon, but the union
men Would not agree to that and cut the
democratic majority down to 129. Union
men of Westport, take courage, and work
hard to redeem the bad name your town now
bears.
Wilton
Gives a majority of , 82,a gain over'last spring.
Keep on improving.
Darien
Gives a majority of 27—a falling off from
last Spring, but still a good vote for this old
democratic town. Do better next time, boys.

what lengthy communication (intended for
_ last week but received too late) in reply to
S. B. S. B. on “Clerical Loyalty,” and covl;
ering substantially the same ground as “ C. ‘
S.” On reflection, we have concluded to
. decline publishing it, feeling that a newspa-
percontroversy Of this kind cando no possible
good and might do injury. If We publish
this, there would be several answers to it,
and the discussion would be very prolonged.
It is a Society affair and perhaps ought not
be discussed in public journals. The discus-
sion has commenced, [it is true, but we trust
- it will soon be closed.

Correspondence of the Gazette.
Wasporrr, Nov. 10, 1864.
Mussns. EDITORS :--The election passed
off very quietly here with the exception of a
few free fights in the evening among the
copperheads; but they were looked on as
“ Peace men,” and no one interfered.
In the early part of the evening, we lit up
the old Recha bite Hall to congratulate each
other on our success and hear the news from
the adjoining towns, counties, and states.—
Thc young lady who tends the Telegraph
office kindly volunteered to stay through the
night, and report the news as it came along
the wires. {A small purse was made upin her
behalf.
The copperheads allowed they were good
for two hundred majority in our town for
“ Little Mac,” but instead of that they fell
short on last State election, thirty-five votes-
The polls were closed at the usual hour, and
not a cheer went up for “ Mac Clellau." At
the Hotel, in the eVening, one of the party
was asked to sing a song to " cheer the bro-
ken hearted,” but he declined, not knowing
what would be appropriate. The gentlemen
suggested some dirge, as, for instance, “Hark!
from the tomb a mournful sound.”
The hearts of the Union men beat with
hope and joy, as during each successive
hour, the news came pouring in; and different
towns, counties and states wheeled into line.
Last night,learning that Lincoln dc Johnson
had got all the States but three we thought,
probably they were elected, and judged best
to order a salute of 100 guns tO-day, in honor
of the occasion; but during the night some
rebel villain, or scoundrel, spiked our gun
which We had just bought for the occasion
and we expected we should be disappointed
or else have to trespass upon the liberality of
our Norwalk friends for the loan of theirs,
but we went to work and had another hole
drilled; offered a hundred dollars reward for
the conviction of the villain ; drew our gun
out in front of the residence of one of
their number, and gave them the benefit
of the act. This dastardly deed is the only
thing they have laughed at since election;
and the barb'ers had thought of charging
them double price for shaving, on account of
their long faces, but since they have made.
so gallant a charge, their faces have contrac.
ted a little, and they have finally concluded
to keep to the old price, out of pity for the
poor fellows;
A victory is won, let us take courage and
move on. ' UNION.

Look out for Counterfeits!
New counterfeit $10 bills on the Fairfield
Co. Bank, of this place, are in circulation.—
Two dashing young ladies were arrested in
Hartford last Week for passing some of these
bills. They plead guilty, and were bound
over for trial in $500 bonds each. Two men
have also been arrested in the same city”, for
passing the same conterfeits, one of whom
gave bonds, and the other went to jail. Two
young girls from New Haven, and one man,
have been arrested in Waterbury, and arrests
have been made in New Haven and New
London for-passing the same bills. ‘
The bills are said to be very neatly execu-
ted, but printed on very thin paper. At the
bottom of the bill the names of the engravers'
are in these words: “Danforth, Spencer and
Holly, New Yok,” the letter “r” being left
out of the word York. By observing ‘this
“Dutch spelling” the bad bills may be easily
discovered. , .-

Q‘Lieut. Hewison. of Bridgeport, former-
ly of the 5th Conn., was accidentally killed
in New Haven on Saturday week, by a six
pound Weight falling from a McClellan ban-
ner and striking him on the head. He lived
but a few hours. His funeral was attended
in Bridgeport on Thursday last. Lt. Hewi-
son was formerly color sergeant of the 5th
Conn.,.and was wounded in the battle of Ce-
dar Mountain, at the time his companion,—'
color sergeant Jones, of Willem—was killed,
He was promoted for gallantry to a First
Lieutenancy, and was much respected by the
officers and men of the regiment. He had
been at home but a few days, and it seems
very singular that after having gone safely
through so many perils in the service", that:
he should have met his death at home in
such a strange manner.

arr We give herewith, “ S. B. S. B's." r'e-"
joinder to “C. S’s." communication, published
in Our last. If the discussion is to continue,
we apprehend it will itself furnish all needed
evidence that such matters are better kept
out of the secular press. One earnest fervent
prayer for our noble President and the sub-
limer heroes in the field, would do more to
allay any unjust prejudices, than columns of
contention.
“ Clerical Loyalty."
If I should submit in silence to the sen-
tence pronounced against me by the self-com
stituted censor, C. S., inthe Gazette of Nov-
8th (viz., that my communication in the Ga-
zette of Nov. lst, contained a “ recital uncall-
ed for,” and an “ insinuation unjust and un-
worthy”), I might gain credit for a “meek-
ness of wisdom” to which, perhaps, I am not
entitled; or. I might be charged with a sense
of the justice of the reproof, of which I am
not conscious; or, my forbearance might be
construed as the expression of a silent con-
tempt, which I do not feel. I wrote not of
self. ' .
C. S. characterizes my communication a
an “ apology for a delinquency”—which is
charged by him, but to which the article con.
damned by him makes no allusion: in which
there is not a word which ju stifies his“ insin-
uation.” It is therefore “ uncalled for,” as it
is also “ unjust and unworthy or‘ your corres-
pondent.” His imputation of a motive, that
did not animate, is gratuitous and groundless-
What was the primary object and, the pur-
port of the communication which .0. S. as-
sails? Was it to record a “history of Dr.Plu-
mer’s early antecedents,” as if any had “ques-
tioned the Dr's. humanity, or benevolence,
or christian-character f”. Not at all. “This
recita ,” censured as “uncalled for," was,
clearly, only a secondary consideration... The.
mam design was—not to volunteer a needless
“ certificate from his friends,” or “ testimony‘
to a faithful ministry thirty years ago,” but
it was—to introduce Dr. Plumer’s own vin-
dication of his loyalty by his “ Card issued
some two and a half years since”—not against
“aprejudice” bum—against “ questions” and,
“ doubts,” entertained by some, inthis com—
his prayers.
C. S. pronounces “ the republication of
this Card" needless; but himself has furnished
proofto the contrary in every line ,of his ar-
ticle, by his own questioning and doubting of
Dr. Plumer’s loyalty. _ 4
C. S. attempts to emit discredit on this Card.
Why? was it not full, frank and explicit ?—
_Let us read again its conclusion.- ’ ‘
mer says, “ I regard it as my solemn duty, and
my high priofleye,_to sustain this Government:
and against any and every attempt to destroy ;
it,Ie‘ntend to sustain a in word and deed, by ’
precept and example, with My prayers, with the
little ' worldly goods I possess, and, if call-
ed thereto, with my life. 1 ”meld, not lace un-
der it ifI could not heartily do these things.”
that fault does C. S. find in this ‘. Gard-P
Why, he says it was “issued for reasons best
known tohimseli”-Of course ; to whom else
should they be better known—) “some two
and a half years since.” Now it . may be
necessary or expedient for some men to “de-
fine” their “present position”: day by day,
when they ‘change their base? between days
and in different companies; but some other
men do maintain their position the same,
even “two years and a half." '
What is the sum of C. S’s. assault on Dr.
Plumer’s “ position i" It is, simply this :
Dr.Plumer does not pray after a specific
idea, or form, which'C. S.,' in the sequel, pro-
ceeds to prescribe. '
Diocese of Connecticut has appointeda very '
, excellent and patriOtic form ofCommon Pray- ‘
er tobe used by all his Clergy; but I am'
not aware that any such authority,of Bishop
or layman, is recognized in Congregational
Churches.
But C. S. has “listened for weeks” and
says “ With a single exception, I have heard
no petition that would not have been appro-
priate, and perfectly acceptable to a congre-
tion in Richmond.” Has he not prayed for
the President and his Cabinet—for the Coun-
try—for the Government, which in his card
he says he “intends to sustain? ” Does he
mean the President, Cabinet, and Govern-
ment recognized, “in Richmond 1’” .-C. S.
himself admits“ a single exception.” Was
that a loyal petition, or prayer ? ThefJudge
in a criminal trial, even of an accused mur-
derer, ever Charges ajury to give him the
benefit ofa doubt. Why did not C. S., in the
charity that “t-hinkethino evil,” give the sus.
pected loyalty of a venerable minister of
Jesus Christ, (against whom only errors Of
emission are charged—no sin ochmmission)
the full benefit of that “single eXception ?” _.
A word in conclusion. in respect to my
secondary object in an allusion to a fact,—4
not “history of Dr. Plumer’s early antecec
. dents”—knov’vn to me personally. The case
stands thus: ..
By Iegitimate,ofilcial invitation,a venerable
Divine comes to minister, for a‘ season, to a
Christian congregation. He is well and fa-
vorably known elsewhere, but in that! com-
munity he is a comparative stranger. One
who has known him for thirty . years, and
who was born in that community and is a
member of that church, ventures,iu christian
and ministerial courtesy, to utter a kind
word of introduction,to vindicate him against
aceusations,by means of-his own Card, and to
.propitiate favor for his ministry in order to
its greater usefulness. Immediately his vol-
unteering is stigmatized as “uncalled for,”
and his attempt as containing an insinua-
tion “unjust and unworthy.” Nay more,
the opportunity is promptly seized for a pub-
lic assault. What can be the good resulting?
What the evil possible ? .~
Perhaps C. S, may know of other instan-
ces of “ certificate of friends” and tea-
timony to a faithful ministry," contain-
ing gross “ insinuations” against others
that were “ uncalled fer, unjust and un-
worthy,” which he may not have been
so prompt to rebuke. _ .. ..S. B. S. B.‘

Death of Hon. J. P. Elton.
Died, in Waterbury, November 10th, of
t phoid fever, alter a brief illness, the Hon.
on P. ELTON, aged fifty-five years, a
prominent citizen of Waterbury, and one of
the Union Presidential Electors of this
in this State, and a son of Dr. Samuel Elton,
who was, for more than sixty years, a lead-
ing hysician in that part of the State.—
Mr. lton came to Waterbury when quite
young, and there engaged in the manufac-
turing business. By industry and energy,
he early acquired a handsome property,
which was subsequently increased by inher-
itance from his father. He was a man of
great kindness of heart and of most liberal
disposition; and in all matters of public in-
terest and private benevolence, he has been
a most generous contributor, not only to
objects in' his own immediate neighborhood,
.but to those in other portions of the State
and country. His loss will be felt and la-
mented, nOt only in the place of his resi-
dence, but throughout the State, and wher-
ever he is known.—N. H. Courier.

Colonel had a final interview with Mr. Ould,
the rebel commissioner for exchange, at 10
o’clock last evening, at which arrangements
were completed for an exchange often thou-
sand prisoners, which will at once be pro-
ceeded with. As I write, Col Mu! ford is
sailing out of the harbor with the first in-
stallment, bound for Savannah, where he
will surrender to the rebels the; thirty-five
hundred now on board ship, and receive in
return ten thousand Union prisoners from
the rebels. At the same time the rebels
will designate a point on the Mississippi riv-
or where they will receive ’another hit of
their men to balance the account." -

Q‘The Bridgeport Standard says that
they are requested by the Provost Marshal
of this District to announce that it is ordered
by the Secretary of War, that all officers and
enlisted men absent from their command,
return to the same immediately, and all fur-
loughs and leaves of absence are revoked,
except as to commissioned officers absent on
sick leave, in orders, or by virtue of certificate
of disability, duly filed as required by the
regulations of the War Department.
Men who are absent from General Hos-
pitals will return at once to the Hospitals
from which they are furloughed, and all
others to their respective posts, companies

' The Capture of the Florida.
BosTON, Nov. 8.—The Kearsarge which
arrived late last night, has as passenger W.
W. Williams, Assistant-Paymaster of the
Wachusett, bearer of the dispatches of the
circumstances attending the capture of the
Florida in the port oi Bahia. She also brings
us prisoners of war the ChicfEngineer and
Boatswaiu of the Alabama, and the surgeon
and sixteen men of the Florida. The Kear-
sarge left St. Thomas on the evening of the
3lst ult. The Wachusett was in port wait-
ing for coal. The Florida was outside. The
ship James Cheston, one hundred and thity-
three days from Rangoon, put into port with
distress with her crew down with the scur-
y. She was supplied with nineteen men
rem the Kearsar‘ e and would sail in a day
or two for New ork.
The barque Mondamou, from Rio, was
captured by the Florida 011' Peruambuco,
about Sept. 28th and burned. This was the
only American vessel captured by the Flori-
da since her departure from Tenerifi‘e.
The following is a brief account of the
ca ture of the pirate ;
l‘he Florida arrived at Bahia bay, off San
SalvadOr, on the night of the 7th nit. Captain
Collins, having held a consultation with his
officers, determined to sink the Florida in
port. Accordingly, at about 3 o’clock, the
cables were shipped and the Wachusett
steered for the Florida, hitting heron the
quarter without doing great injury. Capt.
Collins now ca!led out to those on board the
pirate to surrender or he would sink her.
This demand was replied to by the First
Licntcun'nt that “ under the circumstances be
surrendered." A .hawser \yas' now made
fast, a chain slipped and the 'Florida towed
to sea.
In the melee several pistol shots were fired
and,acoidentully, two guns from the Wachu-
sctt went off. Capt. Morris and half of the
crew were ash ore on liberty. No
lives were lost. '
he Florida was taken completely by sur-
prise, severity of her men, it was known, be-
ing on shore, and the“ Others just returned
from liberty, were hall asleep and half in-
toxicated. The blow carried away the miz—
zen mast, and the main yard, winch fell on
the awning, preventing- any one from get-
ting up from below. $0 pnconscrous was

Wachusctt that he sang out "You Will run

cheapest known in this country. Materials
which are liable to be confounded with
this have long been in use for covering

this recent discovery has any kind of Ce-
ment Roofing been used for our best resi-

are such as to render it perfectly water-

very great saving .of at least 25 per cent
over any other roofing in use.

Facts for the People.
It a well established» fact that no prepara-
tion has ever been placed before the public,
that, as a remedial agent for the sale and
speedy cure of Coughs, Colds, Croup, Influ. '
euza, Hoarcncss, Tickling in the Throat,
Soreness of the Chest and Lungs, and the re-
lief of Consumptive Coughs, is equal to Coc‘s
Cough. Balsam. Although not known in the
Western States until the fall of 1863, over
300,000 bottles of it were sold and usedby the
people; its immense popularity beiug‘ihe re-
sult of its undoubted merit. The proprietors,
Messrs. C. G. CLARK £500., of .New Haven,
Ct, who are among the most reliable of the
Eastern Drug Houses, have offered to any
man who would produce an article that
would cure any Lung and Throat affections
as quick as Coe‘s Cough Balsam, a reward of
$100, and are without any taker, although
the offer has been made public over two
years. The bottle compares favorably in size
with any of the 65 cent preparations, and its
strength is second to none, making it not only
the best, but the cheapest remedy in the
world. We have the united testimony of
such houses as Lord & Smith; Fuller, Finch
do Fuller; Burnham & Van Schaack; J. H;
Reed & 00., and H. Scoviii, all heavy drug
gists in the city of Chicago, together with the
assurance of wholesale and retail druggists in
all points of the Northwest, that they are
selling more of this preparation, and that it
gives greater satisfaction than any other
Cough Balsam now extant. No family
should be without it; it is within the reach
of all, the price being only 40 cents. In time
of health, prepare for disease.
