[We reprint from our last issue the obser- vations preliminary to the following article ] We propose, in our next issue, to commence the publication ofa short series of articles, under the above title. The recent action of‘ the General As- sembly, referring to the people the question of a further extension of the sum-age, renders it eminent- ly proper that there should ‘be a full and fair consider- ation of the subject, preliminary to the ballot. And fortunately, the subject is presented to us disembar- assed ofall extraneous issues. We have no occa- sion to trouble ourselves about what the Federal Government will do, or ought to do. We are not called upon to vote on matters affecting other and distant communities. The question relates to Con- nectfcut and only to Connecticut. The people of this State, in their primary capacity, as the source of all rightful politial pOWCr within its limits, will make their choice between limited and universal aufi'rage. It is every grave question. It goes down to the foundations of the social structure and accor- ding to its decision will our love and respect for genuine Democracy be judged. It will be npcessary, in the outset of‘ such a dis- cussion, to revert, to some extent, to the elements- ry principles, which underlie our frame of govern- ment. We ask the attention and patience of our readers in this portion of our argument, believing that its presentation is necessary to an intelligent Judgment Ofthe conclusion to which We shall arrive. I. The radical difference between the an- cient and modern forms of civilization con- sists in the recognition, by the latter, of cer- tain rights appertaining to each and every man, for the sole reason that he is a man .— The Greek or the Roman knew nothing of these; his fundamental law was force; the strongest was always the most righteous. The Englishman or the American, on the other hand, professes to determine the rela- tions of men to each other in the social state. according to certain laws of moral rectitude, whose origin is clearly traceable to the Di- vine command, “ Thou shalt love thy neigh- bor as thyself.” In the American theory of society, person- al liberty, in other words, individual 'free-, dom, occupies the foremost position among these fundamental rights. While I may for- forfeit this liberty by crime, no man, or au- thority, so long as I am innocent, may justly deprive me of it, and all limitations upon it are only so far lawful as they are made with my consent, express, or fairly implied. It fellows that in the association of individuals. which is called the State, the men who exer- cise the funCtious of GOvernment, which is a limitation of individual freedom, derive all their just powers, from the consentof the governed. All men, possessing, by virtue of their manhood, equal rights to the exercise of political functions, a government based upon natural right, would necessarily be a pure Democracy; that is, so much of Law, as should be needful for the well-being of the community, wouldhe enacted by the unani- mous consent of all the individuals compo- sing that community. But here, from the imperfection of human nature, and human capacity, -two limitations necessarily arise, viz: 1. All the individuals of aState will be unabfcto agree in the enactment of laws.— But as law is necessary, and the opinion of either the greater or lesser number must pre- vail in Its creation, the nearest approximation to natural right will be, to devolve the law- making power for the Whole, upon the ma- jority of the whole. The right of the ma— jority, therefore, is based upon the two-fold foundation of the natural . rights and the natural necessities of man. 2. Another limitation springing from the physical incapacities of the race, will be found in the impossibility, in acountry of any considerable territorial extent, of gath- ering together the whole people ina single assembly. But, as we have seen that the essence of rightful government consists in the consent of the governed fairly ex— pressed through tlie majority, and as this consent may as readily be indicated through the agency of others as by personal declara- tion, the Representative system is naturally evolved by this latter limitation, and equally with a pure democracy, finds its ultimate ba sis in natural right, and when exercised strictly upon that basis, may with sufficient propriety, be designated a Democracy. The foregoing limitations, it will be seen, are necessary, arising from the natural or physical constitution of man. They are the only limitations known to. the, Declaration of Independence, which should ever bere- vered as the American Magus Charts. The disqualificatious of sex and immaturity are only apparent, not real. The woman and he child vote already in the husband and the father. The normal Condition of the adult man and woman is marriage; in marriage, they are one, and the ballot which the larger and more muscular hand casts, is the act of this divinely-ordained unity. That there is a period of immaturity, when the child must be represented by the father, all agree; socie- ty only determines when that period shall cease. ’ But, to return. We have alluded to the Declaration of Independence, not by way of authority, but because its political doctrines underlie the whole growth and development of American Society. They are the key- note of American progress. So long as we move in the direction which they indicate, we shall grow better, wiser, purer ; shall ap~ prdximate more nearly to, the pattern of a perfect State. And this, not because thee Declaration ~rccites these maxims, but be- cause they are true. They are, in no respect, original in that instrument; unconsciously, probably, to the statesman _wlio penned the words, he was only incorporating, for the first time, in the charter of a nation. those great truths, whose seminal principles were exhibited, centuries ago, in the divine teach. ings of tee Author of Christianity. There were indeed, at first, practices “in- tagouistic to the axioms of the Declaration. The old feudal law of primogeniture, limit- ing the capacity Qf inheritance to the eldest son and laying the sure foundation of Aris- tocracy, prevailed in many of the States.— The restriction of the suffrage to the holders of land, another remnant of aristocratic iu- stitutions, was well—nigh universal. Chattel slavery, a system inveterateiy hostile to the principles of the Declaration. prevailed in every State of the Union. But circumstan- ces had planted those principles too deeply in the instincts of the American people to allow them to be overwhelmed by these an- tagonisms. The entire life of the Colonies, prior to the Revolution, was a training for the establishment of a nation, whose gov— ernment should rest upon the political equali— ty of individuals, and the consent of the governed. Necessity compelled the settlers of our Atlantic coasts to leave behind them the old feeling of dependence on kings, lords, and gentlemen. There Were savage tribes to conquer, wild beasts to extirpate, unbroken forests to clear away, and-a primi~ tive soil to break up and cultivate. Agricul~ lure, commerce, manufactures, all had to be, as it were, created. And for this the colo- nists were to depend only upon God and themselves. Here, in a new world, hem— med iu between the ocean and the wilderness, they were left to grow up to the stature of' individual manhood. For a hundred and fifty years God trained them thus, and the l; result was a people, different from any the world had ever known before. Thus, the first true Democracy of history ‘ was born in the shadowy forests, and grew strong in the contests of individual man with primitive nature. It uttered itself in language that has shaken the world, in the Declaration of Independence. From that moment, its progress and development have been sure. Primogeniture fell before if. Property restrictions upon suffrage survived a little longer, only to perish in their turn. Slavery closed in a death-grapple with it, and perished in blood and fire. One barrier to its final triumph remains, viz : the denial of rights, by reason of diversity of race, and upon this we propose to speak in our nut article.

She arose about 4 o’clock, opened all the doors and windows in the house, then went out in the yard and it is thought deliberate- 1y let herself down into the well, as there were no bruises on her person except one small cut on the forehead. She has been subject to temporary fits of derangement ~of mind, since the loss of a nephew, who died from wounds received in the battle of Get- tysburg. This nephew and sister" had been brought up by her, their own parents dying when they were quite young. She had made arrangements to visit New York with her ueice on that day, and her clothes Were packed over night, they expecting to leave on the steamboat in the morning. She was missed, early in the morning and on search being instituted, her body was found in the well at about 5 o’clock. Her remains were taken to New York for interment On Satur- day morning. m Q‘.-.

Shall we have one in Norwalk ? ‘If so we must be up and doing. Our neighboring towns, Dau- bury, Stamford and Bridgepnrt are already busily engaged in making extensive arran- gements for. the proper observance of the day. Norwalk has more material fora good celebration than any place between New York and New Haven, and if our people take hold of the matter with proper spirit, We can get up a celebration to be proud of. The expenses can be paid by the town, or met by subscriptions from the whole people, and who. is not willing to contribute some- thing for a grand celebration of the ever glorious Fourth and the return of Peace. Oh yes, let us celebrate, by all means. Q» SUDDEN DEATE—A man named David Mansfield, a batter from Danbury was found dead in the Lumber yard of Tolles dc Ely, South Norwalk, on Wednesday morning last.

There is little transpiring at the National Capital that the great Metropolitan press and the electic wires do not spread over the continent, the instant of development. At the War Department all is activity in . mustering out the war-worn veterans who have withstood the shock of battle till now rosy-lippcd Peace dawns upon our heroic land. The- tramp of soldiers is still heard here, but how changed from a few brief months agone. Then they marched to the front, with regretful. thoughts and pnxious fears for the dear ones left behind. Now their martial tmad law be mustered (mt—the Pug/master in their eye, and norm and wife and children and parents and loved ones in their hearts. And how will anxious hearts andtearful eyes all over New England hills, rejoice in the long-looked for good time now come-as the husband, the father, the son safely returns to their peaceful homes laden with immortal honors. Surely there is but one national debt we cannot pay and that is to these brave men whose breasts have stood a wallof resistless fire to stop the rolling waves of treason. Let not the peoples grati- tude find its only expression in words. These men as they returdneed work-«employment. . Their life in the field has greatly interrupted their opportunities and facilities for falling into remunerative occupation.

Farvbetter this than noisy. re- ceptious or festival recognitions, all Well and proper in their way. The Conspiracy trial drags its weary length along. The court and witnesses and hear- ers awelter andsweat through long tedious details of testimony, while ethe public seem impatient for “such time as the hang- ing shall come on.” Perhaps one Of the most interesting bits of accidental testimo- ny was that exposing Ben. Wood, a member of Congress and Editor of the rebel new in 'his disbursing connections with the infernal horde of Canada Robbers, Peisoners, and burners of innocent women and children. The question of State Reconstruction, now the subject Of frequent Cabinet discussions and of most profound popular anxieties- engrosses and eclipses all other political questions and issues. The lurid clouds of war have indeed passed from our national horizon, but many grave questions thicken upon our political future and give serious and well grounded apprehension to the wi- sest and best of 0m public men. But God has been with us in the past and We can safe- ly trust Him in the future. The nation must avow Justice and Liberty and vindicate the sublime utterances of our immortal dec- laration if we would steer clear of rocks and quicksands while sailing the ship of state through the untried seas of the future. B. <0».————-._ _ WWC are pleased to learn that Hon. A. B. Mygatt, of New Milford, has received the appointment of Examiner of National Banks for the States of Connecticut and Rhode Island. Mr. Mygatt is well known through- out this State, has served in both branches of the Legislature, and for three years was a Bank Commissioner. His experience in the letter office, has peculiarly fitted him for his present position, and we have no doubt his appointment will giv very general sat- isfaction. , ' «‘0». The Festivals. The Festivals held last week, were all very ” successful. The 2d M. E. Society held theirs on Monday and Tuesday evenings at Nor- walk Hall, which was crowded‘on each eve- ning. The exercises by the children, inter- spersed With singing by ladies and gentlemen, were very interesting, and gave mm pleas-' are to the audiences. The Strawberries and cream and other Refreshments went off “like hot cakes," and the pecuniary success must have been very gratifying. The Congregational Society of South Nor- walk held their Festival at Ely’s Hall, on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. We re— gret that circumstances prevented our being present. . _ The Festival and Promenade Concert by the Norwalk Guards, on Wednesday eve- ning. at Lockwood‘s Hall, was one of the finest entertainments ever given in Norwalk. The beautiful Hall was decorated with flow- ers, fiags,‘military emblems, &c., the tables were covered with boquets' and choice re- freshments, and the music by Mouck’s Band, all that could be desired: The Guards were honored by the presence of the Burnside Guards of South Norwalk, which company marched up with martial music. The attend- ance during the evening was very large, and all seemed delighted with the entertainment - The expenses were quite large, nevertheless the “material aid” realized Will 'be very pleasing to the company. We are requested by the Committee to return thanks to the ladies who donated flowers and refreshments, and especially to those Who so kindly gave their personal as- sistance and attention at the Hall. , [8‘ The Festival Of the Burnside Guards came off at Ely’s Hall, South Norwalk, on Thursday and Friday evenings. The Hall was decorated with fiagsand flowers, and re- freshments were inabuudance. The Ponsell Brothers, of Westport, furnished Brass and String music. On Friday evening, the Nor- walk Guards marched down, headed by their drum corps. An emerald ring, valued at $75, set with eight small diamOuds, was dis- posed of by chances; the ring was, drawn by Mr. E. Grumman, and a large and beautiful cake by Mr. G. E. Miller.

Located near the bfindary line of New York, and within .a short distance of Massa- chusetts, also commanding a delightful view of Long Island—the streets shaded with trees of many years growth—it is well worth a visit from those desirous of seeing a repre~ seutative town of rural Connecticut. It is a noteworthy fact that at the recent State elec- tion, Ridgefield gave 108 majority for Gov- ernor Buckingham. LEXINGTON.

It is estimated that over forty millions have been paid in profits by the people of this country alone on this patent, and that hue-fourth of this large sum was received by Charles Goodyear and his legal representa- tives in the course of business and in tariffs. The valuable patent of Nelson Giodyear on Hard Rubber, which has been extended re- cently by the Commissioner of Patents, still .remains, we believe, in the Goodyear family, as the tariffs are paid to the heirs of Charles.
