-. . MAKE FARM LIFE ATTRACTIVE—1. By
, less hard work. Farmers often undertake
? more than they can do well, and consequent-
v'wly work too early and too late.
' 2.‘ Bymore system. The farmers should
have a time to begin and stop labor. They
should put more mind and machinery into
their work. They should theorize as well as
~ practice, and let both go together. Farming
.is healthy, moral and respectable ; and. in
the long run, may be made profitable. The
farmer should keep good stock and out of

 

. and end life, and hence so many in the cities
, and profesional life covet a rural home.

3.. By taking care of health. Farmers
have healthy variety of exercise, but too
often neglect cleanliness, omit bathing, eat

, irregularly and hurriedly, sleep in ill-venti-
. lated apartments, and expose themselves'to
cold. Nine tenths of the human diseases
arise from cold and intemperance. Frequent
bathing is profitable, so is fresh air, delibera-
., tion at the dinner table, and rest after a
.meal. . '
, 4. By adorning the home. Nothing is
lost bya pleasant home. ‘Books, papers,
pictures, musm and reading should all be
, brought to bear upon the indoor family 3 en-
: tertainments, and neatness and comfort,i or-
; der, slirubbery, flowers and fruits should har-
monize all without. Home should be a
sanctuary, so happy and holy that children

"were taken to make them agreeable. Elise,

PRINTED BALLOTs FOR THE CONSTITU-
TIONAL AMENDMENT CAN BE HAD AT THIS
OFFICE. ‘

 

._~__ ..........
Read. _

“ Every male citizen of the United
States who shall have attained the age of
twenty-one years, who shall have resided in
this State for a term of one your next, pre-
ceeding, and in the town in which he may
offer himself to he admitted to the privileges
of an elector, at least six months next pre-
ceeding the time at which he may so ofi‘er

of the constitution, or any section of the stat-
utes of this State, and shall sustain a good
moralcharacter, shall, on taking such oath
as may be prescribed by law, become an
elector.” ’

The foregoing is the article which we are
to adopt or reject next Monday. It differs
from the present Article only in omitting the
word white, between the words “male” and
“citizen," in the first line.

Can anybody give any good reason why
one male citizen of the United States, who
possesses the required residence, is able to
read the Constitution and laws, is of good mor-
alcharacler, and is willing to take the oath:
should not be admitted an elector while his
neighbor, possessing precisely the same le-
gal qualifications and no more, is admitted?

How the Election next Monday

is to he held.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatioes in General Assembly convened :

That the constables of the several towns in
this State shall warn the electors in their re—
spective towns to meet on the first Monday
of October, A. D. 1865, at nine o’clock in-the
morning of said day, for the purpose of sig-
nifying their approbation or disapprobation
of said proposed amendment, which meet-
ings shall be held at their usual places of
holding elector’s meetings in said towns re-
spectively, The polls shall remain open un~
til 5 o’clock in the afternoon of said day, and
no longer; and in towns divided into wards
or voting districts, the ballots may be receiv-
ed at the places and in the manner designa-
ted in accordance with the provision of ex~
isting laws. Those in favor of approving or
adopting said amendment, shall give ‘in a

ed thereon, and those who disapprove of said
amendment shall give in 'a‘ballot with the

The Norwalk Band.

- This band, which has been ohganized but
a_ brief time, gave a public rehersal at 'Nor-
walk Hall, a few evenings since, and we
must say we were much surprised at the pro-
ficiency shown and at the rapid advance
made by the Band in playing. The Band is
now fully organ’zed, has fifteen members,
and is under the instruction of Mr. Lum, of
Stamford. Many obstacles, however,are in-
the way of forming Brass Bands, and the
boys have worked hard and overcome all so
far, out now they need and must have out-
side “material aid,” and they call upon our
citizens to come and help them. If suitable
aid and encouragement is given we have no
doubt but the Band will become a permanent
institution and a credit to the town.

To the Soldiers.

Soldiers! for one, two, three, or four years,
you have been in the military service of your
country. You have undergone much hard
lab or. You have home the fatigues of the
march and the toil of the trenches. You have
endured the heat of southern suns, and the
miasma of southern swamps. You have met
the enemy in tlieshock and roar of deadlycon
fiict and testified your valor by your brave
deeds. Many of you bear honorable scars.
Some of you are maimed for life. And al-
most all of you voluntarily exposed your-
selves to all this. , r ‘

Why did you do it! you answer, to pre-
serve the Union. But how was it that ‘Ihe
Union was worth so much, that you should
encounter those frightful hazzards for its
preservation ? Think a moment. Was it
not this? The Union is the guarantee 0‘
American Liberty, and American Liberty
means EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL. There was
never before, there is not. now, another iia-
tionality, which means this. You fought for

 

You were, yourselves, of those masses.

And now that you have come home tri-
umphant, will you not, here in Connecticut,
help, by your votes, to cxrend the equal
'rights, for which you have fought, to those

Read the proposed amendment to tlieCon-
stitution at the head of this column, and say
in your hearts, whether it is not just. ,

We trust you. In the baptism of blood,
which you have undergone, you must have'
learned, that impartial justice is essential to
the well-being of a nation. All that is asked
of you is to be impartial in the distribution
of the elective franchise to high and low,
rich and poor, in this land which your valor
has won to Liberty and Equal Rights.

Our County Fair. '
Opens its grand Annual Exhibition here to-
day. We have earnestly appeale to our
citizens to make it all that it should be and
all they were capable of making it. It is
not too late to urge a merely selfish. and com-
mercial view upon our shopmen and mechan-
ics. We doubt if there be another town in
New England with as much business zeal,
energy and enterprise, where the whole theo-

ry and practice of ADVERTISING is so poorly;

understood and so little used. Take the}.
columns of the Gamma: as a sample of
what we would gladly reform. See adver-‘
tisement after advertisement from merchants
and traders in other towns and cities,- while
our own merchants let the very same kind of
trade slip from under their very eyes. Now

here is a golden opportunity for every mo'r-'_ .

chant in Norwalk to AnvunTrsE and at he:
tle cost, by having some sort of a‘ display‘a’t
the Fair which shall attract, attention to "lfis‘
wares and his store. There isn’t. a single
merchant in Norwalk, as We here said, but'
can do this and make money by'so-ldoing.I—"
We 'entreat them not to all to try it. ‘
Among other features of general interest
which are being prepared for. exhibition at

the Fair, we hear that an» experienced work: .
man of this town proposestobe present duZ-p .

very interesting. . ; - '

The track has been enlarged and ostra.

premiums amounting to $300 . have been of-
fered for speed by citizens of“ Norwalk, and p .

the exhibition of Horses and Colts will, uni"
doubtedly be very large and fine.’ "

' The Fair is to be held upoujtnefiaxiipnifi

Grounds have been enclosed ‘ with a 'high‘

board fence, and put _ in excellent order; The,

main entrance is on the upper side, and the

Last Words.

The people of Connecticut are on trial.
The election of next Monday, will [decide
whether they love the principle of self-gov-

ernment, or are so little attached to- it, as a:

principle, as to continue the denial of its prac{

tical exercise to those of their 'fellowécitiZens;
whom an arbitrary distinction now excludes»

from its benefits. The political parties are,
fully at issue upon the question.

cans to go to the polls and vote for impar'.
tial suffrage. Their opponents have com-
manded their fOllowers to go to the polls and
vote down impartial suffrage. Shallthe rot-
ting carcass of Copperheadism, now a stench
in the nostrils of the land, he galvanized in-
to new life by the neglect or indifference of
Republicans here next Monday ? Is Connect-
icut to bepermitted to becomethe first evi-
dence that it has renewed its loathsome ex-

istence? After Maine and. ,Vermont have“
just given such emphatic attestation of their.

devotion to Republicanrprinciples, shall we
falter? We are perfectly aware of the strength
of the prejudice which Republicans are call-

ed on to overcome next Monday. So much.

the more glorious will be their victory. We
say to them, be men; despise prejudice, sneers

and ridicule; vote as if you' believed, the,
Dedication of Independence in your hearts,,,
as well as on your lips. “There was atime --

when we were doubtful of the result of this
contest. But, from every part of the State,

we hear the old Republican . battle cry‘

sounding in our ears. It assures : us of a
full vote, and a full vote is victory, Let us,

each one, be sure that we help'to swell" ‘the‘

triumph.

dismissed, Capt. Hoyt advanced and in a
short and appropriate address presented 00].
Craufurd, in behalf of the' officers of the
Regiment, with an elegant sword, sash and

trappings, (valued at $100).as a token of the

respect and esteem in which he was held by
them. The [Colonel made a short response,
expressing. his gratitude for the present, and
especially for the manifestation of respect
and good-will of the officers. ."The affair was
happily conceived, and well carried out, the
secret being kept until the last moment,
'when the Colonel and Regiment were fairly
taken by surprise. '

’Maj. Gen. Russell and Staff were present
at the Parade and witnessed the presenta-

To Parties Interested inPa-
per Stock.

Y reference to No. 49069, at the Patent
OEce, it will be seen that the subscriber
has secured a Patent for making good Paper
of Sedge. As diffusion of knowledge was and
is, the prompting motive for the time and
money, as well as labor he has bestowed up-
on it, he is anxious that the world shall reap
the greatest benefits. '
To secure this he proposes to organize four,
five or six strong Companies, each com
tent to convert twenty or thirty tons of Se go
into as many thousand lbs.- of‘ good “ half
stuff” per day. Locating one in. the vicinity
of Boston, another between New York and
Philadelphia, a third at New Orleans, a
fourth on the upper waters of the Missisip-
pi or Missoan and one or two on the West
Coast. These companies to put up Boilers,
Beating Engines, and Bleach Vats, sufficient
to supply the Paper Makers in their several
localities with all the “half stuff” the need,
well-bleached. Which they will be ab e to do
on such terms as to bring good news paper
back to ten cents, and the government tax.
He proposes to create a Stock of Two Hun-
dred Thousand Shares at a par value of $10
per share. One half of this stock to be sold
to origi' 'nal purchasers at $2 50 per share. One
dime per share to be paid in, and invested at
each locality in providing such appliances as
will make not less than one thousand lbs., of
half stuff or binders board per day. -.As soon
as this can be put in operation and itia dem-
onstrated that they will produce goods to the
extent of $25 per day, and that each thou-
sand dollors invested Will make Twenty Five _
Dollars worth of goods per day, at a profit of
one cent per lb. then the balance of the 82.50 '
per share shall be paid in and invested in ad-
dittional appliances, and those appliances to
be used for the account of the entire stock.
And it will then be optional with those who
hold the first stocks to buy in the reserve
stocks at $5 per share, or leave them in the
hands of the Patautee. All the purchase
money claimed by the Patentee, from each
company, will be that they reBay him their
proportion of One Thousand offers which
he has expended in the prosecution of these
ex imeuts within thalast two yean..

e will sell this company the . entire Pat—
out, on the above stated terms. The parties
seem-in the first stocks not to sell to outside
parties ess than par. He will give to a T111;-
tee from each of these Companies all-the de-
tails of the several paocesscs in prepairiug
and bleaching the material, and will atteu
personally to the putting up of theuecessary
machinery, for each, at a fair consideration
for his time.

As it is a matter in which all Pa . 1' Ma-
kers, Publishers, Printers and Book indera
are interested, he invites the members of
these professions or calliugs to become Stock-
holders and managers of the several compa-
nies. And all publishers of periodicals
having a circulation of not less than One
Thousand, and shall subscribe for one hun-
huudred shares, on the terms before proposed,
shall be entitled to a premium of one share ;
and for each subscriber for one thousand
shares, to a premium of ten shares; on two
thousand five hundred shares, thirty-seven
shares; and for five thousand or any number
exceeding, tWO shares upon one hundred.

Subscription Books will be 0 ned at New
York, Philadelphia, Boston, ew Orleans,
St. Louis, St. Paul, &.c., «be.

The Company will be legally organized ‘by
the enrollment of the names of the first Ten
subscribers for five hundred shares or more.
as corporators, to meet at such place as will
be most convenient. The patent to be con-
veyed to them in trust for the company.
The to calla general meeting of ,the st -
ho] era as soon as one-fourth of the stock in
market is subscribed for. This meeting will
decide whether to organize a number of in-
dependent companies or to manage the gen-
eral concern by representatives‘from each lo-
cality. But in either case arrangements will
be made so that the price of goods produced
will be uniform.

Supplimentary to this, the Patentee will
organize a Foreign Assocza' tion, to obtain
Patents and Royalties in all foreign lands.
And to furnish in addition to Paper Stock ;
Paper-makin and Printing Machine , in-
troducing a tinting Press .that wil for a
certainty print three impressions, upon an
sheet, as quick as any. other fast press w I
print one of the same Size.

“ We whose names are annexed agree to
take the number of shares amxed ; upon the
terms above stated, and to deposit the first
installment of one dime per share at
Bank for the purposes set forth, as soon as
the certificates for the Stocks are delivered;
and we furtoermore engage to go llltOOIn
election of Officers in that branch With which

 

we are associated, as soon as 1 shares
are taken." . .

He would call the attention both of capi-
talists who Would invest mtney profitably;
and of enterprising young men of good ad-
dress, who wish for the opportunity to plant
useful institutions of all descriptions over
the whole earth. This may I rough this
agency, be affected (as a money-making busi-
ness) within five years. .
N. B. The same number of shares for this
as the first Company, will be created, and on
