W FOR A COLUMN or MISCELLANEOUS
READING MATTER, sEE THIRD PACE
. ‘.> .
Reconstruction.
The policy of the President slowly devel-
ops itself, and, as every rational man ex-
points unmistakably in the geaeral
direction indicated by the administration of
Mr. Lincoln. Many of the original apport-
ers of the latter have been much pained, du-
rlngths three or four months last past, by
what they considered signs of hesitation on
the part of Mr. Johnson in reference to the
practical application of Republican princi-
ples in the reconstruction of the relations of
the people lately in rebellion. both toward
the federal government and the recently
emancipated citizens, who make up so large
a proportion of southern society. Such men
forget that it is not the duty of the President
of the Unimd Stews, in times like these, to
be publicly gerrulous about the final results
contemplated by his policy. and that it is
often wiser. as well as more dimcult to be
silent thanto speak. Butas society begins
m assume something of its normal condition
in the lately rebellious communities, we find
the utterances of MrJohnson growing clear-
er. until now over hie own signature endors-
ed upon the paper of Mr. Steerns, Mr.
Johnson takes square ground for the
abrogation of the distinction of color
as a qualification for the exercise of the suf-
frage. As the drill of his policy is thus de-
veloped, the vermin which have been trying
to fasten themselves to hie garments. drop
ofi of themselves, the contact of manly lib
eretion from prejudice being as poisonous to
them as the air of New England is to sla-
yery, and. as we prophesied a week ago, to
a copperhead disputant, in two months from
this date. the whole pack of disloyal hounds
that have been crawling to the President’s
feet and whining for permission to lick the
crumbs under his table, will be bristling,
snarling.and yelping at his heels,as being the
friend of radicals and sinners of the aboli-
tion type.
We are satisfied with th! shaping of
events. We woald like to have them cape-
ble of hurrying a1 mg a little faster, but we
are not the people. nor will wisdom die with.I
us. The President and Cabinet can see
much further than we can. for before them
the whole country is displayed as in a map.
by the report of their hundred official sub-
ordinates in every State. The Administra-
tion is honest. attached to its own party, but
bound to so ad minister affairs as. if possible
tounite instead of dividing, to 'conciliate,
instead of alienating. There is alimit, of
course, beyond which it will not go, and
we do not doubt that the late utterances of
the President Were purposely given to
the public. that thereby the foul atmosphere,
generated by Copperhead slime about him,
might be dissipated forever. Lookin g
at our owu locality. there is enough
prejudtoe.servillty. and meanness brought
to our recollection by the thought of
Monday. Oct. 2d. 1805, to induce us to think
that our own efi‘orts have sufficient occupao
local home. without looking for objects of
care at a great distance.

Miss Dickinson’a Lecture.
A more select. or attentive audience never
favored any public speaker in Norwalk, with
its presence than that which greeted the
young Quakeress on Tuesday evening last,
at Lockwood‘s Hall. The subject of. her
lecture had been announced as “ Home
Thrusts," but her agent had failed to notify
her of the selection. and she cam'e with .her
notes of “Flood Tide“ only. We presume.
however. that it makes little difference what
title she may select for her discourses, the
subject matter from the natural bent of her
mind inevitably runs through the same chan-
nels of thought. She is of the extreme
Wendell Phillips order of Abolitiouiats. To
her, color and condition make no difi'erence
as to the rights and privileges. The lower
the order of humanity, the keener ber sym-
pathy for and her reprobatlon of all preju-
dice or attempted oppression. The meanest
thi lg wearing God‘s image. is in her theol0v
gy, a brother. and receives a brother's sympa'i
thy. We have heard her perhaps a dozen
' times and the burden of her theme has ever
been denunciation of slavery and wrong.
Butshe asks no person or party to be re-
sponsible for her sentiments. She speaks aaa
brave, bold and yet true woman. Her invec-
five for those at the North who have oppOo
sed the war, the draft. and done all in their
power to embarrass the Union cause, was
terrible, and caused much evident gratifica-
tion to her Republican auditors, but before
she closed, her withering criticism of the
short comings of the Republican party must
have left all such in doubt as to which po-
litical organization had sustained the most
damage. She utters great truths rather than
pleasant ones ; at times she is truly pathetic
and eloquent, and her lectures will always
engage a popular audience. The Lecture
must have be» u a pecuniary success. and we
now move the young men to go ahead and
call hither other of the popular orators of
our country and times without reference to
party or creeds. 'Ws should be glad to hear
Sunset Cox and Garrison. Vallandigham and
Fred Douglass. Why can’t a popular course
be at once inaugurated?
P. S. We learn that an association is be-
ing formed here for the purpose of giving a
series of Lectures, and perhaps several first
class Concerts, during the winter. If they
meet with suitable encouragement from the
people they will engage the best talent to be
obtained. for Lectures or Concerts, putting
the price of admission as low as possible.
Probably the first Lecture will be delivered
by Hon. Horace Greeley, in the course of a
fortnight, to be followed .soon by a Concert
by Madame Varian and Mr. Hoffman.

WW9. are deeply pained to learn that
one of those crushing sorrows that will ever
wring the parents heart when death comes
to the little flock, even in its mildest forms,
has overtaken our friend, E. S. Cleveland of
Hartford. In this case a young son, in the
first blush of noble manhood, was stricken
down by an accidental gunshot. while the
weapon was in the hands of a careless com
panion. All the circumstances attending
the accident and death are of the most pain-
ful character and our friend’s bereavment is
no ordinary one. Vela is human condolence
in cache sorrow. May the Good Father
pour the oil of His Divine consolation into
the bleeding hearts of the stricken parents.

FIRE. N
Destruction of Burrall’s Block. .
Just as we Were preparing to go ,0 press .
. last evening, the alarm of fire was given,
which proved to be the old block of frame
buildings. known for years as Burrall’s
Block, and situated adjoining the Gazette
Building, on the west aide, on Wall Street.
The fire broke out about 5 o‘clock, P. M. and
burned with great fury for over two hours,
until the entire building Was destroyed. For-
tunately-there was nowind stirring at the
time. and by the exertions of the firemen the
flames were prevented from spreading to the
buildings in the immediate vicinity. The
buildings were owned by John A. Weed
and A. H. Byington, and were occupied as
stores and dwellings. The entire loss 'on
buildings and stock is estimated at about
$15,000, and the Insurance on the same was
$11300. chigfiy in New York Ofilces. Insu-
rance on buildings, $6,000 ; on stock, $5,200.
Tun FIREIIEN
Were promptly at the scene of confiagra.
tion,and acquitted themselves nobly through-
out. They experienced—as they always do
here for lack of proper water works,—great
diflculty in getting a supply of water, ren-
dering their efi‘orts at first almost unavailing.
On the start Phoenix Engine Was obliged to
take position in the rear of Cnurch's Ma-
chine Shop. and force the water througha
great length of hose to the fire. Afterwards
they changed to the rear of James’s build-
ing. and worked to rather better advantage.
Through these discouraging circumstances
the boys kept up their courage, and worked
like beavers. The Silver Gray Engine Com-
pany plunged their Engine down close to the
river, just above our Office, and did their
work nobly; accomplishing much good.
Though working under very discouraging
circumstances indeed, they kept a steady
stream of water on the fire, and on the barns
in the rear, and a constant lookout for the
adjoining buildings. As brother firemen. we
are glad to give them the credit they so richly
deserve. The Hook & Ladder boyswere in
the “thickest of the fire” doing all they knew
how. to prevent the flames extending, and
their hooks and ladders never came in better
play. The Hose boys, always active, were
promptly at their posts, and did their duty
faithfully and well.
Chief-Engineer Smith. at the commence-
ment of the fire, telegraphed to Stamford
for help, and the firemen turned out in large
numbers. and came over with No. 2 Engine,
arrivingjust asthe fire had completed itswork
THE OCCUPANTS.
At this early hour we are unable to obtain
the loss of each sufferer. The first store next
to Gazette Building, owned by A. H. Bying-
ton. was occupied by Theo. Fitch, Hardware
Business; no tenants up stairs. Second
store. owned by John A. Weed, and occupi-
ed by E. P. Weed, Druggist; occupied as a
dwelling up stairs by E. A. B. Northrop.
Third store, owned by A. H. Byington, and
occupied by Mr. Zalmon Hoyt, Shoemaker;
dwelling up-stairs by Mr. John Cockefnr—
Mr. C. had $350 insurance on furniture.
Fourth store, owned by A. H. Byington, and
occupied by Alex. Smith as Adams Express
office, Fruit Store &c. Mr. Cockefur over-
head. Fifth store owned by A. H. Byington
and occupied as a Bakery by Met. Kernan;
up stairs by Miss S. Chinery, Dress Making
Rooms. Sixth store. owned by Mr. Bying-
ton and occupied as a Meat Market by Mr.
Reed Doty; up stairs occupied by Mat.
Roman and Wm. Hoyt. These tenants
must have lost nearly all they possessed, and
a liberal community should assist them in
their distress. ~
Gazette Building, Stephenson‘s Building
and Hotel, Norwalk Hall, and the barns in
the rear of the burning buildings- were in
great danger, but by the exertions and
watchful care of the firemen they were all
saved.
In this connection, we would tender our
most earnest thanks to the Chief Engineer
and the Fire Department of Norwalk, one
and all, for the great services rendered us by
them during the fire. They were always
prompt and cheerful in rendering all assist-
ance in their power. and but for their servi-
ces the old Gazette would have received a
“scorching.” Again. boys, accept our thanks.
We would also return thanks to the many
citizens whoso kindly aided us during the
fire. Also, to the Stamford Fire Depart-
ment; although their services were not
needed after their arrival, we are all of us
indebted to them for their good will and
readiness to work shown in their prompt-
ness in answering our call for help.
A CARD.
The subcriher would publicly return
thanks to the Fire Department of the Bor-
ough at Stamford for their promptness in
coming to the assistance of, and for the aid
extended to the Firemen of Norwalk, at the
fire, on Monday evening last.

Dr. Gleason’s Lectures.
The lectures now being delivered at Nor-
walk Hall. by Dr. Gleason. are very able and
exceedingly interesting and instructive, and
it is certainly very strange that they attract
so few heaters. The lectures are Splendidly
illustrated by manikins. charts, etc., and the
Dr’s style is very pleasing. If the people
understood the character and value of these
lectures the Hall would certainly be crowded
every evening. The lectures continue through
this week. Next week the Doctor goes to
Stamford.

Company, being about to return to New

intention of resigning. Ate meeting of the
Company it was voted unanimously to re-
quest him to reconsider the matter, and it is
probable he will consent to accede to their
wishes and retain his commission.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—A young man named
William Stebbins, while engaged in coup-
ling cars near the Danbury &. Norwalk
Railroad Freight Depot. in this place, on.
Thursday afternoon last, was almost instann
ly killed. The deceased was a native of
Ridgficld. but resided at the time of his
death with his mother near the scene of the
accident. Although but 28 years and 10
months of age, he was a ‘iVeteran abidier.”
having served in the army of the Union, four
years. He enlisted early in the war, in the
43d New York Regiment, and took part in
61 engagements, missing only two in which
his Regiment participated. When he on-
listed he was a stranger to all in the Regi-
ment, but was soon made a Corporal and
then an Orderly Sergeant. and subsequently.
for gallant conduct, a 2d Lieut. Strange
that he should be killed by a Railroad acci-

age. His funeral took place at the Congre-

BOROUGH Mermaid—At the Borough
Meeting held on Friday last, it was voted to
lay a three mill tax to be used towards pay-
ing the Borough debt. It was also voted to
remove the night watchmen. We are sorry
for this for we think the watchmen were
really needed. and that instead of taking of
those two men one or two others should
have. been put on. Well, citizens must now
look out for themselves, and it will be well
for them to keep a sharp eye on the fasten-
ings of their doors and windows.

The Coscob Bridge has been temporarily

that the company are about raising the rate
of passenger fare, along the whole line—ma-
king the fare from Norwalk to New York
$1.40. As this company has a monopoly of
travel. we suppose we must submit to any
exhorbitant charges they may see fit to re-

Celebration of the 150th Anni-
versary of the Greens Farms
' Church.
Thursday the 26th inst.. was the 150th un-
niversary of the Greens Farms Congrega-
tional Church, and the good people of the
parish desiring to commemorate the event,
have been for some time past very busi-
ly engaged in preparing for a proper ob-
servance of it. All things being ready,invita-
tions were sent out to all old members of
the Church and their descendents to return
to the Farms for one day. for a grand {95
union,—to meet old friends, relatives and»
neighbour—attend services once again in the
Farms Church—and lastly, oall set doWn
together to a public dinner, where there
should be afull and gushing flow of senti-
"ment ’ and good feeling, a feast of sub-
stantial eatebles.
The day opened suspiciously, and at an
early hour the Church was croweded with
people from near and far.’ The assemblage
was called to order by E. J. Taylor, Esq., on
behalf of the Committee of Arrangements,
and then organized by the appointment of -
Hon. James C. Loomis, of Bridgeport, Presi-
dent for the day, Messrs. Hezekiah Ripley,
Dr. W'. B. Nash, N. Hewitt, D. D., and Maj.-
Gen. Couch.asVice Presidents; Edwin J.
Taylor, Secretary. The services opened
with Prayer and reading of the Scriptures
by Rev. Mr. Sturges, of Greenfield Hill;
singing of Coronation by the Choir; an elab-
orate and'very interesting Historical dis-
comes, by the pastor, Rev. B. J. Relyea,
giving a full and complete history of the
Church,—an invaluable document; singing
of a Hymn by the choir.
After the exercises at the church had been
concluded, a procession was formed and
marched to where the large Tent of the
County Agricultural Society had liben erect-
ed, and in which the Dinner was to be served
to the invited Guests and all members of the
congregation. The scene here was truly
astonishjng, six large tables, the whole
length of the tent had been laid,with’benches
capable of sitting 600 people at once. The
Tables Were heavily laden with roast Tur-
kies, Chickens, Geese, Ducks, Beef, Pork,
doc, and beautified with large and handsome
bouquets, while around the Tent were dis-
played a number of National Flags—the
glorious old Red, White and Blue.
After the people were seated. ablessing _
was asked by Rev. W. J. Jennings, when all
present commenced the agreeable task of
“clearing the tables” of the tempting viands,
but the ladies had provided so bountifully it
was found after all had partaken that there
were left many “baskets of fragments."
After the appetite had become sated. the
reading of Toasts was gone through with as
follows: ' ' _
1st. We welcome today the sons and
daughters of Greene Farms, who are here to
unite with us in celebrating the Memory of
our Ancestors: Worthy children of their fa-
thers—an honor to their native place: Use-
ful and respected citizens of the various parts
of our common country, in which the provi-
dence of God has placed them. May they
return with renewed veneration for those
men of old, who have laid the foundation of
virtue and religion. ' '

more than a third of our History; may his
memory ever be cherished.
Responded to in a few humorous remarks

New Canaan, also related several remniscen-
cos of Dr. Ripley.
4th. The Fathers in the Ministry--
As some tall clifi that lifts in noble form,
Swells from the vale and midway leaves the

Eternal suhshine settles on its head.
Responded to by the Rev. Dr. Hewitt, of
Bridgeport.
5th. The brave defenders of our Institu-
tions—Men who have “jeoparded their lives
upon the high places of the field,” may they
long live to receive a nation’s gratitude, and

7th. The Farm and the Church—God’s pre-
cious gifts to man -united in holy ties, they
crown him with richest blessing.
Responded to by the Rev. W. J. Jennings,
a former resident at the Farms; he closed
with the following Sentiment :—
le Farms Church—As she has great beau-
ty of situation, may she ever be arrayed in
“the beauties of holiness,” and. by a large
membership, refiect much of the radience of
abs Sun of righteousness shining brightly on
er.
8th: The People of Greens Farms—Ma
they long live the righteous, ly and so -
emn lives of the founders o the ancient
church of Greene Farms, in the grateful eu-
joyment of the rich blessings handed dowu
to them.and may they faithfully transmit the
same ti posterity.

wood, of WoOdbridge, Conn. Rev. Dr. Hew-
itt also readalong and entertaining letter
of recollections from a former pastor of the
church—Rev. Dr. Hooker, now of Nashua,
N. H.
9th. The Old World and the New—May
there never be a Flood between them.
Responded to Very happily by the Rev.
Enoch Burr. The old world and the new.
did not mean Europe and America, but the
times 150'years‘ ago and now, the present.
Capt~ Jonathan Godfrey also made a few re-
marks, relating to the times of the Rev. Dr.
Ripley.
10th. Res. B. «I Belgian—The distinguished
orator and faithful pastor; may be long live
in the enjoyment of the blessings of his par-
ish, and may he. be finally received in the
mansions. crowned with the reward of his
labors. We tender to him our warmest
thanks for his efiorta this day.
Responded to by the pastor in a few re.
marks, after which those present, led by the
choir of the church,joined in singing “Auld
Lang Sync" and the Doxology, when the
Benediction was pronounced. and the cre-
monies and festivities of the occasion closed.
The Committee of Arrangements and the
good people of the Farms may well feel
proud of the happy and successful manner
.in which everything passed ofi‘. It was one
of the nicest, largest and best gatherings of
the kind it has been our good fortune to at-
tend. Among the noted guests present we
noticed Maj. Gen. D. N. Couch of Massachu-
setts, (the Gen. was, we believe born in the
Parish), and now running as the Democratic
nominee for Governor of the old Bay State;
Rev. Dr. Nathaniel Hewitt, and Hon. James
C. Loomis of Bridgeport; and the Revs
Messrs. McLean of Fairfield, Burr, Jennings,-
David M. Elwood, (formerly of Norwalk.)
Prof Clark of Yale, and others.

during the year which is now coming to an
end, to relieve our beloved country from the .
learlul scourge of civil war, and to permit
us to secure the blessings of peace, unity
and harmony, With a great enlargement of
civil liberty; and, Whereas, our Heavenly
Father has during the year graciously avert-
ed from us the calamities of foreign war, pes-
tilence and famine, while our granaries are
full of the fruits of an abundant season ; and
whereas, righteousness exalteth a nation,
gwhile sin is a re roach to an people,
’ ITherefore I.
DREW JO NSON,Presi-
dent of the United States, do hereby recom-
mend to the people thereof that “18D set
apart and observe the FIRST THURS AY
OF DECEMBER as a day of National
Thanksgiving to the Creator of the Universe
for these deliverences and blessings; and I
do further recommend that on that occasion
the. whole people make confession of our
national sins against His infinite goodness,
and with one heart implore the divine uid-
ance in the ways of national virtue and oli-
uses.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the Uni-
ted States to be afiixed.

adopted an ordinance abolishing Slavery.
Another, declaring the war debt null and
void, was referred to a committee. There is
said to be a strong feeling against it. which
will probably be modified by a dispatch from
Secret Seward, assuring the Convention
that the resident cannot recognize any peo-
ple as loyal who admit the legal obli ation

NORTH AND SOUTH—Before the war a
certain journal “out west” used to print two
editions—one with a certain set of “demo-
cratic principles” for Southern circulation,
the other with another set of democratic
principles for Northern circulation. It paid
well. and no one knew the difference. Now,
while the Former has the “nigger on the
brain.” horribly, and won’t rest in peace for
fear the black man will improve his condi-
tion, and assert and maiintain his claims to
manhood. its late editor is publishing a
“freedman,s paper" down in Augusta, Ga,
according to the Constitutionalist of that
city, which copies the folowing article in
support of the Statement. from the Macon
Journal :—
It was in contemplation in this city some
time agO, by a pretty intelligent colored man
to establish a newspaper here especial] de-
voted to the interest of freedmen. ran
some cause or other, we know not what, the
enterprise fell through. Recently, we learn,
a negro speaker at Athens, Ga.. publicly an-
nounced that the Chronicle and Sentinel. of
Augusta, was as an organ as they wan-
ted, and urged his brethren of sable hue to
subscribe for it whether they could read or
not. Whether he was successful in drum-
ming up any considerable number of sub-
scribers or not, we cannot say, but it is due
totruth for us to confess that, in the wide
range of our acquaintance with Southern
journals. we know of no one so peculiarly
fitted for the position of negro representative
by the instinct and education of its editor, as
the Chronicle and Sentinel. We believe,
that the colored race, in their new position
are entitled to and ought have a newspaper
representative exclusively their own, and if
they are willing to adopt it, we see no reason
why this Augusta paper should not be made
their especial favorite: its principles may be
a shade whiter than the complexion of those
whom it would be called on to represent
but not enough so to make a material differ.

'3‘ Something seems to be "to pay” with
the New Orleans steamers. We have this
morningrhaccounta of disasters to three of
them. e North Star, from New York the
run, was with dificulty towed into Norfolk
leaking rapidly. The Republic, from New
York the 18th, was wrecked ‘ofi' the coast of
Georgia, and from the brief dispatch it would
seem that the loss must have been serious.
And then the Victor, leaving New York on
the 21st, was towed into Fortress Monroe,
her boilers and rudder. disabled. leaking bad-
ly, and passengers exhausted with pumping.

WTO be or not to be (in the fashion is
the question of the day.) This question is
made a subject of” daily discussion at the
large and extensive clothing emporium of
Messrs Clark, Traphagen dc Hunter, Nos. 398,
400 and 402 Bowery, N, Y. They consider
the large stock of goods which they manufac-
ture and offer for sale—to combine an ele-
gant fit with durability of workmanship.
Purchasers can select what pleases them and
be suited to their individual tastes, and as
the proprietors endeavor in their manufac-
ture to have as great a variety as possible,
the most fastidious can procure at this estab-
lishment the rarest and richest materials.
The custom department being under the di-
rection of one long skilled in the arts of a
fashionable Tailor a sure fit is warranted.
We take pleasure in bringing this matter be-
fore our readers and would suggest the pro-
priety of giving them a call before purchas-
ing elsewhere. The establishment is central-
ly located, and this together with polite sales-
men, and an endless variety of allkinds of
men and children’s wear, should make it an
object to purchasers.
