Praise to Almighty God.
, “Who can utter the mighty acts of the
Lord.” They are manifest in healthful seae

The painful uncertainties of civil war have
given place to and military power is
rapid] yielding to civil rule.
Gody has caused questions which were pres-
sed to the arbitrament of arms, to be deter-
mined in favor of national unity and author-
ty. He has caused our armies to be disband-
ed, and our homes to he made joyful by the
return of sons from the field oi conflict.
He has manifested his appreciation of ob-

In days 'of greatest darkness and Perri,
when the Wisdom and power of man ailed
to relieve an agitated and distressed people.
God’s Providence commanded a reverential
recognition of His fildiilné hand in the affairs
of the nation, and p new hopes of in-
' ture good. .
In the exercise of his love, He has also
given his Holy Spirit to impress truth uppn
the hearts of men, to convince them of sin,
to lead them to repentance, to inspire them
with faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as the cm
1% ground of hope for salvation, and to light

State Elections.
To-day (TuesdaY). State elections take
place in New York, New Jersey, Wisconsin
and Minnesota. Thegreatest interest centres
in N ewJ crsev. One of the most exciting and
thorough canvasses has been carried forward
in that state, and our friends are quite confi-
dent oi success. The vote of her legislature
upon the Constitutional Amendment wiping
out slavery is involved, and hence its nation-
al importance.

WThe recent tire and the extreme diffi-

WWe learn that Wendell Phillips has

out thc civilized world.
Mr. Greeley is to speak next week.

mus public’s old friend, Ensign An-

requested us to announce to whom it may
concern, that he is preparing a bitter pill to
be administered to the “fellow” Who grossly
insulted ladies on West Avenue, last Wed-
nesday night, by improperly and indecently
exposing his person, and if he tries it again
he will get a dose that wont agree with his
constitution.
He is also preparing an epitaph for the
Chapel Street Ghost, which he thinks will
satisfy that unhappy spriteand make it con-
tent to cease its nocturnal peregrinations
above ground, and rest in peace, with all
its clean white grave clothes, in its proper
place.

WThe Hatting interest which for a few
years past has rather declined here, has rec
coin-d a new and decided impetus. Several
large shops are now in course of erection at
South Norwalk, and there are a number of
others already taming out a very large quan-
tity of hats weekly. The establishment of'
Mr. Wiley under the Gazette Office. which
started off in a modest way, has already
grown to considerable magnitude, already
giving employment to a score or so of meri,
but in all these growing interests, the want
of houses to line m, is a serious draw-back.

Lectures.
We are to have a series of Lectures this
winter, in Norwalk—that is if the people
really want them and will sustain them. As
intimated in our last :1 Lecture Association
has been formed, and the experiment of giv-
ing lectures will be tried. As we understand
it is not the intention to give a regular course
of lectures, given on stated evenings as is
the usual custom, for it is solate in the sea-
son that it is difficult to secure lecturers who
would give satisfaction. Lectures are to be
given from time to time, (if the Committee
receive encouragement) during the winter, as
the Lecturers can be engaged.
Theseries will commence on the 14th inst.
with a lecture by Hon. HORACE GREELEY,
of the New York Mane, on the subject of '
“ Self—Made Men.” Asa self-made man,
~Mr. Greeley is fully competent to talk upon
that subject. Mr. G.’s time is so much occu-
pied in finishing his history of the war, that
he will not this season accept invitations to
, lecture, generally, as heretofore, but as Nor-
walk is so near New York, he has consented
to accept the Committee’s ofi‘er. We bespeak
for the distinguished Philosopher a crowded
house.
Mr". Greeley will probably be followed by
the great orator, WENDELL PmLuPs, about
the ill-st of December, who will ride hrs
hobby-horse, “The Times.”
Q».
Who will build Houses '2
There is nothing so seriously cram ping the
growth and prosperity of N orwalk as the
pressing want of Houses to live in. It is a
daily occurrence that parties come~ to Nor-
walk seeking dwellings, but are forced away
unable to secure a shelter. There is wealth
enough here tosupply this deficiency and
some one ought to have public spirit enough
to open a vigorous spring campaign of build-
ing. Few investments promise so sure and
safe a return.

fl' We are indebted to Brig-Gen. Wm.
T. Clark, for a late copy of “The Daily
Ranchero,”'published in the “Heroic City"
(as the citizens call it,) of Matamoros, Mexi-
co. The paper is a firm supporter of his Im-
perial Majesty, Maximillian. _We quote the
following, 115 italics being ours: "Our city
has now for the space of a year enjoyed
peace, and the quiet of good government
and order. Our citizens have been exempt
from the miseries of anarchy, disturbances,
forced loans and robberies to which they had
previously been continually subjected. ‘Ap-
preciating the blessing of good government,
under which life and property are secure
and every rational liberty enjoyed, in con-
trast with the murder, robbery and afflicting
despotism which has been the rule rather
than the exception under the blightt'ng sway
of republican factions, the people are resolved
to maintain the governmentand defend their
lives and property.” also this item of news:
"The enemy in force were camping last
night six miles above the city, on the river.
Their forces are estimated at near 2500. The
number of negroes among then is variously
reported ; but from all we can gather, the
three companies previously reported is prob-
ably nearest the truth. An. attack may be
reasonably expected early this morning."

H‘During the fire, on Monday evening
of last week, all the Gas Company’s surplus
gas escaped through the pipes that entered
the burning buildings, and as a natural con-
sequence the company were unable to fur-
nish a surpply for Tuesday night, and our
merchants were forced to initiate the “early
closing movement,” much to the delight of
clerks. Wednesday night there was no lack
of illuminating gas.

Cholera.
Preventron better than Cure. During the
Cholera season of 1841-2 in New York the
writer remained in the most exposed situa-
tion in the city, and had more than a dozen
attacks that would have developed the dis-
ease in thehame forms that proved fatal to
more than three hundred cased in the imme-
diate neighborhood ; had he not from
the first carried a mixture of equal parts of
pulverized charcoal and camphor, taking one
fourth of a tea-spoonful, at any appearance
of the disease. *

securities would be eagerly sought abroad.

WThe London limes reviews our fi-
nancial position. In presenting the treasu-
ry estimate, it says “there is not any reason
for doubting that the Americans can, if they
will, sustain the taxation which these esti-
mates assume. Their resources are enor-
mous, and their energies inexhaustible, but
the prospect, for all that, is a very serious
one.” The British people have never raised
$400,000,000 by taxation in a year. It says
that the Americans propose to do more with
a smaller population, and if they accomplish
it, they will give greater evidence of a na-
tional capacity than they gave even by their
gigantic war.

in hearing evidence and arguments of coun-
sel, when the case was submrtted to the jury,
who returned averdict of “not guilty” on
the charge of riot, acquitting all the defend-
ents on this charge. They found three of

HEAVY BANK DEFALCATION.—-Tlle Provi-
dence Press of Friday, says the Aquidneck
Bank of Newport, R. I., is a looser to the
amount of some forty or fifty thousand dol-
lars through an unfortunate transaction of
one of its officers. In changing from aState
to a National Bank, it was discovered that,
some ten years ago, a. worthless check for
$10,000 had been cashed, and that the party
who presented it so far from refunding the
money, so managed as to obtain an addi-
ll’lllal loan. This transaction on too respon-
sibility of the bank ofiicer alone, placed him
in a position where he must expose the mat-
ter to the directors, or remain at the mercy
of his business acquaintance. He unwisely
decided upon the latter course, and the loans
continued to increase until they had reached
the aggregate of seventy thousand dollars,
they having been paid by the bank ofilcer in
order to kee‘o the matter concealed. The
bank, it rs supposed, lose about fifty thous-
and dollars, but there will be no hindrance
Whatever to its regular business, although
the stockholders will, it is supposed, lose
about one half the value of their shares un-
der the old charter.‘

- President of the whole Republic; Lincoln
Reflections of}: Democrat.
We cannot imagine anything more disa-
greeable to endure than the reflections
which must force themselves on any Derno-
crat at the present time, when he will allow
his thoughts a loose vein. What must he
think of—himself? We imagine his solilo-
\quy. “Here” he says “I am, after this war is
over, despised by everybody who knows
how I behaved while it was raging, be-
cause I abandoned my country, in real peril,
for the sake of party: Rebels assailed the
government, and I not Only refused to re-
sist them, but I helped them all I could by
vote and party plots. I slandered the mat-
dered' Lincoln, and praised Jeff. Davis
and his accursed crew. I advised men not
to enlist, I persuaded others to desert, and
if they went in spite of me. I wished they
might never come back alive. For four
years, while the nation has been struggling
for existence, and heroism of the heroic
days of the Republic has been revived,-I~
have been a crawling, slimy, hissing copper-
head; and what is my reward? The civi-
lized world is applauding'the braves who
fought at Gettysburg, Chicamauga, At-
lanta, Petersburg ands hundred other strick-
en fields, and the sound of the applause
only makes me sick with spite and envy.
The nations are uniting to honor the stern
perseverance, and Roman fortitude which
the loyal freeman of the Republic have ex-
hibited for four years, and all thewhile,I
have been sneering at that loyal devotion
and heaping honors in my heart on the chiefs
of the rebellion. I wanted that rebellion to
be successful, I wanted Jefi‘ Davis to be
driven to the backwoods, and the nation
given over to my Democratic friends, Ben-
jamin, Mason, Slidelliand company. And
this is the end of all of it. A Tennessee tai-
lor,wlro says a nigger ought tovote, is presi-
dent, and my friends are toadying at .the
Court of Louis Napoleon. The fact is, I’ve
been a mean ‘cuss,’ and the worst of it is,
everybody knows it. Oh! Democracy, cle-
mocracy ! you’ve led 'me such a dance in
these years, from 1860 to 1865, that the sound
of your name is an emetic,a scourge, and a
sting of scorpions.”

W The Springfield. Republican’s Wash-

“Mr.Welles came up the aisle with Faxon,
his chief clerk, some time in advance of the
President. He is the patriarch of the cabi-
net, and,iu most respects, is the finest look-
ing. Faxou looks as young as he did years
ago when I used to see him in the office of
the venerable Courant at Hartford. He has
been of inestimable service to the secretary,
and will doubtless stick by his fortunes while
he remains in the cabinet. SOme time ago
I heard that he was sick of the hard work
and poor pay of his ofllce life, but I perceive
he has been persuaded to remain. Few men
in ofllce have worked so hard and so honest-
ly as he has.”

THE NATIONAL Finances.“ The New
York Tribune says the entire Goyermental
expenditure for the coming'year will be $265
000,000, which, according to present appear-
ance, will be quite covered by the income
from Internal Revenue alone.
H.>...—-—-
WTbe Tribune says that ever indication
justifies the expectation of a union triumph
in the New York State election, to day, by
more than last year’s majority. This proph-
ecy is based on the excellence of the registry
law, desi ned to prevent frauds, and conse—
quently eemed a hard and discriminating
measure by the Democrats. .

HENRY WILsON ON Manson—In his
speech at Troy, N. Y., Henry Wilson, said .'
n Monday last, when addressing the 1st
regrment of colored volunteers from the Dis-
trrct, which had lost 500 or 600 men in thir-
teen battles, the president told them this was
their countryas much as anbody’s. Do they
support him in that declaration 1’ Why,what
becomes of their talk about this being a white
man’s country 1’ He also told them they
would be judged by their merits, white or
black—a noble sentiment that does him hon-
or. I never hear a white man, born in this
land of free schools, churches, and all the
blessings of a ripe civilization, talking of ne-
gro equalityas a nugbsar but I hang my
head in shame. Such a man feels his weak-
ness and wants the laws framed to keep the
black man down. I Walk the earth with
the conviction that I am equal to the proud-
est, but no man, wherever born, or of what-
ever race, whom God made and Christ died
to save, but is my equal. [Loud Cheering]

A GOOD HrT.——During the discussion be-
tween General Kilpatrick and his opponent
in New Jersey, Mr. Rodgers made a strong
point in favor of equal taxation, and drew
an affecting picture of the result of exempt-
ing federal hon is fr. m taxation, and the
handships of this policy on the poor, who
were obliged to bear the burdens thus got
rid of by the rich. To this appeal General
Kilpatrick replied by a fair retort that the
Democrats of New Jersey were not honest
in their Opposition to unequal taxation,since
no less than four millions of State bonds and
fifty-six millions of railroad property were
untaxed by the Democratic Legislature. If
they were taxed, no man in New Jersey need
pay a cent of State taxes.

RECONSTRUCTION—It seems from recently
received ofilcrai information, that .eorgani-
zation in Arkansas has progressed quietly,
and is a success. President Johnson has
informed the Governor of the State
that there will be no interference with its
government. Not only does he invite the
tate to resume its former relations with the
federal government, but he promises it all
the aid of the general government in the
premises.

__.—The city of Mexico was in great danger
on the 5th of October. The Lake of Tucsco
immediately adjoining, was within one inch
ofthe level of the city of Mexico. If the
rain had continued a few days longer, the
imagination can scarcely conceive of the ter-
ror and destruction which'would have pre-
vailed there.

To the Editor of the New York Herald.
Respecting the relics of porcelain ware found in
the late exhumations at Herculanetrm, which have
been forwared to the Society of Antiquities in Len-
don, whereof your correspondent says the bottle re«
gambling Drake's Plantation Bitters was undoubt-
edl y placed among the ruins by the agent of Dr.
Drake, we desire to state that he is incorrect in ev-
ery respect. If a bottle was found there bearing our
lettering, the language of the Ancient Romans was
difi'erent from the accepted literature of that day.
Our Agent has other business than this in Europe,
and has not been in Italy at all. No doubt Ameri'
cans carry Plantation Bitters to Rome: but trying
to impose upon a society 'ofAntiquarians in thisway
seems quite needless, and we do not appreciate the
joke, It is unnecessary for us to spend money in
Europe while We are unable to supply the demand
for these celebrated Bitters here.
