FAST AND LOOSE.
Lafayette 8. Foster, Wm. A. Buckingham
and Orris S. Ferry are three men who have
fitly been honored by the people of Connec-
ticut. Next winter marks the close of
12 years consecutive service in the Senate by
Mr. Foster; while Mr. Buckingham has
been Governor for the last eight or nine
years—longer than any one had been before
him since the days of the Trumbulls. Gen.
Ferry has been a less successful politician ;
but he was thrice the Republican candidate
for Congress from the Western District,ouce
elected, and twice beaten by a halt-handful
of votes. When the war broke out, _he vol-
unteered and served in it to the end, attaiu~
ing the rank of Brigadier General. Thor-
oughly loyal and true, he is inferior in no
quality to either of his late rivals.
Yet he had Men so long in the Army, out
of sight of the active politicians, that, when
his name was presented to the late Republi-
can Senatorial Caucus he received but 24
out of 144 votes. But he gained on every
ballot thenceforth till the seventh, when he
was nominated by a clear majority of 14
votes
,, Mr. Foster, on the other hand, led on the
first ballot, when he had 65 votes; but,
though he thrice had one more, and once
one less, he could not be pushed ahead, and
closed with exactly the vote hated on the
first ballot. Look once lyre at the instruc-
tive tally. .

é-Here you see plainly that the majority,
though divided in their preferences, were
fixed on one point—they would not have Mr
Foster for a third term. Could he have ob-
nined barely eight of the 55 votes originally
cast for Buckingham, he would have been
uomluamd; but among all the 55 friends of
Buckingham, therewas but one who did not
prefer Ferry to Foster.
, Such were the circumstances under which
Gen. Ferry was nominated by a decided ma-
jority of the Republican Union members,aud
the nomination thereupon made unanimous
g-the election being appointed to take place
on. Wednesday last.
, On that day, the House accordingly voted
with this result :
' o. a. Perry, 139. R. D. Hubbard, 93
L. 8. Foster, 7. Thomas H Seymour, 1
Ferry over all others—31.
The Senate consists of 21 members; so, if
the two houses were to meet in joint ballot,
and every Senator vote against Ferry, he
would still be elected. - -
Yet the Senate, by 12 to 8 (1 absent) post-
poned the election to mt Wednesday ;' and
a desperate effort is being made to defeat
Gen. Ferry’s election through a coalition of
sore and Copperheads. ,
'We have stated the facts in the case with
judicial calmness. If they wound any oue‘s
' sensibilities, the fault is his or the facts-mot
ours. Ifdishouor is involved in going into
a caucus to nominate a party candidate, and
being there beaten, coming out to intrigue
with the common adversary to defeat your
own nominee, we cannot help that “ Men
of honor” are supposed to have a rather lax
code of social morality ; yet there is not a
horse-racer or other “sport” in America who
would consent to stand in like predicament
with Mr.Foster,or could hold his head among
his associates if he did. To go into caucus
intending to abide the result if you win, but
repudiate if you are beaten, is to do what no
blagkleg not already crop-cared would stoop.
to 0. ‘
No man breathes a word in disparagement
of GeuFerry. It is, not the man that is ob-
jectional, but his straightforward, Radical
convictions. If for these he is beaten after
his fair nomination, and another elected by
Copperhead. and “Conservative” votes, it is
presumed, of course, that this will be the end
of the Republican-Union party. But this is
a gross mistake. The party will live, what-
ever'may be the fate of its betrayers.
N Y. Trdmne.
The Wm is evidently laboring under
the erroneous impression that the postpone-
ment was made against the wishes of the
friends of Gen. Ferry. They desired that
the election should'be deferred until Mr.
Curtis of the 16th District could be present,
and the motion to postpone was sustained
by the three senators who had been con-
stantly quoted by the democrats as in their
scheme to defeat an election.
The vote on the motion was a strictly par-
ty one, as follows:
YEas—Stoufihton, Harrison, Appelman,
Wait, Palmer, allard, Greenslit, McGregor,
Roberts, Cone, Bolton, Kellogg—12.
»_Nays-—Be_ach, Ha den, Bond, Rodgers,
Bishop, Fairman, ranger, Hubbard—m8.
Absent—Curtiss. .
Our opponents have been perfectly bla-
tautin their boastings that Gen. Ferry was
to be defeated and that the men‘aud. the
may was at command to' accomplish it.
The strict party . vote to postpone, furnishes
. arefutation to ,this-‘aspersio'n, and were it
true that any number of republican senators .‘
were about to betray their party, it is not ';
probable that they would make the democ-
racy the only recipients of their secret. The
coppers have offered large bets on the defeat
of Gen. Ferry, but they bet as freely and
blowed even more lustity over the certain
defeat which was to overtake Geu. Hawley.
“ The best laid. schemes 0’ mice and men,"
are, and we can well afford to awaitin hope-
ful confidence the: vote of next Wednesday.

Sat; 'AccmENi'f—A very sad afiair’bccur-
red in this place, on Wednesday afternoon
last, by which the lives of two children were
lost. Charles Edgar Scofield, only son of
Capt. Edgar S. and Lavina Scoficld,of New
Haven, about 13 years of age, who was liv—
ing with his grand-father, Mr. Smith Sco-
field, on the New Canaan road, and who
came here for the purpose of attending
school this summer, received permission to
go fishing in Wilson’s pond. On the way he
stopped for a litte girl named J ulia Crandall,
about 10 years of age, daughter of the late
Noyes and Sarah Craudall, of New Yerk._
Together they entered a boat, which shortly
after upset with them in deep water, and no
help teaching them they went down. , Mrs.
Craudall, however, arrived upon the scene
just in time to witness the agonizing specta-
cle of her daughter going down for the last
time. The bodies of both children were re-
ctercd, and the boy was taken to New Ha-
ven and buried, and the girl to White Plains.
Another sad fact which renders this accident
all the more overwhelming for the mother of
the little girl, is ‘that during the last year she
baud oulyabout two weeks ago. She has

recently finished two of the most elegant
carriages ever devoted to mercantile pur-
poses in this country. One of these carriages
arrived in team on Saturday last, and has
attracted .much attention. The body of the
carriage is entirely covered with glass pau-
nels, beneath each of which is the advertise-
ment of some prominent patent medi-
cine for parties in different parts of the
country, in pearl, gold and silver, with beau-
tiful designs—the card of Webster & Co, oc-
cupying a prominent position. Four hor-
ses and two men—one to drive and. one as
salesman—accompany the team. The cost
of the two teams, fully equipped amounts
to about seven thousand dollars.

is with no slight satisfaction that we can
point to it as a specimen of Norwalk skill and

WSpeaking pf the Senatorial question,
-the Ashtabula (Ohio,) Telegraph, edited by
James Reed, has the following :—
‘5 There is no doubt that Gen. Ferry will
represent the State in the Senate of the Uni-
ted States, for the next six years, and there
is no question but that she will be so repre-
sented as never to regret that her honor has
been confided to his hands. The State may
well ciiugratulate itself and the country up:
on its choice.” ~
The Stamfordfidocate says : ' “We shall
wait with much interes t the result of the
bulletin the Senate. We can scarcely credit.
this astounding rumor that there-are Repub-
licans iu the Senate, who are willing to lend
themselves to such such an ignoble purpose,
after pledging themselves to support the can.-
cus nomination. It would be an act of polit-
ical perfidy such as we are seldom called up-

What Ketchum is Doing.
ANew York correspondent writes thus
of young Ketchum: " . . '
For the satisfaction of those who wish
special information concerning this unfortu-
nate young man,‘ we state that he is serving
as book keeper in the shoe shop at Sing Sing
State prison; that his behavior has won
the good Will of all about him; that he
breakfasts in his cell, but is allowed to
eat. dinner and, supper in the work room
with the foreman and outside helpers who
bring their dinners 'with them, at which
meals he has the best of fare; that his pn-
reuts and wife come after] to see him ; that
he receives and answers many letters; and
that the prospect is that he will come out
better fitted for business than ever. and then
havehis revenge on Wall street. He is not
confined to the rule ,of silence generally
maintained in prison, but .is allowed every
possible privilege, being looked on as the
victim of circumstances rather than as a
studied malefactor. , .

cheapest known in this country. Materials
which are liable to be confounded with this
