Editorial Letter.
Wasmua'roa, Jan. 1911i, ’67.

The Senate proceedings on Thursday were
highly stimulated by a charge made in de-
bate by Mr. Sumner to the effect that the
President had become an enemy of his coun-
try. McDougal of California, who it is no
ther indelicate or improper to state, is a con-
firmed :drunkard, rose to a point of order,
but failed in his attempt to take down the
ofi‘eusive words of the Massachusetts Sena-
tor as- uttered. Mr. Anthony, of Rhode
Island, was occupying the chair at the time
and overruled the point, but Mr. Doolittle

, immediately came to the rescue of his mas-
ter, and the discussion was prolonged and
the Senate adjourned without settling the
matter. On Friday the contest was renewed,
and in the progress of the debate Mr. Sum-
ner charged that the rebellion crushed out
by the sacrifices and sufi‘erings of Union
srms,~was still progressing; that we had

. simply exchanged its leaders, and Andrew
Johnson had taken the place of Jefferson

. Davis. This of course .but intensified the
feeling already aroused ; and the good result
of the debate to the parties conceflied or to
the country, is not apparent to practical eyes.

The Senate Naval Committee have had
under consideration the League Island Bill
of the last session. Their last session was
held to«dav, when a majority of the commit-
tee agreedto adopt the Heuse Bill, which
passed by seven majority at the last session.
The sophistry of the bill consists in the sub.

terfuge of authorizing the acceptance of.

League Island for an Iron Clad Navy, “when-
ever acommzhubn appointed by the President
shall recommend the same”. The commission
will of course be selected by the Secretary
of the Navy for the purpose of accepting
League Island. But the passage of the com-
mittee’s report by the Senate is very doubt-
ful. Mr. Dixon and Mr. Foster will deal the
iniquity some deadly blows. Brandsgee in
a twenty-five minute speech, (a perfect little
.. gem, bristling with electrical flashes of ora-
tory and unanswerable logic), reviewed the
legislation of the country with reference to
the whole question. He was followed by
Senator Foster in a cogent speech urging the
absurdity of League Island and the enor-
mous outlay involved in its accep1auce and
closing. by submitting a proposition that
Congress raise a commission composed of
Admiral Farragut, Lt.-Gen. Sherman and
the chief ofilcer of the coast survey, who
shall examine all sites which may be ofiered,
and upon their finding, the best one shall be
. 4opted by the Government. A proposition
-2 reasonable and so fair, it is believed, will
ventually pass the Senate.
Representative Warner made a speech last
. evening which has received a general mead
of praise for its ability and fearless logic. He
takes the most advanced ground on recon-
struction, and this speech which has chal-
longed such universal admiration will place
the young member from the New Haven
District in the advance rank among our Con-
gressional orators. Our own Mr. Hubbard
introduced a resolution a few days since for
an appropriation “for the erection of some
suitable public Bulldifig for the better ac-
commodation of Federal office-holders in the
rapidly growing and thriving'city of Bridge-
port." The motion was undoubtedly made
with an honest purpose, yet it seemed to re-
, . with: little more than provoking the merri-

‘ ‘ment of listening members, who of course

could have no adequate knowledge of the
really rapid strides in growth and prosperity,
made by our sister and Queen City of Fair-
field County.

The Appropriation Bill and private Cal-
nnder have received a due degree of consid-
eration. While the most important matters

. pending before Congress have not been
I'T.‘ " "ed.
news of the reelection of Senators
subull and Nye has been received here

 

, {with more than ordinary interest. Espec-

t'rfally is this true in reference to the return of

Gen. Nye. A private despatch reached some
of his friends, a few minutes before nine
o'clock on Thursday evening. At precisely
.riinelthe Reporters telegraphed back their
congratulatibns, which sped its electric
. flight array up among the glistening 'silver

'2 ”‘mouutains of far ofi-Nevada, and was put

into the" hands of our successful friend at

The Bridge Question.
By the vote of the Town meeting of last
Saturday, the new bridge at South Norwalk
will be completed for public travel on the lat
of June next. It seems that some delay was
apprehended owing to the slow process of col-
lecting the tax laid last Spring, and the meet-
ing decided not to wait for its collection, but
ordered the Selectmen at once to borrow-the
$25,000 heretofore appropriated for that ob-
ject. It is understood flint- the piles and
lnmliu' for the structure ale Illl'i'titl)'gl)l out,
and prepared, and us soon as the harbor is
open the work will be begun and pushed rap;

Ont—Mr. Edwin Heyt of_ Stamford has
filed a caveat in the patent ofiice for a new
Illuminating Oil, which he is now introdu-
cing largely throughout the country, which
he claims will, as soon as its merits become
known by the public, supercede Kerosene,
and in many cases even Gas, as it is very
much cheaper than either ; is non-explosive,
gives a brilliantJight and lasts longer than
kerosene, all of which will tend to bring it
into general favor with a discriminating pub-
lic. Having seen the Oil in “5., we should
think it would pay well to invest in indi-
vidual or Store rights, which are sold at
quite a low figure. '

WONDERFUL AND VALUABLE Invasrrbxh
—A-large number of gentlemen—members
of the Legislature, officers of Fire Insurance?
~and Railroad Companies."Fire Engineers,
Selectmen'and Others—met of Watertown
yesterdgyl afternoon to witness a test trial of
a new re , Extinguisher, which has just
been introduced. A building about ‘12 feet.
square had been erected for the purpose near
the residence of Mr. Jesse A. Loke. There
were bunks along the walls filled with show
vings, and a quantity of light firewood had;
been — distributed ‘ in different parts. 00].-
Daniel Needham, President of the Company‘
requested the assemblage to' select an impar-l'
tial committee, to-see that. the test was a {sin

 

 

ing, and'to give the word for the Extinguish-
er to play. The meeting nominated Séth
Bemis of Witertown, Dr. George B. Luring
of Salem. Wm. H. Salisbury of Lawrence and’
George B. Eaton, Chief of the Fire Depart-.
'ment of Cambridge. This committee direct-
ed the shavings and inner sides of the build--
ing and the firewood to be saturated with.
petroleum. After this was done the build},
ing was fired. The flames spread rapidly,
and burstrout on all sides. The committee
then , ordered the firemen to play. The
flames were completely extinguished in one

little portable upri‘ght cylinder. which is car-
ried on the back 0 a man. A small India
Rubber tube, which he holds in his hand,

fluid, is connected with it. The fluid is wa-,
ter impregnated with carbonic acid gas. Al- ‘,
the ames,’they disappeared as rapidly Isa ,
barrels were then fille with shavin s and.
fired. ..A, young boy. (a son or Mr. pets)
with a toy engine, extinguished the fire in C's.“
few seconds. Some of the bystanders w‘ere
