Legislature.
The memorable Legislature of 1867, has
closed its weary labors, and the members
have by this time safely reached their long
deserted homes. The customary amount of
lollypop closed uptlic session, the Speaker
getting a silver pitcher and the Lieut. Gov-
ernor a gold headed cane. Our own City
Charter was left for consideration next year.
Meriden getting ahead of as. We hope an
intelligent examination of the matter will se-
cure it a unanimous support another year.
The Derby & State Line Railroad was re-
ported upon adversely to the House, very
much to the delight of that monster corpo-
ration, the N. Y. & N. H. R. R , and to the
regret of every friend of progress and of ad-
vancement in the state. Some'queer, many
unusual, and more important,measures have
been considered and adopted. Perhaps we
ought to be thankful for what evil the Legis-
lature did not do as well as for the good it
did accomplish, considering its compnsition.
We presume we shall have our ears deafen-
ed next year with the cry of “long session,”
extravagant use of public money,&c., by our
copper friends, next spring. Pure souls,they
did all they could to prolong the session, and
in violation of both parlimentary honor and
decency repeatedly stampeded so as to ad-
journ the House for want of a quorum.—
Glad that it is at an ’cnd, we refer to the
printed report for a more detailed account of
the closing proceedings. .

has been subject to more “spells" the past
week than we most ever knew it. How our
farmers have managed .to dodge its fickle
freaks in securing their Rye, Oats and Hay,
is more than we can conjecture. As there
is still a large quantity of bay down, we are
confident there will be “musty fodder” for
the bovine and equine race the coming win-
ter. July has been more like an old fash-
ioned dog-day August than the bright and‘
sunny month, the poets rant about. On
Thursday afternoon a rain storm unaccom-
panied with thunder or hail broke down
upon us with an intense violence of wind,
which demolished fences, corn and grain
and uprooted numerous trees. Several fish-
erman got capsized in our harbor, but we
hear of no serious disaster.

PAINFUL Accrnnnr.—-Rev. Mrs. Williams
while proceeding to the depot at South Nor-
walk, last week, was struck in the face by
one of those inhuman devices of cruelty
known as :1 “Regulation ball,” which some
boys were throwing in the streets. The
bones of Mrs. Williams’ nose were crushed
and her eye badly bruised, but its sight not
entirely destroyed, as currently reported.
The accident is a very painful one and ex-
ceedingly aggravating by reason of the little
excuse for half playing (with these abomina-
tions scarce less hard than a hand grenade
and quite as dangerous to the party struck),
in our public thoroughfares. We have re-
peatedly observed near the depot, the barest
hairbreadth escapes from injury to people
and teams by this reprehensible practice and
we trust the young men will hereafter re-
tire to some less public place for their out-
door sports. Wc think, furthermore, that
every decent ball Club ought to have the
courage to discard this abominable “Regu-
lation Ball" as a cruel device, unworthy a
civilized communityr Two boys have been
killed, and any number of persons wounded
this summer, and this popular and com-
mendable out-door sport ought not to be
marred by any such cruel and useless record.

St. Mary’s Church.
At 4 o'clock,Sunda'y afteriioon,the Corner
Stone of the new St. Mary's Church, now
in the course of erection on the corner of
Chapel street and West Avenue was laid,
and the consecration of the foundations ob-
served with all the imposing ceremonies of
the Catholic Church. There were present
on the platform the Bishop and a number of
participating clergyman. An awning Was
spread over a range of benches and seats,
the American flag surmounting all. The
derrick was placed in position and the box
for a deposit in readiness, when the members
of that society and large numbers of our
leading citizens of Protestant faith, ascend-
ed the platform and passed in procession,
giving in their several contributions in aid of
the enterprise. ,
The ceremonies of the day began by the
imposing service of a solemn High Mass,
celebrated comm epz'iicopo, in the old church,
by Rev. L. Daly of New Britain, who acted
as High Priest, assisted by Rev. P. Murphy,
of Bridgeport, as deacon, and Rev. M. Clune
of Norwalk, as sub-deacon, Rev. E. J. O’
Brien of New Haven, discharging the office
of Master of Ceremonies. Alter the singing
of the Gospel oi the day by the deacon, the
Right Rev. Bishop, ascending the steps of
the altar, delivered a sermon, wherein'fhe en
couraged the Catholics of Norwalk to apply
themselves in earnest to the noble work
which they had undertaken, showing them
in aclear and forcible manner, how they
should esteem the privilege of beingallowcd
to raise a temple to the Most High and Im-
mense Godhead, whom the heavens and
earth cannot contain, and for whom man
would not have dared erect a house of habi-
tation, had he not been explicitly directed by
God Himself to do so. Notwithstanding
the extreme heat of the day, the discourse,
which was solid and impressive, was listened
to throughout with the most patient atten-
tion.
A very long procession was formed on
Chtpcl street composed of St. Joseph’s Be.
nevolcnt Society, St. Mary's Total Absti-
nence Society, The Cadets of Temperance,
Sunday School Children and adult members
and a Society from Westport, in vari-
ous regalia. This body marched around into
West Avenue, deploying back into Chapel
street via. the platform. West Avenue
and adjacent houses were filled with inter-
ested spectators and altogether there could
not have been less than 2500 people present.
The Norwnlk Band played two soft and me-
lodious airs, when admouislied by a rapidly
approaching storm the Bishop briefly ad-
dressed the concourse, reviewing the prog-
ress made by his church in Connecticut and
especially in Norwalk, concluding by an ap-
peal to all good catholics to be faithful to
their vows, to be faithful to every duty and
to God, and while laboring so worthily in
building up their church, he entreated them
to labor also to educate themselves in every
other virtue and goodness.
' In the corner stone were deposited copies
of the Norwalk Gazette, Bridgeport Farmer,
New Haven Register, N. Y. Herald, World,
Express and Tribune, N. Y. Tablet and Bos-
ton Pilof, with the current coins of the va-
rious denominations, and the following in-
scription written on parchment.

twenty-one, while his Excellency Andrew
Johnson was president of the United States,
his Excellency James E. English governor
of Connecticut, and the Hon. E. P. Weed
warden of the borough of Norwalk, the Rt.
Rev. F. P. McFarland, Bishop of Hartford,
on the twenty-eighth day of July, at 4 o’clock
p. m., blessed and laid according to the rites
of the Roman Pontifical, in the presence of
Rev. Messrs. Dal of New British, O‘Brien,
oi New Haven, 'Neil oi Samiord, Synnott
of Bridgeport, Tierney of‘ Providence, Gaff-
ney of Stamford, besides a large concourse
of other clergy, and of the fully, this corner
stone of a church to be erected to the honor
and glory of Almighty God, under the pat-
ronage of the B. V. Mary, Mother of our
Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, by the care
of the pastor of the parish of Norwalk,Rev.
I’. A. Smith, and his assistant Rev. J. S.
Fitzpatrick, aided in its erection by Messrs.
P. C. Keely and J. Murphy, architects, Chas.
W. English, contractor, and Clark H. Osborn
superintendent; and sustained and support-
ed by the liberality of a pious and devoted
people; on which occasion the Right Rev.
Bishop, delivered an eloquent discourse.
Aside from all sectarian feeling, Father
Smith is certainly deserving the commenda-
tion of every one interested in the architect-
ural adornment of our town. His church
when completed, will be the finest structure
in Norwalk and a standing reproof to the
wealthy Protestant societies who find it so
hard to furnish even comfortable accommo-
dation for their worshiping assemblies. St.
Mary’s church is 142 feet long by 62 1-2. wide,
is built of the beautiful blue ;granite from
Greenwich quarries, trimmed with gray
granite at the openings. It is to have: tall
'and commanding spire and will be a most
beautiful and imposing edifice.

The Neptune Club arrived safely home on
Thursday night last, direct from Edgurtown,
Martha’s Vineyard. 'This club rental at
Rdgartown four days, and the members all
speak enthusiastically of the “good times“
home.” The “Vineyard Gazette," gives the
following report of the doings of this club
in that place :—
“Sabbath afternoon the Club attended di-
vine services in the M. E. Church, where
they listened to a very able sermon from
Gal. 6, 14, delivered by their chaplain,—R_ev.
Willian H. Sinionson. Mr. S. is a pleasin
and convincing speaker, With a good voice
and easy delivery, and has evidently devot-
ed himself earnestly to the work be has
chosen as his life mission. Monday even-
ing an impromptu entertainment at the
Town Hall, (which the Selectmen had gens
erously placed at their disposal Iiree of
charge.) was given. Some fi’ue Singing was
discoursed which the audience as well as
“Neptunes” seemed to enjoy hugel . . Rev.
Mr. Simonson, in his closing remar 8, thank-
ed the people for the kindness and courtesy
experienced at their hands, and assured
them that the members of the club onuldIal-
ways cherish the memories of this VISII.
About half past ten the exercises closed, the
“Neptunes” giving three heart cheers for
the people of Edgartown. 8 hope to see
them again another year."
The Ocean club arrived home early Satur-
day morning, having madc a more extended
trip. From Nantucket they went to Ed-
gartown, with the Neptunes, where they re-
mained until Monday, enjoying among oth-
er things thc wild and exciting sport of surf
blue fishing. Sunday Evening the club at.
tended services at the Congregational
church, their chaplain, Rev, Dr. Childs,
preaching. On Monday they sailed for
New Bedford, a very pleasant city on “the
continent,” and from thence to ever-attract-
ive Newport, where two days were very
agreeably spent in viewing the attractions
01 the quaint. “old" city, the style and cle-
gance of the "new" city, Fort Adams, the
harbor and sea shore, and in sea bathing,
riding, walking, &c. The old sports and
young Winkle's of the party enjoyed hugely
a few hours of black-fishing, in which they
met with grand success, at Cuttyhunk.
The members of both clubs seem to have
thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and are de-
lighted with their reception by the pceople
of the places they visited.

The School Exhibition.
The exhibition by the pupils of the Cen-
ter District School, came 011‘ at Lockwood’s
Hall, on Thursday and Friday evenings last.
The attendance was large the first evening,
and still larger the last evening, the Hall be-
ing uncomfortably full. The exercises pass-
atious delays occurring to annoy the audi-
ence. The performances gener illy were
very good, especially so, considering the fact
that it was the first appearance of most of
the children on the public stage. It was ev-
ident that the teachers and pupils had given
much time and labor in preparing for the ex-
hibition, and the success which crowned their
efforts must have been very gratifying to all
concerned. ' The receipts, we are informed,
amounted to $215; the expenses were $67—
leaving a balance of $148 for the benefit of
the School Library. '

A l’aris correspondent writes that the new
and wonderful pump of the Norwalk Iron
Works receivcdithc prize of a bronze medal.
‘ Full particulars have not yet been received.
The correspondent of the Tribune thus
sensibly writes concerning certain American
inventions that have failed of notice, on ac-
count of having no one to look after them
to explain their properties and portray their
merits :—
“A vast deal has been said about incompetence
of those wwhom was intrustcd the general manage-
ment of the American department. esterday, when
a number of persons came to see the Corliss Engine
which has received a gold medal, and were surprised
to find an ordinary French engine turning all the
machinery of the American Department, and by its
side that superb American turningnothing at all. I011
in airy I found that Mr. Bigefow and Mr. Beckwith
ha made this contract, wit iont consultation, wrthIa
French engineer and refused to try even to have it
changed. Mr. Bigelow is said to lmvc remarked :
"It is better to have our machinery wcllmovcd by a
French En ine than ill moved by an American one,"
to which r. Pickering, of New York, who was re-
monstrntinn replied that he thought: that French
engines had’hcst exhibit thcirsu erlority, if they had
any, in their own department. ‘hey have also set to
attend to all the grou s of American articles a set; of
French peo lc of the owcr class who are utterly ig-
iiornnf. of t ie things they are exhibiting, and know
only a rude kind of French language. 11 it were not
for some of our exhibitors themselves, no informa-
fion‘would ever be got about anything in the Amer-
ican Department. But although there has been stov-
'cnliness and stupidit in the superintendcnec, there
has been a great deal ost b 'the carelessness or per-
versity of some exhibitors t cmselves. Some people
in America seem to think that they have only to box
up a new machine and dire-2t. it to the Paris Exhibi—
tion, without pending at all that any one should
be on hand to explain what the superiority or pegu-
liarlty of their machine is. Here are two coitop girl:
from Bridgewater, one of which is as beautifuI a
machine all ever saw, and apparently a variation
from the ordinary gin ; but there is nobody in the
exhibition who can give an account of it, and the
jury, of course, could only pass it by. A Mr. Hard-
ing has sent a handsome little Curding Machine all
the way from Biddeiord, Maine, and air. Prouty. a
maker of leather carders from Worcester, Mass ; but
they might as well have kept them at home, or in-
vented brains and voices for them to explain them-
selves b . The Kingdom of Austria has done much
in this xhlbition simply by the perfection of Its
arrangements for giving information and explana-
tionnt every point. They have actually set if tllciil'

flFThc Galdey for August, has an article
which sums up, with a good deal of force,
the principal events in the history of the sew-
ing machine. It declares that this most
useful of all modern inventions is a product
of the genius of one Walter Hunt, who be-
fore 1834 had made in New York city a
“sewing machine in which an eye-pointed
needle and a shuttle were successfully eni-
ploycd to make the interlocked sticli." Hunt
sold his invention and the right to patent it
to one Aaron Smith, who, becoming involv-
ed in pecuniary diflicultlcs neglected to se-
cure his right to it, In 1846, twelve years
after Walter Hunt had built and successfully
operated the first sewing machine, Elias
Howe obtained his first patent Subsequent-
ly Hunt endeavored to patent his invention,
but the Commissioner of Patents decided
that as he had allowed more than tWo years
to elapse after such sale before applying for
a patent lie was debarred by the act of 1839
from obtaining a patent. The writer of the
article alluded to in commenting upon the
application of Elias Howe for a second ex-
tension of his patent rights says that since
his profits amount to nearly two millions of
dollars “it would seem that he ought to be
satisfied." It adds :-—-"11 Congress (It'SIl'CS to
bestow a gratuity for sewing machines, let
them give it. to the heirs of Walter Hunt.—
The proofs are ample and couclustve that he
was the first inventor of the sewing machine
which is now so popular, and from which,
as modified and improved by many other in-
ventors, the country and the world are now
receiving such measurcless advantages.”

SGHBNGK’S MAN DRAKE PILL.
A Certain Cure for Diseased Liver and file
many Dangerous Maladies winch are caused
bye morbid condition of that organ.
'I‘O give the public a clear understanding of the
mode in which SCIIENCK’S Mandrake Pills
produce these wonderful effects which are attested by
thousands of reliable witnesses, we present a brief
DESCRIPTION OF THE HUMAN LIVER
and its functions, which will n13k04th0 operation of
this popular medicine perceptible to every man’s un-
derstanding.
The liver is supplied with blood vessels, nerves
and absorbants. One of its obvious uses is to se-
crete and prepare the bile. It likewise filters. the
bloodIand separates that fluid from all impurities.
llow indispensably necessary to health is the proper
performance of this function 1 If the liver is diseas-
ed, it cannot purify the blood, and if that is sent
back through the lungs, brain and other parts in a
morbid condition, it must cause jaundice, bilious-
ness, obstruction of the kidneys, nravcl, and many
other complaints more or less painl‘iil and dangerous
but the least of them quite enough to make a man
sick and uncomfortable, and unfit for the perform-
ance of any of the duties of life. Thisnnhcalthy state
of the system very often ends in pulmonary con-
stimption. -
The circulation of the blood is conducted in this
manner — The heart sends the vital current down
through the arteries 3 it passes through the flesh ta-
king up all impurities in its progress; their the
stream of blood flows backward through the veins,
and passes to the liver to be purified. It is im iossi-
hlc to cure consumption, scrofnla, or scarce yany
other kind of ulceration while that important organ,
the liver, is diseased. If: is for that reason that“rcg-
iilar physrcians” rarely cure consumption. They
usually begin their treatment with the use of some
cough medicine, the basis of whichis morphia or
opium in some shape, which locks up the liver iii-
stead of relaxing the secretions, giving a tone to the
stomach, and producing a healthy flow of bile. Dr.
Schenck's
Pulmonz‘c Syrup, Seaweed 107212,sz Mun-
drcke Pills
will_s‘trengthcn the system, purify the blood, and ri-
pen nnd heal ulcers on the lungs.
A volume would be required, to give a brief ac-
count of the remarkable cures performed by Dr.
Schcnck’s medicines, viz. I’nlinonic Syrup, Seaweed
Tonic, arid Mandrake Pills—lull of which are ac-
companied by flill directions for the use of them.
DR. CIIENCK will be professionally at his rooms,
every week 82 Bond St., New York, and 35 Hanover
Street, Boston, from I) a. in. until 3 p. m. lle gives
advice free, but for a thorough examination with
