The work of the legislature just elected,
around which the most interest wrll vrobu-
, bly center, will be the election of a mtcd
States Senator. The election of Judges Will
also excite some attention. Most of the
other important business of the session 18 not
new tothe ublic. There will be the pet:-
tion of the shore Line railroad for a bridge
at Saybrook, of the Air Line road for a
bridge at or near Middletown, and of sun-
dry grouty individuals who can’t run the
2\"ew,York road, for a parallel road from
Derby to the state line—New Ham Palladmm
' WThe Palladium’a fiing at the Derby &
Z. State Line Road is unworthy a journal of
i 5 character and enterprise. Nobody wants
:to run the New York & New Haven road as
‘ ' “we know. Commodore Vanderbilt has a
majority interest in that corporation and
'l-e knows how to run it, if not for the public
convenience and benefit, at least for his own
emolument. We do not own stock in it, as
the Hilladt'um Editor does, yet we trust so
'slightapecuniary- consideration would not
prejudice our action in behalf of any meas-
ure which we know, and which thePalladi-
+1 m knows would result in incalculable bene-
. cit to the State. We have no wish to injure
' the. franchisee or vested rights of any owner
, hithe- New Haven road, yet majorities must
gOvel-n in this Republic and the interests of
the few must become subservient to the in-
terests of the many.
From the first inception of the New York
road its control and chief ,‘direction has
been in democratic hands. All during the
war for the preservation of the government,
its conduct in reference to wounded soldiers
and the. passage of troops was simply dis-
graceful. At every election in Ct, its pow~
era and capacities to swell the democratic
nmjorit-ies are ever stratified to the utmost
limit, and yet-'we have no opposition to thab
_. concern on such account.
If a company of men can use the money of
indifferent and innocent stockholders in the
furtherance of measures these owners deem
. prejudicial to the public weal, that is no ex-
cuse for a deprecation of their hard earned
dollars so invested. All such arguments be-
little the claims and purposes 'of the men
who, as unselfishly as ever men wrought for
any public measure have your after year be-
sought a Connecticut Legislature to grant
them the poor privilege of expending five
millions of dollars among the people of' the
State and adding to our grand list in' the
.v' ay of taxation upon property augmented
.‘uuri‘ould in valuation, at least five millions
more. Should a new road be chartered-and
.quipped within- the next two years there
2-. cold still be left ten am... the business the
2.x. road didinthe first year ofits existerTcE
The new road could not and is not expected
to seriously compete with its through travel.
I he New York road would continue to be,
as it is now, the sole and only artery or duct
in drain all New England of passengers and
(night through to New York. But in local
business it would, as something should, com-
,eetc. We have already lost, at a low esti-
m..te, eight to ten thousand in population,
which this county might and should have
had, could we have afforded equal facilities
iih New Jersey for the il‘equent and rapid
_.-a.ssage of passengers into and from the
,z‘rrat city. Once look at it. From Bridge-
,1.)er New York by the proposed parallel
stud, a distance of only about fifty miles,
.‘t‘ie distance is shortened nearly m'm mules!
:‘roln Norwalk it is shortened seem miles.
"in dispensing with all draw bridges and
pursuing an air line, Stamford is but thirty-
_-5 m! minutes from New York. Norwalkfor—
., all-fee, and Bridgeport one hour ! Ins’t this
worth stirring for above all personal, mean
and selfish interests 2 On its bare merits it
i. well known the charter for the new road
would be easily procured. It is‘ only because
:he New York road has grown rich and
powerful out of its long enjoyed monopoly
,nd exhorbitaut rates of fares, extorted from
our. people that it is able to defeatit, by re-
mixing a horde of paid lobbyists, by free
:Ecketing the press, and other arts well-
3.nown to the great railroad monarch of
America. ' As well mighta Bank, or charter-
ed manufacturing company, assert exclusive
might to run as that of any railroad corpora-
non. . ..
Let not this Legislature disgrace itself by
refusing at leaist a General Railroad Law,
such as exists in New York, Ohio, and other
states, whereby any company who can raise
and pay out the money, may build a. rail-
road as they may build a. steamboat, when.
ever and wherever it can be found to obtain
so much. of the public favor as to promise it
a support. Liberty in all things, monopolies
.in nothing, if Connecticut is to attain her
highest prosperity and development.

Tun-ed Walks.
An abundant experience proves beyond a
doubt that the modern tarred and gravelcd
walks are far dryer and better in all respects
than either flagging or brick. We'trust our
people will have these walks run across the
Church green where the walks are peculiarly
exposed to action of frost and water. Upon
the New Haven Common and ' also in City
Hall Park, New York, these walks have been
adapted in preference to any other. The
snow and ice readily clears oil“ and there
is no such thing as slipping in winter. We
hope «yr new Bank folks and Messrs. Corn-
wall and Weed will join us in putting down
this walk from the corner to GAZETTE Build-
ing. The durability and elacticity of these
walks are also a marked advantage.

WThei-e are this season, contrary to usu-
al custom, several candidates on the Repub-
lican side for the position of Clerk of the
House. It has heretofore. generally been the
practice of advancing the Assistant Clerk
to the Clerk's desk. 'We think the practice
a good one as the House thereby each year
secures an experienced official who is ac-
quainted with the usual routine of business
and therefore is of more real practical bene-
fit than an entirely green hand could be. In
this view of the ease we are pleased to see
that. Dwight aMarcey, Esq., Assistant Clerk
of the last legislature has the inside track
and will probably secure the coveted honor.
Mr. Marcey has been a very efficient and
hard working member of the State Commit-
serving of the position.

VAN Annexe}! & Co’s GREAT GOLDEN
MENAoEan.——Somc idea of the magnitude
and extent of this exhibition, which is to be
in Norwalk, on the 1st of May, may be form-
en, firom the fact that it requires a lot four
hundred and fifty feet in length by one hun.
dred and fifty feet in width, for the erection
of its canvas. One hundred and fifty
eight horses are necessary to convey it from
point to point, and forty two dens and wag-
ons are requisite to transfer the exhibition
fi'om one town to another. The outfit for
this establishment is entirely new having
been constructed in New York city during
the winter season. The chariots, vans and
cages, are all ornamented, so say the descrip-
tive bills, with beautiful illustrations of the
Holy Scriptures, after the designs of the eel.
ebrated French artist Gustave Dore. Many
of the animals are entirely new to this coun-
try, and are now on exhibition for tlie'first
time in America. Among these may be men-
tioned the great African Eland, the Water
Buffalo, the Grunting Ox, of Tartary, and the
White Zebra. Our ”readers will remember
that there is no circus connected with this
exhibition. '

declared each a one Lundred dollar dividend, any

how much more the Mutual Life’s dividend would be

that he did not know. We claim, that if one half on-

for the other half, that although they are “limited by
law" to eight per-eent., thcyin reality receive much

In your issue of this da‘e is found
"a simple incident of domestic discomfort, he," in
which it is stated that ”he. with scores similarly serv-
ed, has our sympathy, our condolence, our tears &c.”
It is well that tears should be lhcl for the loss of so
valuable a friend and neighbor as the gentleman men-
tioned in the communication, but it will no doubt
surprise him as much as his present neighbors to
know that all this sympathy, condoleneeand tears
are for his benefit.
This reminds one of the daughter who having mar-
ried and about to leave the homestead, for a neigh-
boring village wne Weeping her farewell in her moth—
ers arms. Her mother in tears expressed her sympa-
thy for her daughter, who immediately exclaimed
in gravest astonishment "Why Me! I thought ya:
were crying because you could not go too.”

--We have ourselves both seen and heard a
large instrument of the above manufacture,
which has been purchased by the Congrega-
tional Society of this place. It is a suerror
instrument in the mechanical perfection
of its various parts, and in the resemblance
of its tones to those of a pipe organ, it is
superior to any we have ever heard. , It
contains 5 sets of reeds and 14 stops, and is_
capable of a great variety of expression, its
softest tones being beautifully sweet and
pure, while the stronger tones are delight-
fully fiill and sonorous. The reeds are
so voiced that there is a marked difference
in the quality of the tones of each set, and
by this improvement .difi‘erent qualities of
tone can be used when desired, and when the
whole are combined, a richer, grander vol-
ume of tone is produced than can baby other
instruments not thus voiced. [lie but just
that we should any that this Organ was se-
lectedfb the committee, after a careful study
and tria of the most celebrated reed organs,
and is believed by them to possess more of
the requisites to keep up a good instrument,
thari any other kind of organ manufactured.

near White Hall, Del. 00., Pa., during the term of
five years.
The returns are the cash receipts, after deducting
the purchase of only the feed and seed. The number
of cows are added to show, list: That a considerable
amount of cash has been expended in thispurchass.
id: That afarm can gardually dispense or diminish
with the purchase of fertilizers, by increasing its home
reduction of manure: The cash returns of 1861 show
how poor the 60 acres were before using the Phoslutte.
To the last cash account of 1565. and to the value of
the number of cores, should be added the.very large
increase of fodder and manure, and the greatly in-
creafed fertility of the soil. .

“ * '-‘ You will see by the performance of Cation,
they are of great endurance that you can vouchc for
by Old Razor Strap. You will see how hard Lord
Scarborough ran Cation. Somedmes 4 miles to-day,
and tour miles to—morrow, you must not foruci. that
two Trester Colts troted twenty miles within are hour
and the owner of one them otI'ered to trot him twcniy-
one miles within the hour, but his friends would not
agree to it. The opposite party said there was no
other Trustee Colt that could perform the feat, Trus-
tcedr. was prepared and got ready, but the party
thought best to back out. Trustee J r., has always
taken the first Premium on Exhibition at any fair. I
was raised within. ten miles of Lord Scarborough'e
Sanbeek Park. and can vouch for truth. I was well
acqnnlnted with the groom that had the charge of Cat-
ton when old and retired from the turf.
