The Ca use.
We appeal to every Republican to exert
in behalf of our ticket whatever of personal
effort be may be able, il'om this time to the
election, on Monday, April 4th, If the
record made during the last , ten years by
the great party of Liberty and Equal Rights,
be cherished by those who through sacrifice
and sutl‘ering aided in making up its sublime
history, that record is still worth being main-
tained untarnished. No politicalparty in our
country’s history ever achieved such a grand
triumph in the interests ofhumanity and good '
government. We have no fears that its
earnest adherents are to be invcigled through
any machinations of our adversaries to de-
sert the standard now. We are aware that
all the arts and intrigues of a desperate and
dissolute party will be put into . requisition
in the coming contest. Money is to be their
chief instrumentality. The treasurics of
New Haven, Middletown and Tammany
Hall are all to be drawn upon to compass
our defeat, but with energetic resolution and
determined want: from now till election, the
overthrow of the corrupt democracy will be
even more signal this year than it was last.
Senator noyt.
We observe the Republican journals
throughout the State are- exceptionably
hearty. in their Commendations of our can-
didate for Senator .from the 12th District.
Major Hoyt, although a young man, is an
able, earnest and considerate champion of
our cause, and no man from our District has
ever made a more acceptable record in the
Legislature. Awell-trained lawyer, and a
man of superior culture and sound sense,
he is keenly alive to all that interests and
benefits his constituents. Such a'candidate,
the people of the District rarely have ‘an
opportunity to support, and we very gravely.
mistake their intelligence and devotion ‘to
patriotic duty, if he is not rc-elocted this
year by an even greater majority than last.
' Republican Young Men!
Our Republican young men, who com-
prise so large a proportion of our voters
here in Norwalk, have a glorious opportu-
nity this spring to distinguish themselves,
by systematic and effective efi‘ort. “ Young
men for action,” is a proverb in pOint. There
is a grand and glorious field of labor for the
Boys! Forwaed the column!
my: .
W The most encouraging reports come
tons from all parts of the' State. “Gov.
Jewell is better known than last year and
will get a larger vote this” is the' concurrent
testimony from all sections. Jewell and
Victory!

That if your neighbor is lukewarm, indif-
ferent, or has no convenient means of get-
ting to the polls, that he is provided with
such means. “ A word fitly spoken," will
save to our noble cause and noble candidates
many a vote. And see that they vote the
whole ticket! “ Move at once upon the en-
emy’s works i”

Will You tee to it!
That the efi'orts already initiated for swap-
ping 011‘ votes be sqmlched thorn the start-
It is an old dodge of the enemy to promise
votes for Governor for votes for Representa-
tive or Senator, &c. NO true Republican
will be caught in such shallow traps. Vote
the Republican ticket; the full ticket; and
nothing but the ticket. If you would be
true to yourself, you will be true to your
principles and the fairly nominated candi-
dates of your party.

Mvsrnnrons—The Iworkmen in excava-
ting the grounds whereon stood the old
Hotchkiss Homestead, now comprising the
southern terminus of the Lockwood estate,
dug up a skeleton Of unusuaally large pro-
portions. The bones lay about five feet
from the line of the old addition, and what
is most mysterious there was no semblance
of a coffin, and it was not more than ten or
twelve inch‘s from the surface of the ground.
The position would indicate that the body
had either been the subject of some dissect-
ing process, or Iclse when buried had been
bent double, as the skull and feet were to-
gether. It must have lain there for many
years, as when touched the bones separated
‘“ gunning frame, which must have. been that
of a4 very large ism Some fifty years ago
and more this property was used as a hostel-
ry of the baser sort, and whether this‘unex-
. pected exhuming hasbrought to light some
dark deed of crime, we know not. At all
events'it is highly improbable that any
Christian burial could ever have taken place
so close beside a dwelling ' and but a foot
from the surface. Mr. Trubee had the re-
main; carefully boxed and whurind in Pine
Island Burying Ground.

WasmNCTON, March 16th, 1870.
DEAR GazE-rru :——The classic proverb
that “ the Gods grind slow, but they grind
very fine,” has had a most emphatic verifi—
cation in the Senate Chamber to-day. Long
before the hour of meeting, the Senate gal-
leries and corridors were densely filled with
an eager mass of men, women and chil-I
drcn, whereof Ethiope formed no mean com-
poncnt part, all pressing their way to get
within sight or sound of the colored Senator
Revels, who, tO-dny, was to be the first of
his race to lift a voice in such august pres-
ence. Standing upon the Senate floor
(whither we had gained admittance with
many others of the outside fraternity)
and casting the eye about the galleries, there
was something sublime in the eager, intent
look of the populace, there jammed in, a
something grotesque, if not ludicrous in the
perfect abandon with which the must aris»
tocratic of the land, of either sex, sat the
fail hour, sandwiched between some palpi-
tating, perspiring negro or negress, all for-
getful of caste or class, or contact, or odor,
in their intent interest in the grand historic
event.
After the morning hour Senator Morton
had the floor on the Georgia bill, but gave
way to the dark~hucd successor of Jefferson
Davis! Ye Gods! what retribution was
there. Slowly rising, and with evident em-
barrassment, though with complete modesty
and dignity of manner, be commenced to
read his speech. His seat and stand-point-
being close to the northeast door and under
the north gallery, he was reQuested to move
out morc' to the center of the Chamber.
This he did without confusion and proceed-
ed at once, very calmly and with unusually
good produnciation, for a Southerner, to the
delivery of his speech.- _
There was a something in the ton. and
air of the man, more than in anything he
uttered that convinced the listener that he
comprehended the entire situation, and that
every word he uttered expressed the honest
conviction of his heart. In composition the
speech was nearly faultless, and would do
credit to the hearts and heads of many
white men in either body. There were
many sentences truly eloquent, and the Sen-
ator has vindicated, under very peculiar cir-
cumstances, his place among the orato'rs of
Congress. The home reader will find it
more remarkable perhaps, for its freedom
from exaggerationfand bombastic rhetoric,
than for any special power or logical argu-
mentation. That Revels is a man of pow-
er, not even the copperheads in the Senate
will longer deny. Senator Morton’s-remark
at its conclusion, congratulating the Senate
and the nation that in the exchange of J elf.
Davis for the present incumbent, nothing
had been lost in intelligence and much gain-
ed in patriotism, was fitting and just. We,
commend the speech to the reading of all
thoughtful men. It will'not be foundgrcat
or coldly polished, but thoughtful, sincere,
and fully becoming the sublime and historic
occasion.
We could wish that those democrats in
Connecticut, who are just now so terrified
about thenegroes voting at our spring elece
stion, could have listened to it. We sincerly
hope their curiosity, if nb higher motive,
may induce them to read it. But the event
has passed into our mysterious and wonder-
ful national history. The eyes Of the whole
human race will concentrate on the picture.
Wherever the electric wire penetrates, to
the remotest corners of the globe, will it
scatter this speech, made mcmorable and
immortal by its circumstances and suround-
rugs.
Retiring with the crowd that had given the
Senator the grand ovation of tHeir multitu-
dinous presence, we could but contrast our
first, with our last visit to Washington.
Then, on emerging from the cars upon
Pennsylvania Avenue,'our eyes were rivet-
ed upon a company of from forty to sixty
slaves, men, women and children, . bound
with cords by the arms or handcufi‘edby the
wrists, and being hurried forward to. the
Richmond boat. It was our first and most
impressive lesson of the revolting character
of slavery. They were in the keeping of
two brutal looking white men, one of whom
carried under his arm a braided team whip.
There were girls ranging from ten to twen-
ty, and a few women perhaps as old as thir--
ty. They were all verry shabbily clad and
a few of them verging upon indecency.
Unknown to us they had been fellow-pas-
sengers from Baltimore. Not a hundred
rods from theI nation’s capitol, these crea-
tures were thus marched ofi‘ iike a culprit to
the scaffold simply and soley because they
were blrclc ! To-day their race and God,s
immutable laws are vindicated. Through
fire and blood and death agonies, hath come
the achievement. Let every Christian heart
rejoice, that to-day we stand out before the
world, redeemed from this thraldom—A na-
tion that dares do justice and'loves mercy.

WON Monday Evening last, the mem-
bers of “Our‘Brothers Lodge” 1. O. of 0. F.
of this place, enjoyed a most delightful en-
tertainment, together with their wives and
other invited guests, in being permitted to
listen to an address from D. G. M. John W.
Smith, of Waterbury. The speaker’s ad-
dress consisted in giving an account of his
overland trip to California, as a member of
the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows of the
United States. The lecture was exceeding
modest, and unpretending, yet graphic, racy
and most enjoyable. Indeed we have rare-
ly listened to a lecture, more intensely inter-
esting than this. It carried the delighted
audience along over that wonderful country
in a manner that seemed to make them real
participants in all its curious, wonderful
and sublime experiences. We are are great-
ly indebted to our friend Grand Master Col.
P. L. Cunningham, through whose instru-
mentality this delightful entertainment was
secured to us.I This Lecture was a gem in
its way. ' '

or “groceries” at' South Norwalk. On
Thursday two sons of Erin commenced cel-

manner, by drinking exhilerating Poteen.
The stuff proved too much for them and the
serpent that St. Patrick banished from the

in their glasses. The result was that one
man was prostrated dead drunk, stung so
severely that he could not move, and the
brain of the other was ' poisoned so that he
became rum crazy—a raving mad man.
He furiously attacked several persons who
were passing, tearing the coat of from one.

others more or less. He was finally over-

Water for Norwalk. .
In nothing is both Norwalk and South
Norwalk so deficient in as a copious supply
of Water,-—'Water for family, mechanical,
ornamental, and hygienic uses. We are
glad to know that a number of our monied
citizens are waking up to the importance of
this need. Several years since we were at
the trouble and cost of obtaining a charter
for a water company, which owing to the
high prices caused by the war has never
been organized. » Now that labor and mate-
rial are likely to become cheapened we hope
to see the company organized and the good
work commenced. The best stream for the ‘
purpose is Silver Minn River, and the head
Reservoir would probably be located just
above the Daniel’s Mill. This would give
us a head of about 180 feet at the Bridge
spring water of unusual‘urityand could be
brought down without any extraordinary
expense. Asecondary reservoir could be
constructed On the crest of hiliwsst Of the
two villages and thus ensure an unlimited
supply for both sections of the town. In the
mere saving of insurance, and the man sc-
turing‘ where small power was required,
which it would be sure to bring into Nor-
walk "and South Norwalk, it would pay
better than any investment that could pos-
sibly be made.
A VERY LAME DODGE. _
The Democracy, in their nomination of
Senator in this District, have played oif such
a transparent dodge, that we should think
that even their own nominee would see
through it and resent it. Now, _ “ Woody"
is a good, rollicking fellow, enterprising
and liberal in the use of his money, and we
don’t mean to seethim thus put upon with-
out exposing' the fraud. It was weli‘known
to the “ managers ” at their convention that
he did not stand a ghost of _a chance of be-
ing elected Senator in this strongly Repub-
lican District. But then it was currently
supposed that he had a tap on the Tamma-
ny Ring treasury, and with the material aid
thus acquired, they cOuldI so' far debauch the
honest electors of this District, as to catch a
few votes for their State ticket. Now, we
have'no right to object to our fliend Wood-
ward. thus paying his own funeral expenses
in advance, if he enjoys that sort of thing.
But had’his ‘f friends " desired to have done
the fair thing by him, why did they not put
him on their State ticket, as we recommend-
ed, where hc would have had half a chance
to win? But to set him up just to see him
knocked dewn, is too mean, and he must be
excused if he cries out against it.
April loving.
In many towns of the State, we observe
that the old-time practice of making the 1st
of April moving 'day, is being reformed, and
the first day of May substituted. This is
much more conformable to our modernIlife,
and in many respects a very great improve-
ment upon, the old system. Our winters lin-
ger so long in the lap of spring, that colds,
catarrhs, fevers and general discomfort are
sure to result from the April tur'moil. Many
men lose their elective franchise in cOnse-~
queues, and there are no good reasons for
the system. Now is the time to initiate the‘
reform for another year. We observe in
other towns, meetings of landlords have
been held and a general agreement ar-
ranged to rent to May 1st 1871. Who will
introduce the reform here 1’

The lack of ministers in the Congrega-

Litchfield likely to‘be supplied. The latter
church has secured the services of Dr. Hen-

and last onday a meetin .of the Congre-
gational Ecclesiastical socret resulted in.a
vote to hire the Rev. H. B. lliot for two
years at an annual salary of 81,500 and the
use of the parsonage. Mr. Elliot has
preached at Litchfield for several Sabbaths
and appears to be a man of abilityv and
