The Election.
Me. English has be u electcd Governor by
a majority of from three to six- hundred, in
a dis acet‘ullylight Republican vote. The
of all national issues, but more es-
‘pecially the severe storm which prevailed
all day in the eastern and northern portions
of the State, and sctin here at noon, are the
causes which produced this result.
. it is poor consolation to know that our
soar and salt Republicans who never ven-
ture out in a storm, might; and should have
elected Jewell by a thousand majority.
I\' or is it less comforting to know that the
National Administration and Congress could
have givbn usfifteen hundred more Repub-
lican votes, had they been half as zealous
for our success as in annexation schemes.
Governor Jewell has made a magnificent
l‘CCOi’t . lie deserted a triumphant re-election
from the pmpic of Connecticut, irrespective
of party. The Governor can afford the (le-
\feat far better than the tax-payers of the
State. . ‘
In our own Senatorial district we have-to
endure the humilation of a loss from last
ytar of a hundred and fifty on Governor,
and the election Of “a New York city office-
holder, by a majority of over fourlmndrcd,
when Major Hoyt deserved rc-election by
two hundred and fifty majority. The con—
test here, however, was unprecedented, and
these Republicans who did not desert their
fiag worked with an ardor which saved us
1
from total rout. All praise to such as rev
fused. to bow their knee to Bacl. ‘
The Legislature is stronger Republican
than last. year, despite the disgrace of the
old 12th. Ex-Senator Fosteris elected Rep-
1‘ r‘ativc from Norwich arid wi l probably
be c rsen Speaker. Eaton is elected in the
House from Hartford, and will contest with
James II. Olmstead, of Stamford, for the
leadership of the Democratic forces. Gen.
Pratt is returned from W'ethersfieltl. I‘Vith
the. unusually large number of statesmen
and craters returned by both parties, a long
session may be looked for and an increase
of the tax-payers burdens.
PCSI‘SCRIPT!
‘We learn that an error in the name on
the Democratic ballots has been discovered
”at the \‘t'oodward vote in New Canaan, to
the extent of 225. Should it be found that
these false tickets have been voted elsewhere,
his election may yet be injcopardy. Who
supplied these tickets? \ '

The Republicans of the First Voting Dis-
trict worked like beavers yesterday and are
deserving of all praise. Notwithstanding
the desperate cfi'orts of the opposition, the
unusual combinations and conspiracies to
defeat them, they succeeded in holding their
own on the State Ticket, giving the same
majority as last year. .

Whatever complaint may justly be made
against the fidelity of certain South Nor-

fairness must be affirmed of those that re-

“ Woody” around like captives in the train

The Tenth animal meeting of the Bible
Society of Norwalk and its vicinity, was
held at the Baptist church, Sabbath evening.
The attendance was not large on account of
the unfavorable weather. The President,
Rev. Dr. Childs, was absent, and J. W. Hub—
bel, Esq., presided, Revs. Gates, Bisscll,
Simmons and Hill assisted in the services.
The Secretary, Rev. 0. IV. Gates, read the
annual report, which was followed by timely
and interesting addresses by Rev. W. H.
Gilbert, agent of the American Bible Society,
and Rev. Dr. Ray Palmer, of New York.
Officers were elected for the year ensuing
. as follows :—Dr. Asa Hill, President; J. W.
Hubbcll, Vice-Presi; Rev. I. Simmons, Sec;
Dr. J. E. Barbour, Treas.
A resolution highly complimentary to
Rev. Mr. Gates, who has been Secretary of
the Society for the past eight years, was
passed unanimously.
Republican Meetings. _
Our friends at Wilton had a good meeting,
despite the disappointment occasioned by
Secretary Gorham’s inability to fill his ap-
pointment. Major Hoyt made an effective
address, and Seneca Howland fully supplied
the absent speaker’s place.
At South Norwalk, one of the most glo-
rious meetings of the Campaign was held
on Friday evening. Prof. Cyrus Northrop
gave one of his quiet, eloquentmnd effective
addresses ; Senator Hoyt made a very car-
nest and sensible appeal, when the speech of
the evening was made by Gen. Bruce, bf
New York. His arraignment of the De-
mocracy on their record for the last ten
years was perfectly fearful. Gen. Bruce has
few equals and no 'superiors as a popular
and cfl'ective‘spcakcr. -
The General and Major Hoyt addressnd a
large and enthusiastic meeting at Greenwich,
Saturday evening.
Col. Belford, of Indiana, delivered a. pow-
erful address at Lockwood’s Hall, on Satur-
d-ty evening, which was enthusiastically rc-
ccivcd. In this connection we cannot rc-
frain from mentioning the misery caused
the Colonel by the large chandalicr with its
score of burners, blazing full in the speak-
ers eyes. It ought to be removed without
another. day’s delay. It is an abomination
to speaker and audience.
At the conclusion of Co]. Belford’s master-
ly effort; the meeting was held in.,good hu-
mor by various diversions, including a ring-
ing appeal by our young friend Townsend,
of South Norwalk, :1 rehersal of inimitable
Western stories by the Colonel, again, un'
til the express train brought Gen. Bruce
from Greenwich, who ended our meeting at
stirring appeals, and the campaign closed in
this Senatorial district with the determina-
tion to deserve success, and win it, too, if hard,
sharp, and earnest work could do it. The
old 12th was seldom, if ever, so thoroughly
aroused. The contest will be a severe one.
W Gen. Ferry reached home last week,
and is in better health than when he left for
Washington last fall. We understand that
he proposes to rehrain at home for some
days. The announcemert that he was to
speak at Lockwood’s Hall, was made on the'
knowcledge of the fact that he had spoken
the last night: before election, except when
absent in the army, for about the last twenty
years. His inability to be out at night pre-
vented his indulgence in his old custom.

WMaj. Gen. George H. Thomas, in our
umble judgement, among military men,
the “ noblest Roman of them all,” has gone
to his rest. Robust and stalwart, he was
our fellow guest at the Lick House, during
our brief visit to San Francisco. Of him it
was,wc once heard Secretary Stanton affirm,
pointing him out in a, crowd at the White
House, “There is the man to whom this na-
tion owes a greater debt of gratitude than
to any otherliving." Peace to his ashes and
ever to be revered his noble worth and
memory.
Mr. Dana of the Sun, who knew him in-
timately says :—“Truth, modesty, bravery,
fidelity, disinterestedness, dignity, sound
judgement, unqualified patriotism, freedom
from vanity and superiority to all seductions,
generosity of heart and elevation Of mind,
were the qualities of George H. Thomas——
He was indeed a. great: man.”

Norwalk Gazette was printed by steam for
the first time this week. Judging from the
wide-awake, brisk, busy, newsy appearance
of that sheet, we supposed it had always
gone by steam.— Winsted Herold.
WLiterally speaking such has been the
fact until . recently. So long as our old
wheelman, Prof. Wm. Brennan stood by
our press, we could always depend upon his
steam power. But the. steam dispensed to
poor Billy at three cents a drink by our rc-
tail dealers,ultimatcly proved too much for
his boiler and engine, and after substituting
him with various success, we have had to
supply his place with another of cast iron
and steel, while poor Billy retires to the
Town Farm to rum-mate over departed
powers and glories. '

The anniversa'ry exercises of this Division
take place this Tuesday evening. The meet:
ing wiit open at half-past seven O’clock, and
all members and visitors of the Society are
invited to attend. ,
Prominent members of the Order from
abroad have been invited to be present and
promised to do so. The ” Son of Temper-
ance” wco wrote “A Frw Words to the
Veteran," is expected to give a history of the
Division.
We are pleased to note these indications
of the Division’s success. Six new members
were admitted last Friday evening, making
nineteen in the past three weeks. They are
working in a good cause, we therefore re-
gret that this Anniversary Entertainment
had not been thrown open to the public at
large, for we believe it would have added
much force tothc interest now felt in this
cause and their Society.
(‘ncning of the Barton Seminary.
On Tuesday evening last the Directors of
the Daricn Seminary held the first reception
in that new and elegant buifing which is
to become without doubt the Alma Mater”
Of many youthful minds.
“’0 were greatly pleased with, and not a
little surprised at, the interesting entertain-
ment with which Miss Emily 11 Rice, the
Principal, favored the many friends of edu-
cation,who quite filled the parlors of the
Seminary. ' .
It was a source of great pride to the Di-
rectors and Stockholders of the Institution,
to see the prospect of an early realization of
their hopes and the successful opening of
What we can safely prophecy will be a thor-
oughly good school.
Miss Rice hasa charming dignity, and in
welcoming the friends who greeted her on
Friday evening, did so with a cordial man-
ner which quite impressed us that she was
the “ right person in .the right place.”
The efficient corps of teachers ,shc has
associated with her is another proofthat she
fully intends that parents shall not be ob-
liged .to send their children elsewhere to in—
sure to them their successful education.
Miss H. L. D. Potter who has made reading
a specialty, teaches that Department in the
Seminary, rendered several pieces in a truly
artistic style, thereby not only pleasing.
those present, but guaranteeing the highest
success for pupils“ in that branch.
Miss Graziella Ridgcway, who has charge
of the Music, quite electrified those present,
with her brilliant execution and her pleas-
ing address. She has already an enviable
reputation as a. vocalist, having sung with
the best artists in many of our large cities,
and all who 'hcard her on Friday evening
were well satisfied, and we doubt if there is
an opportunity in any other Seminary for
pupils to become as proficient in music.
Miss Davis, MissGoodman and Miss Carl-
,ton, also teachers, greatly assisted Miss Rice
in making the evening pass pleasantly. .
We advise all parents to visit this Semin-
ary, before sending their children elsewhere,
and it is to be hoped that: Miss Rice will
soon favor her friends with another enter-
tainment similar to that of Friday evening-

W Elbert Raymond and Harvey Fitch
are putting in heavy plate windows in their
new Main Street Stores. The Old GAZETTE
was the first to introduce Plate Glass win-
dows in ,Norwalk, and aside from their
beauty they have proved to be cheaper, from
their greater strength and durability to say
nothing of their greater beauty. We regret
to learn teat three of their largest plates,
worth ahundrcd dollars apiece, were found
broken when unboxcd. The sizes of these
gorgeous plates were—5 ft 6x8ft 6.

ICE—As spring is nearly half gone it is
safe to say that our Ice Dealers have no
chance of increasing their crop of Ice.' The
amount secured is much smaller than usual.
In Not-walk our dealers have done their
best, but have failed to gather their full' sup-
ply. What they have secured, necessitated
heavy outlays of money,—thc crop costing
more than four times the mural price. Our
dealers secin desirous of making their prices
as low as they can afford, and to accommo-
date their customers as', much as possible.
In New York city, dealers have decided to
charge $1.00 per 100 lbs. at retail, with spe-
cial rates to butchers and other large con-
sumers, and their rates will probably be
adoptbd by dealers in the shore towns, of
this State.
