The Vacancy iii the Supreme Court.
f A large number of lawyers thom different
parts of the State were in the City yesterday
attendin the session of the Unites States
Court. hey informally discussed the mat-
ter of the vacancy in the Supreme Court of
Errors, cruised by the death of Chief Jus-
‘ tice Hinman, and the appointment Of his
. successor by the General Assembl at its
next session. Judge Butler’s continued ill
health has made his election to the position
of Chief Justice highly improbable, and the.
legal gentlemen yesterday were strongly in
favor of the Hon. Layfayette Foster, of
Norwich. They report that such is the sen-
timent of the bar throughout the State. It
was also thought best to recommend the
appointment of an extra judge, and the
Hon. Origen S. Seymour’s name was most
favorably mentioned in that connection.
Both gentlemen will, it is understood, ac-
cept—New Haven Palladium.
{3‘ We presume Judge Seymour would
accept, and we for one, should be glad to
' see him elected because he is a gentleman,
an erudite jurist and a good'Judge. -But
we are loth to believe that ex-Vice President
Foster would be guilty Of the discourtcSy of
supplanting Judge Butler, especially on the
flimsy pretext of Judge Butler’s ill health.
We are assured by those most likely to
know, that the Palladium is in error in its
supposition that such an act of injustice
would commend itself to the Bar of the
State. Let Mr. Foster be chosen Judge by
all means, and then let him await his- turn
as Judge Butler, has done.

sociation have decided to hold their month-

TEMPERANCE Coanprmm—The Good

convention. with Norwalk Lodge Of South
Norwalk, Wednesday May 4th. A public
temperance meeting will be held in the eve-
ning which will be addressed by Hon. J. H.
Orne, Of ssachusetts, and Rev. Alpheus
Winter, of Connecticut. Mr. Ome is the
highest ofiicer of the Order in America, and
Mr. Winter is its Chief in Connecticut.
Both are able speakers, and we trust that a
large audience will be present at the even-
ing meeting.

A NEW COUNTY JAIL—The County Com-
missioners advertise fo'r proposals for con-
structing a new Jail and Work House which
it has been decided to construct at Bridge-
port. The old jail property is to be sold,
and some seven acres of land, including a
good stone quarry, has been purchased near
the Tom Thumb Place on which to con-
struct the new'buildings, The Commis-
sioners have visited a number of similar in-
stitutions in New England and New York,
with a view of gaining all the information
possible which would be of use in drafting
The new establishment
will be provided with about 100- cells and
will cost somewhere in the vicinity Of
$50,000. These buildings are to be con-
structcd with the view Of adopting a new
policy—that of making prisoners pay their
own way by labor, instead of supporting
them in idleness as at present. '
W Secretary Boutwell, who has an al-
most intuitive perception of men, has
struck the “ right manfor the right place”
in his selection of J. H. Saville, Esq.I for
Chief Clerk of the Treasury Department.
Mr. Saville has few eq'uals and no superiors
in the publios‘crvice, in ability, industry, or
true deserving. The public interest will
certainlybe promoted, and the Secretary
and Department are to be congratulated up-
on our friend’s advancement.

spected, because Mr. ana assures us that
Mr. Jones is unprincipled, because Mr. Bry-
ant thinks Mr. Greeley mercenary, or' be-.

to the trial of the steam fire engine “Mingo
Chief" built at the Allerton Iron Works in
this place for the town of Logan, Ohio.‘ It
will be seen that they are well pleased with
it there. We copy as follows :
“It was again brought out on Tuesday,
THIGH-ll; worked admirably and to the sat-
isfaction of almost the cntire,éommunity,
although there was'a brisk. wind blowing
all the time, which rendered it very difficult
to show to advantage. Two 1 4. Inch
streams~ were thrown over the immense
fistogy steam fiouring mill, and at times it
is said the streams were thrown at least
forty feet above the top Of the building, the
- building being eighty-five feet‘hirrh. Then.
it.wa's tested with 1200 feet of Hbse, when.
With on] about 40 pounds of steam it
threw a M inch stream 178 feet notwith-
standing the Wind blew almost a hurri-
cane. ' . '
It seemed to-givc satisfaction to our citi-
_zcns generall , and was accepted by the
Cannon. It is of the Second. Class, and
was manufactured at the extensive shops of
the Allerton Iron Works Manufacturing
Co., of South N orwalk Connecticut.” .
I . .
WE find that there is opposition even in
Norwich, to the elevation of ex-Gov. FOster
to theposition of Chief Justice. The Ad-
ccrtz'ser speaks with more than usual vigor
on the subject:
“ The extraordinary proposition to push
aside Judge Butler from the Chief Justice-
sbip, .made‘ vacant by the death of Chief
Justice Hinman, we predict will fail, no
matter hovvr eminent the man may be 'who
is brought out against him. . Judge Butler is
one of the most accomplished and truly ex-
cellent of the men - who have graced the.
bench of the State during the present gener-
ation, and the better ‘ sense of the people
would revolt .at any suggestion for slighting
him or .mjurm his feelings in ' any ‘way.
The Chief; J usticeship is fairly his due, and
we doubt if scheming cli‘ques have the pow-
er to deprive him of it.”

were put upon the stage in elegant style.
’,.'I‘iie performances 0f the Old Folks were're-
markably good, and formed a very pleasin
part of the programme. Mr. Gibson delight-
ed all with his performanceson the Piano,
and Miss Byxbec, as leading vocalist, was

umph was complete. Miss Haulenbcek and
Mr. Doty deserve special mention. The
characters throughout were generally well
taken, andsome of the costumes certainly
had seen the “ light of other days."
The entertainment was repeated with
good success on Wednesday evening.
The only thing to mar the interest of the
entertainment was the absolutely necessary
delay in putting the tableaux upon the stage.
Many Of the scenes were deserving of special
mention, but our, limited spaCe compels us
to omit details. The managers worked
hard to make the entertainment every way
pleasing and satisfactory, but are, doubtless,
well repaid by the result.
The piano, one of splendid tone and
action and furnished by Mr L. Weed, was
presided at by Mr. A. 8. Gibson the accom-
'plished organist of the First Congregational
Church. . .
The Scenery was neatly though quite ar-
tistically painted by Mr. Schnell of South
N orwalk, from designs prepared by Mr.
Henry Huss Of N. Y.—an intimate friend of
one 01' the managers and' a gentleman of
marked taste and genius, whose ingenuity
contributed largely to the success of the
entertainment.

AssAULT.—Mr. George J ennings,milkman,
informs us that on Monday last, while pass-
ing the new scho ouse in‘ Winnipauk at-
.4 o’clock, a. m., be was stopped by two men,
one of whom caught the horse by the bridle
got’out of the wagon When the men jumped
upon him, the .One grabbing and- holding
him by the throat while the other pounded-
him. . In the struggle he managed to strike
the shortest man and get him down under
his feet, where he kicked him the best he
could, the man crying out “Don’t kill me,
I was hired to do this.” . The tall man then
succeeded in getting the best oer. Jennings,
and was pounding him severely when the
horse,-seeming to realize his master‘s danger,
reared .up and forced the man to change his
position. Mr. J .’s cries for help seemed to
frighten the man and he let go his hold and
ran up the hill, into the woods.' This is the
second time Mr. Jennings has been assaulted
on this route. He can surmise no cause, for
he could not be expected to have much
money with him when starting out with his
milk. .

every evening and arriving in the city every
morning; while the swift,‘ gliding little
steamer, Nelly White, leaves her dock'here

again every evening at 6. And for all this
accommodation we are indebted to the
enterprise of Mr. White.
Bro BEER—DIP. J. T. Adams, at the

Ogden, Of Cross Highway, which dressed
63 lbs. to the hundred. We cheerfully testi-
fy to the excellent quality of the beef, and
all who obtain piecesof the same will be
in luck. Mr. Adams seems to be a thor-
oughly wide-awake Butcher, always up to
the times. He has recently had .a patent
Ice box, of huge dimensions, erected in his
market, at an' expense of some $350, in
which to keep his meat during the summer,
and a man who will go to that expense to
keep meat in good condition will exert him-
self to the utmost to obtain choice beef that
is worth keeping. Give him a call.

As the season .of house cleaning is at
hand, the following directions for cleaning
paint may be found serviceable: Provide a
plate with some of the.best whitening -to he
had, and have read some clean warm wa-
ter and a iece of none], which dip into
the water and squeeze near] dry: then
take as much whitening as wil adhere to it
apply it to the painted surface, when a little
rubbing will instantly remove any dirt or
.grease. After which‘wash well with clean
water, rubbing it dry with soft fiannels.
Paint thus cleaned looks‘ as well as when
first laid on,without any injury to the most
delicate colors. It is far better than usin
soap and-does not require more than ha f

of Atlantic, the citizens of which town re-
covered the bodies of the victims, which
wore shockingly mutilated, and gave -‘ them
interment. From what evidence they could
obtain, the outrage was traced to a large
party of Arapahoes who were camped on a
reservation belonging to the Snake In-,
dians, some forty miles from Atlantic. A
party immediately set out to'attempt their
dispersion, which was accomplished with-
out' the loss-or wounding of a white. Thir-
teen Indians'were killed—number wounded,
unknown. The writer further . states, as a
consequence of such.outrages that nearly all
business in the Sweetwater country is
suspended; and it was apprehended that a
large influx of Spring immigr‘ation, which
was confidently expected, would be divert-
ed elsewhere. ' Men had been killed within
a mile'of the town, and the more remote
mining camps were temporarily abandoned.
