Fourth of July Celebration!
There will be a meeting to further con-_

sider the question of an old fashioned cele-

bration of the Fourth, held at the GAZETTE

OFFICE, this Tuesday evening, at 8 o’clock.

MOW—.—
LEGISLATIVE.
The Capital question was the chief sub-

. ject of Legislative interest last week. The ~

vote in “t 16 Senate was 13 for and S‘against
a disturbance of the present plan of two

' Capitals, or as it was perhaps more practi-

a

cally denominated. 13 for Hartford and 8 for
New Haven. It is well known that the
people of this County would favor New
Haven. in, the event of changing the present
system, and much surprise was expressed
when votes of our two Democratic senators
were cast the other way. A New Haven

‘paper, very unjustly, as we think, attributes

this to “ bribery.” The “transfer” of Mr.

Adams of the 10th, may be laid at the
door of the Hon-Wm. D. Bishop, who has
a good deal of hay out on consolidation and
for “ ways that are dark and tricks that are
vain” like that Heathen Chinee is known to
be “peculiar." Mr. Ferry from the 111b,
cast his vote inadvertently and under a
misapprehension and Would, we 'are told, if
a reconsideration Were had, in the Senate,
vote with the minority. The Senators from
the 19th and 20th Districts voted for New
Haven to the surprise and chagrin of the
good people of Hartford. Senator Thayer
is very severely criticised, and at least one
paper did not hesitate broadly to insinuate
Corruption in his case. This charge we
deem equally inconsiderate and unjust with
that charging the same crime upon our own
Senators on the otha side. The question
now goes to th ouse and its fate is likely I
to be the same there as in the Senate. A
majority will vote for its location at Hart-
ford, but two-thirds cannot be secured, it is
thought There are a great many throughout
the State who prefer the present plan of two
Capitals and the alternating system of Our
Fathers. Others want Middletown, and yet
others Mcridcn, considered, when the case
goes to the people. It would have been quite
sure, we. think, of a successful passage, had
the question submitted to the . people been
such as was strongly urged last year, which
was that the vote might be whether one or
two Capitals. and if so, what town or city
should be such Capital. As it now stands,
it must be cither~Ncw Haven or Hartford,
and were the measure to carry, the State
would experience a most active canvassIby
the rivals.

We are pretty sure of a General Railroad
law. The friends of that. measure have se-
cured the parmc'ssion of the President; of the
New Haven Road, that such a law may be
enacted (1)

On Thursday, the Senate and a majority
of the House Members, accompanied the
Committee on Humane Institutions to the
Insane Hospital at Middletown.’ This new
State Institution is very eligibly located on
the {vest bank of the Connecticut river, and
although the edifice is very large it is filled
to repletien and an appropriation is asked
for to extend its accommodations, so that
the scores of other patients throughout the
State may be admitted. Superintendent
Shcw, acting with the Board of Trustees,
took apparent pleasure in exhibiting the
building, patients, and the general manage-

I men; of the Institution. Everything visible
tOI'tlieI'vlvsi‘tor, was certainly very creditable
to its management. These State institutions
for the unfortunate should receive the foster-
ing care as well as prudent oversight of the
Legislature. - ‘ ‘

 

Minister Wushblirne.

There is no officer under Gen. Grant’s ad-
ministration who has more faithfully earned
the gratitude of all Americans than Minister
ELIl-IU B. WASIIBURNE, at Paris» The terri-
ble ordeal through which Ithat fated city has
passed is known to all, but it is not so well
known that while every American and other
foreigner, who could get away, fled the city,
Mr, Washburne, at the peril of his life, has

'fcma‘rincd‘ faithfully at his post, suecoring
such of. his countrymen as could not leave,
and protecting the property of Iabsentccs.
Such devotion to oficial duty, should not
and will not pass unrecognized by his grate-
ful countrymen.

 

The Vice-President’s lllIicss.
An exchange says the .sicknessof Schuy-
. lcr Colfax was, according to a Washington
paper, the disease thatmay almost be called
the national one, a stroke of paralysis, ex-
tending to head and heart. This is the dis-
ease impending ovcr all of our hard work-
ing men, who give themselves up to the total
absorption of mind and energy in business.
politics, or study. It. strikes down one and
another,in all ranks, wit 1 alarming and in-
creasing frequency. And yet our people
drive on in their pursuits as if .their consti-
tutions were ofIiron, never resting until the
blow comes, and, crippled, if not killed, they
- are-removed from the roar and struggle of
our fast lif’ ' ‘

There is certainly something peculiar in
the spinal and brain maladies affecting our
public men in Congress, and we have a the-
ory of our own, that. the propagating garden
style of architecture of the ceiling of both
the Senate and Representative Hall Cham-
bers, is in some way connected with this dis-
ease. Then to make matters worse, all the
fresh air of heaven is excluded and the health
'givmg rays of the sun are also kept out save
what pours down through the glass root
upon the members’ heads. There is certainly
a defect in ventilation, and the air pumped
in from 1m basementshonld be drawn from
above. We never could remain an hour in
the gallery of the Senate without feeling an
oppression of the head similar to that pro-
duced by a tight cravat about the neck.
When such strong and physically rObust
men as Senators Ferry, Wilson, Cattell,
Windom, Mot-rill, Chandler, and now Mr.
Colfax, are identically aifecb d, it would
seem that some attention should be drawn
to the causes of these singular affections.

DECORATION DAY.

Aye! Crown with flowers each soldier’s grave!
All honor to the nation’s dead,

Wherever trccdo m’s flag may wave

Above the beautiful and brave,

Let loving tears for them be shed.

We gave our gold, our toil,om- prayers,
Against the‘ tyranny of sin.

A fuller sacrifice was theirs,

They gave themselves. Each freeman shares
The priceless boon they died to win.

Aye! Crown with flowers the martyr host!
White-robe them with a people‘s praise—
Our king-1y slain! Ourjoy and boast
Shall be to place them uppermost
In grateful memory all our days.

The graves of the fallen soldiers scpnlchred
in Norwalk Cemetery, were visited by their
comrades and citizens on Tuesday last for
the grateful and touching homage of strew-
ing the silent mounds with flowers. The
day was also very generally observed thro‘-
out the land. At Bridgeport, New Haven,
Meriden and Hartford, extensive and formal
ce'cmonies were indulged, and the day
made beautifully commemorative .of our
dead heroes. A plbasant feature elsewhere,
and to a limited extent here, was the join-
ing in of all the school children in the pro-
cession‘s marching to the cemeteries. The
graves at Pine Island and at Five Mile Riv-
er yards were decorated on Sunday, and sim-
ilar' ceremonies to those of Tuesday ob-
served. Addresses, eloquent and touching,

human utterances were so eloquent as the
mute mounds-covering the sleeping forms of-
our dear, brave, dead boys. “Died while in
the service of his country” was the touch-
ing Inscription on the marbletablets erected
to perpetuate the memory of many. What
epitaph more grand, more eloquent and glo-
rious 111 all patriotic inspirations cIould mor-
tal man ask to be put above his mouldering
dust ? The tender hearts and willing hands
ofmany bet-eat ed ones, prompted a lavish
bedccking of the resting places of their lost
Ones, while patriotic brother and meek-eyed
sister forget not to speak in hushed but lov-
ing tones of those who “never came back
from the war,” but sleep in nameless un-
known graves. And fitting and most bean-
tifully did'thc pure rain drops fall at the
close of both days, as if to refresh the fading
flowers the hands of- loved ones had left
wilting on caclt soldier’s tomb.
Long may this sweet service be observed
and the memories of our Soldier-dead be
perpetuated. Let “Decoration Day" be the
chief one of all the year’s calender of noted
occasions. For Norwalk and the ‘Nation,
has no proudcr record than the roll of her
sonswho died in her defenc'c and no legacy
or treasure so sacred and precious as their
graves. The names of Wilcoxson, Fowler,
Prowitt, Murphey, Brown, Allen, Jennings,
Ferris,Benedict,Brady and all the long list of
others who gave their yOung lives to Liberty,
will _ live and be revered, when the now
rich, the great and powerful, will have faded
from ghe memory of mankind.
NORWALK CEMETERY.
The exercises on Tuesday, in Norwalk
Cemetery, were simple but impressive. The
soldiers met at theGazctte office from whenéc
they proceeded to the cemetery bearing the
flowers which fair hands had tastefully ar-
ranged in boqucts, crosses, wreaths, 83c. At
the cemetery they were joined by the chil-
dren of the Over River and INorth Center
districts, and quite a large gathering of la-
dies and gentlemen. Mr. C. F. Loomis acted
as Marshal. The exercises commenced with
l’rayerrby Rev. 0. W. G ates, followed by
the singing of “America.” Rev. Samuel

Our late army was composed of the .best
elements. Just considerjfor,a_momeut how
any‘boys there were c‘onuec
churches and Sunday Schools in Norwalk,
who left the endearments - of home - and
friends and went '0 battle against treason.
Why. nearly every one of those boys were
praying boys. During a twelve months
campaign through the soth we heard more
privateIprayiug, and Christian advice, and
cxhortation than,we ever heard before.

FIRST on THE SEASON—Mr. Ezra Curtis
invaded our sanctum on Thursday mornitig.
June lst, and .100. with us three quartsof
very large strawberries of superior flavor,
raised on his Blue Mountain Farm. They
were as delicious as they were early. Mi'.
Curtis, we learn,picked twenty-six quarts
of berries on Saturday, which is doing re-
markably well for so early in the season.

Mr. James E. Ells, who also takes much
pride in fruit culture, picked several quarts
of fine berries on Thursday afternoon.

O.'r good friend, Mrs. Charles Comstock,‘
who'has so kindly remembered us, in prevr-
ous seasons, also sent in a fine lot of large
berries on Saturday. They were very large
and of exquisite fiavOr. May she’be reward-
ed thisyear with a larger crop than ever.

 

WAndy Johnson has been “swinging
around the circle” again. This time a! the
Fair at Nashville, and although the day'was
intolerably hot. he spoke for three mortal
hours. In the procession he rode with the
tailors, and loudly proclaimed that he was a
tailor and proud to acknowledge it. As
usual, he mudtLIed every topic which he
undertook to treat. But if the late V. P.
came” out clear and strong on anything upon
this momentous occasion,, it was criminal

 

remarks, and read the “roll of honor.” which
we print elsewhere. Col. Vincent Colyer
made a brief and touching address, aud‘was
followed in a few ‘remarks by Mr. Thomp-
son, teacher in the North Center School.
Mr Loomis read the articles of the Monu-
mental Association, after which the soldiers
proceeded to decorate the following graves:

DEATH ON THE Run—Last week More
day, the down noon express train, on the
New Haven railroad, near Port Chester,
struck a wagon containing John Miller, a‘
well known "grocery merchant, who had a
leg and arm broken, and was otherwise in-
jured, but probably not fatally. Ayoung
man named Hinman was slightly injured.
The horse which was driven by him was
killed. '

The same day a train ran into acity horse
car, and kill the driver and one passenger
who was standing on the front platform.
On Thursday morning last, as three men
were— walking down the track in Darien,
one of' them was caught between the ex-
press down and the accommodation up, and
killed. The 'menlhad been employed on
our Water‘Works, but: were then on their
way to New York, having “struck.”

 

 

W” Merchants and manufacturers are'fre-
quently bored by drummers representing
mammoth. printing establishments in the city,
with long and high-sounding names never
befo:e heard of, who solicit orders for all
kinds of printing, and who cannot be driven
off until they receive an order for Willing
and thus buyers are made topay for being
bored. Others thoughtlessly give orders to
unknown outsiders, and never think of en-
couraging home institutions that are really
constantly at work helping them directly
and indirectly, and that, tho, when they
could generally be served to better advan—
tage at home. -

this line, we remember having seen in this
vicinity, is a grand, majestic old pine tree
situated on Grumman’s Hill, on .-the back
road leading to Norwalk. Its dimensions
are not equal to the mammoth pines of Cal-
ifomia, but still a sight of' its fine propor-
tions will repay any admirer of trees for
taking a pleasure ride that way.

More nor-Torn In Brldselmflo

At about three o‘clock yesterday morning
an altercation took place in Washington
Avenue, between two men Gillis and Greg-
ory, both a good deal the worse off for
liquor, resulting in almost instaneous death
of the latter. It seems that the two had just
emerged from a saloon where they had been
playing blufl‘, and getting into a. dispute rel-
ative to the matter of a few cents which one’
had received more than his due. Gregory
struck Gillis a blow with the fist which was
resented,'when the latter drew a huge jack-
knifc and ripped open the abdomen .of his
companion, front the effects of which he
died in a very short time. Gillis who had
sustained injuries in the encounter, went im-
mediately to the office of Dr. Nash, in Main
Street, to have his wounds dressed, and was
there arrested by the police, and will be.
held for trial. A coroner's jury rendered a
verdict in accordance with the facts. The
saloon keeper has since been arrested.

On Saturday evening two men were cut-
ting down a tree in Cannon Street, nearly
in front of St. John’s (Episcopal) church,
‘with the intention of titlling in between the
church and an adjoining building, guying it
with ropes to‘ secure that result. When
nearly off at the butt, it began to away and
at last came doWn with a terrible crash
across the street, striking the head of Mr.
William S. Humphry, of the firm of Humph-
ry, Watson &. 00., boiler makers, in the
city, who, in company with Mr. T. P. White
was passing, leisurely turning the leaves of
the June number 'of Harper’s Magazine,
crushing in his skull, killing him instantly.
and so seriously injuring a Mr. John Ochs,
that it is thought he cannot rccbver. Mr.
H. was a highly respectable man, aged about
60, and his untimely death brings sorrow to
a large circle of friends.

This sad event, With the Sanger and Greg-
ory murders; killing of a man near the
Housatonic railroad engine house; Great
Fire, and all happening within two weeks,
make Bridgeport-a city of growing sensa-
‘tions, but we hope not a dangerous place to
live in. PAUL.

Presuming that he was the “disappointed

but agreeably” is he disappointed; also that
he“‘.has never inquired, or stated that he had
so inquired, of a single individual on the
route in relation to the quality or use of the
water,” but that he has made the general

 

 

 

ties, that no river water is found pure.” He

the Water Comissioners are to build a stone
dam in the place of an earth dam so long
talked of. They are wise in doing so. An
earth dam is uncertain and cannot be de-
pended upon’; a good stone and cement dam
with a good foundation will stand for years
and years to come, I_ would Stay that I have
lived here in this place, on the river, nearly
