CONGRESS.
The second, or long session of the Forty-
second Congress, convened at 12 M. yester-
1: day. Connecticut was represented by the
presence of all her members and both her
senators Mr. Ferry was warmly congratu-
lated on his restored health and greatly 1m-
proved condition. The session will un-
doubtedly prove an'exceedingly interesting
one. The inevitable plots and connterplots
of politicians interested in the organization
and manipulation of the Presidential cam-
paign of next yearfwill give a spice to this
session unknown to intervening ones.
In the Senate the first and almost only
business, beyond references to committees,
will he action upon the President's nomina- i
. lions, many hundreds of which have been
made during the recess. . There will be.
some sparring, sharp criticising of the ad-’
ministration, and sullen acquiescence in the
confirn‘ratory 'votes of the majority in the
“ executive sessions,” which will be frequent
and piquant. Mr. Greeley has already fur-
nished disaffected Republicans with a ring-
ing campaign mott0—“ Office-holders to the
rear ”—“ Tax-payers t0 the front," which
many Congressmen and even “ grave and
reverend " SenatOrs will not fail to flourish
with rhetorical vigor. The‘ most prudent
and best informed of our public men do not
anticipate that the ever alert Democracy can
calculate on much advantage from these
variances of Congressional Republicans.
Indeed, it would seem that the most prudent
and judicious leaders of the Democracy
were anxiously courting for their party a
sort of Lee’s surrender of the next presiden-
tial campaign. It 'is none the less a pity
that peace and unity of action could not
possess all our own party leaders. . .
In the House, the first vexatious business
will be the unfinished organization of Com-
mittces. Speaker Blaine, who always keeps
his own counsels, is “equal tothe occasion,”
and whatever anxious aspirant may be sub-
. jected' to personal disappointment the public
interests will be the chief object of the
Speaker’s care and will be pretty sure to .
determine the questions of selection, inde-
pendent of all outside pressure.
The message is a short, terse composition
in General Grant‘s usual vein. It' 13 as con-
spicuous, perhaps, in 'What it omits as in
what it mentions.
The questions of revenue, tariff, civil
service reform, and kindred quefiions are
likely to receive special Ipromi .06. The
growing conviction throughout 'e country
that the burdens of national taxationsbould
be materially reduced and the firture aug:
-mented wealth and population of the nation
bear a greater share than hitherto contem~
plated in the' cancellation of the public debt,
will have its weight with the administration
and thedominant party .in Congress, now
on the eve of another popular appeal for
- four years more lease of-power. It seeins a
certaintythat the odious personal income
ta/x, which has'come to be known ass pre-
mium paid on perjury, willxgo bythe board.
And while the protective element is in a'
majority in Congress there is an activeand
able free trade power there also, which will
be very likely to secure important .reduc-'
tions in many articles of importation to
which can be attached a clamor of monopoly
protection.

His contestant is also on hand prepared for .
a vigorous-battle for the seat, in which he
will be 118- inforeed by the entire Democratic
part of the‘Hou‘se, (whatever the committee
report may be) and possibly a few “ conser-

Tmnservntc.— Thursday was such a
cold, blaster-log day that most people were
only too glad .to restrain ingdoors by the
fire, ‘Ithus 'Insking mbe rdsy comparatively
dull,’ although generally observed as a holi-
day- The. services at the churches were
very slimly attended. Atthe First Congre-
tional church, Dr A. Hill preached, the
pastor being unwell. Rev. Mr. . Gut tes
preached in his own church. No services
' were‘held st~.the‘ 2nd Methodist, Rev. Mr.
Simmons being away.‘ .
Senure us the Annette-s Club House.
On Wednesday last, the Ainericus Club
House, at Greenwich, was entered by oili-
cers of the law, who seized the elegant fur-
niture, fixtures, etc, upon an execution
granted to Messrs. Knapp dc Fitch, of South
Norwalk, to secure a4 balance due them, as
builders, of about 310,000. The New York
dailies pronounce this .‘ “new dodge,"_ and
say that it is a. mere trick “to prevent the
property being levied upon by the Com-
mittee of Seventy." -Wc'believc this to be
an error, and that the seizure was honestly
made to secure the builders from loss, for it
has long been understodd thatthey had
never beeh paid in full. f

this renowned orator, and they Will“ improve.
it. He is 'to talk of the “Signs- of the
Times,” we believe and will probably ad-
vocate many things at generally believed
in, which will make the lecture all the’more
interesting. It is seldom that such distin-
guished speakers can he heard in this vi-
cinity, and therefore the attendance may
reasonably be expected to be very large, in-
cluding persons from all the adjacent vil-
lages.
Rev. Mr. Goodsell delivered his second
lecture last Tuesday evening before a very -
large audience.- 4His descriptions of his
visit to the “Big Trees" and to the Yosemite
Valley were very interesting, and were il-
lustrated by large and exceedingly beautifirl
” Stereopticon pictures, Which s.d.ded vastly
to the attractions of the entertainment.-
These lectures were given for the benefit of
the church, and we are please to learn netted
about 8165. The Rev. gentleman has a
strong dislike to the “show business, ” we
are aware, but as his lectureitare so instruct
ive, and entertaining withal, .we trust he_
maybe induced to repeat the lectures up-
town for the: gratification :of his fellow-
‘citizens.

finest specimens of car finishing ever turned
out by that company. The interior-of the

veneers quite new in this quarter. The up-
holstery was done by those unrivaled furni-
ture men, Messrs. thbell & Curtiss, of

in faint imitation of the Americas Club

A reliable contra—n0, a reliable gentle.-

of the N. Y. dailies of the return of Mr.

quisition based on a criminal charge. This
may be so, but it is. news to the people or

The report in theN. Y. limes, that lawyer
Beers, of South Norwalk, seized the property
at thfimeficus Club House really for the,
purp of securing itfor the Tammany
Ring thieves, we believe does injustice to
that gentleman. The community here gen-
crnlly believe that he would be engaged in
no such disgraceful business, and that the-
seiznre was made in good faith for the
benefit of his clients, Messrs. Knapp d1

ANOTHER REPUBLICAN YICTOBY.
The annual electiond‘or Borough officers
was heldyesterday, and resulted inan-
0ther victory for the Republicans, they
electing their entire ticket with the single
exception of Treasurer. As usual there
was quite a number of split tickets in the
field. There was no special interest appar-
ently, felt“ in the election, and the vote was
quite small —someth1ng smaller than last
year, the democracy polling about twenty
more than last year, and the Republicans
about forty less. We give the vote below,

The above is a f-tir sample of the glbes,
with which our exchanges are filled. It is
not at nil to be wandered at, and yet, we
read them, much with the feeling of the
barefoot lubber Mr. Lincoln used to tell of,
who hit his own too an awful Whack under
the delusion that it' was a toad. He was
too darned big to cry and it hurt too darned
bad to laugh. Mr. Woodward had his
faults, which were well known and recog-_
nized here, aside from the later charges of
iorgery and robbery which now cause him
to be an outcast and fugitive, but he had
virtues also. No man. ever gave to our
town such an impetus of growth and pros-
perity. That he has put South Norwalk :1
quarter of a century ahead‘of' its plodding
pace when he settled there, cannot be gain-
said. That he was generous, gushing and
liberal to a fault, all well know, and the re-
ply will no doubt come back and well he
may have been, for his money cost him no
effort or sacrifice and he could afford to be
profuse with it. While this is not to be de-
nied, all can now see that had~he been more
secretive and selfish in the investment of
his means, it wouldnot have been half so
imperiled-now; or liable to confiscation. It
is an old but very just if not elegant pro.
verb, that. the devil should have his due.
And when we see those men, who were his
fiatterers, when he Was in the apexof his
power and prosperity now chuckling over
his, misfortunes and with miserly avarice,
seeking to profit by the forced sacrifice of
his property, it sickens us with the degrad-
ed phase of man's mercenary nature. Mr.
Woodward’s I sincere desire to promote the
business interest and prosperity of the town
and in a special manner, to aid so many of
our citizens, entitles him to at least “their
just, if not generous criticism in his adver-
sity. It' is well knovvn that we have not
been slow to criticisemis conduct as a pub-
lic man and candidate for office. We now
have no justification- or palliation to offer
for his undoubted misdeeds, but cu the
other hand,, We can find no pleasure in on-
justly or even unnecessarily traducing a
fallen foe, and therefore have not joined in
the popular clamor, and mad-dog cry,-
which seems to have been enjoyed and slim-
ulated hereabouts more by' those he has be
tl-iended than by those who have hitherto-
opposed him.
As for _Mr. Keyser, our people, .111 know
him here, only as an upright, conscientious.
and unpretentious man, eager to do what
he could for the public gratification and:
general attractiveness 0f Norwalk. Our:
best citizens will not refrain from the hope
that the Iresult will not prove their estimate
of his character to haIv_e been mistaken.

while the saloons, theaters and billiards
halls of the city have lost none of their at-
tractions. They are well 'Warmcd, bril-
lianfiy lighted, and thrown most tempting-
iugly ope; What wonder, then, if num-
ber of our young men, who before would
scorned to visit such haunts, are now, from
4 sheer necessity, compelled to frequent them
4 insearch of the social enjoyment _and re:
cacation which they cannot find in there
own narrow, fir-furnished and padly-lighted
rooms ,and so contract habits which, long
enouIIgh indulged, inevitibly guarantee their
run
In view therefore of this condition of
things amon our youn men and having
regard to on responsib itybefore Godfor
our bibthers, rescue them, if we. can, from
any possible fate, we have resolved to
establish a Young Men’s Club and Reading
Room—free—whrcb, by being comfortably
furnished and provided with books, maga-
azines, illustrated papers, daily journals,
chess boards, writing apparatus, etc, may
present an attractive place of resort, where
young men may, w1tb0nt respect to creed
or church connection‘ spend their evenings,
Ipleashntly in social intercourse, mental im-
provement, or any other occupation that
will conduce to their enjoyment, or consist
with their truest welfare.
-While, however, we are persuaded‘rthat
sucha club would be largely patronized,
and hereby pledge ourselves to spare no
effort to make it a success, we must rely
mainly on aid from abroad as our local
sources of help are entirelybxhausted. We,
therefore respectfolly, but cprnestly, solicit
donations to assist us in carryng out our
project.
