THE SENATOBSHIP.

While we wish the re-eleclion of SENATOR

 

 

 

g _.FIB.BY injustice to him, we more earnestly

» L" insist upon it from public policY- Lat “3

consider :— '
The Republican party first came Into the

: fieldof conflict for the presidencyin 1856,

when General Fremont was its candidate.
Into that canvass MR. FERRY threw him'

' . self, with all his energy, and there is scarcely

" a town in the State where the old Republi-

cans will not remember his earnest, eloquent
and exhaustive speeches in lint campaign.
In 1860 he supported the nomination of Lin-

- coln & Hamlin with the same vigor and de-

termination he had evinced four years be-
'fore, addressing the people in the interior
school districts by day and by night, as
cheerfully and heartily as in the larger
villages and cities. Again, in 1864, taking
a leave of absence from the army, at the re-
quest of the Secretary ofWar, he came home
and devoted the whole period of his leave
to the support of the Republican presiden-
tial ticket. In 1868, placing himse f at the
disposal of the Republican State Committee,
be addressed the people of; the State where-
,ever his presence was desired, in the earnest

: advocacy of the election of Grant & Colfax-

Aud during all this period, at every inter-
vening Slate eléction,except when absent
wi.h the army, his voice has been heard all
over the Slate, rallying out people to the
support of the several Republican tickets.

We challenge contradiction when we as-
sert that no man living has given equal
time Or more cheerful and effective ethrt in
the public presentation of Republican doc-
trines before the people of Connecticut.

Four Of the best years of his life, he has
given to the military service of his cOuntry.
Since 1868 he has been in the Senate, and

all his speeches and votes there have been
in strict accord with the National Republi-
cal Platform of 1868,—lhe last authorized
declaration of the entire party.

Now, is it wise to depart from the ordina-
ry custom, and refuse such a man a re~elet -
tion. solely because the friends of anothlr
capable gentleman are unwilling to wait tll y
longer for the promotion of their favorite ?
Is the proposed treatment of , a public so)-
vant, with such a record as Mn. anm’s.
calculated to attract the young and entr-
getic men of the State to‘ourpnrty ? Is tbt
treatment either magnanimous or just in
itself 1’

The friends of SENATOR FERRY in Fair-
field county have taken no means to prt-
determine vthe action of the Legislature.
They have been content to wait the meeting
of the General Assembl to present lhei:
case. Thirty. years have‘elapscd since tln
last Senator was chosen from this county.
preceding MB.FERBY. Ever since the Re
public-an party has existed, it has been thl
practice in Connecticut for it to give its Sen—
ators and Representative 9. second term. N o
sufiicicnt reason exists for a departure front
this practice now. Mn. Funnv’s health is
restored to full capacity for Senatbrial duty.
Those of our- citizens who have VISIICC
Washington, or who heard him in the re-
cent cnuvass, do not need to be told this.
While we who live close by him know thl
fact so well that it is hard to repress a feel-
ing of indignation that his past sickness
should be urged against him now. .In every
other respect no' man dares openly breatht
aught against him.

We are informed that during the montl.
of April many members of the Legislaturt
have been importuned, in various ways,bj
the friends of another candidate. We on

. not aware that any such efforts have been-
made by the friends of Mn. Funny. w.

tice of the General Assembly to convent

fied with the President’s course entirely, ht
nevertheless thinks he shall vote for him.
and says :_—“I incline to the opinion that
me great mass of the people take a broader
view of affairs than politicians (I think
they are quite willing to overlook the mis-
take of the administration so long as the}
see that the‘govcrnment is being carried on
economically, that the revenues are being
properly collected, and that the national
debt is being daily decreased.”

The superservicenble advocacy of the
claims of.General Hawley for the Senator-
ship by the New' York Times‘has given
rise to the report that he is brought for-
ward as the “administration candidate” to

. defeat Senator Ferry, and we believe that

this impression ts widely prevalent in other
States. -Of course nobody in Connecticut
regards the contest as turning at all upon
the favor or disfavor of the administration.
Sofar as the administration is concerned,
,we‘do not know but the two candidates

' stand on an equal footing; Gen. Ferry has

taken an independent course in Congress,
and we believe he opposed the views of the
President in the matter of the San Domingo
negotiation, and Gen. Hawlev did the same

. in his paper. Gen. Hawley is not so firm-

ly wedded to the administration as .to pre-
vent the chief New Ergland organ .of the
Liberals, the Springfield Republican, from
supporting him with daily installments of
its advice The republicans of Connecticut

'are satisfied that Gen.Ferry has meantto do

his duty as a Republican and as an Ameri-

' can Senator. Some may have disagreed

With him at imes, but it has been conceded

. On all hands that his course was dictated
“by conscientious convictions of duty and

broad viewa of public policy. The friends

Wasnmorou, APRIL 28, 1872.
The routine of legislation, in either House
of Congress, has been unusually devoid of
popular interest the past week. As a con-
sequence wo have had thin galleries, few
orations, and a very quiet time.
The Senate, on Tuesday, voted that Gen;
Abbott, of Notllt Carolina, was not entitled
to a seat, and that Mr. Ranpom was, where-
upon the latter gentleman was sworn in,
and for the first time since the rebels volun-
,tarily marched out of the Senate has every
State of the Union been fully represented.
The House, Wednesday, passed the “Goat
Island” bill which gives the Central Pacific
Railroad the right to a termini in the harbor
of San Francisco. This bill has been stoutly
assailed from the Pacific shores, and has go!
well mixed into their State politics, but it
seems to Win the interest of commerce,- and
if the grant is properly guarded, it must re-
sult to the general welfare.
Thursday a spirit of exhileraling rhetoric
was given in the House over a resolution
demanding the release Of Dr. Howard, a war
prisoner in Cuba, who claims to be an
American citizen. This resoldtion was
finally passed on Friday, and if the Doctor
realy 1': an American citizen entitled to gov-
ernment protection, he may be rescued from
Spanish barbarism. There were many
spread-eagle speeches made over the resolu-
tion, and when the Democratic leader of thr-
House announced, with special emphasis
that ours was the most cowardly and. pusi-
lanimous government on the face of the.
earth in reference to its foreign policy, era
was an audible murmur of applause on the
Republican, as well as on the opposition
side of the chamber.

The House yesterday dec‘ded to meet
daily at 11 A. M. hereafter to facilitate the
business before it. The effort to secure an
adjournment before the Philadelphia Con-
vention, failed. ‘ -

The House committee on elections Friday
norning had up the contested election case
)f Giddings against Clark appointed from
he third district of Texas, and refused to
:rant the application of Clark for an extenl
don of time to take additional evidence.
l‘he case will be taken up by the committee

in Monday, when it is feared “fur friend. the
leneral, will “have leave to withdraw.”

Senator Schurz left Washington for Cin-
cinnati on Friday evening. Senators Fen-
ton, Trumbull, Tipton, and others will go,

t is reported, Monday evening.

Senator Logan says, it is reported, that he
- will stick by the '-Philadelphia Convention,
1nd see if another than Grant cannot be
nominated there and thus the unity of the
)arty be maintained. ,

The politicians didn’t win in the struggle
lo fill the vacant controllership of the cur-
ency. Mr. Knox, the deputy, an expe-
rienced and worthy officer, was very justly
llld appropriately advanced to the position.

A grand reception was given, Friday, by
icnator and Mrs. Spraguc, at which mem-

lers of the Cabinet, Senators, and Represen-
zatives were present, and hundreds of other
:uests. It was the most prominent of the
:losing, season. Chief Justice Chase re-
:eived his f.iends, who were gratified with
IIS renewed health. ,

'anlry and one section of artillery. The C-
.‘l. G. make their first appearance in their

king contrast with the old Dutch rig which
so long disfigured our State troops.

Arrangements .has been made, for this
season, with Mr. Robert Fuller, 9. man of
great experience, to take charge of the Re-
freshment deputment on the Steamboat
Americus. Mr. R has been for sometime on
the Long Branch route, employs first class
Cook and waiters and has the reputation of
providing meals in good style and at very
reasonable rates. It is hoped that the trav-
eling public will appreciate the enterprise
of Com. White in this respect, and give it.
their support as much as possible, so that
this department can be maintained in the
excellent manner contemplated. Mr. Fuller
also has the same departments on the
S earner Nelly White now running to Stam-
ford.

faster than the Ne”, and equally as cont-
modious and well-furnished, the change can-
not fail to give good satisfaction to our peo-
ple. The Nellv White has always been a
very popular boat here, and as she is much
better adapted to the Stamford route than
she was to this, she cannot fail to satisfy the
people of Stamford.

,side the walk is partially laid, and the good
work is going On. This beautiful street is ‘
thus being wonderfully improved its entire
length to near the, borough line. The im-
provement in front of the Weed place will
be decided, and, in our opinion, a benefit to
the place itself.
A survey of North Avenue has also been
ordered, with a. view to ordering the con-
struction of walks. If the work is done
from Main street to the churches on the

WThe Palladium, in an article of great
candor, force and dignity, 'thus truthfully,
culminates its argument in behalf of the re-
election of Senator Ferry :—

Whelher his friends elected to the General
Assembly are lo-day a. majority of the re-
publicans, we are not prepared to say, but
We have no hesitation in; SayMg that a ma-
jority, and 'a large one, ol‘the republicans of
the Slate demand his re-eleclion. If the
question were to be decided by vote a the
republican voters, there could be no doubt
of the result. Had Senator Ferry carefully
nursed a personal following, employed
agents to keep his name before the people,
looked afler the caucusses and nominations
to the General Assembly, perhaps there
might be more enthusiasm for him in the
State, but then, too, he wouldbe less worthy
of arousing it than he now is. It is not, we
think, the least of his merits that he has pre-
pferred to pursue another course, and has set
the example, none too frequent, of a man
who refusing to stoop to win favor by pop-
ular arts has calmly followed the course of
duty, regardless where it might lead him.
He has shown us what a Senator should be
—-evcn .his opponents do not deny this—and
it will be a sorry day for the Republii: when
statesmen who have been tried and proved
able and faithful are dismissed through
caprice, or to make way for those who as-
pire to occupy their seats. ‘

Traveling in the Fourth Avenue cars, New
York, is growing more and more dangerous.
We frequently hear of Connecticut people
being robbed Of valuable watches, money,
the, while riding in the horse cars on that
line. ’ The’last case‘ was on Saturday last.
Contractor Cram, of this place, was seated
in a car in conversation with Mr. Henry
I ith, when a well-dressed, fine appearing
young fellow,with an Overcoat on his arm,
crowded against Mr. Cram. Mr. Smith sud-
denly discovered the fellow trying to steal.
Mr. Cram’s diamond bosom pin and gave the
alarm. Our athletic friend immediately
grasped the fellow, and with Mr. Smith’s
assistance succeeded in bringing him before
the proper authorities, and he is‘now await-
ing trial. Theman stoutly protested his in-
nocence, but when brought before the police
an officer called him by name and remark-
ed, “guess we'have you this time.” Messrs.
Cram and Smith deserve much credit for
bringing the fellow to justice.

Instrument BUTTON-Holt,

OVERSIAMIIIB, AID
COMPLETE SEWING MACHINE.

The first and only Button-Hole and Sewing Ma-
chine combined that has made its advent in this or
any other country. The following reasons are given
why this is the ,

BEST FAMILY MACHINE TO PURCHASE:

1. Because it will do everything that any machine
can do, sewing from the finest to the coarsest mate-
rial, hemminv. felling, cording, braiding, binding.
galhenng and sewing on, at the same time, milling,
quilting, better than any other machine. 2. Because
the tensions are more easily adjusted than any other
machine. 3. Because the shuttle is entirely difi'erent
l‘rOm any other and very little trouble to thread. 4.
Because it can work a beautiful button-hole makir:
no line a pearl as by the hand. 5. Because it wifi
embroider over the edge, making aueat and beautiful
border on any garment. 6. Because it.wlll work a
beautiful eyelet hole. 7. Because it can do overhand
seaming, by which sheets, pillow cases. and the like
are sewed over and over. 8. Because you can quickly
raise or lower the feed to adapt it to thick or thin
cloth. 9. Because you have a short, deep bobbin by
which thread is constantly drawn from the center;
the tension is consequently even, and does not break
the thread. 10. Becase the presser-foot turns back;
that the cloth can be easily removed afterbeing sew-
ed. 11._ Because the best mechanics pronou. ce it
the best finished and made on the best principle of
any machinemauut'actured. It has no springs to
break; nothing to get out of order. 12. Because it
is two machines in one—a Button-hole Working ind
Sewing Machine combined.
