preached by the Rev. James Hubbell, on the
occasion of Dr. lra Gregory’s funeral. The
death of Dr. Gregory makes another serious
breach in the ranks of our elder and more
substantial residents, and recalls a long list
of names of those who have in years past
borne more or less important parts in the
local affairs of our town, and who have
within acomparatively recent period passed
away. We now recall the names of Deacon

Crumbling.
There is a very general expression of
dissatisfaction, that while the receipts of
our late Fair, were so much in excess of
former years, that they should have been so
largely absorbed in “expenses." A good
way to “tone down” such expenditures is to
publish the items.
WE. K.Lockwood, Esq.,has been overhis
old Canadian and New England excursion
ground again this summer, and returned
Saturday evening. 'While at Memphrema-
gog he “ hooked” several scores of speckled
trout which he had packed in ice and for-
warded to Norwalk, where they arrived in
good order and tickled the palates of many
of our town’s worthies, “ among whom we
were which.” “ Thanks, my noble friend.”

[From the Army and Navy Journal, Sept. 14th.]
ENCAMPMENT or run FOURTH INFANTRY
AT Sourrr Normans—In the New York
State Inspector-General’s report for the last
year, that ofllcer expresses the doubt wheth-
er the benefits of encampment in the Na-
tional Guard are at all commensurate with
the trouble and expense, and gives very
good reason for his remarks, deduced from
his observation of thcusual practices in the
encampments of our State militia. Woven-
ture to say that if he had taken a trip to
South Norwalk ‘last wé’ek, any time from
September 2 to, 7, he would have found
reasons to conclude that encampments may
be conducted. even under our tax militia
laws. in a manner to proyeof immense
benefit to all concerned, and unmixed pleas-
ure to all except those parties who find
themselves in the care of the ofiicer of the
day for violating rules; and in regard ,-tr
their cases one cannot expect to please all
mankind. ; . '.
The Fourth Connecticut has been organ-
ized for about a year under the State law of
1871, which is in many instances similar to
the New York Military Code, but reduces
the State force to four regiments of infantry
and'two; sections of artillery. The differ-
ent companies were assembled at Camp
Jewell, for the first time as a battalion, and
came from all parts of the Congressional
district, most of the company officers, we
uudm'stand, being strangers to each. other
till they met at this place, their companies
being consolidated from various old or an-
izations, principally the old ,Eizbth on-
necticut. Our representative found the men
to be principally country lads, somewhat
green and uncouth individually, but infused
with a strong leaven of old soldiers, as is
usually the case at present in our National
Guards, though how long the advantage
will lastis problematicai; from the many
discouragements to effective militia service
in most of our States. We found the regi-
ment in a delightfully clean, level field, re-
cently mown,—and.by the side of theNor-
walk creek‘; the tents arranged according to
regulation, a strong guard around the whole,
and the most perfect neatness and order
reigning 'over the encampment. '
In most militia eucampments there is so
much disorder and drunkenness, so many
men continually running the guard, and es-
ecially when neara populous village like
, orwnlknso‘ many men loafing about the
streets, the contrast in this case Was perfect-
ly amazing. We found the grand secret of
this very soon on. inquiry. Camp Jewell
was run on “ cold water principles," and
these principles were rigidlv enforced on all
without regard to rank. be result was,
perfect order, and what is most difficult‘of
all to maintain in mili‘ia, discipline. We
found the morning battalion drill (two hours
by the watch) in active operation, and very
creditably performed. The men are hard
worked at Camp Jewell, having four hours
drill a day, besides dress parade;bnt, the
weather being chill, they are able to stand
it, and the, Colonel seems determined to
make the most of his week. > When it is re-
membered that the regiment has never been
together for battalion drill, their perform-
ances last week were excellent. The after-
noon battalion drill was closed by a move-
ment which few regular troops could have
excelled. The regiment, in open column of
divisions went round the field, with two
turns, at double time, and when they wheel-
ed into line. still at double time, there was
not a gap to be seen, and hardly any dress-
ing was required. Although not one of
those showy evolutions which win the ap-
plause of a multitude ’of civilions. such a
movement, with such results, shows remark-
able improvement in three days’ drill (we
saw them .on Wednesday, 4th rust), and we.
feel confident that the week’s work will
. show equal improvement all through from
the firm‘ basis already established. The
manual of arms at dress parade was very
good, not. so perfect as that of our Seventh
no doubt, but with the some advantages of
frequent battalion drills at the same rate'of
improvement the Corlnecticut boys would
run our best “ cracks” very hard. ,
But the grand feature of Camp Jewell,
which would strike a military observer af-
ter seeing one" of those camps which caused
'our Inspector-Generals despair, was the real
discipline exhibited. While many of the
New York National Guard regiments might
equal and excel the Fourth Connecticut in
point of mechanical perfection of drill,
there is scarcelyuone—we speak advisedly—
that can come in hailing distance of it in
point of discipline at the presenttime. The
salute on all occasions is observed by all
ranks at Camp Jewell; soldiers coming to
an o‘fiicer’s tent on duty, after saluting, re-
movetheir caps-and state their business,
standing at attention; the officers keep aloof
from the privates, and when they are ad-
dressed in the open air, invariably receive
and return the salute; officers addressing
their superiors are equally punctilious; in
one company (K) the'flrstsergeant, sitting in
bisetent door, reading a paper, obscured his
Colonel coming found the corner near him,
and instantly laid down the paper, rose and
saluted as politely as a “ regular" of three
enlistmeuts; everywhere respect was paid
and politeness returned. Those who sneer
at such a; practice as “putting oanegular
Army airs” mi ht'have witnessed the moral
resultof it in amp Jewell in 'real disci:.
pliue, after thatqf the Re ular Army of the
old Volunteer service an e close of the war,
that we htwe yet seen in the United Stam. In
all cases where the strict etiquette of. the
service was violated by privates, it was cvis.
dently done in innocence. not carelessness};
and this reminds us to give a hint to com-
pany commanders of the Fourth on a little
matter in salufingfin which the greener
members of their commands need mstruc
tion. Some of the men, we'noticed, in; the
company streets, saluted their officers while
sitting down. This is improper. The reg-
ulations prescribe that the soldier shall drop
his occupation and rise, when saluting an
officer. but having done it, need not repent
the salute while the officer remains near, ex-
‘ccpt when addressing or being addressed.
A salute, sitting down, is only proper from
a superior to an inferior, in answering the-
other’s salute. This matter, properly at-
tended to,' the etiquette of the Fourth will
be greatlyimproved ; and if the officers fur-
ther impress upon their men that working
parties, when on duty around the tents of
ofi‘lcers, especially field ofiicers,'sbould be si-
lent, or only converse on their necessary
work in low tones, the regulars themselves
‘could do no better than this regiment of
green, country boys serving voluntarily.
.The next encampment we feel confident
that such will be the case in the’ Fourth.
One little matter showed how quick they
Were to correct their faults. On the arrival
of the morning. train we noticed some dozen
or more men in uniform lounging at the‘de-
pot, the inen off guard with passes, as it
turnedout.~ They were perfectlyquiet and
orderly. but such a sightis not an gestive of
good discipline to civilians. _ entiouing
' the matter to the ' Colonel, he seemed
much ' annoyed at it. On our return
in the evening train, not a solitary soul in.
uniform was to be seen in town, and the
camp might have been in Arizona for occular
evidence of its existence. The cold'water
rule seems to have been rigidly observed,
and the consequencewas that the only pris-
oners in the guard-house were citizens, row-
dy boys caught running the guard to make
mischief. TWO of these Were tied up spread-
eagle fashion to the fence for several hours,
and when they were let down they made

children. To have decided otherwise would
have been a wrong inflicted on them, and a
disgrace to the district. ;
Think of it. A district having over :1 mil-
lion of dollars on the Grand List owes $13,-
000 on its school property worth thrice that
sum. Is the debt intolerable, oppressive, or
even a serious liability ? Probably a one-
cent tax would more than pay it. Let us
put our hands in our pockets, as we daily
do, for the sake of our children. “No!"
any Messrs. Penny-Wise and Pound-Foolish.
“ Sell the front lots of the children’s home-
stead and pay the debt.” What if the chil-
dren’s house he thus thrown into the shades
of obscurity behind shops or tenement
houses, and their play grounds encroached
upon? They are weak and cannot help
t’iemselves. So let us manfully rob and de-
spoil'them. - '
Apply the proposition to other. public or
to private grounds, and how does it appear?
Town and Borough taxes are burdensome.
Then sell the lots in front of our beautiful
Town House, and on the Green, and Union
Square, and so relieve the peeplc of tuxa:
tion. How many citizens are in debt, and
taxedfor family expenses, the support and
educatidn of children! Then let them sell
their flout yards and home lots for building
sites. Will they do it? ; ’
Nol Rather let the school grounds be
graded, fertilized, sown with grass and flow?
ers, or planted with trees, and made a public
ornament, and a" pride and joy to the chil-
dren. Let the school itself be cherished and
improved. Let the primary department be
supplied with an additional and greatly
needed teacher, that the little ones may be
thoroughly‘cared for and well started.
And let us not deny to competent teachers '
the; just and even generous compensatibn
paid to oflicers, superintendents, and book-
keepcrs in banks, mauuf'actories, and stores,
and to engineers and master mechanics in
shops. These places might all be filled by
cheaper incumbents. But valuable services
must be well remunerated. The cheapest
are often the most expensive in the end. *
