THE BRIO IT.
The result of the election on Tuesday last,
--' throughout the Union, has been unexpected-
ly "glorious. In the language of the Woe
“it is unprecedented and overwhelmin8-" It
does not appear at this writing that Mr.
Greeley has carried Over six states, while
Pennsylvania rolls up a majority for Grant
of nearly 130,000.

The election passed ofi‘ quietly, but the
town was thoroughly canvassed by both
parties, resulting in the largest vote ever
polled here—2105. The “Liberals" were
specially active, and urgent in getting out
the “full democratic vote." The following
is the result :—

MASSACHUSETTS. »
“Liberal" Republicanism did not flourish
any better in old Masssceusetts than else-
where. The Republicans swept the State,
as usual carrying about everything. All
the Republican congressmen are elected,
and Mr. Banks can go back to the shoe-
maker’s bench. ‘
The executive council is wholly republi-
can. There is' but one liberal chosen to the
senate and not over twentyofive to the house,
as against five liberals and fifty democrats
last year. .

We give full returns from this State, else-

Gen. Hawleywas elected over W. W. Eaton,

The “Home of Horace Greeley" gives
Grant 50,000 majority, elects the patriot
Gen. Dix as Governor, and twenty four out
of thirty-three Congressmen. Our old
Mend Gen. Stewart L. Woodford is elected
from the third District. Fenton ought to
resign'and go fishing. ' One of the greatest
triumphs of the day was the election of
Havemeyer, (reform,) as Mayor.

The old Democratic State voted for Grant,

The October election settled the old Key-
Stone State, and this election seems to have
gone by default. At last accounts the
majority had reached over 130,000 more
than in 1868, and somebody says that "The
Quakers have only commenced voting.”

' One of the most gratifying results of the
overwhelming victory in Connecticut, is the
triumphant election of Gen. Hawley to Con-
gress in the Hartford district. There is no
part of the State where the General has
more or heartier friends than here, and if
our people have ever “loved Home more,
they never loved Cmsar less," and now
heartily rejoice at his success. We predict
for Gen. Hawley a career in Congress most
creditable to himself, and to the State and
Nation. ‘
.~———-———
Look on this Prediction, then on that.
We take special delight in republishing
the following prediction made by Senator
'Ferry in a letter which we published last
July, and which “ many” of the opposition
accused us, at the time, of eoncocting, they
declaring that the Senator was not such a
“crazy fool” as to risk such a statement :-
NORWALK, July 20, 1872.
DEAR SIR : * * * * *
I support the Grant and Wilson ticket, Be-
fore it was made I had expressed ' my
opinion of Mr. Greeley as a candidate. I
have not changed it. By November it will
be found that the opinion of the country has
settled in the same direction. Make your
mind easy about Connecticut. The State
will give to General Grant, under present
circumstances, a larger majority than it did
four years ago.
Yours, truly, O. S. FERRY.
How" will this prediction compare with
that of the “great statesman,” Horace Gree-
ley, upon his return from his “triumphal”
tour through the West, when he assured his
friends that he was sure to carry Pennsylva-
nia, Indiana and Ohio: also New York State
by more rather than less than 100,000 ma-
jority. ‘

’ Jubilee Singer-l.
The famous jubilee singers of Fisk Uni-
versity, Nashville, Tenn., under the auspices
of the American Missionary Association will
_ visit South Norwaik next Wednesday even-
ing, Nov. 13th, at Military Hall. These
singers have extorted praises a Patti might
covet. . They come highly recommended not
only by the press, but by many eminent and
distinguished men who are loud in their
praises. The proceeds of the concert will
be applied for the benefit of Fisk University,
of which these singers are students. hFail
not to hear them sing, for it is one of those
rare treats which comes of a lifetime. For
particulars see advertisement in another

Rev. Mr. Dunham, declining a secretary-
ship ofthe American Tract Society, and the
urgent solicitation of several Congregational ‘
churches in New England. has decided to
accept the pastorate of the West Presby-
terian church in Binghamton, N. Y .—a new
church, in a rapidly 7 growing portion of the
city, soon to be organized by a colony from
.the First Presbyterian church, (Dr. Gullio
ver‘s). He is to commence labor there about
the first of January, when it is expected the
new chapel, now in process of erection, will
be completed. Salary for the first year, with
promise ofvinércase, $2,000 and the use of a
house. _
During his sojourn in Norwaik, Mr. Dun-‘
ham has endeared himself to all who have
had the good fortune to make his acquain-
tance. Nor has this affectionate esteem been
limited to Nerwalk, but has extended to all
the surrounding towns. It is stated that at
Darien and at' Stratford, where he has
preached, his permanent settlement would
have been eagerly sought if it promised ac-
ceptance on his part. The esteem and ad-
miration of our' own people for Mr. Du'nhaln
seems to have increased rather than dimin-
ished, even since his withdrawal from the
temporary charge of his church here.
‘ Prof. Gardner, the soap man, made the
opening speech at the Grant meeting at
Military Hall last Monday evening, and
sang a song at the conclusion of Mr.
Thomas’s stirring address. Election day
the Professor went to Ridgefield, and get-
ting on aidry goods box gave such a terrible
excoristion. to rum and democracy that
nothing saved a riot but the potency of his
soap in washing away the passions as well
as dirt of his democratic, auditors. He ex-
pects soon to lecture at Military Hall.

Daniel Bates, who was standing infront,
tearing out one eye, and blowing off both

UNCLE Torr’s Carina—If there is any play
on the American stage which the people
never tire of witnessing, that play is;“Uni:le
Tom’s Cabin.” Especially interesting is it
when _it is performed by a company of
artistes who are equal to the emergency. Mi:
Harry G. Clarke’s company has produced it
here several times, and always with good
satisfaction. This company is to play at‘
the Opera House next Monday evening
when Mrs. Howard, the original Topsey,

‘ That Uta-Hill Sewer.
. No attempted improvement in our
Borough has caused half the imprecations
if not profanity of our West avenue sewer.
It was false in theory and an outrage on en-
.‘neering skill in its execution. But the
most serious wrong of all, is the attempt to
fasten its cost upon adjacent property. The
Borough is as much obliged in luw,and jus-
tice to carry ofi'_ijs surface water‘as to main-
tain highways, and yet in the present read-
ing of our charter it is made compulsory
upon the authorities to assess contiguous
property. Were it not for this provisionour
present Boardwouid abate it, for its injus-
tice is admitted by them. We have to re-
quest therefore that all parties aggrieved
will call at the GAZETTE Ormcn, and sign a
petition to be presented to our next legisla-
- ture, amending our charter in this particular,
:and relieving those who have thus been so
unjustly assessed.

BOSTON’S GREAT FIRE, _‘
' - A fire whichbroke out pbout seven o’clock
Saturday evening and burned till near five
o’clock Sunday evening, has utterly - wiped
out the heaviest business section of that?!
ofBostbn. The. areé'burnedbter is a ut
80 acres, and the total loss in buildings and‘
goods estimated at from eighty to a hundred
mflhbm of dollars. What effect this is to
have upon the financial interests of the
whole country, and especially upon those
insurance companies which Were so heavily
involved in the Chicago losses, cannot be
definitely conjectured. The prevalence of the
horse disease rendered the movements of
fire apparatus diflcult, and the removal of
goods next to impossible. The district
burned ranged from State street, on the
North, around Washington, Redford, and
Summer. tothe docks. Foster’s wharf,where
the Sanford line of Bangor steamers lay, was
destroyed. Montague’sprinting press ware-
house, in Federal street, where the presses
in our oflee are now manufactured, seems
to have been destroyed. The finest granite
blocks in the city, if not in the world, were
in this burnt district, and the stone snapped
and crumbled to atoms with the terrible
heat. The aid and sympathy of the whole
country will be ‘ extended the sqfi'erers and
yet so terrible a loss must result in ruin to
many. The dry goods, leather and wool
trade seem to have been the greatest sufi'er-
ers. Few casualties are reported, and ' the
distress to families can bear no cemparison
to Chicago, where thousands were rendered
homeless, and driven shelterless‘ to the lake
and prairie to escape the sea of fire.
The buildings on Summer, Howley, Arch,
Otis, High, Matthews, Leather, and Frank
lin Streets, Winthrop Square, Chauncey,
Perkins, Pearl Place, Gridley, Norton
Place, Pearl. Wendell, Bath, Washington
Avenue and Hartford streets are entirely
destroyed. Probably not ten houses are
standing in any condition in all of the
streets. The following were partially des-
troyed: Devonshire, Broad, Congress, Lin-
dall. Sturgis, Federal and Battery March.
It is safe to say that a greater amount of
wealth stood on this district than on a simi-
lar area of this continent. Not only was it
solidly built over with magnificent edifices
of trade and commerce, but they were stored
with fabrics vastly exceeding the cost ofthe
buildings.
MONDAY Moments.
Larissa—Another fire broke out shortly
after midnight, in Winter street, near Cen-
tral place. This endangered Music] Hall,
where is the Great Organ. A gas explosion
stopped the supply of gas to some parts
of the city including the Associated Press
ofiice, which interfered with the making
up of dispatches by the reporters. A still
later dispatch speaks of a fire in stores
which are on Washington street, near the
corner of Summer. This may be the fire
previously located on Winter street, which
is in the same neighborhood.
5 A. 1r.——The fire is now supposed to be
under gdod control and unless a very strong
wind should spring up no more fresh fires
. are apprehended.
Insurance Louol.
Our Nomaik Insurance Company is
again very fortunate, and loses nothing by
the Boston fire. The Fairfield County
will, not exceed $35,000 or $40,000. The
Hartford companies, and the leading New
York companies seem to be all right, but
the Boston and other Massachusetts copa-
nies will be seriously impaired if not bank-
rupted.
The Union Mfg.- Company’s agency in
Boston was destroyed, but we do not learn
to what extent the company sufi‘ers, prob-
ably not seriously.

The Woman Voter.
Mrs. Sarah M. T. Huntington, as an-
nounced by us last week, had her case
argued before Judge Minor at Bridgeport.
Senator Ferry appeared for the Registrars,
and defended their assumption of, a right to
go behind the action' of the Selectmen, in
leaving her name off the voting list, because
to allow a woman to vote was contrary to
the Constitution of Connecticut, and there-
fore an not null and void in itself. He took
the further ground that to admit this act
valid, was to empower Selectmen of- any
town to alter the Constitution of r'the7Slate
at will, a thing preposterous. Messrs. Wood-
ward & Perry appeared for Mrs. H., and in.-
sisted in quite lengthy and ingenious. orgu-
ments—the chiefpoint beingethat admitting
the Sefictmen to have erred, the Registrars
had transcended their powers in revising the
Selectmen’s action, die. Their arguments
did not extend to the 14th sud 15th Amend-
ments, as was generall “ supposed they

their rejoicings until after midnight.
On Friday evening last, the South Nor-

victory, and headed by the City Band
marched through the principal streets and
then up-iown. The illuminations were a
repetition of Monday night, and were wit-
nessed and admired by crowds of people.
In the procession, the motto, “With Malice
towards none,'wiih Charity for all,” was
prominent, while the leading feature was
the closing-a carriage containing the Pres-
ident of the Grant and Wilson club riding
side by side with, the President of the
Greeley club, and two prominent Grant
men.

The final demonstration of the campaign
by the Tanners‘ and Boys in Blue, last week
Monday night, was an exceedingly fine af-
fair. when we consider that it was limited
entirely to our home companies. The line
formed promptly, and moved over the line of
march as advertised. The New York Filth
Regimenf Band headed the procession,
which consisted of the Norwaik Tann ers,the
South Norwaik Boys in Blue, the “Imperial
Band,” and a delegation from Somewhere
comprising all races, classes, colors, cos-
tumes and everything else. A wagon, on
which was a Skim-.WIIIL sail, labeled “This
boat for Salt River on Nov. 5th,” and con-
taining a trunk marked“l-I.G." and an in-
' dividual closely resembling the philosopher,
attracted much attention. As the proces-
sion passed the Greeley. club room, Horace
raised his hat and bid aisd farewell to the
assembled Liberals—all ofwhich was touch-
ing in the extreme. All along the line of
' march, the residences of Republicans were
illuminated,—in many cases in a specially
handsome-manner, and fireworks were the-
quently set 00‘. (The illuminations Were so
general that we are forced to omit any
special mention.) The beautiful sight was
witnessed by large crowds of people, and
the boys were everywhere handsomely re-
ceived, responding constantly with cheers.
After the parade all the participants were
supplied with excellent refreshments, in
paper bags, at the school grounds, and coffee
atthe residence of Mr. D. R. Selleck—all of
which was provided by the good citizens of
South Norwalk. '
' The Greeley club also made a par'ade,with
the City Band,the same evening, following
in the wake of the above procession.

seems to be really necessary, and involves
but slight expense, we presume therejwill be
no objection. -
Last Monday evening while the proces-
sion was moving up town, Military Hall
was opened, and crowded to its utmost ca.
pacity, and Rev. Mr. Thomas made a rous-
ing speech which was received with great
enthusiasm. Prof. Gardner also made a
speech and sang a song, and the meeting
was-pronounced the best of the campaign.

Harrow, Nov. 8-Gen. HawIey was
serenaded to-night. In response, he said:
“Now if the Republican party would
thithfullyservo a eonfiding nation and retain
its power, it must conduct its relations with
foreign nations upon the highest principles,
collect the revenue carefully disburse it hon-
estly, keep ex _
honorable lim t, perfect the banking system,
return 'to specie payments, furnish a uniform
and stable currency, protect the American
citizen, however humble at home as well as
abroad: observe well the limit between
State and national authority; deal wisely,
firmly, kindly, and just! with the Indians;
honor the purity of the allot box: scou e'
bad men out of office and out ofthe counc' s
of the party; oncoura e the honest efforts of
labor to establish tter relations with
capital; perfect a reform of the civil service
as well by a higher tone of sentiments as by
a_ technical system. In short be alive to the
fhct that this is the nineteenth century, and
that the partv which would govern the
leading nation must hourly watch for the
constantly comic opportunities to serve
the good cause oft e world’s better future.“
It is easy to break the Republican party -
into warring fragments within six months,
It is easy to retain four-fifths of its.best
elements in an organization that shall
govern the country for a generation to come.

heroes. of the war who have since been
About ,releven little spoken of, though' not forgotten. He
was nine years ago one of the most promi-
nent military figure in the country. His
was a soldier’s life from his boyhood up.
He was born in Cadiz, Spain, in 1816. His
father was consul of the port. In 1885 he
was graduated at West Point. Entering
the artillery, he served for a short time in
the Seminole war in Florida, and in 1886
resigned his commission and entered the
civil service of the government as an assist-
ant cngiueer on the survey of the delta of
the Mississippi. He was engaged as a
surveyor unli11842,whe_n he was re-appoint-
ed to the army as second lieutenant of
topographical engineers. While holding
this rank he was employed on the northern
border and elsewhere, and at the breaking
out of the war with Mexico he was station-
ed in Texas. He was engaged in several of
the Mexican battles and was breveted first
lieutenant for gallant conduct at Monterey.
Continuing in the service of the government
he rose to a captaincy of engineers, which
rank he held at the breaking out of the
rebellion. He was appointed brigadier-
general of volunteers, August 31, 1861, and
took command ofa brigade of the Pennsyl-
vania reserve corps, which was stationed on
the right of the lines before Washington
until June, 1802. The first action of the
warin which he was engaged tookplace at
Dranesviile, Vu., in December, 1861. He
took partin the peninsular campaign during
the summer of 1862, was present at the
Mechanicsviile and Gaine‘s Mill engage-
ment, and was severely wounded at the
battle of Glendale, June 30, of that year.
In two months he recovered and went into
the campaign in northern Virginia. Fora
few days in September, 1862, he was in tent-
porary command of the army of the Poto-
mac, and in November he' was promoted to
be major general of volunteers. He was
present at South Mountain and Antietam
and in December took command of the Fifth
corps, which he held in the battles of
Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville. '
0n the eve of the battle of Gettysburg, he
was'appointcd to the command of the army
of the Potomac, which he continued to hold
until the close offlic war. He directed all
the important actions in Virginia, and was
present when Lee capitulutcd April 9, 1865.
He received a brigadier-generai‘s conimis;
sion in the regular army on the field of
.Gettysburg, and was appointed majOr-gen-
erai in the'army. August 1804. After the
surrender at Appomattox he took command
of the military division of the Atlantic,
which he held for over a year. August 6,
1860, he was appointed to command the de-
partment of the East, with headquarters at
Philadelphia, which position he continued
to hold until his death. Harvard College
conferred the degree of LL. D. on him in
1805, and he was also a member of several
learned societies. He was'one of the gen-
,erals who escaped from all political combi-
nations. He was, as a commander, popular
officer. He commanded the Army of the
Potomac during all of Grant’s Virginia
campaign. The nation will forget him only
when it forgets Gettysburg. '

To the Editor of the Nomalk Gordie :—
MY DEAR SIR—Permit me through the
columns of your largei y circulated and high-
ly influential journal, to say that, on my re-
turn to this city after an absence of nine
years, I fortunately engaged board where I
had the honbr of meeting the Rev. B. A.
Patterson, pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist
church, and that in his resignation the
church has lost a good pastor, an eloquent
preacher, and a faithful minister of the gos-
pel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
God bless Brother Patterson.

ly popular Town Clerk. Of course I cant
say what he did mean to do, on the occasion
of Mrs. Huntington’s triumph, but from his
well known gallantry and admiration for
our enslaved and disfranchiscd sex, we
ladies did all believe that his congratulations
were as sincere as any of the rest of the
Board and we hope he will not rob us of the
privilege of still admiring him for honestly
sympathizing with us in our wrongs, as we
know, in the secrets of his heart, he truly
does. ’ SARAH JANE.
