THE ELECTION. -
‘ On Monday opt, the good people-0t this

firm adherence to Republicanism, 0':- a falter-
ing in our patriotic usages. ; Our candidates
have been selected with care and disbrimina-

put in nomination, and eminently deserving
triumphant election.
MR. HAVEN, of New London,

financial skill which has proved .him the
personal friend of every man who pays taxes
intheState. ' V ' _
, Junon WI. -T. Mmon, of Stamford,
our candidate‘ for Congress, is ~ an earnest,
faithful and able exponent of Republican
principles, ;-Iu everyaposition of responsibil-
sibility and trust he has acquitted himself
withhonor and credit to our State. There
notihlly believe that he would make'an
.hhusuallyable, popular and faithful repre-
sentative in Congress. Stamford has in-
vériably shoWn its appreciation, of his wOrth
stlfi‘rages;_and we greatly mistake if another
“burst"of' party lines is not made in his.
than his pirty vote in this county.

morning, was quite a surprise to most Sena-
tors; .zThe National Republican ssysvthat he
was inducedto this‘act by the unanswersble
speech: of Senator Ferry, of Connecticut.
Frequent canvasscs ofthe Senate were made
and it was found; “.3. re‘sult‘of Mr. Ferry’s

friends that ‘at the latest'tnoment on Monday
morning he prepared ;and sent in hiS'reslg-_
nation. This caused quite a sensational
flutter on the floor and in the galleries, and
spoiled several prepared speeches as'well.
It was'nnderstood thatthe closing argument
accorded senator Morton as chairman 'of the
committee would have‘beeu one of the ablest
efforts of his- senatorial career. _It was
thought and freely suggested that the are.

asmuch a bid for the recognized leadership

ator Clayton, of Arkansas. This occupied.
but .little- time, as the Report of the Com».

EgySen’ator Patterson’s case .was then
taken up and discussed pro and con. The
New Hampshire statesmanhadprepared a
“statement,“ which he desired should _be
spread upoa’thejournal and go out with the
committee’s report. - The latter wish was
compliedwith, but as he was not a member
of tsunami. it was thought an unwise pre-
cedent to allow him to print his views inthe
curreatCongressional Record. Some of‘h‘is
friends think *he has been unfairly .dealt

permitted‘to‘share in the great oyster‘ bed
011‘ Bridgeport harbor, and have held a con-
vention to "consider the matter. Strong
resolutions were passed denouncing the
action of the Connecticut. oystermen; claim-
ing that the beds are located {within the
bounds of NewYorkState; that’the Con.
necticut men have'no right whatever, .to.
work the bed; and that “while we are and
have ever been‘willing to share our rights
and privileges incommcn-with'our“ neigh-
bors, if 'the- oyslermen of Connecticut. at.
tempt to deprive us of or» curtail those
rights, that we, the oystermen and goitize'ns‘
of the State of New York, are determined
to resist further cncroucbments, and assert.
and maintain those rights which belong to
us." _ ’ . .
Also, “That Such grounds in this State'as
have been taken-up and planted at Norwalk
Islandand other places by .the oystermen
of Connecticut, be reclaimed from them for-
the use of our owncitizens." , ' > .'
Committiees were appointed. to confer
with the oystcrmePOf City Island, Oyster
Bay,‘Little Neck, Staten Island, and other
places, and to solicit their cooperation. L
The Connecticut o'ystermen will undoubt-
edly be ready to maintain their rights in

expensive controversy will result if the

ALWORLD’S FAIR BROUGHT TO OUR VERY DOORS
"Phoenix T.,don’t you see,
Just coming out the smoke, '
AgtIin unlhrlsto all the world.
A show that is no fihoax."
“Ten times larger than ever i" So says a
fellow of the New York, limes, .who has
thoroughly interviewed it, and is, therefore,
good authority. A “procession three miles
s'olid mile-and a half, that is certainly “ten
times" longer than most of the shows stretch
out to, that visit Norwalk. Barnum’s pro-
cession must be estimated on the principle
of the Egyptian crocodile which he uSed to
exhibit in his museum. ‘Thisamphibious
monster of the Nile was twenty-two feet
long l—that is from the tip of his. nose to the
tip of his tail, and from the tip of his tail to
the tip of his nose inclusively. Wheulyou
come to think of it, a crocodile eleven'feet
long is a monster, and, according to all ac-
counts, so is this present new mammoth
enterprise. .
, ' The managers announce that the entire
establishment 'will.-travel :by railroad, re-
quiring a hundred cars. There are 100,000
curiosities; 1,500 animals, birds, reptiles,
sea. lions, and other marine monsters ; 2,000
men and horses, twelve, gorgeotrs tableau
and statuary chariots {100 gentifull ' 1,33

in the open streets, on elevated vehicles,"
within view of all, and many other rare and
interesting features Worth going fifty miles
to see.
The exhibition will begiveu in a dozenor
more pavilions, one large'hi podromc tent
being large enough to hold 1 ,000 people, in
- which will be seen three greatcirc'us troupes,
giving simultaneous performances, in three
separate and distinctarenic circles, without
any extra charge. . .
Among the leadiu features are Prof. Fa-

laughs, sings and talks perfectly in all
languages ; the'monster sea lions, wild Fiji

which are high and dry, and a very pleasant

Tenth District have nominated Nathaniel
Wheeler of‘Bridgeport‘tor Senator, who
bein one of the Directors of theNew York

oppose anything asked for, by the Parallel

he was nominatedifor that express purpose

three sons and seven daughters, all of whom
lived to middle life, and most of them to
three score and ten, and'several of them to
be upwards of 80. His daughter Sarah,

"to congratulate the old lady, and to have a
pleasant reunion“ There were about 60

an excellen’t’and bountiful repast. Besides

R’s maternalr grandmother Scott ‘of . Ridge-

may live to that age, buI she looks feeble,

of Daricn, of 200"members,' has three mem—
bers upwards of_90, and several others who
.are in‘their 90th year, and many otherswho
have passed their three score and ten. It
