THE RESULT..
Apathy and dissatisfaction have given the
State ticket to the democracy. But our del-
egation in the next Congress will be the
same 38 in 1118318“? Mt. Barnum is returned
for this district. Judge Minor run largely
ahead of his party ticket in this part of the
District. Gen; Hawley made a gallant
fight in the first, and won a signal we-
tory. Mr. Starkweather is re-elected as
a matter or course. The most brilliant
achiev’ement of the Whole contest is the de-
feat of Mr. English in the 2d District, by
plucky and lucky Stephen W._ Kellogg.
While New Haven gives Ingersoli nearly
four thousand majority, Kellogg whips'
English on his ‘own battle-ground most
handsomely. His triumph against such odds
does much to mitigate the mortification of
all other defeats.
_ The total vote of the State is very small,
being.r 8,000 less than the vote'of a year ago.

Hartford made the slate and New. Haven
smashed it.

We elect three out of the four Congress-
men—Hewley in the First District ; Kellogg

LOSS OF THE ATLANTIC.
The harrowing details of the loss of the
White Star steamer Atlantic, will be found
on our outside. Such a criminal. ease of
parsimony, neglect and iucompetency never
before shocked the intelligence and sensibil-
ities of the wo Certainly, this holocaust
of half a thousand lives ought to result in

The Parallel railroad meeting, at Lock-
wood’s Hall, was largely attended by gen-
tlemen, eager to learn all possible particu-
lars in regard to the road. Warden Smith
presided, and several citizens made brief ad.
dresses. Several persons who were expect9
ed to speak, were unfortunately absent. Mr.
S. E. Olmstead, president of the N. Y. 85
Eastern Railway, was called upon for infor-
mation, and gave some general details in re-
sponse. No effort was made to obtain sub-
scriptions at the meeting, but we presume
our citizens will be called upon to contribute
the portion assessed to Norwalk.
Any one having an itchillg for>“fightiug
the tiger” in Wall street, may learn a profit-
able lessou from the report of the creditors’
committee in the Scranton Bank case, at
New Haven. In two and a half years’ legit-
imate banking business they made over two
hundred thousand dollars profits. Then go-
ing to Wall street to “operate,” they lost, in
six months,$18,000 in North West-Preferred,
$142,000 in Union Pacific, $40,000 in
Western Union, $25,000 in Maryland Coal,
$104,000 in Rock Island, $18,000 in Wabash.
,Totai six months’ loss, $347,000 l The com-
mittee pathetically and truthfully say :——“It
only adds new proof ,to the volumes already
written that gambling in *Wall street sooner
or later brings ruin to all who practice it.

THIRTEEN’I‘H ANNUAL REPORT
‘ ' or THE

. This isjthe thirteenth anniversary of the:
Bible Society of Norwalk and its Vicinity.
Many of us can remember when this Society
was formed. Many of us have watched it's
doings, with pride and gratification, from
the time it was founded to the present. We
honor the names of these who have gone
from us, who, while living in this communi-
ty, watched over the interests ct this Society
and labored so faithfully to promote its
noble work. We do and shall honor also
'the name of him who’has, for so many years,
taken such a vital interest in everything
that pertained to the ‘woil-bcing of this
Society, the name of Rev. 0. W. Gates, who
has,-for so many years been such an accept-
able pastor of the church in which we ecle-
brate this, our anniversary, and who now,
in the Providence of God, is called upon to
leave us and seek health in a home far away
10w ard the setting sun. Honor them 7 They

but who can refuse to aid in the distribution

whatsoever things are. of good reporti"
Can any one who loves his God or. his
eliowmen refuse to give or to do for this'
object ? _
During the past year but little has been
done in the way of holding public meetings.
The Society has kept up its organization by
meetings of the standing committee, and in
this manner an interest has been sustained
in the important work of distributing the
Bible in this vicinity. '
We are glad to be able to report an in-
fhurches in this community, and as we hope,
and have reason to believe, is destined to
influence many not now within the pale of
the churches. Perhaps thisfdoes not result‘
from any efforts made by this Society to
distribute the’ Word and induce men. to
study its pages and obey its precepts. It is
not necessary to assign any reason for it.
If the fact is so, we have a right and it is
our duty to take advantage of it.
The President- of this Society,Dr. Asa Hill,
and other members of the Standing 'Com:
mittee, have had in ccntemplation for some
time, and partly matured a plan by which
the churches embraced within this Organiza-
tion should be asked to employ, constantly,
for a term of years, some suitable person to
go from house to house, and carry the bless.-
ings of the Word to those who can,ap-"
parently, be reached in no other way. We
hope funds may be raised and this plan
carried out, and greatgood result from it.
As is suggested,this is a most auspicious
time for commencing such an undertaking.
The children and youth of the churches in
this vicinity, as well as those through-
out the length and breadth of our land,
have recently commenced together, at
the beginning of the Bible, with the intention
for years, each scholar studying, at the
same time, the same sublime truths in the
same portion of the Bible. What a wonder-
ful spectacle ! The children and 'youth of
the nation, a. vast army, extending from
Maine to California, including the young in
almost every village and hamlet in our
broad domain,united as the children and
youth of one church! Seetarianism for-
gotten, the Word of God alone remembered
studied,honoredl This fact, entirely new
in the history of God’s people, cannot fail to
purpose, more harmony of . feeling between
churches of different creeds than has been
seen heretofore. ' It shows that liliese
various churches united inthis organization
can be trusted'to operate together in. any
enter prise having for its object the distribu-
tion of the Word of God. Besides, under
this system of instruction,by uniform les-
sons, we believe 'thc people are becoming
better educated in the Scriptures, and-will
be more willing toireccive'all Who. comm
them, nct'iu any sectarian'spirit;-'hutjgply rd

"IEWWI of the depository of the
Society, it; appears that on the lst of April,
1872, the inventor of books on hand
amounted to $221.52, and since then there
have been received books to the amount ,of‘
$124.96. Sales during the year have
amounted to $88.15. ‘
The Treasurer, Dr. James E. Barbour,
reports as follows z—Paid, during the year,
the American Bible Society, $280.98; ex-
penses, $3.2. Received from the churches,
$81.67. Received from the’saie of books,
$74.91. Amount on hand at the present
time, $290.68. . , -
Now, in conclusion, let us not forget the
character of the Book whose claims we ad-
vocate. “The Bible is the word of God con-i
cerning the ways of God with man.” “It
shines by its own light? It borrows nothin
flom other books- Let us'read it and Study
its pages; and urge upon others to do the
same. It is the source efiife, and hope and
joy.- ‘Huudrds of years before the birth of
