and eloquent exposition. of the issues be-
tween the two contending parties, and was
listened to with close and profitable atten-
tion throughout. Mr. Frye is, without ex-
ception, in our judgment, the most eloquent
and cii‘ectivc campaigner in New England;
The State of Maine may well be proud of
his well recognized fame and ablility.
Senator Bayard of Delaware, addressed
the democracy at the Opera°Housc, on Fri-
(1er evening. . His discourse was am:
and dignified, and frotn the democratic
stunt-point logical and conclusive. It was
in most marked contrast to the usual rant
and roar of the E. O. Pcrrin sort, to which
the cars of our friends have been most fa-
miliar. One of the speaker‘s points, wh ch
seemed to strike his auditors most forcibly,
was the charge tlral the want of work and
the general business paralyis was in come
q‘dC‘JCC of our having lost the South as a
markct- for our productions, and that the
Republican party was'responsible for that
condition of things. This was received by
his auditors, apparently as the exact state of
ali'airs, and yet there comes in the ugly his-
torical fact that the southern people de-
stroyed themselves. Thatthey would more-
over have destro ed the nation as well.but
for the opposin” ' force of the Republican
party. And herein lies our greatest danger
in permitting the ascendency of the demo-
cratic party again in this country. The re-
bellion and destruction of the South were
the legitimate fruits of long years of demo-
cratic—rule. In fine, the democracy brought
war and destruction upon the country ; the
Republican party fought for and saved the
imperiled Union. But Senator Bayard’s
Sth‘Cil was free from demagogical artifices,
and an able, respectful and earnest presenta-
tion of his side of the political questions
now agitating the political mind. The Sen-
ator was entertained by .Mayor Daskam,
and must have been gratified by his recep-
tion in this Republican stronghold—that
\‘l'as. ‘ '

SPRING FLownns.—Fair hands placed a
gorgeous display of potted flowers in full
bloom, in front of the preacher-’s desk at the
First Congregational church on Sunday
last. X‘s was music to the ear and the'ser-
mon to’llr‘e soul, so were these beautiful
flowers olhe eye and sense: There was an
eloqucnte in these blossoms even more sub-
tle and anctifying to the worshiper than
in any sloken words. Ever may these

and sanctiying helps to Christian worship

of LEVI CLAK, one of our oldest business
men and met respected citizens. For many
years, durin, a generation gone by, Mr.
Clark was in leading Watch Maker and

sequently he “18 fora number of years Dep-

On Friday, Mr. Henry Bodwell, a worthy
citizen of South Norwalk, who has been in
the employ of Messrs. Crofut & Knapp,
was stricken down,while at his work in
the shop, with apoplexy, and almost instant-
ly expired. He lmrl rm..- m usual health,
and at dinner was more than ordinarily jo-
vial—so m'uch so, indeed, as to cause re-
mark by the famrly. On'his return to the
shop from dinner, he ,complained of not
feeling well, and in a few moments after
fell back and expired with ‘a gasp. Mr.
Bodwcll was a native of Danbury, and an
intimate friend of Mr. Levi Clark, who ex-
pired only the day before, and whose sud-
‘den death, no doubt, had deeply impressed
him. Surely,“ in the midst of life we are

in'death.”

Some amusing scenes occur occasionally
even before such a grave as the
“Board of Selectmen,” and inseam of
the grave and reverend Town Clerk.- Last
Saturday morning a young man of Irish
parentage applied to be made; some discus-
sion ensued concerning a friend of his, and
he cooly walked out, remarking that when
he got readyto be made a voter he would
send in his name himself: In the evening
he came in again,all smiles, and said he
would thmade to please After the
oath had been administered by the bland
official, he pulled down his hand and eager-
ly said: .“I beg your pardon,but now I
want to ask you gentleman a question—am
I obliged to vote every time there is an elec-
tion ‘2" Upon being assured in the kindest
possible manner that he was not, he retired
happy. .

Schuyler Colfax. _
We know our readers will rejoice to
learn that the Hon‘. Schuyler Colfax has
been engaged by our Brother’s Lodge of,
Norwalk, to give his great Oration on the
life and character of Abraham Lincoln in
this place. He is to speak at Lockwood's
Hall on the evening of Thursday the 29th
inst. and an immense gathering may be
anticipated. This is Mr. Colfax’s first
delivery of his popular lecture anywhere in
New England and as it will probably be
the only opportunity of hearing him in this
section, we have no doubt that arrange-
ments will be made to give the citizens of
adjoining towns an opportunity to come
and hear him. A train down from Dan-
bury and Ridgetleld is already suggested.

Fran—Between the hours of three and
four Sunday morning, Josiah Raymond, on
the Westport and Norwalk line, was awak-
ened by a light shining into his bedroom
window. On rising the fire was found to
be his wagon and tool house which with its
contents, were entirely consumed. Loss
about $600. Mr. Raymond’s smoke house
was also broken open and some 60Ilbs. of
Hams stolen therefrom. This certainly ex-
plains the orrgin of the fire as the dastardly
work of incendiaries.

' We met the enemy boldly and bravely in
Connecticut yesterday, and it strikes usthat
'we are theirs! Hawley and Kellogg are
defeated, andStarkweather and Barnum
elected. 'Five Sherifi‘s out of the eight

aredemoeratic by reduced majorities. It
was a straight fight, and we are beaten
solely for tho want of more Republican
votes. ‘

The State Senate will contain fourteen
democrats and seven republicans. The

jority. . ~

The Temperance men ran no separate

If our people really wish a fine perspec-

in Bridgeport, Springfield, Stamford and
other places, and we really hope they will
be appreciated here.

At the Bridge democratic caucus to nomi-
nate a Representative, George W. Cram re-
ceived nearly forty“ votes, but he was over-
shadowed by the rising young statesman at
Horse Railroad Headquarters, who received
about sixty. It was rumored that Mayor

is a mistake. The Mayor claims that' one
ofilce at a. time should satisfy an ordinary
ambition, and his only wish was to uplift
the escutcheon of East Avenue. This ac-

Cram. “Asa” was also mentioned i" “m

railroads carried too many guns for the ave-
nue, and our youthful seleetman swept the
deck. There’s a well founded suspicion that
Cram was sold out by those pledged to his
nomination. But then all is fair in demo-
ecratic politics, you know.

Winfield must deport himself with becom-

consolation,—both our Representatives are
clear-headed, clean-handed gentleme
reproachable characters, who will ' credit

This latter is'a question that should touch
