For Congress.
lion. J as. S. Taylor of Dnnbury, who was
so quietly nominated at Bridgeport last week,
as the Greenbacx candidate for Congress, is
a life long democrat, who has tv'vicc, at ‘_ least
represented his town and the 11th Senatorial
District in ' our State Logislaturc. Aside
from his poli teal acquirements and. ex.
pelience he is a gentleman of good business
capacities and popular personal qualities.
He. was the builddr and the present proprie-
tor of the Danbury Opera House, and has
been more or less interested in the Hattillg
interests of Danbury. He will be likely to
draw off quite a large vote from the regular
democratic vote for Congressman. For tlus
reason, if for no other, the democracy of this
District cannot afford to provoke ill-feeling .-
and the quarrel sure to follow upon the
contemplated throwing overboard of Con-i
(1 justice,
gressman Warner, who by rigllt an . .

Railroad. We have since ’ been shown a
photograph of a huge stone quarried by Mr.
M. 87 feet long, 6 feet wide, and only 1!; feet
thick. The peculiarity of this quarry is‘that
granite of the finest quality lays in sheets or
layers of exact and uniform thickness similar
to the ordinary sheet blue stone quarries.
Whitney has taken some remarkable views
of the quarry and the excavated fiat stones,
and is going up in a few days- to take more.‘
Mr. Mower is now getting out two stones 20

The Borough Meeting.
The Borough meeting, last Friday, gra-
ciously voted to lay an eighteen inch sewer
down Elm street, conditioned that the entire
cost thereof be refunded the Borough by an
assessment on the property in the vicinity.
As it has been about ten years since this sew-
sume the residents of Elm street will be duly
greatful for the conspicous generosity of the
Borough vote. But asthe West avenue sew-
er is utterly unable to'carry the water already ~
flooding it at 'timcs, we don't see how this
action of the Borough is to relieve Elm street
unless another sewer is cut down,say through

Our old friend ‘BUI'llllg D. Purdy, Esq.,

was in town last evening enquiring for the
Head Centre of the new Workingman’s
party which held its meeting at Lockwood's

A sort of impromptu meeting of. “work-
ingmen" was held at Lockwood’s Hall,
Saturday evening. The attendance Was fair,
but no one seemed posted as- to the real
object of_ the meeting or as to what is im-
plied iu the name of “\Vorkingmen's party.”
Mr. John Jerman was chosen chairman, and
Joseph Kearney, Secretary. Several ad-
dresses were made by local speekers, chiefly
by men known for their unchanging fidelity
to the Democratic party, and who invariably
work for its interests. Those who sought to
lead, if lioncst,_werc evidently beyond their
depth —groping in the dark for the impossi-
ble: A committee was finally appointed. to
draw up resolutions to present at another
meeting to be held this week.

Reunion 01"- the 8th Conn. C. V.
The gallant old Eighth Connecticut met in
their annual reunion at Music Hath-City, last
'l'ucsdny. Capt. James L. Russell, President
of the Association, called. the meeting to
order and Col. 1’. L. Cunningham, and Rev.
Mr. Boole made addresses of welcome. After
the routine business was transacted, it .ths
voted on motion of Captain Jones to hold
their next reunion at New Hartford. At
Military Hall a bountiful collation had been ‘
prepared by the ladies, upon which the boys
charged in-force ,in true army style. A his—
tory of the war was afterwards read in Music
Hall by Comrade Bartram, whereupon he
ed regimental historians for the ensuing year,
and a historian was selected for each company.
The regiment was mustered into service
00L 5th. 1861, and left Hartford Oct. 17th,
with 1,027 men under command of Edward
Harland and P. L. Cunningham as Lieuten-
ant Colonel. The Regiment was recruited
during the war to nearly 2,000 men. In 1863
and 1864, three hundred and ten of the origi-
nal command rc-cnlistcd. Company H. 0f
Norwalk, went out with the following oili-
ccrs: Captain Douglas Fowler. First Lieut.
‘Jamcs L. Russell, Second Lieut. Thomas S.
Wood. Before the closc‘of the war Captain
Fowler was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel
of the 17th C. V. and was killed at Gettys-
burg. Lieut. Russell was made captain
of Company G, and Lieut. Weed was pro-
moted to First Lieut. of Co. II, and died
since the war. The regiment was engaged in
the battles of Newbern, Fort Macon, Antic-
tam. Fredericksburg, Fort Hugar, Walthall
Junction, Fort Darling, Cold Harbor, near
Petersburg June 15th andvhl'i’th, 1804, and
Fort Harrison. ,- , ' ‘ '
One of the interesting incidents of the
reunion was the'prescncc of the same drum
which was issued the regiment at Hartford
and carried by it throughout the war, and
which was shot by a bullet through both
heads at the battle of Antietam.
The visiting “soldier boys" left, woll satis-
fied with the “good time" and generous rc-
ecption they had enjoyed.

instantly receives a violent shock. This tip.

such terror that they no longer dare tamper
with the mysterious wires, which to their
