0m; Candidates !
Never did we feel a greater degree of pride
and satisfaction in the presentation of candi-
dates for the votes of our electors than at
the present time. Our State Ticket embraces
a list of names of the highest worth and
respectability. Every name thereon is a
tower of strength wherever known. Several
are personally known to large numbers of
our readers, and we challenge one word of
disparagement of ' the moral worth, compe-
tency or personal deserving‘bf any one of
them. . -
Chs. B. Andrews,
our candidate for Governor is an able, honest
and' outspoken man. Let the reader con-
trast his manly letter with the dodging
cplstlc of his democratic opponent—printed
elsewhere—and the true characters of the
two men will be fairly illustrated.
David» Torrance,
candidate for Secretary of State, is a leading
lawyer of New rHaven County. The very.
soul of honor and was a brave soldier in the
late war. He is a favorite wherever known
and will run largely ahead of his ticket.
Talmadgc Baker,
candidate for State Treasurer is too well
- known in Norwalk and vicinity to need
commendation from us. He is a man neyer
seeking ollicc, yet whenever called upon ‘ to
serve his fellow citizens, always runs largely
ahead of his ticket. Outwd occasions, when
candidate for Water Commissioner, he re-
ceived chem/vote cast. His nomination is a
compliment to old Norwalk, that our citi—
zens will slgnalize by giving him a heavy
vote.
F cdcrick Miles,
candidate for Congress is a noble son of
Connecticut. Self-made, self-reliant, well
balanced, of higll character and spirit,
genial in temper, as be is able in administra-
tion, and will add strength to our ticket all
over the Fourth Congressional District. We
urge chry man to vote for him because we
believe it will promote the best welfare of
the entire public. No one need fear a con-
trast of Fnspnnlcx ' MILES, with any
democrat or any man living. His sterling
character .and personal worth elected him
Senator against a democratic majority of
over seven hundred in the 17th District. It.
is a safe rule to judgcacandidate by the
appreciation in which he is held by his
neighbors, who know him best. This is
a. hard district, bllt the unusual popularity
and exceptionally high character of our
candidate, give the most encouraging assur-
ancesof his-election, . ‘
Oliver H oyt,
candidate for Senator is one 'of~onr thoroughly
reliable and good citizens. He has served
the state fer two years in our Senate and his
.eIIpeIience, as well as 'high personal chm-ac
ter,,vvill make him a most useful as well as
creditnble Senator. Heels a. gentleman of.
large business interests, and his wealth is
. the product of ‘ his own industry and integri-
tyn‘.,His generous liberality to every good
cause, and his personal interest in every good
, work, are proverbial. The 12th Senatorial
DiStrict will honor itself more than it possi-
- bly can him, by rcclecting him by a greatly
increased majority.
, ' Asa B. _. Woodward
succeeded George A. Davenport as Judge of
Probate for the Norwalk District. He has
done excellent and satisfactory service in that
important office. It will be asad misfortune
to this Probate District should he not be re
elected. His sterling character for upright—
fleas, for painstaking carefulness, preeminent-
ly fit him for the responsible duties of Judge
of. the Orphan’s Court. This office, as we
have said, should never be permitted to. be-
come a prey to the fierce scrambles for office
and place. There is no man better-fitted for
the place in the whole District, and we trust
the vote for his retention may be . given
with" the same unanimity as it has hith-
erto been cast for his worthy predecessor,
Judge Davenport.
Fér Representatives 1
We hope our friends in all the Towns,
‘ will select their very‘best-men for Represen-
- tatives. So exceptionally strong a State
Ticket as we present for. the sufirages of the
people, should not be weakened er marred
by one single unworthy nominee.
Two years-ago the friends of E. P. Weed
were asked to give way in the democratic
Seuatolal Convention, and allow Geo. A
Hoyt to bo'nominated. This they'gencrously
did, with a pledge that Mr, Weed should,
have the nomination this" year. but' the
pledges made by tlfé‘ honest ‘Incnibcra of tho
palt'yfihsd uo’nlo‘rc' infine'nbo on the aSSClll'
blage at Stamford last Wednesday, than a
cold water pledge would have done. But. it’s
all right gentlemen and we havcto thank you
for your dayfs work. '

Suicide.
"Whom the gods wish to destroy they
first make met." It. does seems asifour
democratic friends had lost their wits. Not
only has their old time virture, but all
their former sagacity and cunning seem to
have deserted them. This has been made
particularly conspicuous in their nominations
this fa“, and in none more so than in that
of their selection for a candidate for Sena-
tor. .Of course the Republicans are grate:
ful to them for giving OLIVER Horr such
ancasy “walk ml the course,” but it does
not atone for the volume of profanity issuing
from the more sagacious leaders of the
find L. 1’.
Weed, been nominated, as he and his friends
had a right to expect he would‘be,.thc can-
vass would have been so close, that it would
have at least been spirited and lively. But
asone of the delegates reported on his re.
turn from the convention—“It wasn‘t a
democratic convention at all, bllt a rum-
seller’s convention and they cut and dried
and carried everything their own way.”
‘ This they apparently did as to nominating a
candidate, btlt they will find themselves
powerless to elect him.
1 0th District.
The democrats 'of the Bridgeport Sena-
torial District have nominated Albert Relyea
of Westport, for their candidate. Young
Relyea has all the natural qualities and at-
tributies of a good Republican, but liv
ing in Westport he of course must keep_in
with the regular democratic “mule team.”
We wish him success in business, but an
overwhelming defeat, as the candidate of
modern, straddled democracy, Wm. D
Bishop it is understood, desired the nomi-
nation, and although his name was not
withdrawn, Relyca’s friends seem to have
had the conventiOn so “set up" that the
great railroad President was defeated.
Our Republican friends have nominated
Hon. Russell Tomlinson the;father-in-law
of Mr. Bishop as theirAcandidate. He is
- one of Bridgeport’s most enterprising, and
best citizens and may even come out of
that district of democratic blackness and
darkness, the winning candidate. AsBar-
bour admonished his friends at the con-
gressional convention, “there is to be no
walk over” for the democracy this year, as
in former days. i

Jacob Turk, who went to theStamford
Senatorial Convention, made a desperate

suicidal action. Turk, however didn't scare

Barbour wants to get right out on the
stump and canvass his district by a series of
public speeches. He has so recently arrived
here that few- people outside of the Norwalk
liquor trlals,have ever even heard of him, and
the democratic voters of the district ‘ have a
right” as Patrick would say, to see him, but
let them put on their spectacles. .

The Concert.
To those who would wish to say that they
have heard the greatest lady violinist the
worldhas'ever known, we would say, go and
hear Camilla Urso this (Tuesday) evening.
It is likely to bethe last chance that the poo.
ple of Norwallr will have of hearing her, and
should be made. the most of. ' We are glad to
see that the ti$ets_are being taken rapidly,
and the indica Ions are that the house will be
well filled. We understan d that the gentle-
man-ll resident of this town—who has en-
gaged Mine. Urso, means to bring several
first-class stars’ here during the winter if he
finds that the people will support him in the
enterprise ; and we think we are safe in prom-
ising that they will do so ~especially, when
the stars are of the magnitude of the Urso.
Happy Family.

wow, that nominated» Barbour, as “Jerry
Donovan’s convention.”. Oh, the “happy

Funeral of Rev. Dennis Plath.
The violent storm of Wednesday morning
prevented a large attendance upon the func-

but many friends and neighbors were present
to testify'tllcir love and respect. The set vices
were conducted by Rev. EN. Dunning, who
phld a fitting tribute. to the character and
labors of the venerable minister. ,
Among'other facts he mentioned that his
ministry was commenced in Glastonbury and
Willimantic in this State. and bestowed
mainly in Manlllls, Syracuse and other towns
in New York. ' , .

family, on the old Fort Point Road, near Mr.
Prowitl’s, when a pain in his head, of which
he had before complained, became so violent
that he left the table, saying to his wife that
she must conduct the family worship, and
threw himself on the bed; and ill less than
an hour was dead. .
The sympathy of the few friends and
neighbors who had been so favored as to
make the acquaintance of these strangers,
who had been residents in Norwalk for so

widow and two interesting children in their
so sudden and sore bereavement. Funeral
services were conducted at their residence on
Tuesday evening preparatory to the removal
of the body toNorfolk, Va, for interment,
by Reva. Hamilton and Bissell.
Rev. Mr. Davis, pastor. of the Reformed
(Dutch) Church at Oyster Bay, L. I., who
was formerly a missionary in China, and had
long and intimately known Mr. Allmand and
his family, was in town on Wednesday, and
bore the strongest testimony to his high
character and standing as a former merchant
in Japan, where he had the fullest confidence
of the Japanese, while his home, and heart
and purse were ever open to missionaries and
all who had need. He retired from business
with an ample fortune, which has since been
lost in the disasters and wrecks of the times.

At the Democratic Senatorial Convention
of this District,-held at Stamford, last week,
after a long and bitter struggle, of something
over three hours duration, and after a series
of a halfldozen ineffectual ballots, Heman H.
Barbour was nominated by the close vote _of
8 .to 6 for Mr. Edward I’. Weed, of this
place, who was his principal opponent. On
a call to make it unanimous, Mr; Weed’s
leader in the convention voted no; so Mr,
Barbour did not get a unanimous nomination.
Slnce he has been here Mr. B. has shown
himself as being particularly anxious for
office, “his dish being always up,” refusing
nothing offered by either Clty,Borougll,Town
or District. The voters think hols altogether
too anxious for a carpet-bagger, and will
once again express that opinion at the polls.
Perhaps he will finally learn that they don’t
want him, and will not persist in constantly
pushing himself forward for. their suffrage.
People as a general thing prefer to let the of-
fice seek the man not the man seek the ofiice.

“Charles H. Thayer’s Dramatic Company
appeared in “Little Em’ly” at the Academy
of Music, last evening, to a delighted au-
dience. ‘ The play was put upon the stage
in a manner deserving the highest praise.
Mr; Charles H. Thayer appeared in the role
of Wilkins Micawber, a character which he
has made his own, and from his first entrance
on the stage, when escaping from his credi—
itors, to his setting sail for a distant land,
his humor was never-ending, and no sooner
did the audience recover from one burst of
another. Miss Mary Cary was the “Little
Em’ly,” and gave to the role a prominence,
which'the dramatist himself could not unless
aided by an actress of the highest talent."

Rescued.
During the tempest of last Wednesday,
Capt Noah Mosller, late keeper of the Nor-
walk light, and Fred S. Comstock the new
appointee, saw a small sloop sweeping down
the Sound, helpless before the gale. Her
‘tOpmast was gone, her sails all shattered and
adrift and a man on deck apparently await-
ing certain doom. The two Norwallk light
men named abovefihetantly started out in
their 24 foot sail boat for,__the rescue of the
Wreck, despite the fearful tempest. They

L. 1., and manned only by her, captain and
owner, Wm. Hemstead, loaded with earthen
flower pots and bound for New Ybrk. Being
caught in the gala he endeavored to make
Bridgeport harbor, but. lost his topmast and
sail and lost all control-of his craft. A line
was cast to the sail boat and the sloop and its
sole occupant towed in to the Norwalk light,
where Clipt. IL, who was almost exhausted,

Bye Bread.
Enrrors N onwALx Guerra ;
In reply to S'. 3., who in last weeks GA-
zn'rrn inquired for I receipe for making rye
bread, I send you the following. . '
Soak one quarter National Yeast cake until
soft in. one tablespoonful of water. Take one
pint of new milk, blood warm, and a pinch of
salt—put in the pail with yeast; add flour
and stir with wooden spoon until as thick as
stirred cake. Put. in warm place over night.
In the morning, if light, add flour to make as
still? as you can well stir it, and set to raise
again. When light, knead well, adding just
flour enough to handle, place in pans and set
,to raise in warm place. When very light
bake slow one hour. This makes one loaf.
Rye always takes longer to raise than wheat.

New CANAAN, Oct. 24th, 1878.
Emma or run GAZETTE:
I saw an inquiry in last week’s GAZETTE for
a rcceipe for making rye bread.
I want to contribute our recipe to “S. H.”
as it is a capital one and never fails to be
good.
For five medium sized _ loaves take two
quarts of new milk, one pit of water, one
teaspoonful potato yeast, one teaspoonful salt.
Heat the milk and water until luke warm,
add the yeast and salt, then stir in enough
rye flour to make a batter so that it will just
drop from the spoon. Have the pans .greasr
ed and drop in the mixture until the pans are
half full. Let these stand in a warm place
and they will be ready to bake in three hours
Bake one hour inn moderate but oven.

We would return our hearty thanks to the
Fire Department for their promptness at the
fire on our place‘, the perfect order kept by
the Fire Pohce, and to. friends that came to
our assistance in the night of our troubles,
they saved the main barn and everything
.about the place was in good order next
morning except the building burned. We
think that the Borough of Norwalk should
be proud of her Fire Department, for to us
it seems that the organization is now per-
fect. With many thanks we remain ’trul'y

Unless parents know from experience the
value of Tips in protecting their children‘s
shoes from wear at the toe, they will be great-
ly helped in deciding what kinds to purchase
by examining their children's old shoes. They
will find them through at the toe, while the
balance of the shoe may be but little worn.

this, and thus reduces shoe bills more than
