CITY WEST NORWALK.
Thaddeus Johnson, Esq, has removed his
family into his new cottage on Main street,
and appears to be very pleasantly situated.
The frame for the house of Mr. Green
has been raised, and is nearly sheathed.
ready for the outside covering. When lin-
ished, 'it will be the most spacious mansion
in the city and is to be finished under the
immediate inspection of the owner, with boss
carpenter W. F. Mattber, as superintendent.
Mr. Ferry and his bride from Bethel,
spent a part of the lioncymoon,- here as
guests of Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Smith.
Mrs. Richard Kciling and daughter, of
Brooklyn, were visiting at Mr. W. H. Dug.
drilc‘s during the past week.
Information-was received last week of the
d.-ath of the wife of C. G. Selleck, which oc
curred at her home in Smyrna, Florida.
Rev. Mr. Alvord presented a very forcible
and plain sermon, on Sunday p. m., in the
pulpit of Union Chapel, from the words
“Let your light so shine.” It is expected
t‘tat Rev. C. M. Selleck will hold a service
in the chapel one evening this week.
Il‘here , was no school on Monday last,
owmg to the absence of Mr. Waterbury
at the funeral of the late Mr. Wm. Bates.
Mr. A. Johnson was home on a visit on
Monday last.
Thieves entered the cellar of Mr. W. H.
Dugdale, on Monday night last and stole a
sufficient quantity of potatoes and onions
to last them the week out when
they get out of those usefnll articles
articles again, we cheerfully invite them
to help themselves and perhaps we would
find those pantaloons that were taken off
a line in this neighborhood a few evenings
before.
On Tuesday last, while Mrs. M. Newboner
o‘N. Y., was visiting at her mother Mrs.
D. B. Mather her infant daugther was sud
denly taken sick and after a brief illness
died. Mr. Newboner was telegraphed for
and preparations for interment took place on
Thursday, in the Mather plot in the cemetery
on the hill.
DARIEN.
Col. Vincent Colyer has been nominated as
Representative for Daricn. He has had
large experience in public affairs. Was the
warm personal friend of President Lincoln
and of Mr. Greeley. He represented Darien
two years ago, and will confer more honor
upon his town in the legislature, than Darien
can possibly bestow upon him.
RIIFRFIELD.
Pleasant days, though cool.
Th‘re were a Greenback meeting at the
Town House, Saturday afternoon. Two
speakers addressed an audience of about
seventy-five persons. A club was formed
of about twenty-five persons. .
C. B. Northrop and B. K. Northrop are
the Republican nominees for representa-
tives. The Democrats have nominated S.
J. Barton and B. Bradley.
Jason Whitlock buried his daughter
Saturday. She died of consumption.
Mrs. Smith Burt met with a curious ac-
cident, week before last, and the strangest
part of it is that she escaped with her life.
She fell through an‘ open trap door intoa
cistern containing seven feet of water. She
sank to the bottom, and by a spring came
to the surface, long enough to get breath.
This she did repeatedly. She retained
presence of mind enough as she went under
to put her hand over} her mouth, to prevent
water entering. Three or four men present
did not think fast enough to pass her a
rope, but tried to grasp her hand in the
dark. They finally caught her just asshe
felt that she had not strength to come up
again, and must give up. A serious cold was
the worst result. .
Dead Shot will be repeated at Ridgeficld
Hall, next Monday night. The leading
parts in this play were capitally well taken:
when given before and ought to draw a crowd-
ed house, at the next representation. “My
Uncle’s Will,” a pretty comedy, will be
rendered, ths same evening. Proceeds for
local improvement.
J. Howard King's family havcleft and
returned to Albany.
W. O. Seymour’s family will take up
their residence at South Norwalk this week.
Mr. Solomon Keeler has been quite sick.
There is to be a social hop at the Hall to-
morrow evening.
Mr and Mrs. Banks, of Newburgh, are
visiting at L. H. Bailey's.
Thrashed oats were stolen from Wm.
Benedict’s barn, last week and corn from
Hiram Seymour's field.
Letters to the People.
Emrons or GAZETTE: _
Having resided some years in Norwalk the
GAZETTE has always been at hand for domes-
tic news. Accidentally my attention was
called to a question headed “Republicans of
Westport, have you so few men in your
rank: that you must choose for a member of
your Town Committee, a man who is doing
all that he can to defeat Republicans and
elect Democrats ?” This Committee man is
well known throughout the County, and in
an adjoining state where he served as a
teacher for many years until it was discover-
ed that it was only through .impudencethat he
ever obtained ’a place of trust. On his being
pronounced disqualifiedjto teach, by his own
admission that his mind was not properly
balanced—he certainly is more to be pitied
than censured-your correspondent “a party
man” we have a very high respect for, but
think he should take an entirely difiercnt view
of the matter. As we understand the mat-
ter in every instance when he, the Committee
man has attempted to injure a party or any
institution, it has always proved the reverse.
Look at his tirade against the Railroads, in
every case he has made himself one of the
most despiéed men in this communityT—just
so in politics—we have great hopes of the
course he has taken proving very advanta-
geous to the Republican party and would
sooner have him operate in the way he has,
than'otherwise. There must until the millen-
nium be tares and thistlcs among the wheat
and it is not our business to know why—it is
enough for us to know that it is the sacred
duty of every honest man towork hard for
honest money, for the paying of our honest
debts and for the establishing and sustaining
an honest government. When I resided in
Norwalk t ere were nothing like the foul
seed then that has been grdwing since the
days of Twecd’s prosperity, but we hope‘
there may be less in other places, at any rate
so long as we don’t become like Sodom, we.
have strong faith that honesty will prevail
and that we shall have honest government—
and it will be sustained if we only obey the
Divine Command “In the sweat of thy face
shalt thou cat thy bread." Wesrron'r.

The statement made by the Farmer that
the Democrat was printed at the Gazarrn
office is entire] ' erroneous. The Democrat
was printed in ew York and the Republi-
cans of Norwalk had nothing whatever‘ to do
with the fight. It is a Democratic “shindy”
from first to last,——cven having gone over
“horse foot and artillery" and become one of
the “life-long Democrats" who banker after
the success of that party and what it brings.
We can not too fervently congratulate the Re-
publicans of this District on the chan c of
heart which—has experienced, nor the em.
ocrats on their acquisition and the peace and
harmony which it has brought them, and
which are now being $3 brilliantly illustrated.

building is going on somewhere. We don’t
know why, but feel safe in saying we never
saw a larger stock of lumber or of better
quality in the state than that now 'offered
by Mr. Staples. Whether the proprietor
anticipates a rise in the price of - lumber,
or expects to supply all creation, does, no
appear, but this much ' manifest that, the
putting in of a vast stoc at this time must
be suggested by the experience of much
over fifty years which teaches that, after

To E. Plait Strattou, Esq, Supervising in-

We have the honor to report the result of
an inquiry held by this board into the cause
not the explosion of the boiler of the steamer
Adelphi, which occurred on the morning of
September 28, 1878, 011‘ South Norwalk.
Conn., while on her voyage to New York
This investigation was commenced on the
14th of October, and continued on the 16th,
18m and 22d, when, having exhausted all
available testimony, the case was closed,
thirteen witnesses having been examined. The
steamer Adclptli is one of the many side
wheel steamers of her class plying in the vi-
cinity of New York She was built at Allia-
uy in 1865, and is of 642 77—100 tons burden.
'l‘hc boiler was built by Thomas McGee, of
It is twenty-nine feet long
nine one half feet in diameter, and of the
drop flue type of boiler. 1tis built of iron
stamped 50,000 pounds ten sile strength, and
of 5-16 of an inch in thickness... There are
ten fines of nineteen, twelve and ten inches
in diameter. This boiler was last inspected
at Norwalk, Conn., by J. W. Blake, late
assistant inspector of boilers at this port, on
the 25th of J unc last.
wnar run Examxurox has mscmsao.
It appears in evidence that the steamer was
purchased by. Mr. R. Cornell White,from the
receiver o'fthc North River Steamboat Com.
pany on the 6th of May, 1873. At or about
the time an examination of her boiler was
made by John A. Peasc, the supeflntcndent
engineer for Mr. White. He states in his
testimony that he found the braces and seek:
et bolts and some of the crowfeet in the
chimney in bad condition, everything else
about the boiler being good. All that was
found defective was put in good condition.
He testified that he examined the boiler in-
ternally and externally, in all parts that
could be reached, and examined that part of
the boiler. on the inside, at which the rup-
ture took place, and 'did not discover any-
thing wrong at that time; the small patches
at the line of rupture had been put on prior
to this examination and before the purchase
of the vessel by Mr. White. The witness
did not think that these patches indicated any
weakness, it being the usual way of treating
leaky socket bolts.
This witness did not, at the time of his
examina;ion of the boiler. know how the
boiler was braced, and declares that had be
known at that time what he now knows
about the bracing he would not have allowed
the boat to run. ‘
James A. Howland the engineer of the
steamer, testifies that he and a boiler maker
who made the repairs made an examination
of the boiler in May last; that all defects
were. remedied and the boiler put in good
condition.
On an examination of the boiler since the
explbsion we find that a rupture took place
‘ Fclose toa scam immediately above the top
row of socket bolts on the port side of the
fire box, extending its entire length (eight
feet nine inches), making an opening in the
boiler of this length and thirty inches in
wi th. '
ONE THIRTI’ SECONDTII OF AN IRON BOILERS.
At the poiht of the rupture we find the
iron wasted awayto about one thirty secondth
qfan inch in thickness and that the portion
of plate blown out (8. 9x30) was without brac-
ing of any‘kind. We are of the opinion that
this deterioration resulted from the following
action :—'l‘he steam generated on the side of
the furnace ascending and striking against the
outer shell, which curves over it at this point
had worn away the sheet at the point of
fracture; and this result was undoubtedly
accelerated by the obstruction offered by an
inside lap at this point immediately above the
line of rupture, which had interrupted in
some degree the free ascent of the steam cur-
rént.
This action reduced the thickness and
strength of the plate at this point until it was
unable to with-hold the pressure of steam em-
ployed, which we are satisfied,diil not exceed
the pressure allowed by the certificate. If
the portion of plate blown out had been prop-
erly braced to the furnace we do not believe
the explosion would have occurred. This
defect should havrbccumdlscovel'ur ny—mc‘
Superintendent Engineer in his examination
of the boiler at the time of the vessel’s pur.
chase.
James A. Howland, the chief engineer of
the steamer, we find guilty of inattention and
negligence to duty in not personally hav-
ing made an examination of that portion of
the boiler where the small patches were situ
ated when they began to leak and it was
found necessary to rc-place them by a larger
one, so as to ascertain the real condition .of
that portion of the boilers. We also find him
guilty of inatteniion to duty in intrusting the
making of said repairs to a boiler maker with-
out his supervision. For such negligence and
inattention we find it to be our duty to re-
voke his license and the same is hereby re-
voked from this date.
ixsracron BLAKE.
John W. Blake, late assistant boiler inspec.
tor, who made the last inspection
of this boiler, we find performed that
duty in a very negligent and imperfect manner.
His inspection was made with fires in the
furnaces. in violation of instructions from
this Board, issued under date of February 11,
1878, which precluded the possibility of
making a minute and careful examination,
even in those parts of the boiler which were
of easy access depending on the statements
of the engineers and the age of the boiler for
its condition. It appears from his testimony
that he knew nothing of the character or con-
dition of the bracing within the boiler; did
not know whether there was more than one
safety valve attadied to the name; did not
know whether he set the safety valve to blow
at the pressure allowed, nor at what pres-
sure it would blow.
The.conduct of Mr. Blake in this case is
without excuse. Three steamboat boilers in-
spected by him this season had previously
exploded with the loss of many lives, which
should have been a warning to him to be
more particular and thorough in his examin-
ation. Brit it appears these fearful occurren-
ces had no effect in stimulating him to great-
er care and diligence. -
After a careful review of the testimony in
this case we are of the opinion that Mr. R.C.
Cornell White, the owner of the steamer, was
actuated by a desire to comply in all respects
with the requirements of the law, and to
have all necessary repairs made with prompti-
lude in the best manner, in which he was
guided by the professional advice of officers
who had been in his employ for more than
thirty years.
By this accident fifteen persons lost their
lives and about the same number were in—
jured.
Two of the killed were employes of the
steamer. 1
_The damage to the vessel is about $2,000 ;
to the boiler, unknown. Respectfully sub-
mitted,

Two poor fellows were hanged for inur.
dcr last Friday in Chicago, and justly ; but
the men who sold 'them the maddening
liquors which crazed their brain and let
loose within them the fierce demons of bru-
tality, where are they? The answer is,
they are going right on doing the same thing,
over and over again, in unuttcrably crim-
inal repetition, dailyv participants in every
sort and grade of criminality known to the
calenders of crime—and all under the for-
mal protection of that civil authority which
one day sells them the “licenses” to do
these things and the next day hang the men
who never would have committed murder
but for these “licensed” schools of vice and
crime! The criminal courts of this and
other cities aré‘ constantly over-crowded
with cases, nine-lentils of which are directly
traceable to the temptations and opportu-
nities of the liquor traffic. Then, again,
neither of these boys knew how to read or
write. Sure] y, it would not be Very difficult
to frame a just indictment on their behalf
against “society" almost as serious in its
charges as the writ with its fatal conse-
quences just new served upon them. What
master in the solemn art and olilce of re-
forming criminals-will next, take society in
hand f—Ewclicnge.
