Editorial Letter. WASHINGTON, June 19th, 1880. DEAR Gaznrrsz—The long session of the (great American Congress adjourned at “high noun” on Wednesday, as quietly as‘a coun~ try selnol would take its ahhual recess. The stampede of members wasthe only thing at all exhilerating about the evacuation. The pressure of home interests, re-uomiuations and re elections, ,depopulated the ileum: end with surprising celerity- Many members lel't Friday of last week, more on Tuesday night, and Thursday morning the House P. M. told us there were but thirty-two mem— bers remaining in the city. Never did alot of school-boys seem more delighted at vaca— tion and certainly never were the American people more rejoiced to see the unprofitable and incongruous body called :1 Congress dis- perse. . So far as any legislation affecting the great business interests or prosperity bf the country are concerned, absolutely nothing has been done. That the Republicans were greatly elated at the outcome of the Chicago Con- vention and the Democrats correspondingly depressed, was openly apparent to every one. The attempt to blacken the character of Representative Garfieldnon account of Oaks Ames' secret transfer to him of ten shares of Credit Mobilier stock and his $5,000 retainer for defending DcGolycr, is condemned by all honest and sensible Democrats because they know there was neither dishonesty or official impropriety in Garfield’s action. A commit— tee of Congress composed of three Republi— cans and two Democrats unanimously exon— erated him from all blame. Attorney-Gen. Black, one of the most robust of Bourbons, certifies that of his own knowledge, he knows Garfield to be entirely innocent, and the half-rebel Washington qui'tal gives its party friends notice that they must hunt some other cause of attack if they hope to defeat Garfield. The fact is, our candidate is not only known to be, but is acknowledged by his fellow Democratic. Members to be a great, honest-hearted, generous, and noble- minded christian gentleman. There is no cant, duplicity, or pretense about James A. GARFIELD, but as boyand man, he .was and transparent as the noonday sun.- Large numbers of the Democratic mem- bers of the House takein Cincinnati on their ways homeward. There was the greatest anxiety with the departing Democrats as to who was to be selected there as their candi— date. A majority seemed to feel sure that Tilden would be the man. Speaker’ Randall says he is the strongest possible candidate and is sure to be nominated. More conserv- ative Democrats,said it was sure defeat to re- nominate Tilden, as he could not begin to hold his own party strength. That he was sure to lose New York, New Jersey, Connec- ticut and Indiana and thus make Garfield's election a certainty. _A few hours more will tell who are the better prophets. _ Bepresentative Miles has worked indefati— gably for his district’s share in the appropria- tions. The long-sought for Stamford Har- bor Improvement appropriation passed the House, but in the Senate the sum to place a buoy was stricken out, but the light—house clause remains and that will be built the pres- ent season, and the buoy will undoubtedly be secured next session. _ The appropriation to continue the work of digging out the Norwalk harbor was passed and a clause is inserted requiring the sand— bars between the mouth ofour harbor and the draw-bridge to be cut so as to give “six feet of water over them at low tide. This will b gratifying news to those who travel by séamboat to and from New York. The following is a complete summary statement of the appropriations made by Congress in the thirteen regular annual ap— propriation bills and the various deficiency bills that became laws during the session just ended: I _ '. . . Pension bill, $32,404,000; pension deficien- cy bill, $9,322,999.22; post ofilcc appropria— tion bill, $39,093,420; post—ofiice deficiency, $1,250,000; Military Academy, $316,234 38; fortifications, $550,000; consular and diplo- matic, $1,184,135; navy, $14,405,797.70; army, $26,425,000; Indian, $4,656,314.20; In. dian deficiency, $135,000; legislative. execu— tive. and judicial, $16,274,223 59; sundry civil, $22,523,821.69; river and harbor, $8. - 929,500; District of Columbia, $1,714,498.67; a5ricultural, $253,300; regular deficiency bill, $4,577,002.04; printing deficiency, $350, 000; House and Senate contingent fund de- ficiencies, $39,012; miscellaneous, (estima— ted) $52,400,000; tetoi, $186,805,058 40. Commissidner LeDuc has given to the pub- lic that portionof‘the forthcoming annual re. port of the department of agriculture which refers to the ‘ army worm, the writer being Mr. J. Henry Comstoek, the etomologist of the department. Mr. Comstock says that the parent insect isa night-flying moth, and in this agrees with most other authorities. His plan for destroying the pest is to dig ditches with overhanging sides, having pits or holes a foot or two deep at intervals of twenty or thirty feet, into which the worms, not being able to ascend the sides of the ditch will fall as they crawl about. Once in these traps the nuisances may be killed in any way most convenient. " Gen. Wm. T. Clark is spoken of as a pos— sible successor to Gen. Raum, in event of the removal of the latter for his open violation at Chicago of the President's civil service or- der. . . . Our friend Mr. A. H. Bissell, who Is him- self prostrated from overwork, has been call- ed upon to part with his youngest child. His brother Edward, from Philadelphia, and ' Mrs. E. C. Bissell of Norwalk were present at the funeral’ The remains. of the babe were taken to Norwalk for interment. Gen. Garfield was tendered a banquet and serenade by his old army comrades and per- sonal admirers, at the Rigg's House, Thurs. day evening. Attorney General Devens Gens. Logan, P. H. Sheridan and others addressed the crowd. Mr. Garfield’s remarks were appropriately limited to an expression of his gratitude to his friends, and congrat- ulations upon the auspicious omens of a brighter future for the country. Senators Plait and Eaton and all our Rep- resentatives except Col. Wait, left for home immediately after adjournment. Col. Wait, as is just like him, remained over till Friday to render special service to citizens of Con— necticut. . As ever, - B. M . This dry season makes our people doubly appreciate the luxury of the public water, and more of our citizens ought to avail them- selves of its use.' It is reported that boys are guilty of getting over andundcr the dis- tributing reservoir fence and committmgy nuisances there. If this is true our commis— sioners should set a \watch and have the misn creants caught. ' The water has had an odor of decayed fish for some weeks past, which should cause a thorough inspection of the filters at both the Reservoirs. The purity of the water is a matter of the first importance, as the recent sickness of .3 whole town at North Adams, Muse, from impurities in the public waterclcarly shows. ———_-__——~_ I It is not yet too late to send in corrections to the Census Enumerators.

V The intelligence‘of the sudden death of this estimable christian lady, in New York. on the 15th inst..'brought sadness and sin- cere sorrow to many hearts; not only of her near relatives and large circleof kindred, but also of many to whom she was endeared by virtues and kindnesscs, generous and un- Sfinted. and of a sympathizing community. * We do not propose to attempt at this time, any further obituary thaumay be found in the address of Rev.

JUNE 18th, 1880. ' It is eminently fitting that the body of Elizabeth Lockwood Morgan should be brought from her house, in the city. for funeral rites in the country; first to her paternal home,-——not that, indeed, in which she and her sisters and her brothers were born, and which is still in the family—but that to which her parents transfcri-ed them more .than fifty years ago; from which she was married; in which her father and her mother died ; and which is still the home of her elder. and only surviving sister. It is eminently fitting too, that this body he brought into, and these funeral rites be continued in the hopse of God which was as the gate of heaven to her soul; not, indeed, that venerated old sanctuary in which she may be said to have been born again, in which she, and her elder sister, and more than one hundred others, first publicly assumed the .vows of God, in the memorable ‘year 1831 ;—-but that which her father helped liberally to build, and in which now worship the church and society which her ancestors helped to found, early known as “Ye Prime Ancient Society in yo township of Norwalk"; to which the joint families of Lockwood and St. John have given so many members, and several deacons ;—the church in whose fel- lowship are her brothers, also, and so many of her kindred and friends, in whose fellow— ship ahc has steadfastly and ever adhered and died; and which she so dearly loved, and for whose welfare, and- adornment, and more decorous worship, she has given so many and so rich and substantial tokens of her grow— ‘ ing affection. This beautiful Bible,and thatcostly pulpit service of silver salver and vessels and a rare antique stand, are among these pledges and proofs of that love; and it is believed to have been in her heart,—had her life been spared and her wishes and intentions carried out,— to have done and bestowed much more. For these and other benefactions, public and private, (the latter far more than the for- mer, known many of them, only to God, and to the recipients who rise up and call her blessed), she‘ is entitled to gratitude, Fit— ting it is “that this, that this woman hath done, he told, and spoken of as a memorial even as the alabaster box of very precious ointment to be poured upon the headof the Lord's Anointed, to anoint his sacrificial body for its burial, brought by that other woman who “loved much,”«—or, as that other devout act of the Roman-Centurion, of whom the elders of the Jews testified to Jesus when they besought him urgently that He would heal his daughter, saying, "‘He is worthy for whom thou shouldcst do this'; for 'he loveth our nation and bath built as a synagogue.” ' Would that many more, here and else- where, might be constrained by the love of Christ, as she and others in Norwalk have been, to show that love to Him and to His church by cousccrating liberally of what He hath confided to their stewardship, for the benefit of His poor, and espccxally to the honoring of His house and His worship, and the promotion of His cause at home and also abroad! - It is also eminently fitting that these prec- ious remains be brought to Norwalk for in- terment—here under her natal sky, in her na- tive soil, among these loved'hills and vales, and streams, and so near yonder broad and beautiful sound, on whose isle-girt shore her ancestors settled, with the-first,more than two and a quarter centuries ago; in the midst of these familiar scenes of ‘her lovely childhood and youth, and of these homes of her loved kindred and friends;—scenes and friends to which her heart turned and bound ritself, more and more as years increased, and friends were lessened by death. How she rejoiced in her new and beautiful country home, so near to us all, and in the an- ticipation of returning to spend the peaceful evening of .her happy day where she hailed its bright morning. But, just at the time whenshe was preparing for that removal her .Saviour’s call was heard, “Come up higher 1" and so her redeemed spirit has fled to the whom she loved best of all; and there, we trust, has been unitedto the “sister-spirit" of her younger sister, Mrs. John P. Treadwell, so recently 'called away from New Milford. "Lovely and pleasant in their lives, in their death they were not divided”—but by a lit— tle—“And so shall they ever be with the Lord.’_' And though it was not given her torealize the full’import of the Oriental benediction “May you die among your kindred!” yet,— thanks be to God! and also to her honored and beloved husband, who had prepared a sweet spot for her burial among the classic suburban shades of-Grcenwood—she is to be permitted to sleep in proximity to so much of her kindred's dust, which, from the first, has hallowed our various burying-grounds, and in our Union Cemetery, whose very , name is significant of her cordial oneness with so many of different names and sects; among. whom she shall tranquilly sleep, where the birds sing their matins and vcapers front the arborvitzes, where the 'feet of love shall oft resort, and whence, at last, she shall joyfully arise “to meet the Lord in the air.” Playmate of my childhood, companion of my youth, and friend of all of my years, Adieu ! Another Old Citizen Deceased. Your last week’s announcement of the death of our fellow-tawnsman, Henry Betts, will recall only kind and respectful memories of him by those who knew him longest and best. He was an honest and true man, a de— vout and humble Christian ; and this is much to say of any. lIe was received into the 1st Congregational Church in February, 1817, and was ever, when here, one of its meshes-Inset, faithful, and useful members. 1. 2' ' tional church, where a congregation was. was effectively rendered by the Rev. C. M._ of her,” specially to be remembered here;- better “mansion" prepared by her Lord .. “.- As a man he was especially noted for his inventive mechanical genius, too active, too "he had been more patient and persevering perfecting the inventions of his fertile mind. Our esteemed fellow.citizen, C. 1‘. Ray; mond, Esq,, furnishes some facts respecting those productions or suggestions of his per- petual scheming. The first of these knofvn to him was his lathe for irregular turning, dc- vised and applied in his work as a shoemaker for-the manufacture of lasts. In making his machine he personally did most of the work in wood and metal, but unfortunately, he did not “stick to his last;” and a party at the East got hold of the principle and built machines for the turning of gun stocks for the U. S. Government. Mr. Belts brought suit against the company at Springfield, Mass.,whlch was decided in his favor in the lower courts; but when the case was appealed to the Supreme Court it went by default for lack of means on his part to bear the expense of prosecuting it. Hemext invented the “Portable Forge" fOr which he received nothing, though it is said to have been worth millions to the Govern— ment _ during the late war. Another of his inventions was the “ Lightning Printing Press.” When he was; ready for the exhibi— tion of it, and invitation were issued, a fire destroyed his preparations and devoured his means, and the Messrs. Hoe, who had built it and held the patterns, and to‘whom Mr. Betts was indebted, went on and made improve- ments and became the patcntecs of that world renowned press. His grand ambition for it was not personal aggrandizement, but. the giving the Word of God to the hundreds of millions in China. Another of his inventions was for the conVersion of'~ the sedges and paper for the feeding of omnivorous presses. It is said that this patent-right is held by one ’of'our citizens. ‘ But the active brain and fervent heart of the octogenarian have ceased to beat and burn, and his redeemed and renewed spirit, we doubt not, is soaring on untiring wing, into heights of discovery and satisfaction never reached by any on earth. Grass Snxnonu died very suddenly of congestive chill at his residence on ' West Avenue, on Saturday morning last. Fora short time prior to his death he had been troubled with malarial infection,but he went out to his work as usual after breakfast, Saturday morning, and his son going on the Odd Fellows excursion, both without a thought of serious indisposition. After a short time Mr. S. returned to the > house complaining of a severe pain in his side, then a congestive chill seized him and he soon after expired. He was the oldest practical builder probably in the country, if not in the State, and continued his life-long habits of daily labor up to the morning of his decease. In the Gamma of_July 30, 1878, we gave the following notice of this upright and most remarkable man: . _ A Rarely Useful Life. Mr. Giles Seymour, one of our beatand best-known Carpenters and Builders, who was born in the opening year of the present century, has already built two houses this season, and is now, at the age of seventy— eight, busily engaged completing his third one, and on all three of which he has done a large amount of the mechanical work. Mr. Seymour has probably personally planned and wrought, in the erection of more first— class buildings during his long life, as an op- erating mechanic. than any other man now living in our State. Besides being a master of his trade, he has been a man of first-class taste and thorough, practical judgment, and the architecture of our town has for three- quarters of a century borne convincing and most gratifying evidence of his superior skill as a Builder. He was the builder of Lock- wood’s Hall, of the Norwalk Lock Factory, the GAZETTE BUILDING, and many other of our most noted public edifices and beautiful private residences. It is indeed a rare and beautiful sight to see this venerable and yet robust and active artisan still diligently ply.- ing the trade he learned sixty years ago 'and‘ still enjoying, as he has always done, the highest esteem and confidence of his fellow citizens. Mr. Seymour-'8 robust constitution and uniformly good health prove the “divin- ity of labor” in the manner his “good diges- tion waits on appetite. " This aged hero worker is a picture of a grand and noble manhood, and pity ’tis that more of mankind have not his courage to toil in the world's great vine— yard, and to do with their might what the hands find to do. In physical more than mental labor, is health of body and peace of mind secured. Re-Unlon of the Misses Brock- way’s School. This very pleasing and recherche afiair at the Athenaeum'on the eveningof Friday, the lSth, inst., attracted a choice, but large company of the friends of the school. .It comprised. Isl—A Reception, 2d—A‘ Literary nnd Musical Entertainment; 3d—A Promenade Concert. Two gentlemen discoursed sweet music fro the piano and the violin during the R on, and in the for the closing exercises “on the light fantas~ tic toe." 0f the various essays, readings, recitations and musical performances of the pupils, we need only sun—without particularizing in- vidiously where all acquitted themselves so creditably—thot they well sustained the character of the Misses Brockway’s school. They were of a high order, intellectually and artistically, refined and elegant; and were ac- cordingly relished and applauded by an ap- preciative audience. We may be permitted to say, in a word, that the reading of the scholars pleased us as very natural and dis- tinct; and that their musical deliverances were most delicately and accurately render- ed in time and touch. Italian intellect as revealed in Science, Lit- erature and Art, was the presiding genius of the evening gracefully pervading every part, to which a beautiful tribute was rendered in the closing address by Rev. J. M. Taylor, conceived in so elevated a spirit and express- ed in so fitting and forcible a delivery that it deserved to be styled an oration. ' We did not foot up the final turns and returns, and therefore cannot give the proper credit to the saltatory performances, but doubt not they were properly enjoyed. The Democratic Convention. The greatest contest in the Republican Convention at Chicago 'was over the "unit rule”, which was killed, and district repre- sentation prevailed, giving every man a chance to speak and vote as he pleased—the very essence of democracy. In the conven— .the so called democratic party, the mana- gers'will not tolerate this idea for a moment, and the vote will be by the States. Thus by gaining a majority of votes of any state they carry the entire vote of that State. There are said to be only two contesting delegations —Massachusetts and New‘ Y,—-so that the committee on credentials need not occupy much time. An interesting feature of the Convention will be the probable enforcement of the rule requiring candipates. to secure a two-thirds vote instead of a majority, as in the Republican convention. If Tildeu suc- ceeds in screwing his courage to the stick— ing point and venture a contest with Gar- field and the Republican party, he will be nomination—for he is easily the Great Democratic Dictator.

All things considered, the excursion'givén by the Odd Fellow-Twas; on Saturday last. was the gfludeit'ifialr'of'the'kind ever attempted in Norwalk. The splendid steam. or Columbia came up the Sound on Friday afternoon, passed by the islands, rounded Goose Island and came through the . Eastern passage in fine style, reaching her wharf and winding around without trouble. relieving all doubts as to her ibility to get in and out of our harbo . Saturday morning was rather smoky, but little fear was entertained of a stormy day. On the wharf ropes were stretched to keep the crowds of, spectators at a suitable distance, both for convenience and safety. Pauengerslarrived early from the Danbury Road,—an extra train being run, making three in all,——and from Norwalk and ' the adjacent towns, and at eight o’clock there were about fourteen hundred men, we— men and children on board. Soon after the ponderous wheels moved, find the mammoth steamer started slowly down the harbor. The propeller City Of Norwalk was at hand ready to assist in case of emergency, but. there was no need of her services, the Colum- bia getting out .of’ the harbor without the slightest difficulty. The manner in which the boat was handled was a matter of general remark. Ccpt. F; Perkins honored the occa- sion with his presence, showingtbc interest the owners of the line had taken in the suc- ‘ cess of the excursion. He was ever ready to do anything in his power to render the ex- cursion pleasant and successful. Capt. Hol- ton was in command of the vessel, and was as courteous, obliging and approachable as when captain of the Adelphi. The sail down the sound was very pleasant. Near Fort Schuyler the Grand Republic, with Mr. Beecher’s' church and Sunday—school, was met going up the Sound, and soon after sev- eral excursion barges and steamers. The East river and New York bay was alive with vessels, and from the upper deck of the Co- lumbia manyhad better views of New York, Brooklyn, &c., than they had ever obtained before. The vessel passed in full view of the Iron Pier and the great hotels at Coney Island, and soon encountered a slight swell which occasioned some few cases of sea-sick- ness, but in a few minutes the boat was the wharf at Rockawny at one o’clock. Two hours were allowed on shore. and the time passed quickly. The new mammoth hotel was found to be unfinished. Hundreds of men were rushing work as fast as possible, and it is the intention of Mr. Rice to open on the 28th last, when he expects to have enough of the immense structure finished to accommodate four thousand guests. It is somewhat doubtful if he succeeds. Captain Perkins informs us that the Hotel, although .now the largest in the world, is really not so large as the Mount Vernon Hotel at Cape May destroyed by fire in 1856, and of which Mr. Rice was the Room Clerk. That was 750 feet square, with five towers on each front five stories high, with verandahs on all sides, the main building being four stor- ries high. The new Iron Pier jut- ting out into the sea for a long distance, was also fond to be unfinished. The passen- gers made the most of the short time allow- ed them to remain ashore. At 3 o’clock most of them had returned to the vessel, remem- bering the admonition that the boat would leave al: that hour sharp. ' At five minutes after three the Columbia swung out into the stream, and just then the stragglers began to appear. Just how many were left is not known, but the number was quite respecta— ble. They had no difiiculty in reaching home, however, by the cars. The return home was without special incident. The Grand Republic with her merry load of pas— sengers, chime of bells, music, &c.,,was again passed near Fort Schuyler.The speed of the Columbia,and herjeasy running qualities, were generablly commented upon,and all the arrangements of the boat for the convenience and comfort of passengers were found en- tirely satisfactory. The boat entered the Eastern passage again, and made her way up tho harbor without difilc‘ulty, reaching the wharf at 7:45, and discharging a well satis- fied-party of excursionists. Pecuniarily it is understood that the excursion just about paid expenses, the receipts being, It is believed, in the neighborhood of $1,000. This result is gratifying to the managers. The next time the 0dd,Fellows go 6n:an ex- curgion, however, they may reasonably ex- pec to:do much better. ~ On Monday morning the Columbia again appeared in our harbor, in order to take out the South Norwalk Reform Club excursion— ists. In turning around at the wharf her bosz touched the mud on the east side, and althiough the Adelphi and City of Norwalk both assisted, it was found impossible to get her around until the tide was considerable higher. The Adelphi was thus unable to get out with her largo load of passengers until 8.45. The Columbia got away at 9 o’clock, audit is estimated carried about as many passengers, all told, as on Saturday. They found plenty of room to spread out on her three decks,and no lack of seats, for the ves- sel is licensed to- carry 4,000, and probably. often carries more than that number. The day has been pleasant, and about the time \' that we. go to press we‘ presume the vessel will be steaming up the harbor.. School Meetings. The annual meeting of the Over River School District was held last Friday evening. and was quite well attended. After the reading of the reports-officers were chosen as 'follows:—0mnntittee, LeGraad Jackson, E. 0. Keeler, C. H. Wheeler; Clerk, D. W. Fitch}; Treasurer, Ira Cole ; Collector, A. E. J ohnaon. It . was voted to hold a special meeting of the voters of the District on Fri- day eyening, July 20, to consider the matter of laying a tax to pay a part of the indebted- ness, to fix the compeniation of collector and to authorize the borrowing of money for cur- rent expenses, &c. _ _ In the Centre District, in compliance with a petition, the commitme print a call in this issue of the Gaznrrn for a special meeting, to be held“ on Wednesday evening of next week.:’ The principal object is, to say the least. a strange oue,—siniply to instruct the committee as to whom they shall employ as principal. .This action will undoubtedly re- sult in a request to the'Registrars to prepare a list 6: legal voters of the district, in order that the vote Inay be taken by check-list as provided by law.
