Democratic Civil Service.
The colicky spasms the democracy are just
now undergoing over civil service reform,
have a more practical purpose than diverting
the public mind from the digraceful Chinese
letter forgery. It is well known at Wash—
ington that President Hayes and most of his
cabinet ministers, have turned a very soft
and tender ear to tbe' syrcn importunities
of democratic members of Congress for
places for their friends. No Republican
Administration has even appointed so many
democrats to ofiice, and the fear is that Gen.
Garfield may be tempted to turn out the
more incorrigbile of these and put republi-
cans in their places, hence the democratic
anxiety to get a bill passed this winter pro—
viding that no officer shall be removed except
for positive direlictiotf of duty. If such an
enactment can be forced through this wmtcr
before the Democratic Congress expires, to
meet not again forever, a little will be saved
to their hopes for ofiice holding. Had Gen.
Hancock been elected no such enactment
would have been permitted. The whole se-
cret of their sudden Civil Service wrenchings
is simply to force the incoming administra-
tion to retain in office at Washington, and all
over the South, the hundreds and thousandt-
of unrepentant rebels and democrats that
have sneaked into office through President
Hayes’s generous magnanimity to our oppon
cuts. This African in the fence is altogether
too large to be concealed,

Congress.
The last session of our unique Democratic
Congress met at 12 yesterday. It will expire
to the great relief of about everybody, March
4th at 12 m , and so mote it be.
The President’s Message which is reported
unusually long, will be in Tuesdays papers.

Public Scales.
A subscriber wants us to again press the
subject of the erection of public scales for
our town. In Danbury, the Town scales
have proved a source of considerable revenue
to the public treasury, as is the case in many
other places. The principal advantage how-
ever, is the certainty every one purchasing
coal, hay, 8.10., feels of always receiving uni-
form and correct weight. We understand our
coal merchants are heartily in favor of the
project themselves. Who will move in the
matter ?

Gazette Almanac for 1880.
We propose presenting our subscribers
with an elegantly illustrated Almanac for
the year 1881, similar in general character
and excellence to the one issued for 1880.
We intend to have it ready for distribution
before the Holidays, if possible. Among the
fine pictures will be designs by such artists
as John S. Davis, Thomas Moran, J. D.
Woodward, C. J. Whitney, J. D. Simillie,
J. S. Brown, Harry Fenn, and others. A
few advertisement pages only will be insert-
ed and advertisers desiring to secure space
should apply at once.

More Good Luck.
We last week noticed the very rare good
fortune of Prof. Johnston, who at a book
sale in New York, got a full set of the Tri-
bune Almanac, with the single exception of
1878. The earlier numbers of this rare and
now invaluable set, have long been out of
print and the few owning perfect sets value
them so highly that none but public libraries
can afford to purchase. Accidentally last
week, Macy Carter came across the missing
number required to make the Professor’s set
complete, in overhauling some rubbish at
Stanley‘s The Professor is not only to be
congrutttlurw‘, but our town as .well, as we
doubt if an; mi... r place in CUIEUtCilCllL can

will be the recipient of the sincere sympathy

Borough Election.
Bank Commissioner Hyatt, is re-elected
Warden by a vote of 389 to 300 for Wm.
H. Smith. Mr. Smith was induced to allow
his name to be used, after Dr. Gregory had
peremptorily declined to accept the nomina-

effort, and our opponents worked hard to
retain this little crumb of Borough ascend»
ancy after having been so terribly whipped

The Speakership.
We find the following in the Norwich Bul
[elm :—
MR. rsan or FAIRFIELD.
1lln.En1ron: Inotice among the candi—
dates for speaker of the next house of rcp—
resentatives the name of John H. Perry of
Fairfield. I was a member of the house
with him in 1878, during which session he
was frequently called to the chair, in fact,
nearly if not quite as often as all the other
members. As a presiding officer he was
legal tender at all times, so promptly. intel-
ligently and courteously did he dispatch
business. I take pleasure in bearing witness
to his eminent fitness for the position and
think that I echo the sentiment "of all his old
fellow members when I say that the coming
house cannot do better than to elect him
speaker. B.
A Hartford Correspondent of the Spring-
field Republican says :—
Thc newspaper contest for the speakership
of our next house waxes warm, with the odds
in favor of Mr. Perry of Fatrfield, unless he
is killed off by the numerous candidates for
assistant 0 erks from that section. Whoever
elected, it is to be hoped that it will not be
Mr Case of Simsbury, who is a politician
clear through, and something besides a
shrewd wire-puller is called for in the speak-
GI‘S chair.

The Sentinel.
Sundry South Norwalk friends have been
to the pains of inquiring why we omitted
miles of the week before lasts Sentinels
diatribe. It is simply that the point we
essayed to make was, that the Sentinel had
been engaged on the Sabbath prior to election
in printing for the Democratic party. The
Sentinel in its article referred to, not only
admits its ofiice was open on that Sunday for
secular business, but “gave away" its patron
Gen.Taylor, as the Democrat associated with
rt in the Sunday transaction. Thus admit-
ting all that wc had charged, we had no
desire to extend a controversy which our
neighbor seemed determined to carry on in
an'augry and, to say the least, very ungen-
tlemanly manner, and so we dropped the
subject. The current rumor given us by
several of the leading citizens of South
Nlrwalk was to the effect that it was the
forged Chinese letter the Sentinel was print
i up; that Sunday. This we deemed improb-
able at the time, but we stated the rumor as
it was in circulation. What we then and
now more than ever, believe the Sentinel did
print that Sunday for Gen- Taylor, was the
San Francisco circular to laboring men,a
document equally villainous with the Chinese
letter and circulated about South Norwalk
with it. 'As a matter of fact, the fac simile
plates of the forged Garfield letter were sent
out by the Democratic National Committee
to be printed in and to appear in, the regular
editions of newspapers, while those put out
in the circular form, were printed by the
hundred thousands in New York, and were
sent all over the country for distribution.
Three thousand of such were sent to the
Democrat here with orders to circulate and
return bill for the cost of their circulation.
The whole thing was a piece of very dirty
business for any man to be engaged in on any
day in the week, and it. is not perhaps to be
wondered at that Mr. Golden is so tery mad
over the exposure.

Sad Death.‘
The tragic death of Lieut Gov. G. B.
Robinson, in Colorado, has caused a wide
feeling of painful regret and sympathy in this
vicinity. Just prior to the Presidential
election, at which time be was triumphantly
elected Lieut.-Gov. of Colorado, Mr. R. was
a guest of Chas. T. Leonard, Esq., thus
becoming personally known to many N orwalk
people. The day of his departure for Lead-
villc, he called at our office, full of life and
buoyant spirit, and perfectly assured of the
grand Republican triumph that ' awaited his
party and himself personally. He was a
gentleman of fine presence, large hearted
and generous, pad won the kindly regard of
all be met, and no where will his accidental
death he more sincerely and universally
mourned than in the young state of his
adoption.
The New York Tribune in its notice of his
untimely death makes the following mention
of him:—
It was stated of Mr. Robinson yesterday
that last week no man in Colorado Was more
envied than be. In the full vigor of his early
manhood, with a reputation of honesty and
fair dealing of which any man might be
proud, and rich beyond all possible chances
of want, his case was but urmhcr instance of
the perils of mining in Colorado. He was
very successful as rt miner, and the principal
owner of one of the most valuable properties
in Colorado. He was popular among all
classes on account of his genuine worth and
general kindness of heart. and was heartily
supported at the last election when he was
chosen Lieutenant-Governor of his adopted
State.
Mr. Robinson was born near Kalamazoo,
Mich., and leaves near the home of his
boyhood a widowed mother and only sister.
He was about. thirty-three years of age, and
expected, after the adjournment of the
Colorado Legislature in March, 1881 to
return to the. East and, after marrying a
Connecticut lady to take up his residences
permanently in this city. In early life he
was engaged in banking at Kalamazoo until
1878, When he went to Leadville, Col ,
where he engaged in merchantile business.
Subsequently he became interested in the
Leadvrlle mines, and at the time of his death
he was vice president of the Robinson Con—
solidated Company. The value of his property
is estimated at $2,000,000.
The lady referred to above as his af-
fianced, is well-known to be Miss Norman
of Bridgeport, but who has passed the sum-
mer here as the guest of Mrs. Chas. H.
Street. Mr. Robinson’s last visit to Main-
tended bride, was here, as narrated above,
and their marriage is understood to have been
arranged to be consummated immediately
upon his inauguration, this winter. In all
respects, it is a most touching, sad and pain—
ful bereavement
Miss Norman left Nor-walk immediately
after the accident upon a telegraphic sum-
mons and will be present at his funeral which
takes place today, at Kalamazoo,Mich,wherc
his remains‘ arrived yesterday.

Milk Served in Glass Jars.
The novelty of serving families with milk
in clean and neat white glass jars, which the
proprietor of Ledgewood Farm has just
inaugurated here, is, we are glad to note,
proving a pecuniary as well as cleanly and
healthful success. Whenever one of these
pure white jars of milk, with its natty label
giving date and time of leaving the dairy is
seen, it at once captivates the eye and estab—
lishes confidence in the cleanliness of one's
charges are always more.
morning coffee. In lieu of the imagination
being filled with the horrible possibilities
attending the traditional dispenser of the
breakfast milk, whose frowsy hair and be-
numbed and blackened hand plunges the long \
handled dipper in the open canned reservoir
while eyes and u———— chin are dripping with
the liquidations of n cold winter morning‘s
wind, we have here purity personified, and
only the dainty fingers of some painstaking
woman revealed. 'But in its freedom from
the possibility of being riddled or churned
while being carried about, is perhaps its
greatest value, especially where the milk is
used as food for children. By the air tight
corking of the jars all oscillation is prevented
and the curdling of the milk, which is so
injurious toyoung children, is prevented.
By the new device, neither dust, or the
family house dog or cat, can tamper with the
lacteal fiuid, while waiting on the stoop to
be taken into the house. The novelty, we
are glad to repeat, seems to win the instant
approval of all who see it. It was proposed
about a year ago by the enterprising proprie-
tor of Ledgewood, contingent upon receiving
a sufficient number of orders to warrant the
large outlay necessary for its successful
introduction. This encouragement not hav—
ing been at that time accorded,- the project
was deferred to this fall, when the plan was
unconditionally entered upon, and we are
glad to learn has already become reasonably,
successful. Perhaps the very best compli—
ment that could possibly be conferredupon
the woman’s wit that devised. the, scheme, rs
the fact that other dealers now announce
their intention to follow, (as has always been
the way since Adam's fall), where a lady
leads the way. This milk is also left on sale
at Starr Brothers. ‘ .
New Route to Washington and
the West.
The ill-tempered rivalry which has so long
been waged between the Baltimore and Ohio
and Pennsylvania Railroads, has resulted in
opening a new route to Ba‘timore, Washing-
ton and the West, via the Bound Brook road
out of Jersey City. This is by all odds the
quickest and best route to Philadelphia, and.-
now that it has extended its connections to
the immense main and lateral lines of the Balti
more and Ohio, it must become one of the
most popular through lines in the country.
It is a matter for public- rejoicing that the
Penn. R. R. has thus fairly euchred itself in
its efforts to maintain its odious monopoly.

The year 1881 is very promising to astron-
omers. There will be two eclipses of the sun
and two of the moon during the year, and on
November 6 there will be a transit of Mercu-
ry. The planet Saturn will also be so im-
proved in position that a fair study of the
rings can be made. At the present time the
planet presentsa magnificent spectacle. The
space between the rings is faintly visible with
a power of 250 diameters . There will be
comets enough to keep the astronomers busy.
F0 e's comet willbe in perihelion on the 22d
of anuary, and in November Enckels will
pass its perhe'lion. .

The New York and New England railway
trains 'will be running from Danbury to
Brewsters on or befOre January 1, 1881, at
least so an ofllcer of the road says, but there
is much work to be done in the meantime.

New Publications.
. “The Open Fire Place in- all Ages,” by J.
Putnam, James R. Osgood ' &. 00., Boston.
“Man was created originally upright” and
with a largely social.naturc,.£_he biting satire
of substituting, (as is mostly-dune in our best
modern houses), the old—time, open, glowing
fire place. around whichwas so much social
cheer in past ages. and gathering friends and
neighbors of a winters’s evening about a hole
in the floor, to inspire warmth and spice the
conversational enthusiasm of our friends, is
too apparent and too ridiculous for contem-
plat.on. The author, a noted architect, has
done a public servrce and the ‘publishers
added another to the many claims they
already have upon the popular gratiude.
Not only because of the intelligent and
sensible suggestions made for artistic re-in-
troductions of the old-time fire place into
our better class houses, and thus helping to
restore one of the too generally _abandoued
“home institutions" of our grandparents,
but the additional health and vigor it is sure
to give both mind and body, in the increase
of fresh air and better ventilation, should
give the book a very wide and careful
reading. A. Selleck. Norwalk.
“BEN Hun, A Tale of the Christ,” by Lew
Wallace, Harper &. Brothers.
Those who knew Gen. Wallace, as did
many of our Connecticut soldiers as the
able and alert commandant at Baltimbre
at a time during the war when not only
military skill and ability were required but
the subtler mental qualities of analysis, in
order to cope with the intriguing resident
enemies of the Union there, Will not be sur—
prised in reading this unique, almost wierd
but intensely fascinating book. The book,as
its mere title might imply, is not a strictly
religious novel. His slight references to the
incidents narrated in the GosPels are touched
reverently and deftly, and the work may be
said to be rather one of the General’s vivid
imagination, weaving into pleasing story the
histories of the Jews and Romans at the
opening of the Christian era. The book is cer-
tainly original, vivid and full of exciting
incidents, and one that is sure to be largely
read. A. Selleek, Norwalk!
A Year of Wrecks,—A True story by a
Victim—Harper Brathera--—-Whether Tour-
gee’s Fool’s Errand, had anything to do in
suggesting the above book or not, one thing
is certain, a most entertaining and profitable
descriptive tale, has resulted from the au—
thor’s fanciful creations. In it, many an
over sanguine Yankee soldier and adventurer
who strayed south after the war and entered
upon, what looked to him, the sure road to
fortune, will see the mirror held up to his
sorrowfully experienced eyes, wherein, all
the delusion of his earlier hopes are fled.
There is a quaintness, in the authors humor,
that makes the book exceptionally entertain-.
ing. A. Selleok. '
Friends Worth Knowing,—Glfmpru of
American National Histary,—-Harper
Bremen—This is a liberally illustratr (1
little book for the children and issued in the
nick of time for Holiday gifts. The author.
Ernest Ingersoll, is pretty well-known as a
most entertaining writer for the popular
magazines of the day, and these chapters are
taken largely from Scribner’s, Appletons,
Lippincotts, Harpers, St Nicholas, and other
magazines, where the matter was first con-
tributed by the authors. The illustrations
of birds and animals are sure to win‘ the
enthusiastic regard of the young of the house-
hold. A. Selleek, Nomalk.
Wm. Cullen Bryant—A Biographical
Sketch, etc , by A. J. Sgnrington, -—Harpcr
Brothers. —'l‘bis is a book of some 250 pages
giving a pleasing biography of the great poet,
editor, with copious selections from his best
poems, etc. A. Selleek, Norwallc.
Harper’s Bazaar.
Probably by far the best lady's publication
where fashion and literature is combined in
its most pleasing and attrrctive form, is the
well known HARrMn's BAZAAR, :whpse pro-
spectus for 1881 appears in another place. It
should occupy 'a place in every family of
taste. We will furnish it for 1881 with the
GAZETTE for $5.25.

Scribner’s for 1880.
This now justly and universally esteemtd
magazine is to be made more able and more

cxcéllence has been most; remarkltble, while

reached the marvelous. So thoroughly good
and attractive a monthly will not lack
for liberal support, so long as the universal
Yankee enjoys and is' bound to encourage
genuine worth. skill‘ and enterprise. Scrib—

A Fine Thing for the Teeth.
Fragrant SOZODONT is a composition of
the purest and choicest ingredients of the
Oriental vegetable kingdom. Every ingre-
dient is well known to have a beneficial effect
on the teeth and gums. Its embalurlug or
antiseptic propertv and aromatic fragrance
makes it a toilet luxury. SOZODONI‘ re—
moves all disagreeable odors from the breath
caused by catarrah, bad teeth, &c. It is en-
tircly free from the injurious and acrid
proprieties of tooth pastes and powders
which destroy the enamel. One bottle lasts

Of course. What else are we here for?
For example: Mr. Asa F. Bearse, of Cotuit,
Mass, had been troubled for years with
diseased liVer and could get no relief. He
was not fit for business. and carried his life
likea burden on his back. Just then his
friend, Capt. Houdy said: “Asa, why don’t
you send to Dr. David Kennedy,of Rondout,
N. Y., and get a bottle of his: “Favorite
Remedy ?” It will only cost adrillar, and
may do you good.” earse did so, and after
a short time was sound as the dollar with
which he bought'thc medicine. To be. sure.
