The President.
Give thanks to the Lord, the President
still lives! He has not madethe rapid gains
all had wished for, the past week, but in the
language of his physicians “he has held his
own," despite the terribly debilitating weath-
er of last week. It is now decided upon to
remove him the present week, by rail to
Long Branch. Elaborate preparations are
made for his transportation, so as to cause
the least possible fatigue. We predict for
this change the happiest results, and our own
familiarity with the hateful atmospheric con—-
ditions about Washington, only make us rc-_
grct he had nctjsooncr been removed. With
invigorating air tolbrealhe and his stomach
performing all its functions, he ought speed-
ily to be on the high road to recovery.
The deep and tender regard for him
so universally shown throughout the land
and the world, has :made him the central
character of the ago. His heroic struggle for
life, and his high and noble bearing through-
out all his weary days, weeks and months
of unmerited suffering, has made him the
especially beloved of all lands. Men, women,
and little children, watch with intensest so-
licitude, every recurring bulletin from his
sick chamber, and the Godly throughout the
world, pray without ceasing, that the shot of
the cowardly assassin may not prove fatal.
May the all wise Father save, guide and
prosper the Nation its noble ruler, and all the
inhabitants thereof.

Good News.
James Flatt, Esq, the son of the Senator,
returned home from a visit to his parents in
the Adirondacks last week, and reports his
rm:
father as entirely well. The senators abscess -
had completely healed, ’and he was enjoying
as robust health and strength as in former
years. He does not expect to leave his cot-
tage at Long Lake till about the middle of
Gen. S. W. Kellogg of Waterbury
and Post Master Sperry of New Haven, and
.others expect to visit him during the present
month. '
W
Accident;
We regret to learn that the public’s old
friend—Myers, met with the serious misfor~
tune of falling froma ladder at his rural home
in Wilton, last week, and fracturing the
bones of his leg. This is particularly unfor-
tunate just at this time, as Mr. Myers had
completed all his arrangements and had a
most attractive theatrical company organized
. to “take the road" the present week. He will
be likely to let the boys do the ladder climb-
ing after this, as all mature venerable fellows
should do.
A man named» Martin Gracia came down
from Danbury yesterday to go to Bridgeport.
He boarded a western bound train, and dis-
covering his mistake as the cars were passing
Whistleville, jumped off. He was somewhat
bruised about the face, but was not seriously
injured. Dr. Moses Pardee cared'for him. _
am
Another indlan Massacre. .
Intelligence was receivcd’on Saturday that
the band of Indians known as the White
Apaches, located in Arizona, had risen and ‘
massacred Gen. Carr and his command, con-
sisting of almut 110 men and 7 ofiicers, The
occasibn accrued to be the attempted arrest of
their medicine man by the troops, upon which
the Indian guides and scouts connected with
the command turned and fired upon the sol-
diers, and being joined by other Indiana the
entire command of Gen. Carr were surround-
ed and killed. Full details have not yet
been received and are awaited .with much
anxiety. Troops are being rapidly pushed
forward to exposed points.
was
Runaway. '
At five p. m. yesterday the fine sorrel
horse of Mr._ W. J. Gunning broke from a
post where it _.was hitched on the west side
of Maiu’strcgtrgnear the store of C. 8. Lock-
wood and'r'hshing madly up the street, dashed
the 2 hosted rockaway to‘ which he was at-
ggchgd into and upon the rear of the wagon
otMrs H. E. Hyatt of Silver Mine stand-
ing in front of Comstock’s clothing store-
knocking Mrs. H. out and quite severely iu~
juring her back and crushing the hind wheel
of the vehicle. The Gunning horse then
dashed into the wagon of Chas. A. Ambler,
Itanding in front of Prowitt’s Hardware
store and in which was Mr. A’s little boy
The lad seeing the maddened horse dashing
towards him dragging its own carriage bot—
tom up after it, with presence of mind
jumped to the sidwalk and thus saved him-
self from serious injuries as the horse
struck the Ambler wagon in the center
overturning it and breaking the reach and
otherwise damaging it. At this junction,
Wm. Hands,W. B. Glines and Ed. Donnelly
sprang after the Gunning horse and though
the brute struggled desperately to get away
and bit andpore the hand of young Donnelly
and seized Gliues’ hand several times, the
three succeeded in conquering and holding
him, till he could- be disentanglcd from his
overturned carriage._
The capture of the animal saved a very
serious series of further accidents, in all
probability and the parties securing him are
entitled to all praise for their decrute effort
to hold and quiet him. This lathe same horse
who made things so lively along Belden Av—
enue a few days since, and if he repeats these
exploits many times more will have to be
put down as a professional runaway.

Pleasant Weddings.
Early on Tuesday evening last, a large
party of relatives and personal friends assem-
bled at the pleasant residence of Burgess
Platt Price, on West avenue, to witness the
marriage of his daughter, Miss Hattie Price,
to Mr. John A. Camp, son of A. II. Camp.
Esq. The house was brilliantly illuminated
with gas, while the wide verandahs were
lit up with Chinese lanterns. The handsome
interior was tastefully decorated with a pro—
fusion of beautiful flowers. In one of the
parlors stood an elegant, upright, cabinet
grand piano—the father’s wedding gift to the
daughter—at which Prof._,Hollein, of 'New
York, presided and discoursed music appro-
priate to such an occa‘sion; With unusual
promptncss the happy couple presented
themselves before thcliev. Charles M. Sel-
leck, rector "of St. Paul’s, who soon pro—
nounced them man and wife in the impress-
ive and beautiful ceremony of the Episcopal
Church. A merry scene followed in which
congratulations were showcrcd upon the
happy pair. Some of the younger guests
indulged in a merry dance, and others exam-
ined the numerous presents, which were
varied in character, beautiful in design and
execution, and useful as well as ornamental.
A bountiful supper followed, served by F.
Mead, caterer, and better entertainment could
not have been desired. At nine o‘clock the
bride and groom started in a coach for
the :train followed by a merry party
of their friends in a car to prolong their
farewells at the depot. The bridal journey
includes a trip to Saratoga and a sojourn in
the Catskill Mountain region. The bride and
groom have hosts of warm personal friends
who unite in best wishes for their future
prosperity and happiness.
An unusually agreeable and delightful
company of friends were present at the resi—
dence of Cashier Craufurd on the occasion of
the marriage of his daughter “Lottie" to Wm.
E. Smith, Esq, last week. The costumes of
bride and lady guests were lovely in the ex—
treme, and, while there was no effort at more
display, the cordial air of sociability pervad-
ing the entire company rcndered‘the occasion
one exceptionally delightful. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. James A. VanBuren,
of New Jersey, who, it will be remembered,
not long since married a daughter of the Hon.
Asa Smith, uncle to the present happy groom.
Rev. Mr. Hamilton was present to see the
nuptial knot properly tied, and at its conclu~
sion expressed his satisfaction with the
beautiful ceremonies of his sister church.Thc
bridal gifts were unusually numerous, and L
we might add, unusually sensible and practi—
cally useful. Many were quite' unique, orig-
inal and costly, and could not have failed to
prove a delight to the fair bride and the hosts
of friends who came to wish her all earthly
joy and wedded bliss. The groom is a most
worthy son of the late Wm. T. Smith, who
in our boyhood days used to vigorously
measure his lance as editor of the Norwalk
Democrat with the then urchin of the GA-
Subscquently he became an officer
of the New Haven Steamboat Company, in
which service he was, we believe, when he
died. The groom, his son, is a wide—awake,
young New York business man, and with
his fair bride start out on the voyage of life
with every earthly prospect of success and
happiness, as is abundantly invoked and
wished by all who know them.
A son of ExState Treasurer Talimadge
Baker and a daughter of the late Wm. H.
Duncan, city, were married Monday evening.
‘ m
It is said that one of Norwalk’s fair au—'
burn haired damsels were brought home from
some pleasure party the other evening intox-
icated, and dumped on the front stoop like a
log—Democrat.
Well, when a dealer has paid for the priv-
lege of selling rum to our children, why has
he not just as good a right to sell to our girls
as to our boys! And why hasn’t a girl just
as good a right to disgrace herself and her
friends, by drinking, as a boy, anyway i
. The Cramer Verdict.
At the session of the coroner’s jury at
West Haven, Saturday, more witnesses were
examined, who gave confirmalory evidence.
Prof. Chittenden’s report was read in which
he states that he found arsenic in all parts of
the body and “in such quantmes as, under
ordinary circumstances, would indicate a
probably fatal dose.” Dr. Prudden’s report
was also read. He states that all organs of
the body were in healthy condition, no marks
of violence were'found, and that the post
mortem examination did not reveal the cause
or manner of her death.
The jury went into secret consultation at
2:50 p. m., and at 6550 p. :11. announced this
verdict: -
“The undersigned jurors being duly em-
paneled and sworn to inquire of the cause and
manner of the death of Jennie E. Cramer,
late of New Haven, CL, whose death was
sudden and untimely and the cause and man—
ner of which was unknown, having viewed
the body 'of said deceased and considered the
evidence given us, do on our oaths say :
That said Jcnuic E. Cramer came to her
death by poison and violence, and that James
Malley, J r., of New Haven, Ct,, is criminally
responsible for her death. We also find that
Walter E. Malley, of New Haven, Ct., and
Blanche Douglass, of New York city, ure
morally responsible for the same."

South Norwalk’ has before been noted for its
pipe-laying accomplishments, but seldom, if

The County Fair.
The County Fair opens next week Tucs-
day and continues through Friday. The
general yrogrammc will be found in our ad‘
vertising columns.
Mr. Westendorf, the Bridgeport Ghost
Show man, will act as a sort of Director of
Amusements. He will have a tent on the
grounds in which he will give entertainments
at a small admission, and will give certain
free peformances daily on the track.
Gov. Bigelow and Staff have accepted the
invitation to attend our County Fair and will
be present on Thursday of next week. He
will hold a reception on the grounds during
the afternoon. Our local Military com~
panics are expected to turn out and perform
escort duly. ‘
The Wheeler 55 WilsOn Band are to give
concerts in the exhibition building at the Fair

ings, during Fair week. ' » '
Among the other attractions at the coming
Agricultural Fair at Norwalk, will be Mr.
B. A. Bulkley’s hatching machine which has
a capacity for 1,600 eggs. This machine was
on exhibition at Concy Island a year ago
where it hatched out over 5,000 chickens and
those who saw it said it was a wonderful
machine, and well worth going some ways to
see. To all poultry raiscrs as well as others,
we would say don’t fall to look it up, should
you go to the fair. Show it to your children
it will please them as much if not more than
it does you. Remember it is the largest one
ever exhibited in this State.

Obituary.
HENRY HOLMES,
amost estimable man . and citizen, passed
away on Saturday last. Colored though he
was, he had all the qualities of a true Christ.
ian gentleman. He was honest and faithful
to every 'trust, modest and respectful as he
was self-respecting. For many months past
he has been a great sufferer from what he
did not hesitate to state as his belief, was
poison, and his sufferings indicated the pres-
ence in his system of some poisonous com-
pound. Holmcs for many years followed
the occupation of an oystcrman and thus
saved up quite a little property. His always
neat and tasty cottage was an attractive pic-
ture beside our harbor at the end of Beatty
street. He was long a member and sexton
of St. Paul’s church. He leaves a family
and many, many personal-friends who will
mourn his loss and reverently and respect-
fully cherish his memory ‘as a truly upright.
and good man.-
MAR! JARVIS.
There passed to rest on the last day of the
last month, at the residence of Dr. J. A. Mc-
Lean, a woman of very remarkable character.
Miss Mary Jarvis was a lady of distinguished
connections and associations. During her
more than four score years of life in Nor—
walk, she was ever a centre of interest and‘
affectionate consideration. She was a
zealous and devout member of St. Paul’s
church. She was an aunt of Mrs. Col. Sam-
uel Colt of Hartford and lochly related to the
Pinckneys and McLeans of Norwalk. She
has passed to her rest at a great age, venerat-
ed and beloved by all who knew her.
Fat Men’s Clam Bake.
To-day the thirteenth annual clam bake of
the Fat Men’s association will occur at Roton
Point, Norwalk. Several of the members
are dissatisfied with the place chosen for the
gathering—Palladium.
The above may be true as to “place" and
“several members,” but all who came were
loud in their praises of Ackert’s splendid
roast and more than ample spread-
While there was a lack of fat men present,
it is estimated that some 2,500 people were
in attendance. President Willard Perkin s
of Waterbury, tipped the beam at 430 lbs
and no one could approach him in weight.
He was continued in office, and W. P. Sharpe
of Dan'bury, was chosen Secretary. 'P. Mur-
phy, of Westport, was elected Treasurer. ‘
Music Hall.
The season opens on Wednesday evening
with Joseph Murphy in “Kerry be,” avcry
pleasing Irish drama which gave excellent
satisfaction at the same place last season.
Mr. Joseph Murphy has played “ Kerry
Gow” runny times in this city, and he will
have to play it a great many times more be—
fore he shall wear out his welcome. He has
never had a more attentive, a more delighted
audience than greeted him last night at the
Arch, and followed him in perfect sympathy
through all his trials and adventures, his
manly wooing of Norah, his hiuudering ap—
proaches to Norah’s father to reveal the state
of his heart, his arrest, imprisonment, escape
his horseshoeing business, and so on till the
end. The play is full of the keeuest repartc,
which kept the people in a roar of laughter.
As most readers know, it has some telling
situations, and Mr, Murphy, while he shines
in comedy, docs ample justice to the pathetic
scenes, and likewise sings several tender old
songs in a tuneful tenor voice. -

The Providence papers give an interesting
account of the cordial reception of Rev. J. J.
Woolley, pastor of the Congregational
Church, Pawtuckct, upon his arrival home
after his vacation, part of which lie assed
in this city. The back in which Mr. lWool—
lcy and family were on their way to their
residence, was stopped at the church and the
occupants wereinformed that friends were
waiting in the vcstry to welcome him home.
On entering the‘ vestry about fifty ladies and
gentlemen formed a circle and welcomed
him by singing “Home, Sweet Home.” Mr.
Woolley‘m' a few brief remarks expressed his
great surprise. Then followed hearty hand-
shakmg and words of welcome, after which
the pastor and family were escorted into the
ladies’ parlor to a table loaded with good
things which was followed with floral offer-
ings and presents—Republican.

right. There was no clopement, or Donny.
brook Fair ruction in the case. He was
simply fixed up to goand greet his daughter

Somcthing definite is now known about the
participation of France in the celebration of
the Yorktown Centennial. The Marquis de
Rochambeau writes to Colonel Peyton an-
nouncement of his coming, together with
representatives of the Lafayette family, and
speaking of the probabilities of numerous
officers, representing the different depart-
ments of the French Government sailing with
them from Havrc on the 14th. The French
West India fleet has been ordered to York-
town to take part in the naval display and to
escort. the Government delegations, which
include many officers of high rank. Em.
dently the French mean to accept the part
assigned to them in the ceremonies with
hearty good will. Their cooperation and the
action of our own Government give to the
affair an interest and a dignity which raise
it far above the many local centennial 'celc-
brations of Revolutionary events held since
the Philadelphia Exhibition—Tribune.

Coup's Circus.
Coup gave one of the best circus exhibi-

‘wcll repay any one to “drop in” if down to

There is hardly a literary man in America
whose writings have been more widely read
than those of Dr. J. G. Holland, nor one
whose name is better known among the
people. The Century 00., publishers of

Magazine” after October), will soon issuca

The Yale Business College.
The attentior’of young men is espccy
directed to the advertisement of the, as
Business College, of New Haven, to be
founcfin this issue. .This is not a new insti—
tution but one which has been ‘in operation
for seventeen years; and has fitted a large
number _of young men for practical business
life, including quite a number from this im-
mediate vicinity. Thc benefits to be de—
rived from a course of study are not confined
to young men but ladies are also received in
any department. Of this institution the New
Haven Courier of last Friday says:—
‘The English and classical department of
the Yale Business College, Insurance build-
ing, opens on Monday, Sept. 5. Mr. Loves
ridge, the principal, has already received
many new applications and no doubt will
have a larger attendance than ever the com-
ing season owing to the established reputa-
tion of the institution. Mr. Loveridge num-
bers many young men successfully launched
in business life who were his pupils, and the
school can be highly commended as well
managed and affording an excellent opportu-
lnity for preparation for business hfe.

Reunion of the 2d Conn. Battery
and 491k Mass. Vols.
The Second Conn, Battery. of Bridgeport,
arranged a reunion at Seaside Park, on Sat—
urday, and in special honor of Col. Sumner,
of the 40th Mass. Vols. and who is now of
that city, the Connecticut Veterans invited
the' old Bay State boys down to compare
notes and cat clams with them. Capt. F. A.
Sceley had taken an active lead in collecting
the wherewith and getting the details in
crdcr for a. successful reunion and not a
thing was wanting to the complete enjoy-
ment ofevcry guest. Mayor Wessels prc-
sided over the tables and at the proper time,
called out Gov. Bigelow, P. T. Barnum, Cole
Sumner, Judges Beers and Lockwood, Col.
Dwight Morris, Capt. Dunhnm, two Lieut.-
Governors of Massachusetts, Editor Caudce,
and hosts of others, to respond to various
toasts. Rev. anllaulcnbeck answered for
Norwalk. Special and appropriate references
were made to our stricken President so nobly
battling for his life.
' Barnum made the most practical speech of
the occasion in response to the sentiment—
“Pcace.” He said he was a peace man—he
was always for peace, even if he had to fight
for it. He described a bit of his experience
while at Manchester, England, a few weeks
ago. He visited one of the largest Shirt
Menufactories in the world and found wo-
men there were making a good shirt, and
finding their own thread, for less than two
cents upicce,or at 11 pence a dozen. He
said this told the. whole story of American
power and prosperity. Here our working
people get good wages, live well and send
their children to school, and, he added, it is
the school that makes us a great and power—
ful people. In Europe education is neglect—
ed, the American laborers? style of living is
miknown among the same classes there and
the common people, the masses, thus become
elements of weakness and offear, with them
instead of trust,rcliancc and power as with
us. “ Gentlemen,” said he, waxing warm
with his subject, as he held up his English
made shirt, “there is no politics in this ques-
tion—it is far more serious than the ‘bloody
shirt' question—this maintaining our good
prices for our laborers and thus giving them
the means of good living and good education
for their children. Keep on and keep up
your tariff and then let all the poor of the
earth come to America for there are and will
be acres, bread and work for all, and safety
too, so long as you continue to furnish them
the means for good living and for education.
Educate all who come so that it shall not be
that he is a German, an Irishman, an English-
man, Scotchman, or Italian; but that what-
ever he was, he is an American now. Em-
ployment at remunerative prices, will pro-
mote educatiOn, and ahigher and better liv-
ing among all classes who seek our shores,
and our protective tariff is our chief bulwark
of national greatness, power and prosperity,
and veteran soldiers, and one and all, don’t
you let'it be repealed."

A Woman Burned to Death.
On Thursday evening of last wmk, at
about half past five, Abbie Hoyt, wife of
Sam. Hoyt, living in a house hired of Walter
Smith, about two miles east of the Morris
station, attempted to kindle the fire for tea,
with paper kindlings. It went out and the
unfortunate woman poured on kcrosense oil
from a can. There must have been fire
concealed from the first lighting, for in a
moment it blazed up, the fire ran into the can
which exploded, covering the woman wtih
blazing oil. She ran out of- the doors all in
a blaze and screaming. Some men who were
at work near came to her assistance and
finally put out the flame by wrapping her in
ablanket. They also extinguished the fire
which had been set by the explosion in the
house. Mrs. Hoyt was horribly burnt, and
died about 11 o’clock the following morning.
An added horror was the premature birth of
a child, but little before the time for its
natural birth, but (lead. Mrs. Hoyt was but
nineteen years old and had been married but
ten months.

The old Washington Hotel buildinngroad-
way and-Battery Place, New York City,—
said to be the oldest building in the city,——
hasbccn sold and is to be torn down to give
place to a modern business structure tcn
stories high. The Tribune says: -
“The old house, which will have to give
way to this modern improvement, was-built
in 1742. Previous to that time the site had
been occupied by a tavern which has been
built in the seventeenth century by Pieter
Kooks, whose wife kept it long after his
death . Pieter chks was an cfiiccr in the
Dutch service, and a fighter in the Indian
war of 1698. The present house when built
was a copy of that of the British ambassador
at Lisbon, and all its plans were sent here
from the Portuguese capital. It was built,
according to the testimony of William L.
Stone, by Sir Peter, afterward Admiral,
Warren, K. C. B. it was considered at the
time it was built one of the finest mansions
in the country. One of its rooms, 26 feet
by 40 feet in dimensions, was a famous
banqueting room, and was used on all great
occasions. After the British forces captured
New York City, in the war of the Revolution
it was occupied successively by such dis-
tinguished British commanders as Sir Wil-
Carlton, afterward Lord Dorchester. Major
Andre who was in the family of Sir Henry
Clinton, and his aid, went from this house on
his fatal journey up the Hudson River to
meet Benedict Arnold.”
