WASHINGTON, D. 0., May 27, 1882.
DEAR GAZETTE :—

The principal scene of interest this week
has been in the House of Representatives
where the'Republicans and Democrats have
been at loggerhcads over the contested South
Carolina election cues of Ma'ckey or. O’Con-
nor. Thc Democrats have fillibustered the
entire week and thus have prevented the
Republicans-fr-nn my consideration of the
elected member’s case and the questions at
issue. The committee on Elections after an
exhaustive examination of the case decided
to report to the llonsc a bill favoring the
unseating of O‘Connor anti the seating of
Hockey. Upon this matter the Democrats
have maintained a defiance Of all'rnlcs of
equity and justice anti, because the present
occupant of the seat is a'Democrat, have
steadfastly filibustercd to prevent his'remoyal
though it has been conclusively proven that
only by the most barefaccd fraud he had
secured his present seat. The two parties
are as two balls with locked horns neither
being willing to retrace a step. It now looks
however, as if some compromise or coup
d’etat would soon be reached and the public
business proceeded with. Should no com,-
promise be made the session is liable to be
prolonged indefinitely, and as there are sev-
eral appropriation bills yet-to be acted upon,
that result will cause considerable trouble
and confusion. To his credit be it said, the
only Democratic Representative from Con-

necticut, Mr. Phelps, has refused to join _his
party in their filibustering and on all occa-
sions has voted, and in several instances his
vote was the one without which there would
have been no quorum. He avers he will not
violate the rules of the House by acting with
his misled and misguided party.

CAPITOL NOTES.

A bill was passed by the Senate Monday,
directing the deposit of all monies paid into
any court of the United States in a pending

. cause, with the treasurer, or assistant treas-
urer, or a designated depository of the United
States and when there is none such, with a
bank to be designated by the Court.

The. bill introduced by Mr. Calkins, of
Indiana, last week, to aid in making further
Arctic explorations and providing for an
appropriation of $100,000 for that purpose,
was summarily killed Tuesday, the Com-
mittee on Naval Affairs agreeing to report it
to theEHouse adversely. Good!

Mr. Gormau introduced a joint resolution
in the Senate Thursday granting the use of
tents 8:0,, for the National - Encampment of
the Grand Army of the Republic in Balti-
more in June. -

The President on Thursday sent to the
Senate the nomination, 'of James Pendlcton
to be postmaster at Slonington, Conn.

THE TARIFF COMMISSION.

The members of the Tariff Commission so
far as they were agreed upon at the Cabinet
meeting yesterday are John L. Hayes, of
Massachusetts; Henry W. Oliver of Penn-
sylvania; A. M. Garland of Illinois: Robert
'P. Porter, of the District of Columbia;
Alexander Mitchell, and James Chestnut Jr,,
of South Carolina. The list will probably be
completed by the selection of William A.
Wheeler of New York, who, if nominated,
will be chairman of the commission, and J.

- A. Ambler of Ohio. The names of the com-
missioners will be sent to the Senate next
week, it is believed, upon the President’s re-
turn from New York.

But for the fact that Connecticut has thus
far been snubbed in every thing she has asked
for, there might be some reason to hope that
Mr. Williams, of Windham County ,or Mr.
Cheeney, of Hartford County, would be
selected, either of whom would make a most
excellent and thoroughly practical commis-
sioner. Mr. Eaton was a good deal talked
about for a place on the board, but he early
announced that he would not accept such
place if tendered. He had not only been
the putative father of the bill creat-
ing the commission but had 3 been ac-
tively engaged in securing the passage of
the bill since he left the Senate and he said
to us, he should deem it indecorous, under
the circumstances even to :permit his many
friends who so desiren to do, to present his
name to the President as one of the commis-
sioncrs.

PERSONALS.

Hon. Alexander H. Stephens met with a
very painful accident a few days since, by
the slipping of his crutch on the tiles at the
Capitol his ankle was severely sprained.
Calling upon him the other day to execute a
commission for'Rev.'Dr. Chiids, we found
the venerable statesman bolstered in his easy
chair, sufiering acute pain. but learning we
were from Connecticut, he enquired most
earnestly for his “ old friend Truman Smith
and wcrlt on to'tell us the followingbit of
historical reminiseuce. He said when he met
President Lincoln on board the U. S. Steamer
at Fortress Monroe, as a Commissioner from
the Confederate States,—aftcr they had re
tired to the cabin for business, be said to Mr.
Lincoln—“now before entering upon our
discussion please let me inquire if you know
anything about my dear old friend Truman
Smith Of Connecticut ? He says Mr. Lincoln
with ajmischicvous twinkle in his eye. replied
“Yes, I know all about him. He has remar-
ried and is as vigorous .as the nation."

The Post of Thursday again chronicles the
arrival here, of Prof. John H. Leeds of New
Haven. And by the way, why can’t the
democrats have sense enough to send the
Professor down here as the successor to Judge
Phelps? _

Hon. N. D. Sperry, New Haven'ef model
post-master, has been here .the past week.

Mr. F. Rockwell, of Merideu, is to be here
over Sunday. ,

Hon. S. W. Kellogg, was called home very
unexpectedly on account of the sudden
death of his aged mother in Massachusetts.
Gen. K. has received much commendation
from distinguishcdlawyers for a very able

law-brief‘presented before the U. S. Supreme
Court here on the matter of the revenue tax-
ation upon knit woolen goods, which in
consequence of a palpable errorin the compi~
lation of the U. S. Revised Statutes, have
been subjected to a ruinous tariff rating by
the Treasury Department. Err-Confederate
and ex-Congressman Joe J ohnston. of Virgi-
nia, is now an Insurance agent. He says had
he remained in Congress he would have been
a beggar by this time, and some of his friends
are mean enough to start up and say they
don’t see much difference between being a
beggar and a Congressman, any way. The
beggar is certainly surest of a quiet and
pleasant time of it, anyhow.

There is a great deal of gossip about, and
no doubt much pressure on the President to
remove Minister Lowell from the Court of
St. James, and the woods is full of willing
candidates for the successorship. It is
rumored that if any change is made the
President will‘ exchange one Massachusetts
man for another and replace Mr. Lowell by
vex-Governor Boutwell.

Guiteau now seems to think tflrc is very
little chance of his Attorney Mr. Reed, doing
anything for him in the Habcus Corpus way,
but expresses confidence that President
Arthur will commute his punishment to im-
prisonment, inasmuch a he was made Presi-
dent through his act. is keepers say he

[apparently does not yet belive that he is to be
hanged, although the scaffold is already in
readiness for his execution. As Ever, B.

 

Will. Betta offers his thoroughbred Jersey

Bull, Springwood Boy for sale.

Phoenix Engine Company’s rooms have
been newly painted andfrcshencd up the
past week.

’ mSt. John the Georgetown builder
has at the contract for two handsome cot-
tages for sons of D'. K, Hoyt, Ridgefield.

At the annual meeting of the Connecticut

Medical Society, on Wednesday last, at New
Haven, Dr. Wm.,G. Bronson of New‘Canaan,

hours, and then the east again prevailed.
The long continuance'of easterly winds this
season is unprecedented, so far as we can
remember, though we have heard it claimed
that there was one as protracted the season
that the cholera first made its appearance in
this country, at any rate, we have‘bad a sixty
day term of east winds, and not a continuous
twenty—four hours passed without the wind,
being during some portion of the time from
an easterly direction. That the cause of the
annual Apiil anti May term of easterly winds
is the one we suggested in our article of "day
9th, seems to be generally admitted, and now
we see that the Offices of the weather bureau
trace the cause as we tiieu’ditl to the ice lloc
on our coast, while the ice is passing from
the Arctic regions to the Gulf. The ice floe
this year reached our coast about the first of
April in considerable quantities and has con-
tinued up to this time, and large, fields of ice,
and large numbers of.icebergs are still report-
ed on the coast of Newfoundland bound
south, and until they have passed our coast,
we cannot expect settled warm weather. The
effect of this protracted term of east winds
will not be so disastrous to the fruit trees as
it would have been owing to the unusual cold
weather in the early part of April, which re-
tarded the blossoming of the buds, and this
we hope saved much of the crop.

Since writing the above, we have had a
thunderstorm, and a series of heavy showers
which has taken the chill from the air, but
how long the westerly winds now prévailing
will contin’ue, seems difiicult to determine,
we hope the change will be permanent, but
we fear otherwise.

 

Manson Hoyt has an old time curiosity in
the shape of a memorandum' book handed
It has
the name and date on the fly leaf, viz:
Samuel Smith, 1709. It appears to have
beenused as an account, family record and
memorandum book. The entries and spell-
ing are quaint and old fashioned, but very
plainly and neatly and accurately done. We
are apt to pride ourselves on the vast strides
made in this, the 18th century, but we must
confess we cannot always realize it when
confronted with the relics of the past. This
book, although of rough, coarse paper and
wooden cover, is in shape and style of that of‘
the most popular diaries of the present day,
having a tuck or pocket in front, and the
peumauship, although probably done with a
quill, could not have been better done with
any of the best steel pens of the present day..:

The Bank Statements this week will' well
pay a perusal by our business men, showing
as they all do, a fair and prosperous business
for the last three months, indicative of better
and easier times for all. These reports also
show how 'well the management has been,
thereby reflecting credit upon and proving
into what good hands our monied institutions
are at present.

 

 

Danbury & Norwalk R. R.

We have received a pocket time table is-
sued by the Danbury & Norwalk Railroad,
to take effect on Monday, June 5th prox.
Trains leave Danbury at 6.40 and 8.00 a.
m., 12, 4.10 and 7. 30 p. m. .

Trains leave South Norwalk for Danbury
at 9.25 a. m., 2.15, 4 55, 6.03 and 10 p. m.

The 4.55 p. m. express from South Nor-
walk, for Danbury and Litchfleld, land pas-
sengers at Danbury in one hour-and fifty-
eight minutes from the Grand Central Depot
in New York, which we think cannot but be.
pleasing to our Danbury friends that are in
a hurry to get home.

On the time table appears a view or the
Brookside Park and of’Wilson’s Point,which
is soon to be classed among the stations of
this road.

This time table contains a correct railroad
map of lines of road from New‘ York and
Albany, to Boston, and all stations in the
lower portion of Massachusetts, and all
stations in this State, together with a page
of information as to connecting trains with

the Danbury & Norwalk Railroad.

The Adelphi is again this season the leader
of our fleet Sound Steamers. She invhriably
leads the van. On Friday she made her dock
at South Norwalk, at 5.40 ; fully 15 minutes
ahead of time, She is a goer, and no mis-
take. Now if theDanbury and Norwalk
Ectenst’on was done so that she couid have-
landed hcr passengers at Wilsou’s Point,{thcy
would have reached South Norwalk at 5.10
or only two hours and ten minutes from New
York city. '

the opening day for Rotou Point, “The
Brighton of the East,” this season. He has
provided many attractions for the occasion

Chas. W. Smith, city, has the agency for
this county of the noted Polar Bear Flour,
manufactured by Fred. W. Spiith & Co., of
New York.

A slight ripple of trouble among the weav-
ers at the Cassimere mill of Union Co’s. last
week, was promptly allaycd by the discharge
of an obnoxious super.

The auction tale of the Union Company’s
stok advertised to take place at the Sign Post
on Saturday last, was, postponed until Wed-
nesday, June 7. See adv.

A rare chance to secure a handsome coun-
try seat is oficrcd by Mr. Josiah Kellogg, he.

Fred Mead, our confectioncr, is putting in
a water motor to run his ice cream freezers;
the business has grown to such proportions
that it don’t pay to do it by hand power any
longer.

SieNaT Mints is the name of the new addi-

Decoration Day is at hand again. Greetit

with a reverent welcome. Our veteran sol-
diers steadily grow fewer in number, and
those who remain will not long be able to
go on~crowuing with flowers the graves of
their dead comrades. But their children
will do so gratefully, and will crown theirs
also when they are gone‘. Think again what
they did for the nation l-, Consider what it is
to-day—the North and South cordially har-
monious, with the country being filled up
and developed as never before, with business
prosperous, with education rapidly extending
its influence, with more to make its future
bright than any other nation on earth seems
to possess—it is such a state of things which
exists to-day, because of the struggles and
self-sacrifices and victories of those whom
Decoration Day commemorates.—Oongrqqa-
tionah'st.

The services at Union Cemetery, Five
Mile River, on Sunday afternoon were of an
interesting character. Fowler Post. of the
G. A. R., was out with full ranks. Pots of
flowers were put on each grave. All the
graves were marked by a email flag placed
upon each one. . Rev. Mr. Thomas failed to
appear with his speech, so Mr. Charles R.
Townsend, Rev. Garry Hauleubeek and Rev.
Mr. Mr. Cromlich, were called upon for
short speeches. A choir was also present.~
Commander Edmunds presided. The atten-
dance was very barge. ‘

The services on. Decoration Day, at South
Norwalk, will be as announced in our last
issue. The procession will form at 1:30 this
p. m. on East Washington street and comes
as far up as Butler street, Borough; then
proceeds to Pine Island Cemetery. From
Pine Island the procession will proceed ‘to
the down Town Cemetery and then return
to the Union School grounds, city, where
exercises appropriate to the day will be
holden. Rev. Garry Haulenbeek is announc-
ed as the orator of the day. Douglass Fow-
ler Post, G. A. R., has charge of-the exercis-
es.

On Sunday next, exercises appropriate to
to Memorial Day, will take place under the
auspices of Buckingham Post, G. A. R.

'l‘e exercises of the day will commence
in, the First Congregational church at three
o’clock. All our Sunday \schools and the
Cold W ater Army have ‘ been invited to par-
ticipate. Flags of appropriate color will
designate the rallying points to the children
of the participating societies. Rev. W. H.
Thomas has been invited to address the au-
dience at the church.

The children will march in procession from
the church to St. Paul’s church yard to dec-
orate the graves there; and then proceed to
the Cemetery, where the fifty or more
graves, having been marked by flags, will be
honored with the floral offerings‘ of the
children. A committec‘will then visit the
Catholic Cemetery. Two graves at the Poor
House yard will also be decorated. '

Douglas Fowler Post have been invited to
take part with Buckingham Post. All'sol-
diers and sailors are cordially invited to
unite with the comrades of the two Posts.

‘ It’is hoped that the people of Silver Mine
will attend to the graves in the cemetery-
there. ,

This year the comrades of the G. A. R.,
are to visit for the first time the graves of
Chauncey C. Platt and George W. Smith.
Cover them tenderly.

DANBURY. ,

At a special town meeting on Thursday
last, the citizens voted one hundred dollars
from the town treasury for memorial day
purposes. Rev. James W. Hubbell is to de-
liver the oration.

 

 

 

Mn. EDITOR :—Does the G. A. R. do well
to render equal honor to the rebel dead that
it gives to the Union dead, who died that
their country might live ? What is Decora-
tion Day, a day to honor brave dead men;
or a Memorial Day in onor of a great and
noble cause ? If it the latter, does it
honor the cause to honor those who despised
that cause ?_ A UNION Soumm.

We understand that Mr.Jeremiah Tierney,
of Elm street. who was for a number of years
the Sgcretary of the National Hat Finishers
Association, has, after the usual preliminary
examination, been admitted to the Feirfield
County Bar. We congratulate Mr. Tierney
on being a full-fledged lawyer, and from our
personal acquaintance with him‘we cannot
but think he will prove a valuable acquisi-
tion to the legal fraternity, as he is essen-
tially a man of to-day and full of live and
progressive ideas. We heartily wish him
success in his new field, but regret to learn
that he does not intend to commence practice
for quite a whih yet.

Norwalk, when the business was so generally
suspended during the funeral services, aswss
the case on Wednesday, during the funeral

The new city charter is a bone of conten-
tion yet. The bill for the printing is before

the council for payment. Some years since
some 500 copies of the charter and ordinan-

only is $50. So much for not patronizing
our home typos. ,. _

' Councilman Powell is about disgusted with
trying to build additions to his store, while
bricks are so high, and good laborers scarce.
He has concluded to brick up only one story.

The building of the two brick houses on
Hanford Place, for E. A. Woodward Esq.,
has been postponed on account of the rise in
the price of brick. *

The Extension.

The grading for the track on the extension
is nearly completed, and track laying will
soon be ' in order. The committee under
whose direction the extension is being built,
have decided to enlarge the driveway under
the railroad on Main street, at the junction of
Meadow street, and to have the abutments
placed more oblique, so as 'to give a better
view to drivers of vehicles coming from
opposite directions. This change will be‘
approved by the entire community, no the
road is much traveled, and the opening as
first projected was decidedly objectionable.

m
The Mallcy Trial. ,

‘ The Prosecution rested their side of .the

case on Tuesday morning last and then‘ the

defence commenced with their witnesses.
So far they seem to be attempting to prove

that the Mailey’s were not with Jennie,
Cramer after the Wednesday night carousel

at the Malley mansion. ,

Many of the papers seem dissatisfied be-
cause the prosecution did not succeed in
proving the actual administration of poison
and the actual placing of the body by the
Malley’s where it was found. This we think,
most unreasonable, for in such a case it
would be a miracle to find a witness to the
deed, as the parties cOmmitting or attempt-
ing to commit such a crimo.weuld not be
such fool’s as to attempt anything in pres-
ence of others especially as they had ample
opportunities of administering, by force if
necessary, when there was not a possibility
of their being seen or caught at it by outside
parties.

We hold that the Prosecution proving as
they have done the presence of the Malleye
with their female friend and coadujutor,
Blanche Douglass at SavinRock late on Friday
evening in company with their poor victim,
Jennie Cramer, necessarily fastens it upon
the trio unless they can produce positive
and unimpeachable testimony as to when
and' where, that night they parted from
Jennie, and that on such parting she was in
her usual state of health. We think that the
jurors unless the Malleys do produce such
testimony are not only fully justified and can
conscientiously do so but are bound by their
Oaths to render a verdict of guilty. The evi-
dence is positive so far as any known being
could be expected to testify in the absence of
any one directly a party thereto not weaken-
ing or repentiug of their complicity and turn

ing states evidence. ,_

had fainting turns rogue-mud was cold and
apparently did not breathe. Mr. Joneg‘my
employer, thought that some kind of spirits
would be beneficial but the Major, who was
zealous in the cause of temperance, said he
would not allow him to have any, and if he

died he wanted him to die sober. Nathan
Jane and myself watched together with him
on alternate nights, and Mr. Jones furnished
as with a bottle of dishes? French brandy,
and one of cider spirits, and told us that
when Sam. had one of his |fainting spells to
get his mouth open, give him all the brandy
we could get him to swallow, apply cider
brandy to him freely, rub him vigorously
and put hot bricks around him. We follow-
ed this proscription faithfully. The sweat
would soon start, and he would regain con -
sciousness'. This was continued every night,
of our watching, and Sam. kept growing
better, and eventually rec0vered his health.
He was afterwards killed at a raw mill out
West by a log rolling over him. His father
probably never knew of the remedies used
for his recovery. I am satisfied that our
treatment saved Sam’s. life. I do not relate
this for an argument in favor of the general
use of ardent spirits, but would say that it is
doubtless good in its proper place. the same
as any other stimulant.

The Major when quite aged was station
agent at Cannon’s Station. He lived near
by, and did not stay in the depot much, but
would run out there when he heard the train
coming. It used to be said of him that when
he heard the whistle of an npproachbg train
he would beaten out, stufi an old newspaper
in' the stove, and set fire to it so as to have a
fire for the passengers.

Nathan Jane, mentioned above was a droll
character and made mriny comical remarks.
He was a ood mimic, and wmetbinfl‘of a
ventriloqu at. ‘One night after closing the
store where I was employed, and myself
went over to a “bush mee ng" that the

> Methodists were holding in the woods in

-Weston. A two horse carriage passed as

,- well filled, among whom were several chil-

dren. Soon after it. eed Nate imitated
the cry ,of a child in pl 11, and called out to
the party that one of the children had fallen
out of the carriage. The horses were stop d
until it was satisfactorily ascertained t at
none were missing, when they proceeded on
their way. Nate had a bottle with him out
of which he drank and treated his friends
freely. He with others was sitting on a rock
back of. a tent, and becoming rather noisy,
one of the ministers reproached him, and
accused him of being drunk. “A drunken
man" said Nate, “will get sober, but a d—d
fool will never grow wiser." He said all his
wife’s sisters married Amblers, and he run
opposition to an Ambler. He often remarked
that be married for beauty, and his wife for
riches, and they both got badly diceived.

At a regular meeting of Concord Division
No. 2 Sons of Pemperence,beld Friday even-
ing, May 26th, 1882,: committee was appoint-
cd to prepare suitable resolutions of condo-
lence on the death of Brother WILLIAM
HENRY BENEDICTLSIIG the same to be pub.
lished in the Norwalk Gama.

WHEREAS, God in his infinite wisdom has re-
moved by death from our midst our brother
Wm. H. Benedict, and -

WHEREAS, our brother has long been highly
esteemed by every member of this Divis-
ion, we deem it proper to record our ep-
preciation of his worth and services as a

. member of the Order, therefore
Resolved, that we bow in humble submis-

sion to the Divine Will recognizing a

Father’s band, “who doth not afflict willing-

ly, nor grieve the children of men." “Whose

chastening for the present seemetb not joy-
ous, but grievous, nevertheless afterward it
yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness
unto them which are exercised thereby."
Resolved, that in the death of Brother

Benedict this Division loses a member whose

whole lifetime was devoted to the best inter-

ests of his fellow beings, ever ready to aid
the needy and the distressed-faithful in
every trust—possessing that faith in Christ
which secures the crown of life immortal.

Reeoloed, that while many of our number
are passing away, yet by the blessing of God
our institution endures, though the laborer
dies; their principles and purposes live, there-
fore we that remain resolve to assume the
responsibilities of the future and by Divine
assistance press forward in the work to the
end of life. ‘

Ruched, that this Division tender its heart-
felt sympathy to the family and relatives of
our deceased brothgr in this their sad afflic-
tion.

Resolved, that our room be suitably draped
in mourning and these resolutions be record-

ed on the minutes of this Division, and a

brother.

G‘Now that Summer is approaching, our
frugal, thrifty and neat housewives look out
for conveniencies and all kinds of economical
saving apparatus to take the piece of the bot
stove or range thus saving them from the
drudgery of a hot, steaming kitchen, and
allowing them to have cool refreshing rooms
to live in through the summer. For this pur-

Egret. large number of Gas and Oil Stoves
ve been introduced and are used through-
out the country. Of course every one wants
to have the belt therefore they will do well
to visit Jaqui‘s, between the Adams House
and the Bank Building, and examine the
,Tubnlar Hot Blast in operation. Saturday
he was boiling‘a tea kettle, baking biscuit
and roasting a chicken all at. one - time with
one of these superior stoves, which he claims
to be the best out; no-heat and but little ex-
pense and no danger attending the- running
of one. He Can shit you every time, try him.
