Editorial Letter.

Wasnmorou, D. 0., June 10,1882. >
Dam GAZETTE :—
The President sent the following nomina-
tions ‘to “the Senate to be members 0f the
. tariff commission:

Wm. A. Wheeler, of New York, (chair-
man.) .

John L. Hayes, of Mass. .

‘IIenry W. Oliver, jr., of Penn.

Austin M. Garland, of III.

Jacob Ambler, of Ohio. ‘

John‘s. Phelps, of "Missouri, (declines.)

Robert P. Porter, of District of Columbia.

J uhn W. H. Underwood, of Georgia.

Duncan F. Keuncr, of Louisiana.

These nominations have caused a full and
free amount of grumbling. The exception
is the seltction of ex-Viee President Wheeler
to head the commission. Mr. Porter, also of
this city, is highly approved by all who
know his capabilities, but taken as a whole,
the accusation is made that the commission
has not been selected with a reference, sole
and single, to their fitness. There seemed to
be a wide feeling among others than our
own people, that Connecticut should have
had her manifold manufactories and indus-
tries regarded to the extent of having had
some one of her eminent and practical sons
upon the commission. The names of Chas.
Landers, of New Britian, as a Democrat End
Frederick J. Kingsbury, of Waterbury, as a
Republican, were suggested to the President
among several others, as gentlemen eminent-
ly fit for the service, but our Congressional-
Delegation gefrained from making any such
inordinate pressure upon the President, that
other state delegations are known to have
done and they have received the usual re-
ward such forbearance has hitherto received
from President Arthur. The nominees will
receive Republican Senatol'ial support when
they are up for confirmation, but the Demo-
crats will continue cross and sour that they
did not receive more signal partisan recogni-
tion. The Democratic senators held a caucus
Thursday evening, after the Sénate adjourn-
cd, to arrange for a systematic “bolt” on
their confirmations, but as usual broke up
more divided among themselves, than when
they convened.

Luau—Word has since been received
"from err-Vice President Wheeler respectfully
yet positively declining his appointment.

GENERAL ITEMS.

A subL'committee of the Hohse J udiciary,
Committee has in consideration a substitute
for the bill which lately passed the Senate
providing for a division of the Supreme
Court for the purpose of facilitating busi-
ness, a synopsis of which was published in
the GAZETTE a few weeks since. The new
bill is not yet completed. but its features are
decidedly distinct from any plan heretofore
proposed for _ an appelate court. The
proposition is to have fifteen supreme judges
and to divide the court in such away that the
regular,criminal admiralty.and other branch
es of legal practice shall have separate and
distinct benches or courts. When a case of
extraordinary occasion arises it will be com-
petent for the fifteen judges to sit in bane to
give the final hearing.

The Senate Committee on Post Offices and
Post Roads have addressed a letter to the
Postmaster General asking whether the
proposed reduction of the rates of postage
on letters to 2 cents, and on newspapers and
other printed matter to one-half of the pres-
ent rates, together with the proposed incense
of the rate‘ on all merchandise authorized to
be sent through the mails, can be with safety
and propriety adopted.

It having appeared that an impression has ‘

prevailed that the Postofiice Department had
decided that newspapers and news agents
could not include in their publications bills,
receipts, and orders for subscriptions, it is
stated at the Postofiice Department that no
such ruling has ever been made, as the statute
expressly authorizeslsuch inclosnre in second

class matter.

Treasury officials state that the rumors

that a large amount ,of
in circulation are totally
tion.

, A bill was passed in the House Thursday,
increasing to $40 per month the pension of
any person who, in the late war, lost an arm,
leg, hand or foot, or received disabilities
equal thereto. .

A joint resolution was unanimously passed
in the House, Thursday, authorizing the
Secretary of War to grant the use of 1000
tents for the benefit of the Jewish refugees
at Vineland, N. J. .

inronrsnr PATENT DECISION.

The Commissioner of Patents has just is-
sued an important decision which changes

' the practise of admission of new matter into
pending applications. The decision states
that “under rule 37 an applicant may intro-
duce into his application by amendment a
part of the invention Originally made which
wasjnot incarporated into the application eith
or as a part;‘9f the specification or claim,if_he
swears thatit'he' matter which he desires to
intruduc'e‘ "into hisapplication and make a
part thereof sass part of his originlfl inven-
tion.” ' " ' ‘ '

. y A navy rsnn connussron.

Mr. Rollins, from the Committee on Naval
Affairs, Wednesday, reported to the Senate
a substitute for the bill introduced by Mr. Me
Pherson in March'last to regulate the promo-
tion of graduates from the naval academy
and appointments inthe- Navy, and for other
purposes.

The principal feature of'the. bill is aprovis-
. ion directing the Secretary of the Navy to
ppoint a commission composed of naval ofiia
cers, who are toreport— without delay to Can-
gross what navy yards or stations on the At-
lantic and Gulf coasts.it would be for the in-
terests of the Government to abblish. Also,
which navy yards should be retained and
permanently improved, together with a plan
for and theestimated cost of such permanent
improvements as will meet the present and
future needs ofthe Government in the con
struction and repairs of naval vessels.

It is stated upon the authority of a well
posted member of Congress that there is a
plan afoot to sell and abolish the Navy Yards
at Brooklyn and Boston and thus make the
yard at New London the principal one on
that coast. Bills for the sale of the Brook-
lyn and Boston yards have'recently been in-
troduced and it is believed that before long
New London will receive a boom.

‘ ’ ‘n'wsnnmo AND A runnnnn.

For the last few years, Washington has
been growing to bathe Matrimonial Mecca of
the nation, till during the present congres-
sional scssion,not only hundreds but thou-
sands of newly wedded pairs have visited
the capitol, on their nuptial tours. Last
week Wednesday, John ‘G. Gilmore, editor
of the “Wilson County Citizen," of Frede-
nia, Kansas, was married to a. most accom-
plished and lovely young lady of the west,
and with his 'bride came to Washington,
arriving here on Friday. The happy twain
have been visiting all the many places of
interest in and about the capitol. Last Mon-

sgurious bonds are
evoid of founda-

dny' they’spcnt at the House listening to the .

bewildering debate. Tuesday they were at
the White House, Wednesday a little pic-nic
party of friends (of whom your correspond.
out and family were to form a part) had been
.made up to visit Mount Vernon,Friday.
To-this excursion, the joyous bride had
locked ferward with enthusiastic anticipa-
tions ,of‘delight. Everything‘had been get.
ten in readiness to take the steamer down

the Potomac, but at six o’clock yesterday ,

morning, Representative Haskell and wife
were checked , by a summons to the bedside
of. the bride of.n week, by the startling
announcément that ushe was dying. The
terrible tidings proved but too true and ere
Mr. and Mrs. Haskell could reach the hotel,
the bright and joyous spirit of this bride of
earth had flown to realms celestial. Her
grief stricken husband was utterly dazed and
distraéted by‘ his unexpected and startling
bereavement, and last night shrouded in her

bridal robes,friendly, stranger hands bore her
remains to. the cars for the return of her
precious dust to the home and the mother

A she had so recently left', full of life and joy

and a hope for a long and blissful married
life. While there is in this case none of the
horror of the recent Hudson River Railroad
cremation of the bridal pair, it impresses us
as being more full of unutterable woe. .
non. DUDLEY o. mstLL.
Speaking of Representative Haskell, whose

reminds us to state that he was last week
again unanimously and by acclamation rc-
nominated by his appreciative constituency
of the 2d Kansas District. for re-elcction to
the next Congress. Mr. Haskell is a graduate
of old Yale of the class of ’65, and is one of

- the strong and growing statesmen of the

west. He is a nativc‘f Vermont and has

already been elected or three successive
Congressional terms. He has beennmost
able, vigilant and laborious member of the
House and his adopted state will honor her-
self and do the nation a service, by advanc-
ing Mr. Haskell to a seat in the U.' S. Senate
at the first opportunity.

‘ non. sons D. DEIREES.

While we write, Mr. Defrees, the ex-Gov-
ernment Printer fies, but a few blocks dis-
tant from us, in hopeless illness and impa-
tiently invoking death to come and relieve
him from his long, struggle with acute and
terrible pain. His life has been a most ex-
ceptional and interesting one. Probably no
'man living has been so intimate with all the
distinguished public men of the past and
present generation. He has been the per-
sonal friend and coveted adviser of Presi-
dents, Cabinet Ministers, Senators, members
and Governors of States. He was a most
intimate and devoted friend of President
Lincoln’s from the time of his entering the
House as an angular and singular member,

sels were more frequently sought or implicit-
ly relied upon by the Martyr President than
Mr.'Defrees. Withal, he was a most modest
and unassuming andjquiet gentleman. Proba-
bly no man living has exerted a more potent
influence in public affairs, without the pub-
lic’s knowledge. Mr. Thurlow Weed being
perhaps his nearest prototype. \
A BRIEF WILL.

The following will of a clerk in the Sur-
geon Generals office who died recently, was
probated here yesterday and is a commenda-
ble model of brevity and clearness.

' nun LAW BREAKERS.

Senator Windom’s committee of investiga-
tion of the Whiskey Ring, has developed one
very interesting bit of information as to the
use that is made of the large sums of money
raised by the distillers. The treasurer of
their fund admitted in his testimony that
they sent $1,500 into Kansas to be uted by
the local whiskey dealers there, to thwart
the practical operations of the Constitutional
Amendment forbidding the sale of intoxica-
ting liquors for beverages in that state.
Should nothing further be developed by Mr.
Windom‘s committee, this one fact, that the
distillers of the country are banded together
in a conspiracy and are paying out large
sums of money to defeat the deliberate enact-
ments of constitutions and of laws to repress
the sale and use of their manufactured
poisons fully vindicates the wisdom and
good policy of having created the Senator’s
Committee of Investigation.

PERSONALS.

Our ever genial ex-Gov. J ewell, chairman
of the Republican National Committee, came
down here the forepart of the. week on a
social and political mission, and was soon
the dispenser of most interesting news from
far off Oregon. Mr. J ewell’s telegrams gave
assurances that the Republican State ticket,
the Congressman and Legislature were all
certainly elected. This result ensures the
important victory of a Republican U. S.
Senator in place of Grover the present in-
cumbent, whose'nafie will always be associ-
ated with the infamy of Cronin’s nose, and
the attempted purchase of Oregon’s electo-
ral vote with money sent from Tilden
through the agency of Fred. Dimon’s New
York banking house. Should no Republi-
can losses occur this gain in Oregon will pass
the control of the present tied Senate into
Republican hands again. .

Scarcely had Governor J ewell's advent hero,
been announced, when the terrifying news
seems to have penetrated the frosty atmos-
phere of Lime Rock, and as did Samson of
old, when it was announced—“the Philis-
tines be upon thee”-——came hurrying hither

“mules” in his eye, and dread of damage

‘ and destruction to his democratic fences in

his mind. He remained with us nearly
twenty-four hours, or about as long as he
ever could be induced to tarry here“ at any
one time, and then as usual vanished like the
baseless fabric of a dream. The chief bur-
den of friend Barnum’s plaint is that he
can’t keep his party in Congress (and every-
where for that matter) from making “derned
fools of themselves." He has the political
sagacity not to dread Republican strength
half so much as Democratic folly, and he
certainly does have a sorry and trying time
of it trying to work up any sort of a victory
with such baulky and baulking “mules."

Gen. S. W. Kellogg, of Waterbury, left
us Thursday night for home. He has been
diligently laboring for the protection of the
knit-goods interests of the country,'which
have been'nenrly ruined by reason of a cleri-
cal error in transcribing the recent revision
of the U. S. statutes, in one of its sections
relating to the-Tariff on such manufactures.
The General will return next week to con-
tinue his labors before the Ways and Means
Committee and the House, nothing dauntcd
by his recent loss of his correction amend-
ment by three votes. ’

deemed it. wise and prudent to check this
wasteful outlay of the people's money, even
,though some of the smaller towns .of the
country should fail to be adorned by a state-
ly edifice built at the public cost.

' . Is it the Army Worm ?

The Messrs Hoyt’s of the New Canaan
Nursery are just now much troubled over
and are busy fighting an enemy that has and-
denly appeared on their premises. On Fri-
day the trees in one of their large Apple Or-
chard was suddenly attacked by a countless
myriad of worms, resembling the common
inch worm in appearance and movement, and
in twenty-four hours the orchard presented
the appearance of having been burnt over or
scorched by fire, every green leaf having been
destroyed. . On Monday toward noon, to their
consternation, a Peach Orchard, of young
trees was found to have another army of
younger and smaller worms of unnumberablo
millions at work on it and at present writing
the whole force of the Nursery is engaged in
picking them off by hand, the proprietors
hoping in that way to save their young and
thrifty trees. They do not know hardly how
to classify them or how to quickly extermin-
ate or get rid of them. No other orchard in
their vicinity had to their knowledge been
visited by this scourge. We hope the ram
Hoyt will conquer in the struggle and pre-
vent the worm from doing them more injury.

The Apple Orchard being on high ground
is easily distinguishable at New Canaan vil-
lage, and the unwonted scorched appearance
of it, in the midst of green groves, as seen by
the villagers, have sent them over there in
throngs to ascertain the meaning of it, and
the visitors have become much alarmed on
witnessing the devastation caused, fearing
that they may spread to adjoining fields and
farms. , -

 

Mr. Monson Hoyt has some very desirable
lots on Hoyt street, which he offered at low
priceqfor manufactories, hoping to induce
enterprising manufacturers to locate thereon
and thereby benefit the town. Last week he
sold a lot next to Mr. J. T. Cousins’ Shoe
Shop to a man from Hartford named Sim-
mons, who stated that he wanted to build n
Shirt notary thereon, but to Mr. Hoyt’s con-
sternation, after securing'the deed, he made
it over‘ we understand to Dennis Kellaher
who proposes erecting a dwelling thereon
instead of a shirt factory. Mr. Hoyt feels
quite put out at thus being over reached.

The. dead body of a man named Charles
Ritch, was found in a pond hole on Pat
Hanlo‘n’s lot, about a quarter of a mile from
the Poor House, on Friday morning last.
_He had been an inmate of the house, but was
in the habit of going off at integvals and
staying away, so that when he left there
some three months ago no enquiries were
made about him, the keeper supposing that

thought that he must have got into that hole
then and been there ever since. The coro-
ners jury rendered a verdict of accidental

drowning.

The Industrial School.

The Norwalk Industrial School, which is
composed of children iri'cspective of denomi-
nation, has been in progress several months
and promises good success. The children
are taught to sew, mend, make, and cut out
garments. Both teachers and pupils seem
thoroughly interested. It is in reality a
sewing school and sewing society combined.
The mission scholars make garments for
themselves, while those made by the others
are distributed to the poor and needy chil-
dren of the town. The school close: for the
summer with a pic-nic to be held next Satur-

day afternoon.

Track Laying on Extension.

The laying of track for the extension has
been delayed in consequence of. the strike
among the iron and steel men in Pennsylva-
nia, but will. probably commence today.
The rails have been ready for two weeks,
but thenew joint, which is a combination of
chain and fish joint, much superior to those
in general use, has been delayed in conse-
quence of the strike, but are now made and
on their way here. The» grading is nearly
finished, and will be out of the way of the
track layers as they proceed. It seems not
generally known, that the present grade of
the road, is what is known as “sub-grade,"
and that there is to be one foot of gravel
added fer ‘what is known as road-bod, and
that‘consequefitly the top of the rails will be
sixteen inches above the now grade, and
'the top of lira—mils. at, Qggquq_§tpeet, will
be on, or very near, the former gr’ade‘of‘ther
street at the crossing. ' thh the freight
house of the Consolidated road is moved
west of the present tracks of the two roads,
all of the sidings southwest of the depot will
be moved several feet to the east, and the
line of the extension from the depot to the
nursery property much improved, as well as
the access to the freight house, which is now
only reached by crossing two or three tracks.

to rest, but were seen by a woman who in-
duced them to leave that dangerous locality.
About 3 o’clock they were found up Cran-

ed. He informed their parents where they
were, and they were brought home.

A 'Geuysburgn Reminiscence.

The Rev. Wm. H. Thomas, who was-a
chaplain in one .of our regiments during the
war, made one of the speeches in the .Con-
gregational Churchon Sunday the 0th inst.,
the occasion being Memorial service for
Decoration Day. In closing he. addressed
himself more particularly to the Sunday
School children present, as they were to be
prominent in the decorating exercises of the
day. Among other incidents he gave a very
thrilling and touching one of Gottysburgh
which we do not remember to have ever seen
in print before. He said, in speaking of the
battle, that Little round-top Hill a prominent
hill with that local appellation was apparent-
ly the key of the position and against this
the rebels made their most desperate effort ;
in the afternoon he saw the rebels come out
of the woods massed in three solid lines,
which marched steadily across the interven-
ing space and with their wild rebel yell
rushed up the hill onto and over our lines,
in an irresistahle whve, then and there, he saw
the blue and the gray mixed—terribly mixed ;
it being a hand to hand fight ; it was the only
hand to hand fight he saw during the war;
officers and color bearers we 0 shot down,
and there did not appear to be any rallying
point left or any one to direct. And step-
ping forward the better to illustrate, be pro-
ceeded to show to the children the use of and
the vitality of colors to an army. Said he as
we stand here in a line facing the enemy
with the colors to our right, if the man at my
right is shot down, I immediately step over
his body and close up on the right towards
the colors, if the colors are at the left and the
man standing at my left hand is shot down I
immediately step over his body and close up
on the left towards the colors. If the colors
were advanced then the line immediately
advanced, if they went back then the line fell
back, &c. As we watched the conflict. all
seemed to be lost on our, side, all was con-
fusion and it appeared to be but a hand to
hand melee, when suddenly, like a ray of
light, there appeared a small, very small flag,
in fact nothing but an artillery guidon, which
elevated aloft, flashed right through the mm
on tothcfi-ont, it was but for a moment, but
that moment was enough, it was seen by our
men and with a cheer they charged to the
front in an irresistible and headlong run, and
the rebels were swept off and broke and ran;
the back bone of the rebellion was broken.
After the fight was over, he in company with
Gum-Smith, of New Hampshire, who had
also witnessed the incident, determined to
try and unravel the mystery, if pomible, of
the little flag. So they went over the field
following in the line they had seen that
take, when out on the very edge of the hill
they came upon a pile of dead bodies, and
removing one after another they came finally
to the dead body of a little ragged newsboy,
whose small fingers, through a hole in the
flag, was tightly clutched around thafiag-staf.
He had been inspired as it were at the right mo-
ment that this was what was needcd'to encour-
age and put new life into our gallant men and
acting on the inspiration he had clutched the
flagraised it aloft and rushed forward to an
instant death ; but the not had been undoubt-
edly the salvation to us of the day. And,
said the speaker, in closing, would you like
to see that flag ? so saying he put his hand
behind him and from one of his pockets
drew out the small battle-scarred banner and
reverently hung it over the pulpit. Nota
dry eye Was there in that vast audience and
a death-like stillness prevailed, until that
grand old Congrégational patriarch. the Rev.
S. B. S. Bissell, always equal to any emer-
gency, arose and requested that all would join
in singing, “Come to the sacred spot," if they

could see flu lines. .

 

Death of Alex. M. Lawrence.

Alex. M. Lawrence, Esq" died in New
York, on Sunday, at the advanced age of
eighty-one years. For many years Mr. Law.
rence was a well-known and prosperous New
York merchant, accumulating a large fortune
as an importer of foreign fruit. He owned
an elegant summer residence in Westport,on
the Sound, and was well known throughout
this part of the State. He was the father of
Mrs. Robert S. Craufurd, of this place. His
funeral will be attended to-day. .

It is related of him that he was the firs
merchant who sold Messrs. Park &. Tilford
the great merchants of to-day, a bill of goods
one hundred dollars on credit, giving them
their first start.

 

The Aesthetic Tableaux.

Friday evening last, in the Opera House,
the members of the Young Ladies’ Branch of
the Congregational church presented a series
of tableaux illustrating the aesthetic career
of the two Decorative Sisters, Dorothea and
DorindaI Miss Nellie Curtis preluding each
tableaux with a selection from the subject
poem, capitally rendered. Miss Nettie Betts
and Clara Marvin, as the aesthetic sisters in

Stella Smith and Sallie Betta, as xthe same
sisters in their ultimate development, were
too utterly utter for utterance. The artist,
Mr. Charles Woodbury, was decidedly

as the aged parents, were intensively intense
in their efforts to attain at least the low water
mark of aestheticism ; and the gardener, Mi
Arthur Earle, gardened as thbugh he was

gardener born. ' For the correctnesss of the
accessories great credit is due to the taste of
Mrs. White, and the music, as rendered by
Miss Sadie Miller, evoked constant and
hearty applause. It is to be hoped that the
young ladies will be encouraged to repeat
entertainments Of the kind for the delectation
of the much larger number of spectators who
would be attracted by their initial success.
