z ' Norwalk Gazette. 20, 1882. Tuesday,Juue Editorial Letter. WASHINGTON, D. C., J une 1'7, 1882. Dunn Gsznrrn :— The House has made reasonable progress with the Appropriation Bills, and is now resolutely engrossed upon the River and Harbor. In' the Senate, the Bonded Whisky, the Japanese Indemnity and- sundry public and private bills of lesser importance have engaged the full attention of the solons of the north end of the Capitol. The House has and several - evening sessions confined strictly to the Pension bills, which by reason of some infoimality o: l'lll(li’lCl‘, have been broughtlicforc C ingress for special acts of relief, because they could not be acted upon under the general pension laws of the pet.- sion oilier. ‘ an CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY. As soon as the River and Harbor bill shall have been disposed oil the House, according to present arrangement, will take up the bill to authorize the construction on the square directly east of the Capitol grounds of a fire proof building for the accommodation of the Congressional library. The bill, which has been agreed upon by the Joint Library Com- mittee, will be in charge of Representative. Rice of Massachusetts: - In the Senate it will be in charge of Chairman Morrill and strongly supported on the democratic side by Senator Voorhces. The millions of rare and other books, maps ‘nnd documents, now tumbled about upon the floors and in the basement of the old Library is simply disgraceful. The loca tion of the new Library Building, is the best that possibly could be found, all things considered, and Senators Morreli and Voor- bees are deserving of especial credit for the determined manner they have fought for this site northeast of the Capital park. No MORE GOVERNMENT names. _ The members of the Senate and House Committees on Public B uildings and Grounds at a joint meeting yesterday morning,decided to report adversely on a proposition to pur- chase the private dwelling on Tenth street, Washington, to which President Lincoln was removed after the assassination in Ford’s theatre, directly opposite, and in which he died. ' This old brick tenement house was bought up by a thrifty Senator named Louis Sehady for $3,700 and he has steadily pestcrcd Congress to purchase his property for the moderate sum of $25,000—although not es- timated worth more than $5,000 at the out- side. nomxa'rxoxs BY run PRESIDENT. The President sent the following no'mina- tions to the Senate yesterday: To be members of the Tariff commission—— John L. Hayes, of Massachusetts, chairman ; Henry W. Oliver, J r., of Pennsylvania ; Aus- tin M. Garland, of Illinois; Jacob Ambler, of Ohio; Robert P. Porter,of Districtzof Colum- bia; John W. H. Underwood, of Georgia; Duncan F..Kenner of Louisiana; Alexander . R. Boteler, of West Virginia; William H. Mc Mahon, of New York. The President sent to the Senate yesterday the names of the five gentlemen who are to constitute the Utah commission as follows ; To be members of the Board of Registra- tion and Election in the Territory of Utah-— Alexander Ramsey, of Minnesota; Algernon S. Paddock, of Nebraska; G. F. Godfrey, of Iowa ; Ambrose B. Carleton, of Indiana ; Sames R. Pettigrcw, 'of Arkansas. The Woman Suffragists had proposed the name of St. Louis’ able, witty and pretty lawyer, Miss Phoebe Cornsins, for a place on this commission but it is said the President, widower though he be, has sternly resolved to appoint no more women to office, if he . can help it, and he probably can. The President has appointed the following Government Directors of the Union Pacific Railway Company: Robert H. Baker, of Wisconsin; George Haven, of New York; George E. Spencer, of Alabama; Watson Parrish, of Nebraska, and Isaac H. Bromley, of Connecticut. Connecticut has had a rep- resentative on this commission almost contin- uously ever since its creation. Dr. 'White, of New Haven, served from its beginning to * his decease. He was followed by Hon. Dan. Chadwick, now our able and popular U. S. District Attorney, and now the noted humor- ous journalist, “Ike Bromley” wins the prize. We opine if things don’t go straight on the “U. P.” somebody will stand a narrow chance of getting scourged with “Brom’s” sarcastic pen. The President sent the following nomina- tions to the Senate Thursday : . Postmasters.——George N. Brigham, Rock- ville, Conn; Charles Olmstead, Norwalk, Conn; Theo. J. Dnskam, Stamford, Conn. . Our own and Stamford’s popular post; masters, were first commissioned by Presi— dent Abraham Lincoln soon after his first inauguration, and they have both served continuously ever Since to the satisfaction of the entire public and the special acceptance of the Post Office Department here. ANOTHER NORWALK nor. The Ilousc Committee on War Claims yes- terday decided to recommend to the House that the claim of William 13. Issues Se 00., successors in interest of certain Richmond banks for the restoration of $100,000 in coin taken by United States officers in August, 1865, be referred to the Court of Claims for adjudication. , Mr, Issues, as is well known to our older readers, is a native of Norwalk, a son of Benj. Isaacs, deceased, and brother of the present Mrs. Samuel Lynes. For many years prior to and during the late war, Mr. Isaacs was a private banker in Richmond, and at the fall of the confederaey and the abdica- tion of the city Mr. Isaac's bank was raided and the coin captured and confiscated by the Union forces. The claim seems one of those just and equitable ones that ought at least to be judicially considered in the Court of Claims. , Pnnsoxnrs. Senator Henry B. Anthony, editor in chief of the Providence Jouer and long since denominated "the uestor of the U. S. Sen- ate,” received his fifth consecutive election from the Rhode Island Legislature the pres- ent week. Should be live to the end _of his newly elected term (for which there is every reason to hope and expect) he will have, served thirty years in the Senate and become the compeer in service of Thomas Benton, who was the only Senator ever continuing so long in the Senate. Wm. R. King, of Ala- bama, was elected a fifth time, but resigned before the completion of his term. The President and other friends thoughtfully sent the editor Senator great banks and baskets of flowers, while personal congratu- lations were showered upon him on every hand—his election and continuance in the body giving joy and delight to fill his asso- ciates and the Senate employees, from Vice President to smallest page. . The news was telegraphed here late Thurs- day night that err-Governor Dennison of Ohio died at Columbus, 0., in the sixty-seventh year of his age. He was one of the founders of the republican party in 1856 and was a premiucnt supporter of Mr. Lincoln in 1800. In that year'he was elected governor of Ohio and won a national reputation as the “war governor" of Ohio. He was president of the Union national convention at Baltimore, June 7, 1804, which rcnominated President Lincoln. In October of that year before President Lincoln’s first term expired, he was called to the cabinet to succeed Montgomery Blair as post-master general. He served several years as one of the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, and made many warm friends by his unswerving loyalty and integrity. His last public appearance was at the Chicago convention of 1880, where as a representative of the ,Ohio delegation, after General Garfield's nomination, he presented the name. of General Chester A. Arthur to the convention as a candidate for the vice presidential nomination. The P. 0. Depart- ent is draped and closed to-day in honor of Frsnr,—A local paper says a party con. sisting of Senators Vest, Hampton and Plait, and Col. Baxter, which went up to the Wood-4 moat Club estate last week, had no sport on good luck,but Senator Hampton was th , champion of the party. His catch for the. day amounted to forty-three fine black bass. one of which weighed five pounds. Fly~ fishermen will be glad to hear that these were all taken with the fiy,—the gallant Senator declining to use any other device. It is probable that our Senator could have had just as good luck, or at least have made up just as good a “fish story,” as the redonbta- ble South Carolinian, but being a New Eng- lander, it was incumbent upon him to bee little more “conservative," and restrained in narrating his share of the results of the ex pedition. ' Senator Plait accompanied Mrs. Plait to Connecticut on Thursday and will return Monday. Mrs. l’latt will remain at their house in Mcrideu until the Senate's ‘ adjourn- ment, when both go to their cottage in the Adirondacks for the summer. Hon. S. W. Kellogg is again here hanging like a bull-dog to the knit goods tariff meas- urc. . u ' Editor Ben. Pardee of the Palladium was here the fore part of the wbck. Mrs. Representative Buck has returned home to Conn. Representative Miles is back from a flying visit to his old home in Litchficld County, and is sharply looking after his share in the River and Harbor Bill. ’ As Ever, 5...: ' Was it a Sea Serpent ? One of the citizens of South Norwalk, while on an ofiicial visit to “ Huckleberry Hills," a few days since, saw not far from the “inland sea.” of that point; an immense serpent, color black, somewhere between ten and twenty feet in length with size of body corresponding with its length. The citizen not being prepared for a battle cdcluded to let the serpent pursue its winding way un- molested. It is to be hoped that an armed force will soon capture this what is it? for we very much fear that there will be a corner in the huckleberry market hereabout, unless this monster is made way with. Our citizens were somewhat startled on Tuesday morning last, by the sudden ap- pearance, no alarm .being sounded, of our Fire Department,who rushed off down West Avenue. Enquiry;developed that Miss Kent living on Berkeley sIreet had been using a leaky oil stove, and the oil having taken fire she attempted to put the fire out by throw- .ing a blanket over it ;' not succeeding she screamed, and Judge Perry. stepping in and seeing the cause of the trouble took up stove and blanket, and carried them into the yard, seeing which, and thinking the house was on fire a grocer’s clerk who was driving by, whipped up his horse and _rushed up to .the Main street engine house and started the ap- partus off to savethe house. Fortunately their services was not needed, as the fire did not spread owing to the promptness of J udgc Perry. B. M Base Ball. On Friday afternoon lastthe first nine of Mr. Johnston’s School went to Stamford to play the first nine of the Stamford Business ' College. Half of the latter nine proved to be outsiders and strong players. Neverthe- less the Norwalk boys “whitewashed" oppo- nents for the first five innings, the score then standing 17 to 0. During the rest of the game some of the Stamfords rather got hold of Warren’s pitching and succeeded in mak- ing 7 runs, the game ending 33 to 7 in favor of Norwalk. The Norwalk pitcher and catcher did most of the playing that was done in the game. The position of umpire was sat- isfactorily filled by Mr. Louis Betts. The Phoenix boys came to grief on Sat— urday last. Their base ball nine went to Winnipnnk to play a nine there and were left by a score of 18 for Winnipauk and 1 for Phoenix. =5 ANOTHER Rim Murmurs—John Kirbin, a man of forty, shot James Kenevan, a man of twenty-three, at New Britain on Saturday night; both were under theinfiuence of liq- 1101'. -—___._..___—-§—- The Malley trial commenced again on Tuesdfl last, and more evidence on their behalf submitted, but the court was again adjourned on Friday morning over“, to Tues- day morning by reason of the death of a daughter of one of the jurors. The Court will probably have to adjourn again, as one of the jurors has lost his father in law, and his funeral will be attended on Wednesday. The Danbury Patience Company Was greeted with a good house by our people on. Monday evening week, and hope to hear from them again. All did their parts well, but Miss Carrie Allen as Patience, the Milk Maid, seems to have won especial commend- ation for her remarkably fine singing and acting. The whole concert was a decided SUCCCSS. . . M Mr. J. M. Potter and his family were de- lighted with their pleasant trip to the Pacific Coast with the Jenkins party, but hardly think they would care to locate out there permanently; they prefer old Norwalk. They meta number of pleasant friends, at different points, formerly from Norwalk or vicinity, who appeared much pleased to meet people from this way. They had quite a varied experience during the trip, one car thrown from track and several injured there- by; snow in the Mariposa valley so that they could not do the big trees as thoroughly as they wished; and finally they were oblig- ed to leave the party at San Francisco by reason of the measles. Messrs. Adams & Brothers are now build- in‘gan addition to their hat manufactory by adding another story to the boiler‘housc, coloring shop, etc., making it four stories high. We are glad to note this evidence of success. By the way, Mr. G. P. Adams the senior member of the firm is the second- oldest hat manufacturer in town,—Mr. Geo. Benedict being the oldest. Mr. Adams started over thirty years ago in company with Mr. Elisha Comstock of New Canaan. They commenced business in the old :stp of Mallory St Hanford, nearly opposite the 1st M. E. Church, where A. J. Crofut’s barn now stands; from therethoy removed in 1853 to Deacon Beard's old shop," present location of Crofut do Knapp’s shop. Is it Nutritious ‘2 A friend who had been over the water, says he drank a glass of iced hydrant water, in a near by city last week, which tasted very much like some soup, he ate in one of coast provinces of France; which had ever so long a name, and which he was informed was a combination of vegetables and fish ; and he desires to know if the hydrant water is not just as nutritious as the French potage? We can only refer the question to some one eapabiepf making a chemical anal- ysis. m Tun ,BELL'S ISLAND Burner, is again in limbo, and the beauties of the laws delays, 'are once more in the ascendant, made so, by an appeal taken out by the shipping interest of Farm Creek, a creek that one of our friends at Five Mile .River, (not the Selectman) says, is so shallow, that flat fish, when they go up the creek to feed,alwnys carry a tidal alim- uac in their pocket, so as not to be stranded in the mud, when the tide begins to fall. The additional ,‘ distance now required to be trav- elled by persons from Norwalk and South Norwalk, to reach the Island in consequence of state of the bridge, is one mile and on sixth, and much of the road almost impassable. Abram Pelstein, a peddler who has made his headquarters for some time' past at E. Gusowski's store, lit out early (4 o'clock) Monday morning, taking with him a portion of Mr. Gusowski’s stock. In answer to a question of the police he said his horse was a poor old one and he wanted to get nearly start, before the heat of the day set in. _ . Bell’sislaud. 0n arecent visit to this Island .we were surprised to see how much the new owners have improved the grounds, 'by grading, Saturday. All the gentlemen named 1mbgrubbing, opening of new drives and the ad- dition to the old buildings, and the erection of new ones. The addition to the former resi- dence of Mr. Bell is completed and the house will be in readiness for boarders by the first of July., Four handsome cottages have al- ready been built, and more in contemplation iii the near future. Bathing houses have been created on the cast beach of the Island which is peculiarly favorable for'safe bathing for women and children, owing to the very gradual slope of the beach. As there is am- ple shade on the Island parties who visit there will be fully compensated for their time in such visit. While no arrangement is con- templated for large excursion parties, small parties will be furnished with refreshments including oysters and clam roasts etc., but no spirituous liquors will be sold on the Island. When the bridge is rebuilt across the creek from the main to the Island, we predict that very many of our citizens will make this their favorite summer drive. m The Extension. . The grading on ,the extension with the ‘ exception of a little surfacing is finished to the Wilson's farm house, where about ten days work are required to complete the line to sub grade. _(known as caps) on, and most of the piles are driven for the long wharf. A handsome passenger and freight depot is to be erected on the pier, with a broad veranda on three sides of the passenger station, which will be provided with seats for parties going to the point by train, who do not care for a more extended trip. After many delays the fish plate fastenings for the rails have arrived, and the promised Fourth of July ride to the point is now pretty well assured, m Personals.

Letters from the People. Snmomu’s Osman, Nonwarx, CONN.. June 16th, 1882. EDI'rons Gaza-mu:— Will you kindly insert in your next edition a few words relating to an arfiele by E. F. Rile, Esq., in the. Sentinel of the 14th.inst. In regard to the personal matters I have nothing to say, for these human hyflas who fatten on the filth and corruption of the grave cannot be expected to spare the living'when it answers their purpose to make a point. But I am compelled to say that the respecta- ble gentlemen of Five Mile River who .are honestly opposed to the reconstruction of Bell’s Island Bridge, are very unfortunate in their selection of a mouth-piece, and a cause that requires such a support must be misera- bly desperate.

Tradition tells us that once upon a time, a lady was riding through South Wilton on horse back, when suddenly she alighted with her wand of willow in hand, and giv- ing it one plunge into our mother earth, she said perehance this may grow to be a tree. Her prediction has been fulfilled. ‘ For more 'thenacentury, this wand of willow has continued to thrive amid sunshines and stones, while no rude hand has dared to molest, and even now it is putting forth its tender boughs of green. * Hymcneai. _ A few invited guests met on Wednesday. last, to witness the marriage of J. Clarence Policy of Milford, to Lillie H. J immerson of Wilton. After receiving congratulations, the bride and groom with the guests, sat down to a well spread table. The house was taste- fully decorated with fiowers. The bridal party left on the 5 p. in. train for their new home in Milford._ with the Well wishes of numerous friends. H. Readman Bros. have just completed a lot of large views for Mr. J. Knox Polk, con- sisting of the house and grounds and several horses. The pictures are 14x17 in size and are perfect specimens of the photograpic art, being made with the instantaneous plates; the exposure is so short as to prevent any movement of the animals spoiling the pic ture. This firm have been using these plates now for some months for both out and indoor work, especially for children, and have scored a victory every time, as the exposure is less than a second. —____-_—_== The J one number of Woodward’s Musical monthly published by Willis Woodward do 00., contains the “Girofie-Girofia" Lanciers, “Mignon,” “The Ivy Green,” “Clochette,” “Little Bc-Peep,” and the “The King of France,” a good range of music. 0 Ladies, and indeed all persons who are charitably inclined, but particularly ladies —for this work was instituted and has been carried on mainly by them—will be interest- ed ,in Ms. E.

BY OUR LOCAL REPOM ' A very important but amicable city meet-- ing was held on Wednesday evening last. A tax of 53» mills was laid, and a committee ap- pointed ou the subject of a Hose House, city hall and etc. Not a word was said about the new codified, modified and amended charter. the festival of the Old Well Hook and Lad- der Co. was awarded to Putnam Hose 00., of this city. ; A fire was discovered Saturday a. m. on the roof of a wooden house, opposite the Lock Shop which caused no little excitement for a time. Many of the firemen were on hand before the alarm bell was rung, and with books and ladders and huckleberry water, subdued the flames. It is supposed a spark from a locomotive caused the fire. Our efficient bevy of assistant post- masters now have sufilcient room for dumb bell exercises, or any other labor connected with the office. The opening of the Horse racing at the Fair Grounds, and the excursion of. the Re- form Association, occur on the same day, Wednesday. Some of our city lamps are very uneasy, and apparently dissatisfied with their situa- tion. Two or three of them were on a bust last week, damaging only themselves. How is this? Have not the Council by authority of our new dignified charter, all the authority they need for the abatement of nuisances ? This was one of the. arguments for an amended charter A petition has been sent to President Watrous to abate nuisances. Now come Mr. Watrous, please do it for us.
