Editorial Letter.
WASHINGTON, D. 0., June 24, 1882.
DEAR Gazxrrn :—
The Senate has occupied most of the week
in considering the bill to enable National
Banks to continue their corporate existence.
Many amendments have been offered, but
Thursday they were all voted down and the
original bill was passed. ‘ .
The Senate then took up the House Bill to
Cfitl‘llilsll :i uniform system of Bankruptcy to
which an ul'lll'lldllll-lli was ol‘i‘elexi by Senator
Hour and cxliaustiVely discussed. No coll-
clusiuu having been reached upon the mat-
tcr yesterday, the la: lizlte adjourned: and the
iii Went chl‘ in Monday.
'i‘lll: liouse has devoted lli‘. time to iii:-
CilrSinilS of various lilattei's, the Sundry Civil
Appropriation hill, and the Internal Revenue
bill being among the more important. .
On Thursday a Democratic caucus was
held relative to the action of the party upon
the latter measure and it was decided to
favor the abolishmeut of the tax on whisky
and tobac'bo. The efforts of the average
Democratic Congressman to lower the price
on these, their two main articles of food, are
amusing to say the least. Democracy and
free whisky seem to go hand in hand, each
struggling for the supremacy, with the odds
strongly in favor of the whisky.
LEGISLATIVE AND DEPARTMENTAL DOINGS.
Mr. Ferry introduced a bill in the Senate
yesterday, providing for the return of dea
letters to thcwriters thereof. ‘
Owing to the extremely hot weather here
the heads of the various Departments have
issued an order directing that their respective
Departments be closed at 3 p. in. during the
months of July, August and September.
Secretary Folger has written a letter to
coal of the members of the Tariff commission
requesting them to assemble in this city on
the 0th of July for the purpose of organiza-
tion. Thei_r commissions have been signed
by the President.
In the House Monday a bill was passed
authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury
until July 1, 1834, to receive trade dollars
upon presentation and give in exchange for
them standard silver dollars. This will do
away with the absurd reduction made by
merchants receiving the trade dollars.
lMMiGRATiON naconaran.
The House on Monday passed the bill to
regulate immigration. It provides that there
shall be levied, collected and paid a duty of
fifty cents for each and every passenger not
a citizen of the United States, who shall
come by vessel from a foreign port to any
port within the United States, the proceeds,
of which funds are by the Government; to be
devoted to the relief of deserving immigrants.
It further provides that all foreign paupers,
convicts, or accused persons of other than
political offenses or persons suffering from
mental alienation, who are a public charge on
their arrival, shall be sent back by the United
States to the nutiousto which they belong
and whence they came. The law is to take
effect immediately. .
am. sxrnonx coxenA'rnna'rnn.
Tuesday, ir. Davis, President pro tem. of
the Senate, in presenting the credentials of
Henry B. Anthony’s re-election from Rhoda
Island made ‘ a happy little congratulatory
speech. He said: “Senators, for a second
time in the history of the government, a
member of this body has been chosen .for a
fifth consecutive term.
occasion like this may well claim at our
hands more than a passing notice. I am sure
that the honored associates of the distinguish-
ed Senator, who has thus been honored, will
unite with me in expressing the hope that
Mr. Anthony, who has so long and so accep-
tably filled this great trust, will be blessed
by Providence with health and happiness for,
his remaining years.” The credentials were
then read and filed.
run ADJOURNMENT qunsriox.
A number of leading republicans, held a
conference yesterday to consider the ques-
tion .of adjournment sine die. It was
decided that the business of the House could
be disposed of by the 10th of July, and that
the House could be ready to adjourn on that
day, if it is fixed upon. A resolution pass.
ed the House to-day, for adjournment July
10th.
‘ The prevailing opinion in the Senate seems
to be that Congress "will not be ready to
adjourn before the middle or latter part of
July. Several members of the Senate oom-
mittce on appropriations said yesterday that
the 20th or 25th of J uly'would probably be
as soon as adjournment could be reached.
But the heat will determine the time of ad-
journment more than will the state of the
public business.
A STRIKE AT run VITALS or nnnoonaor.
A Democratic orator once dsclsimcd that
the direct tax on whisky inaugurated by the
Republicans was “a strike at the vitals, of the.
democratic party.” In this state of mind,
some forty democratic members of the House
met in caucus to devise ways and means
whereby the tax on those democratic special-
ties tobacco, beer and whiskey, might be cut
down and oil. An agreement was substan
stantialiy reached to vote in favor of taking
off the tax on tobacco, cigars, fermented
liQuors and also the special license tax. It
was also decided that in case the proposed
amendments to the bill are rejected s. mo.
tion should be offered to recommit the bill
to the Committee on Ways and Means with
instructions to report a bill abolishing all
internal revenue taxes except those upon
whisky and whisky dealers, and to reduce
the whisky tax to 50 cents on the gallon.
NATIONAL BANK BILL.
The bill to extend the charters of national
‘banks, as it passed the Senate Thursday, was
amended in several important respects, and
therefore must go back to the House for
action upon these amendments. It provides
that any national bank may, within two
years of the expiration of its corporate .
existence, with the consent of the Controller,
extendits succession for twenty years or
less; but the application for extension of
charter must be authorized by holders of not
less" than two-thirds of the stock. Any
shareholder not desiring to extend shall re-
ceive the value of his shares. The circula-
tion of the bank .is to be retired, but it can
be replaced by new issues. The bill provides
for the retiring of circulation on 5 increase,
with restrictions as to the issue per
' month.
The Sherman funding bill, which passed
the Senate some months ago but has never
been considered in the House, was adopted
as an amendment to the bill. it authorizes
the national banks to deposit in the Treasury
35 per cent. bonds, in lieu of which they
will receive 3 per cents, to be redeemed at
the pleasure of the government. The bill
also authorizes the issue of gold certificates
by the Treasury, in return for deposits of
gold, in sums of not less than $20. TheBeck
bill to forbid the unlawful certification of
bank checks by the banks to favorites, .
without funds on deposit, to cover them,
forbids the certification of a check. by a na-
tional bonk,unless the party for whom it is
certified has money to the full amount of the
check on deposit.
The bill also provides for the retirement of
banks not wishing an extension of charter.
It is Quite likely that the three per cent.
funding amendment will meet with consid-
erable opposition in the House, and differ-
ences arising between the two houses will
probably have to be adjusted in conference,
if the'bill is‘to get through at this sessi0n,
at all, of which there is doubt expressed al-
though the probabilities are that it will be-
come a law. '
GUiTsAU WILL HANG. ,
Miss Chevaillier, of Boston, secretary of
the National Society for the Protection of
the Insane, accompanied by Dr. M. Beard,
of New York; Dr. Golding, superintendent
of St. Elizabeth Hospital, and Rev. Dr.
Hicks, Guitcau’s spiritual adviser, called
upon the President Thursday. The visit
I
An exceptional .
was for the purpose of inducing the Presi-
dent to grant a respite in the case of Guiteau
until a commission can make a thorough bx-
aminaiion of Guitcnu to test his sanity.
They brought petitions from New York,
Boston and elsewhere, signed by many medi-
cal experts,'who are persuaded of the pro-
priety of such a commission. The matter
was reported to the Attorney General and by
him brought before yesterday’s cabinet meet-
ing, when it was decided that no new facts
were apparent or questions raised that had
not been exhaustingly considered at the trial,
and no reasons were apparent that would
justify the President in granting a reprieve
and so the application was denied. The
President and cabinet were fully aware that
public opinion has almost universally de-
cided against any interference with the law’s
demand for the nssussin’s execution. This
feeling does not come iii any heated desire
for vengeance upon the pitiable much, but
is the calm judgment of the country based
upon a full knowledge of alllthe circumstan-
ces surrounding his whole erratic and crimi-
nal life. This eleventh hour appeal for a
postponement of his execution is begotten
more in a maudliu sentimentality, than a love
of justice, which can only be satisfied in the
convicted murderer’s execution. His keep-
ers one and all affirm that no prisoner over
in their keeping gave surer evidences of
entire mental responsibility. He is abnor-
mally tenacious and hopeful of life, but the
pretence of indifference as to his fate, begins
to wear away, and the last few days he has
begun to wear a worried and‘ haggard look.
His scaffold is in readiness and next Friday
at n'oon he will cxpiate his terrible crime in
the jail yard. As Ever, B.
. ' ‘ Dividends.
.Our Borough National Banks all announce
their regular July dividends—items that will
be of great interest to the stockholders and
as agreeable to take as strawberries and
cream. These dividends are sufiicient evi-,
dance to the fortunate holders of stock that
the Banks are thriving. ‘
w
Temperance Meetings To-Duy.
Tuesday, June 27, having been appointed
by the Legislature of Iowa as the day when
the question of the amendment of the Con-
stitution, forever prohibiting the manufacture
and sale of alcholic liquors, shall be submit-
ted to the people of that state, the National
Women's Christian Temperance Union there-
fore ask, that every local Union in each
State observe that day as a day of prayer for
the triumph of the cause in that State.
In compliance with the above, there will
be a prayer meeting held in the Ladies Room
(Lockwood Hall) on Tuesday at 3 o’clock,
p. m. to which all who are interested in the
"cause are earnestly invited.
There will also be a Temperance meeting
held in the evening at 7:45 o’clock, at. the
rooms of the Reform Association on Water
st. Several members of the South Norwalk
association will be present and address the
meeting. All are cordially invited to attend.
Wilson Point Extension.
Track laying on the extension has resulted
in the laying of about two-fifths of the line
for the week past, and there is promise that
the present week will show a much better
result, as it is hoped that the track layers
may be kept at their work, by having the
ties and rails delivered to them, instead of
having to leave their work to load them from
the yard. The grading at the Wilson farm
cut is well in hand, and some active work
and good results are predicted for this week.
The pier will be in readiness for the track by
the time they reach there, and it will not be
surprising if some of our readers who have
predicted August, September and even as
late as October, the time when such an event
was to happen, were to wake up next week
and find that during their slumber, some-
thing had happened that would disqualify
them from assuming the role of prophets,
unless of the kind which are recorded in a
certain book as false prophets. A few days
only will be requi after the main track
reaches the point, to put in sidings and turn-
table, when regular trains will be run to the
steamboat and frequent short trains between
Norwalk and South Norwalk and the Point.
Schools to be Discontinued.
The public will regret to learn that the
Misses Brockwsy have decided‘) discon-
tinue their school for girls and young ladies.
For years past this school has been one of
the most prominent private educational in-
stitutions in this vicinity, tho Misses Brock-
way enjoying the confidence and esteem of
the public to an unusual degree,
Prof. Johston has also decided to close the
female department of his Latin School.

Almost everybody in town is the proud
owner of one or more new straw hats; proud
because he can afford it and proud because
he is patronizing and encouraging home in-
dustry as the hats are all of Norwalk manu-
fpeture. The occasion of it all was that the
manufacturing season being over, Comatoclr
Bros. bought the whole of Messrs. Benny’s
lot of sample hats and immediately put them
on sale at their store at much less than half
the usual price; as a consequence they had
a great rush‘ and almost everybody sports I
new and clean straw.

Brookside Park. ,
The Reform Association of Danbury,'has
engaged Brooksido Park for their pic-nic on
the Fourth of July, and it is expected that
an immense number will be present. As the
parkis now at its best, they cannot. help
enjoying themselves where every thing is so
admirably arranged for the comfort and
convenience of visitors. ‘
We hear that this park is already engaged
for quite a number of excursion parties in-
cluding one or more that will come to Wil-
son's Point by steamer and be taken thence
by cars to the park, thus giving the excur-
sionists a sail on the Sound, and five or six
hours at the park: It isexpccted that such
parties will both come from the east and _
west, and we certainly think it a great im-'
provement both as regards comfort and
safety, compared with the steamboat excur-
sions to various resorts at the sea shores of
Long Island or New Jersey, as the time can
be so arranged, th the whole excursion
can be made by light, and in case of
sudden storm, the largegt parties can be safe-
ly sheltered at the park pavilion.

. Roton Point, or “the Brighton of the
East,"is rapidly looming up this season; being
so easy of access and delightfully situated
tends to make it a. favorite resort. On
Thursday last about a thousand from the
Greenpoint M. E. Church came up on the,
Americus with a Brass Band. On Friday
two private schools from Stamford and the ’
High School Room from our Over River
District School enjoyed the afternoon and
evening there, and on Saturday the Americus
brought up about 800 from the Trinity Bap-
tist Church and Sunday School of New
York.

The closing exercises at the Center Dis-
trict was attended by many patrons of the
school, on Friday aftefnoon last. The ex-
ercises consisting of speaking, essays, sing-
ing, orations, ctc., were quite pleasant and
entertaining. At the close ‘of -the school
programme the class of Miss,Alice Fitch en-
tered a large carryall and rode over to
Compo Beach, where they enjoyed very
pleasantly the rare sea breeze usually ob-
tained there. They returned in the evening
well pleased with their excursion.
The closing exercises at Willistob Semi-
nary, Easthampton, Mass, take place this
week. A Reception of the Senior class was
given by President Fairbanks, at his resi-
dence,1ast evening. The Seminary is meet-
ing with better success than ever before, and
its prospects for the future are brilliant.

police force is now on duty as policeman at

OBITUARY.
Rey. Moses mu.’
Our community was shocked on Wednes-
day afternoon last,by the announcement that
Dr. Moses Hill had been stricken down by-
fipoplexy and was lying at his residence in a
dying condition. It was hard to realize it
as many had seen him at the village at noon
looking and appearing as well as usual. But
the report was true, and our venerable and
well-respected fellow-citizen passed away on
Thursday night to his final rest.
Mr. Hill has resided among us for nearly
or quite thirty years, for most of that
period being one of ,our .active busi-
business men; commencing in the lumber
business, with which lie was connected many
years and afterwards lit: President of the
Norwalk Mills. He was slam—having
earlier in lifebeen ll preacher and presiding ‘
elder in the Church in Mniner—quitc promi-
iliellt l'il’Olll‘ Methodist circles here, and so
becalrie very widely and generally known
anl’universally respected by all who made
his acquaintance. He was of a mild. genial
temperate disposition, alive to all the live
moral issues of the day, ever ready to de-
fend tbc right and champion the cause of
religion and protect the innocent. His re-
moval from our midst will be felt and de-
plored. His good works and'patient ser-
vices here on earth Will ensure his reward in
the great hereafter.
From some personal reminiscences written
by himself and read by the Rev. W. H.
Thomas, at the funeral on Monday, we learn
that Mr. Hill was born in deding, Conn.,
Oct. 7, 1804 he was the youngést but one of
the family, there being four sons and one
daughter. He lived and worked on the farm
until he was 15 years of age, then he joined
the Church and leaving the farm‘ his health
being delicate and the farm labor being to~
severe for him he taught school for about
seven years: In 1822 he commenced work
in the Ministry at Hallowell, Me., and
preached in numerous other places, through
[the State and w ad.residing elder, first
of the St. Croix rict, then of the Bangor
District.‘ After many years of active duty
as a Methodist minister he was finally com-
pelled by ill health to leave the ministry,
and he then came and located in Norwalk,
becoming one of our active business men.
The funeral was largely attended yesterday
afternoon, the services being held in the 2nd
M. E. Church. After an anthem by the
choir and reading of the scriptures by a
venerable preacher, Rev. Mr. Thomas de-
livered the» sermon, and was followed by
Revs. C. S. Wing and C. S. Williams, for-
mer pastors, in suitable remarks. Rev. Dr.
Scudder and another minister whose name
we did not learn. also made appropriate re-
marks. Revs. Mead and Osborn also partic-
ipated in' the services. After prayer by the
pastor the exercises closed with “Nearer My
God to-Thee” by the male quartette of the
church and the remains were conveyed to the
cemetery for burial.
Mrs. Asa. B. Woodward.
Judge A .. Woodward was bereaved on
Saturday mo ing by the death of his esti-
mable wife. She was a native of 'Norwalk,
a daughter of Mr. T. C. IIanford, deceased,
a member of the First Congregational Church
and an exemplary christian. She had been
an invalid for some time and her death,
although sudden was not unexpected. She
wash kind, friendly neighbor, a fond and
devoted mother, a pure and noble wife, and
leaves her husband and family of children to
sadly and deeply mourn her loss, while yet
in the prime of womanhood. The afflicted
family will have the sym ies of this entire
community. '
James Passion.
On Sunday, James Paxton died at his home,
in the 60th year of his age. He was a
Scotehmau by birth, and was brought up to
the dry goods business in Glasgow. After
coming to this country he engaged in the
same business in Georgia, and subsequently
on Broadway, New York. He come to this
place some twelve or fourteen years since
and bought a farm in the Broad River dis-
trict, on which he has resided with his
family. He has always had the reputation
of being a good citizen, a good neighbor and
genial gentleman. He leaves a wife, three
daughters and two sons to mourn his death.
His remains will be taken to Greenwood.
Dr. Fred. Bissell, son of Rev. S. B. S.
Bissell, who has been~very dangerously sick
with scarlet fever combined with rheuma-
tism, at the residence of C. C. Belts, rallied
a little last week, and hopes were entertained
of his rgovery. Yesterday " morning, how-
ever, his condition was not favorable, and
as we go to press it is deemed critical.
m
This week Rev. Dr. Joseph Anderson of
Waterbury, takes his family tolhis summer
residence at Woodmount, on the Sound, for
the summer. The Dr. will probably supply
a New Haven pulpit during the month of
August. The committee of our First Con-
gregational church hope to secure him for at
least one Sunday in July, and we trust they
will succeed. ‘ ‘

Miss Raymond‘s third appearance before

The day the nation celebrates will be due
next Tuesday, and will be “ushered in"
pretty early in the morning. All who intend
to celebrate should have their plans matured
and arrangements made in gOOd' season.
Where to go will be a much booted ques-
tion. Commodore White offers the attrac-
tions of a fifty miles sail on the cool waters.
of the Sound and Ocean in the morning
with several hours at the sea side resort
at Rockaway Beach with surf bathing
in front of the ' biggest hotel . on
earth, cool sea breezes, and a return soil of
fifty miles in the afternoon and evening, all
at a remarkably low price.
For those who remain in town, Reton
Point will be the great resort, and Mr. Aekert
is preparing to, entertain large crowds. It
will be seen by ndvcltisellleut that. he has
engaged two steamiuiats t') run on that day
between South Nnrwulk and the l'pint at

One of the New York bsnco men will
probably remember for some time the cordial
reception be received from one of our worthy
sons of toil on a late visit to the city. Our
friend, a blacksmith, having resided in the
city for some fiars, thought he was pretty
well acquainted with the tricks, ctc., and
therefore when the banco steerer, apparently
taking him for agrecn countryman, accosted
him, with great cordially, as Mr. Jones of
such a place, so glad. to see him, ctc., our
blacksmith thought he would not be out-
done in warm and friendly greeting, so
seizing the runner's hand-in his vice like?
grasp, and giving it a tremendous squeeze
and twist, he exclaimed: "Why, how are
you, John, when did you come to the city;
who would have thought of meeting you
here.” A policeman looming up in the dis-
distance, the poor baneo man twisted,turned
cursed and begged of his _dear friend Jones
to let up, which he finally did just as the
policeman arrived, when the fellow shot off
like a rocket and the policeman merely re-
marked that he had been served just right.
In the Malley trial last week, the defence

riding on the flying horses on that fatal Fri-
day night was totallylfalse; this was testi-
mony from their daughter and son-in-law ; _
the stcnographer also strengly contradicted
testimony of Miss Lulu Malley. The court
is to be resumed a‘n this morning.

WATERBURY.
It would score Norwnlk people to visit
Waterbury all witness the wonderful pros-
perity of that pushing community. New
buildings are going up in every part of the
city, near and far from the center, and real
estate is booming as it never boomed before.
Residences are so close together in many
places that the lady of the house can sit at
her window and talk to the neighbors all
around her. In numerous cases owners of
expensive residences cannot wheel a wheel-
barrow arcuud their houses on their own
land. The number of perfectly elegant
places is constantly and rapidly increasing,
while the character of the houses of opera-
tives is unusually good. Even the old-time,
ugly business center is improving uite fast,
the lines of business places are p log out,
and the Waterbury of the near future promi-
ses to be a lovely as well as enterprising city.
And all this is owing to the great variety of
her industries and the success of her great
msnufactories.
In the newspaper line Waterbury has a
daily which keeps pace with the rapid
growth of the city; The American has re-
cently been enlarged and greatly improved,
and is an honor to the place. The two week-
ly papers, the American and Republican are
good' journals and to the credit of the city
be it said there is not a scalwag paper in Wa-
terbury. .
The State of Connecticut :succeeded in se-
curing a very good, central and pleasant lo-
cation for the new armory in Waterbury, but
the price paid for the same made Governdr
Bigelow wince. The lot is just large enough
for the proposed building, and the price ‘vas
$7,500.
Waterbury has had ten or a dozen cases of
small pox, a number of which proved fatal.
The disease seems to be on the increase, and
s lygc number of persons are said to have
been exposed, several. cases occurring in
boarding houses in thickly settled portions of
the city. A piece of red fisnnel is tacked on
the fr. 'of one house where the disease
exists, but the streetsall around are open and
traveled much as usual. In the last case re-
ported, last Week, from a house in the same
neighborhood; the patient was removed to
the pest house. The authorities are supposed
to be doing something to prevent the spread
'of the disease, but the people generally seem
tobevery indifierent and so far have not
manifested any “scare.”
m
Strawberries began coming in from our
local raisers this last week, and probably will
be in their prime this week. The Wake-
man's of Green’s Farms are considered the
largest producers of berries and small fruits
in this vicinity, and on Friday last Mr. H. B.
Wakeman sent us in specimens of the Sharp-
less variety, probably the largest berries ever
shown here in Norwalk. Having just been
joined, politically, this last year with Green’s
Farms in the 13th Senatorial District, and
having started it successfully Republican by
a monstrously large majority. we are glad to
see other things follow suit and be equally
monstrous in their line. We are assured
that these berries are Republican berries—
no Democrats among them,—and of course
that accounts for their extreme size, beauty
and sweetness. '

During hot weather it behooves all having
low, close gsrret rooms to have a care to the
ventilation thereof. Last Thursday the
thermometer up to 97, a resident of one
of the houses on the Shore Road, near
the Lock-up, thought she smelled something
burning up stairs, so going up into the gar-
m.,—a small, close stifling room, used
for storage—she opened a small window to
look around, when instantly a bag of carpet
rags hanging up, burst out intoa flame. But
for her presence of mind in catching up a
blanket and" smothering the fire, the building
w0uld have seen been shine. The rags had
been hanging there from Oct. last, and on
opening the bag, she found the balls of cot.
ton rags were‘burnt, the woolen not. It was
evidently spontaneous combustion.
