There is nothing in our whole political
system, that furnishes so enjoyable a safety-
valve to the average free and independent
American voter, as the annual town meet-
ing. If Smith or Jones or Furgeson, are so
unfortunate at any time duringthe whole
year, to get at loggerhcads upon any sub-
ject, either says in his mind if not in words
“just wait till town meeting, when he’ll be
a candidate for something and then I’ll get
even with him." It may be that Furgeson
has an inordinate itch for ofilcc for the
office’s sake, while J ones is too proud to beg
and too lazy to work and he wants a
little town ofiice to pay for his cigars and
beer, so he “sets up” the caucus and is
nominated. But alas, Smith has become
jealous of him or is his enemy and as soon
as the “regular ticket” appears his wily
adversary runs out a “split. ticket” or has
"pastels” deftly printed and mucilagcd to
overlap the candidate and if not beaten. (as
is often the case,) he is run so far below his
party vote as to feel the slight and be ren-
dered miserable over such an evidence of
his waning popularity, while his adversary
from some sly corner just chuckles way
down to his corns, over the discomforture
he has caused his enemy. These perform-
ances are general and not confined to any
- party. Indeed, here in Norwalk. it is inter.
eating to note the absolute impartiality with
which this guerilla warfare is carried on, on
town meeting days, in the ranks of both
parties. These performances make sore
heads and sore hearts, but upon the whole
we are inclined to the opinion that such a
safe safety-valve to the body politic is often
a blessing rather than a curse. Surely
it were better to “square up” these little
neighborhood and personal differences at the
town elections than to forever “nurse our
wrath and keep it warm.”
"I——-____._-__—.-—'
The Republicans of New York, as well as
the Independent and “Half-breed” press,
are making it “red hot” for Secretary Folger
and the alternative seems to face him of
either declining the nomination procured for
him, by such devious ways, or suffer an
overwhelming defeat. The Judge is an un-
usually able man of the purest and most up-
right personal character, but this does
not avail in view of the fraud fainting
the methods of his nomination for Governor
of New York. He, has managed the Treas-
ury and discharged his official duties with
entire fidelity, but has been able to win few
laurels in that ,high ofiice, because it: has all
been “plain sailing” for {him There has
been no chance for him to display high fi-
nancial capabilitiesjeven if he possesses such
as his friends claim that he does. He has not
been forced to originate, like Mr. Windom,
s. refunding law for the protection of both
the financial credit and the business prosper—
ity of the country, but has beeen content to
quietly carry out the acts of Congress regu-
lating his department.
OYSTER Emma—For the first time in the
history of old Norwalk, its quiet bivalvular
loving denizens, have suffered an oyster
famine, but we see by the following “clip"
from the Port Chester Journal, that New
York State is coming to our rescue.
“Captain Wm. Monrell took a load of oys-
ters to Norwalk in his sloop, the “George
Stacy,” last Saturday. This is the first load
of oysters from here this season. and they
were very nice for this season of the year.”
The fact is, Norwalk oysters have become
so popular all War the world that the de-
mand has exhausted, all the beds from
Greenwich to Groton to supply the demand
for the simon pure iNorwalk bivalve.

‘ The moonlight (1’) excursion given by the
Pegasus, last Tuesday evening, proved a
success, despite the clouds and heavy sea.
A large and select company accepted the
Iron Company's invitations and although
many of the ladies and “weaker brethren,”
Were a bit sea-sick, as a whole the sail down
the Sound to Captain’s Island and return
proved quite enjoyable, although about cv-
erybody invited regretted that it had not
been postponed till Wednesday evening,after
seeing what a fine night that proved to be.
A train of five cars ran down from Danbury
andwas well filled with happy excursionist
from all “along the line," who returned at a
little before eleven.
—'____——___'—
We spent quite an interesting hour one
day last week in looking at the process of
manufacturing cotton twine at the Lees
Manufacturing Co.’s Mill, Westport. The
company has a fine large mill, three stories
high devoted to this industry. It was filled
with fine, new machinery, which was run-
ning full capacity and turning out about
a ton of twine per day. The firm hasa
ready sale for all they can manufacture and
it is all sold before leaving the mill; no
chance for wastage through commission
dealers, agents, etc.,as they are their own
agents and sell direct to dealers and con-
- burners. There was quite a busy hum of
industry heard all through the mill, the like
of which we should be glad to see in a score
or so of new places here at home.

Another Tunnel Victim Dead.
Miss Lizzie A. Crommclin, who was in-
jured in the accident in the accident in the
Fourth avenue tunnel, died at. the Grand
Union Hotel. Miss Crommclin was twenty-
five years of age, and was a teacher in
Grammar School No. 25, in East Fifth. street.
The New York Herald and othe influen-
tial papers are demanding that the Harlem
Tunnel be abandoned altogether, unless al-
tered and improved. At all events the
Consolidated Road owes it to to the public
and its stockholders as well, to abandon the
death-trap at the first possible moment.

The church meeting last Wednesday ev-

Hon. John R. Buck.
The republicans of the Hartford district
have done themselves and the state a credit
and a service by the renominstion of Hon.
John R. Buck, the present Congressman. As
we chance personally to know, no district in
the whole union has a more faithful, upright
or judicious member. He never occupies
the time and attention of the House, (as is
often the practice with young lawyer Mem-
bers) in making buncome speeches to deceive
his constituents at home or gratify his own
Vanity. When Mr. Buck had anything to
say, he uttered it in concise, strOng words
and sat down and never talked to hear him-
self talk. Added to his frank and genial
niturc he takes broad and generous and
accurate views of public matters, and is, all
in all, a model congressman and the republi-
cans will. serve the country and honor them-
selves far more than they can him, by
triumphantly rc-electing him.

Not content with the assurance of having
a lieutenant governor for two years, the re-
.publicans of Fairfield county are preparing
to catch the governorship in 1884, and have
set about it very shrewdly by naming the
Hon. Phineas C. Lounsbury for the place.
He is so good a candidate that even a very
premature nomination may not harm him.
-New Haven Palladium.
Well, you see, Fairfield county has for so
many years suffered such extreme poverty
in the way of state offices, compared with
her sister counties and all on account of her
extreme modesty, We thought it sort 0'
justifiable to “serve notice" two years in ad-
vance. after the manner of our Hartford
friends. The scriptures say “ask and ye
shall receive” and we don’t want to be left
two years hence, because, as heretofore, we
have not let our wishes be known, and we
don't propose to be either.
Mr. Gibson’s Organ Recitals.
‘ Lovers of good music are offered a delight-
ful entertainment in the feast of good things
prepared by Mr. Gibson. A thorough
student of his high art, constantly keeping
himself fully up to its progress, a conscien-
tious interpreter of its best attainments, hc
will bring forth from his rich repertoire its
choicest productions, new as well as old.
Indeed, one reason of any lack of popular
appreciation of his performances, which his
friends have ever regretted, is that very
conscientiousness that keeps him ever striv-
ing toward the highest standard of chaste
and classic music, and will not condescend
to lower achievements to win the applause
of the uncultivated. This community owes
him a debt for his preserving efforts to
elevate its taste, as well as for many other
public services. During the fifteen years of
his residence in Norwalk those services have
been unremitting, and often freely rendered
on private as well as public occasions. Be-
yond, therefore, the opportunity thus afford-
ed of musical enjoyment, isthat of testimony
to a public benefactor. Mrs. Swan is too
favorably known in this her native town to
need commendation. B.
We recently noticed the fact that George
W. Jennings, Esq., some forty years ago
erected the first house on Merwin street.
The second house was erected by Mr. .Wm.
G. Linebrugh now of Bridgeport. Mr. L. had
just started out in life and was in the busi-
ness of a truckman and nights and mornings
and at odd hours, graded his lot and cleared
it of stones, with his own hands, pick, shovel
and wheelbarrow and the late Chas. Thomas
had such confidence in him that he furnished
the lumber and had the house put up for
Lineburgh, who a few years subsequently
paid every cent of it of! from his hard carn-
ings and prudent savings. We are glad to
know that fortune has favored Mr. L. and
that he is today recognized not only as a
man of wealth, but among Bridgeport’s first
and best citizens.
The Steamboats.
What with the rain, heavy east winds and
extremes of high and low water, the rival
steamboats bad a rather uncomfortable time
of it last week. The Pegasus proved hef-
self to be an able sea boat and the White
liners showed their usual high speed, despite
the storm. Such along continued period of
long continued storm in September has not
been known since the time Capt. Brooks ran
the old Nimrod to New York, through an
easterly gale continuing for seventeen days
on one of which that resolute old navigator
greatly feared that he should lose his steamer
Prohibtion in Kansas.
The New York Weekly Witness has receiv-
ed a telegram from Topeka which says that
the saloons in that city all closed their doors
yesterday, and that the saloon men made an
unconditional surrender to the citizen’s com-
mitte of fifty, agreeing to pay all costs of
suits pending in the courts and discontinue
business infgood faith.

Miss Ada. Dyes.
This talented actress, and so universaiy
and deservedly a favorite with the play going
public, commenced her fall engagement at
Hartford, last evening and will appear at
Music Hall, South Norwalk, on next Tues-
day evening, Oct. 10th, in the comedy of
“An Unequal Match. Of course this means
a crowded house.
New Postal Boxes.
Postmaster Olmstead has contracted for a
lot of new Yale Lock boxes for our borough
post ofiice. His orders will be increased just
as fast as our business men desirelthem and
are willing to pay the slightly increased rent-
als. We have no doubt that the great major-
ity of those renting boxes will want them as
soon as they see their greater convenience and
advantages.

Base Ball.
On Saturday, the Good Lucks and Stars
played a game of ball on the Fair. Grounds
for a purse of $20. The game was closely
contested, resulting in the score of 14 to 13
in favor of the club with a lucky name.
The Stars are plucky, however, and will
play another game with the same club, next
Saturday afternoon, for a large purse.
Good News!
Commodore White has closed a contract,
as we are credibly informed, for a new
steamboat to be built with special refrencc
to the needs of the Norwalk route. She is to
be a safe sea boat and the fiwlest steamer on

An Oyster Case.
The Superior Court at New London was
occupied Wednesday in hearing the case of
Gideon F. Raymond-vs. Nathan S. Fish, and
it is likely to continue for several days. It is
an outgrowth of the Poquonnock river
oyster war. Mr. Raymond claims damages
of $25,000 for the removal of his oysters a’nd
brush from the Poquonnoc river by the
health committee.

The Connecticut Elections; 1‘
Hsnrroan, Conn, Oct. 2.+Mmt-of, the
towns of the State held elections for town
officers today. The vote was generally very
light. In Hartford the Democrats elected
all the towu officers, except the treasurer.
who is a Republican. Middletown sud
Bloomfield are Democratic and Waterbury is
Republican. West Hartford, Wethersfield,
Berlin, Andovcr, Meriden, Windsor, Glas-
tonbury and Sufileld also elected Republican
town officers. Hartford, Middletown, New
Britisn, Meriden and most of the larger towns
vote for license, and some of the smaller
towns for no license. The principal politi-
cal issue in the town elections is in obtaining
a majority of the Boards of Registration,
which consist of the Selectmen and Town
Clerk. The law now allows of a minority
representation on all Town Boards. In
Hartford last year, the Republicans elected
a majority of the town ofiicers.
m
Judge Folger Accepts.
Secretary Folger accepted the Republican
nomination for Governor of New York in a
long letter issued last night. He disclaims
responsibility for the questionable methods of
his nomination and discusses at great length
the consequences likely to result should he
decline. It is to be feared that his subtle
arguments cannot save his party from an
overwhelming defeat.
Dr. Trowbridge Killed!
The startling announcement reached us
yesterday of the death by accident or mur.
der of Dr. Trowbridge, of Stamford. He
was found Sunday, in Miller's new building
on Atlantic street with his skull fractured
and having other severe injuries. He died
at 6:30 p. m. It is supposed that he may
have fallen from the upper story, a distance
of fourteen feet. The affair is surrounded
with mystery, and will be fully investigated.
The Doctor’s death will of course end his
most unsavory trial now pending in our
courts on a charge of malpractice on a Nor-
walk woman.
P. S.—It is concluded that the Doctor
went up to the Miller building before day-
light, to ace the comet and making a misstep
fell some fifteen feet below and causing his
death.

Sons of Temperance.
Last week was generally observed through-
out this continent as the fortieth anniversary
of the foundation of ,the ORDER of the Sons
of TEMPEBANOE.
Concord Division, S. of T., held public
anniversary exercises on Friday evening
last. The attendance was as large as the
Division Room, a very pretty Hall, would
accommodate. The exercises were of an in-
teresting character, and each part was well
taken. P. G. Chap. Selleck Youngs opened
the meeting with prayer. P. W. P. E. Fan-
cher gave a history of the Order. Then fol-
lowed recitations and addresses by one and
another of the members. A large and ex-
cellent choir sang several songs suited to the
occasion. G. W. P. F. M. Hawley. of New
Canaan, was- present and addressed the
meeting. Members of Friendship Division,
of New Canaan, of Wilton Division and of
Old Well Division, of South Norwalk were
also present.
The Division needs a new organ and- two
were on the stage for trial, and were used
in the entertainment.
Concord is nearly as old as the Order is.
It has done a great work here in this town
and state, and gives excellent promise for a
long life to come.

day, the Republicans made a clean sweep

“Curses, like Chickens, come
home to Boost.”
Last year in the Republican Caucus for
nomination of Town OMcers there was a
contest between Capts. Andrew and Isaac
Selleck for the position of selectmcn ; Capt.
“Ike” won, and then the friends of Capt.
Andrew, very injudiciously ran him as an
independent candidate. although there was
not theslightcst chance of electing him, they
however accomplished what they sought,thc
defeat of Capt. Isaac. ,
This year in the caucus Capt. Andrew
secured the nomination, and yesterday at
the polls, Capt. Ike's friends proceeded to
administer a bolters dose to Andrew in re-
turn for last year’s bolt. They succeeded so
well that they not only defeated him badly
as selectman, but also came near electing a
Democrat [in his place as a Justice of the
Peace.
Now this ought to be a lesson for the
party managers here, to heed, to never again
take up a “boiter” for a leading position
and especially avoid taking side in personal
feuds In all such cases it would be much
the better policy to drop all of the contend-
ing factions and take new men who are not
or have not been engaged in any of these
personal strifes. In this way, they can pre-
serve the supremacy of the party and give
satisfaction to, the rank and file, but the ef-
fort to force unpopular candidates, however
competent ‘or worthy they may be, upon the
people can only result, as now and hereto-
fore in demoralization and defeat.
Will the lesson be heeded in the future ?
And now, as the “honors are even" be-
tween the two Scllecks, why can’t they,
“bury their hatchet.” and be :good, friendly
fellows between themselves and straight and
true republicans, party-wise.

It seems our newly elected school visitor
“to fill a vacancy” endeavored to prove his
schoolmaster , qualities, by trying to thrash
one of the big lubberly boys at the Town

by a good round majority.

effected, through Mitchel" agency, of the‘
City as..."
The late caucuses for Town and City,.con-
sumed so much time that the 'néw . plan of
nominating, did not receive the consideration
it deserved.
It is an attraction to see a fine crop of veg?
etables upon any one‘s property, but a crop
of carrots near Mr. Board's residence is quite
too near the street, and very handy to sample.
It is a pity that they should be thus stolen.
Councilman Clarence Nash is quite ill, and
unable to attend to business. He is at pres-
ent with Dr. Orton, his brother-in-law, hav-
ing his care, as well as tho invigorating air
of the bill.
It was feared, some little time since, that
on account of the positive declination of the
Mayor and present members of the board of
Councilmen, to accept a re-nomination, it
would be difficult to fill their places. It has
proved to be so. Both the great political
parties were so short of timber, they have
united in nominating the same men' for the
most important offices, Mayor and Water
Treasurer. Town-wise it. is the same in one
instance at least, Assessor. Well it is not
every one who can be so popular.
A man was thrown from his wagon on
Saturday night, while turning the corner by
Trinity Chapel. A crowd soon gathered,
and Dr. Bohannan was notified of the occur-
ance by J. H. Smith. The man was found
not to be very seriously hurt, but many Of
the “lagerbeer” bottles with which his wag-
on had been loaded, were hurt badly, as the
fragments laying around testified.
Music continues in long intervals,'at the
Post office. The instrument now used is the
E. O. L. I. A. and the music very fine.
We have to ask of you “Is nothing to be
done in the City or Country” to subdue and
eradicate those noxious plants “Canada This-
tles" and “wild carrots." The fields around
are full of carrots, and there is one dooryard
in this city, where there are 5,000,000 of seed
ready to drop to the earth, to bring forth as
many plants next year. Tell us whose duty
it is to see the law enforced and we will go
for them.
Amusements.
Manager Mitchel is certainly sustaining
the reputation made by him last season, and
is presenting to the theatre going public a
classs of entertainments surpassed by no city
in the country. On Wednesday evening of
this week, Bartley Campbell's “Galley Slave
Company" will occupy the Opera House,
and without exception this company is one
of the finest on the road. It has been played
over 2,000 times throughout the large cities
of the country, and later in the season it will
play an engagement at the Grand Opera
House in New York city. Some of our
leading citizens who have seen tha'company
at the Windsor Theatre, New York, prc-
nounce _it one of the finest and best plays
ever witnessed by them,and the Opera House
should be packed.
The Union Square Theatre Company in
one of Bartley Campbell's best plays entitled
“My Partner,” will appear as the Opera
House, on Saturday evening of this week.
The company has scored a great success at
the above named theatre, and we presume
our people are sufiiciently familiar with the
company to require no words of praise from
our pen. The New York World for Sept. 17
says: . .
"My Partner, with which the preliminary
season at the Union Square Theatre last night
opened, is remarkable for the consistency of
its story, the brightness of its dialogue, the
force of its dramatic situations, and the keen
humor of its comedy: It contains no plag-
iarism. As a presentable play, the half fa-
miliar characters will materially advance its
popularity. The acting deserves the highest
commendation. All the leading parts are
strong and affordample opportunities for the
display of ability, and all were well sustain-
ed. Altogether the performance was smooth
and satisfactory. The laughter and applause
of a large audience were spontaneous and
frequent.”
The 2nd M. E. Sunday school will give an
entertainment, aided by the Church, at the
Opera House, on the 24th and 25th of Oct.
Miss Lsncashire will read, and there will be
plenty of good music.

generals with skill: and forethought, our
soldiers with discipline and obedience, and

The Storm. ,
The northeaster. after morezthan a week’s
duration broke on Friday last, and though
severe, but little damage was done except the
washing of our highways which will need
prompt action to make them passable. The
tide on Thursday last was the highest at the
mouth of our harbor known to the oldest in-
habitants, which is to be accounted for from
the long easterly blow, at the full of the bar-
vest moon. The only damage done on the
extension at Wilson Point, was the washing
out of top of a portion of the embankment
across the cove near the‘Wilsou farm house,
but it was immediately refilled with stone
and did not cause any delay of the trains.
The steamer Pegasus has shown excellent
sea going qualities, having made her regular
trips, and on Thursday last when the storm
was the most severe, came through the sound
passing the Roscdale, and reaching her wharf
at Wilson Point in two hours and thirty-five
minutes from foot of 23d street, New York.
