While there is so much talk about the
celebrated Guttenberg Bible, a curious
little coincidence in our midst is called
to mind. Mrs. E. J. Hill, while look-
ing up certain relics of the past in her
family, which is an old New England
one of much importance, found to her
delight, an ancient family Bible, which
was quite a prize. On examing the
imprint of the publisher, she found it
to be an ancestor of Mrs. D. N. Couch,
and that it was the first Bible publish—
ed in New England.

WASHINGTON, MARCH 5th, ’91
DEAR GAZETTE: . .
The books of the Fifty-first Congress
haven’t been balanced yet, but as near-
ly as can be ascertained without the aid
of ' an expert, the outgoing Congress
has disposed of pretty much everything
in sight in the shape of available cash,
and the democratic party, which for
several years past has been “viewing
with alarm” the accumulation of an
enormous surplus in the treasury, need
give itself no more uneasiness on that
score. ’
At its close Congress had been in
session 318 days. This will be exceed-
ed only by the record of the last Con-
gress, which sat several days later in
the long session than this one. The
number of deaths in this Congress has
exceeded by one those of any other
Congress, the death roll numbering 14,
while that ofthe Forty-fourth Congress
was 13 and the 49th Congress 12. _
It will require two or three days’5
time to collect all the returns, and:
ascertain just what measures were
actually passed by the late Congress.
Mr. Wm. R. Lockwood and George
H. Raymond were about town to-day
seeing the sights.
Rev. Dr. Childs has returned, well
pleased with his reception by old Nor-

What the Daily Gazette Representatiees
Sau' and 11mm at the illitl,
'Yesterday afternoon representatives
of the DAILY GAZETTE visited the mill
of the Union Manufacturing Company,
and were most pleasantly received and
agreeably entertained by Superintend-
ent Gilmore, whose knowledge of cassi-
mere manufacture and the intricacies
of the business was only attained by a
thorough apprenticeship in every de-
partment.
\Vhile in a general way there is but
little to be said in respect of the manu-
facture of woolens at this mill, a few in-
teresting facts were gleaned, which
were exceptionally instructive, to say
the least.
Piloted by Superintendent Gilmore,
the visitors were shown the process of
manufacture from wool washing, up to
the finished product. They also saw
the immense water wheel of 140 horse
power capacity, and in the domain of
Engineer Aiken the engine of about
400 horse power, and the two boilers of
over 100 horse power each.
Business at the mill is much better
than it was a year ago and the outlook
is promising. Employment is given to
nearly 175 persons, and in the dye
house it has been found necessary of
late to work overtime.
The passage of the McKinley bill has
already apparently been a decided
benefit. For example, Supt. Gilmore
picked up a sample of undressed worst-
ed and said : “Before the passage of
the McKinley bill this cloth was im-
ported at $1.90. Its price now is $2.09.
At former figures American competi-
tion was practically out of the question.
Ne w, as it can only be imported profit-
ably at an advance of nineteen cents a
yard, we are enabled to compete suc-
cessfully and the business generally is
to that extent stimulatet ."

TRIP To IIARTFORD. J. COLORED
WA TC minty s Ulv'lv‘ocn TED.
The big sidewheel steamer City of
Richmond of the Hartford line was tak-
ing on freight in New York at Pier .24,
East River, at.3.15 o’clock yesterday
afternoon when somebody sung out:
“Fire on the main deck! ” .
The flames were in a pile of cotton
bales amidships, and the alarm was
given barely in time. The boat was to
have left for Hartford at 5 p. m., and
several men who were to [have been on
duty all night were sleeping in their
bunks. Four were in the forward cabin
below the main (leek, called the “glory
hole.” In the saloon cabin were the
steward, H. C. Hills, Quartermasters
H. C. Williams and J. B. Anderson,
Pilot Timothy Warner and other offi-
cers, beside some of the waiters and
chambermaids. All of the above nam-
ed got ashore in safety but. without
' their belonging, and some of the wait-
ers who hadn’t time to save even over-
coats were glad to borrow car fare to
take them to friends up town.
Of the four men in the “glory hole,”
.Sam Lambert, a colored watchman,
alone had not been seen when the fire
was finally subdued. Halsey Hills,
another watchman, who was the last
man out, said that Lambert was asleep
in his bunk when he saw him last.
When the alarm of fire came the three
men tumbled hastily 11p the ladder, and
had to run the gantlet of the flames’
fierce breath before they reached the
pier.
Lambert’s eScape was cut off by the
smoke, which soon poured into the
“glory hole” in dense clouds and suffo-
cated him. After the firemen got to
work a large force concentrated their
efforts on this part of the ship, but it
was an hour and a half before the lad-
derway was clear. Firemen tried to
chop through the deck to the imprison-
ed man, but the thick layers of plank-
ing resisted the efforts of axes, picks
and saws for a, long time. When the
“glory hole" was entered Lambert was
dead. He was thirty-five years old.
The City of Richmond was fully load—
ed and her cargo included 150 bales of
cotton, crude rubber to the value of
$10,000, dry goods, groceries, tinware,
notions and several hundred bales of
rags and paper. She lay with her head
to the stream, and the fire-fighters
poured watery broadsides into her from
both sides. The port side of the boat
was burned to the gunwale, and only a
skeleton of the upper works remained
when the flames were finally extin-
guished. -
Sparks from somewhere, perhaps
from a careless deck hand’s pipe, are
thought to have fired the cotton. The
loss to the New York and Hartford
Transportation Company, which owned
the boat, will be $50,000; covered by
insurance to the amount of 375,000.
The damage to the cargo is estimated
at $40,000.
The City of Richmond was built seven
years ago and plied on the James River
for awhile. She is 265 feet long, 34 feet
3 inches beam, and of 1,000 tons burden.
No- passengers were booked yester-
day, as the purser’s office did not open
for this purpose until an hour before
sailing time. The City of Richmond
was scheduled to sail on Wednesday,
but was delayed by the storm on the
down trip from Hartford. Her sister
steamer in the line is the City of Spring-
field. - .
Once before the City of Richmond
was on fire, though the flames did far
less damage than yesterday. Three
years ago, during Christmas week, she
struck a rock near the foot of Ninth
street and sank. The water rushing in
the hold drove the fires to the deck,
and there was a lively blaze in the car-
go for awhile.

.iumEl) .{DADIS’S WIFE.
He Says M'rs. Iloyt can ll'iml Her Around
Her Finger.
Alfred Adams, colored, of New Ha-
ven, went to police headquarters in that
city Wednesday, and besought the aid
of the powers that be, toget his wife
away from her “abductor,” Mrs. Hoyt,
who coaxed Mrs. Adams to linger in
her domicile in preference to the roof
provided by Mr. Adams.
The husband says he has enjoyed five
years of unalloyed wedded bliss, and
only the appearance of the serpent in
the shape of the too alluring Mrs. Hoyt
could have won his wife from him.
He says that he became enamored of
the lady whom he married, in this wise :
She was living in the family of his
brother in New York, when he went
there on a visit. He stoodbefore the
mirror one day trying to part his hair,
when she offered to part it for him;
.when lo! the winged god sent an arrow
straight to his heart ~»-he was hopelessly
in love. '
The Woman’s Column.
A woman who has thoroughly studied
the subject, gives us a bright and help-
ful article in “The Fortnightly Re~
View,” upon Electricity as applied to
Decorative Purposes. This comes so
directly in the line of certain advanta-
ges, and annoyances brought to our
minds by, the general use of electricity
in lighting, that we feel like giving
some of her ideas onthe subject.
One who has given any attentionto '
the very important matter of lighting
her drawing-room, library, or dining-
room, and what woman with a particle
of lasthetic taste, has not done so ?
knews that there is no more becoming
light than the combination of candle
and fire-light, but alas, these days of
modern invention have done away with
such old-time methods except as acces-
sories. The electric light seems to
glare at you so uncomfortably and is
placed so high, that one must sit direct-
ly under it to get its full effect. As
business and pleasure become year by
year more closely crowded into our
lives, the importance of rest and home
comfort, when we have time to com-
mand these luxuries, increases. What
were simply luxuries to our ancestors,
become necessities to our over strained
nerves. There are such marvelous
possibilities in electricity that there
must be some fault in the designers of
lights and holders if they are not what
they should be. Very probably it is as
our friend‘in the Fortnightly says. So
far designers~ of electric light fittings
are too much the slaves of precedent,
derived frcm their experiences with
gas, candles and other relics of the
past ; forgetting that the shapes of the
holders of all these lights are deter-
mined by the necessity of leaving a
clear space above them for the escape
of hot air, and also by the condition
that they must be within the reach of
the match used for lighting. Not till
they realize fully their freedom from
these limitations, will designers begin
to appreciate properly the artistic pos-
sibilities of the new illuminant, and
give us original designs of flying fig-
ures, birds and carved cupids, delicate
chain work, faintly tinted glass, and
china powdered with flowers. In the
rooms where we live, there should be
two kinds of light, a faint shaded one
to read, talk or think by, and a
brighter .light to “play by. ” With a
bright light meditation will not be fer-
tile, and with a dim light play will not
be vigorous. Light, like sympathy,
should be unobtrusive to be pleasant,
and soft reflected rays fall more kindly
than direct light on tired eyes, and on
the faces and figures of those who have
passed the “half-way house” of life.
The master of the house generally
wishes to get all the light possible, and
the mistress to have it as becoming and
pretty as possible. It is rather difiicnlt
to reconcile these two wishes, and
after some discussion the master testi-
ly exelaims : “My dear, what is the
use in going to all this expense, if you
will tie the lights up in bags ‘9"
Electricity solves the long standing
problem between conscience and incli-
nation, as it enables us to read in bed
safely. i" “‘
It is interesting in the sudden and
unwelcome ‘ ‘cold snap’ ’, which has ever-
taken us, to note the different. yet
equally forcible motive power which
keeps people really and actually warm,
for we don’t believe they are shamming.
We think it is simply another evidence
of the power of mind over matter!
There is the pretty maiden whose light
and stylish jacket for spring wear is so
becoming that though the winter winds
are whistling, the calendar showing
“spring makes it impossible for her to
keep on the heavy winter wrap, and the
woman whose fur cape looks SO much
better when worn alone, rather than
over the heavy coat. She dofi's the lat-
ter, notwithstanding her pinched el-
bows. This motive power we may call
vanity, and who doubts its power '3
' Then there is the man too poor to buy
a new winter overcoat, but who has a
light top coat. He wears the latter and
is kept warm by pride. But most won-
derful of all there is the corner loafer.
No chilling wind, no driving storm
from the north pole, is cold enough to
drivehim from his post of vantage, and
take away the only occupation he seems
to have in the world. ‘ It is a never end-
ing matter for speculation to busy folk,
what these men find to talk about day
after day and evening after evening
It must be with them as with the man
who had for many a long day held up a
gate’post. He was asked by a gentle—
man interested in this very subject,
—what he thought about all the time.
“Nothing,” was the dreary and proba-
bly entirely correct answer, more cor-
rect than most things in this uncertain
world. ‘

Hartford, Conn, March 6.—The J u-
diciary committee of the House is care-
fully considering Mr. J udson’s bill
concerning the settlement of future
difficulties. The Judiciary committee
will, he says, report favorably on this
bill and also provide an amendment,
which will in substance apply to the
present trouble. Representative J ud-
son believes that the Senate will concur
in the plan, provided the democrats are
always left on the defensive and the
burden of contests in the Courts thrown
upon republican candidatesfor the state
offices. A strong undercurrent of opin-
ion, somewhat outside of the “Steering
committees” of both parties, is in favor
of a speedy settlement. Senator Sey-
mour. chairman of the Senate commit-
tee which is trying General Graham‘s
case, denies the report' that the commit-
tee has decided to bring in a favorable
report for General Graham.

“Gentleman in good position in so-
