IDI'I‘ORIAL Llr'l'm.
Wummroa. Manon 81st, 1884.
Dan Gama-All hell! the Democ-
racy on-the fioor of the House have done
one thing at least for which they are
deserving of commendation. Although
large numbers voted for and vehemently
urged the passage of the Bonded Whiskey
bill. there were found enough who had‘
respect enough for the moral sentiment
of the people behind them, to join with
the Republicans and defeat that infamous
measure. or course the promoters of the
"a
schema knew full well that the bill was
' only a subterfuge and pretenceto work
through a bill which should take off the
tax on whiskey altogbther. Judge Kelly
favored the bill on the ground that if the
whiskey texes were abrogated the nation
would be forced to maintain a high tsrlf
in order to provide its needful revenues.
There was a bitter tilt between Joe Black-
burn and ex-Spcsker Randall, but this
show of temper had its origin in the free-
trsde feeling of Blackburn and the pro-
tection hereslea of Randall, as in the
whisky squabble. For once enough
Democrats were frightened by the public
sentiment of the country into joining
hands with the Republicans and defeating
a most iniquitous scheme to rob the
treasury and lower the moral condition
of the nation, and for it let them be
praised. Of course the whisky men are
wild with indignation, and justly so if the
stories afloat that they had expended
nearly a million dollars in Ohio and other
debatable states in exam to elect a Dem-
ocratic majority to the present House,
with a perfect understanding with the
party leaders that their recompense was
to be the“ passage of this bill.
' res-c canons. -‘
The Democratic caucus, which it was
resolved should be a free-trade love feast,
proved {only that the grand army of
Democratic patriots could march up the
hill and' then march down again. It
certainly resulted in their coming out of
the same-hole they went in at. As one
member assured us, every Democratic
brother r.thtered the fixed resolve to “be-
have his lself" except Mr. Eaton, who, it
seems, c2 sused considerable uneasiness by
his plain methods of expressing himself.
The ex-sl'snstor was undoubtedly a little
“cross" a: lthe advertised manner his party ..
was mskl‘lng tools of themselves on the
free-trade: issue. He gave Sammy Cox
a setting ldown, and was somewhat un-
lovely iul’bis temper towards other free.
trade maillpulators. There is no doubt
that when. Mr. Eaton contemplated the
fact that I til party had convened in caucus
for the ex; press purpose of so handicapping
itself as tlft throw away every chance it
may ever? have bad of electing the next
'presldent, he did characterize the folly
and idiocy r of those leaders with expletives
not to he; found in any modern works of
theology.: He was also saddenld and
- surprisedlat the free-trade tendencies of
his colleague from New Haven, Mr.
Mitchell,’. and more so at the free-trade
hercsi’es rlrportcd to have been uttered by
ex-G’vverr‘sor James B. English in his
def nce tiff Mr. Mitchell’s action on the
Ml rrison'i bill. Put the “brotherly love"
is/ sure continue. and as a result the
Blepubllc. n party will continue to hold
the fort in the nation. while with the
Democraciv the tariff will continue to be,
so far as memocrntic members are con-
cerned, a_“;local issue. Where they have
protectionist constituencies they will op.
pose the hill; where the people believe in
free-trade they will favor it: where is.
difference prevails the'member will be
open to cbnvictlou. The caucus, how.
. «of, is still the chief subject of thought
and discussion among politicians here._
consuls.
Thursday saw the beginning‘of the end
of the session, in the struggle among rival
special orders -for consideration. The
Trade Dollar Retirement bill came out of
the scramble ahead and is now before the
House. From-this timc forth there will
boa continual fight for precedence among
the five hundred bills that are reported
favorably end are waiting the inclination
of the House. There are seven over.dne
special orders, twO‘ pending contested
election-cases, and ten appropriation bills,
not to speak of the threatened Tarifl’ bill,
all of which havcathe parliamentary right
of way, and are liable to be called up at
any moment. Hence the chance of even
a ' favored bill is small as against the field.
In the Senate, all the past week was
occupied in discussing the Blair Educa-
tional bill without, however, reaching a
vote. The bill has been so patched with
amendments that it ought to be recom-
mltted. ‘ _
Senator Platt will deliver an important
speech this Monday afternoon in the
Senate on the general subject of Patents,
and their worth and influence in develop-
ing the wealth and material expansion
and prosperity of ourcountry. Infor
motion has reached here that the senator,
has been selected as the orator of the day
at the unveiling of the Buckingham statue
in Hartford, June 18th.' A better selec-
tion could hardly have been made.

Mr. and no. Amos Treat and daughter,
of Bridgeport. are here.
The Mr. Wm. St. John, whose death
last week at Fredericksburg, Va., is re-
corded, was formerly a prominent and
most highly esteemed citizen of New
Csnsan,and a-brother in-law of the late
J. M. Carter, of Norwalk.
A.M. Lewis, largely interested in the
oyster planting business in Stratford and
Milford harbors, applied last week for the
privilege of dredging out the bar at the
mouth of Stratford river, and extending a
line to and putting a telephone in the
Strstford light house all at his own
expense.
Our Congressman Seymour has notified
the Bridgeport Harbor Improvement com-
mittee that he has'arrin'ged a hearing for
them before the House committee on
commerce on Thursday of this week.

E's-U. S. Treasurer Giifillau, who used
to run a bright little Republican paper up
iu'Rockvilfe a few years since, has just
declined the assistant secretaryship ef. the _
treasury tendered him by’the president
through Judge Folger. Afr. Gllfillan was
a classmate of the martyred Garfield at
Williams college. and had be accepted
this responsible place in the treasury, he
would have reflected honor upon Cou-
necticutas well as upon the place .snd
upon himself.
Minister Sargent, instead of accepting
the promotion to It. Petersburg to which
the president appointed and the Senate
confirmed him, has cabled the Secretary
of State that he desires to be relieved of
ministerial duties and return heme.
Ieuators Platt and Hawtey and wives
were invited to join a select senatorial
excursion party to Florida, which left
here Thursday and is to return to-rnorrow, .
but preferred to remain at their posts of
duty and so declined.
General and Mrs. Grant are in the city.
The' general is bubbling about today
without anew. '
Thornton Hunt. of New Haven, is at
the Arlington. ‘
Senator Anthony, already prestratsd
with disease, has met with a terrible
shock and close personal bereavement, in
the sudden death by paralysis caused by
overwork, of his business partner and
managing editor‘of the Providence Jour-
nal. Thev'great property and leading
newspaper is thus suddenly and unexpect.
edly left without a head, and the senator.
is the recipient of the sincerest sympathy
in his renewed aflletion. .
As Ever,
m
Safely bended.
The long-expected, looked for, and
much discussed sacred white elephant has
arrived at last and is safely housed at the
Madison Square Garden in New York.
Mr. Barnum, was notified by messen-
ger as soon as the vessel was sighted.
After reading. the telegram he called a cab
and drove to the North river where a tug .
was in waiting, and upon which be steamo
ed down the bay to meetthe Lydia lion
arch. it was nearly six o'clock when Mr.
Barnum ascended the side of the great
steamer. On‘ reaching the deck a few
words were exchanged. “How is he ?"
said the showman. “Flrst rate," yelled
a white bearded man in a cloth cap
"Thank God,” ejeculsted Mr. Barnum.
"There's $50,000 saved. _I tried to insure
him for that amount, and 1 am glad they
didn'l care to lake the chgncc of losing
$000,000." Below decks, after hatches
had b so removed to admit light, nothing
could be seen but the elephant‘s head or-
namented with finely formed tusks and
having on the frontal bone a sort of blue
of dingy pink extending partly down the
trunk. The animal is finely formed and
about seven feet high. His general color
iaa trifle darker than elephants usually
seen here. On the forehead is a large
pinkish patch which dies away in mottles
on the shoulders. The edges of the ears
'havc the same pink hue, and it appears in
a modified form between the fore legs
reaching up to the chest, and there are a
few spots of like nature on the hind quar-
ters. The make, twenty inches long are
remarkably white. .The inner surface of
the trunk is mottled with pink, and the
tail is well formed and reaches nearly to
the ground. At ,ths deck in Jersey City
the monster beast was slung out of the
steamer’s hold. placed on a tug, conveyed
to Twenty»thir'd street, and from mouse
to the Garden. ‘

The latest advices from Cincinnati, the
scene of a bloody riot, which had its birth
in an attempt to lynch Berner, the Kirk
murderer, last Friday night, are that the
situation is improvld, and it is now
believed that the worst _is over. The
entire military force of the stats, seven-
teen regiments, now occupies the city,
and all' the approaches to the public
buildings are strongly guarded. The
mayor's proclamation calling for. vol un-
teer police during the emergency and
warning citizens to keep out of the streets
has had a salutary affect. On'e of the

ance was killing of Capt. John J. Des-
mond, who, when the teounty tressurer's
office was burning marched at the head
of a smell detachment of mililia to save
the public property, when a bullet from
the mob went crashing through his brain,
killing him instantly. Capt. Desmond
was a valuable odicer of the First
regiment, and never shirked duty. He
was the sole, support of his widowed
mother, and was a promising young
attorney. Thirty persons are known to
have been killed during the rim, and sixty
or more wounded.
Ansonia Delayed. _
The town of Ansonia was the scene of
great excitement, Wednesday afternoon,
caused by the breaking of the reservoir
dam at. Beaver Brook, built for the water
supply of Antonia and for manufacturing
purposes. The break washed away tne
dam and water power of the Derby Bit
company, Schnell‘s Plating company, and
Smith's Fifth Wheel shop. The volume
of water rushedtoward the vlllags,tesrlng
away two highway bridges and “It. Nuu- ’

'Two or three barns were washed. away
'and the dwelling of Mr. Schnsller was

the inhabitants, flooding collars and lower
floors, anofileposltinga large amount of
debris. _ The Neug'atuck road ~’ will be

There are several little presidential
booms about heretofore but little mrn.
tloned, booms no larger than a man's
hand, and.which seem to have no more
commercial value than a last year's bird
nest,but they have in them possibilities
which make the possessors of big white
elephant bLOlnl turn pale at their very
mention. The position of the republican
party two months before the meeting of
the convention respecting the man to be
placed at the head of the ticket, is very
much the same as it was‘ four and‘eight
.years ago at thesame distance frOm the
nomination, and on both‘ of those
occasions, derkjhcrses won. Among the
republicen side is Senator Joe. Hewley,
of- Connecticut. Hawley has many
elements to recommend him :as a presi-
dential candidate. The soldiers of the
country are friendly toward him, and the
workingmeu generally regard him as'
having a sincere interest in their cause,
while he is looked upon by his' party as
an earnest and consistent republican,
without the factional "alliances which
weigh down some of the other candidates
for the nomination. Said a prominent
republican politician to your correspond
out at the capitol the other day : "Sixteen
years ago when I sat in the convention at
Chicago, which gave General Grant his
first nomination, 1 said to another dels~
gate at my elbow, as General Hewley
took the presiding ofilccr’s chair amidst

Trouble is the Stanford Post Odes.
There is a serious condition of alairs
in the Stamford post ofilce, and no little
talk is going on in our neighbor town in
consequence. It seems that when it was
decided to have a post omcsfitted up so
as to be a credit to the town, as agent
bids for furnishing a suitable office. He
received but one bill, that from Messrs.
Merritt an‘d Paine who are officers in the
Yale and Towns Manufactuhlng company.
Arrangements were made with these gen-
tlemen, to lit up fan office and lease it to
the government. They thereupon hired
astore in the Town Building for .840,
and put in the latest Ithpl'chd lock hoses,
made by the company in which they ere
connected and they asked the govern-
mut to lease the oflce for ten years at an
t annual ten: ,of 01,850. The government
dtu not sign the lease, but occupied the
place. Would that the cost of the once
was but $2,490, but friends of Messrs.
Merritt auu Paine claim that it 'wsa es.-
000. However this may he, complalut
paying altogether toomuch money for
the Stamford post ofilcc and the post
master-general .made an investigation and
found it to be much larger then in'other
places of equal else. , Then-upon an
agent was appointed to come to Stamford
to£dsy and receive bids for furnishing the
government with a suitable post bloc
The result of the bids will be awaited
