A Case For Investigation.

Without entering upon any discussion
as to the merits or demerits of either side
in the recent batting troubles we simply
desire to call the attention of the public
to the fact that in certain cases no grand
jurors can be found to sign complaints
and no justices of the peace can be found
to sign warrants for the arrestZOf certain
men. The arrest of the batters last Mon-
day was a clearly illegal proceeding,
without warrant or without authorization
of law, and those ordering said arrest as
well as those making it should have been
punished therefor. Yet the greatest
difficulty was found ill procuring the
necessary signatures to the complaint
made by the parties arrested, and it was
only after a journey to the borough that a
grand juror was found who had a strong
enough sense of duty to sign a complaint
for what was a manifest violation of
law. The extreme indifference, not to say
unwillingness, of some of the grand jurors
applied to, to sign the complaints, should
be made the subject. of a thorough
investigation, for if through certain
potent reasons one, two or three men may
violate the law without apprehension.
who then is safe from illegal arrest and
imprisonment. “Let justice be done
though the Heaven's fall."

In this connection it might. be well to
suggest to Mayor Golden that the judicial
matters in his end of the town evidently
need looking after, and his attention
directed in that quarter will be more
beneficial than will his utterly uncalled
for viavgo—like and cowardly abuse of
borough judicial authorities.

Miss Board’s Institute.

The exercises at Miss Beard’s Institute
on Thursday evening were of great in-
terest and delighted a large audience of
friends and relatives of the scholars taking
part. The German play and the dramatic
readings were most. favorably received,
the scholars, in the former, showing a
thorough training in and mastery of the
German language. The display of draw-
ings in the front parlor received much
admiring attention. There were draw-
ings of heads, animals, landscapes, etc.,
etc., all of which showed remarkable tal-
ent. The essay "December and Heart
Flowers,” by Miss Iva Stillson was
listened to with the closest attention, and
at its conclusion Miss Stillson was present-
ed with a handsome basket of fioworh. The
programme embraced considerable music,
both vocal and instrumental, and while
' all did excellently,particularly the children,
_ the operas of IlTrovatore and William Tell
were probably the most admired. At the
conclusion of the exercises Miss Beard read
the names of those students in the academ-
ic, intermediate and primary departments
who held the first and second ranks, and
those holding first rank ill Latin, German,
music and drawing.

The house and piazza were crowded
with the patrons and friends of the school
all of whom expressed the highest satis-
faction with the entertainment. Miss
Beard has evidently taken great pains in
the development of the minds of her
scholars and if their performances on
Thursday evening were samples of what
they can do, she may Well feel proud of
her success and the excellence of her
school.

Buckingham Day in Hartford.

The occasion of the unveiling of the
statue of Governor Buckingham was ob—
served with great eclat at Hartford on
\Vednesday. The line of march began at
12 o’clock, the First Connecticut leading,
followed by the famous New York Seventh
regiment, which formed a splendid feature
in the procession. Some. 10,000 men were.
in line, the majority being veterans;
After the parade the unveiling of the
statue of GovernorBuckingllanl took place.
The Hon. H. B. Harrison. Speaker of the
House, presented it on behalf of the state,
and Governor “Taller responded. Follow-
ing this ceremony, the military veterans
and visitors were banquctcd ill spacious
tents, provision being made for 12.000
men. At. 3 p. In. Senator Platt delivered

pan oration on the life and character of

Governor Buckingham. In the evening a
dress parade alld drill was given by the
Seventh New York on Capitol Park.
which was witnessed by an audience of
several thousand. Later. the grand ban-
quet. of the Army and Navy club was
given at Allyn Hall to distinguished
guests, and the First Regiment gave an
entertainment at the Union Armory. Tl
city was crowded, and the railroads were.
taxed to their utmost. in transporting
visitors to and from the city. .

An Important Difference.

By its traitorous course. towards the re-
publican party the New York Times has
lost more than a hundred supporters in
this place alone, and that, without any“
equivalent increase from the democracy.
The Times oocupies the position of a cer-
tain army which crossed the stream, bum-
ing, its bridges behind it. There is this
difference, however' When November
comes and democracy shall have met the
enemy and are theirs, it will be a long and
tedious swim for the Times to get back to
the shore from whence it started. And
during that swim a goodly quantity of
«outer must, of necessity, be gulped down
its free trade throat. But let’ushope that
said water will have a purifying and
wholesome effect. .

The Blaine and Logan Club.

The meeting called for to-night at the
Anthcmcum for the purpose of organizing
a Blaine and Logan Campaign Club, prom-
ises to be unusually interesting to all who
attend. Already over 200 names have
been secured and the list is growing every
day. After the organization has been ef-
fected speeches will probably be made by
Revs. C. H. Everest and W. H. Thomas
'and Mr. J. Belden Hurlbutt and others.
All interested ill the republican party are
cordially invited to be present.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, June 23d, 1884.
DEAR GAZETTE ;——The sudden advent of
tropical heats has given a new and intense
desire for an early adjournment. , The
average congressman is not insensible to
the discomforts of atmospheric conditions
here when the thermometer is dancing
up towards a hundred, whatever theologi-
cal apprehensions lle may have about his
climatic possibilities in the hereafter. If
the present. week shall witness as rapid a
dispatch of the public business in either
House as during the last, there will be
little difficulty in adjourning at the end Of
next week. Of course to do so will
involve the usual neglect. and abandon-
ment of a vast amount of legislation,
which has been patiently and laboriously
matured by the various committees. This
will be very hard on many meritorious
and necessitons claimants, and in some
instances the public interests must needs
suffer by the abandonment of measures
that ought to be enacted into laws.
A NEW PENSION BILL.

The Senate committee on pensions has
reported a new Pension bill, wllicll_llas
awakened an unusual degree of interest.
It is designed as a substitute for the bill
granting a pension to all. soldiers who
served in the Meican war. It is known
that the confederates ill Congress, aided
by their ardent sympathizers in the demo-
cratic ranks, have labored most zealously
to get the Mexican Pension bill, which
has passed through the House, through
. the. Senate for the reason that it conferred
pensions upon a very large number of.
soldiers who subsequently fought in the
rebellion for the destruction of the Union.
The new senate bill seeks to do full jus-
tice first to those soldiers, their-widows
and minor childrén, who fought to pre-
serve the Union. It comes up again
to-dny in the Senate for further considera-
tion, and although it will be antagonized
by the confederate. element, it is not
doubted but that it willtpass the Senate.
In the democratic House its fate is more
uncertain, yet its provisions are so patri-
otic, just and equitable, that it does not
seem probable that the democratic House
would dare to defeat it just before going
before the people in a;presidential and
congressional election. The title of this
substitute bill is: “A bill to provide for
certain invalid soldiers and sailors, who
have been discharged from the army or
"navy 'of the United States after three
months service therein during the war of-
the rebellion, and for the widows and
dependent parents of deceased pensioners,
and so increase the late pension in certain
cases, and for other purposes.” Its lead-
ing provisions are: First, For all Union
soldiers or sailors who served three
months during the rebellion and received
honorable discharges, and who shall be-
come disabled from any cause not the re-
sult of his own misconduct, and who
becomes in whole or in part dependent
for support shall be entitled to receive
during the continuance of such disability,
at a rate proportionate to the degree
thereof. The highest rate being $30 per
month for a total disability, and graded
downward for all degrees of disability.
Second, All widows of above now receiv—
ing 88 per month shall receive $12, and
all widows and minor children of such
soldier ogsailor shall be entitled to pell-
sions as above, without being required to
prove that the death of husband or father
was the result of his army service. Pen-
sions given to any minors of unsound
mind or physically helpless shall extend
to the limit of such disability, regardless
of the limit as to age. Any dependent
parent of any such dead soldier or sailor,
not having wife or child, shall receive a
pension of $12 per month, and the fact of
the party having served as aforesaid shall
be deemed sufficient prime-fool's evidence
that he was in sound health and free from
disease, and instead of his being compelled
to show his saund physical condition, as
under existing pension laws, the govern-
menthaving accepted his service must
show any prior disease if such existed.
An amendment was carried Friday which
extended the period of claim fOr arrear-
ages to October 1st, 1884. This will prove
most popular as it is a just and humane
bill, and remedies most of the hardships
the Pension office has found in the way of
the practical execution of the present.
pension laws. - -

Tim EATON ELEcTonAL aILL.

Mr. Eaton got his important Electoral
bill up in the House, Saturday. but was
crowded aside again by more. pressing
measures of appropriation. It is greatly
to' be hoped that Congress will not adjourn
without the passage of either the Edmonds
or Eaton bill.

RA’I‘IFICA’I‘ION MEETING.

General Hawley hastened back from
the Buckingham unveiling ceremonies at
Hartford last, week, to be. present and
speak at the. Blaine and Logan ratification
meeting here. It is estimated that. fully
ten thousand people were present during
the exercises. and it. is conceded that no
such wild enthusiasm was ever witnessed .
at any similar demonstration ill Washing—
ton. Stands were erected at the. south
front and at the east and west ends of the
City Hall building, from which speeches
were being simultaneously delivered.
General Hawley, Senators Sherman,
Harrison and others deliucred stirring
addresses from the main stand. Senator
Sherman reached a pitch of most unusual
enthusiasm for him, and congratulated
the country and’the party that in the
nomination and sure election of- Blaine
the attention of the nations of the earth
would be called to the existence on the
map of the world of the United States of
America. When the Marine band struck
up the air “Marching through Georgia,"
General Hawley sprang to the front of the
platform and broke forth in singing the
chorus so loud and grandly as to be heard
above all the noise of the band far down
the solid lines of massed humanity. Even
Senator Sherman got so “enthused” by
the overpowering and soul-stirring strains
of General Hawley as to rise up on the
stage, and swing his hat, and join in sing-
ing the lively and inspiring melody. This
apparently irresistible exhibition of un—
controllable enthusiasm on the part of the
normally staid and dignified senator from
Ohio - was recognized and. encouraged
by the wildest cheers and manifestations
of delight on the‘part of the‘vast audience.
The general has sihoebee'n Credited with
having well nigh Wrought a miracle in
thus sweeping John Sherman off his feet
by his flood of enrapturing song. The
democratic Post in reporting the meeting
and conceding its unwanted success,
facetiously remarks that, “cilen John
Sherman so far forgot himself {Is to be-
come enthusiastic."

Saturday night the Grand Army boys
and the Army and Navy clubs honored
the return of “Black Jack" from his visit
to Maine, by paying him the ompliment.
of a grand procession and; serenade.
Lively speeches were made and songs and
music and fireworks filled the air. Gen.
Logan read a short and carefully prepared
speech of cordial thanks to his old com-
rades and the veterans of the war. Many
thrilling anecdotes of Logan’s army ex-
periences were narrated and among them
the following: “ Colonel Hallback, of 3
Kansas, said that at. Belmont when the
troops were drawn up in line of battle. ‘
Colonel Logan sat at the. head of his regi—
ment looking as black as a stack of black
cats on a dark night. The commanding
general rode along and said, ‘Col. Logan,
your regiment has the post“ of honor to—
day.’ ‘I don‘t care a darn where I am.’
said Black Jack, ‘30 I get into this fight.’
He did get into the fight. said (,‘ol. Han-
beck. He tore down the standard of
treason and on the bloody field of Belmont
unfurled in its stead the flag ofjbeauty and

l
over a prcss dcspatcll Saturday, from New E
Haven, purporting to give a record of a i
formidable republican “bolt,” headed by
Professor Sumner of Yale College. We I
shall next expect to hear of a bolt at Nor- l
wich, headed by David C. Welles, lol- i
lowed by another at Lime Rock headed by 4,
the H6u. Wm. H. Barnum. It is to be re.
g‘rcttcd if any sincere and honest republi-
can who voted for Garfield and reveres
his memory can’t support the dead Presi-
dent’s dearest, closest friend and. truest.
ablest councellor. But the human mind is
a queer machine, and we can only sorrow
for any who would go over to the enemy
or seek to sink the grand old republican
ship, because all individual preferences
could not be gratified in the choice of its
captain. But the most formidable oppo-
sition to Blaine and Logan thus far comes
from England and her dependenees, and
as has been already said, it will be just.
like this obstinate Yankee nation to go
and elect them just because of old Eng-
land’s pronounced hostility.
NEW CANAAN rosT orrroa.
The commission of Mrs. Noah W. Hoyt
as postmaster at New Canaan, expired
June 4th. The appointment for various
satisfactory reasons, has now been con.
ferred upon her son—in-law, Mr. Thatcher.
Mr. T. was not a candidate seeking the
ofilce, but on the contrary, when it became
known that it would be more satisfactory
to the P. 0. Department here to have a
man at the head of the office, he would
only accept the responsibilities of the posi-
tion upon the express condition that its
emoluments should under his administra-
tion of it, ensure to Mrs. Hoyt the same
as hitherto. Since the death of that “ no-
blest Roman of them all ” Noah W. Hoyt,
his daughter, Mrs. Bliss, has generously
and most cheerfully devoted herbest ener-
gies, and given hertime to the filial duty of
managing the ofilce for llermothcr’s bene—
fit. This she has also done to the general
satisfaction of its patrons and the P. 0.
Department. The only cOmplaints ever
hoard were the very old and usual ones,
of the office not being fitted up with met-
ropolitan adtilments, and since New
Canaan has attained the dignity of having
become a somewhat popular bed-chamber
for New York summer visitors, her people
naturally think that there should be a lit-
tle more of the glitter of Yale patent letter
boxes, and other city embellishments. As
the general policy of 'the P. 0. Depart-
ment in preferring male postmasters has
not only been complied with, but the in-
terests of Mrs. H. in the office been more
permanently secured, the propriety and
the wisdom of this arrangement cannot be
doubted. The public’s interests will also
be as faithfully conserved and the change
undoubtedly prove universally acceptable
in that pretty village.
PERSONALS.

Senator Hawley has been invited as one
of the speakers at the mousterBlainc and
Logan Ratification Meeting, to be held in
New York, a fortnight hence. Senator
Platt has returned from Connecticut and
was in his seat in the Senate again on Fri—
day. He has been specially invited to
attend the 14th and 17th Ct.Vol.’s memor-
ial services at Gettysburg, July lst.

Mrs. Representative Mitchell, who has
the past season by her genial manners and
afiablc courtesies made herself a marked
favorite in the Official society of Washing-
ton, lles. closed her house here and with
her little son left for their New Haven
home. Mrs. M. will assist her mother—in-
law in doing the honors and dispensing
the llospitalities of the Mitchell mansion

wards, Esq., clerk of Senator Hawley’s
Committee of the Senate, is spending the
summer with her mother, Mrs. H. M.
Valentine, at Darien. Mr. Edwards made
a flying visit there and back, a few days
ago, and will pass the season in Darien
after the adjournment.

Maj. Ben. Pardee, Wm. W. Converse
and A. W. Hooper, of New Haven; Schuy-
ler Merritt, of Stamford, and Edgar ’1‘.

The County Fair.

The premium lists for the annual fair
of the Fairfield County Agricultural
Society are now being distributed, and
we find several new features which will
undoubtedly add much to the exhibits
and interest of the fair. On' Monday,
Sept. 3011i all alticles for competition
.exeept’ live stock. and horses entered for
speed premiums are to ‘bc entered on the
secretary‘s books. On Tuesday, Oct. 1st
exhibition .Of geldings, mares, stallions
and road horses. Gentlemen‘s single road
horses owned in the. county to be driven
to road wagon. First premium, harness,
value of $60; second, blanket and hood,
value $25; third, whip, value $315. The
hall will be open for exhibition this day.
On Wednesday, cattle, sheep, swine,
poultry and draft horses, and two purses
of $200 for 2.50 and 3 minutes horses
each. There will also he an exhibition of
gentleman’s horses, for which discretion-
ary premiums will be awarded. On this
day school children of the county will be
admitted at 10 cents each. _

On Thursday the first race. will be the
slow running one, and the last horse in
takes the first premium. These laces
afford much amusement, as the riders
have to ride some other horse than their
own, and of course, will endeavor to be"
first in with the nag they are riding.
There is to be two trotting purses of $200
each for 2:27 and 3 minute. horses and a
running race with a purse of $250.

On . Friday ladies and gentlemen’s
equestrianism at 11:00 a. m., after which
will be two $200 purses for 2:30 and 2:40
horses, and a purse of $250 for a running
race. A large number of horses, are
already promised both for trotting and
running. One of the prominent new
features is the liberal premiums offered
for best exhibit of farm products by
organized Farmer’s Clubs of this county,
and also for the largest and best exhibit
of farm products grown and produced by
. exhibitor. These two new chases will, it
is expected, bring an immense show of
farm products. It certainly looks as if
the fair would be a great success, and it
will be, if all interested in its success do
their duty, as well as the directors have
theirs in making such judicious and
liberal offers in the premium list. Already
a large number of applications have made
made for exhibition space in the hall.

Free-trade England is a happyphlce. to
live in, and no mistake; last year the tax
upon becr yielded £500,000, that on spirits
£18,500,000, the customs dues £20,000,000,
most of which was from tobacco, stamps
paid 433,000,000, telegrams £1,750,000, the
income tax £11,000,000, and the house tax
£2,000,000, while tlletaxes on all the land
in the kingdom only amounted to a little
over £1,000,000. The, aggregate of these
taxes was only 328 millions dollars. and
several sources of supply are yet to be
heard from. Free-trade has not relieved
any one over there from taxation, up to

date.

Current Comment.
Harper’x Weekly sustained President

i Garfield. both before and after his election.

It commented on his course in calling Mr.

Blaine to thellead of the cabinet in these

words: “Mr. Blaine is an alert, brilliant,

versatile public man. with a larger per-

sonal following than any other republican

leader. * * * As secretary of state,

his course will be regarded not only

without prejudice, but with the most

friendly anticipation." In November,

1881, Mr. Curtis commented on Mr.

Blainc‘s foreign policy, as indicated by

the secretary‘s letter on the Panama canal:

“Thelctter states with admirable frank—

ness and firmness the traditional and

reasonable policy of this coilntry, and it

will be universally sustained * * * _
The letter is a temperate and dignified

document, stating our position with

blended spirit and courtesy and decision. ‘
* * * It is another evidence of the

ability with which Mr. Blaine has man-

aged the department committed to him.

He has what might be called the

American instinct, an essential quality ill

our foreign secretary.“ These. phrases

must read a little oddly to Mr. George.
William Curtis, in these days when he is
ransacking heav— we. mean the inferior
regions, for reasons to justify him in
bolting this same leader.—Norm'ch Bulle—
Dr. Ecob, of Albany, a former pastor of
Mr. Blaine, has written a letter speaking
of him in terms of the highest appreciation
and esteem. Rev. Dr. Webb, also a form-
er pastor of the republican candidate,
speaks warmly in praise of Mr. Blaine
and his family, He says: “I baptised
his children. I buried his dead. Between
us there grew up an undisguised confi-
dence, and a. cordial intercourse." And
he adds: “My confidence in this much—
abused man is neither shaken 'nor abated.
And I believe that the attacks made upon
him are as unfounded as they are ma-
licious." Rev. Dr. Theodore D. Woolscy,
Dr. Newman Smyth, Dr. William M.
Barbour, Dr. Richard M. Storrs, of
Brooklyn, Dr. Armitagc, of the leading
Baptist church in New York, are out~
spoken in their support of Mr. Blaine.
With the endorsement of such men, and
hosts of other clergyman of like distinc-
tion, Mr. Blaine will manage to get along
even without the happiness of Henry
Ward Beecher's approval .—Adoocale.

The attempt to scare the country out
of voting for Blaine because ‘he is not a
safe man" is the feeblest twaddle. Why
the effect of his nomination has already
been felt in the stock and grain markets,
in stiffening prices and giving animation
to business. The country will be as safe
under Blaine‘s adminisrtation as it was
under Andrew Jackson’s or General
Grant’s. The people want a strong man
at the wheel, and they will have one in
Blaine.-ICincinnati Commercial Gazette.

We say that no republican who honored
President Garfield in life or reveres him in
death will oppose the selection of his
bosom friend and adviser to succeed to
the chair he left vacant. We believe it
was with the thought of this succession ill
mind that Mr. Blaine was appointed at
the head of President Garfield’s cabinet,
and we. have reason for such a belief.
Garfield is dead, but his hopes and

expectations live, and they will be
realized—Albany Journal.

The Democratic Position.
“Free commerce with all nations.”—
' Democratic Congressional Caucus, 1800.

“Resolved, That the fruits of the great
politicalltrinmph of 1844 have fulfilled the
hopes of the democracy of the Union in
the noble impulse given .to the cause of
free trade. by the repeal of the tariff of
1842.—Denmmtio National Platform.
1848.

“Renewed, That the time has come for
the people of the United States to declare
themselves in favor of free seas and
progressive free trade throughout the
world, and, by solemn manifestations, to
place their moral influence at the side of
their successful cxamplc.”——Demoerqtic
National Platform of 1856, Rmfirmed in
1860.

“We denounce the present tariff, levied
upon nearly four thousand articles, as a

false pretence. It yields a dwindling, not
a yearly rising revenue. We demand
that all custom-house taxation shall be
only for irevenue.”——Demoeratic National
Platform, 1876.

“Home rule, honest money, consisting
of gold, silver and paper convertible on
demand, and a tariff for revenue only.”—
Demooratic National Platform, 1880.

No half fares. In view of the low rate nostap
over checks can be iven. Partiescanj obtain
tickets good for ten aye by paying $10.60.

Hotel rates at Gettysburg are $2.00 per day,
and boarding houses will furnish accommoda-
tions at less. The train will leave on the re-
turn frip from Gett sburg at 9 o’clock on the
morning of the 3d 0 July, reaching New York
at about 4 o’clock p. In. Excursionists will
thus have ample time to visit all parts of the
battle-field.

It is expected that the 27th Pennsylvania
association (Steinwehr’s Division) will join us
at Philadelphia. They are goin to place their
tablet upon East Cemetery ill. Cor ral
Skelly Post, G. A. It, of Gettysburg, ave
accepted an invitation tojoin us in our cere-
monies. Excursion trains will run into Gettys-
burg from adjoining towns, and the present
indicanons are that there will be a large atten-

dance on this occasion. .
Your committee would suggest t all
veterans wear soft black hate or millta caps,

and wear their army badges displayed on their
coats. Ribbon badges to be worn on coat and
corps badge to be worn on hat or cap will be
furnished to members of the 17th Connecticut
association at the train. Grand Arm uniforms
em.

The hi to Gettysburg is through a splendid
portion 0 'the state of Pennsylvania, and over
the finest road in the country. Five hundred
miles of railroad travel with an opportunity to
view the greatest battle-field and lrning point
of the late war at an unprecedented low ex-
pense. Members of other regiments and citi-

they will elgpy the same advantages as the '
members of eaaeocistion.

Special cars for ladies and these accom any-
ing them. and arrangements will be ma e to
provide lunch for those who desire. An
ofilcial of the Pennsylvania Railroad company
will accompan the excure.L

Comradeso the 17th Regiment, this is on
occasion which will never .occur again, and
you are earnestly requested to make extra 3
efforts to sceompsn no. on this trip to the l
graves ofthose nob e patriots by whoseq side
you ‘msrched and fought for three l'on years,
and join us in dedicating to thelr'sscre 'mem-
cry a token of their remenfirance by their
comrades. On behalf of committee,

A Good Month’s werk. :
g A missionary of the .. American Sunday
School Union? in_,Ge’orgis and Florida
writes of a month devOtgd tohis mission in
Taylor‘ county, Florida: . “There had
been sooty. three Sunday schools in the
county previous to thisrmy canvass. I
left it with sixteen schools, fifteen of'
which I organized—thirteen during the ‘
month, with 98 teachers and 489 scholars.

I I distributed 34 bibles, 36 testaments, and

$125 in supplies, delivering 19 sermons
and 12 addresses, and visited 44 families.

The graduating sixtei'cises of the Over
River school were he‘ld’in the school house ‘
Friday afternoon. The graduates were.
Misses Annie L. Evenilen, Mamie Partric,
Jennie Fitch, Etta Benedict and Myron
Byington.~‘ The exercises were opened by
an address of welcome by Victor Selleck.
Following were the essays of the gradu-
ates :—

- The essays were :3 repared and well

board were present and united in
praising the excellence of the exercises.
Speeches were made by Messrs. Millard,
