NORWALK GAZETlF.
Tuesday, Jan. 5, 1886.
. The “Gazette’s” 86th Birthday.
With this issue the GAZETTE starts out
on the glad New Year, and also launches
into the 86th year of its existence.
Eighty-six years! What a medley of
life’s vicissitudes, is chronicled in all
these volumes! What a ponderous com-
pilation of historical mimetic! What a
multitude of vital and thrilling epochs
in the world’s history have been reflected
in this far-reaching, ever changing kaleid-
oscope ! What an unlimited record of
local events is embalmed in this tireless
messenger of sadnesses and gladnesses, of
fortune’s frowns and fortune’s smiles, of
man’s benevolence, and man’s inhumanity
to man!
The old GAZETTE has chronicled in cur-
rent issues events in the administration of
' cverypresident of the United States, (x-
cepting that eminently “first,” George
Washington. It has seen the nation’s
earliest statesmen and patriots laid to rest
whose thrilling utterances and valiant
deeds were history even to generations
past, but whose memoriesare immortally
enshrined in the great heart of a mighty
people. It has heard the clash and wit
nessed the desolation of “grim visaged
war-S” that have shaken the world and
changed the destinies of empires. It is a
part of history itself.
. And while it comes up smiling on this,
its eighty-sixth birthday, hale and hearty,
and presents to all creation, “with malice
towards none, with charity for all,”‘the,
compliments of the season, a Happy
Happy New Year, it is cheered with the
assurance that many old and tried friends
will, with sincerity, say amen to the wish
that though “men may come, and men
may go,” the old GAZEITE may “go on
forever.”

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, January 4, 1886..
DEAR anETTE:—-Everything here now
awaits with especial interest the recon-
vcning of congress tO-morrow,
The New Year’s festival was far more
than ordinarily enjoyed, principally on
account of the superb Indian simmer sun-
shine and warmth of the day. At the
White House‘from 12 to 2 p. m., there
was the usual New Year’s jam, and the
“Jeffersonian simplicity” of the present
administration was made conspicuous by
the splendors of army, navy and . diplo-
matic gold lace and feathers, never seen
at the executive mansion before. The
street gamins hung to the iron fencesand
porticos of the edifice like swarming bees,
as intensely interested in the uniformed
callers on the president as though .they
had been circus performers.
_ TEMPERANCE.
We presume there was less visible
effects of intemperance in this city on New
Year’s day than in anycity of equal size in
the cofintry, although the zealous bands
of temperance workers here. deplore the
licensing of seventy more liquor shops for
this year than the last. Representative
Dinglcy, of Maine, introduced a bill in the
house just prior to adjournment requiring
a very high license law. Many earnest
friends of total abstinence are of opinion
that a penalty license of not less than one
thousand dollars will do more to repress
' the trafiic than an entirely prohibitory law
and they quote the practical results of the
workings of similar enactments in several
of the western states. 0n the other hand
Shnator Blair, of New Hampshire, is now
at work on a temperance bill for the D15-
trict of Columbia, which shall totally out.
law the traffic.
- THE FIRST BOND CALL.
The first call made by this administra-
tion for the redemption of interest bearing
bonds occasions much comment. It is
said that the administration had been
steadily opposed to further reducing the
debt in a hope that revenue taxes might
be reduced. Then, again, for the first
time in yearsthe government is confronted
with a deficiency at the end of the current
year. But the “cry of hard times,” and
the obvious effect of the death of remuner-
ative business, it was feared would have a
disastrous eficct upon the party in power.
As the paying of these bonds is the most
direct mode of getting thc‘moneys, which
accumulate in the treasury, out into gen-
eral circulation among the people,:Secre-‘
tary Manning has ventured to call in ten
millions of three per ccnts. This he hopes
will take the poisdn out of the republican
imputation that while that party was
steadily paying and reducing the national
debt, the new administration was forced
to stop it altogether, and by scattering ten
millions more money into and through
business channels, the cry of “hard times”
may not serve to destroy the administra-
tion in its efforts to perpetuate itself.
ronrnxss IN ENGLAND.
Apaper on the subject of unclaimed
estates in England, prepitred under the
direction of Minister Lowell, by Henry
White, one of the American Secretaries of
Legation, says, “that many are led to
believc‘themselves heirs to vast estates in
Great Britain by designing persons on
both sides of the ocean, who, with a view
of persional gain, insert notices in local
newspapers in the United States to the
effect that a large property left by a per-
son of the same name with that of some
well-known family of the district or of
some exceedingly common name likely
to occur anywhere, such as Smith-or
Jones, or who distribute far and wide
lists of unclaimed estates which do 1191.
exist. Large sums of moncyarc annually
thrown away by the dupes of these
advertisements and fictitious lists, and a
handsome revenue is made by the agents,
as they call themselves, forthe discovery
of lost heirs and the recovery of unclaimed
estates. The modus operandi usually
adopted by these agents is to ask first for
a remittance of £2 or £3 to cover the cost
of copying the will upon which the claim
purports to be based; then a large sum
for the expenses of instituting inquiries;
and at each successive stage more black—
mail is levied, the correspondence being
so cleverly conducted that several years
frequently elapse before the fraud is dis-
covered. None should contributca dol-
' lar to unknown agents, especially towards
any expenses connected with establishing
claims to estates in this country, until
inquiry has been made of counsel here,
first as to the existence of the estate, and
.then as to the chances of its recoveiy. I
am told by reputable solicitors . that not
one claim in a thousand of all those re-
fer-red to them bfihe legation has had any
validity whatever, and very few, during
their long experience of claims from
American, have been successful.
Mr. White describes the results of in-
quiries relating to the “J cnnens estate,” .
to which there were many American
claimants, showing that the property
went to the heirs-atolaw long before
American claimants were ever heard of,
and that the latter never had the shadow
of atitle to it. Moreover. had the title
once been a good one, it would long since
become worthless by the operations of the
statute of' limitations.
“Any attempts therefore,” continues
‘ _ Mr. White, “to recover real estates from
the Crown or individuals after a lapse of
t clve years (which may be extended to
thgty under certain circumstances), and
pars property after a lapse of twenty
years, howeve‘i- valid the claim of the
person making the' attempts may have
been originally, are certain to end in
failure.” _ p
All members, consequently, of the
‘Jennens Association of the United States
of America” may rest assured that their
subscriptions are simply money thrown
away if their object be the recovery of
the Jennens estate. Recently a letter
was received from a member of the
aforesaid Jennens Association, who had
just been notified that a general assess-
l
ment of $5 had been levied for the'year -
ending‘June 30, 1884, and who, before a
payingflthe Same, inquired whether the
legation could furnish any information
regarding the Jennens estate, “said to be
pending before the Court of Chancery in
England.” .
Similar to this case are the “Hedges
estate,” the “Bradford estate,” the "Hyde
estate,” the “Home estate,” and many
others which are described as among “the
ordinary myths by which so many of our
countrymen have been beguiled.”
It will doubtless cause surprise and dis—
appointment to such as these to be in-
formed that the whole amount of money in
the custody of the Court of Chancery at
the present time is about £84,000,000, of
which £83,000,000 belongs to owners who
are known, leaving £1,000,000 only of un-
claimed or dormant funds.
Several years since, the late Gould D.
Jennings, of Norwalk, was deluded into
contributing and collecting of relatives
and others of the family name, several
hundred dollars, which was duly for-
.warded to one of these London attorney
frauds for the positively assured recovery '
of the untold millions left by their wealthy
ancestor; At a later period, other parties
employed the late Wm. Goodwin (our old
and original legislative statistician) to go
to London to personally examine, and see
if there was anything to these reputed
fortunes lying in the Bank of England and
in Chancery. The poor old man very
naturally fell into the hands of these
claimant attorney villains and returned
to New Haven confident of their valid
existence and to prove the faith in him,
he brought over old files of the London
Jim in which were numbcrless adver-
tisements of “Wanted—the heirs” of
Smithor Jones or Brown to receive the
fortunes left them and: waiting their
claim. The guileless old man never once
surmised that these advertisements were
simply the artful lures of these miscreants
to get remittances of money from Ameri-
cans of the usually general movement.
There ought to be a very suddcnfend of
this old swindle. .
THE PRESIDENT MERRY.
Senator Dan Voorhees is credited with
having tickled the president immeasura-
bly by rehearsing a very probable story
which came to him from one of the illicit
distilling districts of North Carolina. It
runs to the effect that a newly appointed
internal revenue inspector was drifting
about his mountainous district when he
unintentionally stumbled upon the ille-
gitimate still of a fellow democrat,‘and
having a wholesome recollection of the
ugly methods these fellows had hitherto
resorted to to suppress republican inform-
ants, was moved to persuasively remark :—
‘ Now Jim, I was up to Washington the
other day and saw Cleveland, and he told
‘ me to say to you this is all right, but as a
favor to him, he would like you to move
this still a little further back in the moun-
talus, where the smoke cannot be seen
from the road.”'
Speaker Carlisle is also credited with
following of Mr. Buck, the Kentuckian.
President- Clcveland was bcguilcd into
giving a foreign mission on the written
endorsements of Senator Beck and
several Kentucky members who afterward
were frank enough to assure the president
they never supposed suchalow cur would
receive any consideration, and they only
signed his papers to get rid of him. The
story on Buck runs thus : “Why, do you
know that Buck asked for the return of
the money that he gave the Democratic
executive committee of his county pending
Cleveland’s election ? No! Well, he did,
and the chairman himself so told me. It
happened this way: Buck’s father was
asked to contribute to the campaign fund
and gave seventy-five cents. Then Buck
was approached and gave fifty cents. A
little while later the young Buck excited! y
approached the committeeman to whom"
he had given his money and demanded
its return, saying, ‘I didn't know pa had
already subscribed.’ The chairman of the
Kentucky Democratic Committee told me
this.” .

The Pittsfield Sim almanac for 1880 is
a beauty. Its typographical appearance
is an eloquent tribute to Superintendent
Mink’s skill as an artistic printer. And.
its contents are the brilliant productions
of brilliant Editor “Jim” Harding. The
chronological reminiscences of 1885 are
“simply immense.” They start off so:-
“Friday, Jan. 1st, had a mighty good
time." Saturday, 2, “Resolved to jointhe
Sons of Temperancc”——an inevitable result
of aj‘mighty good time.” It isapparcnt,
though, that Jim made this resolve just
one day to late, for his chronology is one
day behindhand all through the year if
his ingenious Sunday entries are to be re-
lied npon. The first Sunday it was “too
cold to go to church; went to Dalton.”
Again, “Rain, rain; umbrella lost,” and
again, “new boots squeak; won’t make a
show of myself,” etc. Jim’s readers will
forgive him for staying home from church
