Dim: G'Azsm :—Fiv’e mbntbs‘, of the
first session: of ' the fortyu'linth congress
has nowxpassed, and [perhaps the fairest
6fificm.npon.~it:is3that ithas not, done all
the mischief it was possible. The demo-
cratic majority, of course, organized the
hOuse, and protectionist democrats like
our own Mr. Seymour voted a rank free
trader into the speaker’s chair and en-
dowed him with the power to make up
anti-protection committees and, of course,
he did it. The result is the Morrison bill
to reduce protection on American made
goods, which now menaces the business
and labor industries of the country. In
this bill it is thought the cunning hand Of
Hon. David A. Wells, of Connecticut, ap-
pea he most serious. assault in that
bill is the attack on the American farmers‘
sheep industry in its provision for free
wool. The courage of the democrats is
filly illustrated in this attempted fight
with sheep. And is not the protectionist
democrat, who votes for a free-trade rep-
resentative of his party, a far more incon-
sistent and ridiculous figure than the by
them as well as others, much derided
mugwump? '
In the discussion in the senate last week,
on the motion to appropriate $800,000 for
the support of American steamer lines to
and from South American ports, Senator
Beck said that not only was he opposed
to this system of extending our trade and
commerce, but that the present adminis-
tration was also hostile to it. Messrs.
Fry and Halo, of Maine, made a vigorous
protest against this opposition to our best
mode of disposing of our surplus products
and in extending trade in American made
commodities, andannounced that the re-
publican. party would in the future, as in
the past, he found steadfastly battling for
the interests of American labor and trade,
whatever course the democratic party and
a democratic administration might see fit
to pursue. It has occasioned great sur-
prise that President Cleveland has taken
himself down from his neutral tariff fence
and been trying to influence the votes of
protectionist members in support of the
Morrison bill. ~
_ JEFF DAVIS. .
Just now the Jeff Davis hippodrome is
exciting both the loyal and disloyal ele-
ments of soeiety here, but next week
Barnum’s greatest show on earth will ex-
hibit at the capital, and the present local
excitement about Davis will be absorbed
in that really more interesting and import-
ant event. Though the evil spirit of. the‘
defunct rebellion is kindled afiame by
this arch traitor’s reappearance the fires of
‘loyaltyand love of liberty will only glow
all the brighter for the unseemly and in-
decent exhibition, and _ the. words of Lin-
coln and of Garfield will only be treasured
with deeper reverence and haveran added
emphasis. Said Lincoln at Gettysburg:—
“Let us highly resolve that these dead
shall not have. died in vain; that this na-
tion under God shall have a new birth of
freedom, and the government by the
people and for the people shall not perish
from the earth.” Said his co-martyr Gar-
field :—“The war for the Union was eter-
nally right, and the war of the rebellion
was eternally wrong”. These words will
live as an inspiration, in the hearts of a
great, united and happy people, when the
name and ill fame of Davis shall rot as
soon as will his bones from out of the
sight and memory of man.
SECRETARY wxrrNav THANKED.
The employment committee of the Grand
Army of the Republic, Department of the
Potomac, at their last meeting, unani-
mously instructed their chairman and
secretary to make due acknowledgment
to the secretary of the navy of its appre-
ciation of the disposition manifested by
him to give preference in appointments
and for retention to those who served
faithfully in the army or navy of the
Union during the late war.
Up to date no such thanks have been
tendered the “mental and physical wrec ”
who presides over the destinies of our
grand army of pension deserving and pen-
sion drawing veterans.
' THE TRADE DOLLAR.
The proposed redemption of the trade
dollar was considered by the house com-
mittee on coinage, weights and measures.
A proposition, submitted as an amend-
ment to the bill, providing that the
amount redeemed should come out of the
monthly bullion purchase was rejected by
a vote of 6 to 3. Representative Seymour
voted in favor of it: The bill is to be fur-
ther considered.
THE CONGRHGATIONAL CONFERENCE.
The annual sessions of the association
to which the Congregational churches in
this city and vicinity belong was held
here last week. Rev. Mr. Everest
took an active part in these exercises.
Mrs. Everest visited Washington with her
husband and spoke with en thusiastic
fondness of her brief but delightful resi-
deuce in Norwalk.
HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION.
The American Historical association
held its third annual convention here last
week. The venerable historian George
Bancroft, its president, declined a re-
election. Professor Alcxander Johnston,
of Princeton, formerly of Norwalk, and
Professor Moses Coit Tyler, of Connecti-
cut, were among the delegates.

The annual convention of the American
Surgical association was also held here
last week at the National Medical Museum
building.
INCORRECT.
A Bridgeport correspondent of the New
York Herald says that it is rumored that
Representative Seymour will not seek are-
. nomination to Congress, but is looking to-
wards the Gubernatorial chair.
Mr. Seymour personally assured your
correspondent this evening, that he would
rather be right here where he is than to be
governor.

In an examination _of a correspondent
named Hill, to whom was traced the N,
Y. World’s first expose of the Pan Electric '
scandal, he was asked if he did not go to
Indiana in the election of 1880, as a clerk
to the, Republican committee and sell all
their secrets to Wm. H. Barnum for $750,
and declined to answer.
Nonwanx’s NEW POST OFFICE.
Representative Seymour _ is engineering
the early establishment of a new postofiice
at East N orwalk, so here is another chance.

The republicans in the late presidential
contest predicted that Jeff Davis and all
his hordes would be filled with rejoicing
if Blaine was defeated. The past week
has fully verified all these predictions.
The whole spirit of Davis’ utterances in
his triumphal march to Atlanta, are exu]-
tations over the coming again into power
of the democratic party. The rebel cause
is not lost, this ’arch traitor avers, and idle
and harmless 'thougll'liis ravings may be!
they evince the terribly disloyal temper of
his partisans. Th'e ' following rebuke of
Gov. Foraker, at the OhiO'Eneampment of
the G. A. R., though severe, will be justi-
fied in the minds of every liberty loving~
patriotz— . ' " '6 ’
“Whatever others may represent, this
man, Jeff. Davis,» who talks about liberty,
represents onlyhuman slavery, the degra.
dation of labor, the treason of secession
and rebellion, the horrors and infamies of '
Libby and Andersonville; all, in short,
that is malicious, vicious and damnable in
American history. To talk of him as an

with Washington in history, , is to insult

The Sunday Capital gives a cock and 1
bull story from the pen of Eugene Field,
giving the reasons why Miss Kate Field
remains single. As a romancing work of
fiction it surpasses many of the matrimoni-
al stories told about Senator Jones and
President Cleveland.
Miss Kate Field was given a compli-
mentary dinner Friday evening by Senator
and Mas. Payne. ' She was also an atten-
tive listener at the trial of the Mormon
question before the supreme court last
week, and at the sessions of the Judiciary
committee convened to examine several
Mormon and anti-Mormon representatives
from Salt Lake City. A delegation of
four Mormon women in the city were also
present. ,-

The panorama of the battle of Manasses

As Ever, . B.
The Recital.
At Prof. Gibson's aftel'hOon organ reci-
tal yesterday in the First Congregational
Church, the galleries were filled and the
side seats contained quite a number of de-
lighted auditors. The recital was one of
the most enjoyable of the series, and, be—
ing one of the last, those in attendance
who missed the previous ones feel that
' they are destined to “know delight but by
her parting smile." The organ selections,
from the first number, “Festival March”,
in D, to the last, Mendelssohn’s overture,
“Ruy Bias,” Delmar’s arrangement, were
executed with exquisite skill and charm-
ing effect, Mr. Gibson’s own arrangement
of Gottschalk’s “Ricordatc” being one of
the gems and warmly applauded. Rhein-
berger’s Sonata in F sharp, three move-
ments, gave a splendid opportunity,whlch
was fully improved, to bring out at once
the capabilities of the instrument and the
manipulatory skill Of the performer. Both
Mrs. Huntington’s solos, “Cavatina” and
a “Bedouin Love Song,” were heartily en-
cored. Her voice is of a pleasing quality,
flexible, cultivated and of remarkable
compass, and it is to be hoped that our
music lovers will soon again have the
pleasure of listening to her.
A large percentage of the audience
came from out of town, the hour set, 2.30,
having been chosen especially for the con
venience of these. Among those from up
the Danbury & Norwalk road were Misses
Lizzie and Minnie Barber, Mr. W. F.
Sherman and Mr. Frank Shepard, of
Bethel, and the following from Danbury:
Misses Isabella Fayerwcather, Mary Hol-
lister, Nellie Rogers, Minnie Smith, B.
McLaughlin, Hattie Hoyt, the Misses
Meeker, Miss Boland and Miss Osmund.

The ex-members of the Connecticut
legislature will have a reunion at Hartford
to-morrow. Special excursion rates have
been arranged on the railroads entering
Hartford, and the attendance will un-
doubtedly be large and the reunion a
memorable one. The old state house,
where the general assembly deliberated
from 1796 to 1878, will'be thrown Open
during the day. The general reception
will take place at 10:30 a. m. At .11 the

nether Hubbard Prohibited.
The town of Burlington, N. J ., has just
undergone a violent spasm :of holy horror.
A respectable young lady appeared on the
street dressed in' a “Mother Hubbard,”
which so outraged the puritanical citizens’
sense of propriety, that they followed her
through/the streets insulting and pclting
her with missiles and] frightening her so
that she sought refugé in a drug store,
and the chief of police was’sent for to
escort her to her home, where she has
since been seriously ill with nervous pros-
tration. The next day the mayor issued a
Mother Hubbards on the street, excepting
under certain restrictions. There would
seem to be the usual measure of consist-
ency in this freak of public sentiment re-
garding dress; the usual proclivity to
“strain at a gnat and swallow a camel.”
Undoubtedly these real good people of
Burlington, N. J ., on whom the sight of a
Mother Hubbard as the same eflect as a red
blanket on a mad bull, bestow the smile of
their , approval upon the tight—fitting,
fashionable dress, out so low in the neck
that the .collar might be buttoned onto
the wish-bone. And yet the distinction
hinges On the question of “propriety.”
