But those who un- derstand all the facts think the majority report really more damaging than that of the minority. Honest and fair minded Democratic congressman do not hesitate to pronounce the action of the attorney- general and his associates in the pan electric scheme as grossly improper and inexcusable. There certainly was nothing in the whole Credit Mobilier matter as reprehensible as this admitted scheme to defraud. CIVIL salmon A sun. It is well known that there is no honest intent on the part of the President, or of any of his appointing subordinates, to pay the least candid respect to the civil ser- vice laws, but on the contrary a fixed and settled purpose to evade it in every pos- sible way so as to displace competent and deserving republicans with democrats. In a speech in the Senate last week Mr. Hoar said: “The President had in fifteen months nominated successors to 2,078 civil ofiicers. There were left 1,306 upon whom time or the ax of the Presidential headsman were to do their work. He resumed that by the end of the Presi ent’s term there would not be twenty Republicans left in office in the United States whom he could et at where he had the wer under the aw to give the places to emocrats. Yet the Senate of the entire number had al- ready confirmed 1,749 and rejected but sixteen. He could not find that the Presi- dent had kept or had even attempted to keep the pledges made before and after his election. 11 a few localities where the Democrats need the votes of the civil ser- vice reformers, slight concessions had been made to this “sentiment” while the doctrine _“to the victors belong the spoils” was in force for the rest of the country. 0f the 3,600‘civil officers, of whom the President has :the appointment, ho had already nominated successors for more than 2,000 and the ax was constantly fall- ing upon the necks of worthy and faithful ' public servants for no other reason than that theywere Republicans, and that he wanted their places for Democrats.” Certainly some of the recent changes of 'soldiers’ widows and the humbler employee in the departments have been more bru— tally repulsive than the most outrageous exhibitions of the “spoils system” ever seen before this “reform” era humped its hypocriticalback up before the ,eyes of a disgusted people. One of the conspicuous decapitations in this line was that of the nurse matron, who.at the time of Gar- field’s murder had the care of his young children.::After thePrcsident’s death some one got this ladya place on the _ laborers’ roll of the Pension office, but her place was wanted for a stalwart democrat from one 'of the rebel states and she was dis- missed forthe scion of disloyalty. . mom: varoas. . Several more vetoes voted old soldiers and their widows have come up from the White House. The President’s pretense is that-he is thus protecting the treasury. Does he reflect there would have been no‘ Union treasury to protect save for the ser vice, - sufferings and wounds of such as these and that the appropriations. for the President’s 1 flower conservatories and grounds, will aggregate more than these. pension bills to say nothing of 829,000 askedl‘for new furniture for the White House. He has however, with the most "cheerfuliaiacrity signed the bill for the 7res't'orat-16n‘of Fitz John Porter to a $3,000 ‘per' arinuin‘placc'on the retired list of the ’nrr‘ny' rélls,but he could not- approve the bill granting $50 per month, or $600 a year to the sick and destitute widow of Gen.

ANorwalkInvontion. An ingenious and simple device is the invention for the propulsion of canal-boats conceived and patented by Mr. Emmett R. Austin. of this town, a working model of i which 'may be seen at his foundry on Brook street. The invention, working size, will consist of a substantial box about eight feet long by five feet wide and a foot deep, the bottom being of wrought iron, and having no top. This is to be placed under the bottom of the boat, near the stern, open side down. At either end a shaft runs across with a pulley on each side over which run two endless double- jointed chains to which are attached the blades or paddles, so adjusted as to be in position to “draw” on the under motion and “cut” the water on the upper. These paddles will be operated by an engine on the deck connecting by a belt with a pul- ley wheel at the outside of the paddle box. The blades will be five feet long by 14 inches wide, and when driven by an en- gine: of 20 horse-power with a 25-horse- power boiler, Mr. Austin thinks will pro. pol a canal beat at double the speed now obtained by the use of horses and at a cost of loss than one-half the present ex- pense. The cost of horse towage is from 25 to 35 cents per mile; whereas this con- trivauce, in the opinion of the inventor, would do the work for not to exceed 12 cents. Mr. Austin first gave his attention to_ this subject about fifteen years ago. It is said that during Governor Tildon’s term, the state of New York made an offer of $100,000 for the production of a scheme of canal boat propulsion that would excel horse power, the points of superiority to be greater speed and lower expense. This odor, however, has expired, but Mr. Austin has been assured by the canal board of trade that when he shall have demon. strated the practicability of his invention a special appropriation can be secured without difficulty. He worked out his plans at odd spells, mostly nights, and in 1875 got a patent on his invention, having first attached a small model with blades only 5x2§ inches to a row boat, and tried it experimentally on the creek with results of amost satisfactorynature. Sincetaking out his patent Mr. Austin has done com- paratively nothing in the way of improv- ing or perfecting the article. until quite recently, when he again brought it out, and he is now preparing for another ex- periment with his model, to be witnessed by expert engineers and mathematicians with a view to the perfection of the details. The Austin invention has been pro- nounced by practical canal men to be cor- rect in theory and likely to be sucCessful in operation. Other methods of steam propulsion are failures when applied to canal boats. Side wheel paddles are on- tirely impracticable owing to the fact that there is no room for them between the sides of the boat and the walls of the canal. Stern screw propellers find their objection in their inability to move a boat backward or stop quickly as is sometimes necessary in approaching a canal “ lock.” They also are objectionable from the fact that the violent “swash” washes and damages the canal banks, a difilculty which Mr, Austin’s machine obviates by having a steady draw in one direction, and that in exactly the centre of the ditch. Mr. Austin’s plan for the production of his motbr when he is ready to put it into use is, instead of forming a joint stock com any, to place 1,000 subscriptions at 85. each, for which he will ‘ give his notes for 810. payable in five years, which .is equivalent to an annual interest of 20 per cent., subscribers be secured by mort- ga es on the patents and property. ter the .next experiment, which will occur soon, the w rk of organising a plan for vigorous operation will be at once un- dertaken and the fate of the invention will. soon afterwards be determined. ——————o+v——-——— Our Contemporaries. The Litchfieid Enquirer seems to have been improved by its late fiery experience. Since it was burned out it looks better than ever. Our vivacious contemporary, the Win— sted Press of last week, in its announce. ment of the attractions for the 4th, includ- ed “a public thunder shower at 4 p. m. to which all will be invited by attractive na- ture and a smiling morning sky.” Bro. Pinney deduced his prophecy from past events, and got left. New will this wick. ed man mope in corybantic disappoint- ment, or will he accept it as a point, vouchsafed through the irony of fate, in support of his argument that prophets cannot prophesy ? The Waterbury American has an em. cient correspondent in Winsted, who re- ports that a recent clap of thunder knock- a horse “fiat upon the ground,” and that the horse was so frightened that “he cried like a child," and the occupants of a house near by “went to the door with a light thinking a child was crying.” The Canaan ‘ News, in its last week’s issue, announced itself “sweet sixteen ” Its youth has been prosperous, and its prosperity well deserved, for it is a bright and wholesome local paper. We sincerely trust it will never die, and hope Brother Beckley will edit it forever. ' The New Haven Palladium and the Journal and Courier publishers have raised the subscription price of those papers, ‘which were lowered two years ago. They announce that experiments have proven that former prices, 85. a year and 2 cents a COPY. are too low for papers of their size and quality. , “40.5—— A Catastrophe oftho 4th. Among the 4th of July casualties we have to record, is the involuntary immer— sion of 'our‘ esteemed fellow‘ townsman, Mr. A. H. Camp. He had passedtho day with his family and a few friends on Tav- ern Island, and the party were returning in a sail boat which had a small skid in tow._ Mr. Camp thought to vary the “even tenor” of the voyage by stepping from the sailboat into the skid and being towed to shore. Accordingly he took his bearings and stepped jauntily onto the prow of the skiff—but alas for the futility of human calculations on the 4th of J uly! the boat tilted, Mr. C’s. arms sawed the air wildly in a vain eflort to preserve his equilibrium. Despite. his grand hailing - sign; despite the willingness of friends powerless to save, he toppled. over, and with a dull, sickening thud 175 pounds of undignified dignity disappeared from mor- tal view in a thousand feet of briny deep. The “even tenor” of the trip was varied. However, as truth crushed to earth rises again, so Mr. Camp, though submerged, soon floated, and willing hands applied the strong grip and quickly raised him from a sea level to a dripping perpendic- ular. When shore was reached the ad- venturous diver was wrung out, and reached home but little the worse for hav- Episcopal faith, had taken this means of demonstrating his leaning ' towards the Baptist doctrine. This seems hardly probable, however, as it is whispemd that just as he struck the water he proved his “the ruling passion" strong in salt water, by gasping, “Good Lord deliver us !" - ‘ At Grant's Tomb.

An event has taken place in this city so remarkable in its nature that I venture when it swelled to a afiair is Mr. Jere Smith, son of Cornelius B. Smith, of the State Insurance depart- ment at Albany, who is well known, stands very high and is in every way roll- ing interview with him, which Itrans- In the early foreuoon the trusting it may prove valuable to your readers: “During last year,” he said, “I could not understand what was the trouble with me. I had always felt strong and hearty but I gradually became aware that some- thing was undermin’ng me.- I first began to feel drowsy and then in a day or two I would beuunaturally wide awake. Strange pains would come in different parts of my body. My head did not ache much but it usually felt heav . . I was sometimes hated food, while my sleep was very irregular. I could not understand what it meant but thought .it might pass away after a time; but it did not .I don’t see how I could have been so blind but I sup ose I was like most people who are troub ed in the same way, and thought it was nothiu dan erous. After awhile I noticed a pecu iar co or and odor about the fluids I was passing; that they were dark at times and very i ht at others. Finallly I began to gain fies but I knew it was unnatural and that I was bloating. This frightened me and 1 con- sulted physicians who very kind in their attentions but did not help me in the least. My father then went with me to New York and we consulted with the eminent Dr. Keyes, who treated me for several weeks. At that time my condition was horrible. I was bloated from head to foot, it was al- most impossible to breathe and 1 could not sleep. In several places on my body the skin burst open, so great was the pres- sure from within, The a any I endured was indescribable. Then 0 doctor told me my case was}hopeless,that I had Bright’s disease in its worst form and that I had only a few do a to live.” “Fortunate 31 had a friend who.accom- panied me an would not see me die with- out a struggle. He did not ur e, he so- u‘sfcdon my making one more e ort, and I did so. I noticed an improvement at once; in four days the swelling greatl decreased and the" pain wholly cease . I continued to improve and am a well man to-day and owe my life to the marvellous effects of that wonderful preparation, Hunt’s Remedy. I believe this is the greatest medicipe that was ever discover- ed by man, and I only wish the whole worldlmight know what it has done for me.” “I know there are thousands of people troubled as I was and in just as great dan- ger, but they do not realize it. Bright’s disease is the most deceptive, the most horrible malady the world has ever known. It has no settled s mptoms, but assumes every imaginable orm. I had no idea it was Bright’s disease that was undermining me unti I began to bloat. and now that am well and enjoying life I feel like tell- ing everybody about my miraculous escape. Is it any wonder this town is aroused over my resurrection ?” . Such is the account of probable as nar- row an escape from death as was ever known. The first symptons whlcli Mr. Smith felt were such as many others feel but do not consider worth noticing. It is plain, however, that the early indications of a dangerous disease cannot be tr'lfied with, but must be met promptly, and by such a remedy as has been proven to be indeed a friend in time of need. Probably the as long as fish poles, that wriggled their way skyward with a roar and a hiss, climbing up into the blue so high that the stars dodged and even the moon slunk down and hid behind the trees; Roman candles and pin-wheels, and flower pots and mines filled the air with colored fire balls, wriggling snakes of flame, fiery bal- loons and showers of dazzling lights that set the heavens afire with their bright kaleidoscopic changes and elicited innu merable “o-o-h’s i” and “a.a-h’s !” from the spellbound spectators. It was a glittering wind-up for the biggest day in all America. ——————¢o->———— Appreciated Kindness. Mention was made in our last issue of a party of New York Sunday school picnick. are who had the bad luck to miss the re- turn boat from Roton Point on Saturday, June 20th, and who were provided with passage home by rail, by contributions so- licited by Mr. George S. Grumman, man- ager of the Point. How well Mr. Gram. man’s kindly interest was appreciated is shown by the following letter received last week by the Superintendent of the Sunday school of which the walfs were members :— Nsw Your, June 30, 1886.

The salvation army is making progress. It is certainly getting notoriety, and noto- riety is the glory of the cheap element, of which the “army" is principallycomposod. During the salvation convention held in Hartford last Wednesday one of athe he captains took a couple of the she captains into the back room of a saloon and order- ed three lemonades, giving the wink to the waiter for a “stick” in one of them. The waiter gave the tinctured beverage to one of the sisters by mistake, which set her to singing, while the brother looked - daggers at the waiter for getting the glasses mixed. A Winstod captain, Charles Stiles, is ac- cused of a worse “imprudence,” however, and one which bids fair to remove him for a season from the missionary field. He went to the house of a sister salvationist some days ago, but found the sister out. Her little daughter, Bessie Shepard, 11 years old, was alone in the house. Ac- cording to the girl’s story. “he called her into a room and attempted to take liberties with her. She resisted and he threw her down and endeavored to assault her. The girl screamed for help and after vainly eudeavoring to accomplish his purpose, Stiles fled.” , The girl told her mother, who, beingasalvationist, resolved to make no trouble for the erring brother, but oth- er members got hold of the afiair, and Stiles felt himself called upon to forgive himself before the army, so he got up in the meeting, said the Lord had punished him sufilciently for his crime, and hoped his comrades would forgive him. This satisfied the salvationists, but when it came to the ears of the authorities a com- plaint was made out and Stiles fled to Hartford, where Sheriff Slocum of Win- stcd captured him Wednesday. He was brought back to Winsted and placed under bends to appear for trial this week. preservation should be of interest hardly than to the entire state and nation:— thelcss it is a fact, that the H. & L.

Ex-Governor Holey, who is preparing to celebrate his eighty-second birthday on the 12th of August next, was born in the Ethan Allen house where the depot now stands. . General Montgomery, of Quebec fame, after whom Montgomery Lodge, No. 13, F. and A. M., was named, lived on Town east of the village. The old stone house, where Mont omery lived, is still standing and is owne by the Cleaveland family. The house was a magnificent one in its day, but is now falling to decay and is not oc- cupied. A small sum, however, expended on it would save this historic building from complete ruin for another generation at least. It seems a pity to lose this ancient house around which cluster so many memories, and which has been the scene of many historical incidents. Pub- lic spirited citizens should take measures to preserve this ad old building. Montgomery dge was chartered in 1783 by the Grand Lodge of North Ameri- ca, and is older than the Grand Lodge of the State of Connecticut. It will be re. membered that it celebrated its centennial June 20, 1883. Hezekiah Fitch was the first master of Montgomery Lodge, and the jewel of his office worn b him is still in possession of the Lodge. muei Bul- man, of Lime Rock, is the present master.

One evening recently he looked up his car and went home as usual, but, as was not usual, he observed as he approached his gate a big black snake that had crawled up on the gate post and was amusing itself with trapeze performances, contortions, etc. When Mr. Sweet stopped in amazement it stuck out it tongue, and thumbed its nose at him.
