A Few More Scraps of Political History.
The political history of Connecticut is
becoming so rich in what may be styled
the Enwann Selena CLavnuNn literature
that the temptation to contribute a few
scraps to the general fund becomes irre-
sistable. The democratic candidate for
governor “has a most unique and versatile
history”—and such a history; stupendu-_
ously prolific it is inincongruities, incon-
sistencies, absurdities and perfidies. He
has always striven to locate himself politi-
cally where the greenestlpastures seemed
to him to grow. So it was not a surprise
that he abandoned the old ‘peravery
democracy, and when the loyalty of, our
people burst forth like an avalanche at the
' firing on Sumter, that he was found at the
front of the procession—a candidate. for»
' the Hartford post office. Having the sup-
port of Cabinet Minister Gideon 'Welles,
of Senator Dixon, of Representative Dem.
ing and the potential help of President
Lincoln's avowed - policy of bolstering
the new-hem zeal of such democrats as
.had thus left their party by giving them
an office whenever practicable, Cleveland
had little difficulty in securing the office
he besought. " . »
Early in theyear 1802‘s feeling of
indignant hostility broke out in Hartford
against their new postmaster, because he
rented-a portibn of what was then _dc-
nounccd as “the disloyal Hartford Times
building" for his post ofilce. Washington
was assaulted by mail, wire and numerous
. individual committee visitations from
Hartford demanding the removal of Cleve,
land for his covert sympathy with those
then publicly avowed sympathizers with
the rebellion, A. E. Burr and Hon. Wm.
W. Eaton, and charging, as we remember,
that he permitted the inner omce of the
Hartford post ofilce to become the latter’s
“loafing place." Cleveland's new political
friends defended him by admitting that
he had madel grave mistakes .in these
respects, but they believed he really, at
heart, meant;to “acthquare” by the party
and administration that had given him
the emcehe had importunately begged.
This little episode led to another event
‘ of more unique and startling importance
in thcpersOnal and political history of our
hero. His frequent visits to Washington,
and more or' less prolonged stay while
urging his own appointment as postmaster,
’ and afterwards to avert a threatened re-
moval, furnished him' just the plausible
pretext he needed for making the Good-
year Rubber company believe him to be a
man'of'large acquaintance and potent in-
fluence in official circles at the capital,
:and just the person they needed to lobby
Congress for' the defeat efarivalpatcnt
_extension._ ' Clev'eland succeeded in mak.
-ing_ such representations as. induced the
Goodyear company to'pla'ce inhis hands a
large sum of money; representations
'which-omcers of that Co. subsequently
denounced is false and deceptive in every
particular; but be that as it may, the Hart-
ford postmaster thereupon came to Wash-
' ingtonand established himself at Willard’s
with a sort of “at home" air, indicating '
he had come to stay, opened'a private bar
in- his room, and began to dispense a
promiscuous hospitality that soon spread
his fame all about the hotel and 'capitol
corridbrs‘ ass “Well heeled lobbyist” with .
a rich corporation behind him and a big"
job before congress. It should be stated
injustice to Cleveland that be frequently
denied the imputation that he was there
as a lobbyist, and to prove it, declared he
, '1 had never said a word or done a thing
‘ about cougress in aid of the rubber com-
pahy,-‘—-a' statement its ofilcers subsequent-
ly as fully and just as vehemently con-
firmed. ~ ’ '
It was at one of Cleveland's manyzcon-
vivial seances. at Willard's that he im-
mortalized himself as the most intense
- lover of his fellow man on record, and got
a well "deserved dressing down by Con-
gressman Henry C. Deming. ~The vener-
, able representative from our Fourth dis.
trict had entered Cleveland's apartments
at a moment when‘the exhilarating eflects
of a fresh remittance from some rubber
company or other influence“ bore heavily
upon our hero. .With "an . abandon of
facetious familiarity, he had persisted in
calling our Litchfield. county member,
“Old Mother Hubbar ,". and on the latter
entering his room, rushed upon him with
x enclasplng arms, hugging the aged con-
gressman with the vigor of a bear, and
covering-bis" blushing face with him,
while :hiccoughing: “Hubbard, I lose
you; love you (hic)—_:mor'n my- poverty

. (hie) if you were (hie) a woman (hie) I'd
marry you!" This, of course, “brought
dow‘n'the house," but it was more than
Deming could bear. Slowly‘rising, and
intense of just rebuke, he said: -,“-Clcve,

The session of congress came to an end. >
and returned to Hartfordéi' His friends,
not wishing to pry intothe' secret of his
hilarious sojourn in Washington too close-
ly, looked upon it as, at worst, a sort of
censure any specially reprehensible excess
he was at once excused, because of his
mirth provoking buffoncry. No end man
at the minstrels, or clown at the circus
could equal the entertainments Cleveland
frequently gave his friends in low comedy,
(some of it very low), and when he left
the capital :it was with the reputation that
he had ' completely eclipsed Artemus
Ward 's kangaroo, as an “amoezin’kuss.”
Cleveland’s “flop" over into “Andy
Johnson democracy” and retention of his
post office is too well remembered to need
rehearsal. When the “Johnson policy"
fizzled out, a favorite anecdote of his, to
explain his own position, was that he felt
like the gent, who, in a state of familiar
inehriety, had tumbled out of his back,
after wallowing in the dirt began to up-
braid the driver for upsetting. “I didn’t
upset," said the driver. "'Wcll,",replied
.thegent, “if I hadn’t tho’t you’dupset, I
never should have got out." ,
But ‘.‘every rose must have; its thorn."
Referring ._to the Gazgi'rk- of Tuesday,
March 27,1886, we '"find that the demo-
’ crats of Norwalk had advertised Edward
Spices to address them at what is now our
Opera House. Following the important
announcement is the following somewhat
startling card: ' . ~
. Nkw Yank, March 24th, ’66.
min-nan SrhT—Mr. Cleveland. osrmaater at
Hartford, received one year ago a past winter
from Winn! Jonson, of this city, the sum of
“1.000. in money for the purposes of infin-
encin the l laticn of Congress in the matter
of an, ra been Damn. I know the facts
to be as above stated and am willing to be held
responsible for the statement. — —— says
this is an indictable offence for a Federals ofiice
holder to be en ed in,
You are at hberty to make my statement
public, and I will take the consequences.
Very truly Wu. A.:Hau.
or Hall, Southwick a 00., Nos. 270 and 231
Broadway, N. Y.
Accompanying the abovejnotcjo ourof-
fice, was appended the followtng state-
ments and questions :— '
“Newwe wish'io'ask lr.=Ol_eyeiand—- . .
lat—Is the above statement true ? 2d--What
did you do with the money? lid—What is the
difference between your. conscience and India
rubber except that the former possesses more
elasticity than the latter? ' ‘ '
Mr. Wm. A. Hall, of the old. New Ca-
naan firm of Benedict do Hail, shoe manu-
facturers, was so wellqknownaa-a man of
the highest integrity, that we at once
wrote him a letter requesting a recital of
the exact facts in this. “lobby" case. He
replied in substance, (as we'no'w recall the
contents of his letter,) that Mr. Cleveland
had inveigled MrJudson—Preside‘nt of the
rubber companyr—inte‘employing him to
go to Washington and aid in the defeat of
an India rubber patent, then seeking to be
extended by act of Congress ; j that he had
represented to Mr J. that he.(Cl_evcland)"
could command such potent influence in
both Houses of Congress as would make
his :success absolutely certain; , that be
particularly emphasized, his personal con-
trol of the vetes or the two Connecticut
Senators and four "representatives; that“
he drew on thejrubber company for vari-‘
ous sums, 'whilalhe l'elllained at Washing-
ton, till it aggregated over $40,900, and
-' worst ref all, that hef'llad written them
confidentially, ‘that he was paying it to
Congressmen, and among others, giving the
names ‘of two members of the Connec-
of the company, drew thesechecks on the
order of President Judson, and “knewi'
what he stated to be true. ,. That be (Mr.
H.) had'op‘posed this lobby scheme from
the outset, and when the names of a Con-.
necticut Senator and member of the
House, were; furnished ;by Cleveland, as
among those receiving this money be de-
nounced it as a lie, as the parties named
were his personal ;friends and he knew
them incapable of suchperfldy; he imme-_
diately set to work to ascertain what:
Cleveland had done for them and with
their money:and did ascertain beyond azren-
,~sonable doubt' that he 'had neither done
anything himself or interested anyone else
in any effort iodefeat thisextension, or
spentla dollar beyond what was squander-
.ed in. convivial dissipatiens at Willard’s.
' On-the above? statements made by Mr.
Hall, the Guerra of March 27, ’00, in an”
editorial reference to Cleveland’s coming
address'*to" the democrats of Norwalk,
specially invited him to make Mr. Hall's
charges one of the subjects of Media-
course. Mr. Cleveland appeared before
a large audience of democrats and repub-
licans, and accepted our challenge by
opening his evening's:speech with the fol-
lowing explanation, as will be well re.-
membered by many who were present on
that interesting occasion. Advancing to
the front of the platform, with face wreath-
ed in smiles and a copy of'the Gain-n11 in
his hand, he said: '
. Famow Gimmes: My attention has been
called to the following card published in the
Norwalk Cums, published byv'my distin-
guished friend, A. H. Byinggm, who I am de-
lghted to‘sce before me. the kind Norwalk
friend had‘ been at the pains to mail me a
marked copy of my friend’s interesting paper,
whlchIreceivedai Hartford before my de-
parture for your beautiful town. I took it to
my counsel, the lion. Charles Chapman; and
as ed‘hlm what I should :sagongdorabout so
grave a charge as that. me Tofiycn‘, whet
may chance to knowlhfr. Chapman can picture
to yourselvestho micallook he gave me as
he transferred his: liquid from his larboard
to-hls starboard choc and replied :' “Do and
say about such a charge as that .l . .Why. Cleve;
land, do nothing, and 13g
Lou couldn’t get a cl- in ,ristondomj that
eleven who wool 11’ .say that if any? man
was blanked fool enough to entrust you' with
forty thousand dollars or any such purpose,
that you’d steal every cent of it."
This sally of wit raised a .feeblo121augh,
“and Cleveland pro‘ceededfio harrangue his
fellow democrats ontheir political duties,
without further reference to ,Mr. Hall's
serious 'chargea. 'At the close of the meet-
ing we asked Mr. Cleveland if' he wouldn’t
tell us what 9 answer he’eouldjnake to"
Hall. “Why, of, course," was his cordial
reply. “You know when I was down
there in Washingtona Well, therubber
people gave me some money to ‘Ibust’v
somebody’s patent or something, and
told me to hunt around- congress and
find themes wheneeded it most and give
it to them. So I hunted all over the
House, went over to the Senate and
hunted there, and then went down to
my hotel, looked inlet)“: mirror and I
said, 'Trrknnl Tank’s m MAN THAT
nuns l-r nos-r, AND I ins-r rb'r rr IN 1111
POCKB‘i‘r—AND I'va cor 11' THERE 1121‘."
From all. that we could gather, we cou- "
dude that MrrCleVeland made to us about ‘
as truthful a statement. as he is capable of
making about anything, and [yet this is
the man wh‘o‘,has the brazen effrontery to
impute to Mr. Lounsbury a purpose to
purchase and debauch the electors ,of
Connecticut. Mr. Cleveland would make
a good “boon companion" at a carousal,
[clembake'or roystering' fishing-bout, but
even then all the “bait" carried in bottles
would have to be put under lock and key.‘
And this convivial combination of incon-
sistencies and conglomerated absurdities
is put before the candid and honest-people
.of our state to fill the seatonce occupied by
Welcott, Bissell, Buckingham and Hawley.
This is the man who would divert public
ity by attempting to slur the reputation of
. the republican candidate for governor.
'A man who in moral rcctitude,‘ dignity,
probity, honesty of purpose and manliness ’
is as far above Mr. Cleveland as the stars
are higher than the earth.

bor delegate from Norwalk, he (1 a demo-
‘craiic congressional convention in St.

were ever 80 other delegates, but Mr.
Townsend‘so far outshone them all in the
multiplicity of his motions, speeches sug-
gestions and miscellaneous w1udillgs that
he can fairly claim the honor of being
general manager. It is true that after his
partially bald- ead had popped above the
surrounding heads 30 or 40 times the au- .
dience showed signs of being very tired.
but that had no appreciable effect on his
exhuberant energy. His velce and legs
held out to the bitter end. . .
J. M. Tooker of Darieu, smoothly
shaven and democratic to the marrow, oc-
cupied the same seat as at the state con-
vention the other day. He sat on the end
chair in the front row and performed the
same duties. It was his mission both days
to fire objections to anything undemocratic.
Hon. LeGrand G. Beers of Long Hill, as
temporary and permanent chairman pre-
sided like the stern old Jeffersonisn dem-
ocrat he re, while Sheriff Christian Swartz
and Albert M. Card of Sharon, performed
the duties of secretaries with tender dig-
nihy and grace. ' '
strong desire to adjourn until 2 whole
broke out about this time. There was a
hitch over the nomination. An unexpected
hostility to the candidacy of Hon. E.-S.
Fairfield and Litchfisld counties were
necessary. In the debate Delegate Town-
send distinguished himself by the remark
that “It might make dinner half an heur
late, but we are old democrats and don’t
care. Democrats are not very regular in
their habits." No one protested against
this extraordlna statement. Senator
Staub of New ilford,-—“Nick” as his
intimates call him—appealed for the
stomachs of the convention. He wanted
plenty of time for dinner. He has a
hysiquc which calls for - occasional nour-
Ithment and at 2 o’clock was beaming
with the contentment born of easy diges-
tion. '
The convention adjourned after a failure
to get an informal ballot. During the re-

[From the Bridgeport Homing News-1
._John'shall Tuesday afternoon, after the
democratic con 'ressional convention had
been obli ed to can their Sunday rail‘nent
to the 75 elegates who filed into the same-
hall to hold the republican congressional
convention at 10:80 yesterday morning,
rowed garb a trifle loose. The republican
of Fairfield and Litchfield counties is a
thinner man than his democratic enemy.
There was a sigh of relief when J. Belden
Hurlbutt, of Nerwalk, was appointed
temeorarly chairman. He is a ru'shcr.
E. . Hil of Norwalk was chosen tempor-
ary secretary, but declined in favor of A.
E. Austin of Norwalk. About this .time
it began to dawn upon the minds of the
delegates that there were a good man
Norwnlk men around. Chairman Hur-
blltt whis red to the News reporter that
it seems to be all Norwalk, and that
Norwalk wasa great town, but Bridge-
port didn't seem to think so. This'was
the first of many side allusions to the
court housefi ht made during the con-
vention. E. urr Jr., was onihe Darien

tington, Charles B. Wheeler from Monroe,
