A GIGANTIC schema.

 

South and West Through New York.
The projectors of the New York Under-

ground railway company, according to

he New York Commercial Advertiser,

have mapped out for themselves a gigan-
t
t

ic scheme by which the handling of all
he freight shipped to and from New

changes made in theiradvertisementssend York city will be reduced to a novel but

day of each week. New advertisements,

Our Town Court.

Senator HILL assures us thatlhe will ap-
pear before the Judiciary Committee to-
morrow, and state his honest conviction
that five thousand of the citizens of Nor-
walk (who haven’t given the subject
thought or examination) are opposed to
the establishment of the proposed town
court and that ten thousand of our citi-
zens (who have given the subject con.
sideration) are strongly in favor of it.
Also, that he, personally, believes itwould
be a beneficent thing, and personally
wishes it to pass. This is, perhaps, all
that can reasonably be demanded of him.

Since our last reference to the subject a
Norwalk attorney informs us that 250
convicts were sent from Norwalk to
Bridgeport jail last year, for each one of
whom the sum of $4.75 was paid the
ofiicer charged with taking them over, or
a total of $1,187.50 for their transmission
to jail. Nor is this all; the above sum
was taken out of our town treasury, and
the culprits were put to work, in frequent
instances, we are told, for the benefit of
the county. Nu blame can be attached to
our local officers for taking these fees.
The wrong hes with all our people who
have so long tolerated the abuse. The
South Norwalk Republican opposes the
court for fear some “legal shyster” from
the borough may be appointed Judge.
We have no such fears. The Guam
would be glad, in a spirit of nompartizan-
ship, to see such a fair and honest man as
Mr LEVI Wanuaa appointed, if the Judge
is to be a lawyer, or if one of our old
Justices of the Peace may be selected,

then Judge SaLLaox. But as is usually

the case, we shall expect our more alert
and much sharper and smarter little city
of South Norwalk to furnish the success-
ful candidate in the event the bill becomes

a law, as it certainly should, and in that

event we shall only rejoice in that we can

see an end of our present abominable

system. .

Then to make the town court a success,
Judge ANDREW Samson’s pet and sensible
scheme of making our aims-house a work-
house, as well, must be enacted, and
Senator HILL assures us that there is
reasonable hope for the passage of this
bill, even though the town court- be de-
feated, as it most assuredly ought not

to be.

Captain Staples’ second paper appears
on our first page today. It is even more
interesting than his first one. These re-

A Card.

It will be gratifying to the donors in
behalf of the Mission Bethe] Church, to
know that the money has been appropri-
ated for the object intended; that the
church has been completed, with all its
appointments, at an expense of $1,748.58,
all of which has been paid, leaving a
balance in the treasury of $1.00. These
results are almost entirely due to the faith-
ful labors of Deacon John Taylor, and
colored and white citizens alike maintain
that but for Deacon Taylor’s efiorts the
Mission Society would still be without a
church of their own. x.

Painful Accident.

Aisev. Mr. Anderson was hurrying
acrOis‘the cobble crossway at the corner
offimith’s pottery, on Thursday last, his
heelseems to have slid from the top of
Ode of the reunded stones, throwing him
down and very severely straining the
tendons of his leg and spraining his ankle.
Unfortunately, too, it was his “game” leg,
in which since the war he has proudly
carried a rebel bullet. He was conveyed
to his home by Mr. Charles C. Betts, and
Dr. Gregory called, who commands his
patient to keep his bed. but he hasalready
commenced to hobble around his room, as
we hear, on a pair of borrowed crutches,
although suffering constant pain. The
Doctor says the injury is more serious
than a fracture.

Home Courtesfee. _

“I am one of those whose lot in life
has been to go out into an unfriendly
world at an early age; and of nearly
twenty families in which I made my home
in the course of about nine years, there
were only three that could be designated
ashappy families; and the cause of trouble
was not so much the lack of love as the
lack of care to manifest it." The closing
words of this sentence give the fruitful
source of family alienations,‘ of heartaches
innumerable, of sad faces and gloomy
home Circles. “Not so much the lack of
love as the lack ofcare to manifest it.” Not
more than three happy families in twenty!
and the cause so easily remedied ! In the
“small courtesies of life” what pOWer
resides! In a look, a word, a tone, how
much of happiness or disquietude may be
communicated! Let us all think of it,
and take the lesson home to our own
lives.

High License in New York.

The New York assembly has by a
strictly republican vote passed the Crosby
high license bill. Allthe affirmative votes
except one were republican and all the
negative votes except four ware demo-
crats. The bill was passed with the
licenses as follows: Liquors to be drunk
'on the premises, $1,000; wine and beer
on the premises, store-keepers’ liquor not
on thepremises, and druggists' $100 each.
It is thought certain that the senate will
also pass the bill. The democratic pro-
moters of the opposition to the bill, are
confident that Governor Hill will veto the
bill when it reaches him. In order to re-
tain the slum vote of New York city‘, for

the democratic party it is thought he will

be forced to a veto.
