Within a few weeks Congress will as-
semble for a long session. The Senate
will be very nearly a. tie upon political
questions with a small Republican majori-
ty, and with little or no charge alto its
status upon the commercial and financial
questions which interest the country. In
the House the Democrats Will have a small
working poiitical majority, and will be,
as at the last session, divided outside of
party limits in respect'to finance, the tariff
and general subjects. There is at present
no promise of any banking legislation
based upon sound principles; norany that
a sensible and just revision of the tariff
will be made. There may be hope that
no injurious action will be had in regard
to coinage, if there is none or not much as
to the repeal of the present law. As to
subsrdies, pension and appropriations for
\internal improvements and Southern
schools, while there is a trend of public
opinion toward what is constitutional and
honest, he would be a bold prophet who
should prognosticate, the Presidential
campaign pending, that legislation will be
wise or in accordance with the principles
of the fundamental law, and the spirit of
our institutions. , .

Abraham Lincoln’s Statue.
The great statue of Abraham Lincoln
was unveiled Saturday afternoon at Lin-
coln park, Chicago, in the presence of a
large crowd. Shortly before 3 o’clock the
booming of cannon startled the assembled
multitude, and little “Abe” Lincoln, the
son of ' Robert T. Liuculn, stepped up to
the base of the flag-covered bronze figure
of his grandfather, and pulled a rope
which held the covering. The folds
slowly unlooscned and droppeddown at
the base, and the tall, erect figure of
Abraham Lincoln shone brightly in the
sun, which struggled through the clouds
at that moment. A tremendous shout
went up from the 5000 people assembled,
and it was joined amoment later by the
roar from'the cannon. The oration was
delivered by Leonard Swett, whose inti-
mate political, social and domestic rela-
tions with the great president have made
him one of the best informed men now
living on Lincoln’s life.

Grand Enca‘mpment.
The annual meeting of the GraudEu-
campmcnt of Odd Fellows opened at New
Haven on Tuesday morning with a good
attendance. This report of Frederick
Botsford, the grand secretary, showed 22
encampments and a membership of 2,770,
being a gain of 226 during the year. The
receipts of the grand encampment wore
$679.19 and those of subordinatcs$11,083.-
4". The amount paid for relief was $3,-
601, and for expences $6,071.10, leaving
the total fund of the subordinates $23,-
292.34, a gain of $1,410.79. Twenty-nine
deaths have'occured. Officers were elect-
ed as follows: Grand patriarch, William
H. Cox of New Haven; grand high priest,
Lyman S. Burr of New Britain; grand scu-
ior warden, Frank J. King of Norwich;
grand scribe, Frederick Botstrd of New
Haven; grand treasurer, J. W. Smith of
Waterbury; grand junior warrleu, James
E. Camp of Bridgeport; grand representa-
tive, Isaac H. Coe of Hartford. The grand
encampment will meet next year in Dan-

Rise in Goa].
Considerable grumbling has met the
raise of cold by orlr local dealers to six
.dollars per ton, brlt we are assured that it
is no fault of our dealers, and that if the
labor disturbances continue at the mines
it will be a question before winter is over
whether coal can be had at any price. A
dispatch from Philadelphia says :—“Thc
scarcity of anthracite coal at this point
has become such that vessels are com-
pelled to wait two and three weeks for
cargoes, and in many instances have been
compelled to leave without. Most of them
go to Baltimore, where they secure quicker
dispatch and better rates. The supply of
anthracite to this city is entirely inade-
quate to to the demand, and if cold
weather comes on before the scarcity is
relieved there will be absolute suffering
for the want of fuel."

Business.
Although the tendency just at present
seems to be towards an inereasrng quiet-
ness in business circles, thereis no doubt
that the volume of transactions through-
out the country is still large. The returns
of railroad, earnings, as Well as those of
bank clearings ill the principal centers of,
trade, show that thisis so, both indicating
gains over those of a year ago. The spe-
culative tendency is not so marked as it is
usually in time: of buoyancy and con-
fldence, and the course of the stock mar-
ket recently has disappointed expecta-
tions, though this is largely due to special
causes, which have little to do with the
general trend of business affairs ; but
money is in better supply, and imports of
gold have continued liberal. General
conditions may be said to remain favor-
able. ‘

Gymnastics For Ladies.
The N. Y. World of last Sunday has an
interesting and illustrated article on
gymnastic culture for ladies and girls.
The cuts show the various devices and
practices for muscle development and
physical culture of females, and ends by
the important statement that this feature
of physical education is not after all so
much to improve and strengthen the
muscles of the body as to give to it grace-
ful action and carriage. and particularly
to instruct its pupils in a pleasing and
graceful walking The Misses Anderson
and Betts teach exactly the same methods
at their East Avenue gymnasium forladies
as does Mrs. A. II. Bisscll in her school

Our Freight Line.
We are srlre that our freight shippers
will duly appreciate the enterprise and
liberality, as well as the purpose shown to
fulfill every reasonable requirement for
the New York and Nor-walk freighting
needs, ill the recent addition of another
propeller to our freight line, so that the
service shall be daily so long as it is pos—
sible to plough through the coming
winter‘s ice in our' harbor. The old, rc-
liable line has now two first-class freight
boats, and the inauguration of this daily
freight line will be met, we have no doubt,
byareciprocai spirit on the part of the
public, and secure an increased volume of
freight.

Special Session.
The Ridgclicld Press, published at the
home of Governor Lormsburyhasa col-
ulun editorial in its last. issue ancnt the
grade crossing extra session question,
which would seem to indicate that the
unanimity of sentiment and enthusiasm of
feeling so generally felt here ill behalf of
an extra session, has not extended to the
higher latitudes of Ridgefield. It says :—
“Although the Governor has the power
to calla special session, it is a power
which he should only under the most
urgent circumstances use. Some sudden,
unforeseen circumstance might arise when
his duty might be plainly indicated and
hisrefusalcriminal. But at this time no
such condition exists. There has been no
material change since the whole matter
was diseusssd by the same body of men
who would constiute the special legisla-
ture. To be sure the most strenuous
efforts by citizens of Nor-walk and other
towns on the line of the Consolidated road
to create a. demand have been made, 'but
we can find no evidence that their efforts
have been successful beyond certain limits.
Other portions of the State do not sympa-
thize with the feeling and consequently
there is not the slightest indication that
the result would be any different than it
was last spring.
We do not want any granger legislature
neither do we want to see the population
of the state arrayed against one of its
most important industries, and one that
has contributed most largely to the devel-
opment of the State and to the growth
of our cities. -
The method pursued to secure a specral
session do not promise wise legislation.
First, a wholesale denunciation of the rail._
roads, then an attack on the commission:
ers, misrepresenting their actions and
impugniug their motives, and then.au
arraignment of the legislators, accusrug
themof being liable to be unduly influenc-
ed. It is said that the railroads will
employ the “highest legal, business,
executive and financial ability” on one
side, while “only right and justice" will
be on the other. In such _a contest it is
proclaimed that the “peOple of the State
will not'have a fair chance.” .
Is it a good outlook for a special session
when in three or four days laws are ex-
pected to be repealed, the commissioners
“bounced,” the entire expense of changing
railroad crossings thrown upon the rail-
roads, or in case of failure every legislator
who votes contrarily is to be branded as a
bribe-taker? Does this promise a session
where the whole matter is to' be candidly
and fairly discussed and the question de-
cided on its merits? Is it not rather to
be supposed that it has been hoped .by
desperate efforts to secure an early session
and rush the matter through by sheer
force? -
:We cannot help beleiving that the
interests of the public are in safer hands
where they are. There is no reason in
the fears that have been excited. The
commissioners, as shown by tlleir acts,
have no desire and no intention of saddl-
ing immense burdens upon various towns.
Some crossings are more dangerous than
others and should be first removed; the
others later, in a way to not make it very
burdensome to the towns. The commis-
sioners are not in the league with the rail-
roads to precipitate vast expenditures on
the towns in advance of legislative actrou.
All such talk is mere folly, the efforts of
desperate men to induce an undue exerte-
ment. As we have said before, any
wholesale removal of crossings, if
demanded by the railroads, will be done
almost entirely at their expense or we
very much mistake the wisdom of the
commissioners, Should they show a dif-
ferent intention there will be sufficient
time for different action.”

Nerwalk.
If this town was the banner town of
1884 for temperance, it was far from it at
the recent election. The town is divided
into three scpcratc voting districts: Nor-
walk, South Norwalk and East Norwalk.
The temperance element is mostly in South
Nor-walk and East Norwalk. Upper Nor-
walk, which is voting district No. 1, in-
eludes the borough, West Nor-walk, Win-
nipauk, the most of “Silver Mine,” and
“Cranberry Plain,” all of which have a
post-office, cxceptthc last named place.
The voters of this district (No. 1) number
1,200. . Taking as aguide the two candi-
dates for town clerk (for some unexplained
reason there was no other) they got re-
spectively 610 and 490 votes, making a to-
tal of 1,100. Out: of that number a total
of 992 votes on the license question were
cast. Of the 992 votes, only 194 were for
no-license, leaving a majority of 789 for
license ill voting district No. 1. The
number of votes in the whole town for It
cense was 1,302, and for no-liccnse only
477; a majority of 825, only 57 votes more
than were cast in district No.1. Tllc issue
of license, therefore, depends entirely how
district No. 1 votes.-- ll‘illimantic Home.

A Novel Entertainment.
One of the pleasantest features of the
sociable held at the Congregational clmrch
Friday evening, was a mock trail, which
occasioned mrlcil mcriment. The trial
was over a serious case of kid-napping;
Judge Woodward acting as Judge, Mr.
Anderson and Mr. Jollrl S. Seymour the
lawyers, and Mr. Chas. Miller the clerk.
The trial‘ was carried on ill a most scien»
tific manner, amidst the uncontrollable
laughter from the audience. Mr. J. A.
Osborn was pronounced guilty by the
jurymcn, consisting of twelve charming
young ladies, of kidnapping the child,
Dr. Baldwin, and was held ill close cou-
fiuernent all the evening by Master Ward
Gregory, the policeman. Mr. Wm. P.
Anderson, a brother of the pastor, held
tllc dignified position of sheriff, and
seemed to find it a difficult matter to keep
silence in tile court. Miss Maurie Stewart

Congregational Liberalism.
This phrase of Liberalism 'has won for
itself unquestionable place and standing
room ill the pulpits of the Congregational
body. It is probable that a fair represen-
tative council in any part of the country
would have ordained to the ministry any
one of the men whom the prudential com-
lnittce have rejected. It is just ten years
since the Indian Orchard council—a small,
uurcpresentative body—refused installa-
tion to a man of this way of thought.
Right on its heels a far larger council at
North Adams, including Presidents Hop-
kins and Porter, installed Mr. llluuger,
whose heresy was more pronounced. A
whole series of councils have reached
similar decisions, and only in extremely
rare instances has there been an opposite
result. Great historic churches like the
Old South ill Boston and the Center in
New Haven have settled men in outspoken
sympathy with the new ideas. Of the two
principal scminaries, New Haven is less
explicit than Andover, brlt tllc general
tendency is little different. A body as
conservative as the Yale corporation) elects
a leader of the new school to its member-
ship. Til" creed which was framed and
published by the Commission of the Na-
tional Council was emphatically silent on
the question of future probation. Among
Congregationalism at borne the new theo-
logy has won secure place. From the
foreign field it is as yet excluded, tllrorlgll
the uurcpmscufntive constitution of the
Board, and the usurpation of a little knot
of rnen.—Spriugflclrl lkpublljean.

Err-Minister Washbutne Dead.
lion. Elihu Benjamin Washburuc died
in Chicago Saturday ntght. He was born
in Livermore, Maine, Sept. 23, 1810, and
after an edrrcation ill the prrblic schools
became an apprentice in the office of the
Kcnncbcc Iom'nal. His health broke
down and he studied law at IIallowcll,
and afterward in the Cambridge Law
school. He was admitted to the bar, and
began practice at Galena, 111., in 1842.
He was sent from Illinois to the Thirty-
third Congress as a whig, and served in
Congress continuously for sixteen years,
always as a whig and republican. In 1869
he was appointed by President Grant
secretary of state, and resigning soon
afterward on account of ill health was ap—
pointed minister to France.
He reruained in Paris all tllrorlglr the
siege during the Franco-German war, and
in the days of the Com rnrmc, which fol-
lowed, being the only foreign minister
who did so. He is said to have assisted
over 8,000 Germans to escape from Paris.
His services to suffering Parisians and
foreign citizens generally during these
times also brought tokens of appreciation
from the French and other nations. He
served as llliuister until 1877, and then
returned to Illinois. He has taken some
part since in republican politics, and has
been frequently mentioned as a probable
candidate for President. He has been
very sick for several months. He it was
who first urged upon Mr. Lincoln’s atten-
tion the soldierly qualities of his then
fellow townsman, Ulysses S. Grant.
When General Grant, in command of the
army of the Potomac, moved on to Rich-
monrl, Mr. W. accompanied him as did
Mr. C. A. Dana in the earlier part of the
campaign. He was in every respect a
brave, noble and upright man.
They Liked Him. .
It isn‘t to be wondered at that Winsted‘
chaps like so go off on a salt water cruise
with the Neptune club. The “Chwp” of
the club, the Rev. Edward Anderson, of
Norwaik, occupied the pulpit of the
Second church last Sunday, and seems by
his effective preaching to have captivated
all who heard him. His text was the third
verse of the second chapter of- Deutero-
nony : Ye have compassed this mountain
long enough, turn you northward. The
lesson he drew from his text was that the
church has long enough spent itself in the
discussion of theological and doctrinal
points and it is time to trlrn to the practi-
cal work of capturing the world for Christ.
Mr. Anderson served as a chaplain of an
Indiana regiment for threcweeks, during
the War of the Rebellion, when Gen. Pope
is said to have discovered that he was
“worthablanked sight more as a com-
manding ofllcer than as chaplain,” and
secured his appointment as colonel of the
12th Indiana cavalry. Just how many
men he killed, or where be buried them,
history has failed to record, but those who
heard him last Sunday will not be slow to
believe that he was an efficient soldier——
at least if his fighting qualities were in
any degree comparable with his present
ability as a preacher. Nor-walk is to be con-
gratuiatcd on having so attractivea man in
its possession, and there seems but little
use of other places trying to steal him
from his present pulpit, Plymouth church
having failed, it is said. to induce him to
' become Henry Ward Beecher’s successor.
On Monday evening the Winstcd mem-
bers of the Neptune club held a reunion
with their chaplain at Capt. Geo. W. Lee’s,
whose guest he was over Sunday.— Wm—

" Ghoulish Reporters” Steal The
President's Thunder.
Just ahead of the President’s gorgeous
~ Jeffersouian simplicity train, in pulling
out of the Nashville station, was the
special car bearing the Governor of Ten-
ncssee and his bedizened staff; many dis.
tinguishcd gentlemen and ladies and the
President of the Nashville. Chattanooga
and St. Louis Railroad, Mr J.W. Thomas,
ill his private car. Accompanying him
was such of the press contingent as are
ostraciscd from the President’s train. and
that means all newspaper men except the
perfunctory correspondents of the Asso-
ciated Press and United Press and a Mug-
wump artist for flannel-’3 Weekly. The
crowd of New York, Washington, Phla-
deiphia, Cincinnati and Chicago ‘corrcs.
pondents have decidedly the best of it in
Mr. Tllolnas’s private car, and went ahead
at the rate of fifty miles an hour, while the
President tagged along behind.
This arrangement gave rise to a series
of ludicrous incidents. Tile people all
along the route had gathered in force to
see the President, or at least his train. Of
course they knew nothing of there being
two trains, and the crowds supposed, of
course, our train was the President’s.
The consequence was, that the newspaper
men travelled in a continual ovation of
cheering and cannon firing from Nashville
to Chattanooga. One newspaper man (lid
very well as Dan Lamont, and was lnuch
admired by the. crowds. Mr. Davis. who
was in charge of Thomas’ special train.
did very well as Grover Cleveland. The
speeches were much better than the Presi-
dent's, and had no flavor of cyclopgsdia
about them. quiet the contrary. After
that train passed, the people standing in
the. rain dispersed rapidly, and the Presi-
dent’s train, when it calne along, was
gazed at ill silent astonishment by the
few people remaining at the station—F.

The Criticisms of a Friend.
The New York Sun, the brightest as
well as ablest organ of the democracy,
thus truthfully, yet rather ungenerously,
criticises President Cleveland’s oratory on
Ins recent exhibition trip of “swinging
’ronnd the circle :" ,
,The most. important result of the Prest—
dent’s journey is the self-revelation he has
,made in its course of his intellectual re-
sources. llis speeches have furnished an-
other guage of his capacity, and we doubt
if even his warmest admirer is not really
disappointed ill them. Originality, brilli-
ancy, pith, were perhaps too much to ask
for. The pregnant or sonorous phrases
to be found in ilis state papers before he
lost the collaboration of an” expert hand.
were not to be expected in these western
and southern speeches. But. surely be
was equal to the commonplace, and his
style could faithfully reflect his character.
Why did he have to be commonplace or
secondhand, and add to other people’s
facts the pompous barrenncss of his or-
dinary expression? The impression pro.
ducerf has been grotesque ; and on this
account if on no other the journey must
be accounted a mistake. Nothing can be
worse for the reputation of a public mall
than to have made himself ridiculous, and
particularly must such be the case with a
self-conscious. solemn and sensitive man
like Mr. r levelanrl.
Tllc mugwulnps expected that their
President would soar on the wings of
s ecch, an eagle in the heights of air.
They must be grieved, and certainly the
judicious are, to see him waddling through
his borrowed oratory like a fat goose
through a huckiebcl‘rv patch.

A Coal Hulk That Cast a Million And‘a
Half; .
There was a funeral at the Navy Yard
yesterday. It was the removal of the
remains of the old war ship Tennessee, by
two powerful tags, to Meriden, Coma,
where she will be'nsed as a coal hulk by
a railway company. As she passed out of
sight up the East River there was a feel-
ing of regret that the largest and most
expensive vessel which the Navy ever had .
was never more,to fl the admiral’s pen-
nant nor the American flag. ITh'erewas.‘
nothing to be seen above the deck except-
ing the two huge smokepipes and the
three lower masts. She was completed
early in 1865, and was known as the
Madawaska, and with her great engine
power was capable of making an eighteen
knot speed. '
Her original cost was nearly a million
and half of dollars. After her return from
her first cruise in the West Indies she was
rechristcned'thc Tennessee, and has since
served-as the flagship of Admirals Wylnan
Cooper, Jouctt and Luce. A bbard of
survey finding that sllc could not be re-
paired within the limit allowed by Con-
gress, sire was sold at auction on Septem-
ber 15th, the upset price 'bcing $28,000.
She was purchased by the Meriden Rail-
way Company for $34,425, but is estimated
to be worth dorrblc that, as her hull and
machinery are in fair ordcr.— Tribune.
