Barnum’s circus was burned out Sun-

efforts of the fire department that the
other buildings and neighboring dwellings
were saved. The daily papers have re-
ported the afl‘air at such length and with
such delightful variations in its notation,
that the public is by this time well enough

The Judgeship.
We understand that Hon. E. W. Sny-
monr peremptorily declines to‘h'ave' his
name used as a candidate for Judge. In
this case we must fall back upon our pre-
ferred candidate, Judge Asa B. Wood-
ward. Politics has no business to be con-
sidered in dcciding‘upon the best qualities
for the position. If the Governor can find
a democrat who is better fitted than any
republican in the state, then by all means
let him be selected, but if he can find a
republican who is best fitted let the re-
publican be selected. Gov. Bigelow and
Gov. Harrison had each the selection of
two Judges, undiin both cases, they select-
ed one democrat and one republican.
Gov. Lounsbury would at least be follow-
ing, ancient and honorable usage by doing
likewise.

Fire!
This (Tuesday) noon smoke éwas seen
issuing from the roof at the north end of
the building belonging to the S. E. Olm-
stead estate on Main street, over-the por-
tion occupied by Chas. LaCroix’s saloon
and boarding house. The alarm was rung
from box 15 and the fire department
promptly responded and in a remarkably
short time both Phoenix and Hope boys
had streams playing on the roof and on
the gable end. Flames broke through the
the roof but were quickly subdued, and
the greatest damage was by water. The
fire started in a lot of bedding, and dry
and combustible matter in the attic, and
as a kerosene lamp was found among the
debris it is thought‘thaf. through careless—
ness on somebody’s part, the fire had
started from the lamp. The building is
damaged to the extent of about $300.

Jacob Brown, the negro who killed his
wife in Bridgeport last spring, has been
found guilty of murder in the second
degree, and was sentenced to state’s prison
for life.
The arrangements for the installation of
Rev. Colonel Anderson on the 29th inst.
are progressing satisfactorily, and every
indication indicates that the affair will
be one of the biggest things Norwalk
has seen in many a. day.
The sewer diggers have exhumed the
butt of the old liberty pole in front of the
Norwalk Hotel, which was erected about
fortyyears ago. It was in a fair state of
preservation considering its long burial.
The pole was originally the mainmast of
a. ship.
The last European mail steamer brings
to Mrs. A. H. Byington the sad intelligence
of the death of her deceased father’s eldest
brother, Robert Richmond, Esq., who
died in London a few days since at the
great age of 89 years. Mr. Richmond was
a native and resident, and for many years
of his long life a. prominent barrister in
London. Several Norwalk people when
abroad have visited him at his hospitable
home, and all such will sincerely sympa-
thize with Mrs. Byington and her family
in this new bereavement.
' H. R. R. stock.
The following form will be understood by
those who read the report of the recent

Orrtcn on THE llousx'rosrc R. R. Co.,

Frank, son of Wm. Moore, of Chestnut
street, has been very ill with congestion

Miss Lucretia Qumtard has been afflict-

Mr. and Mrs. DcFrabritis, nee Ellen-

tour and are sojourning a few days at the
home of the bride, previous to entering
upon the delights of housekeeping.
Mr. George Seymour is still very ill and
confined to his room. Evidently he has
finished his hard work in and around the
“Nursery," and at his age is entitled to
quiet and freedom from care.

brothers present iii prayer. Their pres-
tige and success in the city' have departed.
Our soldier boys are beginning to feel
the eficcts of the evening‘s entertainment
of the ladies, and of the thorough inspec-
tion and drill, but are looking forward
with pleasure to the parade in honor of
the G. A. R. and the installation of Col.
Anderson and are ready to do their part
to make the occasion a success, and one
to be remembered with pride.
If Mr. Alfred Knapp is an Ex-Judge he
is yet- an Ex-ccllent judge of cake, and
when there is a. wedding or party the la-
dies often send him a bountiful supply.
0n the lust occasion he received so abund-
antly that he sent for Mr. Walz of the Ma-
hackemo'Hotcl to partake With him and
both enjoyed the feast, pronouncing the
cake the best they had ever eaten. As
the fruit cake congealed slightly to the
teeth, Mr. W. proposed to wash it down
with a drink—of water.
Another spasmodic effort has been com-
menced with speaking and music—osten-
sibly to further the cause of temperance
but chiefly prohibition. It is remarkable
how freely the speakers now denounce
the republican party—the only friends of
temperance—and argue that, though the
prohibitionists are in the minority they
will finally succeed, as did the old aboli-
tion party. One has wisely said : “It is
absurd to compare the prohibitionists to
the old abolition party. The prohibition-
isis seem to desire the defeat of their own
friends, or those who have done all that
has been accomplished for the temper-
ancc cause, especially if they are repub-
licans. If the old abolitionists had pur-
sued the same course slavery would still
exist." But men can be hired to plead
either side like lawyeis, and only argue
for prohibition because the pay is larger
titan for day labor.

The work of cutting down the hill in
Cherry Street proceeds slowly, A ledge
of rock has been encountered, of which
even dynamite does not make short work
of. As fast as the broken stone can be
taken out, it is made into a broad, fine

The Whyte Brothers have been engaged

The New York Weekly Tribune will be enlarged
(on or before the 1st of January, 1838, by the ad-
dition of from four to eight more. pages of actual
reading matter—an increase of stze of great ex-
pense to The Tribune, but without expense to the
subscriber. _
A complete outfit of the new folding and insert-
ing presses will he put into The Trvmme’s press
room in November and December ; and the extra
.sheet will be folded into its place in the main sneet
before It comes front the press. The enlarged
Tribune will be the biggest and best of all the
New York weeklles, and the new machinery wtll
print it, in enlarged form, at the rate of 72,000
copies per hour. .
New features and a greater variety of contents
'will be. added to The Tribune during the coming
.year. Readers will be given nearly a- linlf more
for their money. .
Pensions for the old volunteers, cspeclal.y ser-
vice pensions, are being vigorously agitated in
The Trilnme; much space is given in every issue
to this subject. Better protection to farmers un-
der the tariff ; the salvation of the country from
the curse of intemperance ; and the rescue of the
national government from the hands of the rebel
brigadiers ; these and all the other live issues of
the day are receiving a gresslve, earnest and
.loya'. treatmentin The T: (m .
The Tribune does not attempt to supersede the
, local,state and county press. But in the great-
Presidential conflict now at hand, every thinking
Republican, old soldier, farmer and temperance
man should have his local paper and The New
York Tribune.
