Congress.

There was practically nothing accom-
plished in the House last week, although
the calendar is loaded down with bills fa-
vorably reported by its committees, and
hundreds of bills that have passed the Sen-
ate. ._‘ low progress was made in the Senate
on the Tariff bill, and on Friday it was laid
aside to permit Senator Frye to introduce
the River and Harbor bill, which was pass-
ed by that bodv, Saturday. I‘ appropri-
atcs twenty-six millions; but it is to be re-
membered that this appropriation is for a
period of two years. It is believed by some
that it will be cut down considerably when
it reaches the House, and some go so far as
to say the President will veto it, should it
pass at all. The only paragraph that chal-
longed debate in the Senate was that ap—
propriating athird of a million for the
widening and deepening of the channel of
he Harlem river so that all sized sailing
craft can circumnavigate New York city.
This was strongly opposed by the Connec-
ticut and other New England senators as
sure to seriously obstruct the tide of passen-
ger travel and freight carriage from the
cast into New York city. The New York
senators stoutly supported the appropria—
tion for the proposed improvement.

Chief interest centered in a caucus of Re—
publican senators held to consider a propo-
sition submitted by Senator Quay to pass
the Tariii bill, the Appropriation and other
important bills and then adjourn Congress.
As this proposed order of busrness left out
allt‘onsideration of the Federal Elections’
bill, it was hotly opposed by Senators Hoar,
Edmunds, Spooner and other friends of the
measure. But the opponents of that bill
won the battle, it is stated, by barely one
majority. There are many senators who
favor the bill, parse, but who deem its
present consideration inexpedient for the
reasons, among others, that it cannot be
passed in season to become operative in the
coming fall elections, and its consideration
means a prolongation of the session for
months to come, if not up to the date of the
'meeting of the second session of this con-
gress on the first Monday of December.
That the ablest, best, and most earnest
friends of the Republican party in the Sen.
ate, are practically wide apart. if not hope-
lessly split asunder on this issue is the only
signitlczmtteature of the situation. That
such a law if enact:~d, will prove wholly
abortive, if its executi: n were attempted at
the South, is fully believed by those best
infcrtned on the subject of the southern po-
litical situation, and that more is to be
hoped for from the Farmers’ Alliance or-
ganizations in the southern states, to split
up the bunker or bourbon democracy, than
~ any such federal laws. On the other hand,
the sober, solid and patriotic feeling of all
honest, fair dealing citizens of the Republic
is that: the Southern states shall not con-
tinue to enjoy their unjust excess of Con-
gressional representation and their unfair,
preponderance in the electoral college,
while denying the ballot to the enfranchis-
ed colored race .This question is one of
august importance and gravity and ought
not to be hustled through Congress when
every member is impatient to get away. It
is a thousand pities that this measure could
not have been brought up in the earlier
days of the session instead of during its ex-
piring hours. However, the democrats
from the North and South would have re-
sorted to every species of fillibustering de-
vice to have defeated its enactment, as reso-
lutely at the opening as they will at the
closing hours of the session.

Monday Senator Edmunds treated the
Senate to a genuine surprise in coming out
strongly f or Mr. Blaine’s reciprocity scheme.
Mr. E. is conceded to be the ablest states-
man in that body, and his unequivocal
adoption of the wise and sagacious Blaine
policy was a sensational surprise to both
sides of the chamber, as it will be a delight
to all the sensible people of the country.
The carefully prepared amendment he in-
troduced had undoubtedly been considered
in the Foreign Relations committee. It
empowered the President to admit free
sugar and other products from the Central
and. South American republics, including
the dependencies of Spain, provided those
countries permit the free introduction of
the products of the United States. This,
with other propositions laid before them,
will be considered by the Finance committee.

Senators express surprise at the rapid
manner in which the River and Harbor
bill was pushed through the Senate. Mr.
Vest, of Missouri, had a long speech pre-
pared against the Hennepin Canal feature
of the measure, and Mr. Collom, of Illinois,
a speech for the canal, but they got together
and, pairing on the debate, both withheld
their orations and thus a day was saved.

It is believed that the question of bridg-
ing the Harlem river will be the only point
in contention in conference, the Senate
(:onfcrees demanding high stationary and
the House low drawbridges. The prospects
are the Senate will prevail. It is now
hoped that an agreement will be reached on
the Tarifl bill similar to that which cur-
tailed debate on the River and Harbor bill,
and that the tarifi debate will be cut short
after this week. Especially is this true if
the Quay resolution is adopted,which seems
probable.

Monday’s congressional reports say that a
republican senator from the far west, who
has voted against the consideration of the
Elections bill at this session, says: “There
has been a fear expressed as to whether the
adoption of the Quay resolution might not
cepardize the interests of reciprocity in the
Senate. This is hardly a danger. It ‘will

‘I be remembered that Senator Aldrich, who
is practically in charge of the Tariff bill, is
strongly inclined towards the reciprocity
idea, and it certainly is no longer a secret
that Mr. Aldrich is heartily in sympathy
with the spirit of the Quay resolution.
Indeed it will be admitted, soontr or later,
that the Rhode Island senator himself is
the author of the bombshell which the
Pennsylvania senator introduced, and that
Mr. Quay has fathered it because he was
about the only senator who did not fear to
face the storm which everyone knew the
resolution would call up. Once it is deter-
mined in the Senate that the democrats
have nothing to fear from the Elections bill
there will be a decided falling off of needless
amendments and useless speeches on the
Tariff bill, and all debate will be confined to
such subjects as reciprocity, which have not
been completely discussed up to the present
time. Ithink’ we shall adjourn Congress
within a month and that reciprocity will be
adoptec .”

Mr. Quay gave formal notice this morn—
ing of his intention to ask the Senate to
adopt the order proposed by him last Satur—
day to commence voting on the Tariff bill
on the 30th of August, and to postpone till
next session all other legislative business
except the classes of bills therein specified.

Mr. Hoar—Let it go over.

Mr. Edmunds—Let it. go under. [Laugh—
ter_.]

The notice went over till lo—morrow.
The Senate then proceeded to the consid—
eration of the Deficiency bill.

The Senate before it adjourned passed the
General Deficiency bill, with all the amend—
ments agreed upon in committee of the
whole, including those appropriating $1,—
239,688 for the payment of the French
spoliationclaims.

Hill for Lieutenant-Governor.

The GAZETTE cordially endorses the
nomination of (ax—Senator E. J. Hill for
Lieutenant—Governor on the republican
ticket. Indeed a cursory glance over the
field and the forces fails to discover a
more advisable ora more desirable selec-
tion, and it is gratifying to note that
Senator Hill’s name is being received
throughout the state with a respectful
consideration that is most encouraging to
his advocates.

There is now no reason to doubt that
General S. E. Merwin, of New Haven,
our present Lieutenant-Governor, will
head the republican ticket as the party’s

'candidate for Governor, whose immense

popularity, which has repeatedly been
demonstrated, would, if rte—enforced by
the energy and aggressive vigor that
Senator Hill’s nomination would impart
to the campaign, carry the state by a
clear and indisputable majority. Senator
Hill would be to the cause a tower of
strength, especially in Fairfield county.
and here such a tower of strength is likely
to be needed, for the indications all agree
that the democratic horde of Guberna-
torial possibilities is narrowing down to
Fairfield county, and Colonel Stevenson,
about whose priestly head the nominating
lightning is vividly flashing in dangerous
proxlmity, would be a foeman, to check—
mate whom our shrewdest, strongest
champion would be obliged to bestir him-
self. We second Senator Hill’s nomina-
tion.

 

 

+
Senator Hill’s Boom.
The policy delineated by our Norwalk
contemporary seems to us not only wise,
but politic, and the names suggested meet
our hearty approval, and possibly it may
not be ill timed to suggest that the blank
left for Lieutenant~Governor be filled with
the name of Ex-Senator E. J. Hill, of
Norwalk. Certainly no worthier selection
can be made; a man of high character,
with a most successful legislative exper-
ience, and admirably equipped for the
duties of the office ; and, withal, well and
favorably known throughout the State,
his name will add strength to any ticket.
Why not nominate Hon. Ebenezer J. Hill,
of N orwalk, for Lieutenant-Governor ?” ~—
Rook'ville Journal.
Republican victory would be surely fore-
ordamed, with a ticket headed by Merwin
and Hill; Henry for treasurer, and, as we
suggested last week, f‘a secretary of state
from Hartford, and the granger element
represented in the candidate for comp-
troller.” The candidacy of Senator Hill
would infuse a degree of vim and vigor
into the campaign that would prove
absolutely irresistible. His record as a
legislator and politician proves him to be
endowed, in an eminent degree, with the
attributes of statesmansblp, and hislinflu-
ence among men is undeniable. As an
orator he takes a high rank, and his pub—
lic utterances are forcible, logiacl, pointed
and eloquent. It is With patriotic pride
and pleasure that we nominate the Hon.
E. J. Hill for Lieutenant-Governor.—
Record.
The above is all right and entirely
flattering to our local pride, but a host of
Mr. Hill’s ardent friends want him to
carry this hard district in a race for Con-

gress this tall.

The Prohibitionists.

The Connecticut Probibitionists met in
Hartford, on Wednesday, and placed the
first state ticket in the field. The plat-
form reiterates the former expressions of
the party on all the paramoth issues now
before the state and nation, and expresses
undimlnished confidence in the ultimate
triumph of the Prohibition cause. The
ticket nominated is as follows :—

Governor—P. M. Augur, of Middlcfield.

Lieutenant-Governer—De Witt C. Pond,
of Hartford.

Secretary of State—Henry R. Palmer,
of Stonington.

Treasurer—John B. Smith,
Britain.

Comptroller—Fred. M. Hawley, of New
Canaan.

The Niantic Encampment.

From the New Haven Palladium, of
Tuesday, we crib the following account
of the Niantic encampment :—

The entire Connecticut National Guard
spent last night on the tented field at
Nlantic. The four regiments, battery and
independent companies of colored troops
which constitute the little army of the
Nutmeg state marched with proud mien
into camp yesterday forenoon and soon
Camp Embler was in full blast. The
militiamen marched from the depot in a
drizzling rain, but before the boys had got
through unpacking the rain had ceased,
the clouds parted and vanished and 01d
Sol was smiling down his warmest smile
upon the busy warriors.

It is not pajtiality to say that the Second
regiment wal ted away with the honors of
the first day. It was the first organization
to reach the camp after Battery A, and
when Colonel Doherty made his returns to
Adjutant General Dickinson he was able
to account for 075 men that he led into
camp. This was the largest number ever
shown up in camp by any regiment.

The Second was followed speedily by
the Third, Fourth and First regiments in
the order named. Company H, of the
Second, came down with the First. By
noontlme the camp was assuming an
orderly appearance and the men were
busy establishing themselves comfortably
in their quarters. There was anypumber
of trunks, bags and boxes to be unpacked,
as the order against extra baggage was
not enforced and no attempt was made to
interfere with anybody’s luggage. Mem-
bers of the Second regiment were specu-
lating all the way down to Niantic as to
whether they would be deprived of the
privilege of taking into camp all the
boxes carried on the train and were even
surprised that it was not even hinted that
they had too much luggage.

The Third regiment has the right of line
this year, with the Second next, then the
Fourth and the First, with the colored
troops and the battery on the left. The
grounds are in good condition. the storm
of Sunday night not having done any
damage.

Brigadier General Watson had spent
Sunday in camp. Company K, First reg-
iment, arrived in Niantic Saturday but
put up at the Morton house until the
arrival of the rest of the regiment yester-
day morning.

Colonel W. E. Morgan, the assistant
quartermaster general, has received much
creditable mention for the condition of the
camp. The sixty men in his department
have had to work hard but the splendid
result of their labors is to be seen in the
more than 1,000 Splendidly appointed
tents now glistening on the Niantic field
where only a few mess houses and stables
stood two weeks ago.
The appetites 0f the militiamen were
whettcd by the travel and labors of the
forenoon, and dinner was welcome when
the signal was given at 12.30. At 12.30
there was guard mount, followed by bat-
talion drill, from 2.15 to 3.15 police call,
giggade dress parade at 5.30 and supper at
.v.) .
A short encampment history will be of
interest at this time. The first encamp-
ment at Niantlc was in 1873, when the
First and Third regiments were ordered
into the field for a week. It was not until
1880 that the idea of a permanent state
camp was advanced. In the report of the
quarter-master-general, L. W. Wessells,
of Litchfield, who was on the staff of
Governor Charles B. Andrews, now chief
justice of the state, the grounds at Niantic
were reCUmmended as a suitable place for
the annual encampment. The legislature
of 1881 appropriated $10,000 for the pur-
chase of the land, which contained sixty-
fivc acres in one of pleasantest localities
in East Lyme, on the Shore Line Railroad.
It was finally obtained through a process
of condemnation, the case being carried
to the courts for that purpose by Augustus
Brandagec, of New London, who was
selected by the legislature to represent the
state in the controversy.
Three purchases have since been made,
one by Quartermaster General Thomas Mc-
Manus of Hartford, under General Waller,
one by Quartermaster General Arthur L.
Goodrich, under Governor Harrison, and
another recently by a commission ap-
pointed by Governor Bulkeley. The
state’s total expenditure on the grounds
will aggregate not far from $40,000.
In 1882 the entire brigade of four regi-
ments encamped on the grounds for the
first time, the camp being named in honor
of Adjutant General George M. Harmon,
who was the chief of Governor Bigelow‘s
staff. From that time until now the camp
has been named on alternate years after
the adjutant general of the state.
In all respects the N iantic camp ground
isa model one. The parade is level and
sufficiently large for all brigade and bat-
tery evolutions. The mess quarters easily
accommodate the entire National Guard.
There are ample stabling accommodations
and buildings in plenty and conveniently
arranged for quartermaster’s supplies.
Driven wells are distributed over the
premises so that a plentiful supply of the
purest water is furnished to every com-
pany at accessible points.

Obituary.

Mrs. John D. Grifliths died at her home
in Ansonla, Monday morning, of heart
disease and dropsy. Deceased will be
better remembered by many of our resi-
dents by her maiden name—Miss Mary
Hannah Wheater. Sheiwas born in
Leeds, Yorkshire, England, in 1833. Her
parents emigrated to this country, when
she and her only brother, Mr. Jabez
Wheatcr, their only children, were quite
young, and took up their residence on
Belden avenue, being among the first to
build on that street. For many years, up
to the tlme of her marriage to Mr. Griffiths,
a few years since, she was an cmploye in
the Merwin street shirt factory, and was
foralong time in charge of thc ironing
department. After her marriage she re-
moved from Nor-walk and took up her
residence in Ansonia. Deceased was a
member of St. Paul's Episcopal church,
and was an exemplary and consistent
Christian woman. She was ready and
active in all good deeds, and was a zeal-
ous worker for the church she loved.
Her loss will be mourned by her many
friends in Norwalk, as well as by her
husband, her step children, to whom she
had beena true mother, and other near
relatives. “May she rest in peace.”

A large circle of Bridgeport, Westport
and Norwalk friends has recently been
called upon to mourn the loss by death of
a beloved and highly valued one, Miss
Mary 0., daughter of the late Ezra and
Hannah Morgan, of Newtown, and sister
of the Elm. Daniel Nash Morgan, of
Bridgeport. Miss Morgan was an indi-
vidual who took pride in and was govern-
ed by principle. God gave her not only a
mind but a conscience. Her thoughts as
well as her words were true, and her
whole hearing was of that gentle and
delightful dignity, which is the mark of a
sincere character. She was a poetic, and
yet one of those princely personages the
tendencies of whose nature are always
towards the real and right. She inherited
very fine sensibilities, was devoted to her
family, and her tender cure, fora long
period, for her sainted mother during her
declining years was extremely beautiful.
Since her mother’s dcceasc in 1883, and
until her own late illness, she has for the
larger portion of the time kept up the old
hospitable Newtown home, from which
bereaved hearts will sorely miss the
spirit that has been such a sunbeam
there. She was buried from Trinity
church, and laid to rest in the family plot
at the foot of the wide and handsome
Newtown street.
