All. save the chilling plash and icy rill
Of lonely brook. The ghastly turf. months
dead,
Half-bare in snowy shroud; the branches

The harp-strings where the winds at requiem

A dull-gray mass of cloud o’er all the land.-

A day ago; yet even now, the sunshine shakes
the cloud; ‘
The faintest green is piercing funeral shroud;
'l‘he brook flows warmer. and the solemn song

Not, king. and all a-thrill the earth shall be.—
The violet low, the bird in leafing tree.

DEAR GAZETTE:
The Washington Connecticut Associ-
ation gave a farewell dinner to COD-
gressman Russell, Thursday night,
prior to his departure for home. V .
The Senate Committee on Claims,
gave retiring Senator Spooner a swell
dinner, at Chamberlain’s, Thursday
night, at which President Harrison was
present. '
The final outcome in Congress, over
the World’s Fair appropriations is bet-
ter than anticipated, and by the time
of the meeting of the new Congress,
the Exposition will in all probability
have advanced so far, and taken on so
much more popular enthusiasm, as to
command liberal consideration at the
hands of the Government.
0n the 1st Of April, twelve addition-
al places will be added to the free de-
livery list. The superintendent of the
service, Major Pollock, has not yet
selected the additional places. New
Canaan has just been selected as one
of the experimental stations, and East
Norwalk‘is booked for the next one to
be selected in Connecticut.

COO——
General Sherman. on. Chiefs of Staff.
[New York Tribune]
The following letter from General
Sherman to Colonel D. C. Pavey, of
the NORWALK GAZETTE, was occasioned
by a letter which Colonel Charles Mar-
shall had written in which he said that
General Lee never had a chief~Of-staff :
St. Louis, Mo.. May 15, 1885.
Dear Sir: Yours of the 11th with in-
closure is received. I doubt not the
absolute truth of Charles Marshalf’s
statement. Lee, think of him as we
may as a patriot, was a soldler and a
general. He did his own thInkIng and
needed no “chief-Of—stafi’.” This word
..s of French origin, and we are not
French, but English, by nature.
An American general wants a good
adjutant, quarter-master, commISsary,
medical director, two, three or four
aids, some orderlies and clerks, and
will use each and all for every purpose.
They have their legal rank. whlch reg-
ulates their pay, but in a battle or cam—
paign they may perform whatever duty
presses at the moment. I don’t seehthe
use of a chief-Of-stafi‘.
Every general generally has one of
his aids to watch his private and seml-
official correspondence, who is natural--
ly brought into more intimate relations
with his chief than the adjutant-general
who receives the formal official reports
and makes the published orders.
Appreciating the compliment of your
letter, I am your friend,
“I. T. Sherman.

Wanted to Get Home.
A dust-begrimed farmer with aregu-
lar Jed Prouty make-up andJosh Whit-
comb accent walked into Pol-ice Head-
quarters yesterday and asked for “In-
spector Barnes.” Doorman Schick,
whose duty it is to directall inquirers,
asked him what brought him there and
the farmer explained. “I’m in the
milk business and live jest out of New
Haven, when I’m tu hum. I kim down
ter New York yesterday ter do some
business, and plied ’bout $34 in my
pocket. I fell in with a nice “young
feller who borrered it fer a few min-
utes, and some how’r nuther we haven’t
seen each other since.. Now I heard
what a hull-souled, good-hearted feller
Barnes was, and I want ter know if he
wouldn’t lend me twelve-shilling’s ter,
get me hum.” He was directed to the
oflice Of the Commissioners of Charities
and Correction.—[To-day’s New York

Horse Badly Frightened.
During the parade this noon of the
Atkinson & Cook ministrel band in
Wall street, a horse belonging to M.
Roberts. . the milkman, became badly
frightened and dashed upon the side—
walk in front of Hoyt’s shoe store,
where he was caught and held despite
his struggles, and subsequently turned
to the highway. With one man cling-
ing to the headstall the horse started on
another fierce run, but was stopped in
front of Bob. Adams’, the man at the
headstall being reinforced by two or
three other men just in time. People
. who heard the music Of the minstrels
didn’t wonder that the horse was almost
scared to death.

\Voodmont, March T.—---Many owners
of summer residences are making vast
improvements here. and many new cot—
tages are being erected. Indications
are that the coming season will be a'
very successful one. Among other ru-
mored improvements there, it is report-
ed that a new depot will be built. This
it is said, will be erected shortly. A
railroad official has told a number Of
citizens that the company intended to
erect shortly a brick station, similar to
that at Branford, Conn.

Stafford, March 7.——Respecting the
abduction of the Moulton child it ap-
pears that the child’s father refuses to
live with the mother, and cares noth-
ing for the child. The mother has
' lived, with E. \V. Pease, the proprietos
of ashooting gallery in the Bowery,
New York, and alleges that it wasa
disreputable place, and that she was
obliged to leave Pease on account of
cruelty. Pea-5e claimed when in Staf-
ford that he was the legal guardian of
the child. The mother, however,
claims that he has no legal right what-
ever to the child, and will institute
legal proceedings for its recovery.
”Titan-ing}; Florida.
Speaking of Florida as a winter re-
sort, a sojourner says, that as a rule
Northern visitors to Florida go there
at the wrong time of the year, and
most of them are satisfied to shut them-
selves up in the big hotels, either at
Jacksonville or St.- Augustine, and
spend the most of their time lounging
on the big porches, For this reason
they get little or no benefit from their
visit, and carry away with them a very
limited conception of the beauties as
well as the healthful properties of the
State. If, instead of timing their visit
in January or February, they would
choose April and May, which are the
most delightful months in the whole
season, and would take the trouble to
visit points of interest in the interior
of the State, they would get a very
different and a more accurate idea of
the beauties of Florida as a winter re-
sort. In April and May the tempera—
ture is uniformly about 80 degrees, the
atmosphere dry and clear, and the or-
ange groves, as well as all the natural
wild flowers, which exist in great va-
riety, are in bloom; and this is the most
delightful time for visitors tO see Flor—
ida at its best. Most Northern visitors
go there earlier in the \Vinter, and
then leave for home just when the best
part of the season begins.

examine nothing but type-written ar-

a rumpus. Publishers, editors
syndicate managers approve of this new ‘
departure. The vast army of writers,
however, are not at all unanimous in
praise of the innovation. To a great
many of them it would make no differ—
ence if every purchaser of literary
wares in the city should adopt the new
rule. There are scores Of clever writers
who never submit to publishers any-
thing but type-written copy, I know

machines and construct their stories
and type-write them at the same time.

conform to a literary market whose
door was shut against chirography.
The maker of
the new law asserts that he has found
no falling Off as yet in the matter placed
at his dispoal. Besides this, as‘he is
obliged to read hundreds of articles a
month, the strain on his eyes has been
materially lessened. I believe that the
politic author who , wants his articles
read within a reasonable time after
submission will gamble enough on his
ability to stand the cost pertaining to

Rule 3 to the rules committee. Mr. Jacobs
moved resumption of general business.

Whole matter on the table. Both sides
seemed determined to fight the thing out,
and the vote was solidly a. party one. The
motion was lost. -
Mr. Cantor moved to lay the motion on
the table for the purpose of receiving the
reports of committees. Lost. Mr. Cantor
said that out of courtesy to the assembly
messages should be received. He moved
to lay the matter on the table. Lost.
Lieutenant Governor Jones ruled that
the reception of messages from the assem-
bly \ was privileged, and Mr. Erwin imme-
diately appealed from the decision of the
chair. Mr. Jacobs, who had taken his own
seat. objected to the appeal on the ground
that. it was out Of order. NO decision was
given, and the discussion Of the constitu-
tional question was again taken up, Mr.
Linson arguing at length. The senate
then took a recess.

LONDON, March 7.—Buen_os Ayres ad—
vices state that a government decree sus-
pends business at the custom house, the
banks and generally for two days, because
of a run upon the Provincial bank. The
decree declares that, in view of the dis-
turbed condition of trade and finances, and
the anxiety caused by fear of a panic, the
government proclaims Friday and Satur-
day, March 6 and 7', to be holidays. It is
known, however, that the real reason for
the government‘s action is the desire to
save the Provincial bank.
An arrangement has been made whereby
120 merchants will loan the government
320.000.000. It has been decided to make
no fresh issue Of paper money and to abol-
ish the 2 per cent. tax on bank deposits.

finance. has resigned. It is expected'that
he will be succeeded by Sen or \Vir'zmrra.
