Senator John S. Seymour is as posi- tive that Grover Cleveland will be the Chicago nominee, as Gen. Clarkson is that Mr. Blaine ought to be at Minne- Indced, the Senator’s enthusi- asm extends to a conviction that Mr. Cleveland will be renomi'na‘ted by a wild acclamation and without a ballot, and gives yesterdayls results in New Jersey as an instance in point, confirm- ing the faith that is in him. ~00. Sensational Sheets not Shut Out. The efforts of the people who have been urging Congress to prohibit the transmission through the mails of pub- lications containing what is known as police news have been fruitless, for the bill introduced for this purpose by Sen- ator Dolph was adversely reported to .the SenateWednesday from the Commit- :stee on Post-offices and Post Roads. The bill provided for an amendment to the ‘Reviscd Statutes so as to exclude from the mails any publication devoted to .criminal news, police reports, or ac- counts of criminal deeds, or pictures, and stories of immoral deeds, lust or .crime. --=-_ -“u -.-_‘ ¢»~-_._. -u... At Sedgwlck’s Grave. Memorial Day, May 30. will be cele- brated at the grave of General Sedg- wick at Cornwall Hollow by the citi- zens of Cornwall, jained by the Grego- ry Post of Cornwall and Sharon. Gen- eral Sedgwick was of the Sixth Arm 3' Corps and was killed at the battle of Spottsylvania Court House, Va., May 9, 18-34. General Martin T. McMahon, adju- tant-general of the Sixth Army Corps, and who stood beside Sedgwick when he was shot, will deliver the address. General McMahon was United States district attorney for New York and is now a state senator. Several others of the surviving members of General Sedgwick’s staff are expected to be present. A general invitation is extended to the Grand Army Posts of the state and all retired soldiers to be present. The editor of the szanE chanced to be within a few feet of Gen. Sedg- wick at the moment he was shot and accompanied his remains. under a flag of tru :e. to Falmouth and thence to Washington. The Coming of the Floods. Fifty million dollars is a tremendous loss by a spring flood, even though it be distributed over the entire Mississip- pi Valley. It is possible that the esti- mate of the losses by the flood which is now raging and submerging towns, carrying away houses and inmates, wrecking bridges and washing out rail- way embankincnts in all parts of the West, from Pittsburg to Omaha and from the Dominion line to the Gulf of Mexico, is too high. and that when the waters have receded much that is now regarded as a total loss will still be found to be fast at one. end and but lit- tle the worse for the washing it has re- ceived. At the best, however, the loss both of property and life will be very great. The unusually heavy rains have swelled all the streams over their banks, with the result' that all that is floatable and not securely tied has gone on a journey to the Gulf of Mexico or to be stranded . on some other man’s farm as driftwood. The farmers will not be able to plant ~their Spring crops till the water sub- sides and the land becomes tillable again, which will insure late planting in all the river, valleys and a chance that corn may get nipped with the frost at the other end of the season. The winding up of the storm season with a fall of snow in Iowa and Minnesota is an occurrence as unusual as the unpre- cedented floods, which adds to the gen- eral discomfort of everybody and to the discouragement of the farmers in particular. Who will the Candidate Be? As the time draws nigh for the meet- ing of the two great National Conven- tions, the interest in the probable nom- inees of the respective, parties w5xes hotter. The New York Herald,with its accustomed, humor, thus presents a bird’s-eye view of the situation and says that General Clarkson, chairman of the Republican National Committee, when forecasting the future, said that his personal relations with President Har- rison are of the happiest, but—— Mr. Thomas C. Platt has also remark- wEE'KLY - NORWALK-P GAZETTE. ed that President Harrison’s adminis- tration commends itself in many im- . po'rtant particulars, but—— 9 The Hon. Matt Quay in a recent in- terview declared that President Harri- son has won popular confidence by his stérling Americanism, whatever that may mean, and that he would make a good candidate for the party, but—— If you should run through the whole listof Republican leaders the majority , oféfihem would insist——the interview be- 5 ing for public use only—that Harrison 5 is a man of renown and integrity, that ' he could give the Democratic banner— 3 bearer a very strong race under other circumstances. but _ ‘ These “ but-s ” are lying along the ' political roadside in such quantities I that the curious observer naturally in- quires what they mean. . You need not look far, however, to, discover that the finished sentence i would read some what in this wise :— ’ Harrison, if we can’t help ourselves ; Blaine, if we can possibly persuade him , to accept. ' There is no doubt whatever that, Mr. I Blaine stands first. A thousand ru- ,3 mors as to his health are in the air and another thousand as to his willingness to allow his name to be used. He is the mysterious man of the time. But politics is a game, and it is pos- sible that Blaine is to be used as a club to get Harrison out of the way and to clear the field for Sherman. The situation, therefore, is interest— ing and also significant. If it were be- lieved that Harrison’s record would carry him through, the Republican re- bellion would subside at once. But the leaders of the party are tremulous and timid. They desire to take as few chances as possible, for the drift of pub- lic opinion has mightily set in the other direction. They know, without being told. that it will require their best man and behind him their best efforts to l wrest the victory from the Democrats in November. Therefore, they will probably drop ' Harrison if they can find any other ac- ceptable man, and drop him surely if Blaine will but lift his hand in sign of acceptance. It goes without saying that Blaine would give the country a rattling and . exciting campaign. He is the most pop- 5 ular man in the country at the present moment, and if he enters the race we shall have some gorgeous .spectacles to behold. The Democrats must look sharply for a candidate, one who can carry New York tobegin with, and then carry the North-western States to end with. We thereforelmakc use of General Clarkson’s rhetoric and say :—- Cleveland seems to be enjoying a rather considerable boom just now, but l 1 Senator Hill would undoubtedly make an efficient President, but A \Vestern man,however, would make an available candidate without any “but”; ' Despite the above from the Herald, our own “ Tom.” Waller assures usthat Mr. Cleveland is sure to be nominated and equally sure to carry Connecticut. ‘0- From the Skies. The world of science is at present in- terested in a new comet that in some respects, the facetious Washington Post says, is a remarkable departure from the general run of these celestial visi- tors. This variation from the rule is not in any of the established habits of the class. These, as is well known, have rendered them the outlaws, the roysterers, so to Speak, of the universal stellar system. Apparently bound by none of the regulations that obtain among the planets; rushing into the sun’s face or turning their backs on him as it pleased them; staying out all hours of the day and night for cen- turies at a stretch, they have as mem- bers of the usually steady star com- munity, altogether been carrying things with a hand that high was no name for. \Vhile acknowledging with regret that the conduct of these long-haired tramps of the sky as a body is not all it would like, astronomy has still a good word to say of those with whom it claims to stand on a somewhat familiar footing. Particularly is this the case anent the orderly bearing of those va- grant visitants who seem to actually shorten their sprees in space for no other evident purpose than to drop in on us regularly every few years. But this new comet under considera- tion, has nothing in common either .with these exceptions to the rule or the vast army of celestial wanderers who apparently know no rule. It is an as- tronomical curio, an unique. In short, it has eight tails, all of which, like an honest author’s, come out of its own head. While some of the more exclusive comets, moving in the higher circles, have two tails, and an occasional mem- ber of what may be called the come- tary Four Hundred has three, an oc- This comet was first discovered in the United States, and it is in acon- stellation that in due season hangs in the zenith on the meridian of Colum- bus, 0. .
