Our conceptions of space and speed and distance, practically limited to terrestrial measurements, are wholly inadequate to deal with astronomical facts. Astronomical spaces and figures convey only a vague general conception of witness. But we can all “realize” that in the circling year we have now reached the middle line, which intro- duces to the world’s northern hemis- phere the pleasant season we Americans call “the fall”——a more peetical designa- tion than Autumn,and more descriptive. It brings the fall of the leaf. It brings the reddening vine, on the wall and the red or the yellow leaf; the cool, crisp air, so reviving after the long, hot Summer. It is a varied and immeasurable blessing that is given to dwellers in the temperate zone by the inclination of our planet’s axis to the rock; ' plane of its orbit; for this inclination of - ' than ever before. 289:9 makes the in estimable advantage ‘ . 9 seasons. _ .. OtTfieir‘ circling dance, through light and shade, through heat and cold, is almost the chief thing in the astronomi- cal order that gives the zest and joy of life. But the Fall is largely a bright inspiring time. It keeps much of the sunshine, and tempers it to a delightful animating effect. It is with us in the north, the ending, rather than the be- ginning, of the harvest season ; and it brings not only the fleeting glory of the painted woods, but the Sportsman’s opening day. It is the season of abun- dance, and of the return of many of the delights of life, even if it does herald “the closing scene” and the coming of the long northern winter. And the winter itself is one of the blessings of the system. Without its tonic change, the people of this country never would have conquered the wilderness and built railroads across the continent. The dwellers in the climes of endless summer lack energy, courage, action. These are given us by the change of the seasons.” ,._____..,______ Sadly Pathetic. The most pathetic feature of the cy- clone which wrecked the business "5.80- ion of Little Rock was the destruction of the State Insane Asylum. The wreck- ing of the homes of families whose mem— here are in’the possession. of all their faculties is sad-enough, the destruction of the place of refuge‘of those who are practically helpless, through the loss of their wits is appalling. As if the loss of home and shelter wasnot a sufficient misfortune to the unfortunate inmates of the Arkansas Insane Asylum. the death of the physician in charge isladded to increase the horror of the situation. Without home and shelter and deprived of the guidance and ministrations ofa sympathetic and experienced physician the condition of the inmates of the any. lumlis pitiable indeed and appeals to the charitable impulses of all lovers of hu- manity. .. Important and True; " I The Hartford Times says that “hard times don’t seem to interrupt girls’ edu- cation.” This is both important and true.

WAR , - ‘ . WGURBESPUNDENT. BY THE Editor of the Gazette. Copyrighted 1894. CHAPTER'XKIV. Of the famous Fifth Connecticut, it is historical that its first brigade com- mander was the heroic Gen. George H. Thomas. The first introduction to the enemies’ fire this regiment had was a brisk engagement companies E and F had with the forces of Stonewall Jack- son on the banks of the Potomac. The Fifth crossed over into Virginia March 2d, ’62, with Gen. N. P. Banks’ com- mand, had a skirmish With the rebels at Falling Waters, and next day, afterwa thirty miles march, stampeded their pickets, and on the 12th drove their main force out of Winchester. Details of companies E and F later on dashed into the rebel lines and captured Co. H of Ashby’s cavalry. On May 25 the Fifth had-a. sharp en- gagement with Ewell’s div1s10n and re- pulsed them with heavy loss. On J une 3d it had a skirmish with the enemy at Luray and drove them out of the v11- lage. July 7th the Fifth crossed the Blue Ridge and joined Gen. Pope’s command near W arrentown. August 9th it was in the hottest of the fight at Cedar Mountain. It met its heaviest loss of any single day of its serVice in this terrible battle, there being 48 killed, 67 wounded and 64 captured, out of some 350 engaged. Every officer but four of the eight companies in action were either killed, wounded or cap- tured. Sergt. Oliver Brady of Nor- walk was among the killed. It was at the minor skirmishes and engagements at Culpepper, Bappahannock .Station, Bristoe Station, Sulphur Springs and Chantilly; The day before the battle of South Mountain the Fifth was sent to guard Frederick, and there remained until ordered in December to join the Army of the Potomac before Fredericksburg. It then went into camp at Stafford Court House for the winter of ’62-3. It was in' the wild night struggle in which Stonewall Jackson was killed, presuma- bly by his own men. The Fifth reached Gettysburg on the night of July 1st and was in line of battle next morning. It was on the right of Culp’s Hill and then advanced to the support of Gen. Sickles. It was badly cut to pieces in this crucial fight of the war and was in the advance of the rebel persuit, after Gen. Mead had consented to let our troops follow up the fleeing rebels as far as Winchester. In September the Fifth having been attached to the Twentieth Corps, was sent under Hooker to join the Depart- ment of the Cumberland and arrived in Tennessee in October. It was on this trip that Albert Downs of Norwalk, was killed by striking a low bridge, while sitting on the top of a box car. In the Atlanta campaign the Fifth was engaged in the fights at Besaca, Cassville,Dallas, Lost Mountain, Kene- saw, Culp’s Farm, Peach-'I‘ree-Creek and the siege of Atlanta. In one of these engagements, the Fifth marched up in front of the rebels With old glory gaily flying and the boys shouting at the tops of their voices, “The Battle Cry of Freedom,” and the song seemed to have demoraliZed the rebels more than their musket shots. November 15th the regiment left Atlanta With Sherman. in his renowned “March to the Sea.” _ _ The Fifth was the first regiment to march through the city of Atlanta,:as it chanced to be in the front of Sher- man’s columns, and had for more than a hundred days been almost constantly under the enemy’s fire. November 15th the regiment left Atlanta with Sherman and made about as brilliant a record on the famous “March to the Sea,” as foragers, as they did as“ fight. ers, and took a conspicuous part in the subsequent siege of Savannah. It took part in the battles of Chesterfield, S. C. Bentonville and Silver Bun, . ., which ended the struggle with J ohn- son’s army in March ’65. It then marched to and through Richmond and over the northern Virginia battle-fields to Washington, where it participated in the monster “Grand Renew,” and was finally mustered out at Alexandria, Va., July 19th, ’65, haying fought more battles and marched more miles than any other Connecticut. regiment. ' It is reputed to have built in all, miles upon miles of breast-works—some of its officers claim fully one hundred—yet it never chanced to fight from their protecting shelter, but had to face the enemy in the open, in every engage- ment. It was never driven from its position in a single instance, except at Cedar Mountain, where having pushed its way into the face of the enemy and captured the key to the battle-field, it was left unsupported, and assailed from front and flank by a largely superior force, and was compelled to fallback. The complete list of the Fifth’s en- gagements, are thus chronologically recorded : Winchester, Va., March 12 .4 n Entertaining and I nstructivc Home J 0 ._.—r ’62 ; Hudson’s Corners, Va., April 16, ' ’62; Winchester, Va., May 25, ’62 ; Cedar Mountain, Va., August 9, ’62; Chantilly, Va., Sept. 1, ’62; Chancel- lorsville, Va., May.3, ’63; Gettysburg, P8,, July 3, ’63; Falling Waters, Va., July 14, ’63; ReSaca, Ga., May 15, ’64; Cassville, Ga" May 19, ’64 ; Dallas, Ga.

In connection with the Sherman March to the See, an interesting inci- dent never before published, maybe here appropriately related. Sherman and his great army had been “lost to view” for many days when a letter reached me from the Tribune office de- siring me to privately interview Presi- dent Lincoln and ascertain from him at what point on the Atlantic sea-board Sherman was expected to break out. The letter went on to state that the Tribune had been exceedingly unfer- tunate, in that both Mr. A. D. Rich- ardson and Mr. Henri Brown were captured by the rebels in their efforts to run the rebel blockade on the Miss- issippi river, and were captives in An- dersonville prison, and of course were not With the Sherman forces. as other» wise they'would have been ordered to be. The same afternoon I was admit- ted to the executive office, and waiting until the President and I were alone, handed him the Tribune letter. I could see his eye twinkle and his mobile countenance change to a dozen difi'er- ent expressions, serious and comic, be- fore he finished its reading. Finally, Jumping to his feet, he seized the long pole or dressed stick kept to point up to the large U. S. map hanging upon the wall, and said :—“You see Sherman has crawled inside an egg shell and is out of view. I don’t know where he is or where he is coming out. Now, (pomting to the map) isn’t it likely that in case the confederates should oppose his progress by a strong force on this air line, terminating at or near Savannah, that he would make a de- tour and march down towards Mobile ? You see he has started for salt water, and will make the shortest cut possible, in view of the contingencies of getting enough supplies to feed his men and animals, and the avoidance of any dan- gerous conflicts with the enemy It seems to me if I were in good Uncle Horace’s fix, I would dispatch one man as soon as possible to Mobile. and _an-. other to Savannah, as I think one of them would thus be pretty sure to be on hand so near the wished-for spot, that on our army coming through and out of this end of the egg shell, he would soon know of it and get to it quickly.” “You see,” he kindly added, "I can’t get at it any nearer than that; and say, don’t you leak what I’ve hint- ed to you, for if Stanton got hold of it, he’d kill me.” I thanked him most sincerely, for I had succeeded beyond my most san- guine expectations. I pledged that no one should learn of it outside'the inner sanctum of the Tribune office in New York. “But Mr. President” I con- tinued, “up in Connecticut, we Yan- kees have an old proverb, ‘that one good turn deserves another.’ You have been so kind as to help me guess where our men should be, now will you please tell me how they can get there, with- out the Tribune buying or chartering a steamship.” “0 yes,” said he, “that part is easy enough, there are govern- ment vessels leaving New York nearly every day now, with supplies for our army whenever it turns up. The most of these are bound for Savannah, but others are sailing for Mobile, and you can get your men aboard one of these. If you can’t, let me know, and I’ll help you out, again—but mind, don’t let it get to Stanton’s ears. You see Stanton is the only fellow connected with this administration that I’m afraid of. You don’t know how terribly he scolds me whenever he catches me doing any- thing of this sort, but I love» Uncle Horace, and want to help you out. You see the Tribune has been with me about four days out of the seven all through the war, and I want'to prove my gratitude whenever I can.” It may be added that the Tribune got a man to Savannah only one day before Sherman's advance reached the outskirts of the disloyal Georgia city and commenced its siege. A Tribune correspondent also reached Mobile a few days later, only to get back and around to Savannah. The Tribune had as early and complete a history of that audacious but memorable march through the very heart ofthe cou- federacy as any other American news- paper, and for it, was entirely indebted to the generous and kindly nature of President Lincoln. His Secretary of War never knew of it, nor of many other similarly helpful suggestions, for which the Tribune was under deep ob- ligatit‘ins to Mr. Lincoln, and it is just to conclude that he never got “terribly scolded” for his confidential revela- tions. Nor was his confidence ever betrayed by anyTribnne correspondent. Every Town Has— A liar. A sponger. ’ A smart Aleck. A blatherskite. Its richest man. Some pretty girls. A girl that giggles.

Peckwell of Bridgeport and who at one timei‘carried on the harness busmess in the James block on Water street, this city, and Sidney Peckwell of Easton. The “suit is to recover on a note of $300 given to the Newark firm by John F. Peckwell and endorsed by Sidney Peck- welll The case is surrounded by pecu- liar circumstances and before matters are Settled may result seriously for both the defendants, and especially for Sid- ncy Peckwell, who is in danger of ar- rest On a claim of fraud and misrepre- sentation. . John F. Peckwell resides in. Bridge- portend for several years has been em- ployed by Bonneau & Co. of Patterson, N. J. The latter firm are wholesale harness makers, and Peckwell was their salesman for this district. Business has been dull of late and he'had found it hard to make both ends meet. It _is alleged that a few weeks ago he took the sample harness which he carried to ex- hibit to the trade and pawned them in a paWnshop for $200. He is also al- legecfto have collected several bills due to the company, as their authorized agent, and failed to make a return of the mOney to the company. A short timelafter these alleged transactions the Newark firm heard of them and sent a representative to Bridgeport for a settlement. Peckwell was unable to meet the de- mantle of the firm’s representative and called upon. his brother to assist him. It was agreed that Peckwell should give his note for $300, payable in 10 days without grace. The brother, Sid— ney Peckwell, claimed to have prop- erty in Easton and endorsed the note, which became due on October 1. When a. demand was made for the money, it was not forthcoming. At- torney Edwin F. Hall of Bridgeport, who represented the firm, was instruct- ed to bring suit to recover on the note. He did so and the papers were given to Sheriff Fenelon. He visited Easton to attach the property described in the note and found it in the possession of Peckwell’s father, who has a life in- terest in it. The endorsement of Sid- ney Peckwell therefore was of no value and it is said that the firm will proceed against him for fraudulent misrepre- sentation, unless a speedy settlement is made. _.____.,._____..
