down the signs from the building,
smashing out the glass from the street
lamps, washing off the dirty street P

ticularly severe. The City of New
York for New York did not venture to
start till about half past one.

regiments writiner to a friend in New
Haven, of the battle of Fredericks
burg says: one thing I must mention

The 27th Connecticut Regiment was

they were so fresh they knew little
about loading and firing. Their vet
eran companions exuected them to
run, of course, under the first shelling;

The Norwich Propellors.
Jan. 15. 1863. The arrival of the
Quinebaug at New Orleans has been
reported. The fact that " four com
panies of the Massachusetts 42nd
Regiment, were captured at Galveston
has led to a belief that either me
Charles Osgood, or the Shetucket, or
both, were taken, as it is known that
they .carried companies belonging to
that regiment. It' is probable, how
ever that these boats, if they were
really at Galveston, were among the
vessels mentioned by the rebel general
Magruder as having "eseape'H ignomi
ously under a. flag of truce."
Capt. Charles Harris of the. Mich
igan 4th Regiment is mentioned as
among the first to cross the river at
the time of the attack upon the
rebel rifle-pits at Fredericksburg. He
formerly belonged in Preston.
Norwich and Worcester Dividend.

Worcester R. R. Co. has declared a

ernment tax.

Eierhth Regiment, has arrived home on
a brief furlough.
50 Births In Preston.
Jan. 17, 1S63. In the town of Pres
ton in 1862 there were 50 births, males
23, fema'- 27, nine marriages and 46
deaths.
Isaac Treby, the veteran clerk of
the New London post office expired in
that city on Wednesday the 14th, aged
67. For more than 27 years he had
been employed in that office.
The 21st Connecticut and 4th Rhode
Island regiments have been detached
from Col. Harland's brigade and
formed with some others into a new
brigade under command of Col Dutton
of the 21st, but still remain in the
same division under Col. Getty. This
change relieves Gen. Harland's brigade,
which was already too large, of two
regiment. Colonel Dutton, says the
the New Haven Resister, bears the
reputation of a prompt aid efficient
officer, and will no doubt do Justice to
himself and the very excellent troops
which compose his command.
NO SCARE OVER THREAT
ON HARBOR APPROPRIATION.
New Londoners See the Hand of Cad
well's Friends in It.
Commenting on the story just pub
lished and charged to Chairman Ed
ward H. Warner of the commission on
roads, rivers and bridges, as well as
the auxiliary commission on steamship
terminads at New London, Mayor Ma
han of that city said yesterday there
is not the slightest danger that the
new legislature will pass an act repeal
ing the authority for the $1,000,000
harbor Improvement.
The way the story goes, Chaihman
Warner has been trying to secure lev
erage that would pry his closest
friend, William ;H. Cad well into the
office of state highway commissioner.
Mr. Cadwell is now a member of the
state commission of which Mr. War
ner is chairman. Mr. Cadweil is Gov
ernor Baldwin s choice to succeed
Highway Commissioner Macdonald.
Cadwell's confirmation was thwarted
by a republican senate, two years ago.
Now Cadweil wants "the Job worse
than ever.
As an egineer : Cadweil was very
much concerned about the appoint
ment of Engineer Bush as resident
engineer for the terminals commis
sion. Waldo E. Clarke of New Lon
don was an opponent of Bush. He
had ' the support of Commissioners
Mahan and Chappeil
and pnnnh to
opposition a bill would be introduced
In this session which would repeal the
$l,0O0,C0O harbor improvement act.
The threat was treated as .a.ioke
and would not have gotten into print
had pot the attempt to seore New
Lesdefiefs into supporting- Cadweil
bef) outlined to members of the leg
islature, whs must have ultimately
bees consulted, Opposition, which
members ef the house and senate
have fee Cadweil, is based, it is said,
e his alleged UHfitness for the plaee;
his defeat tw years age, which dem
onstrated that a better man was need
ed, and his disposition te hold up the
harbor improvement werk. because he
has rot been able to have his say in
the matter of anointing hl resident
engineer.
The word that Mr. Chappeil sent
back in answer to Mr. Warntr's threat
Is said in effect to have been in sub
stance: "Do your worst. You cannot
hoss us,
Mayor Mahan said the matter had
never worried him. "I have a very
vivid picture of the political nnisti or
any young man the size of Mr. War-
ner who tries to get such a thing as
this through the legislature.You don't
j think the people would stand for it, do
. you? 1 don't."

who was the more seriously injured
of the four occupants of the carriage,
effects a settlement with the company
some time ago. The amount ot the set
tlement is not divulged.
The complaints set forth that at
a point of the railroad a short dis
tance north of Avery's crossing in
North gtonington the defendant's
roadbed curves sharply to the south
so that a car running in a southerly
direction from Norwich is not visible
from the crossing and travelers on
said highway approaching the cross
ing from the west and objects on the
crossing are not visible to the motor
man operating the car.
On September 19 the plaintiffs were
riding in a surrey and going across
the tracks when the car came around
the curve at a reckless and danger
ous rate of speed, and without warn
ing struck the surrey, hurling the
plaintiffs with great violence to ,he
ground, severely injuring them and
causing great shock,, physical pain
and internal injuries.
The accident occurred at 12.30,
while the party was bound to the
North Stonington Grange fair. The
carriage was demolished and the in
jured persons were taken to a nearby
residence, where they were treated.

Urged
in Connection With Presidential
Limitation.
Washington, Jan. 16. Pressure to se
cure, final action on the limitation of
the presdential term and on making
the Incumbent ineligible for re-election
was begun in the senate Tuesday. Mr.
Cummins sought to have a date fixed
for taking the conclusive' vote. He was
unsuccessful, but it is believed that an
arrangement soon will be made where

Root's utterances. They scented a
desire to load up the pending measure
in such a manner as to cause its fail
