-7: jXj r- 2c, per Copy. $5 per Year. THE IiARCrEST AILiY NEWSPAPER IN THE CITY. OFFICE, 400 STATE STREET. THE CARRINCTOX PBBLISHING CO. ;KE HAVEN, CONN., THURSDAY MOIUSTNTx, JULY 24 1884. NO. 195. VOL. LII. When we take pen in hand to write an adver tisement in these days, with the purpose of let ting our friends know what things we are selling cheap, so much occurs to us that we dont know where to be gin, and we feel we should need tp,usat least a whole page of a paper. But we cant afford that, so we have to pick out just a few items. The first that we would name to-day ts the item of Ham burg Em broideries. When we came to this stock in the course of our marking down ope rations a protest was 7nade by those in charge that reduction was not m needed, as our prices had been again ana again proved to be lower than those of all our competitors. But all the same we did reduce them, and heavily too. Another stock which weptit away down, very far below the ordinary prices, was that of WHite Cambric Trim mings, in puffing, tuck ing, ruffling and com binations of these. We made also a great many reductions on White Muslin Underwear. The prices on our Para sols haye -been a good deal talked about, some of the manufac turers -blaming us1 for having" spoilt the trade" too early. But that is ozir affair. Since last week we have put some of them down even lower than they were. Eider down Jersey Cloth in light colors for dressing gowns, infants sacks, &c, is another article they say we are selling too cheap. We have over a dozen pretty styles in it. We mention these things because we did not refer to them in our previous advertiseme's; but it must not be for gotten that by far the most important bar gains to be got from us at this sale are those in Dress Goods and Silks. And all the numerous other things we mentioned before are still selling at the same extremely low prices, or lower, except in so far as any lots may haye been closed out. 7T tlucnXian.

REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS. FOB PRESIDENT, JAMES i. BLAINE, or Blaine. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, JOHN A. LOGAN, of Illinois, REFORM IN COPIAH COUNTY. In his great speech in Boston the other day Senator Hoar showed what the reform ers who intend to vote for Cleveland will really vote for. He pointed out that the chief support of the Democratic candidate would come from the solid South, and then showed how the South has been made and kept'gulid. He referred -to the Copiah coun ty case, which he investigated a few months ago. A band of 150 Democrats composed, as was admitted, of "the best citizens," armed with rifles and shot-guns, rode about that county for a fortnight before election intimi dating Republicans. The day before elec tion the armed company waited upon Print Matthews, the leading Republican of the county. Matthews was "the principal citizen of the county, a wealthy merchant, with two sons in college, and two grown daughters in his house. He was generous, brave, a liberal benefactor of schools and churches. The Demo cratic witnesses testified that everybody liked him if it were not for his politics. They drew up in the road near his gate and sent him a demand in writing that he should ab stain from voting the next day. He answer ed the messenger: -'It seems to me this i very strange thing in a Republican govern ment. 1 have tried to be useful to society every way that I could. I have never done any of you any harm. I admit that it is in your power to murder me, but I am going to vote to-morrow unless you do kill m Matthews went to the polls and cast the first vote in the morning. As he placed it in the box, Wheeler, who was the Democratic challenger, shot him dead with the charge of one barrel in the heart and another just below the throat. A mass meeting was held the next day, the murder was approved, and tew weeKs alter the murderer was made city marshal of Hazelhurst. Any reference by northern Republicans to this dastardly crime is called "waving the bloody shirt," and we are told that the Re publican vote in the South is not suppressed by force and fraud. If there are any among our readers who think the time for waving the bloody shirt has gone by we invite their attention to the following from the Brook- naven (Mississippi) .Democrat, a prominent party journal published near the scene of the murder of Matthews: - It is true it has already been intimated that the Republicans are going to make an aggressive campaign in this State. We would recommend moderation in this respect We AT A i .... r - we me present opportunity tnus .early in the fight to throw out a friendly warning to me more recess ana unprincipled: dema gogues of the Repubhcan oartv in this and adjoining counties not to let their "patriot ism" get tne better of their discretion. If they are endowed with ordinary judgment evcu ab j w mc.ii personal saxety may be supposed to engender they may see the "handwriting on the wall" reflected in the light of recent events. We invite every Kepublican to be true to his party and vote according to his convic tions. Jet the colored man exercise bis right in this respect of his own vo lition, without fear or hindrance. But let there be no bulldozing. And let it be at once understood that it will be an act so per ilous tnat none but fools will undertake to antagonize the colored race against the whites. Let this, we say. be understood defi. mteiy. it cannot be too earnestly or too speedily impressed, and if the fate of Print Matthews will add any weight to our utter ances, his party will have reaped more bene- nt rrom nis aeatn tnan ne could have con ferred on it by living. "A word to the wise is sumcient." There is no misunderstanding the meaning of this. And as long as the state of affairs indicated by it exists in the South, so long will the Republican party have a missi worthy the support of the purest and most particular Independent. EDITORIAL NOTES. The Norwalk Gazette says that Mr. P. C. Lounsbury is the man whom the Republicans should nominate for governor, but it has, of course, nothing to say against the Hon. Hen ry B. Harrison. A German engineer has just obtained let ters patent on a aevice tor building mine shafts and bridge piers upon quicksands. His method, says a correspondent, is to in- troduce pipes into the quicksands and pump through them a freezing mixture by which the entire mass of quicksand is frozen solid, when it may be worked through with no more difficulty than a stratum of rock. The members of the committee appointed in Rochester, New York, to attend the Inde pendent conference were interviewed with in teresting results. The Rev, A. H. Strong, D. president of the theological seminary, said: "I am, on principle, a believer in free trade." Robert Craig: "I think the ultimate tendency is to the principle of free trade." Robert Matthews: "I believe in the principle of free trade as an ultimate result of revenue reform." Theodore Bacon: "I was a mem ber of a free trade association eighteen years ago." The Rev. Dr. M. Landsberg: "I be lieve in the principle of free trade.'' Henry Booth: "I think the majority of men in this Independent movement are advocates of the doctrine of free trade." On the first of January of this year the act of the British Parliament which abolished the rule of the commissioners of patents came in force. The first report of the comptroller of patents, which the new law requires before June 1 in each year; has been submitted, and though it covers only four months it shows that the reduced eost of obtaining a patent under the new law has acted as a strong stimulus. Instead of the usual monthly list of about 500 applications from the United Kingdom, there were 2,500 applications in January alone. For the four months includ ed in the report the applications numbered 700. Nearly three-fourths of these appli cations, it appears, passed through the hands of agents. A remarkable book was sold for 980 in London recently. It is a MS. of 157, folio leaves of vellum, written in thej fifteentb, century, and is a chronicle of the early his tory of Normandy. Nothing can exceed the minute delicacy of the miniatures with which it has been embellished, from the first of them, which represents the arrival of Duke Rollo at Rouen, to the last; .which rep resents the siege of Chains, where Richard Coeur de lion received his death wound from an arrow shot by Bertrand de Gour don. The series includes the death of Ed ward the Confessor and the coronation of Harold, the landing of William the Conquer or, the battle of Hastings, the carrying of Harold's body to Waltham Abbey, the funer al of William and the coronation of Buftw by Archbishop Lafranc all executed in the highest style of Burgundian art, and with the minutest attention to every detail of architecture, costume and armor. The decision which has just been made by Surrogate Rollins of New York in a will case will cause some discussion. John Tilby, an aged butcher, married a woman who was supposed to be a widow, and dying soon af terward bequeathed her bis estate, : which amounted to something like $300,000. Two sons by a former marriage contested the will on the ground that the woman had another husband living at the time she mar ried their father, from whom she had not been divorced. It was maintained on her behalf that she had never been legally mar ried to the man who preceded Mr. Tilby in her affections. The surrogate, however, found from the evidence that the allegation made by the sons as to her former marriage was true, and it followed, as a matter of course, that her marriage with Mr. Tilby was illegal. The question then was whether the will could be set aside because the testator gave his property to a woman to whom he was illegally married. The surrogate ruled that Mr. Tilby had been deceived by the woman, and was a victim of fraud and de ception at the time he made his will. Con sequently it was not admitted to probate. A sketch of the life of Robert Koch, the discoverer of the cholera germ, appears in a recent number of the Gartenlaube. Dr. Koch is now forty-one years old. In 1866 he took his M. D. degree. For the next six years he slowly and laboriously worked his way upward as assistant physician in' out-of- the-way hospitals. Fortune did not smooth nis roaa, ana wnen in lovz ne got an ap pointment at Wollstein, the struggle for lstence naa again to be fought tor seven years. Under circumstances so unfavorable for scientific research he prosecuted his studies with a success which secured a world wide recognition of his genius. His first dis tinction was won by the publication of the results of his quiet labor on the methods of the artificial dyeing of microscopic objects especially of bacteria. By the general publi his discovery could not be appreciated, but those who understoodthe value of these searches jn the prosecution of the study of bacteria knew that with it a new era had dawned for science. During the last five years he has succeeded in identifying the germs of cattle disease, of consumption and of cholera. These discoveries are not ii dental strokes of good luck, but the natural fruits of his own system of research. Honors have been conferred on Dr. Koch and his col leagues on coming home from India, the breeding-place of cholera. They have ceived titles and orders, to which, in honor of the personal danger of the voyage of dis covery, were added such distinctions as other wise are only conferred on soldiers. By ad dresses and banquets colleagues have honored them, and it is said that the new Professor ship of Hygiene at Berlin will be given to Dr. Koch. SILENT.

A Review of the Two Great Pvartles. To the Editor of the Journal and Courier : The Republican and Democratic parties have held their national conventions, adopt ed their platforms and selected their candi dates, and the campaign opens all along the lines from Maine to California. Each of these parties has anational reputa tion as a party organization, the leaders stand ing on each side of the dividing lines sub stantially now as they have stood since 1861, dictating the policy, the platforms and the nominations. Candidates are merged in the party placing them m nomination and the election of either will be a party triumph, although the names of the candi dates will have a bearing upon the result of the election. These two parties sustain the same relation to each other and are substantially the same in principle now that they have been since lool. Jutch has a party history, the out growth of it partyfprineiples, which history neither party repudiates or desires to blot out. But on the contrary, as often as they assemble in conventions, they point with pride to the record of the past, and renew their devotion to it for the future. There is no better way of judging of the future than I by the past, and judging by the past is there anything m tne history of tne Democratic party that commends itself to the confidence, i support or even respect ot any American cit izen outside of the office he might fill? What has it ever done to ameliorate the condition of the American people when it has been in power and administered all the affairs of ;the government from resident down to i the lowest office in its gift! In 1861, after long Democratic rule, the Re publican party came into power, and what was its inheritance! It found the national government honeycombed with treason and misdeeds in all the branches of government and governmental machinery at home and abroad, a depreciated currency, a depleted treasury, our six per cent, bonds at nearly lOWi per- cent, discount, our public credit gone, business paralyzed, American citizen ship of little value, our navy scattered, our army demoralized, a war on hand for the destruction of the Union, and many other evils not necessary to mention, all growing out of the policy and misrule of the Demo cratic party .- lo right these evils and restore the eov- ernment to respectability and power was the work the Republican party had before it. Its success forms the grandest epoch and bright .est - pure in American history. The government is restored to unity and power, and although it took half a million of lives to do it, the achievement was worth the sacrifice. Our national credit has been redeemed, our 8 per cent, bonds are worth nearly double in market that our 6 percents. were in 1861, our currency is the best in the world, American citizenship re spected, and wherever our flag floats it guar antees protection to its subjects, slavery is abolished and the races put upon equal po litical footing, business enterprises have prosperea ana larjor ana industry are re warded. All of these achieved under the policy and rule of the Republican party. All of these Repubhcan measures the Democratic party has opposed and fought against from first to last. In its party creeds for twenty years past the Democratic party has de nounced the Republican policy as impractica ble, futile and a failure. The Republican party since 1861 has gone lurworu acnievmg grand results tor tne na tion, and holding to its achievements with promises of further grand results in the fu ture development ot our national resources and possibilities, while the Democratic party, naving opposed ail in the past, proposes nothing good for the future. It will not do to say that the past issues between - the parties are dead issues and should be ignored in the future. They are living, vital issues, facts interwoven into the history of the parties, fought for by the one and tougnt against . by the other. Ana tne recora stands without an apology from either. The life blood and heart throbs of the Republican party are quickening to new life and devo tion to the interests of the people, as those interests widen and expand under the inspi ration of the genius, wisdom and fidelity of rsiaine and Logan, while the Democratic party, represented by its candidates, is joined to its past idols and tainted by the corpses it bears. Looking at the recent conventions of the two parties we find the Republican composed in the main of eminent statesmen, men who have been identified with the party in heart. sentiment and action since 1861, while the Democratic convention had a large percent age of the old rebel element to dictate its policy and help formulate a tricky catch- vote platform that means all things to all men, and a ticket that means all things to all men in general, and to bourbon chiefs and rebel generals in particular is it commended. The Republican party is the living embodi ment of all that is valuable in this govern ment to-day. It is proud of its past history, and has no apology to offer for the past, or in the present. It stands out in shining light boldly and pre-eminently the American party that has rescued the nation from its perils incident to Democratic rule, and it proposes to stand by it and save it in the fu ture. . There are no safer hands in which to in trust its future than those who have fought its battles and won its victories m war and in peace. No safer, abler, purer men can be found to whom to entrust the command of the ship of State for four years to come than Blaine and Logan, supported by the Repub ican crew, who have rescued and recon structed the ship, manned her 8pars,furnished her rigging and launched her out on a prosperous voyage. "It is no time to change horses in the midst of the stream." So it is unwise to change commanders when the voyage is half finished. What reason or argument do Democrats pre sent for the election of their candidates I Mr. Hendricks, the candidate for Vice President, one of the ablest and most persistent oppo nents of Republican policy and ablest expo nent of Democratic policy, strikes the key note in a comprehensive summary of reasons why its candidates should be elected. He says there are 60,000 Republican office-holders who must be removed, and their places filled by Democrats when they come into power. And this is the civil service reform pap thrown out to the Independents to come over and help beat Blaine. How the dear little coddlings with Republican ante cedents can go over and nestle down into the Democratic nest and partake of the unnatu ral foster mother's milk without its souring upon their stomach, is prat comprehension. L. E. Munson. The Suture of Nerves. From the London Globa. The Academy of Sciences was entertained the other day with a description of the new operation which M. Tillaux has performed with so much success. This is the repara tion of a broken nerve after the two ends have been long separated, and the part of it which was so seperated by an interval from commimication with the brain has become entirely useless. For a long time, indeed always until a very few days ago, it had been supposed impossible to effect this junction, owing partly to the fact that the two ends would contract, so as to be short to meet one another. Indeed, the surgeons, all with one consent, declared that the thing was impossi ble and inconsistent with the principles of their art. M. Tillaux was of a different opin- and has made two experiments which show conclusively that he was right and the faculty was wrong. The first was a ease of a woman who had cut through her wrist with a pain of glass, severing one of the most im portant nerves in the arm. For four months the hand had been paralyzed, and had lost ail sense of feeling; but the doctor has now sewn up the nerve, and the hand has resumed all its power. The other case was still more extraordinary, being that of a man in whose arm the nerve had been severed for fourteen years, but whose cure was no less complete. The new process is called by its inventor, "secondary suture, "and is, as it may be sup posed, nailed with great interest by the Acad emy. How Clay Took His Defeat. The following interesting incident was re lated many years ago by Mrs. Robert Todd, of Kentucky, the stepmother of Mrs. Abraham Lincoln, and has never before been print, ed: The Todds and Clays were al ways on inti mate terms, and in 1844 were living neai each other in Lexington, y. Henry Clay and James K. Polk were then rival candidates for the Presidency,the chances,as were gener ally supposed, being strongly in favor of the great Whig leader. As it turned out, how ever, the contest was much closer than had been anticipated, and finally advices from other States showed that the result hinged upon the vote of New York. There was no telecraphs in those days, and the news had to come by the slow course of the mails. The New York mail was due in Lexington at 10 o'clock in the evening of a certain day, and it was known would tell the story of victory or defeat. As it happened, a young lady relative of Mr. Clay was to be married on the same evenmg, and insisted upon nis pres ence, though under the circumstances he would much rather have remained at home. Mr. and Mrs. Todd attended this memorial wedding party, which was not large, and composed almost exclusively of the family connections and intimate friends all ardent Whigs, and of course deeply interested m the pending political event. As the hour for the arrival of the mail approached, Mrs. Todd saw two or three gentlemen quietly leave the room, and knowing their errand, watched eagerly for their return. When they came in, she knew by the expression of each counte nance that New York had gone Democratic. The bearers of the bad tidings consulted to gether in a corner, and then one of them ad vanced to Mr. Clay, who was standing in the center of a group, and handed him a paper. Mrs. Todd aware of what it contained.fasten- ed her eyes upon him. He opened the paper, and as he read the paragraph which sounded the death-knell of his political hopes and his life-long ambition, she saw a distinct blue shade begin at the roots of his hair, pass slowly over his face and disappear. Without saying a word upon the subject which must have monopolized all his thoughts, he lay down the paper, and turning to a table, filled a gxass wt wc, , -- with a pleasant smile, said: "I dnnk to the health and happiness of all assembled nere. Setting down the glass he resumed the con versation as if nothing had occurred, and was as usual the light and life ot the company. But Mrs. Todd said as soon as the contents of the paper were known, "a wet blanket fell on everybody," and in half an hour all the guests had departed with heavy hearts feel ing that gallant "Harry of the West" had fought his last Presidential battle, and lost the prize forever.
