A VENERABLE LADY.
A Lous L,Ile Drawing to the Close
96 Years.
The many dear friends of Mrs. Clarissa
Hall, of No. 23 Woolsey street, Fair Haven,
will be pained to learn that she is seriously
ill. This much esteemed lady is ninety-six
years of age this week. In 1807 she mar
ried Solomon Pinto and some years after his
decease she married a Mr. Hall of Walling
ford, Conn. She has for many years been a
widow. She has all her senses and is merely
dying of old age. She has a large circle of
friends. Mr. Solomon Pinto, her first hus
band, was for many years interested in the
shipping business with the W est Indies and
the Spanish colonies. His shipping office
was in this city. His remains were first in
terred bock of the Center church and after
ward when that graveyard was dispensed
with his dust was removed to the old ceme
tery with the dust of so many others. Her
second husband was a wealthy farmer. By
Mr. Pinto she had several daughters who are
noted for their beauty. They had long since
died. The old lady, though failing fast, re
tains her memory which, covers a great many
events of national and local interest of which
she was personally cogaizant. She is, we
think, a member of Center church and al
ways attended Center church when able to
do so. She has quite a number of de
scendants in this city. She was born here and
has always resided in Now Haven.

Found . Ry
Ree Hunters
In Reacon
Falls Woods.
The badly decomposed body of a man was
found in the woods at Beacon Falls Sunday,
near the Naugatuck line, by two men named
Seeley and Hotchkiss. The body rested on
the ground by the side of a sapling not big
ger round than a broom handle. A rope
which was twisted around the throat was
fastened to the tree about six feet from the
ground The suicide must have died from
strangulation and not until after repeated ef
forts had been made by him to shut off his
breathing by choking. Medical Examiner
Tattle, of Naugatuck, was summoned and
said the man had probably been dead at least
twelve days. From papers found on the

fifty years old and a veteran of the civil war.
He worked in Seymour about three weeks
ago and is supposed to belong in Massachu
setts. The Beacon Falls authorities had the
body interred yesterday afternoon. In Heilid

The meeting was called to order by Judge
L. P. Deming, who read the list of officers of
the meeting and introduced the president.
Hon. F. D. Sloat. Mr. Sloat spoke briefly.
alluding to the records of the two parties and
the positions taken by the two leading par
ties or. the tariff question. He introduced
the Hon. Henry B. Harrison as a man who
always dared to utter his convictions with
the courage of a Spartan, and who volun
tarily went forth and jeopardized his life in
behalf of hiG country the pride of the
commonwealth, the next Governor of Con
necticut, Hon. Henry B. Harrison,
Immense applause greeted Mr. Harrison as
he stepped forward and in graceful words
acknowledged the fine reception given him.
"It is my duty to-night to speak to you on
some of the duties of the hour, and I speak
to you as a plain man addressing another,
An attack of unparalleled fury has been
made upon the" Republican candidate for the
presidency. W cannot ignore it. It has
brought about a crisis in politics. It has
made a two-fold Impression: one on the
minds of some Republicans opposed to Mr,
Blaine, the other of another character on the
Democrats, as the Maine election shows. We
know many of such Republicans in our town,
They are honorable and are entitled to. re
spect, and if separated from us for the pres
ent are still our friends. They are men who
do their own thinking. I trust that they
will receive my remarks in the candid spirit
in which they are made, . I admit with them
that no corrupt man should be elected Presi
dent of the United States. If I believed as
they believe, God forbid that I should up
hold Mr. Blaine. They are not the makers
of the attacks which Mr. Blaine's enemies
have made. I do not suppose that any re
marks from me at this late hour will have
much effect, but there must be among them
many who are willing to reconsider the opin
ion tney nave tormed.
"Ine mam charge against Mr. Blaine is
that he ss a corrupt man, capable of using
his ofiice for corrupt purposes. Who are his
chief accusers? Chief among them is Carl
Schurz. He is a man of remarkable intel
lect. What he cannot say against Mr.
Blame cannot be as well said, and therefore
I propose to meet the attack as it comes from
him. What is Mr. Sehurz's record . He has
joined both parties twice, and the same
tongue which defamed one of the greatest of
American soldiers now pours forth torrents
of abuse upon one of the greatest of Ameri
can statesmen. But let us be patient with
Mr. iscnurz. ne will come around all right.
"Mr. Schurz refers to a certain expression
used by Mr. Blaine in one of the so-called
Mulligan letters, and to a certain ruling of
mr. jtsiaine on a previous occasion and says
ine expressions mean omcial power prosti
tuted to corrupt uses. 1 interpret the ex
pressions differently. Give Mr. Blaine a fair
chance. Mr. Blame had been offered an in
terest in a certain railroad operation which
was a perfectly legitimate one. He wrote
letter accepting the proposition and said
1 do not feel that 1 shall prove a deadhead
in the enterprise it l snail embark m it
Carl Schurz says it is an offer to do some cor
rupt thing. What right has any man to import
an evil purpose into that remark?
Let me illustrate. Here is the treasurer of
Yale who has an offer to engage in some
private business. He accepts the offer and
says he will not be a deadhead in the enter
prise. He writes this and I get the letter.
What right have I to say that he means to
say that he is prepared to commit fraud
Such an interpretation is dishonorable to the
man who makes it. It is not a decent
measure of justice. Mr. Blaine did make
himself useful, but not in an exercise
of official power. He sold securities, offered
to establish a national bank and raised funds
for the railroad company, but that was not
an exercise or omcial power. His offer
proved true. But he did not do any act of
omcial power in aid of that enterprise.
&. certain reierence to a inline Mr. .Blaine
had made on a railroad bill is also alluded to
by Mr. Schurz. MrBlaine made a ruling on
a point ot order. He did his duty. He had
no interest in the measure nor had
his friends. Mr. Blaine refers to . the
ruling in two of his letters.
Mr. bchurz says this was official
power offering itself for prostitution for
private gain. Was there any offer about it?
No man has a right to say that Mr. Blaine by
referring to a righteous measure made an in
timation that he was ready to do an un
righteous thing. -
"Hut there are other Mullizan letters.
have read them through again and again and
have failed to find any offer or intimation of
offer to use official power for a corrupt end.
lhere is not a suggestion of an idea of usintr
ms omcial power ror any purpose whatever.
good, bad, or indifferent. I make this state
ment deliberately and after having read the
letters witn. care.
X propose now to advance to the very
center of the position of Mr. Schurz and see
whether there is any strength to it. I sup
pose to bring to your attention a set of facts
which are opposed to the accusation. I
think I can prove that the accusation is
wholly untrue. In this line of attack which
I propose to take I will not call upon any
friend of Mr. Blame. 1 propose to call upon
the responsible authors of the accusation,
Carl Schurz chief among them.
Mr. iSiame was in Congress is years, o
of them as speaker of the House, a very ac
tive man always. There were corrupt meas
ures pending before Congress. - - Swarms of
lobbyists infested both houses of Congress.
.During those IB years there - was
not an hour that Mr. Blaine,
if he had been capable of doing wrong,
would have done so. He made a record dur
ing those years. It is safe to presume that
Mr. Schurz has carefully examined that rec
ord. Everything has been investigated.
During those eighteen years he gave hun
dreds of votes. All along that period no one
charged that Mr. Blaine ever voted for a
bad measure or against a good one. Carl
Schurz and his confederates tacitly confess
that Mr. Blaine always voted fright. Why,
Mr. Schurz, did you express that fact inJrour
speech in Brooklyn? During those
eighteen years Mr. Blaine made a
great many speeches. No one has . ever
charged that in that . time , Mr. - Blaine
ever spoke against a good bill or in favor of
a bad one. His enemies tacitly admit this
by suppressing the fact. James G. Blaine
was a skillful parliamentarian. F.vprvrmn
knows that bills may be defeated or put
through by parliamentary tactics, and no
one charges that Mr. Blaine used his parlia
mentary skill wrongfully. Mr. Blaine was
speaker of the House for six years and made
hundreds of rulings, which are all recorded.
Carl Schurz does not charge that Mr. Blaine
ever made a wrong ruling. They tacit
ly confess that as a speaker he
was pure. These - facts - taken to
gether are very important. They prove
by these admissions, silent but significant,
that the record of James G. Blaine is abso
lutely pure, without spot, stain, blemish or
shadow. I say that I have met this accusa
tion in the front, manfully, and the-whole of
ft and have struck a blow oetween the eyes
that is fatal. There's nothing left of it.
Thus the false, fictitious, imaginary figure
which-these men have presented to us as the
figure of Blaine vanishes. The man himself
stands before the American - peo
ple confronting his enemies with his
brilliant record in his hands, clad
from head to foot in full panoply of glitter
ing and impenetrable steel. It is no use to
talk of Mulligan -letters in view of the com
bined facts to which I have thus called your
attention."
At this point Mr. Harrison paused in his
speech to enable the Glee club to sing. They
gave the piece ."Blaine and Logan," S. S.
Thompson singing the eolo, and were en
cored. Mr. Harrison proceeded with his speech,
characterizing Mr. Blaine's record as pure
and spotless. "He has been pictured as a
naked leper, tattoed all over
with infamy. Every human feeling
of Mr. Blaine and his whole family has been
outraged. Even the grave of his little child
nas been outraged. Tney say we want re
form, but I say that all reforms can wait un
til the most necessary of all reforms, the re
form of political methods, is brought about.
Unless the methods used against Mr. Blaine
are rebuked by his election, honorable men
will flee from positions of public trust
from a pestilence."
Mr. Harrison went on to discuss the ques
tions of the day and showed the progress of
the national idea, which will be consumma
ted in the destruction cf the Democratic par
ty, ins remarKs were frequently interrupt
eu uy applause.
Mr. F. X. Schoonmaker, of New
York, made a few remarks which
were so acceptable to his audience that
they loudly clamored for "more" when - th
speaker closed. After the Glee club sang
Mr. bchoonmaker was called tor and he ad
dressed a few words to the naturalized voters,
telling them that their best interests would
be subserved by the Republican party.
The meeting closed at 11:20 o'clock. Few
had left during the meeting.
The procession escorting the speakers to

Rlack Cashmeres.
" After a most thorough investigation of the
subject we came to the conclusion that the
very best French cashmeres are those made
by Carlier and dyed by GiUaumet. Taking
fineness of texture, smoothness of finish,
weight of wool to the yard and rich lustre of
dye all into account, we found that no other
make combined excellence - in all these points
in so great a degree as Carrier, and we de
cided that we should keep them regularly in
all the grades. In order to get the goods on
the best possible terms, we imported them
direct (in conjunction with our Buffalo house)
and have marked them so that the prices
compare favorably with those charged for
much less meritorious goods. So far as we
know, these cashmeres are not sold by any
other New Haven dealer; at any rate, we
know for certain that they are not imported
direct by anyone else here. -

Humor In the Stomach.
Much of the distress and sickness attribu

causes is occasioned by humor in the stom

by Hood's Sarsaparilla. Other cures effected
by this medicine are'so wonderful that the
simplest statement of them affords the best
profthsit combines rare curative agents,
and when once used secures the confidence
of the people.
