The struggles Of Democracy The tot

Connecticas, was lately received
+ !" Nezu. Haven, Oct. 2sth, 1906.
g Last Wednesday the democrats as.
serbled from all parts OF the state at this
place-a,ad Rislsob came also amsng them.
After proper pause he rose and address.
ed the meeting on the glorious principles
they held, and the glorious prospects be-.
fore them. Having aourished away till ne
thought he had prepared them for the dis
closure, he told them with long aud DIS
NAL face that the arrearages Tor supporting
the democratic cause the last year, consist
ing principally of compensaticns to editors
of democratic newspapers, exPences tor
pamphlets, handbills, distribution OF them,
&c. sc. which he need not partcalarlze.
amounted 20 the precise SUM OF three thou
sand four hundred dollars. He went on to
tell them. by way of inducing them to to'.
low his example, that he had himself paid
ou. enc hundred and seventy dollars; aud,
he added, he was ready TO advance nifty
more towards completing the residue, pro-
vided others would come forward and sub
scribe their proportion. The asionlshment
aud CONSERVATION was greater than any
pen can deeribe. One got UP and moved
one thing, another another, and the meet
ing got into the utmost confusion. 10 vain
was so attempt made to see 1t the meeting
would assume the debt; in vain did b.
shop bawl that if they did not by some
means or other contrive to raise this sum,
the cause of democracy must fall. They
took care to pass no vote upon the subject,
and thus the meeting broke ---lon

Legislative Intelligence.

AS the good people of this state are, or
ought to be, anxious to know what their
representatives are doing, we occupy
part Of this weeks paper, with a sketch of
the proceedings of the assembly. For the
information of those who may ror wish TO
search through so long detail, We here
touch upon some of sAe principal topics Of
legislative elaboration.
- Kentucky Resolutions.
The resolutions Of the Legislature OF
Kentucky, proposing an ameudmentto the
federal constitution respecting the power
OF the Judiciary, were, on the third day OF
the sitting, committed to Mess. Van Duro,
Condics aud w Cox, together with the re.
SOLUTIONS from pennsyly ania and Georgia,
concurring in said proposition. OnThurs.
day las, the committee reported agaips. he
amendment; propcssd--aud The report was
agreed TO by the house.
DiUorce, SIC.
A bill giving the supreme court cognl.
zance of cases Of divorce and aimony has
been dismissed by the house, Oh he ground
that divorces, by being more easily obtain,
ed would become more frequen,--n other
words, that II the door of escape from the
bopds Of matrimony were set wider open,
too many would be crowding through it.
Iuynpikes,
The legislature ale not likely to be trou.
bed much with turnpikes this sitting. One
bill, for turnpike from Patterson to Hac,
kensack, was dismissed last Tuesday. Pc
tilions for one from Andover by the log
Jail TO the Delaware, were presented to
the house and committed to Messrs Il.
Hankinson, Dunn and Post, who have
leave to report by bill. A petition from
the president aud directors Of the company
incorporated to turnpike aroad from Bruins
wick TO Gasson, for sundry alterations 10
their charter, was com mitted TO Messrs.
Vanduya, Harrisoa ADD Dunn, with leave
TO report by bin Ia council, bill supple.
mentary to the Patterson and Hamburgh
turnpike act was passed-al all the republican
members voting against, aad all the fede-
raj members for it. Federalis,s turnplked
their road almost to the top CT the hill
lass sitting and they would willingly fnish
it now.
The Jersey Shore.
Oar dear and loving brethren of New
York have, it seems, LAID serious claim
to the water aud the land under the water
| up to high-wa,er mark all along she Jersey
shore = and lest, from the sbsurdty and
anreasonableness Of the claim, we should
| not think them in earnest, they have actu.
