directing Mr.. Bedford to be summoned before Con-

Judge Gould was born in Branford, c. Dec. 5,

He remained several years in that institution as to.
tor after which he completed his professional studies
at Ltch6eld, with the late Hon. Tapping Reeve
Immediately after his admission to the Bar. Judge
Gould was associated with Judge Reeve in the in.
struction of students at the same time hs brilliant
talents soon brought him into extensive practice in
his profession. In 1916. he appointed Judge Of
the Supreme Court Of the State. lie occupied that
station about four years. On the bench he high:
ly esteemed for deep learning clear judgment, and
unsupported integrity. About thi: time the declining
ishing law school upon Judge Gould from 1919 to
1882, he devoted himself wholly to the instruction Of
students. Over 800 lawyers have received from him,
in whole or in part. their professional education, and
they have with voice borne testimony to his abi.
ty and faithfulness as an instructor.
His mind was peculiarly adapted to his profession.
He took place among the first in it, at an early age
and a. time when the Connecticut bar was distin.

strongly attached the legal science, and has aided
much in it's advancement.

few scores of greedy Loco Foco 0ficeshold-
ers to make room for as many prescribed but
honest men. The effrontery with which
they press their claims-the tenacity with
which they hold on, is rather amusing
Some old Thymer has said
No man e'er felt the halter draw
With good opinion Of the law
Now if any of your readers doubt the truth
of this maxim, days residence in New
Haven about these days would remove all his
misgivings on that point. We have had some
sparring in the House on this subject. Gen
Cleaveland, the Loco Foco Cham pion, has
emptied his store-house of wrath somewhat
frequently but have observed one thing
in his practice here, which strikes me as not
being exactly democratic. He submits with
all the grace in the world to the decupitation
of half dozen of his more humble friends,
but when such men as Charles A. Ingersoli
and Stillman X. Wightman are brought to
the block, he roars most amiably about APP
petites whetted for blood" and argues so pro-
foundly about legal attainments, that one
would suppose that lawyers only were fit for
office; and were it not for the fact that he
occasionally shows some solicitude for the
"people," l should think that if the Loco Fo-
cos had any aristocracy among them, he
might belong to it. Yet, after all. do not
IAA1IIV WOuAO llOl Nv any tIlGullS
speak to his disparagement. He is entirely
alone here. sustaining the rank of General,
having no friend to support him whose rank
in the scale of comparison approximates
nearer his own than the grade of Corporal.
Our friends here have not always treated him
with the greatest kindness. When not ex-
cited, he is an interesting speaker. Mr.. Ty-
Ter was very severe in a few words he said
in reply to General Cleaveland while the
Middletown probate appointment was under
consideration. Mr.. Tyler never rises to re-
ply to Loco Foco, but fancy have good
likeness ofold Gen. Putnam (whose grandson
he is) as he stood at the mouth Of the VOLTS
den at Pomfret.
We had resolution offered to-day an.
pointing Ansel Sterling Chief Judge Of our
County Cosrt, which was laid on the table to
await the action of the House on bill which
proposes an organization of that court on new
principles. The Hartford and New Haven,
the Norwich and Worcester, and Housatonic
Railroad Coz have all applied for assistance,
and have been heard by their counsel before
the committee on internal improvements
The arguments of Truman Smith and Asa
Childs before that committee were highly in
tcresting. The committee have not yet re-
ported. The abolitionists have also been
heard before the committees to whom their
petitions were referred; but if those commit
tees read all the petitions referred to them be-
fore reporting, the present generation of
shareholders need have no fear of immedi-
ate emancipation. The gentlemen who ap-
peared as counsel for the abolitonists urged
their claims with very great zeal, and attrac-
ted large audience, in which there was
commendable sprinkling of the ebony. For
tunately the weather was cool. Commenda-
BILE, say, because consistent. No report on
this subject as yet. Yours &C.,
