That Coalition.

We should like to be informed how our free soil' friends feel in regard to their new Representatives in Congress from this State. A great cry was raised by them just before the election, because certain Wings would not pledge them. selves not to vote for a ave-holder un . der any circumstances. Let us see what they have gained by their coalition with the locofocos.
 In the Sd Congressional District, they repudiated the Hon. John A. Rockwell, who, during his four years in Congress, had invariably voted right on all. ques- tions appcrtaining to slavery and free soil, and nominated C.F, Cleveland, who had but recently been a candidate on the Cass electoral ticket. This Cleveland was notoriously man of easy virtue" as politician--ready to pledge himself to a"ything for the sake of promotion. He did make most earnest and. solemn pledges to the free-soilers. and by their votes he was elected to Congress. And how has he redeemed those pledges 1? Did he vote for a shareholder for Speak
 CT of the House? Not quite--but he voted first for Thompson and then for Potter. and both of these gentlemen were at the same time voting for Cobb, the Georgia slaveholder! He, moreover. acknowledged in the democratic caucus
 that he had voted for Messrs. Thomson and Potter without knowing their opin. |. ions" upon the WilmoL Proviso! In other words, he does not consider the Proviso of sufficient practical importance to justify him in questioning" candid. a:es for bis sutfrages. much less to obtain "pledges" from them. What, then. we may ask in all seriousness. has the free. soa party SGiaed in the election of Chan. cey F. Cleveland over John A. Rcck. well?
 In the let Congressional District. tho candidate of the frse.sOil party (sn ori. ginAl Whig,) withdrew just upon the eve Of the election. in favor of Loren P. Wal. do. tho democratic nominOe--tha free. so'Iers having obtained '%a,lsiactOry" pledges from him on the slavery Qucs. IIOp' And what does As do wAen he gets tO wAsAIngGSSs ' lEoIslnddvsndous

From fhe NcsO Haren JOuraGk. splitting Lltcliaeld County.

A public meeting has been held at Waterbury upon the subject of making a new county from parts of Litch6cld and New Haven counties. and commit tee appointed to consult with other towns. The towns designated are Plym, outh, Wa:ertown, woodbmy. Bethlem. Southbury, Oxford, Middlebury, Nau- gatuck, Prospect and Wolcott.

Divide Litch6eld COuNtyI Apart from other considerations that might ca. silly be urged, we should like to know what those towns, whom you propose to split from the County, will do with their share of the old and revered history of , that County? WolcOtt, Reeve, Board man, Bellamy, Day, Smith, and host Ot others, strong as giants in days that have been, and some of them still walking the earth with robes of honor abOat them.- these are part and parcel of the County ; sacred, with the many other things. placed in the ark of her reno n and no more to be divided than truth, honor, virtue, or the other undivided and indi- visible qualities that make up her histo- ry. The name of Wolcott alone makes that County great. While he lived Le maee not only the County, but the State, and even the land great. With his breath there passed something of the reverence that once clustered round the family name, , ct any one who reads the life of Wolcott published few years ago, sees mind of astonishing vigor and sagacity, and wisdom fully acAnowled- ged in the councils of the national gov ernmsnt, and that did its full part in shaping the stupendous fabric of our national constitution. It is a splendid namel and standing once at shut of day at the bottom of the hilleaSt Sf the town of Ljtchfeld, in the lowly, lonely. yet beautiful,, graveyard there, and by tine twilight reading that name over his ash- es, we feh, and we defy others not to feel in the same eireumstances, the awe al- ways inspired in standing by the dust of the "leaders" among men.-those b, ight names, whose glory even time itseN finds it hard to obscuicI You may split Litchfeld County into thousand atoms, yet every son, not bastard tor her spirit and renown, will cherish her name still. Her ashes are not the common. dust of the earth.
