HARWJNTON

The Union men of Harwinton, in connection with Fluteville and Plymouth assembled W ednes- day of last week for the purpose of raising a
 pole and the stars and stripes in front of the
 house of George and Ralph Bartholomew, the
 most open mouthed secessionists with which the town is afflicted. They organized by appointing
 Hon. Shelden Osborn president, and Levi H. Dunbar, marshal. They then appointed com mittce to wait on the Messrs. Bartholomews and invite them to assist. The committee not being successful, the company of about two hundred. formed in line with two Drum Bands. (Fluteville Union flag, and the marshal on horseback, march ed to where they were at work and gave them 8 second invitation, but they were |" SC busy they could not attend it.' Ths company then gave three cheers for the flag and three groans for secession, and marched back and raised the flag without their assistance, and mounted the stone wall opposite the house with @ battery of stove pipe cannon. Speeches were made by the President, Rev. Mir. Gum, Mr. Blakeslee from Yale College, and Mir. Bishop returned yolun- teer, which, with music by the bands, singing the star spangled banner, &c., cheering, inter spersed with tigers, till all were hoarse, showed secessionists how they were appreciated in this region: winding up with collation. furnished by the neighborhood. All then quietly disper- sed' feeling that they had enjoyed a very pleas ant time and showed their opinion of secession in general and of that in Harwinton in partic- ular.

 DEAR CoTHREN:-I received your letter as I was in the act of writing to you. sincerely thank you for your interest in " our Woodbury boys," and in return will write you as often as I have an opportunity. There is but little news here at present. We expect marching orders every day. Our boys are all eager for fight, but do not think we shall have much of it to do at present. I. think we shall be called to Point of Rocks about miles northeast of this place soon. The rebels are trying to cross the river in that place, but we do not intend to let them do it. Leave that to the Connecticut boys Never fear but shall do my duty shall never finch in the hour of battle. Never will cease to fight against the traitors, that would destroy our beloved Union, and that Constitutional liber- ty, which Washington and our forefathers fought and bled for. do not wish to return home till truth and justice triumph over cruelty and oppression, and not till the name of every lead ing traitor shall be plotted from every page of decent history to be enrolled on the roll of in fanny.

\ SECEssIoN FLAG THAT WAsNT RAISED The quiet town of Saybrook was favored with
 some excitement on Friday. The rumor that
 secession flag would be raised there, and that
 Bill Eaton and other confedera:e sympathizers
 would hold "secesh" meeting, had the effect
 of drawing together a large number of Union
 men from New Haven, Midtlletown and the sur
 rounding country, to see them do it. Gilbert Pratt's. their headquarters in that village, was the place proposed for the meeting and pole had been erected in front of his house on which to hoist the flag. Some dry-goods boxes were placed near by as platform for the speakers, and '' Billy and his followers were on hand, ac- cording to promise. Three o'clock in the after noon, was the hour named for the exercises to commence, but the secessionists appeared not over anxious to push the matter, so the Union men took things into their own hands. They raised the stars and stripes to the top of the '' secesh' pole, and greeted it with three rous- Ing cheers Captain HaWley, of the Hartford Press, who was present, was then called on to make speech, which he responded to in his usual eloquent style, amid long continued au- piause. They then visited the houses of Cap tain Morgan and John Doane and gave them three cheers, to which the gentlemen responded in their most happy manner. To sum up the whole, Bill Eaton didn't speak-no secession flag was raised, and Connecticut was not disgraced that day.-N. H. Journal
