Second Congressional Dis.
 Z1'tCL.

The nomination of Hon. Cyrus Northrup, for Congress in the Sec ond Congressional District, gives great satisfaction to the people of the District. The friends of Labor Re- form are especially gratiied, as he has been from the first, one of their ablest advocates and warmest friends. Besides he will receive hundreds of democratic votes, and those together with the votes of the workingmen, will elect him. Although young man, he is one of the ablest men in the state. The opposing candidate, MT. Hotchkiss of Middletown, is a very wealthy man, but has not sim gle qualification for the place. He used to be "brass-metal abolition ist," then he Topped over and SUD- ported the traitor John c. Brecken- ridge for President. He now pre- tends to favor the Eight Hour Re- form, but still keeps his employers at work ten and twelve hours a day. Let the workingmen, the soldiers, the young men, the war democrats rally to the support of Mr. Northrup and elect him, and thus secure an able and true man in Congress from one of the most important districts in New England. -at..

Six of the nine candidate. on the State and Congressional tickets of the Connecticut democracy, are reputed to-have capital amounting to about s2,5OO,000, or an average of s4oO,00O each. All accumulated from profits on the labor of hard-working men in their employ. Every one of these men has been defender of the right of southern capitalists to buy and sell men, women and children, and ap- propriate their labor without any limit of hours, under the lash ofover- seers, without other pay than the simplest food and scanty clothing. And they have now the impotence to ask for the votes of workingmen, as the special friends of the laborer. The humbug is too transparent to deceive sensible men.

General Grant speaks openly Tn favor of the Reconstruction bill. He remarked to friend, day or two since, that all his generals at the South were radicalin their opinions, though, when first sent down there, they were eminently conservative. Gen. Schofield is a specmen. He was picked out as man after the Presi- dents own heart but a month in Virginia made him over into a thor ough Congress Radical. It is the best school on the continent for fogy- ism and I have heard it suggested that even Robert O. Winthrop and George Lunt, if assigned to com mands in Texas and Virginia, would within six months go over to Stevens and Sumner. I have heard of the wife of a Union general, who went South, not many months ago, with the reputation of"rebel sympathizer" and "secessionist," who is now al most violent in her radicalism To her astonishment, she found that her mild-manneredz husband was in- suited at every street corner, and she too was sneered at and cold shouldered, simply because she was the wife of a Union General That was all. The she-dragons of Southern society did not stop to in- quire respecting her sentiments ;,for it was enough that she was the wife of man who had been engaged in the war against the rebellion. Thus the stupidity of the Southern people insures the triumph of radical prin- ciples. #-

We are very glad to learn that Gen. Schurz has been engaged to come to Connecticut to take part in the present canvass. Few men in the country are his .superiors. He is not only right on the great questions of the day, but he knows why he is right And that we all know is the chief thing. There are great many men in this world who are all right, who vote right feel right, act right i; but who lack the faculty to tell the world ,ohy they are what they are, and aDhy they believe as they do. Gen. Schurz is not one of them. He can give the world reasons, strong, unanswerable reasons for the faith that is in him. He is a, tower of strength, and his speeches will shake the citadel of copperheadism to it's Let him come over then and help us, he will do us good.

S.AL UEATOK ".

Feeling the necessity of a paper that shall represent truly the interests of Labor and the Workingmen of Con- necticut, we have decided to establish the "Liberty Bell and Workingman's Advocate"
 We shall encourage no conflict be- tween capital and labor. The true interests of capital are the highest interests of labor, and the highest interests of labor are the real inter- est of capital.
 . We shall seek to so elucidate the principles on which both are based, as to secure to each it's true position and to both hearty cooperation. But while Capital has it's able organs without number, Labor has been left without any accepted, independent advocate among the Press.
 We hope to show how the weari- some hours of toll may be lessened and it's burdens frightened, both for men and women, and at the same time to have justice meted out to all; that it is for the true interests of all, that children shall be employed a less number of hours in mills than they are at present, and to demand for them what it is our duty to give-a chance for education. In short, we shaiN advocate such measures as shall securf to the laborer all his just de- man9s.
 we shall at the same time advo- ca 1te liberty fol. all men everywhere j; al nd believing that the true interests of our country, and the true inter- ests of freedom everywhere, as well as the rights of labor, are best se- cured in the hands of the great Un. ion party that carried our country successfully through the war, we shall advocate the principles and candidates of that party. e .a4|
 This paper will also commend to the consideration of a grateful peo- pie, the band of union soldiers that have illustrated a noble patriotism and secured by their valer and blood a heritage of freedom to us and our children forever. #.- 'e
 We shall advocate protection to home industry against foreign capital and labor. ~ " ~...... ., l
 With these objects in view, we give our hands to the work and look with confidence for success. |

The forlorn hope of the democrat ic party in Connecticut rested upon successful manipulation of the
 Workingmen of the state into an en- dorsement of James E. English and the principles he represents. This hope was stimulated among the man. agers by the belief that the plans they laid months ago, were being so successfully carried out by paid
 agents in the manufacturing towns, that the convention called in behalf of the laboring men of the State could be packed and handled with
 but little effort. Accustomed to fraud in political management, these men fattered themselves that the honest mechanics in our manufactories
 would be easy victims to their cupid ity. How we'll their plans worked
 we have seen in the action of the workingmen's convention, where the
 independence of free men displayed itself in striking contrast with the
 political treachery of the democratic
 wire,pullers and their hangers-on,
 who interfered with the legitimate
 business of the convention, and
 sought, in the most dishonarable
 manner, to force questions and deci- sions in direct opposition to the will
 of majority of the members. The result was as might have been expected-the utter defeat of the in- terloping cabal, and the maintenance of the rights and manhood of the workingman. Thus did the forlorn
 hope of approximation in" Connecti- cut come to "make the heart sick in every democratic committee room where there had been loud expres- sions of confidence but a few hours before. .., .f as..saa ls,. 24. asl 4
 Looking at the condition of the two parties now before the people, bearing in mind the history of both, and holding up, as a mirror, the rec ord of each that even the wayfaring man may not be deceived, we cannot but honor the faithful workingmen who had the wisdom to see, and the courage to defeat, the purposes of the democratic leaders. 1t is the pride of our New England that the hnmblest man is the equal of every other man in all that constitutes equal rights before the law, and that the intelligence which comes to him as 8 birthright is shield which pro tects him from the evil designs of selfish men, such as to-day control the democratic party without princi- pie, and with but one object in view, the attainment of place and power at l any and every hazard. This New l England intelligence has long been a | safeguard against the encroachments l of false theories, religious and politi- cal. From it has sprung the strong l mind and courageous heart of the mighty West, throughout whose bor- ders to-day there is intense devotion to the cause of progress, which is the cause of all men, and an earnest en- thusiasm on the side of the great Union party of the country, to whose efforts mankind are indebted for the safety and security of republican in- stltutlons.
 The strongest proof we have in of the false position as- sumed by the copperhead party in their professions of regard for the in- berests of workingmen, is in the char acter of the candidates they have nominated. Look at the wealth of three of these candidates

CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP-Once two ministers of the Gospel were conversing on ex- temporaneous preaching
 Well, ," said the old divine, waxing warm. "you are ruining yourself by writing your sermons and reading them of. Your congre- preaching, and you are called upon to preach unexpectedly, unless you could get hold of an old sermon, you would be completely confused. The young divine used all his eloquence, but in vain, to convince the old gentleman that the written sermon expressed his own thoughts and convictions, and if called upon, he could preach extemporaneusly.
 GAS we are of the same faith" said the young minister, suppose you try me next Sunday morning. On ascending to the pulpit you can hand me text from any part of the Bible, and will convince you that can preach without having looked at the text be- fore stand up. Likewise, must be allowed the same privilege with you. and see who will make the best of il" - The idea seemed to delight the old gentle \ man, and it was immediately agreed upon.
 The following Sabbath, on mounting the pulpit his senior brother handed him slip of paper, on which was written, And the ass opened his mouth and spake ;'' from which he preached glorious sermon, chaining the at tention of his delighted hearers, and charm ing his old friend with his eloquence
 In the afternoon, the young brother, who was sitting below the pulpit, handed his slip After rising and opening the Bible, the old man looked sadly around, d,-"Am not thine ass" Pausing few moments, he ran his fn- gers through his hair, straightened his collar, blew his nose like the last trumpet, and read aloud I not thine assf Another pause, in which deadly silence reigned After reading the third time.

 DICKENS ON RAILWAY AcCIDENTs.-Mr. Charles Dickens has written letter to the London ISmes with the view of preventing the possibility of . terrible railway accident. He states that while on his way by express train upon the Midland railway from Leicester to London, the reckless fury of the driving, and the violent rocking of the carriages, obliged him to leave the train at Bedford, rather than % on with his through ticket to London. The alarm of the passengers, he says, was very great; and he adds that, although he is railroad traveller of some experience. in this country and on the Continent, and was likewise in the Staplehurst accident, he was never so shaken and flung about as in the train from Leicester to Bed ford, and was never in such obvious danger. The beginning of MT. Dickenss letter is. char- acteristic ]: :. It is better to prevent horrible accident by timely cautions than sagaciously to observe, after its ocenrrence that any one acquainted with the circumstancesv out of which it arOee might have foreseen il"
