That was an interesting episode in the
proceedings of the house OF representa-
tives on Wednesday, wherein the insolent
Julian, from this state, was denounced as
coward" by Mr.. Chanler ofNew York,
who was sitting, or standing, in Julian's
immediate ncghborhood. Julian's friend
and colleague, the Speaker, came quickly
to his aid, by pronouncing Mr.. Chanler's S
remarks out of order. 1t is something
very remarkable that democratic members,
when called upon to speak of these radicals
and their infamous measures, always are
out of order according to the rulings of
Speaker Colfax. So far as the practical
effect is concerned, it would be just as well
for the House to adopt rule, in SO many
words, to the effect that l. shall not be in
order fora democratic member ofthe House
to reflect IN any manner upon any men,
Der or measure of the majority. This
would save the speaker good deal of
wriggling, and the minority some breath.
Julian intimated to Chanler that he
would give him an opportunity to to test
the quality of his courage Nobody
peed apprehend pistols and coife, however.
Julian has no weakness in that direction.
Happily for him, Gen. Meredith is now
sequestered in some valley among the
Rocky Mountains; and if Chanler should
send him hostile message, the nearest po-
liceman would be promptly Oh hand to
rescue the Indiana member from impend-
ing danger. OF Julian's courage, howev-
or, there can be no doubt. The manner
in which he charges upon the rebel liues
from his seat in the House. three years af-
ter the war is ended, is indubitable evidence

cepted on the part of the Club by Hon. A. B. Mygatt, who made short and eloquent t address, highly complimentary to the la- dies who had taken such interest in the cause, and full of confidence in it's com plete triumph in November.
 The flag was then raised, and as it float ed from the pole, the Band played the "Red, White and Blue;" and hearty cheers were given for the old Flag, Grant and Colfax, and the Ladies.
 Wales French, Esq. of Now Haven, and Gen. W. H. Noble of Bridgeport. followed with forcible arguments in favor of the election of Grant and Colfnx, and the meeting adjourned with three cheers for tho candidates
 The best spirit prevails here among the republicans. Many democrats will vote for Grant and Colfax, for the preservation of peace and the public fnith-instead of for Seymour and Blair, with the certainty of war, revolution and repudiation.
 A series of meetings will be held before the Election, and among others, we anti cipate the pleasure of having Hon. D. J. Warner i'll the list of speakers.
 Another correspondent favors us with the following additional particulars :-
 Many ladies graced tho occasion with their presence, taking positions where they could hear and see best. The attendance would have been larger if the weather had been more favorable before noon; but eve- ry thing passed off finely, with the excep- tion of the display of a little rebel spirit now and then, from several of our own leaders on the Seymour and Forest side of tho contest, and also from certain elactor of Roxbury, who made himself especially prominent. We must expect this, howev- CT, from men who supported Jeff. Davis during the war, and we like to. sec it, fol we believe they and their party are destin ed to meet tho same sad fate that Davis did in his attempt to dissolve the Union oi these States. Loyalty must prevail through ont the land

A large and enthusiastic republican meeting was held here on Saturday last under the auspices of tho Grant and Col. fax Club.
 In the morning, fine pole was raised in Main Street, and the meeting was called to order there, at two o'clock, with the fol- lowing organization:-
 President Col. W. J. Starr.
 Vice Presidents H. Noble, Clark Hine, Henry Sanford, Bridgewater; N. R. Smith, Roxbury; J. M. Boyd, New York.

 H. s. Sanford, Esq. of Bridgeport made the opening speech, in his usual clear and forcible style, and was frequently inter- rupted by applause.

LITCHFIELD.

At the Annual Town Meeting on Mon day, the following officers were chosen:-
 Assessors.-Hiram Merriman Anson C. Smith, Harry Clemens, Linus T. Gilbert, William q. Mill Ter.
 Board of Reliet-Lemuel O. Meafoy, Hiram W. Griffin, Albert B. Halock, Davis Morse, Aaron Baldwin.
 Selectmen.- Francis M. Halo, Horace Nichols, Frederick B. Hand, Garner B. Curtiss, Andrew J. Pierpont.

 School T1saors.- William Stevens Perry. Josiah G. Beckwith, George W. Bement.
 The Republicans made no effort, what ever, and the whole Democratic ticket was chosen without opposition, An almost en- tire change was made from the ticket of last year, and the general opinion on both sides seems to be that it was a change for the worse. The annual reports were printed-an excellent idea The condition of the treasury is satisfacto- ry; over $2, 677 of the debt paid off during the year, and surplus of $5, ,0OO to $13, ,OOO on hand with which the town instructed the treasurer to pay outstanding orders. The roads continue to be very heavy ex- pense, this years repairs amounting to $4, ,643. .--.
 There is one subject regarding which we feel obliged to repeat our protest of last year. The Board of Education should not be partisan or sectarian affair. We nom- mated two Democrats and one Republican; while the Democracy elected three Demo- crats! There are now but two ministers on the Board, both Episcopalian, and a majority of the remainder are of the same denomination. There is but one Republi- can now remaining on the Board, and he was elected in 1866, under the mistaken impression that he was Johnsonite. Is this state of things fair or judicious? If it is desirable that christian denomination, purely democratic, should control the mat ter of public education, why not take the Catholic?
