Obituary.

Death has recently called away from this community a lady whose memory is cher ished by all who knew her. Mrs. Charles Adams. 33 aaayHt Jd y8aa5 tg She united a fine understanding with cultivated tastes. and independence, with great sweetness of character During. the latter years of her life, her sphere had been much contracted by ill-health; but she had in a high degree the traits which make beautiful an invalid's life; intelli- gence, cheerfulness, and a loving interest in others. She was thus peculiarly cen ter of affection in her family. Over all, from earliest years, was shed the light of Christian faith. Sustained by this, she saw with cheerful serenity the approach of death, and departed in the. hope of glo- rious immortality. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints"

The October Elections.

We hope the Republicans of Litchield County will not forget that next Monday is the day that fixes the fate of each town for year to come. A partisan Board scarcely everfails to make it's partisanship so felt at aspfing election~ as to render effective opposition impossible. At the October meetings. energy tells on the re- suits in g way thatit can never do in the heat of spring election. because it has no corresponding energy on the other side to fight against. @
 Let the Republicans of every doubtful
 town in this county do their duty next Mon- day. and the record of April, 1870, will show tremendous improvement on the record of April, 1869. 5 s3is sd

 The small pox excitement has entirely died out, and all danger of contagion is ap- parentiy over. The only case we have re- gently heard of was that of one of our we'll known citizens, who was sum mnioned to Litchfeld to attend court, He wrote to the authorities stating that he had been exposed to small pox. and they at once re- quested him not to attend Since receiv ing his excuse he has had no alarming symptoms, and it is to be hoped that he will escape the disease entirely. . sd
 Notwithstanding the heavy rain on Sunday last, a very large congregation as- sembled to listen to Rev. Dr.. Murdoch's farewell sermon. He chose for his text the passage "Little children, it is the last time.''
 As the sermon will in all probability be printed for distribution, it is unnecessary to attempt a synopsis at this time. It was a simple and feeling discourse, just such as was appropriate for the occasion. large ly retrospective, and full of the tenderest regard for all his people. 5,4 so.
 It was impossible for Dr. Murdoch to conceal his own emotion, and there were few dry eyes in the congregation, especial ly at the close of the sermon, when he, in the most solemn and impressive manner, commended all to the watchfula care and tender mercies of the great Head of the Church. His departure will be universal ly regretted both by the church and the community generally. '- 15- Q"
 - The repairs on the Housatonic Depot here are finished, and it is vastly improved, much to the qualification of the patrons of the road in this vicinity. - s At town meeting. held on tue 25shj inst. the Selectmen were instructed to lay out the road petitioned for by Dr: Hine, through his lots west of the railroad. ! We notice from the article of your Washington correspondent that he was greatly pained at the immortality of some kind, i've couldn't. exactly understand what) that he witnessed here on the 18th. What pity it is that he did not bring a larger delegation from Washington, to help us preserve tue purity of our morals Be- riously speaking, for so large gathering, the number of incorporate men seen in the streets was not unusually large, and they were without exception people from out of the town. .-.,l, rsf,g,.'. .,.''p .,r1I

nea- The Winsted Herald of last we

n@- The Winsted Herald of last week announces that Capt. Samuel B. Horne, of that place, has gone into partnership with Hon. William K. Peck, for the practice of law at Grand Rapids, Michigan. ea..' ii
 Capt Horne is one of tt-s most promis- ing of the many young men, hereabouts, whose pluck and abilities were first 'devel- oped by the wer He was tue first oolunteer iron, Ae State of Connecticut. A great war meeting was held at Camps Hall in West Wlnsted, on the Sunday evening after the attack on Sumter, and one hundred men signed an agreement to go to the war. In Crofut and Morris '' History of Connecti- cut during the Recent War" (page 46) we find the following rotice of Capt. Horne's enlistment, and the note subjoined, giving brief sketch of bls subsequent career in the field:-f ...~. 4l
 The great Winsted meeting resulted in g compa- ny filled and officered during the week. The first man who enlisted was Samuel B. Horne, as & pri- vate, only seventeen years old. 7I.w 1y1
 lNOTE. 1OunS aOrue, WHO WaS pFODdpIy Iuo first volunteer in Connecticut, was quite small of his age; and would have been rejected had it not been for his importantly. He served faithfully during the three months service; re-enhsGed, and bore musket. as private, for eighteen months, and was then promoted to a captaincy.. He was in twenty five battles, and was wounded three times, and served at the close of the war as pro- vost marshal of the eighteenth army corps.5 Two of hls uncles were officers in the English army, one of them on Wellngton's staff at Waterloo. a
 On his return from the war, Capt. Horne commenced studying law at Winsted. On MT. Botsford's election to the office of High Sheriff in 1866, he appointed Capt Horne one of his Deputies. He served in that capacity throughout MT. Botsford'a three years term, proving most able and efficient officer. At the last session of the Legislature he was appointed one of the Messengers of the Senate; and,a the pres ent session of our Superior Court, he was admitted to the bar of this county. & 1-.-

Denver, ten years ago, was a mere clus- ter of cabins, where few enterprising mi ners lived life of coyotes, or prairie dogs.
 It is now city of near 10000 people, as nicely built as Hartford or New Haven, at the very base of the Rocky Mountains, one of f<the most beautiful natural sites in the country, with a climate that permits farm-
 CTS to keep cattle in the open air all the year round; and so attractive, especially to
 persons suffering from pulmonary disease, that it has been aptly named, by saga cious American editor, the Switzerland of America" Denver is the metropolis of the Rocky Mountains, the capital of Colo
 rado, and the largest town of territory that embraces in extent almost as much
 land as England, Ireland and Scotland; a country so rich in mineral resources that President Grant, when about to assume the office of President, pointed to it's hills as "the strong box in which gold enough
 was locked up to pay the national debt. " Denver is isolated from all connection with the Eastern States. You can only reach it
 by weary travel in stage-coaches. The
 Kansas Pacific Railway Company now pro-
 poses to link it to New York-to make 8
 connection with the Kansas Pacific Rail. road-and thus establish a. new route to
 the Pacific. This great road has 487 miles in operation. When it reaches Denver, it
 will be 652 miles long. It earned, last year,
 $2. 169, ,g61. 34, and during two months of
 this year, it's earnings have increased more
 than 100 per cent, showing net gain oi $238, 798. 57. To build this extension, the company asks loan of six and a half mil. lions of dollars. For this, it will pay per cent. interest, in gold, free of taxes. The loan runs 30 years. It is guaranteed by a special landq grant of {. .0OO, O0e acres, which will be'soideto provide sink | ing fund for the payment of the bonds. In addition to that, the company owns Is, ,O0O.OO0a acres in bi Kansas, which are being rapidly sold to develop the road. Now that the Secretary of the Treasury is endeavoring to buy 5-2O's, in order to pay
 the debt, our people could dos no better
 thing than to take advantage of the high priceso of Govefnments, and lconyert them
 into 7per cent gold bearing bonds as well secured as those ofathe Kansas Pacific Rail. ! way. M K. Jesup & Company and Dab. ney, Morgan < Go, Bankers, of New York City. are agents for this loan, and we ad. yise our readers'to send to them for pam.

 After the appearance of my last letter, John said to me that the public interest in these lucubrations would be sure to fail if they were continued too frequently, and suggested that they be omitted for time.
