Democratic Gains ia Connecticut.

-
The result of the election in this town
Is especially encouraging TO the Democ'
rscy. There was very little Interest TAX
en- by the political committees, and every
voted or not Is he cav ft Yet the
the result was q Democratic majority Of
about $50, which is just about the aver,
age majority at town elections for several
years past. Last year the party was d.
vlded and q mixed ticket was elected.
This year Democrats took our advice and
concluded to fight the enemy instead of
their friends. The old fight OF factions Is
now happily ended, and the party lie In a
position 10 do good service in the spring
campaign. The Democrats OF Walling-
ford have seen the error Of their ways,
and elected the regular ticket by about 40
majority. This speaks well for the party
in that sterling old town. The efforts OF
9 few to create dissensions were success.
ful for . time, but the common interest in
the success of Democratic principles has
produced harmony. We regret that the
Democrats Of Hartford were not animst-
ed by the same spirit az those OF Wal,
lingford and New Haven. Owing to local
discussions only a portion Of the Dem
ocratic ticket was elected. The board ol
selectmen is divided. The Democrats
elect the town clerk and most of the sub
ordinate officers. SO far as returns have
been received, very few changes have beer
made. North Haven, which has beer
steadily Republican 10 or Is years, wen
Democratic by 6 majority on Monday
Norwalk has usually been good for abou'
200 Republican majority, but this year !
elects a citizens ticket. A special dis
patch to the Register saysthat the Radics
slate for town officers was defeated by I
large majority. Other towns in the Stat,
have done well. Braniord, divided lae'
year, elects a clean Democratic board
Barkhampsted, which has heretofore beer
a very close town, gives 90 Democratic
majority.--Ne HaUsn Register.

ALI About Oysters.

Oyster Soup putt two quarts Of oysters,
liquor and all, in o pan, Get them on the
stove to heat but don't lot them boil, or
come very near TO II; nov drain all the
liquor into your soup kettle, put ina pint
of water and two quarts OF new milk, hall
a pound Of butter, a little whole allspice
and pepper; have the oysters all this
time where they will keep warm, add
them and salt to taste just as you are
ready to serve the soup break up some
crackers fine and put into the soup before
tho oysters are put In.
Salt should always BIO the last thing put
in any soup stew OF fricassee, where milk
is used, or it is apt to curdlo. Oyster
should never be boiled, but only scalded ;
Ii makes them tough and shriDks them all
Up if they are to be stewed, heat them
hot, but don't boil them. Always have
the soup or gravy hot.
Oyser Stew-Put as many good fresh
oysters, with their liquor, ss you think
you will need in q pan on the stove To
heat, but not boil. Drain the juice off
into q saucepan ; as soon as 1t boils add
hall q pound of butter and some pepper;
when this hoils add a pint OF cream and
thicken q little with -four after this boils
up once, put in the oysters and more salt
ii necessary. Serve hot.
Oyster Tooa-The same, only no cream;
thicken the Juice a little with -four; when
the stew Is resdy have q few slicts OF
toast laid IN a dish (well buttered), and
pour the oysters into 1t. 1t is best TO
heat the dish hot that you put your oys'
ters in to send to the table, as they are 80
much better hot than mercy warm.
Custer Steu aDithout Neam.-Make In
all respects the same as with cream, only
substituting half a pint Of water for the
cream. Many persons prefer oysters
stewed In this way.
Opster Friaers Make q batter Of milk,
-four, eggs, cream Of tartar, ssleratus, salt
In proper proportion. Don't make any
thicker than for pancakes. Drop an
oyster into each epoon Of batter as you
dip 1t out and fry In hot lard, brown well
on both sides.
Clusters Frfed-Drain the oysters well,
roll in fine rolled cracker and fry In hot
lard and butter, two-thirds lard and one
third butter.
Custer Pie--Line q deep basin with puff
paste, fold q large towel and place inside
to support the lid, then roll and ornament
q piece OF paste, the same 90 for u common
pie, put on the basin and bake slowly
have an oyster stew made as above, with
out cream, and fill the basin as oon as thu
paste is done. Serve Immediately.

The North Carolina Calamity.

As everybody knows by this time, the
State ofNoFth Carolina recently met with
a dreadful calamity. The "loyal people"
were defeated in the regular State cleo
ton, and the State passed under the
bloody rule ofthe "Ku .klux." Gen. Hol.
den and that loyal patriot, Capt. XIX, did
all that scalawagery could do to avert the
catastrophe, but without avail. "Rebel-
lion" was irresistible, and the unhappy
State is now completely in the hands of
"the enemies of the Union"
The result Of this immeasurable disaH'
ter Is that perfect peace and tranquility
reign throughout all tho borders ofthe State
The salubrious disorders that illustrated
the loyal policy Of Holden and Kirk have
ceased. The murders. robberies and VIC.
lence that. the wide columns Of the New
York Tribune and Forney's Chronicle
could scarcely contain have vanished as II
by magic. There Is nothing going on to
stimulate the growth of "loyalty" in that
devoted State, ana therefore that inspir-
ing sentiment has sunk into degradation
and disgrace. Loyal militia can no longer
bsrrass the people and defy the laws with
safety, and loyal officials can no longer in
dulge in the patriotic pastime of stealing
the public moneys. The bloody "Ku'
klux" will not permit those things; and,
in one word, venality, robbery, and the
business of " outrages' have ceased, ard
peace, good order, law, liberty and per-
sonal security reign in North Carolina to
a greater degree. than at any time since
the war.
The South needs q few more of these
North Carolina caIamities. Nothing
would bring such speedy relief to South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mis-
sissippi, Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana
and we had almost said Missouri-as the
utter overthrow of that artificial and OK.
otto power called Radicalism, and q good
wholesome "rebel" victory like that which
has visited North Carolina. The Rcpub.
lican theory has been that the government
ofthese States could not be safely eptrust'
ed to the hands OF their people, and,
therefore, the power Of the executive, the
authority of Congress, and the bayonets
OF the army have been harshly exeried
for five years TO keep the government out
of the hands of their people, and give 1t
to q horde of northern vagabonds and
southern negroes. But actual experience
has proved that this theory has been q
falsehood and q crime. Tennessee, Viz.
ginia and North Carolina each In turn
overthrow the '1oyal' party and passed
into the hands of their people and the
result is that Tennessee, Virginia and
North Carolina, each In turn, have be-
come abodes of tranquility and order.
The urgent need of the Southern States,
Of the Northern States, Of the whole
country, is q repetition of the North Car.
olins phenomenon-the overthrow Of des.
potic centraliam, the establishment Of
Republican government, the restoration
of their rights TO the people, the arrest Of
corruption and venality, the extension TO
every citizen of the liberties that the Con.
etitution and the laws promise him, and
the condign punishment of those who
have violated this constitution and these
laws. Missouri Republican.

Once upon . time there lived a couple
known far and wide for their continual

"Two bearsl" was the sstonished reply.
