MR. ED1roR;-Wiil you allow me in your columns to express to those of my people who visited us in the evening of the 18th ult., our deap sense of obligation. and ap- preciation of their sympathy and kindness, in the very generous donation which they put into our.hands. Not less as the expres- sion of their regard and attachment, than for it's intrinsic value, do we prize it. May they be abundantly rewarded in spiritual, as we'll as temporal things, and prospered in the future, as in the past. To those brethren in the ministry, also, whoso gen. erously supplied his pulpit for his benefit, he would make this public acknowledge ment, and returns his very sincere thanks. Very pleasant has been his connection with the different associations of Litchfeld North, and he will ever cherish among the most precious remains of the past his in tercourse with the brethren of this field.

On Tuesday of last week our late Pastor, W. T. Doubleday, sold at auction portion of his effects and broke up housekeeping; boarding with Mrs. Dea. J. P. Porter tenn. porarily, as he is about to leave with his family for Atlantic City, New Jersey. It was thought best on Wednesday to test the amount of esteem in which he was held here, and on Thursday evening the pecu- niary part of it, amounted to 1Ss dollars, which was received by him from the bands of J. M. w.. accompanied by very short speech. In accepting the donation MT D. remarked in substance that it was so com- pletely surprise to him, he could scarcely collect his thoughts, or find words to make suitable reply. He was deeply impressed by this expression of their sympathy, kind ness and appreciation of his ministry among them for so many years, and could truly say that, notwithstanding those an. noyances and trials which are incident to any pastoral charge, they had been to him years of satisfaction and pleasure.
 He had already from the pulpit spoken more at length of the relation that had ex- isted between them SO long, and more re- cently in the Sabbath School, and called up some of its associations and results, and it was not necessary at this time to repeat them. He assured them of his deep inter- est in their welfare. thanked them very sin. cerely on behalf of himself and family for

THE TAMMANY RING. The war against the Ring is progressing very satisfactorily. A criminal prosecution has been commen- ced against Mayor Hall. The terms of the Barnard injunction have been so changed as to allow payment of necessary city ex. penses. A suit has also been commenced against Ingersoll to recover the money he has received from the treasury on fraudu. lent vouchers. New disclosures of fraud are being constantly made. The World, even, demands the repeal of the charter, and it is expected that the Democratic State Convention will refuse to admit the Tammany delegates.

BUTLER. Butler game for the gov ernorship of Massachusetts resulted in a checkmate of that irrepressible individual at Wednesdays Convention. The Hon. Wm. B. Washburn was nominated by a vote of 643 to 464 for Butler, thus proving the correctness of the anti Butler estimates, and the danger of trusting to pure dema- goguism for success in old Massachusetts. The heavy vote which such man as Butler could poll against nearly every respectable influence in the State indicates that the gentlemen who manage Massachusetts pol itics lack strength with the people. The Convention gave the woman suffrage movement the following semi-endorse- ment:
 ,Resolued That the Republican Party of Masa- chusetts is mindful of it's oblg to the loyal women of America for their patriotic devotion to the cause of freedom that we rejoice in the late action of State Legislatures in recognizing the it. ness of women for public trust, and that in view of the great favor which the movement has receiv- ed from many of the Republican Party, the sub- ject of suffrage for women is & question that de- serves the most careful and respectful considera. tiOn,

S@- With every chance of success in New York the Republicans of that State are doing, much to deserve defeat. Senators Fenton and Conklin managed to embroil the State Convention, last week, in their personal difficulties, and the result may be @ failure to turn to account the Tammany troubles. Fenton is man to whom the suspicion of corrupt practices adheres. just. ly or unjustly; nevertheless he has the pow. erful support of the Tribune. Conklin is above any such suspicion but his conceit and want of tact were sufficiently obvious in the San Domingo affair. If New York were represented in the U. s. Senate by two Democrats. just at this iuncture, it would be much better for the Republican party.

INVESTMENT OF MoNEY.-Just now, when nea.ly every holder of Five twenty Bonds is debating in his own mind whether he had better sell out, so as to realize the great premium on. his bonds, or to wait till he is offered new bond bearing a lower late of interest, hesitation natural with many who hardly know how or where to re- invest their money so as to retain the high CT rate of interest and still have their capi- tai safe and tangible-we can refer them with pleasure to the announcement of Messrs. Fisk & Hatch, the widely known and respected Bankers, in another column. All will remember the efficiency and earn. estness of this Firm in the sale of the great Government Loans during the dark days of the Rebellion, and many will appreciate the wisdom of their great faith in the ulti. mate value of the very Five-tweRties which are now commanding high premium
 Also, at @ later date, their wonderful ac- tivity and foresight in predicting a great success for the Central Pacific Railroad, which has been 50 fully borne out by the rapid construction ard great earning ca pacities of the road, and the enviable dis- tinction it's securities have achieved the world over. Those who have had dealings with Messrs Fisk & Hatch know that their statements may be relied on and feel that when they say Bond is as sure to be paid, principal and interest, as 8 Government Bond, it means that they have given care full scrutiny to the security. and that the statement is not made on their part with out thorough conviction that it is so. They now recommend with that same con-
 fidence the Chesapeake and Ohio Bonds, of which but small portion remain unsold. We entertain no doubt that time will show their recommendation of these Bonds to have been as fully warranted as in the case of Five-twenties or Central Pacifcs.-Er.
