Among the Democrats the predominant
sentiment seems to be that as between Grant
aud Greeley the latter would lie infinitely
preferable. But there arc thousand rc;l-
sons why Horace Greeley would he dstaste-
full and offensive to Democrats. It is impos-

nomination, or contemplate his possible cleo
ton except us an evil of less magnitude
than the continuance Of the present disgust

Just as she was showing off, officer Bail
ey, who was on duty at the landing, heard
the report Of a pistol The report was
heard by all the bystanders. The officer
asked in what direction the report was.
Somebody replied that it was in the direc-
ton of Clinton street. The officer started
on run in that direction, accompanied by
three young men. On reaching Water
street he followed along that street to the
foot of Clinton street. On reaching the
corner of the street, the officer could hear
nothing, but peering through the gloom,
he saw fire about midway of tie length
of the street. Telling those who We're with
HIM to remain back, he started for the spot
and found the IRE to be the clothing of a
man lying wounded on the sidewalk, and
just gasping for his last breath. 1T was
found that he had been shot. A hasty ex-
animation showed that the ball had enter
ed the body on the left side, about two
inches below the breast, passing entirely
through the body in downward course,
and out at the back. There were evidences
of a terrible struggle. An umbrella, iden-
tilted as belonging to the dead man, was
found lying on the sidewalk six or eight
feet below the body. \ sword cane, also
identified as the property of the murdered
man, crushed and splintered as from vio-
lent use, was found lying Just over the gut
ter in the street, a little farther from the
body than the umbrella, and in a different
direction. On the opposite side of the
street was found the weapon that had I'M
.in,,I,.s-iI- - -t-..,,-rlr OF ti,.,tn
1t was large oIl-fashionci horse pistol.
The body was fully identified as that of
( Captain Colvocoretses. The absence of
the small hanf-satchel was remarked bv the
hotel people, and the police instituted a
( search for it. 1t was found undera freight
car. 1t had been cut open and rlfed of
whatever it contained. The cantain :

! tanned he carried that night, was missing
The murder has been traced to two New

/ The chief Of police Of Bridgeport, skill
FIJI New York detective, says that these
thieves are not the murlcrers, since their
contederateS, if they had shadowed Colvo-
. coresscs from New York to Bridgeport
would have had fine pistols, such as skilled
New York cracksmen carry, whereas the
weapon found is an oil-fashioned horse
pistol. 1t has been aScc.tained that the

eral successful stock operations, he insured
his life for $4,000. He visited New
York during the last week, stopping both
in coming here and returning at the Ster

On Monday evening last he reached Bridge
port by the IIousatonic train, which ar
rived in that town at 9:0j p. NJ, intending
to take the steamer at / O clock the same
evening for this city. On reaching Bridge
port lie repaired direct to the boat and en-
gagged his passage. He had two satchels
one an ordinary-sized travclin@.bag, which
he deposited in his state room, and the
other small handbag, which he seemed
to guard with great care, never letting it
90 out Of his hand. After securing hi,
passage ticket and state room, he walled
up to the Sterling House ana called for Il
hot supper. The clerk looked up to the
clock and noticed that it wa. some minutes
after =, and told him that they could not
serve hot meal after o'clock, but would
give him g cold bite" But the captain
was hungry, and asked if there was res
turant near where he could get what he
wanted. He was directed to an qatino
house around the corner, and Young man
connected with TIE hotel was summoned to
point out the place to him. He had a small
handbag which he continued to guard SO
carefully as to attract the notice Of the
clerk. This bag he took with him when
he went to the restaurant In due time he
returned again to the hotel, where he lirht
cd his cigar and remained some time in
conversation with the landlord and clerk
At last he remarked that 1t was about time
to be starting for the boat The clerk
looked mp and saw that it was about 1880
by the clock in the Office, and replied thar
he was in good time to catch the boat.

minutes longer. Then Colyocoressss walk. /

RAILROAD AID.

The vote taken on the Lake Shore
Railroad proposition to all by a $4,000
subscription to the capital stock, was
carried by AL majority. In the 2nd and
4th wards there were only II and 81
votes, making 81 votes in all cast against
il on the North side. On TIE South
side there was more opposition, which we
learn grew out of some intolerant or in
temperate language used by the friends of
the proposition in the early part of the day,
in the lst ward, which made the opposi-
ton make more of an effort than they
otherwise would. The vote all told,
against the proposition, was 1877, out Of
795 votes polled, against COS votes in favor.
Since election day, however, we have
heard nothing hut the bast of good nature
while speaking Of the results of the con-
fct, and we do not know of the least bitter
ness existing to day, on account thereof,
which we have heard all classes Of citi-
zens mention with pride and mental con
gratulations.
1t will soon, if not imHediairlB secure
US all the connections VIC have been wish
ing to obtain to the mutual benefit of all
interests and parties concerned, and we
think within thirty days all will be able to
see that we have acted wisely in voting
the bonds.

From the Chicago Tribune June Z.
In 1853 he (Wilson) was the Free Soil
candidate for Governor Of Massachusetts,,
but was defeated, and at once made new
departure in the politics Of that day, by
organizing the Know Nothing party in his
State. lie was the prime mover in the cs-

quent collisions, and eventually compelled
both Irish and Germans to leave for other
States where they could live il security
and peace. Mr.. Wilson, more than any
other man, inspired the political action Of
the Know Nothing councils, and organized
and directed their movements with the sole
purpose of excluding foreign born citizens
from politics, and making foreign birth
sufficient cause for bo;h personal and po-
litical ostracism BY virtue Of his leading
position in the order, and the success with
which native American principles were adj
yocated and applied under his direction,
he received the Know Nothing nomination
for Governor, but declined in favor of
Gardner, as he had higher game in view.
Gardner was elected and a Know Nothing
Legislature also, and the secret machinery
was at once set to work which elected
Wilson to the United States Senate in
lS55-a position which he has held ever
since.
