They must work to the same end The
fable of the faggots which, separately,
could be broken without effort, but,
bound together, were strong enough to
resist any force that could be brought To
bear upon them, teaches the lesson they
should learn. In union there is strength.

rAILoRs. CoBBLERS, AND TIMERS.

Just after the close of the Revolutionary
War, play was got up by the managers
of the Royal Theatre in London, the de.
sign of which was to bring into contempt
the republican simplicity of the American
people. The most distinguished OF the
American statesmen were brought upon
the stage in the costumes of tailors, cob
blers and thinkers. In this contempt for the
Americans, John Bull seemed to have
forgotten that he had expended two hun
dred millions of pounds and lost thirteen
Provinces, inhabited by more than thirteen
millions of people. The following incl
dent, however, is said to have brought
him to consideration of this fact :--One
evening, when the house was filled to re-
pletion, Yankee sailor, who had been
induced to witness the performance, arose
in the gallery and swinging his hat, ex-
claimed in stentorian voice threat
Britain whipt by tailors, cobblers and tin
kers. hurrah ~ This sudden exclamation
led John Bull to discover that he had been
laughing at his own expense, and the play
was forthwith discontinued.

ing, Joel W. Mason in the chair. The Secretary
called the roll, and when Police Commissioner
Russel's name was called he rose to question Of
privilege.
Mr.. RussEI-Mr. Chairman, rise to question
OF privilege. In consequence OF provision OF the
constitution debarring certain gentlemen con-
nected with the Police and Fire Departments from
membership in this body must ask the CON-
mittee to decide whether am entitled TO seat or
not. Mr.. Russell then read the provision of the
constitution referred to. Perhaps some OF the
members OF the committee do not understand the
question as do; but II we have rules and laws we
must be governed by them.
After the calling OF the roll had been finished
Mr.. Pinkney moved to refer the question TO the
Committee on Contested seats.
MaJor Bullard said the matter could be easily
and quietly settled In friendly contest.
Mr.. PATTERSON, chairman Of the Committee on
Contested seats, stated that they would report in
two weeks, and until that time the Central Com
nnttee adjourned. 1t was generally stated after
the adjournment that Mr.. Russell, In debarring

SOUTH NoRwALK, Conn.,. Feb 8, 1874.
SO great fire as that Of Sunday morning last,
especially In view OF the circumstances, has pro.
duced excitement in this usually quiet community.
1t was natural therefore, that the public should
manifest the greatest eagerness to learn what
might be the result OF an investigation into the
causes which led to that calamity, inasmuch as
suspicion as to the perpetrator pointed to person
known to many in the city. Directly alter the fire
James Savln, as already stated in the HERALD, was
arrested as the guilty one, on probable cause
being brought forward to sustain the action Of the
authorities. This morning he was the observed Of
all observers IN the City Council chamber, where
Judge Craw held court. On the prisoner, at the
time of his arrest was found knife, sworn to have
been stolen just before the fire from the stable
martngales, straps, &c. cut from harness belong

coat silk kerchieI, silver plated caster, bottles,

found on sunday in nay lott at the rear Of Lucas
tanned temporary lodgings and where he had con-
veyed the goods, in hope of disposing OF them to
his own advantage. The examination was con-
Quoted by Mr.. Ammi Giddings, City Attorney, and
many witnesses were summoned whose evidence
will, as Is thought unmstakably sustain the prose-

trial Slavin pleaded not guilty and denied every
charge made against him. The equivocai manner
in which he endeavOred to explain his where

toward fastening the crime where 1t would appear
TO belong
The prisoner was fined for theft, sentenced to
thirty days in jail Tor burglary, and lor arson he
was bound over Tor trial ut the February term OF
the Superior Court. Fainng to obtain q bond of

at Bridgeport.
Until within period of three years arson, like
murder, has been held as an unbalaDle offence In

THE KINGS COUNTY DEMOCRATIC GENERAL

The Kings County Democratic General Committee
met last night At their rooms, IN Court street.
Two sets OF delegates made their appearance from
the Tenth ward the night previous and claimed adj.
mission. The COmmit.ee on Contested Seats
proceeded to investigate the case and
settle the dispute; but they had not
made much progress before things became
rather mixed. several OF the members were
measuring their lengths on the moor, and the table
danced as II IL was moved by spirits The stove,

setting the place on fire. Some black eyes were
gratuitously distributed, and when the members
got out on the sidewalk they appeared TO eXpe
rience feeling OF relief. Last night all the dele
gates from the different wards, except those from
sible to harmonize the parties In this ward, new
election was ordered.

The contest yesterday, to iii his vacant
chair, was between Henry J. Yates, q wealthy

forth special efforts to carry their man, and with
the combined efforts OF the City Hall ring all the
Ofiiceholders and a plethoric purse succeeded Mr.
Tate's majority. however being only ffty-iour

wealthy brewers, Schalk Brothers, proessed demo-

his party, through its Mayor, enforced the Sunday

"Elenc" At Booths Theatre La.t Ntxht.
A new play by Beot was presented last evening
at Booths Theatre. IL was remarkable for two
things. One was the overacting OF almost every
member OF the cast, aud the other was the extrav.
agance OF the situations and the general violation
Of the fundamental principles OF nature and art.
1t is not play that will live. Its interest is spas
modic IL concerns itself with the experie noes OF
a gambling father and daughter who seeks to
save MIN from the consequences. 1t contains no
original characters and 1t gives small occasion for
the exertion of individual gifts In superbness OF
accessories it Will scarcely bear mention beside
other plays which have been recently produced In
this city, and which have won very fair measure
OF public applause. M. Bel0t Is clever playwright
and the present play Is smart EXPOSE
ton OF his power. What does 1T iackS
Knowledge OF life, delicacy Of sentiment, fine
adjustment OF the exigencies OF the stage
TO the demands OF social misconstructoD. Mrs.
Booth is clever actress, with strong voice ana
an admirable perseverance,. With the exception
or Miss Mary Wells, who undertook the part OF
Madame feDizonde, and Of MIR. Robert Pateman,
who enacted julius Richleu we can recall no per
former who deserves exceptional mention. In
Drie', "Elene' Is a fair success accomplished with
a t0erabe company. The principal actress is IN
telllgent and earnest; the general setting is
respectable, the support is endurabe, and the
principal reason for plaudt is because the drama
ohends no inherent prejudice.
