It has been said that the Cashmere is as essential to the wardrobe of well dressed la- dy as shoes to the feets Messrs. W. B. Hall 6 Go. the leaders in the Dry Goods business in Bridgeport are distributing make of Cash meres throughout the state that seem to be worthy of mention. They are known as 'the Blooming Black Cashmere" and the wool from which they are made is grown where the at- mosphere is moist and temperate, and where the sky is almost always overcast. For the reason the soft elastic and glossy 9uuiittes are retained in tho apres of the wool. Consumers of these goods all remark upon the uniformity, brilliancy and beauty of color and the distin- gushing feature about them is that every thread of the warp and filling is spun to uni form fineness and always woven with the same number of threads to the inch. These goods are also made in colors and ladies would do well to send for samples of these goods We understand this firm do large order business in silks as well as cashmeres,

A PROCLAMATION.

A APPROXIMATIONS. Iappoint Thursday, the 27th day of No vember, instant, to be day of Public Thanks giving and Praise. And earnestly invite the people of this State to observe that day as glad festival of devout and joyous remem- brance of the numberless meroies and loving kindness of Him who did bring our fathers out, and who will sustain us their children.
 Because He loved thy fathers, therefore He chose their seed after them, and brought them out in His sight with His mighty power. Know, therefore, this day, and consider it in thine heart that the Lord He is God in heaven above and upon the earth beneath there is none else, He Rill not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which He sware unto them.
 Rising othe inspiretion of this great prom. ise, let us be thankful for the generous gifts of the year, which have filled the barns of the laborer for his toll and all our people for their industry and thrift. He maketh peace in thy borders and flleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
 Let US remembeF that no evil has befallen us neither has any plague eome nigh 10 our dwell-
 May we be able to put aside envy and mal- ice, and all uncharitableness and keep this feast with sincerity and truth. And while we eat the fat and drink the sweet, may we re- member the claims upon us of all who are sick, of all who are poor, and of all who are desolate; and forget not to send a portion to him for whom nothing IS prepared. - Given under my hand and the seal (r of the State, at the Capitol in Hart h' ford, this eighth day of November, in " the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy-nine, and of the independence of the United States the one i hundred and fourth.

 Game of all kinds is scarce here with the exception of that fragrant animal, the polecat. One can hardly go into the fields at night without meeting one or more of them. Dr. Wood, of Wolcottville ran over one while re- turning from 9 visit to- patient here one uight, and got his clothes and equipage we'll scented. Even our pastor has been well per- fumed in brush with one. One old gentle man, returning on foot through the woods one night, from a visit to his lady-love, saw what, in the dim light appeared to be bundle in the road in front of him. He approached with the intention of picking it up but just as he was about tq do go, the strong odor emanating from the supposed package, warned him just in time to save his new, suit. which he had purchased for his approaching wedding, from perfume that would have been anything but pleasant!

There is to be contested election case of considerable interest from Cornwall. Both the Democratic Representatives from that place were declared elected, by one majority over one of the Republicans, and six over the other. The counters made no such certificate as the law requires, and, before the boxes were sealed up, the moderator made recou nt which showed that the highesl of the Repub- lican candidates had two more votes than had been counted for him. This made him one higher than the two Democrats, and left them tie for the second place. Should this latter count prove the correct one, on an examina- ton of the boxes, the Republican will be enti- tied to his seat. and both the Democrats will be unseated, since neither has 8 majority over the other.

Congressional District that no man can now be
 elected in it without the lavish expenditure oi money. He has taken the U. S.. Senatorship
 due to Richard D. Hubbard, as his own legiti-
 mate reward for lavish campaign expenditures.
 For years the Democracy of Connecticut has
 suffered itself to become the tool of Wu. H. Barnums corrupt ambition. It is at last reap ing the harvest of condemnation that has been
 so long ripening. There are Republican politicians, too, who are practicing the meth ods inventented by Barnum. Unless we greatly mistake the temper of the people the
 career of everyone of these politicians will be
 much shorter and much less successful than 1 that of the man he initiates. An intelligent party will not long retain it's respect for can- 1 didate who is nothing more than bad Repub-
 lican copy of so bad Democratic original. Little as we like Tilden's political methods or sympathize with his political aspirations, we cannot help thinking that the tax suit against him, which is being pressed with such pertinaci- ty, savors sensibly of persecution. The facts seem to be these: Tilden, like thousands of other men of rapidly increasing means, failed to make any return of his income. The gov- ernment assessor put it down at such an amount as he chose, and on tha: amount Til den paid the tax. Had the assessor been fellow politician or had there been any sus- picion of collision, the question would have been very different one, but such is not the case. Has any prominent Republican, or has any other of the men who were rapidly accu- mulating property during the income tax period, ever been prosecuted for not paying g larger tax than the too lenient assessor set down against him? We have heard of no such instance. We thought at the time, and think yet,tlfat Mir. Tilden was prosecuted simp- ly with g view of making political capital against him.
 The Springfield Republican considers the large Butler vote and the small Democratic vote at the recent Massachusetts election as certain to give the Butler delegates admission to the next Democratic convention. "The men who nominated Gen. Butler two years in succession, and have solid column no, 900 votes to show for their warrant, will not be left long to cool their heels while the claims are considered of those who led the melancholy retreat of the ten thousand,'"

Senator Bayard. of Delaware, seems now to have decided lead over all the other Demo- cratic candidates for the nomination of 1880. The October election shelved Thurman the November election has killed Tilden's chances; and now nobody seems to have so favorable a showing as Bayard. Hendricks might be stronger in Indiana, but he would be decidedly weaker in New York, New Jersey and Con- neeticut Hancock is urged as soldier can- didate, but how could he 'enthuse" with the soldiers in comparison with Grant? Every thing just now points to Bayard as the best man the Democracy can put up in 1880.

SENATORS.
ENTERTAINMENTS,

The Senate is strengthened by the election
 Of Messrs. Brewster of Danbury, Buck of Hartford, and Colt of New London. In the
 House we look over the Republican side in
 vain for the leaders who will take the places of Messrs. Robinson of Hartford, and Brews- ter of Daubury. There are some excellent new members, however, on that side, such as Messrs Nichols of Danbury and Battell of Norfolk MT. Dwight Marcy, of Vernon, is the chief candidate for Speaker, and Mir Vim cent Colyer. of Darien, is again on hand to stir up the legislature to compel the railroads to do
 the people justice. On the Democratic side, Messrs. G. H. Hollister of this place, Dwight Morris of Bridgeport, and Luzon B. Morris of New Haven, will no doubt prove competent leaders for the small force the Democrats num-
 Der in the present House, and will exercise an important influence on general legislation. There are apparently few subjects of general l interest to come up for action before the pres ent legislature. We hope that minority repre-
 sentation and woman's municipal suffrage will l meet with more encouragement in this than in the last legisiaFnfe. we nope that the Senate,
 especially. will show the effect of an infusion l ot new blood.
 MERrTED DEFEAT.-Speaking of the over- l whelming defeat of the Connecticut Democra-
 cy, at last weeks election, the Hartford cores 1 pondent of the Springfield Republican re- l marks:
 Your average Connecticut democrat is a blind follower of the blind, destitute alike of courage and convictions and led by few flu. l glers who are under the dictation of two or three hourbens who don't know that they are dead, and of one or two capitalists.
 Nothing could be truer. Bourbon Eaton,
 Capitalist BaFnim, sHd Railroad Magnate Bishop, have dominated the Democracy of
 Connecticut for many years past. Eaton i,
 thoroughly honest, but thorough Bourbon
 Bishop has simply tended of attacks op his l railroad monopoly. Of all these influences
 decidedly the worst has been the Barnum in l duence. He has so demoralized the Fourtt
