Historical.

An Interesting and Noteworthy Relic.
 In the library of the Historical society is to be seen one of the most valuable of histori- cal relics. It is the model of full rigged British sloop of war of the days of George the First. It has the following history
 In 176s one of the brigs belonging to the McAulays, of New Haven, was returning to this port from Bordeaux with a cargo of wine, when in the chops of the British chan nel the lookout saw miniature ship near the brig. boat was lowered, the ship picked up and brought to New Haven. It YVES de- scribed as an old ship at the time and had escaped from the parties who were sailing it. For several years 1t was kept in the McAulays' counting room. and when the house closed their business 1t was given to Mix's museum, where it was on exhibition for many years. When the ar ticles in the museum were sold the ship was bought by the late Joseph w. Bennett and at his death few weeks since became the property of the New Haven Colony Histo- ricaI society.
 It has prominently figured in many of the processions and pagsants that were seen in New Haven streets 8 century ago.
 In 17SS Connecticut adopted the federal constitution and at the head of the process sion in which paraded through the city this ship was carried with all her colors flying. She was then named ''The Constitution" !" though it was many years before the frigate "Constitution' was built When the embar- go act was passed and American commerce temporarily destroyed 8 singular procession was seen in New Haven. It was composed of all who depended upon commerce for @ livelihood. At it's head rode young man on a white horse yelled in crape. He carried 8 x5b 0n yvhioh khA laOnn6 60 grab me the anagram of embargo, For 'dambar- go" as it was called in New England. Several hundred men, among them over two hun dred seamep, marched in the procession, each wearing crape on the left arm. The ship had all of her colors at half mast and her American ensign Union down.
 When the embargo act was repealed pro- cession composed of nearly the same persons marched through the town with 8 band of musicians, flags, etc. The ship was also at the head of that procession with her colors set. The late Capt Peter Storer had charge of the ship in the two last named processions.
 When peace was declared between Great Britain and the United States at the termina- ton of our last war with that power, New Ha- ven for two days gave herself up to festivity and joy. Processions, Examinations, public dinners and ball were among the attrac- tions, and it is fact that when the celebra- ton was at last over, hardly a drop or rum or gln was Lo DO nau in the town. All had been drunk up by the overjoyed citizens in the celebration of peace. In the peace parade the old ship as usual headed the procession and from her main truck long pennant strung out, having on it 'tFree trade and sailors rights" The last time the ship appeared in procession was during the hard cider campaign, when it was in torchlight parade.
 The ship has lately been put in order by Captain Harry Bowns veteran shipmaster of the port T. R. T., JR.
