A washout occurred yesterday on the Valley road, a little this side of Middletown. It is a place where there was formerly a long trestle. which had been filled in. Men were at work promptly and it is expected that trains will be able to pats this morning. A man in town who is possessed of many oddities, has just had his photograph taken which exhibits a placard across his breast on which is his name and age, tbe direction of tbe wind when the sitting took place, and some other peculiar features.

The unnual sale of pews at the South Bap tist church will occur this evening, after which tbe adjourned annual meeting will be hd, and every member or the society is re quested to be present, as business of Import ance is to be considered.

Tho Roman Catholic priests of the state have been notified that Bishop McMahon will visit Rome soon after Easter. Notification is given thus early that the priests who have any bus! ness to transact with him or any counsel to take, might lie forewarned that they have but a few weeks iu which to see the bishop before his departure. He will piobablv be gone sev eral months. It is expected that he will make a number oi clerical changes be tore ne satis, The Polo Game. Saturday afternoon's game at the rink be tween sevens captained by Masters Williams and Pierson, resulted in a victory for the team under Captain Williams, tbe score standing 8 toO.

The plaving Satnrday nigbt lietween the Thomastons and the first seven of the Harford club, was the most exciting ever seen in this city, tnegame orenea at nomas ton made the first goal in a few minutes and the Hartford scored one a few minutes later. The third inning lasted nearly a half hour, when it had to be abandoned to allow the visitors to catch their traiu for homo. The game was de clared a draw. 1 ne playing or both sides was excellent, and the large audience cheered and applauded every fine play. The Hartfords play the Thomastons at aterbury to-morrow mgnt.

Police Matters. In the police court Saturday morning, Michael J. King, ho keeps a grocery and liquor store on the corner of Ward and Lawrence streets, was brought up on a charge of selling liquors to minors aud of allowing minors to loiter about his premises. The first charge was oon-tinned to Saturday of this week. On the sec ond ho was tried on five counts and found guilty on three.

He was fined 5 on each, and appealed in $201) bonds. James Rogers, or Peterson, is an insane man who was released from the state prison on Fri day. He has a fancy that some one is following him to take his life, and when put on board a train for New London, by the agent of the Prison association, declined to go, and asserted that another prisoner had been let out on purpose to take his life. Before being taken to the train, be had visited the office of a gentleman in this city and attempted an assault. After the scene at the depot, he was taken to the sta tion bouse ana will be sent to the insane asylum.

His conviction was lor neriurv. in swearin? that he owned a yacht which it appeared he had stolen. Going Out Like a Lion. Mr. Wiggins will probably claim that his storm arrived, though it is not quite the cata- clyjni he predicted.

It was unpleasant enough at all events, and the sudden fall in the temperature, the violent wind aud the clouds of dust, combined with the general condition kuown as "Hood weather, made the last day oi tne uiontn wna euougn to compensate tor any pleasant March days that may have aecl-leutuily got iu duriug the last week or two. The change came on suddenly late Saturday evening, it had been growing colder, and sud denly a violent wind came without notice. It blew all nigbt, and the mercury kept falling. Sunday morning it stood at twelve degrees aoove zero on tne aua was aouotiess several degrees lower in some other parts of the city. At noon it stood about at the freezing point, aud fell again considerably at night AU ay me wma blew a gaie, or, in nautical lan guage, at least "Half a gale.

Jtteoorts from the Sound show that the blow was worse there than here. The Stouiugton steamer did not leave Saturday, though the boats of this line usually make a special point of going through. The storm was accompauied by. or else was a part of, an electric storm. Last evening in va rious parts or toe city, very noticeably bv the railroad station, tne electric wires gave out simiKS continually, being overcnarged with electricity.

It was very difficult working the telegraph wires. i nei-e uas been a great destruction of tele graph bnes, how much can not yet be deter- miuea. in mis cny, nve po witn their wires, were down between the tuunel crossinsr and the river. All through the evening there was no telegraphic communication from the east, and that from New York was much de layed. THE HIVKR FALLING.

The Chancel Asalnsl Another Heavy itlauy Loungers Along- the Hank. The river reached a height of 21 feet and a half Saturday afternoon and began to fall slowly. During Sunday the fall was some what more rapid, and at 6 o'clock the government gauge showed 20.6 feet and the freshet going down at the rate of an inch an hour. Mr. ooodnch of the transportation company, who is a pretty good authority on the probabilities of such a case, says the chances are against its coming again as high this season as it already has done.

Ths cold weather has shut off much of tbe supply at the north and the violent wiud is driving the water out at a rate which will lower it two feet in the next 24 hours. Before there is much more melting of snow or a new rainfall, much of the water will have run off. Conjradiotory reports are received as to tbe quantity of snow yet to come, some to the effect that there is a good deal and others that it is practically gone. The wind yesterday raised quite a sea all across the space that is usually known as the cjun narttora meadows, ao damage was reported except a slight washinc of a railroad embankment at Pigville and this not of a kind iu luteriere at ail witp travel. One of tbe most noticeable things was the absence of the crowd that, on Sundays especially, collects along the river bank in freshet time.

The day was too much for ail but a few enthusiasts, and the alley road platform, which is the great vww6 at suon uruas, was deserted, Neither Sera Jtflurttisemtitts.

But It became evident early in the evening that it was not pariflcation of the moral atmosphere which the mob was after. The riot, as always happens, had brought the dregs of the population to the surface, joyful of the excuse to attack constituted authority, intent on bloodshed, arson and pillage. The honest workingmea who took part in this second night's work had forgotten their original grievance in the desire to avenge the death of their friends, shot by the militiamen the night before. By a simply unaccountable and inex- cuseable oversight, the sheriff, while fortifying the jail, had left the adjoining courthouse practically undefended. The mob were not long in making the discovery.

They swarmed into the building through the windows, heaped the furniture, law books, record books and papers in the middle of the floors, and set them on fire. The first alarm was sounded by the fire bells at a quarter to ten o'clock; the riot alarm had been rung some time before. The fire department did not respond, for the very good reason that responding was out of the question. From the rapidity with which the Barnes spread, it is supposed that some communists in the crowd had come provided with coal oil; one is quoted as saying with grim humor that they were going to make Cincinnati "the Paris of America." We hear also of dynamite bombs thrown into the jail yard. At half -past ten o'clock a company of mUtia sent by the sheriff to try to save the court-house was met with a volley of revolver shots which killed the captain and two of his men outright and wounded many other.

One fire company, more courageous than the others, tried to force its way through the mob, but the men were driven back and the engine smashed with axes. By this time the court house was past saving, ablaze from bottom to top. It is hoped that the treasurer's safe and the vaults have escaped, but the recorder's and auditor's offices are gutted, and the court records are in ashes. At eleven o'clock the troops began firing ball cartridges, and the Gatling was brought into play with deadly effect. A portion of the mob, as gu the previous night, ctarted for the gun stores.

One of these was garrisoned by determined men who succeeded in driving the riot" era off. The night trains brought in two militia regiments from the country, the Fourth and the Fourteenth. The former, for some reesou still to be explained, bugged the depot until the immediate need of their services was over, but the latter gallantly forced their way through the mob, clearing the streets before them, and joined the garrison of the jaiL Their arrival seems to have had a discouraging effect on the rioters, and to have practically euded the serious fighting for the time being. Lists, doubtless imperfect, of Saturday night's casualties will be found in our dispatches. Sunday found the respectable citizens fully awake at last to the shame aud peril of the situation.

The mayor had left a sick bed, at the imminent risk of his life, to take the direction of matters into his own hands. He called upon the state authorities for all available troops, summoned the leading men of all parties to his assistance, invited law-abiding people to enroll themselves as special policemen, aud issued a vigorously worded proclamation. Two regiments aud a battalion of dragoons arrived during the day, and another regimeut and cwo batteries reported them selves ou their way. About eight o'clock lait evening a shot from a skulkiug rioter gave notice that trouble was not yet over. The guard replied, the Gatllug was wheeled into use, and a respected pork-packer who had imprudently ventured out of his office was carried off fatally wounded.

A band of rioters, later in iu the evening, attempted to remove a cannon from a public hall, but were scattered by the soldiery. Another baud, breaking into a pawnshop after pistols, were put to (light by the police. At midnight no serious fightiug was in progress, aud it was the impression iu tho uewspajier olHces that the outlook for the small hours was encouraging. As the governor bos ordered out the entire national guard of the state, we may hope that the riot is practically over. There are morals in it not ouly for Cincinnati but for nil other American citie9, east and west.

One is, that communities as well as individuals reap what they sow. Another that it is a good deal easier to start a mob than to stop it. The Middletown Herald follows up its presi dential candidate gossip with extracts from letters of eminent Connecticut democrats These are chiefly non-committal, and show that democratic sentiment is even less crystallized than that of the republican party. The Hon, James Gallagher says New Haven sentiment is for "the old ticket," but whether he means the Hancock or the Tilden ticket is uncertain, prob ably the latter. Ex-Governor English also favors the Tilden movement.

Mr. A. Burr, of this city, on the contrary, does not find a strong feeling iu favor of Mr. Tilden, for the reason that he declines to be a candidate, but Senator Pluukett, of New Haven, thinks the "wrong of 'iu must be righted," and with this opinion Mr. Samuel F.

Jones, of Hartford, agrees. Gen. Franklin considers Mr. Tilden out of tbe question, aud believes Hancock the best man men tioned, while Mr. Charles Durand, of Derby, speaking for the "thoughtful democrats," says that if Tilden would allow the use of his name that would end it.

Editor Osborne, of the New Haven Jtegiiter, says Tilden is not to be considered, aud mentions Senator Bayard as a good candidate on a revenue reform platform. There is no hope for success, he says, if r. Randall's views on the tariif are to prevail. Bowers, of New Haven, is for Tilden aud Reform," while Greau Ketidrick, of Waterbury, suggests ex Governor lugersoll, Judge Birdsall, of Westport, is' for Hancock, with Carlisle or Morrisou for second place, and he reiterates tbe charges, which he has heretofore so well sustained, that it was the treachery of the Tilden faction that defeated Hancock in 1SS0. The Hon.

David A. Wells is for tariff reform, civil service reform and Pendleton, and sagely addsr: Hat If the democratic party propose to continue war raxes in nine i peace; ro cotintenanue aim maintain a tariff policy that ha swept our commerce and out fUtf from the ocean; that has narrowed our markets, and so prevented the expansion of our industries, restr.et ttie opportunities ror laiinr anu reuiiee me watregor our laborers. If it proposes in tiie interest of certain silver-miue owners to lax the couui rv twentv-fnur millions per annual tn order to continue ttie coinage of an elghty-rlve cent dollar, v.nU li tho prople do not want or need: If It proposes to present to itself a division ot spoils as the highest incentive for suc cess; then in thlj case as the other, it is equally Immaterial what candidate shall be selected. For if the question Is to Do narrowed down to the simple one of whether the rasea shall be turned out." or "the f.ols piu in," tite iieople, iu my opinion, will decide for ttie rascals every time, on the irround that tl is possible to fi rm some opinion what the rascals will do, while In respect to the foots, it would be impossible to predicate any- iiiing. Matthew Arnold has arrived home and delivered his lecture on Emersou before tho Uoyal Institu tion of lrfndon.

Vitnily ttir says of it: "The lecture was reeled off In a yawning, lazy. Indolent fashion. It was only interesting because, from some kind of critical lnipude.ee, Mr. Arnold had had the had taste to deliver it at Boston to those who reverence the memory of the gentle New England philosopher-poet.

Interesting Note From the Exhibition. A gentleman from Willi mantic stated that at least two hundred will come from that place if excursion rates can be obtained. Those who desire to see fine paintings and the mass of other art treasures, when tbe rooms are less crowded, should visit them between 10 and 2 o'clock. Many ladies are in the habit of meeting during these hours, in a sort of morning reception. The sweet odor prevading tbe rooms is that of the new English perfume, "Jersey Lily," which is daily distributed with an atomizer.

An exquisitely painted portrait of Dr. C. A. Taft was hung in the front room of the second story on Saturday afternoon. Te carefully arranged and complete catalogue was entirely arranged by Dr.

and Mrs. George L. Parmele. The Connecticut Western road will sell excursion tickets to the exhibition on Wednesday from Millerton and way stations. The schedule, including admission, will be: Bloomfield, (50 cents; Tariffville, 70 cents; Sirnsbury, 75 cents; Collinsville, 65 cents; New Hartford, (1; Winsted, NorfoU, tl 40; Canaan, 1.75: Salisbury, f2; Lakevilie, Millerton, (2 20.

The edition of four thousand catalogues and supplements having been exhausted and tbe type distributed, tbe managers have been obliged, in order to supply the visitors during tbe exvia three days ot this week, to have another edition of fifteen hundred printed. Owing to the extra expense the price hereafter will be 25 cents, which is not deaV for a book of ninety four pages. The price of the first edition was made very low, tbe advertisemauts helping pay the cost. Certainly no one can object to this, as every visitor will desire one as a souvenir. THE FREE KINDERGARTEN.

First Annual Fleeting Interesting lie port of tbe Year's Work. The Hartford Free Kindergarten association was organized January 5th, 1383, and its first annual meeting was held at 3 p. m. on Saturday last at Seminary hall. A large congregation of ladies interested in the work was present.

Mrs. George Kellogg, vice-president, presided. The meeting was opened with devotional exercises, which were followed by the reports of tbe secretary, Mrs. Vlrgiuia T. Smith, and the treasurer, Mrs.

Seth Talcott, by a very Inter-estlng account of the way In which the Kindergarten is conducted by Miss Woodcock, the teacher, and by remarks from Mrs. Kellogg and tbe Hon. Henry Barnard of the advisory committee. The association has conducted a kindergarten, at the Morgan Street chapel, whore the rent and fuel has been given ry the ctty mission. It has also had a nursery school on Sheldon street.

The average attendance in the two schools has been forty-eight, the whole number of scholars has been sixty-nine. A larger number of pupils would have been received at the Morgan Street school had the accommodations heeiasutiielent. Many of lliechddren have not been absent once, and others only from illness. The parents report the children eager to come, and, as most of them do as they please, the attendance verities their statements. There has been at both schools a dailv lunch of oatmeal and milk: the milk having been given for tne purpose oy jirs.

uuam it. tone, at an expense ot The secretary's report was very interesting and graphic. After giving some history of the association and a statement of Its alms, and a general review of the purposes of the kindergarten, the report gives Illustrative- Instances of the children who receive Its benefits, of which one or two may iieie giveu as iouows: EXTRACTS ROM THS SECRETARY'S REPORT, Some of the best testimony regarding the Influence of this work is the appreciation shown by tbe mothers of its The children become missionaries of cleanliue's, order and love in their homes, and prove that a little child may lead many a nuuseiiom to a potter iite. Bide by side, in a rear teuement swarming with human beings, live two families, one of which in cludes Dine children. Home lime sinen we luhorerl wltbthe mothers to Induce tnem to send their youngest, cnuaren to Kindergarten.

Both mothers were lulemperate. We gained the consent of one, but the other refused, saying she wanted her cuiioien wtiere Blie could look after them. A Bort time since we aagiu visited the two families. The mother of the kindergarten children was bny at the wash-tub, aud she told us with true motherly delight of the origmness or ner cnuaren and ot tlielr pleasure tn tbe school. "They lease to go clean," she said, "and they proud to be neat that I works all ways to keep em so; now.if you 11 sit a minute longer I will show you the little cards that they's done theirselves." She was ont their lrocKs and aprons as she talked.

Drying tier nanus, sue tooa rrom a mantel cupocard a little box in wl ich were carefully deposited four little cards snarln.lv traced with brtirhr. colored silk and, we venture to say no rare embroidery was ever exmoiteu witn iore motneriy pnue and genuine satisfaction, and as the replaced them with anxious accuracy In the box she remarked that "next week they would have one done nrctlicr'n any of them." The downward tendency of this mother seems to have been ai rested by her new and never failiUK pride In their learning aud capability and by her rond desire to Keep ttiem neat and happy aud help them on. Vvhiie many of the children in our klndr-rirarten come from dismal homes som. of them have lov ing temperate parents and comfortable surround Idks. To these parents the school seems of in estimable value as they realize that the localities in wnicn tney are lorced to live arc reslly unfit places In which to tlielr children.

They therefore hail the kindergarten as a means of grace, realizmg that it is a place of safety and rood Influences and declaring that it is the one good thing that has come to them. In visiting tbe nomes anu ranting wiiu me moiners we gel in a nut shell the uniform feeling of the parents toward the kindergarten, which feeling is unconsciously betrayed iu such reciuils as tLe following: One mother said: "My little girl is not the only scholar in th's family that you have, for It's edu-catin' us all she is. She comes home and sings the songs and tells the stories, and the fattier never dot be tired of listening to he-. And the baby; well, now, he can just do them all as well as alamy." Another mother said: "My little girl loves very much her school, rihetiied last winter to hurry her whooping cough over, so she might sooner go to kindergarten sgiin. Now when the day rains and say.

'Metter sou stav at home than go and find you some more colds for she shut my lips tignt with both hands so I could no more say no, and then get quick ready and runs with herself away. Yes, she do so much like it. 1 wish bud mine other girl sent yen sh3 was not too old." 'i he report ends as follows: "Finally, viewed In evt-ry light, and from every standpoint, the free kindergarten seems at present a daily and vital aid to the many children destitute or home training and needing that element of the hignest teach-inir love. It commends Itself to the careful con sideration of Christian workers as a beneficent and truly necessary S7stem of child culture. It Is a phase of infant education without which we are poor indeed, but with whlcn we are rich in the means of restoring Feace on earth and good will to men.

There is great anxiety about General Gordon, which Is only (lightened by the conflicting rumors, one of which days he has been defeated in his attempt to escape but is tafe ia Khartoum, while another say he has surrendered and Is now in prison. There has been a formal exchange of treaties, whatever that may mean, between 1'eru and Chili, the minister of the two countries hare met and dined, and the Peruvian flag in Callao harbor bag been aaluted by a Chilian flag-ship. Apparently this means peace at last.

A California dispatch of Saturday assert ed that the Central Pacific railroad company had secured control of the Oregon Railway and Navigation company, which would be important news for the Northern Pacific if it were true. But the New York directors pronounce absurd. Wiggins, one of the Canadian weather humbugs, will find great comfort in the severe wind Ktorm of Saturday, which, while insignificant in comparison with his predictions, was still a very iesietnhle blow. Some idea of its severity may be formed when from the single port of New London come report of halt a dozen wrecks in that vicinity along the Sound, Burnum's nacre 1 white elephant has arrived at New York and an ex-consul to Siam, who has examined, prononnnes him as genuine as onv white elephant can be. Sir.

Barnuin is indignant at Mr. Forepaugh's atrocious conduct in importing an alleged white elephant for his rival show and pronounces that beast a barefaced fraud of the bare facedest kind. The white-elephant question is likely to furnish this summer some relief from the excitements of a Presidential contest.

Englund needs more such examples, aud it needs tl.em especially from men who are physically robust. Of tbo dead prince the average vounz Kuglisbman will say, "Poor fellow, his ill health prevented his being anything or doing anything. Til VISC1SSATI MOT. For some years past thingn huve been going to the bad in Cincinnati, nnd the virtuous, law ahi ling citizen of the, city have been too busy iiiukiiiir money to arrest the sinister movement. Ouo or two of the city newspa pers huvo from time to time ottered words of warning, but those have either fallen ipiito un heeded oil the public ear or awakened only I passing uueasiiiewH.

Incitpable nnd corrupt men have l'tii allowed to intrude themselves, by means of the party machincy, into roKponst ble public trusts: the polito force lias lieconie more aud more demoralized and inelH rlent, and the courts have too often seemed to lie run in the interest of the criminal rnther than of the community. Natuinlly crime has become more and more rampant and uuduoiutis, until there are or were a few horn's ago over twenty murderers in the Cincinnati jail, while other murderers lire at large, some acquitted by stupid or venal juries, otheis let go, by some hi ens piH'iis of thi" law, on bail. Itwuswitn mnltcrs in (his condition that young Horner as put on trial for the killing of his employer. The murder in this case was deliberate planned in cold blood. Horner and nn accomplice knew that their victim had a roll of lull in his pocket.

Watching their chance, they butchered him, and took the money. Ths proof against them was overwhelming; indeed, Kerner ri'ated)y confessed his guilt. Then live of the leaders of the Cincinnati criminal bar took charge of the defense. They spent a fortnight in getting a jury to their mind. The government proved its case beyond a shadow of a doubt, nnd this intelligent jury brought in a verdict of manslaughter! The judge denounced this (biding from the bench as an outrage, but all he could do was to impose the maximum sentence twenty veats in state prison.

The jurymen drew their money and slunk away pursued by the angry menaces of the specta tors. This jrdict was the last straw of the proverb. The city newspaper commented upon it in terms of natural but perhaps injudicious severity. The people of Cincinnati," said the Commercial tatrtte, "are abundantly warned that the law furnishes no protection to life. Trials of murderers aro made mockeries of law and 1st ice either by the incompetence or the criminal sympathies of juries, or by tho on tangleiiicnU of senseless technicalities of al leged law, or by the quibbles of tho supreme court, which treats a verdict of guilty of niur- (der as a suspietoiu ease, and one to be set aside if even the most immaterial technical error can bo found.

The county jail it a hotel for murderers." The leading citizens took counsel together. A call wa.i issued for an indignation meeting at the. great Music hall Friday evening. Mr. Murut Ilalstead says no itoubt truthfully that this meeting was intended by its' callers "to preveut rather than to promote violence." But the lending citizens either underrated the popu lar excitement or overrated their ability to control it while-they were making their siieeehes to the dense crowd that jammed the hall from platform to outer doors, ominous outcries were heard and coits of rope were sug gestively displayed.

As the meeting adjourned a voice is said to have shouted, "To the jail! Tho crowd out, ripe for riot. When the corner of tho street leading to the jail was reached, the senile or another voieo gave the order. "File left!" and the riot was under way.

The outer door was soon broken through, but the sheriff and a small squad of men drove tho foremost rioters back. Another party of them, however, had meanwhile climbed through a second story window, and he and his little force had to retreat behind the grated iron door of the in ner jail. Kevolver in hand, he announced that anyone passsinj this door was a dead insu.

The rioters hesitated a moment. Then the voitfo of thtir black leader iang out, a piece of scantling was pressed into service as a batterinj-ram, the bolts gave way, nu 1 the aud his followers rushed forward.

Exactly how many were killed and wounded in this first night's fighting is not yet known very likely, as far aa the wounded are concerned, never will be known. On Saturday Sheriff Hawkins barricaded the streets leading to the jail, established dead lines, telegraphed the adjutant general for troops from the interior of the state, called out the surviving veterans of hig own regiment of volunteers, stationed the military and police at his command in and around, the building, and then awaited the evening.
