Information now comes from a trustworthy source that he died a few day ago in Minneapolis, in which place he had taken refuge. His disease was consumption. This news will end all the anxietv of his creditors. Ilia body will probal.lv be brought eajt for burial. of the revenue, rigid economy in it expenditure, the development of the national resources, scrupulous regard for the national credit, and the operation of natural laws, aided by such legislation as the actual condition of the country may at any time permit and require.

By this road we ahall certcinly reach specie it mav not be this day or the next. If there is engineers of the railroad ompany, at which the whole subject of the ro-t was discussed, map and surveys examined and the engineer's estimate carefully gone over with, to arrive as nearly aa possible at the coat of the road, in order to ascertain what amouut it is uecesary for New Haven to contribute to secure the building of the same. They having found that the cost of the road would be 3,100,000, invited a proposition from its officers corresponding with those figures, and received the following: "Let New Haven vote (.000,000 In bonds, 100.000 of which to be nscd between New Haven and Middletown, and tlSO.OOO te be used on the Connectcut, River bridge.the remaining $350,000 to be applied towards the construction of the road between Portland and Willimant'c no bonds, to be advanced until the company has expended $100,000 between New Haven and Middletown. On the portion of the road east of Ibe river the company to expend two dollar to one of bonds advanced." The committee favored this proposition, and recommended that it be (uhniilled to a town meeting, with a proviso that no bonds be ad-vanced until the amount of has been actually subscribed In stock or the bonds of the several towns along the line of the road, and that the same 1 available for the construction of the road, the bonds to be advanced no faster tban is called for by the foregulng proposition. A form of vote, to be presented to a town meeting, was submitted by the committee, which with the report of the committee was accepted.

Governor Englhb said that the terms presented to the meeting were the committee's tetrma, after rejecting every proposition presented by the company, and that it went to the full extent which they weie willing to recommend the citizens to adopt. He was satisfied no belter terms could be made which would secure the construction of the road. The directors of the road stated that with this aid and that expected from oilier towns, tho road could be completed in eightescn months. Governor Euglish said he should give the project hi hearty support and hia associate would do the same. By way of further in formation, the Governor gave the following list of town and the amount that each would be asked to contribute aa authorized by the legislature, being five per cent, on the grand list: Middlefield 27 000 00 240,000 00 100,000 00 Chatham 41,000 00 Marlboro 1.1.

After this was read tha nomination was made unanimous, and Immediately after a resolution passed "pledging resistance to negro suffrage." It is telegraphed hence that "disaffected Republicans" will support him and "elect him triumphantly." Another gentleman from Franklin, McoUngsley.will have something to say about that. Hugh J. Reynolds, a young and Intelligent Irishman of New Haven, writes a long and lorc-ible letter to the Palladium, announcing his intention to ally himself with the Republican party when he shall become a voter between now and thtf day of ehction. His first vote is to be cast then, and be gives the reasons why be shall ignore the sham Democracy. He shows up the bjpocrisy of the Democratic leaders in assuming a pecial r.

gard for Irishmen to catch their votes, aud points out the caBes of Colonel Htaley and Colonel Cahlll in New Haven, where the "ring" ignored them when there was an opportunity to reduce tj practice-some of the professions of the jff)iter clique. The letter will have influence among intelligent Iiithmen, who have already growu tired ot the bamboozling tricks of Democracy. The L'ryiter sajn in reply to the Cochant "It does not follow that in advocating "equal and exact justice to all men," aud equal protection under the laws, that negroes must be given the privilege of the ballot aud the right to hold office! There was no such thought in the mind of Mr Jefferson or the men who framed the Constitution. It was to hs a white man's government." Nonsense. This talk ot a white man's government is tulucly a modern Idea born out cf the prejudice cf sham democracy.

In Jeffersou's time equal and exact justice gave the colored man the ballot in several states. The men who framed the Constitution subscribed to nutuing which belied their own declarations, and if living to-day would scout the heresies which form the staple arguments of Democratic HARTFORD fcDNESDAY, MARCH 3, 1809.

litcbtleld County- HENRY A. BOTSFORD of Litcbneld. Four state have already ratified the fifteenth constitutional amendment. Kansas took the lead on Saturday, and was followed on Monday by Louisiana, Missouri and Nevada. Now for the rest.

As every one expected, the Republican Caucus of tiie House has put Mr. Blaine in nomination i jr the Speakership. It Is an excellent selection, and Mr. Colfax must be pleased at the certainty of having Buch a worthy successor in the chair which be himself has so long and ably filled. The other nominations of the Caucus will be found in another column.

On Mondtiy evening Mr. Gladstone introduced the bill for the disestablishment of the Irish Church. A synopsis of his sucech will be found In our telegraphic columns. Mr. Gladstone and his associates have been forced fo undertake a task as delicate as it is arduous.

From the bare skeleton of their policy which the cable gives should tUiuK they had approached it in the spirit of a broad and far-seeing statesmanship which anzurs well for their success. Senator Cole, of California, should brush np a Htt'e, in Washington's Farewell Address. He has actually asked the Senate to plunge the country into that deep diplomatic quagmire known as Ibe Eastern Question, utterly oblivious of the fact that the governments at present floundering in it are supremely anxious to get safely out. He wants the Conscript Fathers of the republic to iustruct the President to om-uiunicate to the Great Powers of Europe the grave concern with which the United States would regard any interference on the part of those Powers favoring the perpetuation of the Turkish supremacy in the islands of Greece." Now we have no more regard for the Turks, nor any more doutt that the Christian islanders have been shamefully treated, than the Senator from California, but we are quite nnable to see how these admitted facts make it obligatory upon this nation to depart from its traditional policy, irritate Europe by a palpably rteaninnless threat, expose itself to the humiliation of a deserved snub, aud create a precedent to be qaotedagainst us at the first convenient opportunity. FAC1S woit ni Kitomsu.

About afortuicht ago the Joint Committee on Ordnance sett in a report to Congress, upon which that body will do well to bestow their best attention at the earliest possible day. If the Committee are right, a very important department of our military establishment is in a disgraceful aud dangerous condition of inefficiency, and lurire sums of the public money have been fjolishiy tijuaadeied. If they are mistaken, the officers of this department ought not to be left a day longer tban is absolutely necessary under such unjust and damaging imputations. The gist of the report is that all our new guns of large caliber are comparatively worthless. In his report of the assault on Fort Fisher, Admiral Porter mentions the fact that every Parrvtt gun in fltet burst.

Yet this assault, as the Committee remind us, was "the only occasion duripg the war when rilled euus of large caliber were fired rapidly and continuously for a great number of rounds." The larg; guns gave no more favorable account of themselves at Morris Islaud. The greatest number of them ever mounted there at any one time was twenty-two, jet General Gillmore's testimony is on recoid that the total number which burst during the siege was no less than fifty. Even this is not the worst. There are at present two Bureaus lu the Ordnance Department, one for the Army, the other for the Navy. Each of thtse Bureaus tets, buys, mounts and bursts guns for itself.

The result is that the calibeis, models, chambers and ammunition of the Navy guns are entirely unlike those in in the Army. There is not the slightest reason why this should be so, and there ate very patent and weighty reasons why it should not. As the Committee suggest, "offensive operations on the part of a joint expedition might be brought to an end by the want of projectiles for the land forces, while the ships of the Navy might have a surplus of the very articles required, but which could not be used by tUe laid forces." For this unsatisfactory condition of thirgs, the Committee hold the Ordnance Department directly responsible. They assert In plain language that the ofhceisof this Department "have not yet determined upon even the fundamental principles of their art," and besides are opinionated, fond of red tape, disposed to frown down ionovatiug inven tors, and not above the suspicion of favoritism. Also, the tests instituted by the Department they describe as costly (-hares, determining nothing and incapable oi determiulng anything.

"Excessive charges," they say, "have been used, aud a great number of rounds fired, bat no attempt has been made to copy upon the proving ground the conditions existing in battle." Holdicg this low opinion of the Department and its operations, the Committee do not hesitate to advise Congress to abolish it, and turn over its work to a board of officers to be detailed fcr this duty from the artillery. Such aboard they think weuld cost a great deal less, and do a great deal-more. They also recommend that no more heavy guns be bouuht at present; that inventors be more liberally treated; that no officer in cither branch ol the service be hereafter allowed to takeout a patcut for any invention in the ine ot his profession, or to have an interest in such a pateut: and that a new series of experiments be at occe ordered "for the purpose of ascertaining the real cause of the bursting ol heavy guns, and of determining upon some method of fabrication that will secure uniform endurance." We do not pretend to pass upon the justice of tie charges brought by the Committe against the officers of the Ordnance Department. Bnt wherever the blame is finallv to fall, this report makes two things tolerably plain. The first is that Uncle Sam has spent a very pretty sure of money upon fancy artillery, which he might better have kept in his pocket.

The second is, that what with guns which are, sure to burst, and granite coast defences whic are equally sure to tumble down under the first hot cannonade, we are not quite 8 well prepared for invasion as we have fondly supposed ourselves to be. It is fortnnate, nnder the circumstances," that the "bloated despotisms" are in pretty much the "same condition. The Committee assu-w us that no siugle heavy euu yet made in Europe can be pronounced a success. LIGHT WANTED. The Tin.et says Let us have coin, the constitutional currency, for all classes as the Constitution intended." By all means.

Coin, or paper equil in purchasing value to coin, what we ail want at the earliest possible day. That is, all except the ruauy Democratic and the few Republican politicians who have been trying to persuade the country that an irredeemable paper currency will do quite as well. As the Timet goes on, however, to blame the "Radical Con gress1 for the existence the present time of two currencies, will it please explain, for the benefit of business men who are profoundly in AdvertlMemeut 'I'o-Day.

Wood' Building Destroyed. In a portion of the regular edition of the Coubabt yesterday morning, the destruction by fire of Wood' building, so-called. In rear of the post-office, was announced. The alarm was given at about 5 o'clock, but the fire bell bad a tantram and located the fire in the vicinity ot several boxes, though all are not far from the State House Square, so that the firemen readily discovered where their services were needed. The box first reached was No.

24, comer of Main and Pearl street, bnt the person pulling the slide waa too vigorous in his movements tud broke off a pin which was fastened in the slot as a regulator, and this in part caused confusion in the alarm; and at about, the same time box 23, Orner of State and Market streets was started, making altogether bad work with the striking appralns in the alarm tower. Alert Hose Com pany got to the lire first, and fastened hose on the hydrant, corner of Main and Grove streets, but it was frozen and soon hurst, causing a delay of at least half an hour before a stream was started. It became necessary to eo to the Mul berry street hydrant, and that produced a scarcity of hose, and by the time cteamera were ready to work, the fire had got anch headway that it was impossible to do more than to contine it to the Wood building, which was done, a considerable portioueif the north aud west walls being save 1, together with partition walla. The fire started unquestionably in Geo. Hi board's spectacle manufactory, where workmen were engaged until about 4 o'clock, au open forge being kept burning all night, and when in use with a blower threw sparks iu all directions.

As It stood b' fore the lire it must have been worth about tai.OOO or The fouBdutiou walls being preserved, with some other portions of the structure, the loss, estimating the cost ol rebuilding, will probably be between $15,000 and ft ,000. Thre is an tuanrauce of 7.5'W-5,0(iO in the Home of New York, and in the Sccaily of New York.

Nathan fienham, who occupied lower rooms for the manufacture ol iron machinery, meets with only a partial loss, as most of the machines can be repaired at a small cost, iie will lose, however, at least :i.0o0.

If not more, and hi no insurance, his policies having expired a few days go without renewal.

TUB MEETING LAST KIGFJT. The Pearl street church was solidly filled last evening by a body of earnest men and women from all parts of our state, to attend the meeting of the State Sabbath School Convention, The number outran, as will be seen in an appeal elsewhere, all the expectations of the loeal commit tee, and all signs now are in favor of a very interesting series of meetings. By some unwonted tronble in the gas metre, the meeting did not commence till about eight, when the Rev. Dr. Scndder was appointed temporary chairman.

Prayer was then offered by the Rev. Mr. Brown. After the singing of a hymn, the Rev. Dr.

Bush-nell preached an able aud characteristic sermon, replete with rich and valuable suggestions. It was entirely in sympathy with the Sunday school work, and developed witli great force the same views which were presented in an editorial in the Cocrant a few weeks ago. respecting the work of Christianity in childhood. The Doctor was listened to with the closest attention. The chairman of local arrangements, the Rev.

Mr. Gage, -then made some statements respecting the emliarrassmeuta of the committee in providing accommodation for all, after which a hymn was sung and the benediction was pronounced by the Rev. Dr. Crane. The meetirg is undenominational In its character.

Its sessions will be held in the Pearl street church on account of the convenience of he place, but the convention is not distinctly Congregational. The session to day will begin at nine. The first half hour will be devoted to prayer and conference. The remainder of the morning will be devoted to the general business of the convention. The sessions of the afternoon and evening will be, beyond all question, interesting to our own citizens who are at all engaged in Sabbath school work.

Tbe Sub bat li school Convention. APPEAL TO OUR CITIZENS. The local committee of arrangement are compelled to make a pressing appeal to the cltizena of Hartford, to open their homes to the members ol the Sabbath school convention now in session in this city. The number who have applied for entertainment far outruns all the capacities of accommodation as vet placed at our disposal. More than a hundred were sent to tbe hotels last nibt at their own charges.

Will not every family that Has any interest in Sabbath schools strain point, if need be, and try to find accommodation for one, two or more, or to become responsible for them at the hotels? Let these responses be lelt at the Pearl street church this very morning! Ihere are some fix hundred persons wbo have applied for accommodations, and our citizens only need to see what and how pressing our wants are, to come to our relief V. L. Gaob, Chairman of Committee. The Air Lini Kailboao. The committee appointed by the citizens of New Haven, Nov.

3utb, 1808, to confer with the New Haven, Middletown and Wiliimactic railroad company, for the purpose of seeing if some possible plan eould not be devised to construct said road, reported at a meeting at the Merchants Exchange, New Haven, on Monday evening, through Gov, ernor English, it chairman. The committee bad had several meetings with a similar committee lrom Mlddletowa with the flic era and any better and qnicker way of getting there, let the Times point it out. But we frankly confess we are puzzled to sec how the repudiation of engagements into which the nation has voluntarily entered, tha defrauding of the people who have lent the nation money, the consequent ruin ol tha national credit, would bring ua a day nearer to the desired goal. Tet in this article from which we have already quoted, one of the counts of the indictment against tho" "Radical Con gress" is that the interest on the bonds is paid in coin. How would the Time have this Inter est paid And what is its plan for instantly getting rid of the paper currency "ON XII 14 TOAKCII TO 'I la Ii Mr.

L. Stebbins of this city has just published the largest and best engraving Illustrative of war scenes that has been issued. It Is not a battle-picture, full of the improbable situations and unreal, Imaginary hand-to-band fighting scenes that are too often crowded into pictures illustrative of celebrated battles, butis a remarkably life-like portray ll of some of the scenes which occurred during Sherman's grand march to the sea" that glorious campaign which broke tha back -bone of rebellion, showed the weakness of the secession cause, and made it, followed np as it was by the victories of Grant before Richmond, really a "lost cause." The picture, while it shows, very fiith-fully, the peculiar features of that memomble campaign, correctly illustrates many of the experiences of the gallant raiders on such incursions into the enemy's countiy as were made by the bold riders of Kilpatrlck and Wilson In their celebrated raids in Virginia, and by Grierson when he swung loose from the main army In Tennessee, aud swept ihrongb the whole state of Mississippi, bringing up at Baton Rouge, La. Such blows as these were among the hardest the rebels received during the war. Railroad and telegraph communications were severed, bridges were burned, and transportation of troops and supplies delayed, and armies thus crippled.

Mr. Stebbins has done well to secure the services ot arlista capable of faithlully illustrating this peculiar feature of the war; and with it another feature, that of the victims of slavery, seeing their salvation from oppression iu the march of the armies under tho stars and stripes, and flocking to the shelter of the flag from every plantation of tha South. It shows victory and emancipation at once. The design is by the celebrated artist F. O.

C. Darley, and the engraving by A. H. Ritchie, which is sufficient to assure all familiar ith the productions of these gentlemen that the work is as well done as it couid be by any laborer in these branches of art. The engraving is very large, the printed plate bciug forty inches by twenty-live.

Iu the foreground a working party of soldiers are tearing up a railroad track, assisted by contrabands in destroying the rails, aud depots anc trains are burning at a little distance, and in the back tuouud are foraging parties and "bummers," burning bridges, skirmishing with the enemy, etc. The faces uf the soldiers and of the "uncles." "aunties" and "piccaninnies" that are seekins their protection are excellent, and the expression on the different faces just such as the experiences of each would be likely to give iu short, perfectly natural and lifelike. Soldiers who see the picture recognise its general trutlifulaess, and commend it highly. As will be seen by an advertisement in another column, it is highly com-meuded by General Shermau himseif, General S2hoCeld, secretary of war, and many ethers. It is a great work of art, and a most admirable historic picture, and we are glad that tha credit of issuing it is due to a llarttord publisher.

The publisher's advertisement to-day gives full particulars. Canvassers ill commence the sale of the picture in this city, by subsciiption, imme diately. ivi K.tai NOTES. A deliciously romantic story comes to us from Wisconsin. It is all about a penniless young man who lately married a young woman.

Wishing to treat her to a bridal tour, and not being uncble to incur any unusual expense, this galianl young fellow fitted up an old bandsled as comfortably as he could, and placing Madame on it, dragged her manfully for a week from one town to another. The loe-al newspaper repoita that the young couple have since started for Minnesota, with the intention of settling on a homestead. If when they get ready to revisit Wisconsin they are not Bbundaully able to "travel first-cIsbs," then we do not possess the Yankee gift of guessing. At tha dinner which the New York Germans gave to Senator Scburz the other day, he made a very hnppy little speech. Among other things he said that when he first came to this country, be found the German clement in the population possissing very little or no weight in politics, for the reason, as it seemed to him, that the Germans voted blindly at the dictation of partylead ers.

The auti-slaveiy movement set them very generally to thinking for themselves, and from that lime, they have made themselves felt in the discussion and decision of political questions. He added, that while he did ne go iuto the Sec-ate as a German but as an American, he should try there as elsewhere to do honor to the German name. The "lost canse" is now lost indeed. Mr. R.

B. Rhett, the last of the South Carolina Romans, gives it up. The Charleston Aftrcuiij is no more. In Mr. Rhett's eloquent words, it has been "choked in the tangled and bloody strands of a deceitful, depotis the "voice which for fifty years Las mingled in the counsels of the imperilled South is hushed and the proprietor of the voice in question "takes his place among her itbe South's) ruined children." Thus Rhett.

The plain English of the matter is that the Mercury has not paid expenses for some time back, and its publisher; like a sensible man, has concluded not to sink any more of his money in trying to keep his paper afloat. As it is doubtful whether any single journal ever was directly responsible for so much mischief and misery, its demise is not a subject for the apghtcst regret. The New York Time rather tirtly rebukes General Slocum for ts-erting in a public lecture that the newspapers did a great deal of mischief during the war by indiscreet publications. To this grave indictmeLt the Timn replies ai follows Frequently during the war, news that seemed to be prematurely given out was puoasneo oy the express permission or desire of the cnief com manding Ulcer. Great advantage was often gained by ttieee announcements.

We might, tor e-xaroole. mention a single case which made great deal of noise at tne time. We refer to the announcement, which was made in the Time ot the of November, lsoi, of the intended "great march" of General Sherman f.om Atlanta through Georgia and the Gaiolinas to Virginia It lias not heretofore been known that that "pre mature publication" was made under the express permission ana wnii eue urn nuunicugc eral L. S. Graut: aud it is a fact thai the "pre mature announcement" subserved the purpose for which it was made.

Mr. Reverdy Johnson is nothing if not indis crcet. It is a pet theory of his that the worst use you can put a btg to is to keep a cat in it and he fearlessly practices what he preaches. The other daw he had a friendly chat with Lord John Russell about the A labmna business. He now proclaims upon the housetops that the noble earl said to him "It was ali along of English red tape.

Of course they knew it was ail wrong, and must be stopped but there was the slow and orderly way of doing it and what with one delay and another, the escaped." He asked why, iu that case, the AUiOama was not detained at the firstnglish port she touched, and Lord John replied, "Oh, that's easy enough to say; but the officials were always in the same difficulty." There is grave reason to fear that the prim little English statesman gave way to his angry passions wen he first saw his unguarded words in print. Their publication sadly weakens the force of sundry elaborate arguments which figure in the "Diplomatic Correspondence." Some days ago we mentioned the fact that a young Roman Catholic woman had embraced Judaism at Chicago, and immediately thereafter married one of her new-found brethren. This affair seems to have excited profound disgust in the office of the Jcvish Mcfsttiger. The editor remarks We write more in sorrow than in anger, bnt duty overpowers every other consideration, and we cannot find language strong enough to mark our disapprobation of the act which turns the svnagogae into a public exhibition opening the ark, which contains nothing but holiness, to place a female before so tuat sue may express her conviction ot her conversion, and giving evidence, by marrying in the synagogue on the same day. He adds that the sentiment tW the great body of Jews is -emphatically against proselytism that where one person becomes a Jew from conscientious conviction "at least one hundred are made Jews for some marriage speculation and that in all eases the ceremony of receiving a con vert Bhould be performed in private.
