Mr. BENNETT


The Herald always sells better in this city
than any of the New York papers but when
there is anything in it about New Haven,
you have no idea what rush there is for Downs
news office. Talk about hot cakes, they don't be.
gin; just few words in the IeraM about the Stu
dents, and large share of the surpus funds''
OF" floating capital' of Yale College, can be found
in MchaePs pocket.


Speaking of Mike, he is "one of the boys:" he
cant be beat; he has lungs strong enough to make
sbig wages" blowing an old fashioned windmill :
the Corporation talk of hiring him to give the alarm
in cases OF fire, as 1t would be much cheaper, and
save the wear and tear Of bell ropes he is 10 be

city by subscription, except going to church.


There was great gathering Of Wings and Locos
at Woodbury. on the 18th; should think there must
gagged their 'bggest guns for the occasion, but the
Locos got little the best of the day. They had
Ex-Gov. Cleaveland, the Hon Mr.. Cailin, and other
prominent men. The way Gov Cleaveland blowed

coon family the enthusiasm of the Democratic
young ladies, of Woodbury. exceeded any thing |
ever saw; they even tore up their petticoats to
make wadding for the cannons.


Mr. VIM. E. Robinson, Of this city, addressed
the Wings in his usual eloquent manner; the other
Whg speeches were rather Of the small beer order
Everything passed off as harmonious as could be
expected; both parties adjourned in good season
leaving the town in good order after eating all thai
could be found in the town that was catabe, and
drinking all the liquor in Mr.: Smiths Hotel.
HThe day passed off very quietly in this city We
had short visit from The New York Fusileers
they arrived here Wednesday evening; were re.
ceiyed by the Crews, Capt. FoIIes, the Guards Ma
jor Prescott, and EngineC Co., No. 3, Foreman, Mr.
Chatterton. The Fusileers are, without doubt, a
crack company, all fine looking fellows /; bul
they can't begin to drill with our crack com.
Panies. They left this noon for New Yo:k, in the
steamer Globe, after making us visit that was
every way, satisfactory to themselves, and to the
Greys, and citizens in general.


There is nothing else Of any Importance to write
about Should any thing occur worth mentioning,
will inform you Immediately, if not sooner.
Yours, &c. B. 3. G. S.
