The Patriot dc Democrat has been well known
as a staunch Whig paper, ranking in taste. en-
terprise and general interest,jwiih the very best
journals of the state. having a goodly circula-
lation in this neigliborho:id.. The Eagle has
been rather an amphibious affair, “ neither fish,

The following item ofintelligence. will be

obi‘ New’ Canaan friends. They are indebted
for this account oftheir town legislation. and its
operations. to the Olive Leaf and New York

as original. It furnishes a pretty striking illus-
tration ofthe truth of the common saying,"‘lltal
a story loses nothing by traveling."
'I‘aounr.ir. IN C0!\'N.—Il will be remembered
by our reatlers. that at .the annual Tow Meeting
in New Canaan, the Town authorities were iri-
structed by a vote of the people. to grant no li-
cences.but to employ an agent to do the rum-
’ selling in that town. The agent was appoititcd.
a supply of rum furnished. and" the books open-
ed in which to record the names of purchasers,
and the atnounts purchased. The business went
on smoothly enough for a short time, but these
books were trumpet-tougued: and those who
tnost frequently patronized the establishment,
became uneasy at the publicity given totheir
transactions. The grievance became ititolera-
ble; and a ‘special town meeting was called to
remedy the mischief. At this meetins, all the
proceedings ofthe annual meeting, so far as they
related to the license question. were repealed.
and a vote was passed. allowing any inhabitant
‘of the town to trafiic in rum,who would pay ten
dollars for the privilege. '

'1‘O THE INHABITANTS OF FAIR-T
FIELD COUNTY.
As the Proprietors ofthe steamboat NAPO-
r.tcoN have withdrawn their boat from the Nor-
walk route. it is necessary that I should make
known to the public the cause _that induced them
to take this step. In the first place, they have
becotne satisfied from the last week's experience
they have started’ their boat too early in the
season. the roads being in such a wretched con-
dition entirely cuts ofi all comnitinication with
the back country. Secondly the last trip has
proved to them that their boat has not sufficient
speed to ‘meet. the wantsofthe comrntitiity. the
Steamboat Fairfield received every passenger
from the landings after leaving Norwalk. land-
, ing 120 in New-York. the Napoleon 28-this
must shew to the mind ofevery reflecting man.
that it is necessary in order to gain our object
that we should alter our course of action.
4 I shall therefore. with the assistance of my
friends. make arrangements to have a Boat
ready by the-15th ot'April. ofsufficient speed to
ensure her success—and.Gentlemen.for the kind
feelings which you have evinced toward me,
you have my thanks. and Itrust that I shall be
able to convince you that nothing but a full de-
termination to carry our arrangements to a suc-
~ cessful -termination would have induced me to

through the instrtimeiitality of Mr. Barnard.

be. would render essential aid.
