Now Your, ‘July 24, 1847. l NOR§I;\I. ScnooLs.-—At the late session of]
. The reign of summer has commenced. Bu- , the Legislature of this State, a resolution was
siness is for :1 time suspended. The temple of, passed, providing that a Committee of one from '
Mammon is deserted by most of its worshipers, I each County be appointed by his Excellency the
and the few who rcma_in exhibit but little fer- Governor to make due examination and to report
-vency in their devotions. The money makers ' to the next Legislature a definite plan for the
have become money spenders. A sudden f'ond- I support, location, and internal arrangement of.
ness for the country has seized hold of them,
and they are seeking (a vain search I fear it will
prove) for some cool spot wherein they may re-
cruit their minds and bodies exhausted by the
never-ceasing care, labor and turmoil of city life.
“Mun immurcd in cities still retains
I-lis unborn, tmextingui.-liable thirst
Of’ rural scenes ”
Ilis desire for rural cnjoyments will certainly
not be diminished if he is confined to a heated
and-‘filthy city, when the thermometer ranges
above 90 Farenheit for days _in succession. Even
the':‘~passiou»-for money-making cannot with-
st:-Ind-' this excessive heat. It is too hot ‘to
worker think.
i'I‘lu.i're is no news,‘ foreign or domestic, of par-
ticular interest. There have indeed been ru-
mors flonting about, but little credited, that Mex-
ico has rejected our overtures of peace. The
public exhibit great. indifference to all reports
from the seat of war.- No intelligence from that
quarter whether it be favorable or adverse, can
create surprise. Gen Scott, at the last dates
was at Puebla awaiting reinforcements, and he
has undoubtedly before this taken up his line of
march towards the city of Mexico. Perhaps
the «stars and stripes are now “floating t.riumph-
antly over the Halls of the Montezumas.”—
VVell, what -next? \Vill the capture of the
city of jMcxico put an end to the war? This
question; ca n be more satisfactorily answered at
some future time t.han now.
The “'C}:ineso Junk” is exciting as much cu-
_ riosity as Tom Thumb and President Polk did
when t.hey were respectively exhibited in this
city. The junk is a queer specimen of naval
architecture. Seine say that she was built in
the United States, but it seems to me that. Yan- ,
kee ingenuity could hardly “get up" such a ves-
But it would be easier to manufacture the
vessel thanitho crew. They are certainly no
product of American soil. The most wonderful
thing connected with the junk, is that she is
owned by Englishmen. It is said that even
Barnum has nothing to do with her. This is
certainly the first. attempt made to humbng the
people for some years past, in which he has not
had a hand. Perhaps he has made money
e each in thisline of business, and is willing to,
retire in favor of others.

sion, in reference to holding two “schools for
teachers" in each County in the State; by re-
quest of the Superintendent of Common Schools,
they have been addressed, to inquire whether it
would be agreeable to our citizens, to have a
school in our town; and, whether a house would
be furnished for holding the meetings; and,
whether our citizens would furnish board for
the teachers. The State will pay all the ex-I
pcnse of instruct ion.
The schools will be held between the middle
of Sept. and the first of Nov. 1847. Public no-
tice will be given for the time of holding the
lnoctings. The school to continue one week,
or, from Monday 2 o’clock, P. M. till Saturday
noon. Probably about. 80 teachers would be
present. “Individuals,” we are informed, “in
some towns have proposed to receive teachers
free of charge into their families,” to make their
expenses light as possible and induce them to ‘
attend. ~’
The School Visitors have returned an an-E
swor to the inquiry, that they are in favor ofi
holding such a “school for teachers” in thisl
town, and that a house will be furnished for‘
holding the meetings, but they could not. pledge
themselves that gratuitous board would be fnr- ‘
nished the teachers without further information
relative to the disposition of our citizens on the
subject. Several individuals have already very
kindly ofl'ot'(-d to furnish gratuitous boa rd for-i
teachers, and we should consider it very ktnd inl
all o'hcrs ofonrcitizens who may feel disposedto
fu1n':sh gratuitous boa rd for
‘formation to ciiher of the School Visitors at:
their earliest convenience. It is thought. that."
the interest whichsuch a convention of teachers!
will awaken upon the subject of popular educa-

for the trouble and expense.

some degree of, perhaps. deserved severity for its

been better informed before giving vent to its
dissatisfaction, it might have saved itself from so

plote, ofseveral lnuidrerls of the ancient. fami-
flies of this town, and of those who originalcdl _
:}m;-Q, and who were among the founders of the ' walk hath hunted and allowed six months from
towns of \Vilton, Ridgefield, Darien, New Ca-
naan, and Danbury.
It is proposed to publish the above in a duo-
decimo volume, containing two hundred pages
and upwards, in a substantial and handsome
form, such as the present families may be wil-
ling to hand down to their children; ar.d to put
it to press the motnent. that the snpscription list.
shall warrant the expense.
It is obvious that the expense must. be consid-
It; cannot be published
without a very general and liberal subscription.
1. It is supposed, however, that nearly all
e descendants ofthe early settlers of Norwalk
ill wish to possess the work.
:2. That, as the work will never be printed
again, and as the present edition will be limited
to the probable sale, many will desire to secure
several copies for their children.
3. That many may desim to secure copies
for their distant. friends.
4. That. the inhabitants of Norwalk will gen-
orally wish to patronize the work, as one of
f h
w
5. That others may wish to possess such a
full illustration of the planting and progr-'ss of-
an ancient. Ne\v.Engl:-md town.
The price of the volume to Subscribers w.ll be
ONE DOLLAR. '
The above proposals were circulated exteri-
sively among the inhabitants of Norwalk, some
months since ; but with so little encouragement
that the compiler relinquished the idea of pub-
lishing the work. Having been informed that
there is, notwithstanding, a very general and
strong desire that the work should be published ;
and believing that its materials possess too much
interest to the numerous descendants of the
early settlers of Nor\valk, to allow them wil-
lingly to lose an opportunity to possess them;
the compiler is induced to bring the subject be-
fore this community once more, he does not
intend to circulate subscriptions any more, but
invites those who wish for the work to leave
their names, in the course of one or two weeks,
at the store of J.-\S. l\IALLonv & Co., or of
C. E. Dxsnnow, and if a sufficient number of
copies shall be wanted to warrant the expense,
the work will be put to press immediately.
As it is desirable that the work should. be as
complete as possible, the compiler will be much
obliged if every subscriber will send him, imme-
vt-iately, free of expense, :1 copy of all such fa m-
ily records of the ‘inhabitants of Norwalk be-
tween the years 1651- and 1800, as may be in
his possession, particularly, a large nu mber
of families, of the last and of the present gen-
eration were put on record near theclose of the
last century ; and not having been filled up, are
yet: incomplete. The compiler respectfully in-
vites each of the families interested, to furnish
him with the means of rendering these family
records complete. «. ALL.
