The Fair of Kent Society was a decided
success, just as we predicted it would be. The
receipts reached nearly or quite $500, as we
«learn; The Ladies are deserving of much
credit for their successful endeavors.
'ThevRepublican gathering under the Tent
on Thursday, will be an occasion long to be
{emembered by the good people of Wilton.
A'special train went up and took 125 from
’Norwalk, including 30 of our Wide Awakes,
with capes and torches, under the command
Of , (Capt. Henry M. Stanton; these were
joined'at the Wilton depot by 28 more in full
regaliavfrom the Wilton Wide Awake Club,
' Capt. John Comstock, and headed by the
Ridgeficdd Band, the entire concourse then
marched from the cars down Main-st. to the
Tent. Such a scene of enthusiasm was nev-
er witnessed before in old Wilton, and one of
her “original democrats” assures us that “he
will give it up, and concede the election of
,Honest Abe,'if we’ll cease to torment them
any more.” Well, ll was cruel to pile on the
patriotism quite so strong, and in Wilton too,
but thepeople are aroused, and the fraud and
' corruption in the high places of the land
which has run riot for the past four years
has got to cease. Mr. Ferry. spoke with un-
usual earnestness and effect, and was followed
by' Nelson L. White, Esq, of Danbnry.—
' There were at least 300 Ladies present, and
. with the Music of the Band and the Songs of
the Glee Club, we don’t wonder that the
Speakers‘caught an unwonted inspiration.—
Old WM, CONSERVATIVE Wilton ne’er saw
.such asight before.
_ NEw Canaan—The Republicans had a
fine meeting at New Canaan on Friday night
last. Their hall not being sufficient to hold
the crowd the meeting was adjourned to the
Town House, where every inch of room was
occupied, and many had to surround the
building and listen from the windows out-
side. NORTROP spoke with his wontcd abil-
ity; and Mr. OFTEN closed by putting some
hard as well as humorous thumps into the
, sides of the sick and dying democracy. The
New Canaan Band were also out, and gave
us that promised edition of “ Uncle Abe’s
Quickstep,” with music to match, in their A
7 No. 1 'style. The fires of Republican ardor
" and enthusiasm are now fairly lit in old Fair-
field County, and if the locos don’t see a fu-
rious‘fiame before November we shall lose
our'guess.
The Floral Concert given by the young
people of the Congregational Society, on
Wednesday evening, was a decided success,
both pecuniarily and as a source of entertain-
ment. We seldom, if ever, witnessed a more
pleasing and really beautiful exhibition.

The Springfield Horse Show.
Connecticut took the prize banner for hav-
ing the most horses at the Horse Show at
Springfield last week, though quite a number
of her horses present were not in the caval-
cade. Norwalk was represented by the pres-
ence of a dozen or more of her citizens.—
The weather was fine and the show of fine
animals exceedingly large and fine, though
bearing no comparison to the first great
Horse Show held there. in our opinion. On
Thursday it was estimated that there were
50,000 people present.

WOn Friday of last week the family
horse of Harvey Keeler, of Ridgefiicld, had
the misfortune to upset a hive of bees, near
which he was tied. The inmates of the hive
exasperated at such an invasion of their do-
mestic tranquility, assailed their unconscious
enemy with such violence as to cause him to
run, frantic and blind, into a ledge'of rocks
where he fell and threw himself about till he
died. Mr. Kceler himself was also much in-

From what we saw in and about Dan--
bury last week, we feel confident that in so
far as fruits, vegetables, and flower decora-
tions are concerned, this exhibition of the
Society will exceed any display in previous
years. The grounds of Nelson L. WHITE,
Esq, alone, would furnish a larger and bet-
ter display than the entire exhibition of last
year. ' . .
From far and near, we learn that the own-
ers of‘fine Stocks of Cattle, andparticularly
IIorses,arc preparing to attend.- Thc Society
was'ncver able to present so fine accommo-
dations for either before. The large barns
and yards of Mr. White are gratuitously ton-
t'ered‘ to the use of exhibitors, while a well
graded track is located near the Fair grounds,
which has also been tendered to the Society
for the trials of speed, &c. ».

form no trivial attraction. . . .

shall be in session on Said Wednesday. At
such meetings the Court shall decide-upon
all applications to be admitted electors; shall
correct said list by additions or erasures, ex-
amine applicants, and if requested, require
evidence under oath; record names andrcsi-
dcnces of- applicants and witnesses by streets,

notice of the time and place of holding their

the election, but shall not be in session after
12 o’clOck on‘said day, Which session shall
be for the purpose only of admitting as - elec-

as above, consequently'it is of ‘ vast impor-
tance that all those who are qualified to be-
come electors and are desirous ,of availing
themselves ,of‘ the privilege, should apply to
the Board on or before the' Wednesday be-
fore election. ‘ ‘
' ' SEC. 6'providcs that all naturalization pa-
.pers shall be endorsed by the Clerk of said
Board, with the date of such endorsement
written thereon. This will effectUally pre-
vent such papers being fraudulently used by

shall be lodged in the office of the town

within twenty-four hours after the adjourn-
ment of said election. .
SEC. 9 provides that no person shall cote

'Mns‘sns.‘ EDITons'2—A journey through the States in
the early part of autumn, when-the fields are waving
with grain, and the trees bending gracefully with the
rich burdens of fruit, is exceedingly gratifying to tho
cpicurcan desires of every one, although travelling
upon the carslouc gets but a small idea of the trade
and wealth of the country, as Railroads are generally
built through the cheapest and poorest tracts of
country. . . . . . ~ > ‘
The crops through the western states are the larg;
“est known ‘for‘ some years. A gentleman from New
York state informs me that the fruit crop in the
western part. of the State is the largest be ever know,
many trees are broken down with the weight... The
crops in the States of Ohio, Michigan and Indiana
are also lar'gc, muCh larger than has been for the past
three years. The grain crop in Illinois—the banner
State of the West—is estimated in round numbers at
,28,000,000 bushels; 400,000 bushels were received in
Chicago last week. Illinois is bound to take th‘e lead
in raising grain and Presidents; 'l‘hc cople through
the west havin had such a beautiful arvest are Very
buoyant in their social as well as political" feelings.
Illinois leads the van] never was the country more
awake to the real issue. The people are aroused ;
they are (letermincd the go‘vernmcnt ihall bl; admin;
istorcd by more judicious hands. . , . ,

York State that the vote for Lincoln n and about
Auburn, Mr.‘Seward’s district, would be ‘ next to‘

for Lincoln will be larger byvhundreds than was 0]]-

Worms! Worms! Worms!
A great many learned treaties have been
written explaining the origin of, and classify-
ing the worms generated in the human sys-
tem. Scarcely any topic of medical science
has elicited >more acute observation and
profound research; and yet physicians are
very Inucb divided in opinion on the subject.
It must be admitted, however, that after all, a
mode of expelling them and purifying the
body from» their presence is of- more value
than the wisest disquisitions as to their
origin”; _: . _.
uch an expelling agent has at last been
found. Dr. M’Lane’s Vermifuge proves to be
the much sought after specific—fits faculty.—
As further proof, read the following from a
lady one of Our own citizens:
~ ' - NEW YORK, October 15th 1852.
This is to certify that I was troubledwith
worms for more than a year. I was advised
to use M’Lancs celebrated Vermb‘ilge, prepar-
ed by Eleming Bros. of Pittsburgh. I took
one bottle, which brought away about fifty
worms; I commenced improving at once,
and am now perfectly well. The public can
learnmy name, and further particulars, by
applying to Mrs. I-lardie, No. 3 Manhatten
place, or to E. L. Thcall, Druggist, corner of

iron Linen at‘short notice,with as little wear-
and-tcar as possible—and send it home hav-
ing the best possible finish. No machines
will be used in “lashing—and particular at-
tention paid to the supervision of garments,
re-placing lost buttons, &c. Special atten-
tion to. bleaching. Contracts can be made by
families. Blank Lists will be furnished pat-
rons upon application to the office, when or-
ders can be left and Clothes called for at sta-
ted intervals as often as desired, and prompt-
ly returned at the time promised—«giving the
customers the least possible trouble. Every
