CEMEN'I‘ ROOFING.
HIS article has been thoroughly tested by
builders, Architects, and others, and the
experience of years has proved it to be the
cheapest and most durable roofing in use.
We call attention to the following facts :
lst—It is fire and water proof.
2d—From its great elasticity it is not inju-
riously affected by extremes bf heat and cold.
3d—It is adapted to all kinds of Roofs,
whether steep or flat, and is not in want of
constant repairs, as is the case with metal and
other roofs.
4th—The cost is only about One-Half that
of Tin, and it is twice as durable.
It is readily applied to Old Shingle Roofs,
without removing-the shingles, which is a
great desideratum' to parties who do not wish
to risk having their ceilings and furniture ru-
ined, while repairs are being made.
Leaky Tin and Metal Roofs are readily rc-
paired with Guttii Percha Cement, and
preventedfrom further corrosion and leaking
thereby insuring a perfectly water-tight roof
for many years. .
Specimens of the Rcofing can be seen by
calling on the subscriber, at South Norwalk.

Written on the death of little Anna hf. Weed.
In the bright joyous spring she went
From earth to yonder sky;
We know that she was only lent,
Yet thought not she could die.
But 0 our dearest and our best
Alike in death‘s embrace must rest.
’Twasjust at the departing year,
When from this household band
Death called a parent near and dear
. Up to the spirit land.
‘ And new again his voice is heard,
And childhood has obeyed his word.
Yes, she is gone! A little mound
Covers the form we love ;
They laid her body ’neath the ground.
Her spirit dwells above.
Then weep not o’er her lifeless clay,
But follow where she led the way.
She followed in her father‘s track,
She crossed the narrow stream,
No earthly arm could hold her back,
She longed to be with him.
Her feet the homeward pathway knew,
Her father had been o’er it too.
We would not call thee back again,
Thou spirit bright and fair—
We love ’mid earthly toil and pain.
To think that thou art there.
We would not rob the heavenly choir
OfAnna‘s voice and tuneful lyre.
And when we are from earth set free,
We‘ll soar above the sky,
To join with Christ and friends and thee,
In joys that never die.
We place our hopes beyond the tomb
In Heaven above our future home.

LOST IN A FOG.
It was the last day in November, in the
, your one thousand eight hundred and twenty
something, and about the hour of noon, when
thegreat and glorious—we might, on this oc-
casion, say oain-glorious—City of London
was hidden from mortal eyes by one of those
dense drown fogs that often times convert it
into any thing but a Paradise. So suddenly
had the obscurity come on, that many an
unlucky wight had unwittingly strayed out
of the right path, not morally,.be it under-
stood, but literally, being misled by the im-
possibility of distinguishing one street from
another in those locolities where all the resi‘
dences§ere private houses.
Arno g thgse misguided wayfbrers was a
certain pretty widow, named Cumley, who
had been lured from her “apartments,“ in
Great Corona street, by- a faint glimmering of
the sun, which, an hour before, had given
some hope of at least a continuance of .day-
light for a sufficient space of time to enable
her to make a few purchases, with a view of
the enhancement of her personal attractions
at a party that was to come off on the follow-
ing evening. It was in her way back from
Oxford street that the darkness began to
gather around like the shades of night, caus-
ing her to quicken her pace, and make sun--
dry wise reflections on the folly of having
, suffered herself to be tempted,by the prompt-
iugs 0f vanity, to venture abroad on such an
inauspicious morning. .
Afi‘aid of passing over a crossing, she kept
on the footway, and took one or two turnings
haphazard, still haping she was going in the
direction, until, no longer able to distinguish
streets from squares, she became as complete-
ly lost as the Babes in the Wood, for she was
now in these aristocratic regions where there
was not a single shop in which she might
MW nonght aid or counsel in this her be-
, sighted situation.
"What in the world out I to do?” said Mrs.
Cumley to herself. “I shall never find my
way home; and as to getting into a cab, even
if I could meet wtth one, which is not very
likely, I should be afraid to trust myself. It
must be getting thicker. I shall not be able
to see an inch before me, presently. What a
very unfortunate thing, to be sure 1"
_ Mrs. Cumley was no coward, nor did she
‘ want for presence of mind in any of the ordi-
nary circumstances of life; but this was a
dilemma for which she wastotally. unprepar-
ed, and it threw her into. an unwanted state
ofpsmlexity «pasteurization: the 1mm l
wh‘qm she might have applied for'iuforma-
tion 'as‘to, her whereabouts“ At length a bril-
liant ideafiashed throogh’her-miud.‘ ' _
. “It-can do no very great harm,” she
thought, “to knock at a door, and. ask what
street this is. Any one will be civil'enough
to tell me that.” ‘
And acting on the impulse of themoment,
she with some little difficulty, found out the
door of choose, for even the doors and win-
dows "had- becomer invisible,- Vsnd having dis-
covered the knocker‘ 'she- gave, not a loud,
authoritative rat-tst-tat, that demands instant
admission, but a modest rap,‘which seemed
many “I shall feel obliged if you will open
the door at your earliest convenience.”
It was, therefore, some minutes before the
appeal was answered,but at length a man ser-
vant presented himself, and opened his eyes
to their'utmost extent at seeing a well-dress-
ed ladyout, and on foot, in such bad weather.
“I am sorry to trouble you," said Mrs.
Cumley, “but will you have the kindness to
tell me what street this is, for I have lost my
way in consequence of the fog ?”
“It is'no street at all, ma’am,” said the man
who seemed much disposed to laugh. “This
is Torrington Square.”
“Torrington Square! Bless me, then I
have come a great deal too far, and now I
don’t know which way I must turn to get to
Great Coran street.”
She had stepped upon the threshold of the
door, and was enabled to observe by the aid
of a gas lamp that shed its brilliant rays
through the hall, that the house she had so
unceremoniously invaded was of no mean
order. There was an air of spaciousness and
elegance about it that denoted wealth and
luxury. The stairs were richlycarpeted, and
there was a good fire in a stove opposite the
door-way in the hall that diffused a glowing
warmth and brightness on the scene within,
which was the more striking from its contrast
to cold and gloom‘without. ’
The man was doing his best to put her in
the right way for the locality she had named
when a door on one side of the hall suddenly
opened, and a gentleman with a newspaper
in his hand made his appearance.
“What is it, James ‘2”
“A lady, sir, has lost her way in the fog,
and wants to be directed.”
“Dear me, that’s awkward,” he said, ad-
vancing a step or two, perhaps to ascertain
what the lady was like, and the light shone
full upon her face, he made another move in
advance and said,—-“You had better walk in,
madam, and wait till it is a little clearer.”
“I am very much obliged to you, sir; I
shall be really very glad if you will allow me
to sit down here for a little while; I dare say
it will be lighter presently.” As she was go
ing modestly to take a seat by the hall fire,
he waved his hand politelv toward the apart-
ment from which he had just emerged, on
which she courtesied with graceful ease and
- walked in. '
As the gentleman was following, she heard
the servant say something to him in a low
tone, wherein the word “luncheon” was dis-
tinctly audible, and her quick ear caught the
reply— ~ -
“Oh, yes—yes. Bring it up all the same;
for two, of course.”
It was alarge, well-furnished dining-room,
and the widow had no sooner cast her eyes
around it, than she came to the conclusion
that its owner was a bachelor. She did not
exactly know why she thought so, but was
so convinced of such being the fact that she
would not have hesitated to bet a pair of
gloves upon it.
Mr. Hazlett was in truth a single man,
somewhat past the meridian of life, but good
looking still, with courteous, gentlemanlikc
manners, and to judge from the appearance
of his surroundings, in easy circumstances.
“I am sure,” he said, as he placed a chair
near the fire for his involuntary guest, “I
ought to feel much indebted to this fog, since
it has procured meso unexpected a pleasure.”
The lady acknowledged the compliment in
proper terms accompanied by a merry little
laugh, that sounded very much as if she
could have said the pleasure was not all on
one side; and while these civilities were in
course of exchange,the luncheon-tray brought
in, laden with cold chicken, ham, veal patties
and other savory viands, together with a de-
canter sherry and some bottled ale.
Mrs. Cumley began to feel herself quite at
home. She drew her chair to the table and
took off her gloves, thereby displaying a pair
of delicately white and well shaped hands.—
She was certainly a very pretty woman, with
sparkling black eyes, white teeth, and a good
complexion. Her age might be thirty-five or
thereabcuts; it is unnecessary to be particl
ular on that point, thirty-five would be near
enough to the mark, even for a census paper.
A tete-a-tete luncheon is ofteii a pleasant
thing. ,

“It’s a rum go up stairs,” said James to the
two damsels of the lower regions. “I should-
n't wonder if master’s caught at last: and
that’s what she’s up to, it’s my opinion, for I
heard her tell him she’s a widder.”
“Well,I never l” exclaimed the hoosemaid.
“It would be droll to get a husband in that
way, wouldn't it, James ?”
“ Why, it would, rather, my dear; but
there's various ways of getting a husband,
you know."
And he favored her with asagacious wink,
which caused her to blush like a peony, and
turn away laughing.
The cook, however, who also acted as
house keeper, was not inclined to make so
light of the matter as these younger and
more thoughtless denizens of the household.
“For her part," she said, “she didn’t see
anything to laugh at, and she wondered that
a man at Mr. Hazlett’s years should let him-
self be tnken in such a barefnced manner; but
it was a true saying sure enough, that ‘there‘s
no fool like an old fool l' ”
Having thus expressed her sentiment with
regard to her master, she continued to mani-
fest her disapproval ofthe proceedings in the
dining-room by sundry vituperative remarks
on widows in general, as a particular and
distinct species of the human race.
“Well, but, cook, it all happened acciden-
tally,” said James, “whatever comes of it.”
“Oh, don’t tell inc—accidental, indeed !—
I’ll be bound she knew very well who lived
here, and did it on purpose to get her foot in
or else why couldn’t she as well
have knocked at any other door, I
should like to know. But it’s just like them

minutes, not abhmafbeiifg‘hiidfii‘siédibyfo'
um. A911,; n ,1 ,
In the meanwhile the tete-astete above was
progressing charmingly. Mr. Haslett had
not enjoyed his mid-day reflection so much
for a considerable time,‘ and this was a most
extraordinary anomaly, for he would have
shrunk almost with horror, or at least with a
nervous fear from the bare thought of delib-
erately inviting a lady to lunch with him
alone; yet now that fate had brought this
visitation so unexpectedly upon him, he did
not feel it nearly so embarrassing as fancy
would have depicted, had he known before
hand that such an event was actually about
to take place; Yet he was not an onsocial
man by nature, neither did he entertain any
of those heretical notions respecting the arts
and wiles of the fair sex that are so often cul-
tivated in the minds of mddle-aged bachelors
like poisoned weeds, choking up and destroy-
ing the liberal and kindly sentiments that
might lead them to adopt a happier state of
being.
The two individuals brought so strangely
together seemed to enjoy the joke amazingly
It was so laughable, and the amazement it
created made them feel as if they had been
acquainted with each other for ten years in-
stead of ten minutes. The conversation ran
into various channels and at length touched
on the subject of matrimony.
“Yes, a single life is all very well,” said Mr.
Hazlett, “while a man is on the right side of
forty; but after that, when he takes to his
own fireside, he finds that he wants a com-
panion. I begin to feel that way I assure
you."
“Then why not a make change ?” said the
lady, with a naivete that was quite fascina-
ting.
“Well, I don’t know. It wants some cour-
age to rouse one’s self out of old habits. Now
what age should you take me to be?”
This was a delicate question. The lady
did not like to answer it according to her
honest belief, therefore she deducted about
ten years from what she imagined to bathe
real sum total, and replied,
“Forty-five.”
The gentleman smiled pleasantly, he felt
gratified, and drawing himself up with an air
of self satisfaction, said, (in a tone that im-
plied “you would scarcely believe it,”) “I am
fifty-six.”
Of course she expressed all the surprise
that could be expected; and although she
was by no means a designing person,it would
perhaps, be going a little too far to say that
not a thought entered her mind prejudicial
to the future liberty of the old bachelor.
However, all_ things must come to an end,
as was now exemplified in the cases of lunch
and fog. The time devoted to the former
had indeed been prolonged to an unusual
length, and the sun was again visible in the
form of a crimson ball, so Mrs. Cumley rose
to depart, and -as she was putting on her
gloves, repeated her grateful acknowledg-
ments of the polite attention she had met
with in her difficulty.
“Will you allow my servant to get you a
cab ?” said Mr. Hazlett.
“Oh, no, I thank you; the distance is so
short, I can walk home very well. Good
morning, sir; I assure you I shall never for-
get your extreme kindness. 'Good bye.”
There was something in the sound of
“Good bye” that fell unpleasantly on the ear
of Mr. Hazlett. He was unwilling to bid a
final adieu to so charming a person, and with
reckless disregard of probable consequences,
he said boldly then and there— '
“Will you permit me to have the honor of
calling to inquire how you got home ?”
To which she replied—
“Oh, you are very good.” A dubious an-
swer, that may be interpreted without any
great stretch of imagination, “Yes, you may
come.”
As soon as she was gone, Mr Hazlett sat
down to finish reading the newspaper, but he
did not find it nearly so enlivening as the
widow’s cheerful talk; in fact, he never felt
so lonely as he did during the remainder of
that eventful day.
The question put by his lively, entertain-
ing guest—“Then why not make a change?”
rccurred more than once to his mind;
and each time the mental response was-—
“She is quite right; there is no reason on
earth why not.”

It was about three months after the adven-
ture we have just related, when a handsome
carriage and pair, laden outside with travel~
ling trunks, portmantaus and other emblems
of travellers returning from a journey, drove
to to a door in Torrington Square.
A smirking footman instantly came out
and let down the steps of the vehicle, from
which alighted a good looking middle—aged
gentleman, who, with a smile and a nod,
transferred his stick and a railway wrapper
to the obsequious lackey, while he assisted a
lady in descending from the carriage.
“See to the luggage, J ames," he said; then
drawing the arm of his fair companion
through his own, he conducted her through
the hall to the dining-room, where blazing
fire, and a table laid out for a Dumptuous re
past, betokened that their arrival was not
unexpected.
The gentleman looked radiant and happy,
and as, with beaming eyes, he welcomed his
smiling bride to her new home he said face-
tiously—
“But after all, dear, you must allow that it
was I not you that was lost that day in the fog.”

The Enfield Rifle.
The Enfield rifle is nothing more nor less
than the United States Springfield rifled
musket, christened in England the Enfield
rifle, after the place in that kingdom where
trey are being manufactured, under the lore-
manship of half a dozen master workmen
imported from Springfield armory works.—
In this country the weapon is best known as
the American Minnie musket. The Ameri-
can mechanics above referred to carried the
patterns over to England with them. Near-
ly all of them are back again in Springfield,
having spent some three years in putting the
Eufield Minnie musket works in operation.—
The Enficld gun, like our Minnie musket is
of calibre 58.

A serious accident occurred at the Old
Depot last evening. Mr. Richard Wolcott,
of New Haven, lately in the employment of
the Telegraph Company, attempted to jump
on board the 7 o’clock up train. He fell un~
der the‘ wheels, having one leg crushed be-
low the knee. Amputation, under direction
of Dr. Bennett, was performed—Mr. W
showing great coolness under the circum-
stances. The tocs of the other foot were al-
so crushed, but it is thought that it can be
saved. Mr. W. was taken to New Haven in
the next train. He did not faint under his
sufferings, and in all probability he will re-
cover. Another caution l-Standard, Wed-
