WESTPORT.—A Mrs. Brotherton, aged
about 71 years, committed suicide last Friday
morning while in a state ofainsanity. She
had been partially deranged for the past two
years, yet the family did not think she would
commit the rash act of self-destruction. She
rose as usual in the morning, attended to
her household afi‘airs, got breakfast for the
. family, but declined taking any food herself
saying she had no appetite. Her husband
who‘is an old man about 75 years old, watch-
- ed her movements; she went out doors and
t
in a few minutes they found her a short dis.
tunes from the house, attempting to cut her
throat with a razor. They brought her into
the house, bound up her throat which was
not much injured, and she was left in charge
vof‘ her son while her husband went to the
, barn to feed his cattle. While he was gone
she told her son she would go up stairs and
make the beds. She went up, but instead of
making the beds she Went to the garret, took
a clothes line, threw one end over a beam
and fastend the other around her neck Her
long stay up stairs excited the fears of the
family and they found she had accomplished
the deed, They cut the rope as soon as pos-
sible but life was extinct.

REDDINO, Feb. 19, 1866.
‘MEssns. EDITORsz—We are having rail-
road on the brain up in this town. Some
one from Westpor't sent up to have a railroad
meeting, some two weeks ago, to see how
much stock could be raised in this place for
a railroad from Westport, through Lyons
Plains, Poverty Hollow and Newtown, to
Brookfield. The meeting was not vei y
largely attended, as part of the town wanted
said road to run through Sanford town, be.
ing nearer and accommodating the town
much better. The sum required was twenty
thousand dollars; the sum raised was about
‘eleven thousand. The meeting. was ad-
journed till last Friday night. ‘The ad-
journed meeting was a regular fizzle—more
of a Fenian meeting than a railroad meeting.
I hear. some of our farmers are very much
Opposed to the road for fear their cows will
be afraid of the cars and they will have to
sell them, and that they can raise no more
chickens, for the rumbling of the cars will
stop their hatching! '
Last winter a good many in town got the
“ile” fever. Oil was discovered all along
the brooks in the roads, and at one time
there was strong talk of raising a company
to sink a well, but it all ended in talk, just as
the railroad will. Hope Norwalk will not
be jealous of her neighbors in Westport, for
there never will be a railroad built from the
latfiar place to Brookfield unless they are
more enterprising than they seem to be at
home. RAILROAD. -

Massns. EDITORs—In consideration of the
eminent services of the late Nehemiah Perry,
1!. D., of this town, and in accordance with
the expressed wish of many of those to whom,
personally, or in their families, he has been a
ministering angel of mercy, it is proposed to
erect arsii'itabl'e monument, commemorative
of a professional life. which has extended
over i periodof-fifly sic years in this one re-

Feeling fthat, such a remarkable thing
should befproperly chronicled, several] gen-
tlemen met together. to- devise the best
means for doing it. Mr. Joshua King was
_, chosen chairman, and a large, icommitiee
were appointed to collect the necessary fund.
\ The idea is, to give all, who may wish to
express the grateful sense of their obligation
to Dr. Perry for his kindness an Opportu-
nity to do something. Hardly a family, in a
radius often miles, but has had occasion to
rejoice over health and life restored to one
or more of its members, by God’s blessing on
, the Dr's Ikillful use of means It is believed
than“ such will esteem it a pleasure to give
to the monument fund. The names of all do-
nors will be placed in a sealed casket within
the monument, and a copy given to the fam-
lly'l‘hose who may wish for further informa-
tion or who may not be called upon, and may
yet wish to to aid the object, can communi-
cate with the President, Mr. Joshua King, or
with Mr. Henry Smith, Secretary, or Mr. Lew-

f remark that these machines are rarely
seen at fairs, and the SingerCo. have not
entered into the general scramble for pre-

ears. The agent in this city saw fit, how-
ever, to come out on this occasion, in force;
and notwithstanding the competion was
sharp—tire Wheeler & Wilson, Grover do

plain to be seen, when the practical tests
were applied that the “plumes" must be

part to perform as the Sounding Board has
in aPiano Forte (to give body and resonance

comes merely a Melodeon in an Organ Case.
The American Organs n -I only hive the
Wind-Chest, or Sound-Box but. have the
large Organ Bellows, giving .power and
great steadiness of tone. These with their
extreme fine voicing of the Reeds and per-
fectin of the tone make them the MOST
