‘ Our Fair.
Our Agricultural, Horticultural and Me-
’ chairical friends have but a. week more In
which to prepare for our annual County ex-
position of products of shop and field. From
what we learn, the Fair will elicit unusual
interest this year. The Track and grounds
will be in excellent condition, and many'
new features of interest and improvement
willbeintroduced. '
A friend urges a separate entrance gate for
’ season tickent holders—an excellent sugges-
tion. Another entrance and exit will doubt-
less be arranged or“ the new bridge near
the factory, which will greatly convenience
all from the west ‘side of the river.

Our Ridgefield friends will open their an-

done themselves a vast amount or credit and
we know that itwill pay our people to attend
in larger numbers than they have hitherto
done. We pledge a “good time” to all who

The Results.
The ignorant and fanatical voters of Maine,
have, by their recent conduct at the polls,
stirred up,a“great commotion, motion-mo-
' tion the country through.” Tammany Hall
and kindred places have been turned 'into
“houses of mourning” the occupants of which
utterly “refuse to be comforted.” The Her-
old has turned Radical and joins Parson
" Brownlow in pronouncing Andy Johnson a
“dead dog.” The Evening Post has been
compelled to forego its crazy free trade no-
tidns and tirades long enough to work its
way back into the Republican party and the
support of Gov. Fenton. TheTt'mes which
was “knocked speechless” by the “news
from Maine," has recovered the use of its
, tongue and falls to denouncing its late cop-
perhesd allies as cheats and sharp'ers whom
honest “conservatives”cannot associate with,
and is I‘backing out” of their company as
gracefully as possible. The World is dole-
ful and lugubrious, and in its desperation
abuses and denounces its former allies and
main supporters—the Irish voters. Ben.
Wood has abandoned the News in disgust
and profanely declares that he has abandon-
ed Andy Johnson’s “Policy” for his own
“policy” “4-11-44,” which he regards as'
more respectable and profitable of the two.
Such are some of the results of the late
“Maine Election.” ’
c‘..~o
“His eyes is Sat.” _
If ever the friends of any policy or party
had cause for rejoicing it must be the “my
policy men” over the fact that the late polit-
ical managerie, which started out for a jolly
wake at the grave of Douglass has “closed its
engagement.” They had a spirited time of it
for a season, but the speeches soon began to
become too much even for the President’s
new copperhead allies. Sick and ashamed
of him, and his utterances; and the President
himself disgusted, and Seward taken with
the cramps on the first election returns from
Maine, the party sidled into Washington on
Saturday evening, dejected, marl an as gener-
ally discomforted and discouraged as a coop
of wet hens. That show was a sublime fiz-
zle in everything except national shame-and
derision. . '

R. R. division's—The return match of the
Railroad Muffins came off on Saturday after.
noon last,on.thc grounds of the Stamford
Club, Stamford, and resulted in a handsome
victory to the Stamford Mullins by a, score
of 54 to 37. Thus making,r it stand one game
for each side. This result is owing partly to
the improved play of the Stamford Muffins,
bur more to the extreme muffinish . play of
the Nor'wal‘k party. ' , ,
Just before the commencement of the
game, Mr. J. D. Smith announced that a
liberal-beamed citizen of Siarnford'liad ' sent
in twelve pounds of handsome Grapes, to be
aWarded .to the muffin who should make
' the cleanest score.
The game commenced with Fitch of Nor-
walk,'at the bat who sent 'the ball a"sbort
distance tO the left, stopped to watch the
course of the ball, and was consequently too
late at the first base and had to retire; Dun-
lap followcd with one in the air which
Branty at the 3d base took in a very unme-
finlike manner on the fly and stopped his
running ; Nash then tried his skill but was
immediately caught out on a foul and the
Norwalk boys gracefully retired with it
around Ofor that inning. Stamford com-
menced with Weston at the bat, but he was
soon disposed of on a foul, and Lockwood,
Senior, took the bat and on a good stroke 'to
center-field made his first base, and, owing
to the catcher being a thorough muffin and ‘
missing a large number of fouls, the players
succeeding him were able to eventually
make good strikes, so as to secfrre their ba-
ses and bring Lockwood home—the first
score made; this inning Stamford made 8.
.The second inning Norwalk'succeeded in
scoring2, ,and' Stamford 15; the only re—
deeming feature in this inning was “Sam”-
(Of. Nor-walk.) following the bad example
set by Branty in the previous inning, taking
a ball on the fly that was knocked away
down in the right field. At the conclusion
of this inning, Stamfm‘d were so elated that
they called time and generously passed
around several trays of genuine muffins; as
refreshments.
Norwalk, now made a (change in their
players, Salter, one of their number, giving
our, Plait was substituted in his place and
put on the lst base, and. Horn was sent
from lst base to acl as c.itclier,wbicli Change

'bopc for victory. The inning rcsultcd'izi
Norwalk adding 9 to their score, and Stam-
ford 1,_-—-lhe latter barely escaping a white:
wash throu‘gh‘a' mis play of the Norwalk
catcher. '
On the 4th inning Norwalk made 9'uud
Stamford lO—Norw‘alk hopefulnnd stock
good. 'I‘lic’5th, Nortvalk made ll‘and Slain-
fprd only 6; Nor'walk very elated and hopeful:
the Norwalk’s were; now playing well, ' but
had a ludicrous scene; at one time 3 men
Fitch, Dunlap and Nash were on bases—Dun-
lap on a passed ball ran to, third base which
was held by Fitch who ought to have. run
home, but he thinking only of safety, persist-
e‘ntly held his base, and poor Dunlap was
pushed hither and thither by his side;'whilc
the other side were sending the ball to every
place but the rightone to get him out, finally
his captain caught and undertook to carry
him to the second base, got him most there,
when the Stamford boys woke up and put
the ball in ahead, tthutting him out. This
was a very laughable scene 'and was enjoyed
“hugely" by the crowd of spectators. '
The 6th inning Norwalk madefi and Stam-
ford 5. The 7th, Branty shook out another
reef in his tall hat, and Norwnlk added 1 and
Stamford 9 to their score. During this in
ning a. hall was struck to near the 3rd base,
Backstcr got it, came\back to the~basc hold-
ing the ball, and stopped to congratulate
Adams who had just gained the base, seeing
which Braully who had just made his 1st
base and who was always up to some unmuf-
finish practice, stole away for 2d, when Back-
ster alarmed by the calls made to him turn-
ed and made a wild throw to the 2d,,u‘pon
which ungrateful Adams, not waiting tolienr
the end of the congratulations being offered, .
immediately ran home and Branly took his
place at the 3rd. .-
It now being late, and the light poor, the
Umpire, Mr. John Wildey, of the Mutuals,
New York, and President OI\tIiC National
Base Ball Association, called the game with
the Result as given above, viz: Stamford 54
runs; Noi'walk 37 runs. ,
The Nor-walk Mufllins immediately gave
nine hearty cheers fnr'the Stamford Muffins,
which were heartily responded to by Stani~~
ford. Then Mr. Smith announced that Capt.
Brantingham of the'Stamford Muffins hav-'
ing made the best' score was entitled to the
Grapes, but. be having generously waived
his claim thereto in favor of the Norwalk
Mullins, it Was awarded to E. A. Woodman
behaving lilo best score on that side.

An Bffectuai Worm Medicine.
BROWN’S VBRMIPUGE COMPITS,
0n Worm LoanoEs. Much sickrfess undoubtedly,
with children and ndutts, attributed to other causes
. is occasioned by worms. The “ VEBIIIFUCE COM-
rr'rs," although effectual in destroying w'orms. can
‘ do no possible injury to the most delicate child.
This valuable combination has been successfully
used by physicians, and found to be safe and sure in
”eradicating worms, so hurtful to' children. V
CEILDBEN naero v Worms. require Immediate at-
tention, as neglect of the trouble often causes pro-
longed sickness. ' \ '
SYMPTOMS or Worms IN CEILDBEN are often over-
looked. Worms in the stomach and bowels cause
irritation, which can be removed only by the use of
a sure remedy. , The combination of ingredients
used in making Brownie “ Vermifuge Com/its" is
such as to give the best‘possiblc effect with safety.

Irresponsible Counterfeiters.
One of the most serious annoyances which the
propricto rs of an article in unusual demand have
to encounter is the piratical imitation of it by par-
ties equally unscrupulous and irresponsible. . If an
individual oru firm with means engage in this no.
farious business, the damages awarded by a court of
justice for the offense are collectable, and it is some
satisfaction to the party wronged that the wronger
is made to suffer , but in most cases the pirates are
men of straw, who cannot respond in dollars to the
law’s award. '
IIOS’I‘ETTER‘S STOMACII BITTERS Doing a
Standard Tonic, marketable everywhere, and rep-
scuring the value affixed to it as accurately as a Na-
tional Bank bill represents the amount expressed
on its face‘, has been extensively counterfeitcd and
simulated. The proprietors have spent many
thousand dollars in hunting up and hunting down
irresponsible individuals and firms who have given
their minds to this dirty work. These parties-
some of them, at least—,havc a way of changing their
base, through they never change their baseness -—
thn an injunction is laid upon them in one part
or, and try the trick again. In some cases it is nec-
essary to kill them two or three times over. Per-
haps the best thingthat can be done is to “ lay an
injunction" upon all who use the Bitters to buy
only of dealers whom thcv can trust. In every city
town and village of the United States and British
America this famous tonic, allerativc and protective
medicine may be procurred of reliable men of busi-
ness. . 36
