-T1'ie'sday filled the tent with more than our
.usual dispiay of fruits, flowers and vegetables
end multitarioue articles of utility and taste.
Had Wednesday been pleasant we doubt not
we should have seen a larger collection of
people than on any previous occasion . As it
was. there were 18 entries of blooded stock,
'2 of grade, and 29 working oxen and steers .
10 cows and heifers; 18 entries of ships
Titery fine collection; and 2 entries only of
swine. We never saw finer pairs of work-
ing cattle then were many of these present,

ure,eudoas hundred of var'icus kinds for ex-
hibition only. Thirty entries of Farming
uteruils were made, and fifty of exhibitors of
fruits, 11nd we may add the show of fruit was

never surpassed. We regret that our lack of

entries and was most creditable. There were.
thirty-four entries of poultry, an unusual fine
collection, of which we as a victim of the
fowl fever are confident R. R. Bur'wick had
the best. The show of vegetables has rarely
been equalled. Seventy-nine entries were
made and all were very line. Our friend J.

&c. He has raised, this season, about 25 bar-
rels of choice Pears, all of which have been
preserved by Mr. J. E. Elle, grocer, Water-

The Apples which received the first pre-
mium were from trees which came from the
New Canaan Nursery

On Thursday afternoon, the “ Fantastics,"

to the number of about fifty, appeared on the

ting much amusemenl, by their quaint dress-
es_ and comical appearance.

Where large crOwds are, there thieves
most do congregate. Mrs. Susan Stevens, of

son of Mrs. Josiah Kellogg, but made his
escape to the crowd.

This season, Mr. J ohu Moir,,-gardener to J

.B. Hoyt, Esq , Stamford, who has usually
taken the leading premiums for choice Fruits
and Vegetables, entered nothing for compe-
tition, bathed on exhibition a great variety
of dahlias and other flowers, watermelons,
and a large case of hot- house Grapes, Peach-
es, Peers, &c., which were admired by all Oh-
servers. Mr. Meir will please accept our
thanks for a generous donation of fruit, which
we found as delicious to the taste “pleasing
to the. sight. .
' The new‘Board of Officers of the Society
werked 1111111111115: and may well congratulate
themselves upon the great success of the Ex-

is specially'dcserving of praise for the em-
cieat manner in which be discharged the ar-
duous duties of his ofliice.

[8‘ Our thanks are due Mr. John Ryan,
gardener to Ol1ver Hoyt, Esq, for'a magnifi-
cent bunch of Black Hamburg Grapes. The
exhibitions mode by the Hoyt Brothers of
Stamford, were eitceedingly fine in the fruit,
flower, and vegetable departments. V

WThere was some fine trotting on the
Park on Saturday, which was fully attended
and continued up to a late hour.

day last while driving to Norwalk. He was

Mr. D. was on his way to attend the funeral

ANOTHER.-On Friday afternoon a horse
belonging to Mr. Wm. Raymond, taking
fright at some cattle, on West Avenue, sud-
denly cheered out of the road, and run into a

Wildman, from Danbury, was quite badly
hurt. The carriage was not badly damaged,
and the horse was uninjured.2

SUDDEN DEATns.—Capt. Stephen Ferris,
J r., a. well-known resident, Down Town,dlcd
very suddenly on Tuesday afternoon last,
of heart-disease, probably aggravated by ex-
citement. That morning while carting a
load of coal, his oxen run away and the bolt
came out letting the tongue of the cart to
the ground, jarring him very much. He
went home, partook Of a hearty dinner, and

 

 

dropped his shovel, pitched forward on to
the coal, and died almost instantly. He was
an honest, upright and honorable citizen, re-
spected and regretted by all who knew him.

Mr. Charl_es Comstock, well-known here-
obouts as one of our most successful fruit
culturists, died very suddenly on Thursday
last,'of Dyseutery. He was out and about
his place Only a‘ few hours prior to his death.
He was a. most worthy and industrious citi-
