A Carriage Ride across the
' Country.
MIDDLETOWN, N. Y., Oct. 9, 1866.
“ There is no royal road to learning” says
the olden saw, but trawl is unquestionably
about the only royal road to knowledge—not
the eruditlon of the schools or the legendary
lore of the classics—but practical, useful,eve-
ry day knowledge may be and is best learned
by moving about, by commingling with oth-
' as, by the chafe and friction of largest inter-
course with men and things in every part of
the land. This is well; but for a quiet, un-
obstrusivc and genuineenjoyment in recrea-
tion commend us to an easy carriage, and a
steed who takes pleasure in wheeling-it over
ten or twelve miles Of good road per hour.
Such was the editor‘s felicity when at four p.
m., on Wednesday last, be bid adieu to Nor-
walk,(thrice blessed and beautiful abode)—
turncd our horse’s head up through the thriv-
ing little embryo village of Winnipauk, the
more elongated , but less humming locality of
Kent ; of Wilton’s centre, with her quiet,
quaint, yet solid and salabrious surroundings;
thence to and through cool and beautiful,
Bidgefield to the mansion of our jolly Boni-
face friend Crosby at-Salem. Here we drop-
ped rain at half past six, sat down to tea,and
broiled steak" yielded to our incisors and mo-
lars without resistance. Supper over,the af-
fairs of the state and nation fully and satisfac-
torily discussed, “my policy” voted a ham-
bug, we retired to a good old fashioned cOun-
try bed, with immaculate linen sheets, and
slept as one at “peace with all the world and
the rest of mankind.” Next morning, just as
“jocund day stood tip-toe on the mountain
top,” we were- summoned to a breakfast of
underest sirloin, hot coffee, country bread
and butter, a smiling landlady beautiful even
is age, with children and children’s children
supporting and assisting in the table honors r
ranged in serried ranks upon either. side.
Enakfast over, a hearty “thank you” in ad-
dition to our moderate bill extended to mine
host, we sped away, this most glorious of all
the golden October days we ever enjoyed. to
Carmel. Approaching this charming little
town, begin with its romantic lakes and wa-
terfalls of nature's and not hirsute creation,
we passed the new Putnam County Agric ul-
turslPark and Trotting 'course. The grounds
lie within a circle of hills and mast sufi‘er
much from any considerable rain,yct' the en-
closure is an elegant and attractlve one,
- Near its oblong end is a one story building
about the size, and of precisely the Same ar-
chitectural design, of our South Norwalk dc.
\ pot, which suggested to our mind the advisa-
bility of our Society's purchasing the Depot
V building when it shall be moved off to give
place to a new and more pretentious struct-
ure, which we understand is to be early next
‘ Spring.
On our drive from Salem and before reach-
ing the Harlem road at Brewster’s Station,
we passed a large steam-power factory for
_‘ 1 the condensation of milk; and long‘lines of
,' .‘fsrr'ner’s wagons, like the supply train of an
. army brigade, were tending to and from the
same. Wclcarned incidentally that so strong
was the competition between the factory and
the‘city milk men for a supply of the lacteal
fluid, that seven cents per quart was offered
by the latter,for all the farmers would ship to
New York. Crossing the Harlem track. we
next encountered four and six mule teams,
(reminding us vividly of “the days just past
"when we went ‘sojcring,’ ”) drawing heavy
loadsof iron ore to the railroad, for still lur-
ule‘r transportation abroad. What a field is
here, thought we, for 'a little Yankee enter-
_ prircto open a furnace and smelt this are
upon the sponrwhere coals and labor and liv- ~'
lug must be cheap as compared with the lar-
ger towns. But what attracted our attention
most, (with a chronic eye and weakness for
agricultural matters) was the general air of
snbstsmill emfm pervading almost every
harm house and farm. Commencing with
the Howe place, on the Connecticut border,
the J one and Titus manorial estates, and so
~ “along toand for many miles beyond Carmel,
the road-sides are almost continuously lined
with slurs, maples, locusls and even cherry
and sapples trees, forming a most beautiful
shade and enhancing by many thousands of
dollars'the intrinsic cash value of the farms.
’ Oh, that our Connecticut farmers would en-
hance the worth of their farms, the beauty
1
selves perhaps, may be sleeping benculh llm
willow,risc up and call them blessed. We
mean at least for one to urge this feature. for
liberal premium and encouragement by our
Agricultural Society, for ill no way can the
Value of the landed estate of Falrfield Coun-
ty be so surely and cheaply enhanced as by
‘setling out lines of shade trees beside either
fence along every highway. Farmers, one
and all, wont you do it? A short hall. at; Car-
mel, and another hours ride brought us to
'“Fal‘mers Mills.” Here we found a good
country hotel and store, with “entertainment
for man and beast’j, and a water power of
considerable volume and over thirty feet l’all,
running nearly to waste I We thought again
of the little,Connecticut hives of industry,
such a “waterfall" would grow a button fac-
tory, a hoop skirt, fine tooth comb or brush
factory as spontaneously as plaster springs
the clover.
Another twenty miles ride after dinner
-fouud us at 430 p. m. impatiently waiting
the ferry boat at Fishkill landing for trans-
portation across the Hudson to Newburgho
having passed through the wild and romantic
mountain country that skirts the Connecticut
line and extends to the silvery shore of the
Hudson. We halted .at‘ Newburgh for the
night, driving to this place next morning,
stopping, now and then, to get the political
status of some intelligent and good natured
native, on the road. By way of encourage-~
ment for friends at home, we will state in .
closing that New York state so safe. We
haven't encountered but one Johnson man
in all our journey and he in refering to “my
policy” “swing around the circle” remarked
with more honesty than piety, “— if the
d—nd fool had staid at home we could have
done something.” That man, like poor Hen-
ry J. of the limes, wants a customer for his
stock in the Johnson Copperhead Corpora-
tion. Of this beautiful town, the center vil-
lage of this rich, butter and milk county, we
will write you more another week‘. Till
then adieu. B.

halls becomes better known, the best class
of entertainments begin to stop at Norwalk.
This (Tuesday) evening, Mr Draper, mana-
ger of the popular American and Italian Op-
era Co., is to try the experiment of perform-
ing the well-known comic opera entitled
“The Doctor of Alcantara,” before a Nor-

great success at the new French - Theatre in
New York, by Mr' Draper’s company, where
it had’ a “run” of six weeks. It is sparkling
with wit, funny incidents, laughable situa-

day afternoou last, under the direction of
Chief-Engineer Asa Smith. The interest
in Fire matters, which was almost entirely
destroyed during the war,‘ seems to be reviv-
ing somewhat, and the display last week
was the best we have witnessed in years.
Although each company had a very small
turnout of members on this occasion, what
there was of them looked well, and the as.
paratus seemed in good condition, and
showed off to the best advantage The pro-

“Waiting for the Wagon.”
The scenes in the vicinity‘of the Draw-
bridgc, on Saturday, while,the six or seven
trains were waiting for the tide to rise, were
varied and instructive, but we fear that hard
swearing predominated, although some few
old stagers on the road appeared to take the
delay as. nothing unusual on the “draw-
bridge" railroad. We dont know whether
any of the honorable Senators of our last leg-
islature who had so much combination for
the widows and orphans who were stockhold
ers in this road that they could not vote for
a new road, without draw bridges, were pas-
sengers or not, but we feel quite sure if any
were there, they did not display any very
considerable amount of pride in consequence
thereof.

that. there was a preconcerted plan among
the rebel associations for the, purpose of al-
fuckiug the convention if there should be any
plausible prelext. But. for the declaration of
martial law and the presence'of troops, fire
yam bloodshed would have raged throughout
’the night in all the negro quaters of the cilv
Northeu men would have been at the mercy
of the mob. Three-fourths of the mob were
ex-rebel soldiers. The board review the con
duct of Mayor Monroe. and believe his action
precipitated the riot. The party in power in‘
New Orleans, with Mayor Monroe, the board
believe, if allowed to have their own way,
without punishment for past oficnses,‘ will
soon render New Orleansa place. of insecur-

THE AMERICAN ORGANS are the

VERBERA'I‘ING SOU D BOX or WIND
CHEST—which has the same important
part to perform as the Sounding Board has
in aPiano Forte (to give body and resonance
of tone) and without‘wllich the Organ be-
comes merely a Melodeon in all Organ Case.
The Americqurgans not only have the
Wind-Chest, or Sound Box but have the
large Organ Bellows, giving power and
great steadiness of ton’c. Those with their
extreme fine voicing of tho Reeds and per-
fecting of the lone, make lhem the MOST
PERFECT ORGAN KNOWN. Then, in
finene’ss of workmanship, finish of action,aad
' case, they excel all others. These great im-
provemeuls ”and superiority of tone and
workmanship of the AMER CAN ORGANS
’ place them in the front rank as the best, and
commands higher pIICe than any other reed
instrument in the market. A careful exam-
ination oflhem, in comparison with others,
will quickly show their superiority.

Although an entirely new invention, this article
has already excited the surprise and admiration of
many of the prominent scientific mea ofthc day, and
is renounced, by all who have seen its almost mag-
l opcrlfl’lon, one of the most valuable inventions
of modern limes.
It is a complete clectro silver-plating battery in a
bottle and Is destined to work wonders in every
house old - as by its use all silver-plated ware,
whose plating is worn 06', can be restored to its orig-
Iual beauty, and articles of brass, copper, German
silver, etc, can no instanmnedasly plated with are
silver, at. a cost so trifling that no family use he
wrthout it.
There are thousands of articles in daily use made
ofthe baser metals, which, b an occasional use of
the Silveriue may be ma (2 highly ornamental as
well as useful. I.
It is perhaps needless to saythaf. the Silverine. as
its name implies, is a preparation Of PURE SILVER,
