W All the fore part of Saturday, about
the Bridge, the streets were filled with blind—

New Canaan Railroad.
Saturday was a gala day for New Canaan.
Happening there, by,chance, We observed-
ilic business thoroughfare deserted, and upon
inquiry found that- the whole town had turn-
ell out to a “bee” for the purpose of grading
and dedicating the grounds for their new
railroad depot. It was esteemed an honor to
wheel into line and then wheel gravel, in
which diversement we were indulged to a
moderate extent. We were particularly
gratified by the spirit and unanimity with
which the enterprise of their new railroad
seemed to be espoused by all her leading citi-
zens. Success to the “land that lloweth with
milk and honey,” and boots and shoes.

.......... .

W We are glad to note that President
Isuites is executing a much needed improve-
ment in the .building of a substantial wall
along his street line and elevating the side
walks. A good sewer, so far under ground
as to prevent its being an obstruction ought to
be run through his garden terminating at the
d rick near the coal yard.

it? There are many important repairs
and improvements that should be made about
the Borough, of side and cross walks. There
is a dangerous gutter crossing opposite the
residence of Ben. J. M. Carter, with sundry
modifications or fillings of the walks in front
of his own and Mr. Staats property. Please
MessrsBorotigh officersbrush up a little. We
hope the burdens of your official duty are
not long to be borne and if -you will “ fix up
things" generally—remove the old liberty
pole, and fix up the walks, your memory
shall be made fragrant.

men, for the Riverside Avenue, is every
great improvement upon the original lay Otit
and must cost the town considerably less:—
’l‘ha board have certainly earned the public
gratitude for the improved change of lines.

The Neversink.

This superb steamer continues to make her
regular trips, and despite storms and low
tides make sure connections with the Dan-
hury railroad. No pleasanter mode of get-
ting to New York can be found and we are
glad to see so many passengers rewarding
Capt. Monk for his persevering enterprise.—
Persons can get totheir places of business,

as by the steam and horse cars.

beneficial effect of swelling the tides, so that
a Maine lumber schooner, consigned to Hill

improvement upon what we have been used
to, and will add a creditable feature to that

made was fully discussed in the other lIousq,
and the appropriation passed almost unam-
mously. The committee thought at first
that $100,000 would be enough. But i‘. was
now considered necessary to press forward
the building, and careful estimates showed
that about $150,000was needed. By using
this amount the building could be made
ready for the reception 01200 to 250 patients
by the let of March. The committees were
unanimous in recommending the appropria-
tion. The want was pressing, and there
should be no hesitation in passing the vote.

viding that “eight hours of labor done any

ment of another shall be deemed to he a le-
gal day’s work"—-thc bill to take effect on
the 4th of July. Tabled for printing. The
report is signed by James Gallagher, A. N.
Phelps, Eli D. Weeks, and Samuel Saw yet.

Substitute bill, providing for an exemption
from taxation of $1,000, borrowed from a
savings 1’21an a laborer, and invested in a
homestead. Mr. Storer explained that if a.
laboring man now borrowed a thousand dol-

Board and have his tax :tbatcd in that
amount. )Vliereas, if he borrow it of a sa-
vings bank, he is obliged to pay tax on it for
the second titnc. ithaving been already taxed
in the batik. The design of the committee
had been to adjust this on the grounds of
justice and equtty.

Mr. Thompson thought the law perhaps
rather loosely drawn, as the laborcommittee

DR. J. H. SCHENCK, of Philadelphia, has open-
ed an ofllce on the second floor of No. :5 Hanover
Street. Boston. where he will be professionally every
WEDNESDAY. from it to 3. Every person com-
plaining \vitliConsuuiptipn or any disease leading to
it, is invited to call on film. He gives advice free,
but for a thorough examination with liiilcspirome-
tor the charge is five dollars.

Dr. Schenck can explain to patients very correctly
the stage of their disease, anti how to use his medi-
cincs, namely, his I’ulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills, without the use of the Respiro-
meter; but by it he can tell exactly how farthc lungs
are gone. and what part also ; whether it is Tuber-
culous. Pulmonary,Bronehial orDyspcptic Consump-
tion, or whether it is merely an ulcerated throat and
camrrli, or from Liver Complaint.

His medicines have full directions, so any one can
take them without seeing him. All three of his
medicines are required in nearly every case of lung
disease, for it is impossible to cttrc Consumption un-
less the stomac and liver are kept in order. To get
lungs in a heal g condition the stomach must be
cleansed, and an a ctite for good rich food created,
so as to make goot lood before the lungs will begin
to heal ; their the chills and night sweats will stop,
and the cxpectomtion become f rec and easy.

He keeps a full supply of medicines at his rooms,
which can be had at all times. -

that no remedy is equal to the Exlracl of Sarsapa-
