Fitch’s Home.
EDITORS GAZETTE :—- The Trustees of
Fitch’s Home for Soldiers and Orphans, dc-
sire to present their grateful acknowledg-
ments to the Ladies of the 12th District, cs-
pccially those of Norwalk and Stamford, for
their generous aid furnished so often, and so
liberally, for the little ones at the Home.
By the recunl Fair gotten up by the Ladies
of Norwalk, about $600 were raised, The
ladies of the Soldiers Aid Societies of Siam-
ford and Greenwich are also actively engaged
in furnishing necessary clothing for the ap-
proching winter.
One hundred dollars or more have recent-
l y been appropriated by each of these Soci-
eties for this purposc. The ladies of Norwalk
and Stamford have proved themselves firm
iiicnds of the institution by their generous
contributions in itsbeiiali, began as soon as
there were any children in the Home to need
them, and continued almost uninterrtipiedly
ii) the present time
But notwithstanding his generous sympa-
ll-y and help from tlli .adics, the Institution
is at present greatlt in need of funds. The
Treasurer, J osepz. B. Hoyt, continues to pay
me bills for the necessary supplies, although
flee treasury is largely overdrawn.
The Institution has, through the liberality
of Mr. Fitch, Joseph B. Hoyt, and two oth-
US of the Trustees, a permanent fund, yield-
ing an annual income of aiew hundred dol—
;.is. The State aids in the support of some
inc children under a certain age, and Nor-
“ alk and Greenwich have, also made appro-
priations, which aid materially in supporting
iiic children from their respective towns.
But the amounts derived fromthesc vari- 1
hits sources, fall far below what is necessary
IMF the current expenses of the Institution.—
To meet this large deficiency theTrustees
earnestly appeal to the liberality of a gener-
nus public.
There have been or more than two years;
past, and are now in the Home, nearlv 40
children. They are the children or Fathers
who have fallen as soldiers in our recent Na-
. I» and struggle against rebellion These fath-

The school in the Institution'which all the
children attend, is conducted by the Matron,
.llias Davis, and is in its discipline and in-
stinction of a very high order. We trust
the friends of these orphans, who have hith-
erto aided in their support, will increase their
inl'll contributions and persuade others to in-
terest themselves in this good work.

ii lot will imitate the example of Stamford
arid Norwalk. These towns have recently
g.vcn the Home substantial aid by Concerts
ghten up for this special purpose. Cannot
other towns, in this, or some other way, aid
the Trustees in their efforts, and sec to it

niiiers, who are the proper subjects of its
b;n:iactions shall be abundantly provided

The Coming Fair.
Tire high and permanent fence aroundthe
Fair Grounds is completed. The Ticket of-
ficc and main entrance gate are now being
put in order. The Track is graded and only
needs to be packed and surfaced. Tire Ex~
hibitron Hall is nearly completed and will
be light, airy and convenient. Tire wisdom
of a permanent location is made manifest in
all these arrangements, which hitherto have
been of the most temporary character. For
the-first time, the Society can now pledge
both security from pillage and protection
from the elements for costly fabrics, and ar-
ticles of utility and art. The public and the
Society are certainly very greatly indebted to
President Camp for his energy in pushing
forward the work.

hand, which is a guarantee that all things
will be done in order. We are to be visited
on Wednesday, by Gov. English, Maj. Gen.
Russell, Brig. Gen. S. W. Kellogg, and sun

The New Bank Building.
Archritect Inslee, who has left so many
traces of his good taste and professional
skill in, and about Norwalk, has just com-
pleted the “crown piece” of his architectural
genius in the New Bank Building now being
erected on the site of the old Bailey Block.
The front is of Connecticut Red Sand Stone
and the West side of Philadelphia Brick and
sand stone window caps and liutels. The
whole is surmounted with a Mansard or
French roof and will constitute, when com-
pleted, the finest building in Norwalk. The
building committee have here prepared a
monument more creditable to themselves
and. one that will inspire a more grateful re-
membrance from those Coming after us,than
all the granite and marble that can be piled
above their graves. That these gentlemen
may be held up to the public commendation
and gratitude, we give their names :—
S. E. Olmstead, Henry I. Hoyt
Wm. S. Lockwood, J. W. Hubbell,
Chas. Osborne. ‘

Now that it is settled that no clock is to
be put in the new Depot Cupola, we suggest
that a subscription be raised for the purpose
of having a first-class Clock placed in the

will be the tallest spire in town and from its
prominence and unobstructed position on

-Beyond the Mississippi.
Albert D. Richardson, one of the best of
descriptive writers, and author of “The Field,
the Dungeon and Escape" which had so
large a run a few years ago, has been putting
his experience of the Great West into Book
form under the above title. He is well
adapted to write up the far West, having
spent the greater part of his life in traversing
its wilds and prairies; he has been across it
in every direction, several times with Kit
Carson, once with Horace Greely, and lately
with Speaker Colfax’s party. He also gives
his experience in the early Kansas troubles,
he at that time having acquired some celeb-
rity as the mysterious and ubiquitous Tribune
correspondent. He claims to give a com-
plete history of the New States and Territo-
ies through to the Ocean. If is a large book
of 572 pages with over 200 illustrations by
such such artists‘ as Bierstadt, Nest, Waud,
and others. It is published by the Ameri-
can Publishing Company of Hartford, and is
sold only by subscription. Mr. Balcb, the
Agent of the Company is now canvassing
Norwalk and vicinity for the sale of the book
and informs us that he is meeting with won-
derful success. It is said to be selling the
best of any book recently published.

Norwalk Shirt Manufactory.
In another column will be observed a dis-
solution advertisement announcing the re-
tirement of Mr. Henry I. Hoyt from the firm
and personal management of the above Nor-
walk institution. In thus retiring, we feel
that something more than a mere legal an-
nouncement is due Mr. Hoyt. Among the
many manufacturing hives of industry lo-
cated in Norwalk, it must be conceded that
not one has filled the special mission of this
establishment. While other factories have
opened wide their doors to all corners, and
have blessed all classes and grades of socie-
ty by paying money for labor, is has been
the peculiar characteristic of this establish-
ment and the special effort of Mr. Hoyt, to
furnish a select and genteel occupation to
munity, of refinement and culture who need
and desire the pecuniary returns of their la-
bor yet who instinctively shrink from indis-
criminate association with ruder factory
hands of all nationalities. Thus from its be-
ginning,,-has this establishment proved an
industrial seminary, where labor has been
made honorable and attractive to young fe-
males and where the poorest girl in the vil-
lage, if but worthy, might easily earn a com—
petcnce for herself, and as has often been the
case, for a decrepid father, widowed mother
and helpless younger brothers and sisters. 0c-
cupation here, has always been made as gen-
teel for girls as“teaching”clsewhere, and no
one can begin to compute the advantages to
the local prosperity of our village, our shop-
keepers, house owners, churches and socie-
ty generally, which have resulted from this
nobly conducted enterprise. ,
It would not become us to enumerate the
hundreds Of noble wives and mothers of
happy households, here and elsewhere,
graduates of this establishment, but their
names are among the most honored and
cherished of our community. ‘ , 3 '
We well recall the event of our having ac-
companied the Hon. Thomas H. Benton, a
few. months prior to his death, in a visit to
this manufactory, and the gratification and
deep impression made upon his mind. Here‘
.he saw several hundred girls, all attired with
scrupulous neatness, their eyes beaming
with intelligence, while their busy fingers
proved their industry in the scores Of Savings
Bank Books soon after exhibited to the.
Senatorial Nestor’s wondering gaze. One
girl, we remember, Was supporting a broth-
er in college, another had something like a
thousand dollars of earnings at interest,
while many more furnished the entire sup-
port of their parent’s families.
We know we but express a popular sense
of gratitude to Mr. Hoyt, in his retirement,
and can only add our own wish for a joyous
and sunny descent down life’s western hill-
slope,'to one 'who has been so emphatically
a public benefactor.
The works will be hereafter conducted un-
der the personal supervision of the junior
Mr. Morison. .

CONTINUATION OF EDITORIAL LETTER.
It is laid to the charge of the eccentric
Beecher, that upon being halted in his bug-
gy, and catechised by one of his church el-
ders upon the impropriety of a minister dri-
ving a “fast horse,” this man of God drew
up his reins and retortcd, “My dear christ-
ian brother,—time is money,and more, —it is
one of God’s most precious gifts to man, I
can’t waste a moment-g-o-l-a-n-g i” And
away the steed flew at a 2.40 gait, as much
delighted with gowing fast, ashis driver was
to have him. The real ethics of cultivating
speed in horses, is only justly opposed by
the rowdy black-guardian: and bfutality so
often associated therewith. The facts are
that one horse can go a mile in three min-
utes easier than another can in four, and so
long as the possession of rare powers of
speed in the horse is not made the cause of
gambling, rudeness and cruelty, there can be
no more evil in agood man riding fast in his
own buggy than in a railroad car. ' It is with
this conviction that we rejoice to see “good
men” and gentlemen and ladies in the high-
est sense, endeavroing to rescue our Horse
Shows and Agricultural Fairs from the low
and groveling associations with which they
have too often been disgraced. At Hmpden
Park this has been successfully accomplish-
ed, and if it can be done here, it may and
should be done elsewhere. We. write more
at length on this subject than we should,
were not our own County Horse and Cattle
Show so soon to follow, at Norwalk: We
hope to see unusual pains taken to bring to-
gether on that occasion, the very best family
teams, draft horses, gentlemen‘s driving hor-
ses and trailers, (yes, trotters,) that our coun-
ty affords, and then we hope is see commit-
tees, as we are sure we shall, with sense
enough to discriminate, in the bestowal of
premiums, between a draught horse before a
duty and a racer under the saddle. Our hu-
man needs are various anda benificent Crea-
tor has wisely given diversified qualities in
the brute servants of man for these necessities.
We hope to see not only our men, but our
women and children fiilied with an admira-
tion’oi all the noble qualities and develop-
ments of this the noblest of God’s brutes. In-
deed, we would deem it a painful neglect in
the education of any child at! to be encour-
aged in a love for the Horse. If a taste for
the fine arts is commendable ; if painting
and statuary should fill the youthful mind
with ideals of beauty, in how much larger
proportion should a living, moving some],
like the Horse, instinct with beauty and ac-
tion ; with eyes beming with intense expres-
sion; with nerves and siucws all aglow with
a more than human sympathy and affection
for his master,—t:io often a ritual one—
iuspire more fervent admiration and indeed,
love, than inanimate art ? Go on then with
your shows and as you gather in the autum-
nal months at your Agricultural Fairs, let
the presence of the Horse, in his highest
development, inspire you and your children
with thankfulness to the All Wise Creator
for this inestimable blessing. With such
teachings, you will soon cease to regard the
possession ofa good,or fast horse, as equivo-
cal morality, nor need you be shocked even
though the “village person" be seen riding
through the sir-refs at a pace faster than a
solemn walk. For once, we thank the Mas-
sachusetts people for doing at much towards
elevating the popular regard for the Horse
and making his exhibition not only respect-
able but in all respects enjoyable and com-
mendable.
Leaving the Horse show for other matters,
let us suggest to those, who have never tried
it, the delights of a week’s recreation, behind
ones own horse, and driving through the
country, from town to town, observing the
peculiarities of sections and people, as you
afforenpbn’s— journey of twenty-five milgs,
and» the same or more distance after dinner.
'If necessary to reach a particular village for
Hotel accommodation, this distance may be
variedlfive or ten miles either way. When
' inot. in a hurry and, bent on recreation iio
amount 'of railroad or steamei'ti‘avel will
equiii this “Old fashioned way.” The ride
from Springfield to Hartford, twenty-six
miles, down either bank of the silvery Con-
’ncéticut, is one of special enjoyment. The
Agriculture of the rural districts, is so inter-
spersed and blended with its manufacturing
villages that, with the surpassing beauty of
the lands topography, few as ronianlic drives
England. .
Theprincipal farming product, We are sor-
ry.to say, is Tobacco. The only apology for
its raising we could obtain, was that “it paid
reel .” The soil is of alight and quick red
sand, and seems peculiarly well adapted for
the grdwtb and perfection of this abomin-
able weed.
Dining at Hartford, we drove to Meriden,
eighteen miles, on the old turnpike road to
New Haven, where we halted at the Byxbee
House for the night. The proprietors of this
new and spacious Hotel, denominated the
“Byxbee Brothers,” are from Norwalk, and
like their brothers at South Norwalk, can
“keep a hotel." The scenery below Hart-
for is less attractive and the land much poor-
er, although here and there Were pretentious
patches of Tobacco. The fact that we put
all our cigars and whiskey into horses, may
account in a measure for the instinctive ha-
tred and disgust we have for the vile weed,
and so these fields of broad-leaved plants
have no such charm to our eye, as tassel-
ed corn, blooming buckwheat, or rounded
yellow pumpkins inspire, and we could wish
that the world were rid of the nuisance of
tobacco, even though many nervous bus-
bands should lose their only solace.
At'Meriden we were also most hospitably
like his self-made fortune, is princely, and
whose spirit of enterprise has given a world-
wide celebrity to the manufacturing char-
acter of this young and growing city. He
showed us through his extensive Balmoral
Skirt factory (said to be the finest factory in
New England, if not in the country),
where these necessary women’s garments are
made by the millions, and prov'ing beyond"
cavil the old time proverb, that “petticoats
rule the world."' We here met Our ever ge-
nial clerical friend, Rev. Mr. Woeliey, who,
true to his zealous nature, we found deeply
interested in everything that appertains to
the welfare of the “pleasant place" in which
“his lines have fallen.” ‘
From Meriden to New Haven is a com-
paratively- uninteresting ride, but the East
and West Rock ranges are full in view and
when nearing the City of Elms‘tlf’e romantic
little village of Whitneyvilie, the beautiful
vista opening up the winding salt marsh
chanels towards East Haven all Stretching
before the eager eye,well repay one for what-
ever of dreariness he may have encountered
behind him. ‘
From New Haven, bomeward, is encoun-
tered one succession of villages, neat farm
cottages and palatial country residences.“
The old rickety Stratford bridge still stands
and creeks and is rather more dangerous than
formerly, if that be po'Ssible. At Bridgeport
we were most hospitably and comfortably
entertained at the “Sterling House,” by that
Prince of Hotel-keepers, “Mine Host Wil-
son.” Witli the road from Bridgeport to
Norwalk, all our readers are familiar. Yet
how few realize what a charming iido‘it is
from the “Queen City" hither. Few richer
agricultural sections can be found, than that
, Of Fairfield, while the diversification of hills
and dalcs with a constant water view, render
the tide one of abiding interest. , '
“Home again ;" we can but reiterate what
we have so often written beforequ all our
rambling,both here and o'er thewater,wc have
never beheld any locality half so lovely in all
the rich gifts and beauties of nature, where
there is such a happy, even poetic blending
of hill, plain, woods, waters and islands,and-
where the future promises so cel’tnin a growth
in all that enrichs and cnnobles a people.

the “Monitors” of Waterbury, came off on
the grounds of the latter club at Waterbury,
on Saturday, September 7th,resulthig in we-

The playing on both sides was sharp and
quick; more especially we notice the fielding
of'White, Gaunt and Bronson of the “Moni-

of the “Alerts,” each marking their play by
several splendid fiy catches on the side of
the “Alerts.” The pitching and catching was
very effective, and all that could be desired
by either side. The Umpire was prompt

satisfaction to all but a few outsiders who
seemed to think that the “Monitors” must
win. We append the Score :—

SCHENCK’S MAN DRAKE PILL.
A Certain Cure for Diseased Liver and the
many Dangerous Maladies which are caused
by a morbid condition of that organ.
T0 give the public a clear understandin Of the
mode in which SCHENCK‘S Mandra c Pills
produce these wonderful efi‘octs which are attested by
thousands of reliable witnesses, we present a brief .
DESCRIPTION OF THE HUMAN LIVER
and its fimctions. which will make the operation of
this popular medicine perceptible to every man’s un-
demanding.
The liver is sup lied with blood vessels, nerves
and absorbsnts. no of its obvious rises is to se-
crete and prepare the bile. It likewise filters the
blood and separates that fluid ii'om all impurities.
How indispensably necessary to health is the vapor
performance of tIIlS function i Ifthe liver is
ca, it cannot purify the blood, and if that is sent
back through the lungs, brain and other parts. in a
morbid condition, it must cause jaundice, hilious-
ness, obstruction of the kidneys, ravel'and many
other complaints more or less pain ul and dangerous
but the least of them quite enough to make a man
sick and uncomfortab c, and unfit for tho perform-
ance of any of the duties of life. This unhealthy state
or the system very often ends in pulmonary con-
sumption. .
The circulation of the blood is conducted in this
manner -— The heart sends the vital current down
through the arteries 5 it passes through the flesh ta-
king up all impurities in its progress; tiren the
stream of blood flows backward through the veins,
and passes to the liver to be purified. _ t is im sai-
ble to cure consumption, scrot'ula, or scarce y any
other kind of ulceration while that important organ,
the liver, is diseased. It is for that reason that ‘ reg-
ular physicians" rarely cure consumption. They
nsuall y begin their treatment with the use of some
cough medicine, the basis of which is morphia or
opium in some shape, which locks up the liver in-
stead ot‘ relaxing the secretions giving a tone to the
stomach and producing a healthy flow of bile. Dr.
Schenck s
Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed flame, and Man-
drake Pills
will;strengthen the system purify the blood, and ri-
pen and heal ulcers on the rings. _ .
Avolnme would be required, to give a brief ac-
count of the remarkable cures performer! by Dr.
Sclrenck’s medicines, viz. Pulnronic Syrup, Seaweed
Tonic, and Mandrake Pills—lull of which are ac-
