FAIRFIELD COUNTY ITEMS.
Darien
Is making great strides in public and private
enterprises, and this little town bids fair to
become one of the most popular for resi-
dences in the vicinity of New York.
Thopeopic have taken the public build-
ings in hand, and iii a few days the Metho-
dist church will reopen for public worship,
having been repaired and painted without
and within, the interior finished in fresco.
The Congregational Church has also been re-
pai’red and is now being painted witlr excel-
lent taste and skill by Messrs Prowitt of Nor-
walk. ‘
The school houses are receiving the atten-
tion which they deserve, and soon we hope
to see the sovereigns of future years receiv-
ing their education in well lighted, ventila-
ted and tasteful rooms.
Private enterprise has shown itself in the
ayingof the “Itanney” patent sidewalk from
he corner of Sedgwick and Mansfield Ave-
iues to the corner nearly opposite the Post
)fi’ice, a distance of over six hundred feet on
he west side of Noroton Park, extending
rem the depot to l‘Oak Cottage.” It is ai-
0 being laid by Messrs. John Conley and
ohn Heckeritl front of their residences.
A large number of residences arcin course
.1 erection orin contemplation, among the
est of which we may mention those of
Iessrs. Chas. Morclrouse, Chas. Iioyt, Moses
lather, Horace Whitney, Stewart Whitney,
t'ni. Waterbury arid John Waterbury, all
n Prospect Avenue, which by the way, was
it! out in the spring of this year across the
dgc near the Depot, affording beautiful and
irnmanding views of the Sound and sur-
-llnding country. Also, those being erected
r Messrs. Marcus Whitney, Wm. N. Brady,
1'. Beach, late of the N. Y. Sun, and John
ecker, and two stores and dwellings by
13.5. G. Waterbury; in the neighborhood
Noreton station, those of Messrs. Lewis
Clock, F. Brugerhofi‘, Frank. W Ballard,
d Dr. C. IV. Ballard. Some of these new
rcllings will be quite imposing in appear-
ce and cost between twenty and thirty
'iusand dollars.
Of the alterations in Old buildings we have
trcely space to give a notice, except to say
it the improvements on the Lockwood
:i Ballard places, rcwntly purchased by
E. Mead, have put an entirely different as'
:t on things around Noroton station, as
isc who pass liy in the cars will readily
tify.
VILTON.—Thc Fair of Zion‘s Hill, M. E.
urch, on Tuesday and Wednesday even-
s last, were well attended and the pecu-
ry result was quite satisfactory for so
ill a place; something like $130 being
ted by the society.

Seeure a Home.
We would call attention of all wishing to
secure a home, (and what family does not)
to the adv., on our outside of Building lots
for sale on Spring Hill, so called. This plot
of 30 acres is better known, perha ps, as the
high cres. ofland formerly belonging to the
Mott estate. Few citizens ol Norwalk, how-
ever, have a conception of the surpassing
beauty and loveliness of the land and water
views from all parts ofthis property. It has
been recently mapped out by Wrn.R. Smith,
Esq, withavicw to supplying the public
want of 71023203 for the people. The lots are
all cligibly located, and have been cut. tip, so
as to come within the means of every sober,
industrious mechanic and laboring man,
while lots of larger size are provided for
those Of more liberal means. They range
in price from $400 to $5,000. About one
third tip Spring Hill road have already been
taken and we doubt not the balance will
soor. be secured, as no one sees these lots
who is not convinced firstof their beautiful
and healthy situation, and secondly of their
cheapncss. Accommodating terms of ‘pay-
ment are accorded all who wish to make
immediate improvements. The map will
be framed and placed in the Post Of-
ficc in the ccurse of a few days. To
which, and a personal visit to the premises,
the public are invited. One fact can be un-
mistakably and confidently affirmed, and
that is, no mistake can be made in a purchase
ofthcse lots as the land will never be wortir
less. 3142.

and other diseases affecting the muscular system.
The tortures of the Inquisition were scarcely more
excrntiating than that. which Rheumatism Inflicts
uponits victims, and it appears in such a vnrtety of
forms and is so capricious in its effects, that the
steady observation of years is necessary to under-
stand its peculiarities.
To this object the last years otDr. Covel’s life were
directed. During a professtonnl career of over half a
century he directed especial attention to this disease
and its modifications ; and the result of his labors
was the positive rejecting of the old method of
treatment as useless or pernicious, and the introduc-
tion of his celebrated P LLS, composed exclusively
of such Vegetable ingredients as he had proved. by
ex criment, would exercrse a specific and beneficial
in uence in the innumerable cases placed under his
clrarne. .
Th'is great remedy was not: perfected in a day or a
year- ; it was no sudden thought, but the fruit. oflong
study and carefully conducted practical test. New
ingredients were added from time to time as the
symptons of this disease and the philosophy of Its
actions were more clearly understood; until at last.
in the declining years of a useful life, the physician,
philanthropist and christian pastor was enabled to
announce to the world a radical cure for a complaint
which had heretofore defied the skill of the medical
facult .
'l‘hegePills sustain and cherish the animal force

lies of nature in her effort to cast off the discus e
Their medicinal action is direct and specific. It.
reaches the materia-morhus or radix of the disorder,
through all the complications of nerves and fibres in
which it is entrenched, and cxpels from the blood
the febrile rinciple which feeds and spreads and in-
tensifies, w rile it spreads the fatal tendencres of the
malady. _ ,
Such an array of‘ testimony as these Pills have
have called forth from all classes was never volunta-
rily offered in favor of any other medicine. The ca-
ses of care comprehend every stage of Rheumqtism,
whether accompanied by the terrible sensibility of
the arts affected, common in the inflamatoryplruse,
by tile muscular contractions,which upder the victim
of' chronic rheumatism, ahelpless cripple, or by the
ever changing symptons which are the characteris-
115 of this Preteen complaint _ _
The Editor of the Sunday Times, after havrng
himself taken them, and seen their effects on others,
speaks of them in the columns of his papenac fol-
lows :—“Wc have known the most horrible kinds of
Rheumatism to be entirely relieved by Rev. Samuel
Covcl‘s Rheumatic Pills. The cures seeming next to

the most important lines of communication in the
world, as it. is the sour LINK BETWEEN THE PACIFIC
COAST AND rim GREAT INTERIOR BASIN, 0\'Cr which
the immense Over-land travel must pass, and the
Principal Portion of the Main Stem Line be—
tween the Two Oceans.
Its line extends from Sacramento, on the tidal wa-
ters of the Pacific, eastward across the richest and
most populous parts of California, Nevada and Utah,
contigious to all the great Mining Regions of the For
West, and will meet and connect with the roads new
building east of the RockyMountains. About 100
miles are now built, equipped and in running opera-
tion to the srrmrnitof the Sierra Nevada. ”Within a
few days 35 miles, new graded. will be added and
the track carried entirely across the mountains to a
pointin the Great Salt Lake Valley, whence further
progress will be easy and rapid. Iron, materials and
equipment are ready at hand for 300 miles of the road,
and,10,000 nihn are employed in the construction.

passes all previous estimate. The figures for the

and with only the normal ratio of government trans-
portation, and is exclusive of the materials carried
for the further extension of the read.
The Company’s interest liabilities during the same
period were less than $125,000.
Add to this an ever cxpading through traffic and

The Company are authorized to continue their line
eastward until it shall meet and connect with;the
roads new building east of the Rocky Mountain rau-

the entire distance between San Francisco and the
