‘ Mr. Lafayette Giles, a young mason of this
town, has purchased a lot in Rowayton for
building. He has contracted to plaster the
M. E. church and several new dwellings. A
blacksmith and a shoe maker would each
have just as good a chance. Mechanics,
there is room for you at Rowayto n.

No one should fail to hear Mr. Pogson, at
Mansfield Hall, on Wednesday evening. He.
speaks upon a subject with which he is thor-

diences. This gathering, if successful, will
be an epoch in the history of Darien, and
every effort will be made to make it a most
interesting occasion. Popular songs will be
sung and refreshments provided for those
who wish them.

an Canaan, March 215i, 1868.
Mussns. Entronss—AmOdel surprise par-
ty, one that made glad the hearts of an aged
couple, occurred in this place yesterday. I
have been requested by the party surprised
to send you a brief account of it, and I do so
most cheerfully, hoping and trusting it may
prove an incentive to like noble acts on the
part of others. The occasion on which this
surprise occurred, happens to but few, it be-
flng no less than the fifty-seventh anniversa-
ry oi the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Ebenezer
Hoyt, they having been married March 20th,
1811.
Mr. Hoyt is now in his 80th year, and for
some two or three years has been an invalid.
During the war of 1812'he served in the
“Coast Guard,” two months at Bridgeport,
Conn. His father was in the army during
the entire struggle ior Independence, and at
one tlme was a prisoner five months in the
notorious “Sugar House” in New York. '
Mrs. Hoyt is now in the 75th year of her
Sign, and already feels very sensibly that she
‘is'fiist approaching her last resting place.
Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt little thought- as they
woke on Friday morning of the surprise
that was in store for them that day. Hardly
were they up before they were reminded
that it was the anniversary of their mar-
riage, by a wedding cake that was brought
in. On the top of this cake was a paper on
which was traced several verses of a poem.
While discussing surprise No. 1, they dis_
cavered surprise No. 2 at their door, in the
shape of a lead of wood, all sawed, ready
for use. Should the farmer who brought it,
live to celel rate the fifty-seventh anniversa-
fiot his marriage, may his friends turn out
in lull force and give him, as great a surprise
as he did, this couple by this present, and
may we be there to see it—but we don’t ex-
~ pect to be unless he hurries up, for it is now
more than fifty-seven years in the future.—
Soou another farmer came along with pork,
flour, butter, etc. Things went on in this
way until afternoon, when the ladies made a
gram; rush. These ladies were loaded dowu
with baskets and bundles, containing grocer-
ies, dry goods, fruit, cake, etc.,besides a good
supply of “greenbacks.” A more complete
and at the same time substantial surprise,
seldom falls to the lot of mortals to witness.
Mr.’ and Mrs. Hoyt were so cheered to see
that so many of their friends and neighbors
not only remembered it was the anniversa-
thusiastic meeting here Friday: evening,
which was addressed by Senator Thaycr of
Nebraska, and Gen. W. H. Gibson of- Ohio.
Senator Tliayei' spoke an hour and a half,
and was listened to attentively throughout.
Gen. Gibson followed, and for two hours
commanded he closest atfintion of his au-
dience. His speech was very eloquent and
stirring, and was received with the greatest
enthusiasm. The meeting broke up near
midnight, willivchecr after cheer, and with a
feeling of the greatest confidence that the
Republicans will carry the State.

work we may yet hope to see the Rcr'ibli-

place the town on the right side. Darieu has

THE FORTY‘SECOND ANNIVERSARY on THE
AMERICAN SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION, IN THE:
ACADEMY on MUSIC-The festivities were
presided over by Chief Justice Chase, who
made an admirable speech. The Academy
was crowded with a most appreciative audi-
ence, and a chorus of six hundred cliil cii
sang with inspiring effect; with their clear,
fresh voices, supported by a superb reed Or-
gan, which was so unusually fine that it de-
serves especial notice. We have never heard
such a beautiful musical effect from so coni-
paratively a small instrument. We learn
from the programme that it was one of the
celebrated AMERICAN Oceans, manufactured
by S. D. do H. W. Smith of Boston, and can
appreciate the high praise which every one
accords them, as they are among the very
finest in America. Smith’s Organs haven
purity and Volume of tone really astonishing.
for their size. One of our first musicians
said to us, “the American Organs of Messrs.
Smith are the most; perfect and beautiful I
have ever seen.” We. agree with him, and
having examined the instruments carefully,
must give them unreserved praise.
