E'AmrrELn COUNTY ITEMS

- - Bowayton.
~ Our friends at this place are still stirring
around lively; like the Irishman at Doney-
brook fair, who hit whenever he saw a head
they‘think any thing is better than stagna-
tion, and being overflowing with life and
spirit, (not whiskey) when they are out of
.'work they must bang, away at something.
Seine of our more cold blooded neighbors, at
a distance, think we are quarrelsome but
they must not judgebastily. We are at'least
finding hesithy outlets for out acturtees in
the new public improvements introduced
among Ill, and our present excitement about
‘ name of place,'&c., is only the natural fomen-
tation Attending such things, like the corn-
cob dropt into the barrel of cider. Things
will soon work themselves all bright and we
shall then have the clear time of successful
prosperity.

‘Thomas Guider,the boat builder, has near-
ly completed his fine craft for Hiram Taylor
Esq. She looks moreiike ahandsome Yacht
than a fishing boat, will doubtless be a fast
aaiier as well as a stout sea boat : our oyster-
men are like the pilots in New York hay,
they have some of the handsomest moddled
Vt ssels that can be built and a more generous
hearted set Of fellows than they are cannot
be found. Braviug all sorts of weather, their
life» is one of much toil, uncertainty, risk, and
sometimes of danger. They invest large
scrnesoi money and many years of patient
hibor in their business and have as high
tuned and honorable relationship with each
oil-er, and look as earnestly mail that con-
cerns the welfare of their families, the States
or their fellow men, as any class in our
great republic.

”i Mr. Ryle has pushed forward, the house
he is building for Capt. Lockwood with great
rapidity. '

_Our New Hotel the “Rowayton House" is
looki ng quite cheery. Rows of evergreens
and young elms &c.. have been planted
around it, and out buildings for the shelter-
ing‘of horses, poultry, &.c., are rapidly going
up. Mr. Montgomery, the proprietor looks
the very picture of a good natured landlord.
We are glad to hear that their is to be no
)iun sold on the premises. We dont want
airy more of that sor‘ Of thing hereabouts.

,Our butchers Stall is opened and promises
well. We wish Mr. Scofield success.

.A school meeting was held here last Satur-
day evening to consider feasibility of enlarg-
ing our present School and otherwise in-
creasing its efficencyand usefulness. A large
number of citizens attended and a committee
was appointed consisting of Messrs Dibble,
Peunoyer and Bell, to enquire into the cost
of building an addition to the present school
house, and also of refitting and furnishing
both the old a@ new School rooms. Much
vdluable time was wasted in random talk and
untimely jesting, and the meeting adjourned
to‘meet at the same place fortnight from that
time. If the people are really in earnest in
wishing to see their town advance in intel-
li'g'ehcc and wealth, equal to the times and
the neighboring towns, they must make some
very considerable changes beyond the pres-
ent, twenty years bebind-the-day affairs.
One of the first questions a stranger of char-
acter asks about a locality for a house for his
family, is “What kind of Schools are those
loathe place?" and upon the kind of answer
he receives, depends his purchasing or rent-
ing quarters there. The day when the edu-
cation of our American youth becomes a
secondary affair, or a matter ot'slight consid-
eration with a community, has passed away,
and the people that do not know it can easily
find it out by comparing the price of land
thereabouts will bring with that in more lib-
eral towns but a few miles away.

My; dyspeptic friend “Pickwick” has at-
tra'jctt-d much attention to his place by his
advertisement of last week, but he says there
are no worthy disciples of Tennyson among
them. He says “they are all to worldly
minded to appreciate the great attractions of
his place. I pity poor Pickwick; be has, I
fear, a hard bargain on his hands.

pleted, about the first of J one next, there is
to‘be started another steamboat line between
Stamford and New York, when two boats
will leave Stamford daily, one front the canal
and the other from the present landing.

Mayor Hoffman, of New York, and E. O.
Perrin, addressed the democracy on Satur-
day evening. The Wheeler dr Wilson Band
and a pyrotechnic display helped to draw an
audience.

SrnA'rronD.—A man named Amos Burns,

friends to go and hear him,

Republicans! let it not be said on Wednes-
day night that you have lost a single vote by
neglect ill registering, and on Monday next-
give every cote possible to Obtain by honor-
able means. Work with a will and help out
the majority in the State by the vote in your
town.

cause,——we shall bear a cheering report from

Ridgcfield.

in Ridgcfield, on Wednesday night, April 1.
Of course our friends will avail themselves
of this opportunity of listening to his elo-
quencc.

The democracy, here as elsewhere, are
working with desperation, and the Republi-
cans will have to be up and doing to hold
their own. But if they work with a will they
can increase their majority, and that is what
we want to hear they have done next Mon-
day. Get out every voter, and send us the
result early.

Hon. William D. Kelley, of Philadelphia,

tised for “Thursday evening" should have
read Tuesday ev'ening as above.

Hon. J. W. Bear, of Baltimore, will address
a similar meeting at the Hall, on Friday eve-
ning. These are able speakers and should
command full houses. This is the last week
of" the Spring campaign let the old I-Iall'be
crowded to sufiiocation each night. We hope
to bear next Tuesday morning of a Republi-
can trinmpll in the State. B.

An excellent erecting was held on Tues-
day last, addressed by Gen. Wm. Williams,
oi Indiana.

We call upon our Westport friends to do
their very best to help us win the victory
next Monday. We do not expect a republi-
can majority in Westport, but on the general
result every vote tells. Let the opposition ma-
jority be as small as possible. Work with a
will, and get in every vote. ‘

 

Greenwich.

Brotherhood are to give a Ball on Friday
evening in Tolhert’s Hall. Proceeds to be

Hon. Jacob. H. Eta M. C. of New Hamp-
shire, is to address a Republican meeting on
Friday evening next. Turn out and give
him a rousing reception.

Republicans, stand by each other and
work earnestly for the cause. Do not be dis—
couraged because you have a hard row to
hoe, but work all the harder and reduce the
enemy‘s maiority as much aSypossible. Have
confidence that we are going to redeem the
State, and help us with every cote. Divide
the town into very small, districts, and let
every man work as he has never worked be-
fore. Appoint a strong committee to watch
the registry list and ballot boxes, and de-
mand and insist upon your right to see the
votes fairly counted—a right that is cheer-
fully granted to the opposition in every Re-
publican town. Let us hear a better report
from Greenwich than we had last year.

didates for Representatives, Judge of Pro-
bate and Justices of the Peace, will meet this

The Rev. Dr. Lindsley died in Greenwich,
on the 23d, aged about eighty. He was at
one time pastor of the South Church in Hart-
ford, aiterwards pastor of the Park street
church in Boston. Thence he went to Ohié,
becoming president of Marietta college.—
Some years after he returned to Connecticut,
and he is described as a man of superior abil-
ities, estimable character and great industry,
remarkably continued to his latest years.

SAD OCCURRENCE—While Mr. Abraham
Reynolds and wife were attending the func-
ral of the Rev. Dr. Linsley, on Tuesday last,
a little son about five years old, was playing
amongst some logs piled up on a side hill,
when one of them fell down with him, rolled
upon his neck and broke it, causing instant
death. A little brother who was playing
with him, got the log Off, and'tried to raise
him up, failing to do so, he ran and told a
servant, who repaired to the spot, but found
life extinct. The grief of the affectionate pa-
rents may be better imagined than described.

 

Bridgeport.

Bridgeport, last Monday evening. Major-
Gen. Sickles and Gen. Pleasanton spoke on
Wednesday evening.

the Housatonic Railroad, at the crossing
above the depot, has served the Housatonic
Co. in that. capacity, for 26 years without
losing a single day. The baggage master of
the New Haven road at this station, has
served the company for a period of nineteen
years, without losing a single day from any
cause but sickness, and only two days for
that reason. For twelve years he has not
left his post for even one day‘

The milk train on the Housatonic R. R.
now averages 5,000 quarts of milk sent daily
to New York—Standard.

-—Mr. James Hall, of Salem Centre, West-
chester Co. N. Y., (near l’urdy’s Station)
hung himself, March 20th, in a cow house
connected with his barn. He had been gone
from the house but a very few moments
when his lifeless body was found by his wile.
He owned a large and very valuable farm,
and other property‘ to a large amount. No
cause known.

“THE Swnn'rns'r Tmrtu 1N LIFE" is good
health and good spirits, and if you have
them not, the next best thing is what will
restore bloom to the faded check and hop-
piness to the drooping heart. The great and
sure remedy is Plantation Bitters, which our
physicians recommend to both male and fe-
male patients, as a safe, reliable, agreeable
and cordial stimulant. They contain noth’
ing to disagree with the moat delicate consti-
tution, and have Web golden opinions from
all who have tried them; and probably no
article was ever tried by so many persons.
They elevate the depressed and give strength
to the weak.
