irnesday, March 31 1868. 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. Rown'ron. Barton. jHon. W. P. Frye. of Maine, will address a Republican meeting, on Thursday evening. Go and hear him. :Our friends here are unusually wide awake, and we look for an unusually good report from them next Monday. Stamford. The Republican caucus to nominate Rep- renentutives and Justices, is to be held on Wednesday evening. - The immense and enthusiastic audience which gathered in Seely’a Hall, on Monday night, augured well for the Unioir victory which we have so much reason to anticipate. Gov. Harriman, of New Hampshire, deliver- ed a telling speech. The next meeting, 80th inst., is to be addressed by Gen. Gibson of:~ Ohio. On Saturday evening, April 4th, Hon.

The Board of Registration meet on Wed- nesday for the last time to make new voters. The democracy held a meeting on Thurs- day evening last, addressed by Dan. Voor- bees. ‘ .The body of Andrew Peck, of Stamford, was found SunIiay 22d inst., in a stuble,hor- ribly mangled by a pair of horses under which he had fallen. He leaves a wife and four children—Advocate. Mr. Daniel Hickey has sold a building lot, 109 feet front by 170 deep to Mr. Dominick D.-»Hart for 3900. Mr. James Conroy, Jr., has sold about five acres of land to Minot and Mary Ann Scofield, for $1,400. Mr. Orin Blake and wife, of Stamford,, have sold 45. acres of land to Wm. H. Lockwood, of Greenwich, for $3,500. Michael Mackey and wife, of Stamford, have sold Phint as T. Jacobs, two acres of land for $200. - Five fires have recently been discovered in time to prevent much damage. . We‘ learn that after the new canal is com- 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, of Old Milford, committed suicide last week Monday, by getting on the railroad track and permitting himself to be run over by a freight train. He was was subject to fits of insanity. —-Bfanda-rd. Danbnry. _ The Republicans hold their caucus for nominating Representatives and Justices on Saturday evening, April 4th. Gov. Harriman, of New Hampshire, is to speak at Concert Hall, on Wednesday eve- ning, April 1st. Ex-Vice President Hanni- bal Hamblin, is to speak, in the same place, on Friday evening. The democracy held a mass meeting on Wednesday night last, addressed by Messrs- Benedict, Perrin and Barrett. Foster Brother‘s planing mill, we are glad to see, is in the midst of an extensive enlarge- ment. A large addition is going up on the east side, two stories high. The walk 0: Main street from Centre to Turner street is to be of stone and six feet wide-akfersom’an. L. G. Knapp‘s straw paper manufactory, in Brookfleld, was totally destroyed by fire Wednesday night, about 11 o’clock. The toss to about $5,000, and no insurance. Wilton. The Republicans of the town hold their caucus for nominating Representatives and Justices of the. Peace, at the Town House, on Friday evening lfixt. The Republicans had a good meeting or. Friday evening of last week at the Town House. Brig.-Gen. E. M. Lee, of Guilford, made a stirring speech. On Thursday eve- ning, April 2d, another meeting is to be held at the Town Hall, which is to be addressed by Hon. JACOB H. ELA, member of Congress from New Hampshire. Get your democratic 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.

The Col. is an excellent speaker, and we bespeak for him a full house. Hon. Jacob H. Eta, of New Hampshire, will speak in New Canaan Saturday evening. If our friends work as well as usual,—aud we know they will not falter in the good cause,——we shall bear a cheering report from New Canaan, next Monday. Ridgcfield. Gen. H. D. Washburnfiof Indiana, speaks 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. Biennium—Gen. E. M. Lee will speak in Bedding, April 20. West-port. General H. D. Washburn, of Indiana, and Hon. William D. Kelley, of Philadelphia, will address the citizens of Westport, at Bett‘s Hall, this (Tuesday) evening. The no- tice in the “Standard" of this meeting adver- 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. The General Spear Circle oi the Fenian Brotherhood are to give a Ball on Friday evening in Tolhert’s Hall. Proceeds to be devoted to uniforms. 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. A REPUBLICAN Caucus to nominate can didates for Representatives, Judge of Pro- bate and Justices of the Peace, will meet this (Tuesday) evenino'. 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. Carl Shurz addressed the Germans of Bridgeport, last Monday evening. Major- Gen. Sickles and Gen. Pleasanton spoke on Wednesday evening. Senator Doolittle addressed the democracy on Thursday evening last. The Rubber Works in East Bridgeport, are soon to be put into running operation again soon, on hose, piano cloths and other articles. , The number of new voters added to the lists in this city thi98pring, is 373. James Gillick,'the faithful switch tender for 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.
