Enrronsz~0n Wednesday, Aug. 20th, the Third Annual “Gathering of the Andrews Family,” convened at the old homestead-mow the property of Thomas Andrews—in Wild Cat District. . There were nearly one hundred of the descendants and invged guests present, representing four gener- ations — children, grand-children, great-grandchil- dren, and great-great—gran d-ehildren—descendants of Eden and Deborah Andrews, the immediate descen- dants of the original settlers of what is now the town of Bethe). _ The day was the finest that could have been selected; the sun was shaded by thin clouds, which rendered it. cool and very pleasant for an out-door gathering. The company began to assemble about 10 o’clock, a. m., rind MI 3, o’clock the tables were ready; load- ed and fairly groaning under the weight of good things, and soon the party were seated, and a blessing being pronounced by Mr. Thomas Andrews, active operations were immediately fcomni'enced by the hun- gry party. Judging from the way things disapp‘cd in our immediate vicinity, the most ample justice was done to the collation. - After dinner, the assembly was called to order by Mr. Charles Andrews, of Danbury, and Mr. Joel Tay— lor was called upon to address the meeting, which was very lengthy but interesting, especially to the older members, as it brought back to the minds the ”scenes of other days.” In his remarks he said that the voungcr stock did not inherit the spirit, energy, and perseverance of the ancestors of the family, and at: the close of his speech Mr. Charles Andrews arose to correct the statement, and he showed conclusively that this was an error on the part of Mr. Taylor. He said, “ If there is a young man in the county desirious to made his mark in the world, let_hiru secure for him- self au Andrews girl, a d the first step on the “ladder of fame" had been fiched and the rest was easy enough; and the young lady who wanted to procure a true, loving,§persevering husband, adescendant of the Andrews family was just the one she wanted." His remarks were readily seconded by many of both sexes, who knew by experience, that this was trite. We observed many of both sexes-unmarricd—casting longing glances upon each other during the course of his remarks, as much as to say.,“wc don’t mind trying the experiment.” At about 4 o’clock the meeting broke up, and all voted that this gathering was a decided success, and if their lives were spared, they wouldbc present at the fourth gathering in 1669. W. BRIDGEPORT. Cirarlcs Waterbury, over twelve years Superintend- ‘cnt of the Naugatuck Railroad, died in Bridgeport, on Thursday night, of cancerous afl‘ection of the lungs.

Ris escape from death was most remarkable. On Sunday, as a lady was leaving Trinity Church, in this city, her hoopskirt suddenly gave way and drop- ped into the aisle.

One had traveled two thousand two hundred miles expressly to attend this meeting, coming from his station in the new territory of Wyoming, five hurr- drcd miles west of the Missouri river. —The new Vermont Senate is unanimous- ly Republican.

On account of this deficiency, music written ,in chords, or in a connected style, cannot be satisfactorily executed, as the long notes re- sult in diminucndos where they should be sustained. The taste for the Organ and or- chestral style of music is being rapidly devel- oped, and widely diffused—and the time is approaching, when the demand for this sus- tained style of music will supersede the pres- ent Piano compositions. There are no in- struments capable of such fine expression in this style of music as the AMERICAN ORGANS, manufactured by Messrs. S. D. & H. W. Smith, of Boston. There delicacy and va- riety in the voicing renders thorn susceptible of beautiful orhestral effects, by the skillful use of the tremolo and the improved knee swell, while the deep manual sub-bass which is added to the new styles, gives the closest resemblance to the pipe organ—Boston Journal. 2t34 _ ‘«.D-.—-_- A Permanent Tome, Every one at times feels the necessity of something to tone up the system depressed by mental'or bodily exhaustion.

Corner of Main and West Streets, South Norwalk Conn. WILCOX’S Patent Fruit Jar. The Most Complete Jar Made Its Superior Advantages. Finer—Its completeness in its arrangements and combinations as a pcrfcclfruit prescrvcr. Sucrose—If; is provided with a divided Ring, which is easily attached to or detached from the Neck of the Jar, and secured by a Ball. THIRD—When the band and boil are applied, its combinations form -a complete bundle, thereby dis- pensing with all lifters or other appliances, which have hitherto been in use for removing the Jar from boiling water. .Foun-ru—It is constructed with a Glass Cover, which sets over the neck of. the Jar, resting 'on an elastic band on the outer surface of the shoulder, thus pre- venting any flavor being imparted to the fruit by me- tnlic or poisonous substances. This advantage alone eudcrs its superiority such as to bring it into imme- iatc and general use with the public. Full directions for-cooking with each Jar. For sale by the Case or Dozen. o. F.

Although this road is built with great rapidity, the work is thor- oughly done, and is pronounced by the United States Commissioners to bc first-class in every respect, be- forcit is accepted, and before any bonds can be issued upon it. Rupidlty and excellence of construction have been secured by a complete division of lobor. and by dis- tributing the twenty thousand men employed along the line for long distances at once. It is now proba- ble that the Whole Line to the Pacific will is completed in 1869. The Company have ample means of which the Gov- ernment grants the rightof way, and all necessary timber and other materials found along the line of its operations; also 12,800 acres of land to the mile, taken in alternate sections on each side of the road; also United States Thirty-year Bonds, amounting to from 310,000 to 848,000 per mile, according to the dlfllcul- ties to be surmounted on the various sections to be built, for which it takes 0. second mortgage as securi- ty, and it is expected that. not only the interest, but the principal amount may be paid in services render- cd by the Company in transporting troops, mails, &c. THE EARNINGS OF THE UNION PACIFIC AILROAD, from its Way or LocalBusincss only du- g the year ending June 30th, 1868, amounted to ov- (‘1' Four Million Dollars, which after paying expenses was much more than sufficient to pay the interest upon its Bonds. These earnings are no indication of the vast through traffic that must follow the opening of the line to the Pacif- ic, but they certainly prove that FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS upon such property, costing nearly three times their amount, Are Entirely Secure. The Union Pacific Bonds run thirty years, are for $1,000 each, and have coupons attached. They hear an- nual interest,payable on the first days of January and July at the Company’s Office in the City of New York at the rate of six per cent in gold. The princip is payable in gold at maturity. The price is 102, d at the present rate of gold, they pay 9. liberal income on their cost. ‘ A very important consideration in determining the value of these bonds is the length of lime they have to run. ‘ It is well known that along bond always commands a much higher price than a short one. It is safe to assume that during the next: thirty years, the rate of interest in the United States will decline as it: has done in Europe, and we have a right to expect: that such six per cent. securities as these will be held at as high a premium as those of this Government, which in 1857 were bought in at. from 20 to 23 per cent.ab0ve par. The export demand alone may produce this re- sult, and as the issue of a private» corporation, they are beyond the reach of politicil action. " The Company believe that their Bonds at the pres- ent rate, are the cheapest security in the market, and the right to advance the price at any time is reserved.
