FAIRFIELD COUNTY ITEMS.
GRANTVILLE.
Eour letters from ROWAYTON,
And four from Frvu MILE Rlvsa,
With a G to hang the eight on, ’
And GRANTVILLE hail forever.
' 'We‘ congratulate, in' the name of the
whole town, our beautiful little suburb on
he banks of Five‘Mile Ever upon its final
mergence from the controversy Which has
set a cloud over it for the past two years.
he unhappy collision 'of opinion in regard
, the name of the place culminated last
'aturday eveningin two antagonistic meet-
‘551 each deSlg'ned to defeat the decision of
he other._ But the good spirit of the Holi-
ays got the best of party feeling, melted
Fllfil'ay petty jealousies, and resulted in a
spontaneous rising of the people in favor of
unity and peace With one content the
two opposing forces merged together into
, one grand mass meeting, and with remark-
.3i1b1e unanimity, agreed upon a mu: name
[for the Poet Ofllco, Depot, School District,
litre. This name, which now only needs to
1he' sanctioned by the proper authOrities to
ibecome legal, expresses by its terseness and
' point the sturdy practical sense of the peo-
ple. It was brought before the meeting at
.the suggestion of Hon. Wm. D. Bishop,
President of the N. Y. & N. H. R. R., and
took at once. “ Grantv1lle was not only
complimentary to the donor of the land for
the Depot, but showed an ardent apprecia-
tion of the gretitest. n’ame which has been
inscribed' 1n modern history Democrat and
Republican vied with each other in eager-
ness to ratify the selection and bound them-
selves in bonds of neighborly unity under
, the tailsmanic name of “Grantville.”~ Many .
' outside people who were interested in the
Depot were present and though not voting,
manifested their warm approval Of the act.
The meeting adjourned with three rousing
cheers for Grantville, etc.
Thus has the tomahawk been buried and
the pipe of peace smoked. Out of the ashes
.. of Rowayton and Five Mile River arises the
' stately name, G'rantville. We trust our
+neighbors 'will be equally zealous to main-
1 min a good name in the higher sense of the
Ivord. Petty strifes and trumpery lawsuits
not only beget ill blood, but spread abroad
11 bad odor. The people have evinced a
commendable degree of enterprise in ,spite
I of variances. The fact that they have
[erected a new church at a cost of between
three and four thousand dollars in the midst
of all their chafings, proves that their hearts.
have not been so much at discord as their
heads. Thus strong, even when divided,
1 their union will develop a three-fold strength
1fo1 every good work. The zeal and talent
:Iwhich this controversy has developed, turn-
'ed into useful channels, will carty the place
1rapiId1y forwarfon the tide of prosperity.
Their public school, numbering already
lInearly one hundred scholars, now divided
'Izand assembling at two different points,
needs to be brought into one grand build-
ing and under the more immediate control
of One governing hand, a bridge spanning
NAG fiver and more firmly the interests and
I I'pathies of the two neighborhoods can-
' ' much longer be delayed, then a public
'is demanded for lectures, concerts, ex-
Dione, festivals, etc.; some kind of mann-
ng, employing hands permanently
rough the year is needed. Young people
are abundant .who are obliged to go out of
'1th place to secure employment. Commu-

I The friends of the 3d M. E. Church,—and

Lorenzo Jones, a colored man, coachman
for S. H. Alden, Esq “was on Christmas day
arraigned before Justice Finch, and bound
over for trial on a charge of assault upOn
Mr. A., with intent to kill. The circum-
stances, as related to us by a gentleman
who took the pains to learn the truth of the
matter, are briefly as follows:
Jones, evidently somewhat' 1n liquor, was
returning from the depot, Thursde eve-
ning, and Mr. A. had occasion to reprimand
'him for his reckless, rapid driving; at
which Jones took offence, swore and threat-
ened furiously, and wound up with strik-
ing Mr. A. on the head with the butt of his
whip. Passing over intermediate details ,of
minor importance, atler reaching home Mr.
A., was sitting in the'family sitting-room,
when Jones appeared in the hall, an army
pistol in each hand, and demanded his wa-
ges and his discharge. Mr. A.‘ of courSe was
exasperated at the' man’s impudence, but
was calm enough to order him to his room,
over the stable, promising to settle w1th him
there : which he soon after did, taking a rc-
ceipIt in fall from Jones ; who nevertheless,
pistol in hand, refused admittance to Mr.
A’s men to take charge Of the stable. In
Spite of J ones’ violence and threats, Mr. fA.
himself and son, went into the, stable, Where
after some angry' words, the negro-leveled
his pistol and fired at Mr. A. who was near
and would have been killedoutright had
he not thrown up the weapon with his
hand, which was blackened with the smoke
of the discharge. A shot from the second
-pistol was avoided in the same way, the
charge passing over Mr. A’s head. The ne-
gro then returned to his room, reloaded his
pistols, and soon after, as Mr. A. left the
stable the villain fiom an upper dodr again
fired both pistols at him, but luckily 'with-
out efl‘ect. Oflicers soon appeared who af-
ter some trouble succeed 1n arresting Jones
and took him away.
Mr. A’s escape from death seems atmost a
miracle. That the negro escaped the, fate
he seemed to court, and which he richly de-
served, is mainly due to the prudence of
Mrs A. and her mother, who concealed Mr.
A's revolver, and firmly refused to produce
it, in spite of his repeated demands that it
tio'n.
The community'is much excited over the
matter, and we trust the negro will get the
réward which his outrageous conduct de-
serves.
The services in the Episcopal Churches
on Christmas Eve., were of an‘ interesting
chi'Iracter. At the Memorial Church an un'
usually attractive musical programme had
been an'nounced,and a vast crowd 'assembed
there. Several hundred person were una-
ble to gain admittance. . The exercises con:
sisted of the regular church servico, the
singing of anthems, and an address by the
Rector. The Canticles a‘nd Psalter were
sung as we always like to hear them sung—
antiphonally, thafis to say by two choirs.
They were adroitly managed and produced
a sublime effect. “Handel‘s Hallelujah Cho-
Shepherds,” “Harkli the herald angels,” and
several other pieces, were said to have been
well rendered, as were the ,Processional and
Recessional Hymns, by the Sunday School
children. Too much praise cannot be
awarded to those ladies and gentlemen who
so kindly gave their services on this occa-
sion, and for the great interest exhibited by
them, all along during the numerous rehear-
sals required. Of the floral and, evergreen
decorations we cannot 'speak too highly.
The font and altar were literally loaded with
flowers furnished by Mrs. S. H. Alden. An
illuminated Stan-and an ingenious effect of
light within the chancel were noticeable
features. The management" of- the decora-
ting was intrusted to Mr. George Jellifl‘e to
whose superior taste and ingenuity the
church 19 largely indebted.
At Christ Church, a finely decorated inte-
rior, good music, a semen by the Rector,
and a large crowd of people were noticed.
Mr. J. M. Pinkney gave an entertainment
at_ his house on Christmas .Eve.—a strictly
juvenile party. Some forty or fifty Iboya '
and girls, between the ages of nine and
fourteen; were invited and at the proper
time treated to a magnificent collation.
Charad'es, music, dancing and a stu'pendu-
ous “Christmas Tree" with presents for
everybody, were the order of the evening.
The affair is said to have cost the host $300.
It was certainly very substantial and will
no doubt be long remembered by the young
people.
Subscriptions to the stock of the Sange-
tuck Valley Railroad have been received
$100, 000 are subscribed a company will be
formed, officers elected and work commen-
ced. '
The question of a Carriage Bridge across
the Saugatuck River at Saugatuck 15 again
agitated. Interested “rues owning land
on the east side of the river, have signified
their intention of giving a portion of the
the Compo Road. The structure our in
erected it is said for less than $10, 000, and
persons stand ready to take the contract for
about $8,000. When completed it will be a
great convenience to people in the vicinity,
and must necessarily enhance the value of
property. ' '
The young ladies of Mrs. John H. Gray’s
school, assisted by some young gentlemen
ment at the house'of W. .Lyon, on Monday
and Tuesday evenings, Dec. .31 and 22,
which were highly enjoyed by those pres-
ent and reflected great credit on the Teach-
er, Mrs. Gray, and all who took part in the
performance.
The anniversary of the Saugatuck Con-
gregational Sunday SchoOl is to be celebra-
ted on Sunday, Jan. 10th. "
A Christmas festival for the children was
held in the Green’s Farms Congregational
Church, on Christmas evening. The Church
was decorated with evergreens, and useful
presents were round on the Chriétmas Tree
for all the children of the Sunday-School.
