TAIBLILLD COUNTY ITEMS.
GRANTVILLE.
A peep into this wide-awake quarter of
our town is always refreshing. A We know
of no more beautiful drive, than down the
Wilson road where the air is loaded with
the perfume of wild-wood buds and bios-'"
some—thence southwesterly, across the hills
which command a view of every variety of
charming landscape,—thence northerly, par-
allel with the Five Mile River to the new
residence of L. H..Bigelow, Esq., and east-
erly, over Roton Hill and Flax Hill, home;
——the whole drive occupying about one hour.
We wish, by the way, that our worthy High-
way Superintendent could be induced to
make this little circuit, to see how admirably
the roads have been neglected
Not‘havi’ng heard from our neighbors in
the south-west for some time; we last week
gave a glance at their budding village, which
has been newly christened in honor of the
modern pater patriaa who'is “ first in war
and first in peace}
We found 'the “ Montgomery lilouse’r in
new bands and bustling with activity pre-
paratory to the Summer campaign. Mr. Si-
las C. Smith, the new proprietor, is a New
York Caterer Of high reputation, and seems
. determined ‘to make this a first-class Sum-
mer Boarding House. He proposes to add
a. story to the building, erect a Mansard root,
and otherwise modernize the‘house. There
is no 'more attractive resort along the Sound,
and we wish success to the proprietor.
Mr. (Superintendent) Hoyt will probably
not be behind in helping the growth of this
promising village.‘ New trains will, no
doubt, be stopped at the Station during the
Summer. Among others,-—an evening train
down hem Norwalk to accommodate the
numerous mechanics who are choosing their
homes in that locality.
The faithful old Julia, Captain Lockwood,
has plied between Grantville and New York
without interruption, the entire winter, and.
carries height for a wide country round.
Messrs. .Thomes and Rile are busier than
ever at their canning establishment, prepar-
ing .for their annual onslaught upon the
most popular vegetable now in Christen--
. dome-the lucious tomato. This year, they
. arc to add sweet corn and other vegetables,
and when Winter sets in—Why not oysters f
Both churches are, apparently, in a flour-
ishing condition. The Baptists still enjoy
the ministrations of the Rev. Joseph Ballard,
of East Avenue, and the Methodists have
secured for another year, the labors of‘Rev.
Garret Haulenbeck of Beatty street, who
was recently ordained Deacon by the N. Y.
E. Conference. Services in both churches
are held every Sabbath, at the same hours,
morning and evening, and Sunday Schools
in the afternoon. Our Grantville neighbors
are evidently a church-going people.
The Sons of Temperance which wereor-
gsnized a few months ago, are rapidly in-
creasing in numbers and bid fair to exert a
‘ healthful influence, particularly upon the
young men in the place.
We notice the foundations going up for a '
considerable addition to the School House
ot Grantville, more than doubling its pres-
ent capacity. “MORE ROOM FOR SCHOLARS”
seems to be the cry all over the‘town—
thanksto a benevolent school-law. ‘
Among other improvements, we observed
Mr. Henry Chasmar grading and preparing
the ground for his new residence—to be
built this season. Mr. Alphonso Dibble has
remodeled and repainted his old store, which
. he now occupies, his business having in-
creased so as to demand more room than
his former premises afi‘orded.
Mr. Hiram Taylor, an old and esteemed
resident of the place, while working on his
oyster ground last Friday morning, was run
into by the steamer Nellie White, and barely
escaped drowning. The air was densely
thick with fog and the boat was under full
head of steam at the time. Mr. Taylor saw
her pointing toward him and shouted with
all his might; but although.his voice was
heard on the islands around, the steamer
was deaf and struck his'skilf before {he en-
gine was scarcely stopped. Mr. Taylor'
barely caught hold of the paddles before his
shattered boat, which was heavily loaded
with oysters, went down—and climbing up
- into the wheel-house, Was saved. , *

NEW CAN AAN
‘ The local event of the week has been the
very pleasing entertainment given In the
Town House, Wednesday and Thursday
evenings, by the ladies of the Congregation-
al church. Among those who took promi-
nent parts in the entertainment. was Mr.
and Miss Johnstone, of New York, Miss
Raymond, and the Misses Hoyt, of New Ca-
naan, and four members of the celebrated
“Old Folks” company.

Soldiers Monument.
An effort has been made during .the past
year to procure head stones, by public sub-
scriptions,'V for the graves of such soldiers
as are unproyided with them. The com-
mittee who had charge 'of the subscription
lists, met with little or no success, except at
South Norwalk, therefore the effort was
postponed for the present.
Having given much thought to this sub-
ject, we believe that, for many reasons, it
would be better to erect a suitable monu-
ment in some cemetery or other proper spot:
We know of one place, which, to our mind,
is a desirable 'one for this purpose. We be-
lieve the owners would gladly donate. it .to
the town for this object. It is a place that
requires very little expense to make it a
beautiful spot for a monument: it is already
adorned with young and thrifty elms; and
citizens in its vicinity would attend to the
flowers with which the grounds might be
supplied : it is a triangular plot with a road
on each side, all of them much frequented
and from one of which, Main street, it would
tell its history to the greater part of our
traveling public We refer to the plot known
as the “old Meeker place,” corner of Main
street and North avenue. L.

‘ 'rrm LOBBY.
It is conceded that there was never, with-
in the history of Connecticuthgislation, so
numerous and so formidable a lobby force
as has been spawned upon the present Leg-
islature by the New York & New Haven
Railroad Corporation, for the pure and un-
selfish purpose of defeating the wishes of
the people along its entire line, for a compe-
ting road. This state of things has called
forth the following cogent and dignified ar-
ticle from the Hartford Post. It cannot fail
to commend itself to every right-minded
man in the State, and we are sure will be
more than approved by the importun'ed and
badgered members. The point comparing
the member .to ajuror. is forcibly and truth-
fully put. How wouid a member of Con-
gress look, for instance, creeping behind the '
jurybox and button-holing for a verdict he
had been paid to procure. Most men will
deem the present exhibition at _ Hartford
made by the entire Republican Congression-
al Delegation, as not far different. But .to
the leader of the Post:
“ That there should be what is called a
“Lobby,” or “ Third House" around every
General Assembly seems to have become an
to look upon it as a necessa evil, and are,
on thewhole, much incline to fraternize
With the “_ good fellows” who compose it,
depending upomthemfonmosLof. thejollity
and fun of the session. Well,it being grant-
ed that we must have a lobby, would. it not
be a good thing to have some sort of limita-
tion put upon it ?- Is it a good thing to have,
during the session of the Legislature, hang-
ing around the lobbies and balls of the State
House, haunting the hotels, and loafing
about the bar-rooms, a'swarm of persons
.whose sole occupation is button-holing mem-
bers upon questions of legislation whidi
those members are as much under oath to
hear and decide impartially, as ever any ju-
ror was to fairly try a cause 7 Is it a ood
thin ? Are these persons ve valuab e to
the Legislature or the State 1’ 5 their influ-
ence upon legislation benificent and health-_
ful? Leaving out of this question entirely
the lamentable fact that every Legislature in
the land has its lobby; that ongress has its
own, gathered fl'om the ends of the conti-
nent, and that lobbies and legislatures seem
as inseparable as pilot-fish "and shark—the
simple question is, do these un-sworn and
irresponsible traffickers in votes and .,influ-
ence, affect favorably the atmosphere of leg-
islation ? . _
Is the system which generates them pro-
' motive of good morals or public justice?
Are the ends of truth and right, better an-
'sWered for their presence here i
It will not be denied that within certain-
limits there is a legitimate field of ractice
for attornies before the Le 'slature. hear-
ings before committees it s proper for attor-
nies to appear and represent the interests in
whose behalf they are retained. There they
' may examine witnesses and be heard in ar-
guments upon the merits of cases, as is right
and reasonable. But does not their duty—
does not in fact their privilege ‘stop there?
.Is there any more proprie In their button-
holing members of the Legislature privately
upon their schemes and projects than in la:
boring in the same way with a jury? What’s
the difi‘erenee in the two cases? It strikes
us there is as great impropriety in the one as
in the other. And . yet there are found
in the lobby of every legislature—we pre-
same there will be in this—men who make
no pretence of appearing as attornies, and
never are heard before committees, but who
may have with members. .
In most cases, the members themselves do
not understand the arrangement, and have
no suspicion that their friends in the lobby
are trading off their votes; they would be
shocked and disgusted if they knew that
they were looked upon only as lay figuers,
whose votes were put in the market, and
bought and sold—for it really amounts to
that and nothing less. It is easy to see, how-
ever, that it‘ any member so venal, the medi-
ation of these lobby men gives him a safe
and easy market. Such a lobby as this
taints the good name of the Assembly and
every member of it, and brings disgrace
upon the state. 4 '
It is an evil; an .evil that seems to be
growing eve year. With‘the increase of
special legis ation, the multiplication of
mammoth corporations, the consoli ation of
capital In‘large companies, and the general
drift to monopolies in- everything, there is
more and more of a tendency each year to
