- WESTPORT.
On Wednesday, 30th ult., an interesting
Regatta took place off Cedar Point, West-
port Harbor, and was witnessed from the
shore by a large number of people, besides
many persons in boats who accompanied
the contestants. The race was participated
in by New York business men, and resident
gentlemen in Westport, Norwalk and South-
port, and all are worthy Of high compliment
for skill and good seamanship displayed,and
it is earnestly hoped that future efforts in
the “sailing art” may meet with proper en-
couragement.
The day’s schedule embraced lst, 2d, and
3rd classes. Eight boats entered as follows:
ls'r CLASS.
' Isabel, owned by McCreedy, Westport,
. “ Meeker, Southport.
- 2ND CLASS.
Sada, “ Brear, Saugatuck,
Polly-wag, “ _ Bridgeport,
Maud, “ Rev. J. E. Smith, Westport,
Erin] “ Stevens; SO Norwalk
3RD CLASS. ‘
Whisper, “ Burritt, Saugatuck'
Ripple, “ Biers, Norwalk.
At 11 a. in., the boat; approached the
stil-zc placed 00‘ the “Point.” And as they
came into the wind, their white sails shak-
ing, a lively appearance was presented.
L'itle delay was experienced in starting. At
a given signal each prow was turned in the
direction of the stake-boats in the Sound,
around which and rcturn,a distance of 15
miles, was the feat to be accomplished. For
a limo, quite a breeze blew from the south,
inspiring all with prospects of a good day’s
sport. This died away before reaching the
first stake-boat, remainder of the ground
was traversed 'in the almost entire absence
of wind. occasional showers “dampened”
the ardor of the enthusiastic, and at 12 ni.,
everything bid “fair” for “ foul” during the
afternoon. Without wind, each person
seemed bent on urging his craft forward by
making all possible “ drift-way.” This
proved to be slow work, and the “race” ter-
minated with the following result :—
lst class, Meeker, Southport,
21 class, Polly-wog, Bridgeport,
31 class, Whisper, F. Burritt, Saugatuck
Prizes of Silver Ice Pitcher, Cake Basket
and Tumbler Rack, were, in the evening
awarded as announced.
Last week,we placed the probable quan-
tity of strawberries here, picked in a single
day, at from 4,000,. to 5,000 quarts. By
communication with several heavy grocers
we are enabled to say that our figures fell
farbclow the mark. Three men have pick~
ed on several successive days 3,200 quarts
each, (100 bushels) and it has been not an“
uneommOn occurrence for them to turn out
from 30 to 00 bushels. We feel-safe in say-
in 5;, that 20,000 quarts were picked in West-
. port in a single day.
The glorious 5th was a magnificent day
here. A cloudless sky, cool breeze and
moderate temperature rendered it all we
could wish. The celebration was carried
out as per programme. The great feature
Of the procession was the fantastic display
which excelled in every particular that of
last year. The Milford Cornet Band were
present and added cola! to the ceremonies.
After perambulating the principal streets
the procession halted on the grounds near
the residence of'J. N. Betts,Esq., and listen-
ed to an address by Wilbur Lyon, Esq.,
who was invited to speak on the occasion.
It is proper to make special mention of
the car with 37 little girls dressed to repre-
sent. the various states, also of a fine person-
itication of “Brother Jonathan,” who accom-
panied as a sort of protector to the “unpro-
tected." ‘
No accident happened during the day,
and we believe all enjoyed the festivities to
the fullest extent. PAUL MARKAM.

W A. Oakey Hall, mayor of New York,
and one of the hardest workingmen there,
keeps his health by vigorous horseback rid-
ing. He says : ‘variety and the saddle are
inv means of medicine. I fairly live on
liOrseback, and have three finely trained
saddle horses for alternation. One of them
is a hunter, and can carry me twenty miles
with ease to himself and myself. I often
ride in and out from my country placé, 17
miles away. There is a ‘something’ done to
the brain by horsebacking (not the hard trot
business), akin to the Geneva jeweler’s skill
when he cleans the watch; but what I can-
not diagnose.” '

TAKING ITCOOLLE—Old ’Squirc Hopkins
was a perfect picture of ineekness and sim-
bashfulncss rather than an inherentphysieal
defect. One day a neighbor came to buy a
yoke of oxen of him. The price was named,
and the animals made a satisfactory appear-
ance.
‘ “ Are they breachy ?” asked the buyer.
“ N-n-iiever t-t—troubled me,” was the re-
ply.
The other paid the price and took the
towering passion.
“ Confouiid these critters, ’Squire—there
ain’t no fence that will keep ’em! They
will break through a stone wall, or jump
over the moon, What the dickens made
you tell me they won’t breachy ?”
“ I-I didn’t say n-n-Oo s-sucli a thing."
“Yes you did—you said they never
troubled you.”
“ Oli, w-wall, neighbor,” said the ’Squire,
“I d-don’t let such a th-thing a—as that ’ere
t-t-rOuble me.”
The buyer sloped.

WA boy circus-rider performed the as-
stonishin feat of turning 25 consecutive
somersau is on horse-back in Louisville the»
other day. A dispute having arisen between
him and the manager as to how many he
was capable of turning, the latter promised
him the horse, pad, and bridle with which
he performed the act if he turned 25 times.
After being introduced into the ring, and
performing ahumber of very difficult but
beautiful acts of liorsemanship, he threw
aside the whip and prepared himself for the
trial. Until he completed his tenth somero
sault the crowd remained quiet, when four-
teen, fiftcen, sixteen, and seventeen were-
callcd the most intense interest was mani-
fested, and when he had fairly accomplished
his twenty-fifth somersault the applause was
deafening. Immediately after his great act,
without leaving the back of his steed, which
he had fairly won, he successfully accom-
plished the perilous and dimcult act of turn-
ing five backward back somersanlts, making
thirty in all. The horse and equipments are
valued at two thousand dollars.

[3‘ _A western engineer tells the follow-
ing story about himself : “Once the train
stopped to ivood and water at a small sta-
tion in Indiana. While this operation was
going on I observed two green-looking
countrymen in ‘homespun’ curious] inspec-
ting the locomotive, and occasional y giving
vent to expressions of astonishment. Fin-
ally, one ofthem looked up to me, and said,
Stranger, are this a locomotive?’ ‘Certsino
ly. Didn’t you ever see one before ‘2’ ,‘No,
haven’t never saw afore. Me’n Bill come
down to the station to-night purpose to see
one. Them’s the biler, aint it ?’ ‘Yes, cer-
tainly.’ ‘What yer call that you’re in ?’
‘We call this the cab.’ ‘And this big wheel?”
‘That’s the driving wheel.’ ‘That bi thing
on top is the chimbly, I suppose?’ ‘lgrecise-
ly.’ ‘Be you the engineer wot runs the
machine ‘3’ ‘I am the engineer.’ Bill,’ said
the fellow to his mate, after eyeing me
closely for a few minutes, ‘It don’t take
much of a man to be an engineer, do it 2’

W A rural lawyer whom we shall des-
ignate as Squire Jovial,once had an import-
ant case in a country court, and the decis-
ion depended entirely on the way the jury
would regard the testimony of one lady.
He lost the case, because the fair witness
swore positively to an occurrence which
she had witnessed at the distance of several
rods, although there were several persons
who stood much'nearer than she that saw
nothing whatever of it. The old Squire
looded rather blue when the jury brought in
their verdict, but revenged himself by rising
and telling the court a story of a lady he
once knew, who was very near-sighted, but
always declared her eyesight to be excel-
lent. Accordingly one day a. neighbor
stuck a darning—neeble in thefside of a. barn;
and placing her on the opposite side of the
road, asked herifshc could see it. “Oh,
yes,” replied the lady, “I can see the needle
asy; but whar's the barn ?

WA correspondent tells the best way to
see Niagara :
A hint or two only as to the best points
from which to enjoy the Falls. To see the
rapids stand on Goat Island Bridge, or, bet-
ter, ride to Street’s Mill and sit down close
to the water upon the green sward, and cast
your eye as far as you can'over the expanse
of leaping. foamingbillows. To enjoy the
falls look from Luna Island on the American
waters as they make their dreadful plunge,
or stand near where “Table Rock” once was,
to take in at a glance the majesty of the
Canada Cataract, or,better yet, look up from
sweep with the eye the whole broad glori-
ous expanse of water, broken by the rugged
rocks of Goat Island, but elswhere flooding
with light and splendor the rapt visionof the
beholder, who scarcely needs the babtism of
the jeweled spray, or the arching promise of
the sun-dyed rainbow, to feel himself con-
secrated anew to a higher life.

WiiENEvnn a really valuable article is advertised it
is our pleasure, as well as credit, to make a special
notice of it; and such an article we takeoto be
"Helmhold's Fluid Extract of Buchu." As a curative
in cases of diseases of the kidneys, it is the medicine.
Unlike other ua’eut medicine advertisers, ‘Dr.
HelmbOld freely advertises the names of the ingredi-
ents of his compound, and no regular physician has
yet found fault with it, while it is known that many
such are freely recommending it in cases of the above
named diseases.
There-arc some counterfeits in existence, so parties
purchasing should ct only Helmhold’s. .
Our readers wxll ave noticed an advertisement in
late issues of our paper, which from the generous
amount of Space occupied, and the attractive manner
in which they a car cannot fail of catching the eve of
every reader. elmbold's Extract of Buchu has been
before the public many years, and, although during
that tune hundreds Of advertised medicines have, like
Napoleon, “rose, reigned and fell." llelmbold’s Buchu
has steadily increased in popularity until it has now
become an indespeusible standard remedy. It is' a
thoroughly scientific preparation, and is for sale by
all druggists.
Among the many blah testimonials upon the vii-
tures of (hp above attic e. we find room for the follow-
ing. on 5':

to my 0 inlon about B ha, I would say t at I have

thirty years. I do not think Shem is any form or pre.
paration of it I have not use or kn: WD to be used in
the various diseases where such med cate‘ngeutwould
be indicated. You are aware as well as myself, it has
been used extensively in the various diseases of the
Bladder and Kidneys, and the reputation “has ac-
quired, in my judgment, is warranted by the facts.
I have seen and used as before stated. every form of
Duchu—the owdercd leaves the simple demotion,
tincture, tlul extracts—and I am . not co izant of
any preparation of .that plant at all equa to ours.
Twelve years’ experience ought, I think, to ve me
the right to judge Of its merits, and without rejudice
or normality, I glve yours precedence over allothei-s.

have cured with it and seen cured with it more dis-
