Regi- ment at Danbury on Saturday,was a decid- edly pleasant affair. A heavy train went up the Danbury road, and many drove into Danbury from adjoining towns, until the number presentmust have been nearly or quite three hundred. On the arrival of the train from Nor-walk, the boys were received and put through the following well prepar- ed programme, after having been formally received at the Depot by the Committee of Arrangements, Warden and Burgesses, Bar-~ tram 65 Fanton Cornet Band and CO. G. Sth Rrgt. C. N. G. After the welcome by the Warden, th'y marched to Concert Hall for the business meeting of the Association.

The line of march was up Main to Frank liu street, Franklin to Rose, down Rose to Rivosr, River to New, through New, Deer Hill, Wooster and Main to South, on South to 'l‘own Hill, up Town Hill and Liberty to Main, thence down to the place of outer tainment. Those living-3n the line of march express-w ed their Welcome by the display of flags and othtr devices aopropriate to the ceca- siou. he dinner was provided i. the large ten!" of the Ridgcfield Agricultural Society, erected in the Turner House yard._ ‘ '1 It was everything the. boys could desif’c in that line and reflects especial credit upcfi those citizens of Danbury who contributed the “supplies” so bountifizllypnd also to the band of noble women who seemed to labm incessantly to promote, by the most assidu- ous attentions, the comfort and happiness 0:? the boys. Like the dinner-in the days ofmir- aclcs,atter all were filled, a multitude migh have been fed from the fragments gathered up. The boys, with their u ivcs, children. sw hearts, however, paid the feasta more more practical compliment than we can do. At the Hall, the meeting was called to or» der by Col._Allen, President of the Associa- tion, and after prayer the Secretary read the lonstitution and records of the two pre- vious meetings for the benefit of members pscscnt who had never before attended. It was then voted that 'an assessment of one dollar per annum be laid upon the members with a view to incidental CXPCDS es. The President then announced that the time for choosing officers fOr the ensuim vear, had arrived, and that no time migh‘ be wasted, desired to state beforehand the: he could not again be a candidate for the position, owing to his residence out of ‘ the State. An informal ballot was then taken for President of the Association, which resulted in a very large plurality vote for Maj. W. L. Hubhell of Bridgeport, whereupon his now— ination, was, by acclamation pronounced unanimous. Maj. H. hercupon took the platform and in a terse and neat little SPC'. cb,accepted'thc honor and duties Ofthc position. Three cheers were then given with a will for the new President and three more for the old. Following the selection of President. up- on rcport of a committee, Capts. Hobbi- and Kellogg were elected Vice-President: Ser’gt. Chas. F. Loomis, Rec. Secretary ; Lieut. Geo. C. Peck, Corresponding Secre- tary ; Albert W. Peck, Treasurer ; Col Henry Allen and Sorgt. T. Donovan, Emc- utive committee. After the business meeting at Concert Hall the line again reformed and did the programme, as above. The sun was hot and the roads were exceflingly dusty, yet cheered by the crowds of citizens who from doors, windows, yards and balconies, c'ieer- ed and greeted the veterans, they went through the march with enthusiasm. The Wheeler & Wilson Band, several members of which belonged to and served with the 17th in the field, did most accepta- ble duty for the Regiment.while the citizens of Danbury had secured the Bartram 65 Fanton Band which acquitted itself to the delight of all. The lidies, children and in- vited guests ofthe Regiment were supplied .with carriages for line of march, one of the most touching features of which was a four horse team, drawing an open band wagon, filled with the children ofdet eased soldiers, under the charge of the Danbury Female uardian Society. These children were the objects of special attraction all along the line and on the counter marches were vocif- erously cheered by the boys in line; and the Engine 00’s., while flags and kcrchiets were waved with touchingcnerg; by the citizens. There could not have been less than five thousand people thronging the streets and all in all, it was a notable gala day in. Dan- bury. ' The Dinner, served under the tent, was a most bountiful and substantial repast' for the now tired veterans, and full justice we. done it by at least five hundred eager guests. At its conclusion the following vote' was carried with a “tiger” by the boys':—— ' Ii‘geolved, That we tender to the citizens 0‘ Danbury our heartfelt thanks and acknowl- eel edgments for the very kind reception ex» tended to this Association on this the occa- sion of our 8d Annual, and that the oeca~ sion wiil ever be pleasantly remembered by those who are the recipients of their kind- - ness and bountcous hospitalitics. The most notable if not commendable thing of the whole transaction was, the meeting together of such a company Of Olli- cers, privates, &c., in America, with 3. din- ner included, and! not a single set speech made on the occasion; The reason, doubt- less, was that before dinner the boys hadn’t the time, and after dinner they were too full for utterance. .We cannot omit also to men tion the entire good behavior and sobriety of all the boys assembled. Indeed, the gathering combined most of the best ele— ‘ments of the o'.d 17th, always noted for its good character and gentility of its members. We do not believe a similar meeting hear ta- ken place, where old comrades greeting each other for the first time perhaps, since escaping together the vortex of death, or worse, some southern prison hell, and where so little like intoxication was visible. We congratulate the boys upon this special feature of good behavior, and the citizens of Danbury upon their successful and most creditable reception of our County I'Cgir ment. Next year, we learn, they are inv1t~ ed to‘hold their meeting at Stamford, and my similar 3ood cheer attend them there, “06W m. The Coming Fair.

The “scribe” has favored us with an account to print this week. It will appear in our next. Below we give some extracts, from newspapers, relating to the trip :— The Nantucket Mirror speaks of the club as follows ;—This club is composed almost entirely of the business men of South Nor- walk; appear this season in a new and neat uniform, and made a fine appearance as they marched through the streets. They gave a hop at the Atlantic Hall, on Thurs- day evening, which was attended by a large number of citizens. They also gave one of their popular concerts last evening‘m the Athenaeum. Hall, for the benefit of the Grand Army of the Republic of this town. We did not see their varied and interresting programme; but feel assured that their pub- lic entertainment was a success. This of- fort on the part of these gallant gentlemen was very liberal.” - The Vineyard Gazette speaks Of their vis- it to Edgartown, as follows :'—-“The Nep- tune club were here on Monday, and in the evening in connection with the Hutchinson Family, gave a free concert in the Town Hall, which was one of the grandest feasts ever heard in this town. The Neptunes are as worthy a company of gentlemen as ever visited our shores, and their presmt visit have added hosts of friends and acquaint- auces. We would not forget to thankthem for the serenade they were pleased to re- member us with, and as the year goes spin- ning around, we hope annually to have the pleasure of meeting the members under like auspicious circumstances.” The N. Y. Tn'bune correspondent writing from the Wesleyan Grove Camp Meeting says : , - “Saturday was a red-letter day. The “Neptune Club” of young tars, from Nor- walk, Conn, arrived forty strong, greatly to the delight of the ladies and the lovers of music. The Hutchinsons, re-cnforce‘d to the number of eight, assisted by the “N eptuue Quartette” and the Rev. Mr. Angier of Ed- gartown, serenaded the grove early on Sat- urday morning. County st. Park was crowd- ed tO hear them sing at “Sunnyside Cot- tage,” and they gave the listening thous- ands, in fine style,“A Cry from Macedonia," ‘The Millennium,’ & ‘ltoom Enough for All.’ At this point Gen. Butler and Senator Wil- son appeared, and the multitude joined in the “John Brown Chorus” with a will and the usual cheers. “Do Your Best,” and “The Lord is my Shepherd,” were well ren- dered by the Neptune boys. Miss Ward, sweetly sang “N 0W I lay me down to Sleep;” and the concert closed with that hearty old song, “Good Old Jacob.” A benediction of applause followed the serenade.- In the afternoon we accompanied a select party consisting of Senator Wilson, Gov. Claflin, Gen. Butler, Ben Wade, Judge Wade, Judge Russell, the Hutchinsons, and a duet of the Neptunes to the school-ship Massachusetts. General Butler and Judge' Russell made a few remarks to the boys, 'and the musicians sang “The Wanderer,” “ Good Old Days of Yore,” &c. After ex- amining the boys and the vessel, the party returned. On Sunday, about 25,000 people were in and near the camp, part listening to waves and strolling on the blufl's, but many thous- and paying reverent heed to the preaching of the word. Among the latter were Sena- tor Spragzie and his family, Judge Bra ton, Gov. Paddleford, and General Butler. ear- ty songs were furnished by the Hutchinsons, the Neptunes, and Hilm. o The Allerton Iron Works. The New York Evening Mail of the 27th inst, in a letter descriptive of a visit to the Naugatuck Valley, under the headings, “One of the Happy Vallies of New Eng. land,” “Connecticut Bee—Hives,” &c., c.n— cludes with the following sketch : “Although aware of the fame of the Naugatuck Valley before our visit, as the whereabouts of several of the leading indus- tries ot'thc country, we were, we confess, not cognizant ofthe fact that within a couple of years had sprung into existence there an establishment for the manufacture of steam fire engines and apparatus, which has al- ready proved a formidable rival to the first manufacturies of these machines. The Al- lcrton IronManufacturing Company was in- corporated abouts. year ago, the year prior being occupied by its projectors in making experiments. Their first engine was built for the fire department of this city, and was when, such was the satisfacton iven, four others have been built for the etropolitan. Department and one for the Brooklyn De- partment. Another was lately delivered to the firemen of Phillipsburg, Penn, and there is .onc now ready for shipment for Wooster, Ohio. Several others are now in process of construction at the works, near the railroad depot where we visited. The company employ about fifty skilled mechan- ics, besides carriage builders, painters, and others whose services are needed in turning out the perfect machine, which is unques- tionably of the most beautiful model sim- plicity of construction, and excellent .finish that we have seen. It is claimed for the engine that while it does as much work as any yet constructed, it affords unusual facili- ties to the engineer to do his work, is much lighter than any on inc of equal power, and costs less money. 11 an article on this on- gine in the columns Of a contemporary, we find the very best expression of the value of this machine, where it is characterized as be- ing “a huge soul in a small body.” The engines, according to finish, cost from $4,000 to $5,000. The all but-unexampled success of (his young firm, of which, by—the-by, Mr. Geo. M. Allcrton, of No. 205 Broadway, was one of th e founders, and is now a director, has been such as to necessiate the construct ion of larger works. This they are obout to do at South Norwalk, where .they have purchased the lot upon which stood the well-known hat factory of Soloman & Sey- mour, burned down some time ago. It is near the railroad depot, like that at N auga- tuck. Here they are, about to commence building extensive foundries, pattern works, machine shops, and carriage bulding and painting shops.

' M Letters from the People. Enrrons GAZETTE :—Tomorrow—-(Wed- nesday)—cnds one of the pleasantcst vaca- tions it has ever been our privilege to enjoy. When we left our home in Meriden four weeks ago, it was in our minds to visit a short time with our friends in this'town, and then take a trip to other places of pop- ular resort. But when we got here and felt the quiet and restful influences that were thrown around us in the society of our friends of other days, the warm welcomes and cordial greetings which met us on every hand; the bracing air that was home to us from the sound and buy; the pleasant drives through your avenues and down on the shore to Keysers, Wilsons, Roton, Greg— ory‘s and other points of interest—(toward which Mr. Scofield by his courtescv, fine horses. elegant carriages and very reasona- ble terms, contributed not a little)—thc_ charm of the delightful groves down on the beach, and a thousand and one other things chained us to this spot and caused us to gladly relinqufli the dust and heat Of rail- road traveling, the bustle, dress, vanity and soul-sickening follies of fashionable water- ing places (to say nothing of their excess of wickedness) and settle down in this most delightful seaport, with its abundant oppor~ tunitics for sailing, fishing, clam bakes and recreation, with real satisfaction. Never before has Norwalk seemed so pleasant as this summer; nor the people, more agreea- ble and cordial. Not for» one moment have we regretted that we tarried here in prefor- cnce to going other places. We come for rest and recreation, and we have found both ; aha the question has been continually thrust upon our minds, by the number and variety of your charming advantagq, why Norwalk has not become. more popular as a summer resort, being only an hour and three-quar- ters ride by rail, and but a trifle longer by boat from New York? It may be that your hotel accommodations have not b'cen inviting and sufficient. This cannot now be said against the Hotel at South Norwalk, under its new and gentlemanly propriotor,- Mr. Foote, who is cleaning, painting and put ting his house in first-class order. If we may judge of the house by the ,mau, we think it will be a good one. We are also indebted to Capt. Hoyt of the firm of Hoyt Brothers, for privileges upon the water. In fact, we feel like saying good things or everybody. We have heard excellent preach- ing. in Congregational, Methodist and Bap- tist churches, (and we know brother Wood- rufi‘ well enough to know that we should have heard good preaching from him if op- portunity had permitted us to hear him.) We have fed upon good food, and slept upon good beds ; we have not been troubled with mosquitos, nor with the fever and a'gue; we have called upon all the friends that our time would allow, but not upon half the number that we wanted to ; and sincerely hope that those we missed will not feel that we meant to give them the slip. In a word, we have had a glorious vacation; do not think that we have made our friends twice glad; feel rested and are now going back to our homes with fresh courage and better pulse to work for Jesus than we had four weeks ago. J. J. WOOLLEY. l ——-——.—4. \Vnrsnnvmu, Aug. 25th, 1869. In your last issue I see that “G" has answered “ Taxman" in regard to working the road near this beautiful and lovely reteeat, thuslg,—“ Wotan—An answer which must have caused the dry bones of sages and philosophers to have rattled in th eir graves. This then is brobably the reason that the nearer the roads are to a whiskey shop the better the roads are worked: This accounts for such good roads as you see near the Depot, while we who live where there are no whiskey mills_have the roads worked by water5 Now water is good in Its place, nothing better, but: in working roads I find it is too searching; it takes away all of the dirt, and leaves all the rocks and cobbles bare, which soon become bruised and dis- figured. "G" also says the road has been good until the last rain. Now who is to be the judge ‘I I have traveled over this road every day for more than a your past, and I must say as to driving faster than a walk it: has been dangerous; as to this road being worked the last year. not one shovel full of dirt has been put upon it. As to having gutters stopped, there are no gutters to be stopped. “ G” is endeav- oring to make people believe that justice has been done by the 82,000 of money which is paid by people in this vicinity. As “G" wisely says " the road needs working now!” EAGLE. . 9.»- How THE Emu IS LIT ur.-—-It is stated that the whole line of this road is soon to be illuminated at night by the newly discov- ered electric light. The plan is more novel than any before dreamed of, even by the wildest visionary. From New York City to Buffalo and Dunkirk it is designed to make the line one unbroken line of light, by the application of the electric light to each 10- comotive, and stationary lights at the fer- ries, in the Bergen Tunnel,and at all of the dangerous curves along the route. The ar— rangementsi‘or manufacturing the electric lamps are already completed by Mr. E. C. Morse who has the matter in charge. Mr. Morse claims several discoveries and im- provements in connection with the electric light, among which may be mentioned a self sustaining battery ; a device for making the carbon points used to give the electric point, and an ingenious arrangement by which the electricty to run the lamps will be collected from the friction of the wheels as_the train is in motion. Two lamps will be used for lighting Bergen Tunnel, with one in the middle, as the tunnel is not straight, but curves. Other lamps will then be stationed at each end of the Pavonia Ferry, which will throw a broad bell of light across the North River every night to guide the traveler safe to his home in the metropolis. These will,it is said,be so intense that on the darkest foggy night there will‘ be no danger of collision on. the water any more than in the daytime. —Bufl'alo 00m Adv —+¢. .

Every housekeeper knows that during the heated term, meats, butter, fruits, etc., must be kept cool,but do not know how best to attain the desired end. To such we‘would say that the Zero Refrigerator, patent- ed by Mr. A. M. Lesley, has been before the public for many years, and is highly recommended by pro« fessors, hotel keepers, and heads of families. The ice keeps longer in this than any other rcfi-igerator; the food does not come in contact with the ice itself, and the box is cool without being damp. These are a few of its advantages. Mr. Lesley has recently invented what hecalls a “wine and milk cooler.” It is really a miniature refrigerator, is portable, and for use in bed-rooms, where it is desirable to have milk, water. etc., cool in the hottes ights, it is indispensable Mr. Lesley’s place is at o. 605 Sixth Avenue, near Thirty-sixth Street—Home Journal.

My grandmother and several aunts and cousins died of consumption. My mother hada cancer; I was taken with a bad cough which had affected me IS months; 12 months after my cough commenced, cau- cers began in both breasts, which grew rapidly for six months, hard cancerous lumps in both breasts. In this state I called on you-with but little hope, as both my lungs were afi‘ectcd, and a cancer in each breast. Consumption and cancer seemed to struggle which would destroy me first. I had sufi‘ered much from dyspepsia. Your remedies, with the concentra- ted cancer mineral spriug water have wholly cured me. I have been perfectly well for two months; no couch or expectoration; no swelling in my breasts; vno yspepsia; no pain or suffering. Everywhere I am strong and able to perform all my duties. I took medicines four months. Thankfully yours. - (Signed) SananJ. EMERSON. All diseases successfully treated bylcttcr. «er—0’ -- -— — Sclrcnck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills will cure Con- sumption, Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, if taken according to directions. They are all three to be ta- ken at the same time. They cleanse the stomach, rc- lax the liver and put it to work; then the appetite becomes good; the food digests and makes good blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; the dis- eased matter ripens in the lungs, and the patient out- grows the disease and gets well. This is the only way to cure consumption. To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the treat- ment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pulmonic Svrup ripcus the morbid matter in the lungs, nature throws it off by an easy expectoratiou, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a slight cough will throw it 30‘, 1and the patient has rest and the lungs begin to ca . To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills must. be freely used to cleasc the stomach and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the food will make good blood. _ Schcnck’s Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, rc- moving all obstructions, relax the ducts of the gall bladder, the bile starts freely,and the-liver is soon re- lieved; the stools will show what the Pills can do: nothing has ever been invented except calomel‘ (a deadly poison which is very dangerous to use unless with great care,)tbat will unlock the all bladder and start the secretions of the liver like chenck’s Man- drake Pills. Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent. causes of Consumption. Schenck’s Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant and alternative, and the alkali in the Seaweed, which this preparation is made of, assists the stomach to throw out the gastricjuice to dissolve the food with the Pul- monic Syrup, and it is made into good blood without fermentation or scoring in the stomach. The great reason why physicians do not cure Con- sumption is, they try to do too much; they give med- icine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to sto night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they orange the whole digestive powers, locking in the secretions and eventuafiy the patient sinks and ies. Dr, Schenck, in his treatment, does not try to stop the cough ntghtsweuts, chills or fever. Remove the cause, and they will all stop of their own accord. No one can be cured of Consump on, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Canker, lcerated Throat, un- less the liver and stomach are made healthy. If a person has consumption, of course the lungs in some way are diseased, either tubercles, abscesses, bronchial irritation, pleura, adhesion or the Inn 5 are a mass of inflammation and fuel decaying. In such cases what must. be done. It is not only the [an s that are wasting, but it is the whole body; '1‘ e stomach and liver ~ have lost their power to make blood out of food. Now the only chance is to take Dr. Schenck’s three medicines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach, the patient will be in to want food, it will digest easilglaud make good load; then the patient beg us to go in flesh, and as soon as the body begins to grow, the lungs commence to heal up, and the patient gets fleshy and well. Thls is the only \vg‘v’ to cure consum tion. lien there is no in disease and only Liver Com- lalnt and D pepsin, cheuck’s Seaweed Tonic and landrake P‘ ls are sufficient, without. the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills freely in all bil- ions complaints, as they are perfectly harmless. Dr. Schenek, who has enjoyedunintcrrupted health for many years past, and now weighs 225 ounds, was wasted away ton. mere skeleton in the cry last stage of Pulmonary Consumption, his physicians pro- nounced his case hopeless and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured bv the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery many thousands slmllary atlllctcd have used Dr. Schenck’s reparations with the same remarkable success. Ful directions accompany each making it. not absolutely necessary to personally see Dr. Schcnck, unless patients wish their Inn exam- ined, and for this purpose he is professional y at: his Principal Ofllce Philadelphia, every Saturday, where all letters for advice must be addressed.
