FAIBFIELD COUNTY ITEMS.
WESTPORT
Building movers have been engaged du-
ring the past week in fulfiling their con-
tract with the First National Bank. It is
estimated that five weeks will be required in
preparing a site for the foundation of the
new building. The new structure will be
built of brick; the first story, flout, to be
entirely of iron. The window sils and caps
to be of iron, also. Six months are needed
' to complete the work, and when finished, it
will compare favorably with anything of the
kind in Fairfield County. ' >
The bridge at Saugatuck is so far advanc-
ed that we can see our way across it telem-
bly well. The ' draw fiinisbed and awaits
the piers. If the remaining portion of the
Work is carried out in style to correspond
with that referred to, we shall have to travel
a long way to find its equal in beauty.
Why can we not have things in style “P“
town. . . '
Mr. George Jellifi‘e has formed a co-part—
ncrsbip with Charles Chapman, for the pur-
pose of erecting a Saw Mill. Wesport is
prolific in establishments Of that kind, just‘
now. . A dam has been built Which will‘af-
ford a fall of 36 feet. The water from this
is to be turned on to an overshot‘wheel 24
feet in diameter. The carriage-way will
accommodate logs 50 feet long and the sup-
ply of water is good for Div months in the
‘ year. The mill situation is about a half
mile east from Mr. Chapman’s residence, is
easy of access, and the facilities ofi‘ered are
equal to any in town. '
Next to Glam Bakes, Fisk Chowder parties,
are to be esteemed as the most sensible and
enjoyable of recreations. We accompanied
one, a short time since, and had thought ita
suf-‘fifish’bnt indulgence for the summer.
B it no, “let us now have peace” is set aside
and a great “clam”or raised to get up anoth-
pr excursion. Whether there is inspiration
derived from the fumes of the cook-pot, or
magic charms connected with good cigars,
and good stories, smoked and told while re-
clining beneath the shades at Curtis’ dock.
we scarcely know certain it is, there is fas-
cination somewhere, and, if all are agreed
let us try it on again, and 'that right,
speedily. - -
A race of peculiar character took place in
Westport, recently, so funny in its termina-
tion that we believe an account of it will
prove interesting. The weather being fine,
and the good in good condition, the affair
was witnessed by a very select number of,
spectators. The race was for a purse of—’
dollars, play or pay, with drinks for the en-
tire party ; open to horses of all ages, to
carry 200 pounds, with the usual allowance
for mares and geldings, distance, about one-
half mile, starting from Gray’s Hotel to
church of Holy Trinity, from thence to
Bett’s corner, thence down Main street to
Hotel again. Entrance fee—dollars, same
to be added to purse, two entries were made
as follows :
Dan Connolly entered S. M. Dollywood-
cock, 21 years old, sired by Killdare, by im-
ported Scotch Highlander. Her dam was a
full blooded Messenger mare, by Geek of
the Rock, by imported Diomed, who was
full brotherto American Eclipse. ,
George Sherman entered Br. 0. Slap
Jack, three years old, sired H. R. Tread-
well’s Hambletonian, dam by distant rela-
tive of Adelgiza. .
Previous to the start, and while the pools
were selling, it was evident that gouging
would be practiced so soon as the contest-
ants were out of sight; to prevent this, per-
sons were stationed all along the line of
route, to watéh every movement.
After several ineffectual attempts the word
go was given, and Off they started. -Dolly
soon taking lead by a length, and Slap gal-
loping to keep up. Passing the church,
Slap went up and took sides with Dolly and
they made the quarter pole head and head,
Down the back stretch they continued to
run side by side, but as they reached Bctts’
corner Slap had his head and shoulders in
advance. , Making the turn the mare forced
a slight advance, andthey ran that way well
down the homestretch, when Dolly made a
splendid burst, and going up, passed her
adversary and led to the end of the half
mile. She was hailed with chee'rs as
she came to the scratch, four and one half
lengths ahead.
The second heat was unlike the first, in
that there was so much delay in starting,
and Sherman galloped his horse the entire
distance. Dolly maintained a square trot
to the end and notwithstanding the dodge
of Sherman, came in the winner by six
lengths, having made the half mile in the
the unprecedented time of 1 min15%seconds. '
The race was declared won by Connolley.
who took the stakes, and called on Sherman
to treat as per agreement. On hiairefusal t6
do so, Dan; with a magnimity which it was
pleasant to witness, generously performed
that duty himself, and now declares that
Dolly cannot be bought lgamyman’s money
for less than $1,500. -

THE NOVELTY
IS THE ONLY WRINGER THAT HAS THE
Patent Flange Cog-Wheels
ON BOTH ENDS OF THE ROLLS. .
The cogs on one end of a roll are set relatively iii-.-
rwm those on the other and q! the Sm ROLL, virtu-
ally forming a
Doonnn «snare,
and thereby nearly doubling the purchase.
. The importance of setting gears in this position is
not generally understood.)
This result can be obtained bgputting all the gears
on on IND of the Wringer. ut in so doing it is
necessary to pin the rolls together to kee the co -.
wheels in gear; also, (when the Pans-r LANG! s
not used) to put a block between the bearin s of the
rolls to prevent the gears being pressed toge er close
enough to bind.
The Patent Flange Cog-Wheels, when used on both
sour. sum, allow the rolls to separate at arms mm
as one end or the other will always be in gear, If a
pressure screw was used at both on this would not
the case, because one end of a rol would have no
contro. over the other end. But with on pressure
~ screw in the slums, the pressure is equalized, for if
one end is forced it , the other end is thereby forced
down. The C -w eels cannot be thrown out of
gear on both en of the Wringer at the same time,
unless the pressure is taken ofi'. ,
The NO ELTY isfastoned to atub or bbx by a
Patent Curved Clam , which has an equal bearingon
a tub the whole earth of too ernger.
Other Wringers are merely fastened to a stave at each
end and are thus liable to wrench the stave from their
proper osition and ruin the tub.
The Cog-wheels, Thnnib~screws, &c., are nicely
galvanize . Sold everywhere.
