Murder will (hit!
in actual realization; for, as they approach,
and men's appetites sharpen by the thought,
or by the bracing frosty weather that accom-
panies, or by the frequent exhalations of
savory steam from the kitchen dungeons
where ducks, seething giblets, martyred
porklings. and soups, per chance, allreeking
with a terrapin’s quintessencc are compound-
ed, it becomes a fit and proper question to
ask, “ how shall we enjoy each as it arrives,
and with what luxuii :s shall we provide our
tables." As poultry must form indispensa-
ble components of the bills of fare, we take
occasion to warn farmers and others against
the ravages of thieves and purloiners, whose
business thrives at this time of the year, In
order that they may not be called to mourn
the unceremonius departure ofhens, turkeys,
geese. etc., at the very time when they have
the greatest need of them. To such we would
respectfully say, placcpolypodcndrons around
your poultry yards, protect your hen roosts
with ichthyosanruus; introduce any agency
that has snap and lute to it as guard against
the inroads of light-fingered gentry, and thus
be enabled to celebrate Christmas day, and
the succeeding great days, in a fit and becom-
ing manner.

The boys and girls are having fine sport
each evening in tying greens for Christmas.
Judging from the assiduity displayed, the
churches will be handsomely decorated at
the approaching festival. Music will also
be in character. Christmas Eve comes on
Friday this year. We shall look for good
sleighing on that occasion. Whether it is so
or not Santa Claus will be around during
the night with his sleigh well loaded with
good things. He will come down the chim-
ney of evsry house where there are juveniles

On Sunday evening 12th inst., the Rev.
Mr. Hammond delivered -his advertised
Sermon on universalism. his text being “To
the law and the testimony.” Saying in
conclusion, “If universalism be true the bi-
ble is false; if the Bible is true universalism
is of the devil.”
At the Lyceum on Tuesday Evening last,
“The Bible in the common Schools” was
discussed before a large audience and with
much warmth. The debate is to be con-
tinued. ‘
Measures have been taken to form a Hook
and Ladder 00.; about $100 are in hand for
it and the proceeds of the three lectures, are
to be given it. These lectures ought to be
well attended, for beside getting more than
the money worth at the lectures, the securi-
ty against extensive fire will be very great,
and though this is a step forward we are
sorry to hear of a step backward in allow~
ing the Express Co. to remove its Office from
town because of a lack of reasonableness on
the part of the R. R. 00.; this is a mistake
which every one who has a package to ex-
press wiil feel.-

Tm; PERSONAL JOURNALIST.—It- is only
within the last five or ten years that the
personal journalist has claimed an acknowl-
edged position, and set up a. regular anti
well-paid business. N ow he infests the
country. There are many newspapers that
live by his labors; and very few, whatever
their position, are free from the contamina-
tion of his touch. His breathings taint the
social atmosphere, and develope in us all
a moral disease, the seeds of which are in
every heart. For the curiosity which he
pampers and gratifies is but a monstrous
and distorted form of the desire of knowl-
edge, a perversion of the humanity supposed
to be expressed in Terrence’s famous line,
“I am a man, and regard nothing human as
foreign to me," which has been made since
it was first uttered, as it was then made, the
excuse for prying into the afl'airs of others,
on the score of neighborliness and sympa-
thy. What the gossip, the scandal mongcr,
and the quidnunc do, single-handed and un-
der protest—almost underban—the personal
journalist makes it his business to do for
gain ; and what they tattle to individuals
he, by means Of the printing press and the
fashi-=n of reading newspapers, tells to
thousands and tens of thousands. There is
no restraint of decency upon the noble en-
terprise which carries him beyond the lim-
its of privacy for the satisfaction Of curios-
ity. In his eagerness to bring hidden things
to light, he passes the bounds set up by per-
sonal reserve with the daring and th7z dash
of a swine running at a swill-irough. Per-
sonal journalism, as it is now practiced, has
voided man’s life, and woman’s too, of all
semblance of privacy—Richard Grant White
in January Galaay.
Expansion Bridge Between Cars.
The railroad commisssioners for this State
have issued a circular, as follows, to the su
perintcndents Of the several railroad lines
in Connecticut :
Dear Sin—The general railroad commiss-
ioners of the State of Connecticut having
for sometime past observed the neglect of
some railroad companies in the State to pro-
vide their passenger cars with a proper and
suitable connecting abron, or expansion
bridge, for the safety of those who travel
over their railroads, hereby call your atten-
tion to an not passed by the legislature of
this State on the 22d (lay of June, 1866, and
as amended'iu 1867, whereby it is madé
the duty of every railroad company in the
State to provide such safety bridges, or
aprons. The railroad commissioners hereby
give notice to all concerned, that, on and
after the first day of January, 1870, they
will consider it to be their duty to enforce
the said law by prosecuting every such
violation of the statue as shall come to their
knowledge upon any and all railroads in
the Stat . -

BRID GEPORT.
A bogus firm named “Stewart do Sons”
has been unearthed at Bridgeport, which has
received heavy consignments of produce,
and sent them away to unknown parts with-
out paying for them. Over $10,000 worth of
produce fraudulently obtained was found at
rifle freight depot at Bridgeport consigned to
t t em. ’
Bridgeport has 33 public schools and 4329
school children. For these schools there
are ten principals (male) with thirty-six te-
male assistants. In addition there is a mil-
itary institute with about 100 cadets, four
large female seminaries, and an institute to
- fit young men for college. The school fund
received from the State was $5320. and the
school tax amounts to about $22,000
Rev. Dr. Gordon Bolt's large library has
been removed from Southport to Bridgeport
where it is being catalogued preparatory to
its being sold.
The railroad track that is sinking contin—
ually at Bridgeport, is made passable only
by a constant supply of gravel, and a special
train carrying gravel has been put on
the road.

DARIEN.
The Daricn Temperance Union held an
interesting meeting on Monday evening, Dec.
18. An election. of officers for the Associa-
tion was held, and the meeting was addres-
‘ ed by the Rev. Mr. Simmons of Norwalk,
in s most instructive and forcible manner.
The meeting was characterized by a new
interest and enthusiasm in the temperance
cause, and it is to be hoped that the stirring
words of the lecturer will result in good to
the community at large.

BEDDING.
A correspondent of the Danbury Jefer-
mien makes the following strange state-
ment in regard to this town, the proper
name of which, by the way, it is now claim-
ed is Raiding-~—
“ The march Of improvements in town are
on the wane. Ever since the D. do N. R. R
was built everything has gone backwards,
as far as improvements are concerned. The
number Of inhabitants has been gradually
decreasing for twenty-five years."
which railroads and telegrapbs have upon
climate. He says the Opinion scents to be
gaining strength that the Pacific railroad is
working a great change in the climate ofthc
plains. Instead of continuous droughts, all
along the railroad, ran now falls in refresh-
ing abundance. This result has been rc~
marked upon in other sections of thewest.
In central Ohio, for example, it is said, the '
climate has been completely revolutionized
since iron rails have formed a network all
over that region. Instead of the destructive
droughts formerly sufi’ered there, for some
four out of five years there has been rain in
abundance—even more than enough to sat-
isfy all the wants of farmers. This change
is thought to be the result of an equilibrium
produced in the electrical 'currents, which
has brought about a more uniform dispen-
sation of the rain. It is a fact within the
observation of all who remember ante-rail-
road times, that ws haVe now few or no
such thunder storms as we formerly had in
New England. The iron rails which touch
and cross each other in every direction,
serve as conductors and equalizers of the
elect- ic currents, and so prevent the terrible
explosions which used to terrify us in form-
er years. The telegraphic wires which ac-
company tho iron rails everywhere, also act
important part in diffusing electricity equal
ly through the atmosphere, thus preventing
the occurrence of severe thunder storms.

CONSUMPTION AND CANCER CURED.
Wan-man, Mass, Nov. ‘2, 1868.
My grandmother and several aunts and cousins
died of consumption. lily mother had a cancer: I was
taken with a bad cough which had affected me 13
months; 12 months after my cough commenced, can-
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 myluugs were affected, and a cancer in each
breast. Consumption and cancer seemed to struggle
which would destroy the first.. I had suffered much .
from dyspepS'a. Yourremedies, with the concentra- a
ted cancer mineral spring water have wholly cured '
me. I have been perfectly well fortwo months; no
cough oyexpcctoratton; no swclllngin my breasts:
nodygpepsifl: no pain or suffering. Everywhere I
am strong and able to perform all my duties. I took i
medicines four months.
Thankfully yours.
