ROWAYTON.
Uncle Hiram, the wall-known Postmaster
lRowaton, says that he has done a thriv-
i‘g business the past six months; about
000 letters have passed through his office,

eased accordingly ; he says that all letters‘
ltended for Five Mile River should be di-

For the convenience of the oyster trade,
hich is brisk in 'spite of the hard times,
nperiutcndent Hoyt has appointed Char-
)' Raymond as freight agent at the new
pot. Tickets now can be had at reduced

mvenicncc.
We were glad to hear that Stephen Ray-
0 :id, Phoenix like, has risen from his ashes
ml commenced a new store in a new build-

The sloop, Lizzie Smith, belonging to
ortou & Wm. Knowlton, was driven

E. F. Rile, ot Preserving House fame,
says he shall want, the coming season, at
least 5,000 bushels of tomatoes. Capt. Sam-
mis says he will plant two acres, and we
will bet a new hat, that it will be not less
than 1,600 bushels, worth $800. Capt.
never does anything by the halves.
A good blacksmith and horse shoer is
wanted at Rowayton ; there are 50 horses
in the neighborhood, new work and job-
bing, and being near the Sloop Landing and
RotonP int, which makes a great deal of
traveling, there will be plenty of transient
custom. Blacksmiths, take notice.
WILTON BREVITIES.
The Rev. c. T. Woodrufl‘ delivers his able.
lecture on “ The Want of Our Times,” at
the Town Hall on Wednesday evening of
this week. He is an eloquent and popular
speaker, and will undoubtedly have a 'full
house. :
Our genial, good natured and respected
fellow-townsman, Eli S. Belts, Esq., was the
recipient of a pleasant surprise last Thurs-
day night. A lively company of young
people took possession of his domicil, and
with dancing, refreshments, &c., &c., had a
festive time.
Mr. Henry Kalzenberg has just returned-
to Wilton, from a visit to his friends in Ger-
many.
A Wiltoner was heard to exclaim, the
other day, when he saw a certain youth keel
over from an overdose of the “ vile spirit,”
“ 0 Romeo, Romeo ! wherefore art thou
Romeo ?”
The swine are being fearfully slaughtered
in this vicinity. Such is life.

iuteres‘cd.—in which you should bci ter-
csted, and which we are positively interest-
ed, to your notice, hoping they may not
“Mll”-itate with other affairs you may have
on hand. Recently you “Saw” our article
on these “SIab-szded” questions. This morn-
ing you “See” it again. Do not imagine that
because it is now repeated, we intend to
make a “Sec-Sane" matter of it, for, before
ent-“baric"-ing on it, and that we might not
get at “10 "-gerhcads witn you, or “sell” the
“teeth” of yourself and readers on “edge,” we
proceceded ii-“dusl"-triously to assure our
selfe that if you were not a “chip" of the
old “black," you were still constructed of the
right kind of “limbs-r,” and worth at least
an “Ell.”
Among the numerous re-modclled houses
here, none present a finer appearance than
that recently completed by D. M. Marvin,
Esq., for his son. The absence of superflu~
ous“glugcrbread" work, and the choice of
finely blending colors for the exterior, are
pleasing to the sensible eye.
congregational Sunday School, took place
at. the church, on Sunday afternoon last, in
the presence of a large congregation. The
exercises consisted of addresses by the Pas-
tor, Rev. A. J. Hetrick; and Rev. B. C.
Trumbull, of Hartford, Ct.; Singing by the
Children; bringing of offerings; reports of
Treas. & Scc.; and distribution of premiums
to Scholars by the Supt. Jno. E. Belts. This
School is undoubtedly the largest of any in
town, numbering as it does 20 teachers, and
about 195 scholars,among the'Scholars, 40
premiums were distributed, some of 'them
quite expensive. A present of 370,00 in
greenbacks was made to Jno N. Betts as a
recognition 'of long and faithful services,
Mr. B. has been Supt. about 18 years.—
Messrs Smibert and Jessup made presenta-
tion Speeches. The following are a few at
the results of system in this school. One
girl, Miss Hattie Whitney had attended the
School Six years without missing a Sunday.
Miss Sarah J Berthrum had been present
over three years. One girl had committed
the four gospels, to memory, and quite a
number could repeat the Sermon on the
mount, and the 119th Psalm entire, all of
which is highly creditable and worthy of
imitation. PAUL MARKHAM.

at the Parsonage on Wednesday; they go
back to the good old days of yore and in-

New England kitchen. All are invited and
none are too old to be welcome.
WESTPORT.
We have just experienced the remarka-
ble phenomenon of a “green christmas.”
But few times in one’s history is such a thing
observed. There are but few years that fail
by that time to give us the sound of mrey
Sleigh bells, or some sign of Jack-Frost and
snow. Seldom are the “greens” for our
, churches brought from the woods on wheels,
' or the festivities of New Year held under
showery skies as those of April. How dis-
tressing when Santa Claus is forced to em-
ploy a rumbling wagon in which to perform
his yearly duty, instead of the swiftly glid-
ing Sleigh. All these thing we have now
witnessed. Heretofore the notion had been
entertained that these joyful seasons must
pass without cheerfulness unenlivened by the
skaters voice, or the sound of sleighbells
Mistaken idea. In the absence of all these
we have passed a decidedly happy anniver-
sary, and can safely say that there are few
occurrences in the past twelvemontb, to
which we can look’back with greater smiles
of cheerful recollection, or with greater feel-
ings of heartfelt gratitude. There are those,
however, who if the weather is not exactly
as the almanac, or their own feelings say it
should be, are inclined to usher in these
pleasant annual epochs with melancholy
thoughts,—with watching and fasting, as if
they were about to attend as special mourn-
ers at the obsequens of the dying year.
We do not desire to be counted among such
persons, deeming it “more complimentary to
the old year which has just rolled away. and
the new one that hmjust dawned,to see the one
out and the other in, with wists; andglec."
At last, the citizens of Westport may con-
gratulate themselves on having accurate
time. Through the kindness and assiduity
- of Mr. Theodore Werner, ‘of the U. S. Coast
Survey, who, without compensation, and
merely for pastime has taken upon himself
the duty of attending to the clock on tne
memorial church of the Holy Trinity, are
we indebted for this result. Mr. W. has suc-
ceeded in putting this clock in such com-
plete order, that little or no variation of the
hands has been observed during the past
three months. The thanks of a community
are due. .
A light fall of Snow on Saturday last,
broke the monotony,-—the cycle, 80 to
speak of long continued warm and open
weather. ‘
There is a sort of‘ mania on the "mill”
question here, just now, Every body is talk-
ing about mills, and judging them the tones
of people, there are many clamoring to in-
vest iu that commodity. . Chapman & J el-
lid'e, of Cross-Highway, are well on with
' their structure, are to commence business
with a water wheel 75 feet in circumference.
Things will “rip" up there directly. 'Nash
(the Elder) thus completed his long build-
ing,—erected his $5,000 engine and boiler,—
atuck up his smoke stack,aud, as a first class
“Shutting-Machine" and “Plat"ner" has re-
cently been placed on the premises, we may
look for great things in the Sash do Blind wrt
very soon. Finally,the“0(d Hill” owned by
two persons by the name ofNash.—the mill
which has rusted in the courts for the past
three years, is, on Saturday Jan. 15th at 3
P. M. to be sold, at auction. As this estab-
lishment owns the dam adjoining, and con-
trolls the water supplied to the Grist-Mill
near by; has been self sustaining for the
past 40 years, paying at all times‘ a splen-
did interest, (a fact known to everybody) it
is looked upon as a bait worth nibbling at.
A great rush of bidders is therefore, looked
for, and a sale “respectable figures. All
these things indicate a sensible—a healthy
state of mind among the people, and know-
ing, as we do by long experience in the busi-
\ nose, the great pleasure and profit to bede-

WThe simon-purc democracy of Brook-
lyn are experiencing a new sensation.
‘hrough the instrumentailty of District
Attorney Morris sixty democrats, promi-
nent men and leaders in the demm ratic
fold, have‘been indicted by the Grand J or)
for the outragious frauds perpretrated in
that city, during the November election.
These criminals are chiefly inspectors, can-
vassers and clerks, with a sprinkling of
higher ofilcials, such as justices of the peace
and empldyees in the offices of the surroga-
tes.,coroners, tax collectors, water board,
police justices. sheriffs and registers. 'The
otfences charged are fraudulent counting,
canvassing, altering of returns and every
other mean and villaihous deception that
could contribute to swell the democratic
majority. The proofs of this rascality are
represented as conclusive upon most if not
all the accused. .
