{@IEPIELD COUNTY ITEMS;

' WESTPORT.

Fickleness, thy name is—weather. It has
sung more changes during the past week
than Ppe’s immortal jingle of “The Bells.”
Thursday opened bland, mild and genial,—
was excessively warm at three, and at five
o’clock “ blew great guns,” accompanied
with thunder and lightning ‘and rain, the
like of which is seldom heard or seen except

 
 

{a
e.

 

 

 

 

in July. A damp, drizzling night succeeded, ,

and Friday was passed amid smiles and
‘ tears. Saturday was again fine. One is at
a loss to interpret all this. It “holds .the
word Of promise to the ear, but breaks it to
the hope.” You predict one thing and it is
sure' to do just ‘the reverse. Like some
women saying. “No,” it means “Yes.”

After a sojourn of Several months in
Georgia, Mr. John Gray returned to his
home in Westport, greatly improved in
health and appearance.

The funeral of Mr. Solomon Gray took
place on Tuesday last. During the com-
mittal service at Christ Church Cemetery,
an incident happened which so disturbed
the solemnity of the scene as to be worthy
of note. The body had been lowered into
the grave, the Rev. Mr. Williams had pro.
nounced “earth to earth, ashes to ashes,
dust to dust,” and was in the midst of the
passage—“I heard a voice from heaven
saying unto me,” 850., and all minds were
filled with those thoughts which the death
of a fellow mortal‘ alone can suggest, when
suddenly a horse, fastened to the outer
fenée, took fright, burst his reins, dashed
down the hill Over the “old bridge,” and up
the Weston road,cOmpletely demolishing
the vehicle to which he was attached, and
severely injuring himself before being
caught. In the meantime the startled crowd
around the grave, with all due respect for
the deceased, and for the solemn rites being
performed, uncertain as to Whether a house
was on fire or the last trump had sounded,
were unable to bestow their undivided
attention.

A few days since Capt. Francis Bennett,
of the sloop George Law, had the miSfortune
to be stricken down with paralysis. For a
time one side of him was com'pletely power-

. less, but he is now just'a little better, and
possibly may recover. ' _

On Saturday last somebody set fire to the
leaves and 'underbrush on the east side of
Bali Mountain, and as no efforts were made
to extinguish it made a complete circuit of

.- that elevation, killing, we fear, many of the
young evergreen trees that thrive in that
locality. It was still burning early on
Sunday morning.

The Goose Island nuisance still remains
a stench' in the nostrils of- every man,
woman and child within a radius of ten
miles. Several petitions to the Legislature

looking to its abatement or removal are in
circulation, but as yet the immense cauldron
boils, and the unearthly efil’uvia floats upo
the air. .

It is currently i'eported that Mrs. P. Bur-

ritt and Son are taking steps for the Sale of

their magnificent home at Saugatuck, and
Will. so soon as it is effected take their de-
parture for some place for remote. When a
family of wealth and standing in society,
beloved and respected by a large circle of
friends, as we know they are, leave a town
where they have so long resided, we cannot
but express With many others, a. word of re-
gret.

The Spring campaign for trout-fishing has
fairly opened. Already do we hear me rat-
tling of rods, and the din from_ sharpening
hooks, and if -the great outcry for . “ gut,”
“ snell” and“ fly” is any indication, some-
thing terrible in the way of “catching” is at
hand. . Let him who first catches a five

- pounder, give a feast to his piscatorial b'reth-
ren—Cigars in order.

The venerable Morris‘ Ketchum, Esq.,
hale and hearty, was in town last week,
after passing the Winter in Savannah, Ga.
Through Mr. J onathan‘ Camp, recently re-
cently returned from that place, we learn
that Mr. Ketchum has the only Banking In-

stitution of any importance there, and in -

addition, he and his Sons are doing a thriv-
ing business in the mefcantile line. Mr.
Camp reports as his experience (barring a
rheumatic infliction which overtook hiin)
that one of the few really enjoyable meth-
ods Of living, is to tarry a Summer at the
Noi'th, and a Winter at the South.

It is rather early yet,but we wish to make
a suggestion relative to the manner in which
the coming “Fourth” shall be celebrated.
For one we are heartily sick of “Fantastic”
processions as a means of exhibiting pa-
triotism and fostering the memory of great
events. Give us sensible parades, intelli-
gent gpeeches, good music, &c., &c., and we
are quite sure every good citizen will par—
ticipate, and gladly assist in defraying the
expenses. PAUL. ,

DANDTJRY.

The stores of H. N. Fanton, Fred Starr,
and Augustus Hoyt, and the postoflice, in
» Danbury, were entered on Wednesday night
of last week and robbed of money and oth-
er valuablesto the amount of about forty
dollars. The letters in the postoflicc were
undisturbed, as were also the postage
.stamps in an adjoining. drawer. “The bur-
glar was evidently an apprentice to the bus-
iness and exhibited more daring than dis-
cretion. . ' ‘

Envious people should not always trust to
first impressions. A venerable lat of a
rather credulous turn of mind, an poor
stretch of wisdom, saw a‘pa'ir 0t grays da'sh
by' her window one day last week, and in
the agony of envy, she shook her fist at the
establishment, and cried out: “-Ride, darn
ye; it’ll be my turn by and by." 'lhe hand-
some grays were attached to a hearse.,—.

,On three nights of last week, the factory.
Of H. Crofut dc Co. was broken into.

The letter H must be a favorite in theo-
logical seminaries. Danbury has five min-
isters-H of whom possess the letter H as an
initial. Hubbard, Hayden, Hawley, Has-
kell and Hatfield. - .

_ A meeting of the committee appointed at
the last borough meeting to procure and
erect a suitable fire alarm bell or bells, was
held at borough hall, on Tuesday evening,
when it was voted that a committee bein-
structed to procure and erect a suitable fire
bell, the cost of which is not to exceed one
thousand dollars.

The President has nominated Phineas D.
Crpsby .tor postmaster at Danbury.—News.

 

. STAMFORD.

Hon. Truman Smith delivered his message
on. Temperance, in Seeiy’sHaIl, Tuesday
evening.

On and after Monday, May 2d, the Steamer
Shippan will make daily trips, touching at
Greenwich each way.

A large engine house is being built near

‘ 4 the depot by the Railroad company. It will
have room for a dozen engines.

0. Bunten & 00., Of Stamford, has made
s contract with the Ridgefield railroad to
build a number of strong Carts. suitable for
railroading purposes. ’ ‘

This collection District, comprising the
towns of Stamford, Greenwich and Darien,
pay this year into the United States Treas-
ury, for income and license taxes, upwards
of $50,000.

The traveller going north from Stamford,
will find a new-land mark in the shape of a
church spire about half a dozen miles from

the village. It is the new M. E. Church of
the Farms district recently located.

The senator elect from this district, the
representatives from Stamford, and several
of their prominent‘friends and supporters,
celebrated their late victo by a champaigne
dinner at 'the Stamford ouse, on Saturday
evening last. .

We are glad to learn that the health of
Hon. Thomas B. Butler is steadily im-

.- »» ' . We will, without doubt, be elected

-' rice, 0. position to which he is en-
' lung usage, and for which he is
qualified b legal ability and
in.“ =9! experience. e see by thelPallc-
dial/o, Inai Hon. L. F. S. Foster has been
informally recommended by. members of the
bar, as Chief Justice. . We doubt if any ex-
pression of opinion by a few legal gentlemen
will influence the Legislature to supercede
such a judge as Thomas B. Butler.

TEE adulteration of food has been atten-
ded with results so fatal, and been so alarm-
ingly on the increase, that France and many
ot countries have enacted laws making
it a criminal offence. In the absence of
such wholesome laws itbehooves the heads
of families to \know what enters into the
famil diet. J. Monroe Taylor’s Gold Med-
al Sa eratus is warranted not only pure apd
health~giving, but economical. It makes
one-third'more bread, cakes, &c., from the
same quantity of flour than when any oth-
er saleratus or soda is used.

To Capitalists and Investors.
' At this season-of the year when considerable sums
of money are released, and new forms of inveétment

. sought, we ask a careful consideration of the advan-

tages and attractions Of the LOAN ofl‘ered by the
NEW HAVEN, MIDDLETOWN AND WILLIMAN-
TIC RAILROAD COMPANY:

(1,) It is secured by a first mortgage on paraperty
worth double the amount of bonds issued. _ '

(2.) It is based on the Great Through Line between
Boston and New York, which saves “ distance 27
miles and in time nearly one hour. 3'.
(3.) The early completion of one-half of the rdad
and the economical expenditure of nearly two-thirds of
the estimated cost of the whclclinc.

(4.) The local traffic developed during the past
thirty years awaiting the opening of the road, and
the through trade, which inn by necessity, flow to
short and quick routes.

(5.) e line is located in our State, will largely in-
crease i productiveness dud influelwe, and add mate-
rially to its wealth. . -

(6.) The well-known chafacter of the projectors of
the enterprise, which is a guarantee of its early com-
pletion and successful management.

(7.) The bonds are exempt from all State, Load
and Government Taxes. ‘
(8.) Theybear 7per cent. interest, payable half-
yearly, May, lst and Novemberlst, in New York.
(9.) They are issued either registered or coupon, and

_ are of the denommations of $500 and 81000,

THE PRICE IS PAR AND INTEREST.

TO those'who desire to pvoid all risks in their in-
vestments, who prefer absolute safety with a liberal
income, we recommen°d the AIR LINE BONDS, be-
lieving them to possess advantages which will cause
them to be a favorite investment and always in de

mand.
