FAIRFIELD COUNTY ITEMS.
. WILTON.
The ladies of Zion’s Hill Methodist church
propose holding a Fair and Festival on the
4th and 5th of July. Were there no other
inducements offered to attend than the well
known beauty of the young ladies of this so-
ciety, that alone would be an attraction suf-
ficient to insure a rousing house.
Our well known citizen Nathan Comstock,
with commendable enterprise, has had en‘
closed the green, near the Post-ofllce, mak-
ing a very pretty little park.
Mr. David Griswold, decorative and
house painter, has just finished painting the
residence of S. B. Sturges, Esq., at Cannon’s
Station, Which for artistic skill, workman-
ship and taste displayed, cannot be equaled
by anything done in that line in this sec-
tion. David, as a sling-er of paint, has few
superiors.
We understand that the proposed re-un-
- ion of the old students of Wilton Academy
will not take place. So little interest was
shown, by the majority of the graduates, in
the affair, that it has been abandoned by
the projectors. K-MUTER.
RIDGEFIELD.
The Branch road commenced operations
Saturday. The Depot building was raised
on that day, making some excitement here,
the people surprised the builders and others
assisting, with a generous donation of crack-
ers and cheese which were washed down
with many potations of cider.

The best bequet of cultivated flowers
was donated to the society, and given to the
lady receiving the most votes—the gents
only to vote. The result showed that Miss
Lina Lockwood was the most popular
young lady. The boquet of wild flowers
receiving the first premium was given to
the gentleman receiving the largest number
of votes, the ladiesonly to vote, D. Smith
Sholes was the lucky individual.

be well done.

BRIDGEPORT.
Bridgeport furnished another candidate
for the reform school on Monday, and now
boasts of having more inmates in that in-
stitution, in propotion to her population
than either Hartford or New Haven.
A young girl and her beau were assailed
by a gang of roughs in Bridgeport on
Sunday evening and suffered considerable
injury. The young man ran away, leaving
the girl to be rescued by the residents of the
neilghborhood.
he race. between the yatch Bella of
Brooklyn and Mr. Bradbury s yatch Tiger
of this city, took place to-day, and was won
by the Bella by over four minutes. Thus
those who were led by their faith in yester-
day's performance to lay out their stamps
on the Tiger got “scooped in.” There were
several thousand dollars lost and won, and
Bridgeport is considerable poorer than she
was. .
We understand that the purchase oflands
to be occupied the Singer SeWiug Machine
Company has been consummated and that
the deeds were lodged with the Town Clerk
for record to-day. The amount paid for the

Sunday morning a boy about ten years
old, had a pistol and was trying to put it
in his pocket. It was accidental y dischar -
ed, the charge passing into his bowels. e
is considered to be in a critical condition.
The boy’s name was Lead—Standard.
On Monday night last, during the thun-
der shower, 9. bolt struck the house of Mr.
Isaac Nichols on Greenfield Hill, and passed
down the li htuing rod, entered the cham-
ber where s. Horatio Banks, dau hter of
Mrs. Nichols, her husband, and litt c child
were lying in bed. The electric fluid burned
of considerable of the hair from Mrs.
Bank’s head, singed her eyebrows and eye-
lashes, and blistered her breast and other
portions of her body. The pillow on which
her head res'ted was split, and set on flré‘,’
and the feathers scattered'about. ' The bolt
then passed ‘ofi'. Neither Mr. Bank's or the
child were injured. - Mrs. Banks hasbeen in
a deranged condition ever since, and it is -
feared that she will not recover; _ She is;
quite young, and had only been married a
year and a half. ~ 9 -
FACTS FOR THE LADIES;
We, the undersigned, Sisters of Charity,
certify with pleasure that, after a trial of- ten
cars, we have found Wheeler do Wilson’s
Sewing Machine superior in every respect to
all others used in our establishment. Their
mechanism is strong and perfect, and with
little care never get out of order.

WESTPORT.
Mr. Edward H. Nash made the'nrst trial of his
new Steam Saw Mill on Thursday last, and the result
was perfectly satisfactory in every way. The Engine
did the work required of it under a pressure of only
thirty pounds, and the gearing and carriage appa-
ratus, somewhat novel and peculiar in construction,
did the bidding of its master in due style. An orig-
nal contrivauce for the removal of saw-dust was also
tried with success, and is worthy of comment. ' When
everything is fully arranged the only fuel to be used
will be the daily surplus of slabs. Mr. Nash has
been at very great expense in getting this enterprise
so well on, and we hope he may be rewarded with a
good run of business. An experienced Engineer will
remain on the premises for the present.
We regret to state that only a few persons re-
sponded to the call for a public meeting on Tuesday
evening last to take steps for the proper celebration
of the coming “ Fourth. Let one more opportunity
be given for an expression of sentiment, for it might
not have been fully understood by people at large.
I suppose plenty of time yet remains.
The and effects of severe dry weather are begin-
ning to be seen among the fields and crops. Rain
would be quite acceptable at this time.
Strawberries in abundance and quite cheap. Cher-
ries are ripe, and the birds, first: to discover it, are
having tine feasts daily.
Some anxiety was felt here last week as to the re-
sult in the Legislature on the question'of striking out
the word “ white" from the Constitution. As we ex-
pected, the resolution failed in the House and there-
fore must stand over. We would respectfully ask
what dlfl'ereuee it makes to the people whether it is
stricken out or not 7 The “ Fifteenth” has been rat-
ified by threesquarters of the States. and the author-
ities at Washington, satisfied tha't the result has been
legally and fairly, have proclaimed it a part of the
fundamental law of the land, anything in any State
Constitution to the contrary notwithstanding. Our
Legislature was evidently “ set on" to make this un-
called for “ rumpus,” by a few “State Right’s" men
who had prevailed on Gov. English to incorporate
the suggestion into his message. Has Gov. English
forgotten that heswore on May 4th, to support the
Constitution of the United States, with this identical
15th attached to it 7 We think not.
TheLegislature having granted the petition of the
Danbury and Portchester Road, which willultimate-
ly connect with Boston, Hartford and Eric, stamps
the word “ defunct” on the Ssugatuck Valley R. R.
We regret this on account of our own little scheme
for a home railroad.
By resolution oil'ered In the last town meeting,
highway surveyors were required to perform the du-
ties of their contracts before July 1st, instead of-latcr
in the season. In compliance therewith, we notice
an almost general determination to come to time.
Many needed improvements have been made, but at
one point, (we "refer to the digging of an unsightly
ditch in front of the late Solomon Gray’s residence.)
the work has been botched in a manner wholly un-
necessary, and will cause some unwary person to
break his neck.
There are several beautiful spots in Westport where -
nature and art seem to have combined to excel, we
refer specially to Mr. Alden’s. Mrs. Winslow’s and
the grounds of the church of the Holy Trinity. These
are each kept raked and trimmed in the most scien-
tific manner, and present the appearance of having
daily been set out from under aband-box. With the
exception of St. Paul’s, Norwalk, “ Trinity” is the
most lovely spot we know of. .
The Methodist people gave a Strawberry Festival
at their church one day last'wcek. They had a joy-
ful time and made money. Rev. Mr. Robinson. the
new Pastor, is well liked.
D. S. Gray’s Billiard Table will be four-pocket in-
stead of full carom. . '
Friday gave as heat at its 0 in the shade, Saturday
and Sunday, ditto.
General Grant passes through Westport on Satur-
day, July 2d. If the efl'ort now making to have the
train stop 15 minutes is successful, a large crowd will
be on hand to welcome him. We regret that he can-
not spend time to call on us.

20th, as heretofore. PAUL.
A Swede, whose name we did not learn, was
drowned on Sunday, 19th, while bathing in the
harbor. 2 .
One of the large Strawberry raisers had 50 bushels
of Strawberries, (1,600 quarts) picked in one day off
of his “patch." At 20 ets per quart we should think
his patch paid him pretty well.

The Josh Billings, Papers.
MARRIAGE.
Marriage iz a_fair transaction on the face
ov it.
But there iz quite too often put up jobs
m m.
It iz an old institushun, older than the
pyramids, and as phull ov bydrogliphicks
that nobody kan parse. _
History holds its tounge who the pair waz-
who fust put on the silken harness, and
promised tow work kind in it thru thick and
thin, up hill and down, and on the level,
rain or shine, survive or perish, sink or
swim, drown or flote.
But whoever they waz, they must have
made a good thing out ov it, or so menny
ov their posterity would not have harnessed
up and drove out.
Thare iz a grate moral grip in marriage;
it iz the mortar ”that holds the soshull bricks
together.
Sum ’marry for buty, and never diskover
their mistake; this iz lucky.
Sum marry for money, and don’t see it.
Sum marry for pedigrees, and feel big for
six months, and then very sensibly‘ cum to
the conclusion that'pedigree ain’t no better
than skim milk. '
Sum marry for love without a cent in
their pocket, nor a friend in the world, nor
a drop of pedigree. This looks desperate,
but iz the strength of the game.
If marrying for love ain’t a success, then
matrimony is a ded beet.
Sum marry because they think wimmin
will be scarce next year, and live tew won-
der how the crop holds out.
Sum marry tew get rid ov themselves, and
diskover that the game waz one that two
could play at, and neither win.
' Sum marry the the second time to get
even, and find it a gambling game, the more
they put down the less they take up.
Sum marry tew be happy, and not finding
it, wonder where all the happiness goes to
when it dies. ~
Sum marry, they can’t tell why, and live
they can’t tell how. ’
Almost every boddy gets married, and it
is a good joke.
Sum marry in haste, and then sit down
and think it carefully over.
Sum think it over carefully-fast, and then
set down and marry.
Both ways are right, if they hit the mark.
Sum marry rakes tow convert them. This
iz a little risky, and takes a smart missiona-
ry to do it. .
Sum marry coquets. This is like buying
a poor farm heavily mortgaged, and work-
ing the ballance ov yurs days to clear oph
the mortgages. -
Married life has its chances, and this iz
just what gives it its flavor. Every boddy
luvs to phool With the chances, bekause
cveryboddy expects tew win. But I am
authorized to state that every boddy don’t
win.
But after all, married life iz full as certain
as the dry goods business.
Kno man kan say exactly where he will
fetch up when he touches calico.
Kno man kan tell jist what calico haz
made up its mind tew do .next.
Calico don’t kno even herself.
Dry goods ov all kinds Us the child ov
circumstansis.
Sum never marry, but this iz jist as risky ;
the disease is the same, with no other name
to it.
The man who stands on the bank shiver-
‘ing, ondrest, iz more apt tew ketch cold than
him who pitches hiz bed that into the river.
There is but few who never marry bekauze
they won’t—they all banker, and most ov
them starve with slices ov bread before
them (spread on both sides), jist for the lack
of grit. ,
Marry yungl iz my motto. ,
I have tried it, and kno what I am talkin‘
about. ,
If enny boddy asks yu whi ya got mar-
ried, (if needs be,) tell him, yu don’t reccol-
leckt.
Marriage iz a safe way to gamble—if yu
win, you win a. pile, and if you loze, you
don’t loze ennything, only the privilege 0v
living dismally alone, and soaking yur own
feet.
I repeat it in italicks, marry yang!
Thare iz but one good excuse for 3. mar-
riage late in life, and ‘that iz—a second mar-
riage. '
