FAIRFIELD COUNTY ITEMS.

WESTPORT.

The heat is great. It remains persistent—
ly steady and unchanging and judging from
reports from all parts Of the country. PM“?
ularly cities, is telling a fl‘ighlf‘11 story “P011
all classes of citizens. For duration and in-
tensity, calling to mind the notable seasons
torrid sutfering which have occurred dm‘ing
the past twenty years, the grand cycle
through which .wo are now passing is ap-
palling to the senses, and would impress
one with the fact that the elements have ful-
len under the power of some malign influ-
ence with no special prospect of abatement.
with the exception of two days, the ther-
mometer has ranged from 86 to 100 in the
shade, since July 1st. An occasional shower
has temporarily laid the dust and cooled

the air, but has not tended to alleviate the
grand difiiculty.

The petitions in the matter of abatement
of the Goose Island nuisance had a hearing
before Judge Minor in N orwalk on Tuesday
last, and after taking the evidence of special-*-
ly aggrieved parties, among whom may be
mentioned many of the wealthiest real estate
owners in Nor-walk and WestpOrt, granted
an injunction restraining further, operations
in hone boilin'g at the island. lThe injuction
was promply served, and sufilCicnt time al-
lowed the parties to pull up stakes and leave
should they fail to comply, a little healthy
assistance will be afi‘orded by the authori-
ties. We congratulate every—body without
a radius of ten miles, on the prospect of a
speedy removal of this long continued
stench in their nostrils.

One day last Week as a boy named Her-
mann Peters in company with several other
boys, was playing with a pistol, it suddenly
went oil“, lodging its contents in his hand
inflicting an ugly and dangerous wound Dr.
Bouton attended to the case. '

A short time since Mr. O. I. Jones stepped
upon a needle that was sticking up on the
floor. The needle broke off in his foot and
despite the efforts of Surgeons remains there
yet, greatly to his pain and annoyance. He
may live.

We hear it reported that one or two par-
ties here, 'not satisfied with the profits Of
their regular and legitimate business, were
tempted by the prospect of a rise in gold, in
consequence of war in Europe, to enter into
a Wall street speculation, by way of varie-
ty, and were most unmericfully “chawed up”
by the “bulls” and “bears” who infest that
locality. Their fate reminds us of what Josh
Billings one said. “Thare iz menny a per-
son who ean set a monse-trap tew perfecshun
, but satisfied with sich small game, undertake
to trap for bears, and kit ketched by the
bears. MORAL— Study yure genius, and
stick tew mice.

That thunder storm which came up so sud-
denly on Monday, July 18, did considerable
damage to trees and things in this vicinity.
The heat of the following day, however,
showed that had lent but a small cooling in-
fluence.

Just as we expected the ice supply is get-

ting short, and will hardly be sufiicieut for ,

the requirements of the season. The thin
ice put up here last winter is now showing
itself as mean stuff, but better than none.

Has anybody heard of the Glam Bake to
be held at Gregory’s Point one week from
Thursday? Everybody has heard of it, and
everybody is going, so far as we are able to
learn. Who takes the photographs ?

Residents of the old Shircrow School Dis-
trict listen to this our mournful wail, called
forth by the action of that man by the name
of Nash, in pulling down and destroying
that saw-mill, the very fibers of whose tim-
bers were woven in with the fibers Of our
heart from earliest childhood. Has the man
no compunctions ?—no regard for the past
and its associations ? We pause.

A new burglar-proofsafe, weighing 7,000
lbs.,has been placed in. the vault of the First
National Bank. The counting-room furni-
ture is up, looks handsome, and compare
favorably with that of any other institution
in the county. The entire building is Ftp--
preaching completion. ’

It is strange, but, notwithstanding the 10-
cal regulations,people will allow theirhorscs
and cattle to run upon the highways. We
counted no less than five of the former quiet-
ly grazing near each other _a day or two
since. We regret that the example set by
us in the matter, should fail to warn people
to abstain from such practices.

A paper dress party was given at the resi-
deuce Of J. M. Pinckney, Esq., (himself ab-
scnt,) on Saturday p. in. Some 25 boys and
girls were in attendance. Croquet and oth-
er games were indulgcd in.

Yesterday was the first dog day, and
brought with it plenty of mosquitos and heat.
There are forty dog-days. Mercy on us.

STAMFORD.

A colored boy who was in the lock up
for stealing an umbrella from Mr. Samuel
Brown, escaped from that institution by re-
moving the lock. -

The contract for digging the cellar for'thc
new town house is in the hands of Mr. Seth
Miller. -

We regret to learn that Mr. H. H. Goldy
the well known carpenter and builder, had
his thumb cut off at the planing mill last
Friday. ‘ _

On Wednesday morning the express
which leaves the Stamford depot at8 o’clock
ran off the track, about a hundred yards
from her starting place, in consequence of
the misplaccment of a switch.

The dwelling house which has stood so
many gears on Main street, opposite Quin-
tard’s lock, is moved to a lot in the rear,
where a new basement will be built under
it, and it will, we suppose, still be used as a
dwelling. A brick block is to be erected on
its former site. ‘

As a number of young gentlemen were
bathing at the Waterside, on the morning of
the 14 inst, a youngllad ventured beyond
his strength, and would have gone down
but for the noble efforts of Mr. Samuel Gor-
man, who swam out to the drowning youth
and brought him safe to shore—Advocate.

,Thc census of Stamford as far as taken
seems to demonstrate that while the popula-
tion of the northern half of the town has
fallen off two hundred, the village itself has
igcreaised one-third to one—half during the last

ecac e.‘ ' '

A Rochester paper tells a romantic story
of a young dressmaker, who became infat-
uated with a young man without his knowl-
edge, And to make herself worthy of him
she took to study, and after a sever course
of French, Italian, and Piano, during which
she worked at her occupation and only slept
three hours out of the twenty-four, the young
.man married another girl. The blow was
too much for the young ladie’s reason, and
she is now an inmate of an insane asylum.

—Mothers used to provide. a switch for
their daughters from the nearest bush ; now
the daughter gets her own switches from
the hair dresser. - '

THE following lines were sent by a friend in 1847.

and then published' but “they still live,” and
the numerous calls of late to make pictures after
death bring them to mind so forcibly that I am in-
duced to republish:

Would you seek in kindred hearts 8 fitting place,
Give them in style dognerrotyped your face.
For to “secure the shadow etc the substance fade"
9; artists skilled provision now is made.

HITNEY (the some who has long displayed
His taste in taking faces that never fade )
And who, everybody knows, as everybo ou ht,
Is ready to “transfer” you with the spec oft ought,
0: wish, or swift decrees of fate,
And fix your shadow on the silvered plate;
Then cased in richness you may easily possess
A lasting token, wihch in after years will bless .
The heart of some kind friend, that oil; shall gaze
U n the mellow tints transferred by gentle rays
0 light, obedient to the will of those who paint
In co on! so mysterious, in style so rich and quaint.
Then should yourself or friend be called away,

- Death numbers not. the gem that’s left in h‘s array.

Ali! many are the hearts that lonv will prize
Their power, who bring obedient from the skies
The charm to paint the form with power of art,
That stamps its impress on the gazer’s heart.
