WOur Borough authorities have oer-

in our village walks. But we are certain
that their orders to construct walks, which
' q are officially served upon our property-hold-
ers would be more kindly received and
prove of more lasting benefit, if all such or-
ders were accompanied by specifications as
to width of walk and grade. It is a worse
than useless expenditure of money to con-
struct walks which must be either raised or
lowered the moment water is introduced
and the necessary system of sewerage adopt-
ed. Ifthe grades of our streets cannot as

where, being ‘ unable to dispose of him he
turned him adrift and stole another horse
there which he drove home to Whortleber-

the sleeping Samuel were called out at the
unreasonable hour of 2 a. m. by Mr. Sc’ofield
and the Sheriff. He made a partially clean
breast of it after being taken before Justice
Crew, and upon going to Ponghkeepsie the
Norwalk horse was recovered and the New
York horse surrendered to the River County
Sherifi‘, who came over after him.. This an-
imal was worth, probably, some $150.—
Meantime Sam lay in durance vile, and is
now ruminating .at the County Hotel at
Bridgeport, awaiting his trial and transfer
to the more odorons atmosphere of classic
Wethersfield. The most important part of
the whole transaction is that Sam intimates
his willingness to expose the whole gang of
horse thieves of which he has long been a
member. The toll-gate keeper near Pough-
keepsie asserts. that “in has been in the
habit of passing there with very fine horses
for the pastifive years, and it had been sus-

largely attended by our first ladies, and all
seem to speak enthusiastically of their inter-
est and value.
Prof. Starr delivered an entertaining and
instructive lecture, or talk, before the Y. M.
C. A. last Wednesday evening. He made
no attempt at oratory, but spoke “ briefly
and to the point, ” displaying much native
wit. His microscope was simply wonderful
and its revelations astonishing.
Miss Kate Field, the distinguished author-
ess, who is to lecture at Lockwood’ s Hall,
next week, delivered her lecture on Dickens,
was Longfellow, Fields, Hillard, D. A. Wee-
son, Dr. Laihrop, Whipple, Nesby and other
noted men. The Tribune thus describes her
appearance;—“The curtain rising, a slight,
gracethl girl is disclosed, with floating hair,
‘f outwardly brown but inwardly golden,”
and clear, honest eyes, which insure her wel-
come before she opens her lips. The up
plause which salutes her is only less enthusi-
astic thanthat with which she is summoned
before the curtain after it has fallen upon
her brilliantIperoration.”
A lecture is announced to be given at the
Congregational Church, South Norwalk,
next week Monday evening, by Mr. A. 0.
Van Lennep, who was for thirty years a' res-
ident of the East, and who will describe the
manners, customs, and worship in Oriental
and Bible Lands. He will be accompanied
by a native of Constantinople in costume.
On Friday evening last, at the M. E.
church lecture room, Prof. Gunning “struck
lie,”' in so far as to instruct his audience as
to the manner of its deposit, and that of
coal. Those who were not present can form
some idea of the exceeding interest of the
lecture, perhaps, from the f« allowing summa-
The speaker said that the petroleum-mak-
ing and the coal-making periods wodld claim
our attention, He sketched the history of
the earth briefly, down to the period we call
the Old Red Sandstone, pointing out on a
painted section, the successive formation of
rocks. In the Old Red Sandstone we find,
in America, our great reservoirs of petrole-
um. This oil is formed in the rocks of every
geologic age after life began. It has no c011-
nexion with the coal. ' Itis no new thing
under the sun. It was ‘used by the builders
of Babel and Babylon, It was used by the
Egyptians to soak their mummies in. The
Pharaohs got petroleum from the Island of
hate. Iob seems to have had petroleum
wells in the land of Uz. His wells dried
up. The spéaker had heard his lament from
the lips of men sitting by their wells in
Pennsylvania, and held more firmly in the
clutch of - the devil than Job of old was
.held. “ O, that I was as in months past
when the rocks poured me out rim-i of oil.”
The devil had his hand on the first petrole-
um operator. He has his hand on some of
them today Our thohgbts pass from' the
human'to the Godward side of this rock oil.
How was it made? The speaker detailed
experiments to show, first, what it is made
of, and second, how it was made. He found
carbon and hydrogen to be its elements.—
One is visible, the other invisible; one tan-
gible, the, other intangible. Carbon and its
compounds appear to the eye under many
forms. The speaker held up a piece of am-
ber and said it was simply one form of pe-
troleum. He went on to show how it was
formed. It had been through the mill of
life. All petroleum, he found, had been
through the mill of life. He described the
seas‘of the Old Red Sandstone age and the
living things that peopled them. All that
primitive population had perished. Not by
annihilation. “To be or not to be," was not
the question. Shakspeare was wrong. 'If
a thing is', in some form, it must always be.
The Prof. gave experiments again showmg
how petroleum is distilled fi'om seaweeds
and the lower forms of animal life. He in-
terred that all petroleum is merely the gar-
nered lives of by-goue ages—lives and sun-
beams. For the sunbeam in the last analy-
sis, is the architect of petroleum, and not a
sunbeam was ever lost. " In the large coono-
my of God, nothing is lost, and the very
rays of the sun which fell on the globe ages
ago, are shining again in thevjets of gas and
the burning lamps of every Norwalk home
to-night. The speaker again appealed to
experiments, and reached the great truth
that the force which underlies all the activi-
ties of nature, the force which took the atom
fiom the rock and sent it up to its throne in
the human brain, dwells in the sunbeams.
And ever since the sunbeam has been falling
on the earth, and ever since the living thing
was here to drink the‘ sunbeam, light and
life have been toiling to form petroleum.
The Coal-making age followed the Old
Red. The speaker sketched the geography
of Europe and America atthe dawn of this
epoch. He described the primeval forests
and their life of reptiles. He showed then
how the generations of tree weeds had been
wrought _into coal. All the coal was once
bit of coal into a jar of oxygen. It burned
with a vivid light and passed into vapor. —
The air' in that glass jar, he said, was an im-
age of the air that once enwrapped the

Another Entertainment.
We are especially gratified in announcing
.that Miss Potter, now of the Darieu Semin-
ary, and who has hereto fore been the teach-
er of Elocu‘tion at Packer Collegiate Insti-
tute, Brooklyn, isto give a public reading
at Lockwood’s Hall, on' Monday evening of
'next week. We have certainly had no one
here except it be Murdock, who can ap-
proach her, and in many recitations we
think she clearly excels the great trag'edian.
Murdock is not gifted with the ventriloquial
powers of Miss Potter, and we can confident-
ly assureour rcadersthat they will be richly
repaid by attending hcr entertainment. We
append a few testimonials fi'om the press: -
The goat 'event of this anniversary of the
State eacbers’ Association has been the
reading a ofMiss Potter, of the Packer In-
stitute, ng-ynBrookl . To give her a place by
the side of our ynbest known orators is the
universal sentiment of all who have heard
her. Her rendering of “ Sheridan’ a Ride, ”

ever assembled' in Lindon Ha. was equal
to Murdoch’s best efi‘orts. —N. Y. Times.
Her voice is remarkably powerfiil and
quite fiexible. -Her merits are many, and

are said to be equal, if not an rior to those

the late disturbances between the difi'erent
classes of the institution. Time will allow
us to meiition but a few of the Professor’ 11
ed how the reputation of the College had
sufiered by the action of a few students,
carried away by excitement, a mistaken 0b
ligation to uphold foolish customs and an
excess of class feeling , that the system of
“ haziug” was destructiye of every generous
and noble sentiment, and that no student
could assist in keeping alive this debasing
practice and feel that his character had not
suffered by so doing; that it exposes to pun-

that it tends to create a~ distaste for study3
and debate, that it- was .the duty of every
upper class-man to express his disapl’l'm'al
0fcust0ms, the evil effects of which he had
himselfexperienced. The speaker conclud-
ed by expressing a hope that the time was
not far distant when the presence of the fac-
ulty would be considered no intrusion either
at the sports or in the rooms of the students,
and that the restraint which seemed to ex-
ist upon the relations of instructors and stu-
dents would be entirely removed. Thehall
'was well filled, and the careful attention
paid to the speaker during his interesting
remarks, and. the hearty applause which
greeted him at the close Iproved how popu-
lar the Professor is among the students, as
a speaker and instructor, and how ready
they are, as a body, to listen t0,the remarks
of one whom they know has takena fair
and impartial view of the existing evil. May

unmanly and debasing practices than all

College is rapidly approaching completion.

soon include another in her fine collection

At a recent election of class historians in

Stimson were respectively elected to these
positions by the members of the first, sec

as divided during the Freshman year. .
' The Faculty have decided that the wood-

This is the current report, but the Juniors
are 10th to credit such unfavorable news.
The Thanksgiving Jubilee is also a thing of

popular animal examinations ?
The Freshman class of the Theological
Department' is unusually large this year- ,
but its numbers have not protected it from
the jokes leveled at the new comers by the
upper classmen. The following is the latest.
