George Carter sold his house and lot on

——
WILTON.
We do not know why our enterprising
Railroad men cannot see that there is another
branch needed on our Danbury and Nor-
walk Road, to make it complete; or rather,
make it a better paying institution than it
now is: viz. To start at Wilton, Fitch’s
Crossing so called, passing up through the
valley to the Granite Quarry of Messrs.
Mann 8r Leigh, known as Mill Stone Rock.
The road to said quarry could be built with
but little difiiculty, if our moneyed men
WOuld open their purses and say go ahead,
knowing that the quarry “would produce
freight enough of itself, to pay a large in-
terest on the money invested, saying noth-
ing of the Station that could be erected at
James Comstock’s store, where milk, timber‘
and passengers, would add greatly to the
amount of freight. ' The proprietors of the
quarry, have to reject scores of orders, on
acc aunt of being obliged to haul large stone
so far with teams. One order for a bridge,
amounting to three hundred and filly car
load, and another order for the East river
bridge, amounting to three hundred and
fifty thousand ton, had to be rejected on ac~
count of no means of transportation, except
by teams. It would have taken fifty teams
seven hundred days, allowing two trips per
day each team, to cart the stone for this last
mentioned order. Stone can be furnished
from this mammoth quarry, of almost any
size from one to one hundred feet. Beside
the business which this quarry would afi'ord,
there is friend Olmstead, who is daily re-
ceiving and shipping a vast amount of
freight. Also Messrs. Rus‘coe, Hoyt & Co,
and Mr. James Comstock, who are daily in
receipt of freight, all of which must be
carted to and from Wilton Station, a dis-
tance of from three to five miles. We hope
the day is not far distant, when the Bald
Hill people can exclaim, lo and behold, the
iron horse is here. R. E. PORTER.
WESTPORT.
The Goose Island people are quietly re-
moving their efi‘ects from their late place of
business, and no further trouble will be ex-
perienced from that quarter.
Doctor Woodmfi’s Lecture on Wednesday
evening, was attended by a much larger au—
dience than could have been expected, obn-
sidering the inclement weather.
The case of B. W. Maples, as NewYork «St
New Haven Railroad, which occupied near-
ly four days in trial, was disposed of by
non-suit—Judge Minor granting a motion
for that purpose. The case will next come
before the Supreme Court of Errors. It is
impossible to anticipate what fate it will
meet with before that high tribunal.
Every measure which looks to public im-
provement in any quarter, should meet with
the consideration due it. Individual preju-
dice or opinion should not be entitled to un-
due weight; therefore, if the scheme to lay
out a road parallel to the Compo road,to ex-
tend from a point south of H. R. Treadwell’s
residence, along the river, terminating below
the railroad near Mrs. Cutting’s, is called
for, let the $1,500 asked, be granted. Our
town debt is of course heavy, it wril be
heavier when we pay for “that bridge,”
which will come along in due time; inll
heavier when we issue bonds and build the
Saugatuck Valley Railroad, but then an ex-
tra thousand or two for this or that pet plan
will make but little difference. Let us open
the proposed road. .

Except Noah Bradley’s, McCredy’s home-

_ Woodward vs. Woodward.
Both political parties have now made
their Senatorial nominations in this District.
Mr. E..A. Woodward, notwithstanding
all the pains he has taken to announce in
advance that he would not be a candidate,
will,no doubt, be “forced" to accept by his
political friends. It isa standing discredit
to the District that, with a clear Repub-
lican majority, one of Bill Tweed’s political
gels was allowed to win at the first trial.
ow we have an opportunity to wipe out
that disgrace. It can be done, and we be-
lieve it will.
0p osed to E. A. Woodward we have
Asa B. Woodward, of Norwalk, a distin-
uished member of the Fairfield County
ar, a gentleman of high-toned personal
character, and whose olitical record is
clearly and consistently epublican. He is
in every sense a candidate worthy of the
honor ofa triumphant election to the State
Senate—Stamford Advocate. .

List, and look out for your friends. If there
are any names on the list that don’t belong

N.” -
@The following truthful utterances
from the Courant will commend themselves
to every conscientious, thoughtful voter in
this section with peculiar force:
“There are voters, more’s the pity, who
have no conscience about what they do at
the polls. The worst of them look upon the
franchise fI‘om the dollars and centspoint of
vrew. They regard it as a saleable com-
modi , to be disposed of to the highest bid-
der. he supreme function of American
citizenship means to them only so much
whisky or beer. But there are men who
have a certain amount of intelligence, who
lead moral lives, who are members of christ-
ian churches, who neither stupef y themselve s
with liquor nor pocket bribes, and who are
notwithstanding, of but little more value
than the imbruted bribe takers. They vote
carelessly, without any sense of moral re-
sponsibilily. They give less thought to an
election than to a game of checkers. Now,
this is all wrong. Society is, in its way, as
sacred an institution as the church. Every
individual member of ti is bound to do his
duty by it intelligentl , conscientiously, and
in the fear of God. Lining is every whit as
solemn and important an act as the taking
part in a pro. er-meeting or the listening to
a sermon. 0 christian man has a right to
leave his religion behind him when he goes
out of his house on election day. He is in-
excusable if he casts his ballot in favor of a
party of injustice and oppressionL-a party
of prescription and persecution—a reckless
party which, having connivedat amurderous
assault upon the national life, is now con-
spiring against the national power,',which is
more precious than life. It is a matter for
every God-fearing man to settle for himself.
Is this a party one which you can conscien-
tiously support. ~

DE. JOSEPH n. SCIENCE’S. SIMPLE

and availed themselves of his woudcrtblly_efilcaclous
medicines, they would not have fallen.
Dr. Schcnck hasin his own case proven that where-
evcr sufficient vitality remains, that vitality, by his medi-
cines and his directions for their usc,is quickened into
healthful vigor.
In this statement there is nothing presumptuous.
To the faith of the invalid is made no representation
that is not a thousand times substantiated by living and
visible works. The theory of the cure by Dr. Schenck‘s
medicines is as simple as it is unfailing. Its philosophy
requires no argument. It is self assuring, self-con-
vinc .
The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the first two
weapons with which the citadel ofthe malady is assailed
Two-thirds of the cases of consumption originate in dys-
pepsia and a functionally disordered liver. With this
condition the bronchial tubes “ sym athlzo " with the
stomach. They respond to the mar llic action of the
liver. Here then comes the culminating result, and th
setting in, with allits distressing symptoms, of ,

The Mandrake Pills are com osed of one of Nature’s
noblest gifts—the Pedophillum cltatum. They possess all
the b1 -searching, alteratlve properties of calomel, but

,“ LEAVE NO ‘ STING BEHIND-”t
The work of euro is now beginning. The vitintcd and
mucous deposits in the bowels and in the alimentary ca-
nalaro c cctod. The liver like a clock, is wound u . It
arouses in its torpldltya The stomach acts responstel ’,
and the patient begins to feel that he is getting, at last,
[A syn-LY oriooon nLooth
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Pills, per-
meates and assimilates with the food. Chyllficatlon is
now progressing, withoutitl previous tortures. Digestion
becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be at hand.
There is no more flatulence, no _cxacerbatlon of the sto-
mach. An appetite sets in. A
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet given
by an indulgent father to suffering man. Schenck's Pul-
monlc Syrup comes in to perform its functions and to
hasten and complete the ours. It enters at once upon its
work. Nature cannot be cheated. It collects and ripens
the impaired and diseased portions of the lungs. In the
form of gatherings ltrgircpares them for expectoration,
and lot in avcry sho time the malady is vanquished,
the rotten throne that it occupied is renovated and made
new, and the patient, in all t o dignity of regained vigor,
steps forth to enjoy the manhood or womanhood that was
;GIVEN,UP.AS- LOST. I
/ The second thingls, the patients must stay in a warm
room until the get well: it is almost impossible to pre-
vent. Iaklng co d when the In are diseased, but it must
be rcventcd or a cure cannot e efi'ectcd. Fresh air and
rl out, especially in this section of the country in the
fall and winter season, are all wrong. thslcians who
recommend that course lose their patients, If their lungs
are badly diseased - and yet, because they are in the house
they must not sit own qtuiet: they must walk about the
room as much and as the as the strength will bear, to get
up a good circulation of blood. The patients must keep
in good spirits—be determined to get well. This has a
great deal to do with the appetite, and is the great point to
gain.
- To despair of cure after such evidence of its possibility
in the worst cases and moral certainty in a1 others is
sinful. Dr. Schenck‘s personal statement to the Faculty
of his own cure was in these modest words :
“Many ears ago I was in the last stages of consump-
tion: can nedtom bed and At: one time my physicians
thought that I coul not vs a. week; then like a drowning
man catching at straws, I heard of,md obtained the pre-
parations which I now offer to the public, and they made
a perfect cure of me. It seemed to me that I could feel
them penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened the
matter in my lungs, and I would spit up more than n glint
of offensive yellow matter ev morning for along t c.
As soon as that began to subs do, my cough, fever, pains
and night sweats all began to leave me, and my a petite

Mrssus. Until 3305., Nonwaur,
Gentlemen :—I feel that I owe you a debt of grati-
tude‘for the great reliefI have experienced from the
use of your Dr. J. Bnaomu’s EXTRACI'. I have
long been a sufi'erer from some distressing disease of
the Kidneys, and could obtain no relief or comfort
from anything till I heard of this, and gave it a trial,
although I have employed doctors at home and
abroa and taken every remedy advertised or recom-
meude to cure the complaint.
My case was a stubborn one and I began to des-
pair of ever vetting better when I saw your adver-
tisement in the Almanac,l and went to the drug store
and ot a box of it. My imbs and feet were then
terri ly swollen, and so soft and doughy that the
pressure of my fiuvers in the flesh wouldfienvc a hole
as it‘ I had made the some in putty. lllv back pained
me terribly night and day; my appetite was gone-
myiongue burned; my face pale and waxen, and
began to believe as m friends told me, thathas
“soon gainsr under." commenced the use of the
Extract, alfhough I had but little confidence in i? I
had tried so many things: and have now taken it or
about one month, and used up two boxes, and I am
so relieved and improved by its use that I feel like a
new man. The swelling in my limbs has nearly all
gone, nnd the flesh is much more as it on ht to be;
my appetite is better; I feel stronger, and am get-
tin some color in my face again; and. if I keep as
we 1 as I have I am confident I soon shall be a well
man. If this Is not encouraging to an invalid, what
is 7 You may well recommend the Extract as a val.
usbleremedy in these diseases, and althou h I am
an entire stranger I have taken this liberty Ogletting
you know what it is doing for me. I hope it may be
advertised far and near, that others may receive the
benefit from it. that I have. Yours, &c.,

Messrs. Unto: BROTHERS, Druggists: '
I have noticed in the GAZETTE a letter from a gen-
tleman in Bridgeport in regard to Dr. J. Blackmanjs
Golden Eztroot, and I should like to add my testi-
mouy' in favor of this truly valuable medicine.
My trouble has been the gravel and the Golden
Extract has entirely cured me. y wife has also
made use of it for pains in the back, and irregulari-
ties, and obtains great relief from it. I would not
be without it if it cost a hundred dollars a box.
