In It. ,
A . friend of' ours who sufi'eredr‘horrible
tortures from neuraligia, hearing of a noted
Physician in Germany who invariably cured
that disease, crossed the Ocean and visited
Germany for treatment. He was perma-
nently cured, after but a short sojourn and
the Dector fl‘eeiy gave him the simple remi-
dy used, which was hothing but apoultice
and tea made tl'om our common field thistle-
The leaves are macerated 'and used 011 the
parts affected as a pouitice, while a small
quantity of the leaves are boiled down in
the proportion of a quart to a pint, and a
small wine glass of the decoction drank be-
fore each meal. Our friend says he has re-
commended it far and, near and has never
known it to fail of giving relife, while in
most every instance it has effected a cure.
It.is certainly worth the trial.

 

W The Government Engineers are still
at work running the lines of the harbor
channel. They are an active and intelligent
body.of officers, and will do their duty faith-

fully, without the intermeddling of those ‘_

averse to the interests and welfare of the
whole place. They were entertained a few
evenings since, by the Norwalk Club, when
many of our citizens had the opportunity
to make their acquaintance. Their dia-
grams and report will be in readiness to pre-
sent to Congress at its opening session in
December, when with the proper exertion
the long needed appropriation maybe se-
cured for deepening the channel from the
Bridge to the Sound. ’

The Surveyors’ names are Capt. Dager,
Messrs. Chase, Hubbard and Stevens, all of
the United States Coast Survey service.

reached their dock. about 7 o’clock. They
have not had a specially propitious time as.

many of the boys sorely needed. “All work

old proverb, and no nation so much requires
and so little indulges in recreation of this
'kind, as the Yankees. This club is composed
of many of our best citizens and their advent

Our friend, Mr. Jarvis, is famous as a
bountiful provider for the young gentlemen
who have the good fortune to be under his
charge. An annual sail and clam bake are
among the regular features of the summer
term, and takes place this year on Thursday-
next, August 10th. Morehouse, Dann,
Scofield and Hopkins are each to furnish a
four in hand for the occasion, which, with
Mr. Jarvis’s own handsome sorrels and
browns, will provide ample transportation
for his 'eighty pupils. We are informed
that the boys will march through Norwalk
and South Norwalk and we advise all our
readers to get a peep at the battalion which
carried off the flag at our Fair, last fall.

At the Point, they will first take a sail on
the fi'eshiy refitted schooner, George Law,
after which they will sit down to a dime;

, laid for a hundred by Sanford Sholes, who

vows he‘ll make int men out of every mother’s
son of them, if one stufilng can ‘efi‘ect it.
After the feast, a Dress Parade will be held,
about six o’clock, which our citizens are in-
vited to witness. The ride thither is a
pleasant one, as our readers are well aware,
and we advise all who can make it conven-O
lent to witness the exercise.

glad to learn that in front of Charles Bene-

fences and curbing close to' the trunks, these
trees may be saved. We are happy to note
this enlightened judgment on the part of
the owners of property along this line as the
avenue is so narrow -that the land is worth
more in the street than in the yards, and
will thus save the shade trees. 0

LETTEBS FROM THE‘PMPLE.

EDrrons GazE'r'rE ‘2—A drive to “Keyser’s
Island,” of an afternoon during this hot
weather is a most charming and delightful
thing. The roads are simply splendid; the
elegant mansions; the beautiful grounds;
the gorgeous Flora, and above all the open
water view with the delicious water breeze,
renders this drive exceedingly pleasant and
refreshing. For this we must thank those
noble-hearted and liberal gentlemen, Messrs.
Woodward and Keyser,who have done so
much to make this drive so fine.

But there is a needless nuisance that
should be at once abated, which if continued,

ment,” will cause it to spoil, viz :—the using
it for a trotting course for all the fast men,
and fast horses in the town. We have no
word of complaint against the proprietors
of the grounds, if they see fit to exercise
their animals on roads of their own grading;
but we do protest in the name of multitudes
of quiet citizens who wish to take their fain-
ilies, and invalid friends where they may en-
joy the delightful and refreshing air and in-
hale the sweet aroma of flowers. But the
comfort and even safety of this class is en-
tirely compromised by the yell and excite-
ment,—the “ hep l hop! hep i" of furious
and reckless drivers while the safety and
comfort of aged and invalids is destroyed.

' “Woodman Spurs that Tree.”

The rumour so rite amongst us, that the
Authorities of our Borough are about to
commit the greatest barbarities, in the un-
scrupulous distraction of our beautiful, and
majestic shade trees, is creating a painful
nervousness on the part of our citizens.

And the fact that some have fallen already
and others are evidently singled out for dis-

come apprehension. It is said, (with how
much truth we kno not) that those grand
old Elms, in front 0 the residence of Wm.
K. James Esq., also others in front of the 2nd
M. E. Church property together with others
on west ayenue, are doomed to fall. If this
be so we must intei'pose our strongest pro-
test our moat pathetic appeal “Woodman
(Borough Oflcera) Spare those trees.” They
are the glory, and pride of our village.
Save, 0 save them. A.H1L1..

legislative menaud measures in the last

you except me), for your kind words of me:
thank you, But about that police judge
matter in Meriden, I stand. clear on the re-
cord, and that is what I sought. Both the
candidates are personal and political friends,
and both believe that I meant to be just and
honorable in the matter. To be candid out-
spoken and honest has been and is the aim
of my life ; and I think the last legislature
will hear we record. Your words of com-
mendation of Senator Woodward and Rep.
Beers, were not exaggerated. Allow me to
hear my testimony to their faithfulness,
They are both very able a‘nd growing men.
As legislators none stood higher or more
greatly respected. As to W.’ D. Bishop of
Bridgepo'rt, we all how our heads and yield
to him the palm. The'grcatest and one of
the most eloquent speeches I ever heard, fell
frofi his lips; I am proud of him You
know we are both originally from Bridge-
port. I must also—notwithstanding the
Palladiunu—say a word for my friend Eaton.
He is a remarkable man; and it he was on
our side politically, we would honor him. At
all events, we will “tell the truth and shame

WOur Livery-Stable man, Dan'n, did an
act of courageous humanity last week to
which we chanced to be an eye-witness.
Three young bloods maddened and befooled
with rum, came tearing up west avenue at a
break-neck pace and unmereifully,whipping
their poor, played-oufihorse at every jump.
When approaching the N orwalk Hotel, Dan
stepped out, seized the poor horse, com-
pelled the brutal rascals to get out and took
the ‘poor quadruped to the stable. The val-
iant seamps threatened fight, but very soon
subsided when quietly informed that they
would be stalled in the Lock-up. if not very
exemplary.

‘ MY DEAR anvsrom—Your summary of

GAZETTE, is capital. It is just and true (if

walk, for bat ventilaor.

The Neptuncs.
Buisron, R. 1., Aug. 3, 1871,
DEAR GAZETTE: As I wrote you last.

week, we arrived in Edgartown on Friday,
at 9 P. M. Notwithstanding the heavy rain
and fog, all hands wereanxious to go ashore

to renew old acquaintances and make new
ones, and so forming in line headed by our

brave Axe carrying the Pioneer, we march-

ed to the Ocean House, where we received
a cordial welcome to the “ Home of the
Neptune Club.” We found it all the more
pleasant for meeting two old members of
the club from Scranton, Pa.,with their fam-
ilies. ' After passing a very delightful even-
ing, all parties retired to rest satisfied that
all the elements of enjoyment were in great
abundance in Edgartown, if the .weather
would only permit us to embrace them. In
spite of the fog and rain which greeted us
an Mrday morning, as usual, quite a large
fishing party was made up, and their perse-
verence was rewarded by excellent success,
the prize for the largest blue fish being
transferred from Secretary Disbrow to Mr.
Howard, of Bridgeport. The number of
fish caught here was less than at Nantucket,
but the average: weight was muhb greater,
the prize fish weighing seven pounds, two
ounces. The prize for the second largest,
weight seven pounds, was taken by C. F.
Pain of Rochester. For the greatest number,
twenty-six, by Secretary Disbrow, and for
the smallest, weight one pound, by Mr. Ar-
thur Sherwood, of Westport. In the even-
ing our Quartette Club, consisting of S. B.
Spinning, D. E. Disbrow, D. E. Burlock and
Arthur Sherwood, gave a concert in the
Town Hall, andsamost delightfulentertain-
ment it was. Where all do. well it is hard
to particularize, but it is universally admit-
ted v’that “ Sam ” excelled himself. You
tharhave enjoyed his singing will under-
stand that. He has been the life of the trip,
and no one that heard his argument for the
prpsecution on the court-martial held the
first day out will ever forget it. During the
evening the Commodore was called on for
a song, which was received with enthusias-
tic applause; indeed, we are credibly in-
formed, by two or three of the club, who,
unable to forget the girls they left behind
them, returned from Oak Blufi‘s, that the
whole town from the Congregational chugch
to the end of Long Ridge, is resonant with
the “ Juba Hallelujah ” Chorus. If it is
not now, it certainly was at the close' of the
concert, for the greater portion of the audi-
ence seemed inspired by one common im-
pulse to move in that‘direction, and the rain
having ceased, to enjoy a most splendid
moonlight promenade, the . pleasures of
which were only increased by the dense fog
which still prevailed. The skies as well as
the earth and the denizens thereof, contri-
hated to our enjoyment, for as the moon
rose higher a most magnificent lunar fog
bow formed in the Western sky and contin-
ued for nearly an hour. As the members
returned to the vessel one by one, there was
organized our “experience” meetings which
ever since have been kept up with increas-
ing zest.

Sunday afternoon the club attended the
Congregational Church, by invitation, and
listened to a fine sermon from Chaplain
Simnson. Sunday night passed only too
quickly, and with many regrets we bade
“ good bye,” and sailed at 8 a. m., Monday,
for Oak Bluffs. carrying with us most de-
lightful remembrances of our two days’ visit
at Edgartown. '

.To appreciate Oak Blufi‘s and the Camp
Grounds, one must visit them. No descrip-
tion can begin to give an idea of the charms
of this place. A bleak sand hill, rising fifty
or sixty feet above the ocean, dotted here
and there by groves of twistedguariey oaks,
it has been made to bloom and blossom like
the rose, and is today, at least, to the eyes
of every member of the Neptune Club (and
they have traveled some) the most attractive
watering place in the country. Here, as at
Edgartown, it seems as though our friends
Could not do enough to increase our pleas-
ure, and after the concert which was given
in the new pavilion on the Bluff, not one
dissenting vote was heard when a motion
was made to stay another day at the Camp
Ground.

On Tuesday morning it was voted to sail
for Bristol at twelve o’clock at night, no one
daring to wait till night to take the vote for
fear that the decision would be to remain at
the Bluffs for the rest of the week. It seem-
ed though everybody and everything had
conspired for our happiness and many and
sincere were the expressions of thanks to‘lhe
kind friends who contributed to this result.

Sailing at 12 o‘clock at night, Wednesday
morning found us anchored in Tarpauiin
Cove, as usual waiting -for the fog to lift.
After breakfast, and a bath on the beach, it
was voted to sail for Bristol fog or no fog.
So placing the youngest member of the club
on the outer end of the bowsprit, with a tin
born to warn passing vessels of our where-
abouts, we beat down Vineyard Sound, till
reaching Gay Head, we left the fog behind
us, and with a'good breeze from the south,
arrived at 8 o’clock. . ‘

Forming in, line we marched up into
town, saluting the ofilce of the Bristol
Phoenix, the residence of Captain Gifford,
and the Bristol Hotel, where we were invited
in and requested to make ourselves at home.
The public hall being occupied, it was de-
cided to have some music in the hotel par-
lors, and in a very few minutes the rooms
were filled with as merry a party of ladies
and gentlemen as ever assembled at so short
a notice.

I think if we in Norwalk would cultivate
a great deal more of the spirit of hospitality
such as has been manifested to us on this
entire trip, we should always be the happier
for it. ' . ' ' '

Ifever an evening was‘thoroughly enjoyed
by any one, Wednesday evening was so eu-
joyed by the Neptune Club at the Bristo
House. We mean to pay them ofi‘ for it, if
any of the company ever come down our
way. '

We are now on our way to Rocky Point for
a “ shore dinner,” from which place we start
for home this afternoon. Despite unpleas—
ant weather during all the first half of our
trip, we have enjoyed ourselves immensely,
and with a prespeet of a good breeze to take
us towards borne, are in the happiest humor
imaginable.

Yours, FISHERMAN.
