‘ fission ggUNTY ITEMS.

DARIEN.

The sale at property owned by M. E.
Mead, Esq., at Noroton, by Johnson do Mil-
ler, took place as advertised, on Thursday
last. The day, one of the most beautiful of
the season, was in most agreeable contrast
with the drenching storm of Wednesday and
the large concourse of persons present from
New York, Norwalk, Darien and Stamford,
seemed to enter fiilly into the. spirit of the
occasion, enjoying to the utmost the fine
music discoursed by Grafula’s band, the ex-
cellent collation served by a well-known
New York caterer, and the other pleasant
features of the day.

The sale Of houses, lots, doc was a success-
ful one, the elegant improvements, wide
roadways, the handsome villa plots, all of
which are eligibly and attractively located,
eliciting the most appreciative approval.
Few of the residents of Darien were before
aware of the desirable situation of the prop-
erty which for the first time opened to the
public. Three houses and some thirty-five
lots were sold, bringing about $20,000.
Purchasers were evidently greatly pleased
with their real estate investments and with
good reason, one gentlemen disposing of
some villa plots at an advanced price before
leaving the grounds. Altogether the~ sale
may be considered a grand success, nearly
all the parties interested are expecting to
add valuable improvements in the way of

. buildings, &c., upon the property, and N ore-
ton cannot fail to become not only a grow-
ing neighborhood, but one of the most sub-
urban towns within a convenient distance
from New York. '

RIDGEFIELD.

Our beautiful, far-extending shady street
is likely to become a popular resort for our
City neighbors during the hot months. Large
numbers seeking board have been turned
away the past summer for lack of accom-
modation. ,

Our branch Railroad makes this quiet old
town very handy to the city, and with its
ever flesh breezes, ample shade, and quiet,
cozy homes, it is as good a place to flee to
from the heat and dust as can well be found.

The practical application of a little public
spirit would make our Main street one of the
finest drives in the State

A good thing has just been done by the
Methodist Society. The old sheds and barn
have been removed from near the church to

. the rear of the lot, the grounds graded,walks
laid on both streets and the whole corner
enclosed with a neat fence. Church and
Parsonage have been painted outside, and
the audience room bears pleasing witness to
the excellent taste and skill of our young
painter Mr. T. C. White, in selecting and ap-
plying , colors. The ladies have carpeted
and cushioned the Church throughout, mak-
ing it a most pleasant and enjoyable place
in which to sit and hear the gospel. The
old rusty stoves ant! pipes disappeared and
the church is to be warmed by portable
heaters set in the basement.

Professor Ralph G. Hibbard, teacher of
clocution in Wesleyan University will give
select readings from popular authors, in the
church, on Wednesday evening Sept'Gth, to
aid in procuring heaters for the church.
Prof. H. has great celebrity as an clocu-
tionist, and all who can hear him will be de-
lighted to do so, while their attendance will
help a good cause. Pnoennss.

WESTPORT.

The three' days’ grove meeting of the
Methodist Societies held at Saugatuck, near
the Railroad Station, turned out delightful-
ly. On Wednesday, the first day, a delug-
ing rain rather dampened the at‘dor of such
as had placed great expectations on the
event, and Thursday morning had but little
in it to inspire orencouragc. The afternoon
of that day, however, and also Friday were
all that could be desired so far as weather
was concerned. The place chosen is a ro-
abundance 0f splendid shade trees. Beneath
these the various tents, tables, booths,
preaching, standing, and benchinghad been
put up, and when the sun came out on
Thursday the good folks had the gratifica-
tion of seeing a portion of their wishes at
least, fulfilled. Rev. Mr. Robinson of West-
port, and Rev. Mr. Taylor of Saugatuck,
conducted the exercises, aided. of course by
such of the brethren as chose to participate.
Large numbers were in attendance on Fri-
day from surrounding towns, estimated by
many as very much over a thousand persons.
There were no services on Saturday, but on

Open-air meetings were held, throngs of peo-
ple being present. '

Mr. Luke Wilkins late of this town, pur-
chased a finediouse and grounds at Darien.
near the depot, on Thursday last, at the auc-
tion sale of real estate.

Painters. and carpenters are putting the
finishing touches upon Mr. Chas. Kemper’s
dwelling house. Its present appearance is
one of great beauty.

The onion crop hereabouts is large, and
heavy shipments are weekly made. Prices
range from $1.50, to $2.00, per Bbl.

The main road fi'om Peat Swamp to Nor-
walk is in an awful condition; stones, gnllcys
and general uneVeness making it dangerous
to travcl'on. Will Norwalk attend to the
public grievances! .

Mrs. George Harris, formerly Miss Mamie
Clark, sailed for San Francisco, via the
isthmus of Panama, and from thence to
Yokohama, Japan, to join her husband
who is connected with a line of steamers
running between there and Shanghi. She
expects to remain in that distant region
many years._ . PAUL.

Wus'rronr, Sept. 4, 1871.

Mr. Harry Smith, of Saugatuck, was cross-
ing the track of the N. Y. do N. H. R. R. at
about nine o’clock Monday morning, 4th,
when his wagon was run into by some cars
which had been detached from the construc-
tion train. The hind wheels of the wagon
were broken; Mr. Smith was thrown out,
and striking on his head, received severe in-
juries. He was taken home and will prob-
ably recover. There was no flag man, and
the cars were some distance from the em
gine. The accident was the result of gross
carelessness on the part of the employees of
the Company—Hour.

Mr. Maples sends us a communication de-
nying the story that he was recently ejected
from a baggage car on the New York 8: New
Haven R. R. It seems that Conductor Lock?
wood put 011‘ a man who threatened an ex-
posure in Mr. Maples’ paper, and that is the
foundation of the story. Mr. Maples says:

“I have given this story more attention
than it deserves, and more than it would
have received were circumstances different.
I have an important suit against the Railr’d
company, and until that is decided do not
care to be given the reputation of being
quite such a stupid fool as I must be, if, after
having commuted on the road for nearly ten
years I fail to comply with all reasonable
rules and regulations of the company, or
quarrel with a conductor who is only doing

his duty.”
-—.—_._‘.
Dr. Greeley.

Some of the papers are trying to be very
facetious over the news that Amherst Col-
lege has conferred upon Horace Greeley the
degree of L. L. D., by which he is entitled to
be called Dr. Greeley. He did not get it as
General Sheridan got it, because he was a
dashing cavalry ofi'icer ; nor as the Hon. Ben
Butler got'it; nor because he had given or
was expected to give, a donation to the Col-
lege; nor because he had been elected to
some prominent political office ; nor because
he had introduced valuable foreign plants to
this country, nor because he had taken a de-
cided stand against cruelty to animals; nor
because he had made a valuable invention,
and got it patented; nor because he had
carried the gospel to Africa; nor because of
his extraordinary classical crudition and
knowledge or cunnieform literature. Men
who have distinguished themselves in such
ways as these have been greatly rewarded
for their merits by American colleges with
the gift of the title of "Doctor of Laws.”
But Mr. Greeley can be charged 'thh none
of these things. We suppose that ifAmherst
College, in issuing his degree,were to speci-
fy the grounds on which it had acted, it
would appear that he was created an L. L.

1. For his book on “Farming,” a remark-
able contribution to the agricultural litera-
ture of America.

2. For his “Recollections of a Busy Life,”
a positive addition to autobiographical liter-
ature. '

3. For his Work on Political Economy,”
in which a difficult theme is handled in an
easy manner.

4. For his books of Essays and Travels,
in which his views of men, places and things
are set forth.

5. For his recent discourse at Akron,
which is a striking contribution to theologi-
cal literature.

6. For his recent, letters and speeches on
Texas and the next Presidency, published
for the information of emigrants and voters.

7. For his letters in the Tribune, his essays
in the Ledger, and his articles in the Indra
pendent, which, though mainly on current
topics, have a deep and abiding influence,
and have been written in a strong and vivid
style.

8. For his services in the “cause” of free-
dom, progress, reform and patriotism.

9. For his virtuous life, which has been an
example to the American youth of both
sexes.

Now, it'oui‘ querulous cotemporaries which
cannot find out why Amherst has made Mr.
Greeley a “Doctor of Laws," will study pa-
tiently all these specifications, read careful-
ly all the works that are mentioned, and
consider candidly the versatality which the
works display, they may be able to discover
what they want to know. If any other edi.
tor can show such claims to a degree, he
may be sure he will get it.— 0-572. 00mmerczal_

Dr. Greeley's great work, the American
Conflict, seems to have been overlooked in

the list of his literary efi‘orts.

With-the fact that its financial affairs are en-

whose name and reputation for integrity,
business success and standing is nowhere
excelled in this country, has given the fullest
confidence in the success of the enterprise,

' We urge upon capitalists and all having money to
invest, the most careful lnveltlzatlon of
these securities, believing them to combine more
safety and profit than any Railroad Bond now in the
market. The Portland and Ogdensbnrg Railroad
line will be the shortest route by more than
fifty miles from the Lakes to the Atlantic.

The road will have local business enough to
pay all its running expenses and to inauretiie
prompt and regular payment or Inter-

greatest. pleasure thoroughfare in the
Eastern States, uniting by the shortest route Sara-
togu and Lakes George and Champlain with the
W hue Mountains, Lakes lliemphremagog and
Willoughby, Mount Mansfield and the cele-
brated mineral springs of Northern Vermont.

The Road is under the management of some of the
most experienced, successful and widely known
business men in the country, who will insist upon
the closest economy and honesty in the administra-
tion of its affairs.

The managers of the Road have themselves in-
vested largely in its capital stock, the cash subscrip-
aions being nearly sumclent to complete the Road
ready for the iron, (thus showing their appreciation
of the Importance and value of this enterprise). For
convenience of investors the bonds (coupon or regis-
tered), are of the following denominations:

$1,000, $500 and 8100,
and the interest, six rim CENT. com, is payable semi-
annually in Boston on the 1st of May and the 1st: of
November. These Bonds are offered until further
notice, at 90, and accrued interest in currency.

being that one class of risks is sufficient for any one
