a trip to Vermont, much improved in health.
He made the entire journey on horseback.
The board of Selectmen, in their report at
the Town meeting, claimed to have reduced
the indebtedness of the town, during the
past year above $3000. Upon an examina-
.tion since by a committee appointed for that
purpose it is found to have been reduced
over $1,400. We modestly inquire “where-
fore is this thus." ‘
. The Railroad Commissioners will be here
this week to assess the damages to property
holdcn along the proposed route of the R. R.
to the Bald Hillquarry. ‘
We venture to say that there were more
people in the woods, on Sunday, gathering
nuts, than attended church. This is a good
field for missionary work.

mon~pure town elected a full ticket in oppo-
sition to the bunkers, who have so long
borne sway there.

There was instrumental music also.

Last week a procession of 100 vehicles par-

meeting was held in Concert Hall to induce
E. A. \Voodward.
We give below the letter mW
last, and bespeak fW . I’m-“1'
diced commdmn. e know our corres-
pOndént is moved by no other motive than
appreciation ofthe benefits conterl‘cd upon
his section of the town by Mr. Woodward’s
public spirited use of his money. ‘ To this
extent, we think his sentiments are general-
ly shared by all the people of Norwalk. His
vast wealth has been so largely distributed
among our citizens, that it could not fail to
be of public as well as private benefit. And
so long as Mr. Woodward sees fit to decline
public omce, and remain a quiet citizen, we
think him entitled to the same immunity
from unfriendly criticisms as any other pri-
vate gentlemen; so long at least, as the pur-
suers of the thieving Tammany Ring fail to
connect him with their robberies. But when
he'aspires to political honors and seeks as a
democrat, to override our republican major-
ities, not by reason of his talents or virtues,
but simply and solely on account of his dol-
lars, then he will find that his fellow citi-
zens will take vigorous issue with him, as
they did last spring. Just this and nothing
more.”
The Honorable E. A. Woodward-
I have~ no fellowship with Mr. Woodward
in politics. Inever voted for him, though I
might do so in preference to some professing
Republicanism. I have never had any busi-
ness transactions with him, and have never
been in his house. And yet if I had occa-
sion to ask a favor of any one there is no one
in this town of whom I could do so with so
little :hesitation :or embarrassment. Of
his history previous to' his residence here
I know little except what has appeared in
the New York papers recently. Some things
that have been said of him in connection
with the municipal “ring" there may be true.
Some I believe are false or greatly exagger-
ated, others I know to be so. That he is
in any way criminally implicated with them
those familiar with him and his business af-
fairs since hc came to Norwalk do not be-
lieve. In the present terribly debauched
state of public morals, increased to such an
alarming extent by the temptation and op-
portunities afforded by,the civil war, when so
many of the very highest in honor and pow-
er in the, country; Federal and State, are
notoriously guilty of malfeasance in office——
Yes, and even more than that; degrading
the honor. and impairing the influence of
our government abroad; and jeopardizing
the lives and the interests of their country-
men abroad for base and selfish ends; when
unkindness and corruption are the rule and
virtue and patriotism the exception ; is it
surprising that a man associated with Mr.
Tweed should avail of the opportunity thus
placed before him to make a liberal pro-
vision for himself? How many are there
who could have ,withstood such a tempta-
tion ? “Judge not that ye be not judged."
One thing is apparent to all, however much
those in New York are troubled by the re-
cent disclosures, he is not much disturbed by
them. He is not “disposing of his real es-
state,” or otherwise “preparing to leave the
country,” as has been said of him. But
without justifying or excusing any thing said
of his previous history, of ,which we know
little, ought we not rather to judge him by
the good he has done and still is doing in
this town, and manifest our gratitude for it?
Of this I have had opportunities to know
much. Some of his operations maynow ap-
burning, storing or handling it.
sider this the best test of its perfect safety.
WGuilty," isgthc title of a
. cw book issued by Carleton, N.Y., and for
sale by Selhck. " We are assured by the au ,
thor that this is really a- true story, and that
she has confined herself so "closely. to the
facts as to retain even the names of' the
leading characters. It. is the story Of “Man-
hattaanll” a tragedy that created great
sensation in New York in the year 1800.
The author has worked the story up in very
attractive form, weaving in pleasing inci-
dents to show the plot and characters. The
book is charmingly written, the style being
remarkably pure and free from any attempt;
at “sensation”, in strong contrastwith many
books Of' the day. As a story, however, the
book will disappoint those who delight in
“Ali’s well that ends well”. The author
should not stop with this effort, and we hope
she will continue to employ her talents in
book making}

One huge old animated wonder, however
waddles out of the upper Nile to challenge

er glimpse at the interior marvels of central
Africa is furnished in the superbly bmuti-
ful and lithesome Eland, while of that class
of majestic and thoughtful qu upeds, who
always carry their trunks wit hem, there
is a veritable herd, one member of which is
ot‘a peculiarly accommodating disposition
and will give any and all of the little folks
a free ride in the Hindoo Houdah. Al-
though the doors do not open until 1 O’clock,
we advrse those residing out of town to
start early, in order to be in time for the
parade, which is a free and the managers
say, brilliantly gorgeous, beautiful and odd,
exhibition, a glimpse at which will amply
repay miles of travel.

Rev. J. Davies occupied the pulpit of the
Congregational Church and preached from
the text "Then went in also that Other disci-
ple which came first to the sepulchre, and
he saw and believed,” John 20 : 8. His
theme was personal influence. The Sabbath
School concert was held in the evening and
was well attended. Addresses were made
by Frank Sammis and F. A. Ferris,and an in.
tcresting letter from their missionary, H.‘

Rev. Mr. Goodscll preached in his own
church, in thelmorning but was absent from
the concert in the evening, to preach before
the Y. M. C. Association. In his absence
Rev. H. N. Dunning addressed the school.
The monthly missionary offering amounted
to $30. The banner was awarded to class
21, for a collection of $6.10, it being the lar-
gest.
The pulpit of the Baptist Tabernacle was
occupied by Rev. Mr. Dunning in the morn-

superior line of communication between the Ohio

ten millions of people, mainly producers, nearer to

and nearer to the political and commercial capitals
of their country. Such is the commandina import-
ance of this Trunk Line that the larger cit‘ of the
West are projecting feeders to connect with it. so as
to avail themselves ofits unequalled facilities as soon
as it completed. Large tracts of valuable coal and
iron lands along its route are passing into the hands
of practical miners and iron manufacturers; a large
