ed and made practical. Not so much,
perhaps, on account of any sober, religious
sense of duty in its recognition, on the part
of the masses of the people, but nevertheless,
throughout christeudom it has come to be a
day of7 sweet, social and domestic obser-
vauces. A day 1n which the mad greed of

We learn that the Committee appointed-
7 at a meeting of citizens of the various towns.
on and near the liue of the proposed rail-
way from New York to the town of Derby,
held in this place on the 15th inst, have
opened books for subscription to the capital
stock of a company to be organized under
the provisions of the General Railroad Law
passed at the last session of the General As-
sembly of the State.
Several large subscriptions have alreedy
' been made, and others are promised, and we
' believe that our people are in earnest, sud.
that they will, one and all, do - their duty,
and that ere many weeks Varepassed we shall
- be able to say to ourreaders that the petiple
.of N orwalk are soon to have another line to
New York,'a line flilly as shortas the New
York «in New Haven road, and owned and
controlled by Connecticut people, in fact a
“people’ s road, " in all respects first-cliss,
with passenger fares and commutation at
popular prices, which will give an impetus
to the growth of the townson the line here-
7tofor’e uuexampled in our State. Many be-
lieve that the stock will bea paying cue
from the _7commencement of the running of
the trains, as the road will be built for cash
at a moderate cost, thus saving to the stock-
holders the' immense amounts gobbled .Eby
certain parties in the construction of the
'NewLYor-k and New. Haven road. Citicens
T oi Norwalk, now is your time to push the
good work along, and let every one who
‘ can command the means subscribe for this
stock, and thus you will benefit yourselves
‘ and at the same time add immensely to the
prosperity of our town and county. .1

world’s favorite poet, JohnG. Whittier. The
other is for a still younger class of readers
and entitled “Picture Poems,” by Marian

A Christmas jubilee was held at the Union
Chapel, West Norwalk, last evening; Rev.

their services for the occasion.
A Christmas festival for the children was
held last evening at the Baptist Tabernacle,
Rev. J. Davies, pastor. A series of stereop-

A7 very large audience attended the
Christmas Eve services at St. ' Paul’s church
last Sunday evening. The Rector, Rev. Dr.
Mead, was present and took part in the ser- '
vices, but was prevented by hoarseuess from
preaching. Rev. C. M. Selleck delivered an
interesting sermon, specially prepared . for
the occasion. The church was elaborately
and beautifhlly trimmed with evergreens
and Wes brilliantly illuminated with gas
and a profusion of candles. We havenev'er '
before seen the church so artistically deco-
rated. Conspicuous-in the decorations over
the chancel was the legend, “We saw Hrs
Star in the East and are come to Worship
Him,” while fesloons, wreaths, stars, &c.,
were displayed in profusion but in exquisite-
taste.
The 2d Methodist Sundav School Christ-
mas Festival’was held last evening in the
lecture room of the church, and was a. very

The Christmas Concertof the Second Con— V
gregational Church on Sunday evening, was I
was tastefully decorated with the banners
of the various classes, and with evergreen
wreaths and inscriptions. In front of 'the
pulpit was a large canvas, bordered will
evergreen, upon which the classes would
rplace a single letter and then rise and repeat
its suggestive lesson, (1 la Eggleston,--1rntil
the sentence—“ J csas our Saviour and King”
—-was completed. Around the galleries,’ 1n
evergreen letters was-the passage,— “ Unto
you is born this day a Saviour, which is
Christ the Lord " while circling over the
pulpit remained the recent convention pas-
sage—“ We being. many are one body in
Christ.” The flag to the right of the pulpit
was red and to the left blue, so that with
the white canvass the national colors were
blended. The body of the house was dense-
ly packed with the children of the school,
while the sides were filled with parents,
children and others. The galleries, lobbies
and aisles were also crowded, and. many left
the church unable to press themselves in.
Frank Ferris, the Superintendent, con-
ducted the exercises. '1 csingiug was su-
perb, the recitatious very fine, and led one
to question whether he had not drifted into
the grand and beautiful responses of the
Episcopal church. The recitation of Paul
rendered with deep feeling and pathos.
The following poem by the pastor was re- '
cited from memory most impressively:
ran cnoWN or cannot.

The ladder stretching through the air
Up tO‘Hls throne in heights Elysian;
The way of sufierlng. death and loss—
The way or glory thro’ the cross. .
It, is the mystic will of God— -
Death is the dlsmal road to life;
. The birth of souls is bought with blood.
Their bliss with pain,Vtheir peace with strife;
I The worst are rausomed bv the best:

When sin and hell had wrought their worst.
And death's black night of gloom was gone,
Forth from His grave the Conqueror burst' ,
And radiant angels, robed in white. '
Hang o'er His head their crowns of lightlI
The crown of truth stronger than lies!
The crown of love stronger than sin!
The crown of life to him who dies

The crown with souls for jewels set— ,

Ah many crowns adorn His brow!
And many th es to Him are given!
All powers ones it to Him shall bow'. "
All princely powers pad thrones in heaven!
Each heart that sets Him on its throne,
IAdds to His brow one golden crown!
on when, my soul, shall I aloft,

And see my King whose face so oft . —

And hear HlmV speak His word to me:
‘ As thou erown'sIt me, so crown l thee!"- _
I crown thee king with me of earth!
I crown thee king with me of heaven!
Copartner of my Godlike birth,
7 Joint heir of all that G611 hath given!

My fellow-king sud priest of Goal:

Shall image back His shining crown; .
And my transfigared garments glow

' And Ishall know how 1m divine
Hath crowned alike His cross and mine!
How the stern cross that erucifies I: I
My sinful heart and makes it bleed.
.lias been of Heaven the precious price,_
And of the crown the springing seed:
How suitcringis the royal road ‘
That leads me up to heights of God!
'Mld Christmas Joys our souls shall learn -7
How Christ for us the crown doth gain :
I Christ shall in' us with pain be born
That Christ in us with joy mayIrelgn.
80 shall for 11s the angels’ stratus
Sing of as old on Bethlehem’s plains.
At the moment of Mrs. Parde‘e’ a reading
a cross was set upon the summit of thecau-
vsss and as the pastor came forward to re-
hearse his composition, a beautiful crown in
white buds and flowers, made by Mallory
& Downs, Was raised to the centre, while at
the left corner a bright golden star was in
pus} tion. These suggestive emblems seemed
to add greatly to the adult as well as juve-
nile appreciation of the entertainment.

The picture was held forth by Messrs. D.

an approprlate speech by the Pastor. Mr.
Benedict, who had bctn taken cojnpletely
by surprise, responded' in a most happy and
even touching address.
Addresses were neatly and briefly made
by the Pastor, Superintendent and Ex—Su-
perinteudcnt. Just prior to the close of the
exercises, the Superintendent presented a
beautiful rosewood- writing case to Mrs-
Emily Psrdee, the gift of her class of Sun-
day-school boys. This gift, also, seems to.
have been a surprise, and shall we say if,
out loud l—her response was not only the
shortest but the best speech made on the oc-
casion. There was a deep feeling and pa-
thos in the few words of thanks, which cer-
tainly came from the heart. The interest in
the exercises culminated by the Pastor-sen-
terprise, in havingslr'ps of his poem in readw
iness for distribution at the close. All in
all, it will be a memorable anniversary for
all-connected with the South No'rwalk Ssb- '

Correction.
In publishing the annual Report of the

it as free from errors as possible to get such
a document, but in correcting it's serious er-
ror occurred which did injusti to Select-
man Sellesk. His bill for “ se ces as Se-

8780. In comparing the proof sheet with

was discovered in Mr. Bouton’s sdouut,

that the mistake occurred, especially as Mr.
Selleck has been very earnest in his endeav-

are to have Frank Mayo 1n the charac-

management of Morris Simmuuds. Pigeon

fire scenes will be presented. Mr. Mayo,
we are assured, will be unusually well
supported, the cast including such perform-
ers as Budworth, the Minstrel, Iand other
good actors.
