The St.Joseph's Benevolent Association
with St.Mary’s T. A. B. Society and Sabbath

picnic celebration of the 4th at the Amphi

endar our adopted fellow-citizens observe
with more apparent pleasure and devotion
than the Fourth of July. And this is as
it should be. Whatever the land of their
own nativity, this is now their country, the
home and birth-place of their children, and
all that commemorates the glory and re-
nown of the nation is as much their heri-
tage as that of the native born.
Some idea may be had of the extent of the
Ice Cream trade in Norwalk, when we state
that one dealer alone—Frank Mead—made

His cream is all frozen by Gazette steam

freeze a. batch of forty quarts. The other
dealers abo manufacture largely. Probably
thereisno city in the county where the peo«
ple are uniformly furnished with ice'cream
equal in quality and price to that supplied
by our Norwalk dealers:

by guns and pistols in the hands of their
companions or others. and several were
injured by careless handling of rockets and

ble lack of all fine ventilation of the school

should be charged, we suppose, to thebuild-
ing committee. The other was the clear,
distinct and correct utterance of the scholars
in all their grecitatious. We have never
heard, at any Norwalk school examination,
such good reading, and too much credit can-
not be given Mr. Fairbanks and his assist-
ants for the careful attention he must have
given to this much-neglected branch of
school culture. Certainly no child’s educa-
tion can be complete or “finished,” as the
term is, who cannot readily, and correctly,
and with good intonation, read aloud the
language in which it is taught. And yet
had reading is quite as common as bad spell-
ing, and more distressingfif possible, to both
reader'and listener. We repeat our especial
gratification at the evidence of.,so marked
an. improvement in this branch of our publ‘.
school education. There are in attendance
at this school some tips; hundred children, in

reading, etc., and succeeded admirably in
making themselves agreeable in the social
reunion which followed.
Dr. Fitch’s boarding school for boys had
its examination on Tuesday. The lads Were
put through an extended and severe drill in
mathematics,and evinced a very thorough-
knowledge of this perplexing but most need-
ful acquiremeut, There was a quickness of
comprehension and readiness of response, in
both the mental ' arithmetic and highest
mathematical problems, quite remarkable
for lads so young. The exercises in the
classics were necessarily abreviatcd for want
of time; so, also, were the exercises in decla-
mation and composition. But enough were
given to indicate the some thoroughness in
these departments that was evinced :in
mathematics. This school is a flourishing
and most successful one, and .while its fame.

Sums Pun—Nothing can be more
cruel and nothing more fooliih than to
place children where they must be dressed
every day in from and fashionable clothes,
and their.trecdom to plazac'urtailed for the
sake of appearance. W tchildhood needs
is perfect freedom among the things of
nature—freedom to romp,_to make- mud-

trees, to chase butterflies, to gather wild-
flowers, to live out of doors from- morning
till night, and to do all those things that
innocent and healthy childhood delights in,
in cheap, strong clothes provided for the
purpose. Exactly that which childhood
needs, manhood and womanhood need—
perfect liberty and perfect carelessness.

that it entails diseased appetites upon oil'-

Experiments have been lately made in the
Botanical Garden at Berlin as to the efiects
of ordinary gas on vegetation. Gas was
conducted through ‘ lpes to the roots or
various trees cont nuously for several
months. The principal conclusion arrived
at was that 25 cubic feet of gas daily dlfluscd
through 570 cubic feet of earth is sufficient
to kill trees of any species, and the more
quickly the more compact the upper layer

recently, which was of a-peculilir nature.
Two houses stood side by side, and the

so arranged that the water sheds fell upon

undermined it. The owner oft esecond‘
house sued the owner of the first for dam-

The last few years have been made no-
ticeable by the frequent discoveries of old
rascals and new planets. In thecase of the
latter there is frequently a doubt and some-
times cveu au‘authoritativc contradiction
known as rascals, there is no doubt and .no
contradiction. The very fact‘ that as a
general thing they disappear immediately
after discovery only strengthens the belief
in their existence. It will not therefore
startle any reader tolearn that another
such character has gone, and by his disap-
pearance is made manifest. It is Horton,
ofvariOus places in Pennsylvania, whose
exploits were briefly announced by tele-
graph last week. his man by altering
stock certificates il'om one share to one hun-
dred, or two to two hundred, and then
pledging the stock thus raised, as collateral,
succeeded in 'raisin considerable money
with which he specu ated extensively. and
quite rofitably. His frauds were perpe-
trated in Lancaster. Penn, but his transac-
tions with the money raised there, were in
New York, Philadelphia, and Boston. - The
moral of the anecdote'is to bankers to be
more careful about their security. Raised
certificates are becoming too 'frequent
articles of the mono market. But beside
the lesson for ban on a circumstance or
two recalled since Horton’s departure may
be interesting as aids to readin character.
He seldom showed himselfin .t e day time
but stayed within doors reading and sleep
ing,,and he never allowed his picture to be
taken. No'co yof him could an where
he found to be p the detectives. T is moral
is obviously to be distrustful of everyboddy'
who has notapicture of himself‘ at has ,
and let the vain man. smile happily at the
thought. Search the show cases of the
photographer and find out the honest men
of the‘ city; remember whom you owe a
picture to, and don’t put ofi‘ the presentation
any longer. It has‘an evil' look—perhaps
much worse than the picture—Courant.

There is no pain which the Centaur Lini-
ment will not relieve, no swelling it will
not subdue, and no lameness which it will
not cure; This is strong language, but it is
true. Where the parts are not gone, its
effects are mansions. It has produced
more cures of rheumatism, neuralgia, lock-
jaw, palsy, sprains, swellings, caked-breasts,
scalds, burns, salt-rheum, ear-ache, ‘&c.,
upon the human frame, and of strains,
spavin, galls, &c., upon animals in one.
year than have all other pretended remedies
since the world began. It, is a. counter-
irritant, an all-healing pain reliever. Crip-
ples throw away their crutches, the lame
walk, poisonous bites are rendered barm-
less and the wounded are healed without a
scan. It is no humbug. The receipe is
published around each bottle. It is selling
as no article ever before sold, and it sells
because it does just what it pretends to do”
Those who now suffer from rheumatism,
pain or swelling deserve to sufi‘er if they
will not use Centaur Liniment. More than
1060 certificates of remarkable cures, includ-
ing frozen limbs, chronic-rheumatism, gout,
running tumors, &c., have been received.
We will send a. circular containing certifi-
cates, the recipe, &c., gratis, to any one re-
questing it. One bottle of the yellow wrap-
per Centaur Linimeut is worth one hun-
dred dollars for spavined or sweenied
horses and mules, or for screw-worm in
sheep. Stock-owners—this liniment is
worth your attention. No family should be
without Centaur Liniment. J. B. ROSE &
