Another lire, undoubtedly incendiary, oc-
curred iu the village, west side, early Fri.
day morning, destroying John 'Scandlon‘s
' blacksmith shop, and C. H. Taylor’s can! of-
fice. The lotal lossamountsto about $1200.
Unfortunately for the property owners,
Compo Engine was so out of order that it
. could not housed. The fire, therefore, had
to take its course. The night wasdamp and
very still, but for those conditions, a much
more serious conilagation might have result-
ed. Mr. Taylor losses 0. fine platform scale,
and Mr. Scandlon, all his tools and much
stock. During Friday cotton and fine shav-
ings, saturated with oil, were found under
Messrs. Staples & Co.'s storehouse, which is
convincing evidence of the evil minded per-
sons. The fire was promptly discovered by
parties near, and every effort made to put it
out. One lady on the east side,who former»
ly resided near the scene ofthe fire, was
startledby the bright light shining in her,
room, and hastily slipping her everyday;
garments over her night dress ran down to-
wards the bridge to ascertain if her old-
boarding place was burning. She was dis-
covered by Mr. McGork, night watchman,
who, instructed by a village resident, arrest-
ed her, thinking she was a suspicious char-
acter, and he would not listen to explanation
or cntreaty, until Mr. Patrick Cunningham,
who knew the lady, assured the official of
his mistake. Four fires within the limits of
the town during a period of less than five
weeks, impels the people to ponder well the
question of introducing a steam fire engine,
to replace the ancient, but not to he despised
“Compo” hand machine. They say, “if we
are to be burned up, let us show the world
that we do .not submit without an effort to
avert." Mr. E. H. Nash has recently dona-
ted the sum of $50. . .
The special town meeting held last Thurs-
day to take into consideration the propriety
of appropriating the sum of $800 to finish
Mr. E. P. Smith‘s road on the east side, ad-
journed without action. The road in its
present condition is reckoped among the
best in town,and during theistic interrup-
tion to travel: by reasonof broken bridges, .
was found quite convenient :as a means of -
reaching the railroadfs‘t‘ib‘tio’n.‘ Mr. Smith
thinks "a.- few hundred drillers will answer
hispurpose. '

winds from .tlie'ilortli, and carried the ther-

supposed to feel jolly. m
According to an accepted theory of sym-
bolic propriety, the r t‘ergreens in the church,

Christmas, must thi

Lent, and its solemn services. Next Sunday '

Several interesting games of chess were
played at the residence of the Misses

Chess is now played to the exclusion of all

It took 'over a week to sink a line of drain
tile for the relief of Rev. John R. Williams’

pily for the gentleman, he can again light

without scowing the same across the cellar

him the: footlight frame and causing con~

The following fact is worthy of notice.
It is said of a merchant of very high stand-
iug.

Rev. Mr. Mingins’ lecture on “New York
as it is,”,drew a fine audience last Tuesday
night. National Hall seldom contained a
more respectable crowd as to numbers. The
lecture itself was replete with good points
which the hearers appreciated by frequent
applause. The Rev. gentleman Las ad-‘
vanced in popularity since ‘his advent in
Westport, and to Mr. Joseph Hills he owes
no little of his success. That weather joke
of Joseph’s did the business for Mr. Mingins.
The closing lecture-of the “Star" course will
occur next Tuesday evening.
For the third time this winter the ground
is here and every vestige of snow gone. It
is an actual fact, cattle may atthis time take

The 26th'of Jan. seldom witnessesa similar ‘
picture. Investors in, and holders ofsleighs
feel that they would embrace the first op-
portunity to,sell out. No frost in the ground
to speak of, and the weather has been so
mild at times during the week, that people
could sit with opén windows with impunity_
There was a sort of “ surprise at the resi-

Drona-0mm. MANNEns—In the too fre-
quent way of communicating even usefitl
counsel, there is almost invariably some-
thing to vex, often insult, in the arrogance
which assumes authority, and exercises a
spirit of despotism. Now, if men were as
willing and as ready to give reasons as they
are to give rules, much mischief might be
prevented, and some good might be done.
Pride is undoubtedly gratified by being able
to deal out its animadversions. and self-re-
gard is flattered, but at a terrible expense, a‘
great sacrifice of benev'olenee.~ Yet it is no
small part of good breeding and good mor-
als to give appropriate advice lapropriately.

closed with a strong stock market, abundant
and cheap money, and with the banks in a
more satisfactory condition than at the same
season for several years past. The imports
since Jan. 1, amount-to $19,761,625, against
$15,374,522 of produce exports, while at
this time last year the record for the same-
period was $26,734,669 of imports against
$12,554,062 of exports. The South has still
large stores of cotton, and 'the West" of
rain and pork, for which there is a good
oreigu demand. NO new railway bonds
and only a few bonds Of the old roads are in
the market, and, in the opinion of bankers
and brokers of long experience, money will
inevitably be very abundant for along time
to come, and high prices and reckless spec-
ulation will be the result. At this time last
year gold was being exported in large quan-
tities to Europe. The total exports of specie
since J an. 1 of the present your amount to .
$2,050,020, and-exchange is now below the
point at which it can be exported at a profit.
It is believed that, unless the financial condi-
tion of England greatly improves, American
securities now held abroad. will be return ed
to this market, and thus large sums of inter
est money be saved to the country.”
In spite of the-success of the experiment
of excluding corporal punishment in the
Chicago schools, the Board Of Education of
that city recexitlydecid ed not to abolish it
formally and legally. The chief argument
seemed to be that,c0rporal punishment being
forbidden, suspension was the only resort,
and this. becoming too general, was disas-
trous. ' The rule prohibiting whipping was
lost by two votes.
Hattie Lombra, of Meriden, three years
Old, seems to have had her share ot the mis-
fortunes which infancy is heir to. Some
time ago she broke one of her arms, and af-
ter it had been set and was getting strong
again, she fell, and broke it again. . That
arm was allowed to get entirely well, but in
afew days she fell down stairs and broke
one of her legs. Site had hardly recovered
from this injury when! she fell again and
fractured the uninjured arm.
