The Republicans of Norwalk nrc request-
ed to meet at Lockwood’s Hall, on FRIDAY
EVENING, Oc'r. 2ND, at 7% ‘clock, for the
purpose of nominating can dates for Tcwn
Officers. Per order. ‘G. N. ELLS,

We have a few copies left of last week's
GAZETTE, containing the Premium List of
the Fair.~ ______
The Little Town Meetings.
'Monday next the annual Town Meeting
’occurs. We sincerely trust that extra care
will be taken to select the very best possible
candidfis, and then a resolute effort made
to elect them. Business is not so brisk but
that one day may be easily and profitably
devoted to looking after the interests of our
town. Men of character and reputed good
judgment only should be selected for the
various town offices. A wise economy and
prudence of expenditures are what the
people desire this year. Our town has been
peculiarly fortunate in its affairs in the past.
We nope to record equal circumspection.
Let all good men and true come up to
"‘ Town Meeting.”
#
The Fair closed on Tuesday after two
days of pleasant weather. There was a full
attendance and it would have been wisc had
a postponement been made early in the pre-
vious week. Our fore-thought is not al-
ways equal to our after thought, however‘
. and the officers and friends of the society
are to be congratulated that it is no worse.
" " Our thanks are due Secretary Wm. D.‘
Gregory for constant favors and assistance
in making up our reports of the melancholy
fair week. The Monday and Tuesday's ex-
hibitions and visitors helped out the bank-
ruptedtrcasuryvery cncouragingly. Though
the entire week of rain put its receipts so
very far behind its inevitable eXpenditures,
that it may justly appeal to the forbearance
of all who were awarded premiums to do-
' nate same to the society. The hope is eve-
rywhere expressed that with clear skies and
under improved organization and auspicies
the Fair, another year, may attain to its
old time usefulness, popularity and success.
At the Town election next Monday three
ballot boxes will be provided and we are to
vote; Isl—for Town oflicers ; 2nd-for

The “ free. soil” fight up Main street, the

and wastefulness of our present system of
:running the Borough grades. It would be
economy and money well expended, to em-

. map the entire limits and thus make all
that is done in the way of sewerages, curbs
and walks conform to a. fixed plan of grades.
What is done under our present loose sys-

The venerable Septagenarian postmaster
of the flourishing town of Waterville
Oneida County, N.‘Y. resigns the office
which he has held “among the mail bags"
for twenty-two years, and heads an appli-
cation of the citizens for the appointment
of his successor as follows :
John L. Bissell,whom the citizens ask
as my successor, is fully competent for the
discharge of the duties of the office; his
moral character is good; his honesty has
never been questioned. His appointment
can but give gener‘al satisfaction.
The editor of the Waterville Time: en-
dorses the nomination thus:
Mr. Bissell is well and favorably known
to all our citizens. ‘A conscientious. up-
right and intelligent gentleman, he will be
enabled to give entire satisfaction to the
patrons of the office, and to the Post
Office Department.
We have no doubt that the selection is a
good one, the gentleman named beiiig of
the Connecticut (Lebanon—“brother Johna-
' than”) stock, nephew of two of our fellow
townsmen, long deceased. But long may it
be before bur respected P. M. may be call-
ed upon to nominate his successor, even to

makes the selection, whether of partner or
successor, may it be wise and good.

plainly for the interest of chief towns to

more frequently journeying by their private

Our citizens enjoyed a most novel and rare
feast of melody in the concert given by the
Hampton Singers, last week, at Lockwood’s
this band of coloredvocslists, we do not
believe to be equalled by any other com-
pany before the public. The bass solo,
“ Old Black Joe,” as a melody, was marvel-
ous, and worth the~ whole price of admis-
sion. There is an indiscribable fascination
about all their religious song's.

A meeting was held in the Franklin street
school house, So. Norwalk, on Wednesday
evening last, to form a society for the pur-
pose of the intellectual and moral'lniprove-
ment of the community of the City of South
Nor-Walk. Rev. Mr. Dunning was chosen
chairman. finches were made by several
gentlemen to the efi'ect that the following
subjec's needed careful attention: The edu-
the greatly increased facilities,‘both' moral
and material,'had been established upon a
for those engaged during the day; The
foundation of- a free library and reading
room, and the providing for lectures of a
moral and at the sametinie entertaining
character._ It was finally decided to appoint
tion’ and report at the next meeting. Rev.
B. N. Dunning, RevDr. Spencer,Mr. Edwin
Adams, Mr. S. T. Dutton, Miss Eliza Piatt,
were appointed such committee. Although
the meetinpwas not very largely attended,
Itill- thosciprcsént were firmly determined
that something of the kind was much need-
ed,and pledged themselves to do all in their
powcr‘to further its establishment.
