creditable. . In apples, pears and grapes,
the exhibition was unusually large and fine.
The Crosbys made a special and successful
show of Floriculture. Their exhibition
was n~grand one, and most creditable to
themselvesand the Society. There was
quite.‘a large display of Musical Instru.
ments. and fine art goods. There were scv-
cral carriages of superior finish, lrom‘fip’lof 1
col manufactory, and harness ot' superibr
workmanship.
Outside the tent there‘ were the usual ex-
hibits of Hay-Rakes, Tcdders, and patent
Mowers: The mock auction men, sweat
leather gamblers, and wheel-men seemedinl
the ascendant, while rum was apparfcptly'
sold without restriction. We doubt wheth-
er the money reaped into the Society?s_
‘O.

good the patronage withheld by those
who do not approve of letting the devil
loose at a country Fair. We have rebuked,
this thing here whenever it has cropped out
in the administration of the County Fair,
their faces against these glaringxiniquities.

other time, while the material for filling
could be deposited by the huge mud-digger.
Meeker Brothers have taken advantage of
the presence of the digger to fill their dock
on the East side. They have sunk an old
canal boat. and are filling it with the ma-
terial taken from the channel. , A complete
and uniform line of docks on both sides of
the harbor would be a decided improvement
angnethat would certainly prove re’mu-
ne ive.

. . Can Gen. Taylor serve as}. Selectman?
is Themuch mooted questionat South N or-
walk. The question is raised because it is.
understood that he is still a voter in New
York City, and has never.becn made a free-
man in Connecticut. His friends hope that
,he can for they think him qualified for the
pdsition by reason of his Congressional ex.
perieuce,—to say nothing of his intelligence,
sound sense and good judgment.
By an accidental omission in iooting Gen.
Guyer’s vote in the first voting district, the
General was deprived of three hundred and
ninety. He had these and plenty more to
spare, and it made no manner of difference,
'as Mr. Toots would say. The General’s vote

Shepaug railroad, which were extremely'
beautiful. A carriage block was also ex-

.as marble. So beautiful a stone must com-

The Horse par. -. the shew was a com-
__ plete. success. There were single, double;
.and four-iu-hand teams enough to have
given a creditable character to any State
Fair. The trotting and ruun' was [in-
tensely exciting, and apparent ngrossed“
the leading interest in the exhibition. There
were several very fast horses present, and
the trotting seemed well and’dec'orously
done._ ' .
HOd‘ Friday, some eight thousand tickets
[were sold and the grounds were densely
packed with people. Fair weather and the
fast horses drew the crowd this day. ' The
wheel gamblers, sweat leather swindlers,
and~jewelry frauds. we're in an ecstacy of de-

ful feature of their fair, it was net for lack
of the exercise of vigorous lungs on the
of the vagabonds.
The “skin” of the Danbury News Man
was stretched. and tucked in front of the
Grand Band Stand. It was certainly a lead-
ing curiosity. We had no idea it was s
thick. . . ' .
The Society have a. charming location for
, their Fair, ‘ and altogether the exhibition-
may bepronounced a success.
The result of the Town election was sub-
stantially as reported in the Gazette of
, last Tuesday. The exceptions then alluded
" to were as follows: Lewis R. Doly, Down
. Town, was defited for constable because
- his name was on two tickets and the middle
initial was not printed the same on both
_-tickets,.ther6fore the election was given to
W. S. Hanford, 2d, who received the highest
vote on the democratic ticket; for Highway
Surveyor in the Third District, Marvin
Raymond was defeated by W. L. James by
means of a counterfeit ticket with the latter
name substituted forthe former; in the 5th; .
Highway District, Andrew Smith was elect-
ed over W. M. Raymond. Town Clerk
Selleek and Treasurer Bennett were on both
the Republican and Citizens tickets and
wercdionored with few scratches. ,Gen.
Guyer was also on both tickets for Assessor
and securedwlfl'f’l votes, showing much less
than his fair proportion of scratches.
Messrs. Ely and Tuttle were both defeated
by ‘fi‘litt-le game” of the democracy; up
s town Mr..Ely was scratched, Illa-Hyatt sub.
stituted, and a persistent effort was made to
get Republicans to vote the doctored ticket
-.-e.vcry. Republican vote thus secured
counting two in favor of Mr. Hyatt. At
South Norwalk,'l‘uttlc was scratched and
Taylor substituted. , ‘ 5 '
If the “scratching" of ballots continues to
increase as rapidly as it has done for sever-
al years past, the counting of the vote will
be a serious matterandinvolve the townin
.monsidcrable expense. Last week, in the
first District, four experienced and able
counters Were three and one half hours in
counting 875 ballots; in the South Norwalk
District, the counters were seven. hours in
figuring out the result,—lon‘ly' 447 ballots
having'b'ee'n cast according to the check
list! ! ‘
Our Winnipauk friends have made appli-
cation to our Board of Water Commission-
ers to -have a water main extended up- to
that romantic hamlet. This would be a,
great acquisition to them and increase the
volue of real estate there', aside from its.
paramount importance as a means of pro-
tectionfrom‘firc to their mill property. ‘We
hope the application will be responded to,
as the laying of the piperwould be a god-
sendao our4d’ay laborers who are, so many
of them, out of employment._ 7
At the Sunday school concert‘at the First

lng,'a very interesting letter Was read from
Rev. Henry S. Barnum descriptive of life
and icenes in Turkey in Asia, where he has
been located for several years past as a
Missionary.

Messrs. Crofut&Knapp have struck a
new-land profitable euterprise._ Wé'learn
that they are “running full” on ladies
winter hats. _ These are made of the finest
fur and the product of their Factory is said
to rival those of French manufacture and
importation. As these hats are to'be “the
thing" this winter, among the ladies, and
are withal a most sensible as well.as
beautiful head-gear, we trust our friends
may have a steady and prosperous run on
.this line of goods for the winter. Our town
is certainly doing its part in keeping the
humanextremities comfortable and pre-‘
sentuble in its many hat and shoe manu-
factories. '

reaching home he found a gash cut through

-Prot. Cromwell in Norwalk Again.
We understand that the Ladies’ Associa-
tion and the Mission Band have made ar-
rangements to present several interesting
entertainments to the people of Norwalk
and vicinity during the season. The first on
the list is more than usually promising—be-
ing, as will be seen by the advertisement in
to-day’s issue, one of Prof. Cromwell’s
renowned,“ Trips to. Europe,” to come off
next week, beginning Monday night. This
series will be entire] y different from the last.
During the week we may visit Italy, Swit-
zen-land, Germany and more beside! without
one minute of seasickness or a single One
of a traveler’s discomforts. To cur young
folks, too, it will bemrth more than a
year’s lessons in Geography. We are sure
that no one who saw the Professor’s former
entertainment will fail to go again, and any
who do not go will deprive themselves of a
rare treat. Prof. Cromwell comes to us
this time making his own arrangements and
programme and giving the ladies a'share
of the profits.
We congratulate the ladies in advance
upon securing the Professor's assistance in
their benevolent work, and we do not doubt
that both will receive the patronage of an
appreciative public.
Prof. C. has been in Providence for the
past two weeks Where'be has met with an
enthusiastic reception. . The following is
clipped from the Providence Press :,
“In speaking of this exhibition it is only
just to say that it ranks anything of the
kind that has ever been‘ given here. The
subjects of the transparencies are not only
of great interest, but the plates themselves
are of the choicest and most perfect descrip-
tion, (a thing most unusual,) and what :is of
equal importance, they are shown with
every advantage of perfect appliances and
skilful handling. A brief description by
Prof. Cromwell of the scenes presented en-
ableslhe spectator to fully appreciate what is
being shown, and these descriptive running
comments have the great merit of freedom
from prolixity and tedious details.”
