Mr. F. Boylst'orr is expecting a cargo of
lumber from Vermont soon, and intends to
start up the baby carriage manufacturing
. business on a larger scale than ever before.

Oystersarc improving in quality, and if

crrrployment to enable them to get. through
llre winter comfortably. -
It is reported that. Mr. and Mrs Simons,
now residing in Stamerd, will move back to
Rowayton iii April.
\Ve are sorry for our old friend, Joe Cow-
perwaitc. IIis pet squirrel Dick died yester-
day. Joe says he cannot stay in Rowayton,
and will soon start for New Jersey and re-
maiu‘there until his screw is over.
' A goodly number ol‘ our citizens,. ladies'
and gentlemen, attended the masquerade ball
given at lloyt’s Hall, South Norwalk, on"
\Vcdnesday evening, Jan. 12th, and were all
well pleased with the evenings enjoyment.
Mr. Mei-win has made several repairs on
the old lecture room: ' ' ~
A season ticket; holder in the Winter Night'
Concerts informs us that Truman is incapach
taled,by.cold. arid the leadership of the band
devolves upon his faithful assistant Maurice.
The water in the city‘s reservoir rises slow-

the residence of R. F. h-own, listp, Thurs-
day evening next.
Mr. T. K. Hubbcll has several old deeds
and an old account book which ante-date the
revolution by a number of years. Those deeds
in which the form is printed, speak of “ our
sovereign lord, king George the 2d,” whereas
thos: written contain no allusion whatever to
his Majesty, from which we may infer that
as early as 17.22 the King was ignored when
possible. On one page of the old account
book the gross charges amount to 1:3 105, and
the charges for “rum” to :32 3s 1d, these
taken from the first leaves 6s 11 for the other
necessaries of life. This, of course, is not. a
sample page, but the charges for rum ‘are
mOrc frequent than those for any other sin-
gle article. . If this gives us any insight—and
it. probably does as far as it- emf-into 'thc
drinking customs of our fathers, we have
certainly become more temperate than our
ancestors. More latitude was allowed on the
orthography of those days than at the present
time. “Dear skins" were bought, "fryau
pans" sold, and molasses charged as “ meios—
is," “lasses,” “larsis,” all of which show
the “ spelling school” to be an invention of
comparatively recent origin. \Yii.i.’l‘oxx,
RIDGEFIELD.
The “ Veek of Prayer" was observed in.
- the Methodist and Congregational churches,
the attendance being large. It has been fol-
lowed up by interesting meetings (hiring the
week.- . ‘ ‘ .
The Episcopalians gave their Rector a do-
- nation visit on Thursday evening. A goodly
number were present and had an excellent
supper at 11 o’clock. . ‘
At Jones’ Hall,- on Thursday evening, the
hidies of the Congregational church had air
old-fashioned Tea Party. The principal fea-
ture of interest \ 'as the Ancient Kitchen, fur—
furnishcd with old relics of former days, even
to the crockcryand dishes on the table, which
contained old-fashioned ‘eatables served 1);. la—
dies and gentlemen in the costume of the old-
en tinre. Music. was rendered iii the old
style by a quartette, and the large concourse
of people who accepted the invitation, “come
to supper” were well pleased with their en-
tertainmcnt.
The following evening, there was a “ inod- .
em" supper, given by the ladies of the M. E.
church, for the benefit of 11.0 Organ Fun-.1.
And as there was a large gathering of people
there is no doubt it was a success in every
way. ‘ ’
Thus far we have. had winter without snow
and sleiglring. The suddcnchangcs from mid-
summer warmth to temperature of zero are
conducive to lung difficulties and sc 'ereeolds.

Dear Father and Mother:
“The semi-centennial of your wedding
coining on this day in the centennial year of
American Independence, ought to have been
celebrated with some outward .show and dc.
monstration on the part. of- your children and
grand-clrildrcn. I caironly Congratulate you
that the time you. have" dived together on
' H V ' cars—that your
family are ‘so loviuglyjibltcd,iii‘jgood feeling,
and above‘ all to t.lranl;-.;.t'_l_re;;qood Lord for
having spared you theseunany years t6 see
your children of the third generation : .your-
selves in good health, and they, in the provi-
dence of God, promising to be brought up iir
hislove and fear. To know how rnnclr we
have loved the “Old home” and those dear
parents who made it home for us, you will
my have to recall the many times we have
demonstrated it by our presence with you in
joy and gladrrcss, in Sorrow; and sadness,
since'thc days when we first nrade acquain-
tance with “ Auld Lang Syne.”
Mr. and MrsMarvin, were married January
8, 1820, the year which marked our Semi-Cen-
tennial as a free nation, and upon the anni-
versary of the battle of New Orleans. Their
“ Golden W'eddiirg ”therefore, occurring in
the nation’s centennial year is significant, and
calls to the mind pleasing associations.

woods back of the residence of Mr. A.\S.

A movement is on foot to convert what is
known as “Point Imperial,” into a burial
place, to be called “ Grove Point Cemetery.”
\Vliile the spot may be desirable as a cem-
etcry, there are 'two arguments against its
adoption, viz: first, a tract by its situation so
lovely, is better calculated for residences for
the living; second, it is not really needed, as,
by actual computation, the eight cemeteries
in town will at the average rate of yearly
burid’i therein allowing six by two feet for
each person buried, last two thousand one
hundred and twenty-011C years. A period of
time sufficient to satisfy the rrriird of the'
most dubious doubter of the capacity of our
places of local Sepulture. . i

The cows are .watered' before feeding that

perfect digestion, and, consequently, a larger
secretion of milk from the food c'onsumcd.

have-good reasons for believing so. there can
be no doubt—for the best reason that they
have tried so many things without deriving
any benefit. After- devoting nearly 17 years
specially tothis branch of the profession, he
can assert, iriost. positively, that Catarralf is
as curable as any other disease. As every one
everything, and no matter how many times
the wrong way may be tried. success cannot
be expected to attend the effort.
General practitioners do not-understhud the
treatment of the disease. Skilfull though
they may be in the general practice of medi-
cine, yet. in this branch of the practice their
inability is manifest, and for the best of all‘
reasons, that they have not. the experience
rrcceSSary. To treat Catarrh succeszully, a
physician needs to devote as much atteiftion
and study to it as to any other branch of the
profession, and airy physician who will do so
will meet with as much success as he would
iii any other ypeciulty. To those who are
skeptical and disposed to throw this down
and pronounce it stufi", humbug, etc.,.a few of
the choice expressions used on such occasions,
he says stop; don’t condemn and denounce
what: you know nothing of, but think for a
minute, and see if you mightnot be mistaken.
If the fact. of tho cur-ability of it, rested merely
on his word, it may then be a. question open
for argument; but when the assertion is cor-
roborated by the positive statements of persons
well known to the community for their intel-
ligence as well as for their integrity and posi-
tion, no one will doubt, but. those in whom it
is innate to doubt: everthing, and those who
from interested motives, be they actuated by
jealousy or irnpecuniosity, consider the high-
est attribute of their profession to shit" and
distort; all facts which detract: alike from their
pockets or their pompous self-assumed skill.
As air evidence of his skill Dn. Rown sub-
mits féstimonials below from persons that are
too well known in Norwalk to require further:
comment necessary, more'than to say that. his
treatment of Catanrh is entirely original with
.lrimself and differs entirely from anything
used before for the same purpose, inasmuch"
as by it the medicines are conveyed directly
to the parts affected, which has never before
been accomplished. When. constitutional
treatment is necessary, the ,romedies used are
such as to have a- direct effect in purifying
.the system and building it up, thereby bring-
ing all "the organs into action, and restoring
to them that healthy tone and vigor which
they had previously lost. ’
.Thc treatment. is such that it can with case
be used by any one. It is painless and can be .
continued at home, and without: interruption
to business.

Du. ROWE—DEAR Sm: . ,_ '
Yours has been received and it affords me
much pleasure to say that previous to your
commencing the treatment of Mrs. Dunning
for Catarrhal and thrbat affection from which
she suffered so severely, I had given up all
hope of her recover , and had told our children
that they must: prepare their minds for the
loss of their mother at no distant'day. "When
she saw your advertisement, I had no hope of
her ever being benefitted by any treatment
whatever, but was willing to gratify her in
any effort that she wished to make for her
comfort or the restoration of her health while
she remained with us. It; was but a shirt;
time after the commencement of your treat-
ment that I saw he? health was improving
rapidly, and now I am happy so say that it is
better than at any time since we have known
each other. I think now she has us fairapros-
pect; of a long life as any. one who is in good
health and strength. Any use you wish to
make of the above statement for the benefit of
those who are afflicted with Catarrlr or disease
of the throat, you are certainly welcome to.
Rionann DUNNixG.
131:. ROWE 2—DEAR Sin:
'It gives me pleasure to write yog of the
permanent cure I have received from your
judicious and successful treatment of Ca-
tarrh from which I suffered so much. That
which I called a “severe cold in the heat ,”
had increased its severity year by year» until
the AutumnI first called on you. At that:
time, I was convinced that a longer neglect
must inevitably lead to the disease'of my
lungs as my throat was already affected con-
siderably and severely, and my physical
strength greatly impaired. I had not knowl-
edge of you beyond‘a treatise of yours which
I had. read; and I may add that: the prejudice
natural to one strictly educated to the views
of the regular practice, did not aid me in
seeking one of whom I knew’ so little. But I
was unable to find any help through the or-i
dirrary treatment of Catarrh, and therefore
followed my inclination and went; to you. I
was satisfied after the application of your
medicines, that; if a cure could be effected,
.your method could do it. I have carefully
followed your directions, and though from its
long standing and severity of my case my re-
covery has been slow, I am happy to say it
has been sure, and I cannot but wish for all
who are suffering from this disease: a prOmpt
and speedy relief by your: sure, sensible, and
certain help. ' . '
Yours respectfully,
MRS. L. J. CURTIS, Norwalk, Conn.
Nonwamr, Conn, J-uly 2d, 1871.
DR. Rown z—Dnan SIR : ,
About four years ago I placed my. son un-
der your care for treatment: of Catarrh and a
difficulty of the throat, with which he was so.
riously affected. I am happy to say that you
permanently cured him.
Yours truly,
.. ANDREW S. IIAMMERSLEY.

DISCHARGES FROM THE EAR. -
All cases of discharge from the car can be
cured, even though the hearing cannot be re-
stored; Parents should not trust to the silly
idea (often advanced by those who know the
absurdity of it, but; yet do it. to cover up their
inefficiency) that children wilfibutgrow the
difficulty. One in every hundred may, for
there is no rule without an exception to it,
but what parent: wishes to run the risk.
tended to as snmf as possible and not subjected
to the morti‘dcation certain to follow in after
life both from the less of hearing and footed
Odor arising. from the discharge. the latter of
which makes its presence disgusting t9 those
with whom it may be brought in contact.
[From 0ch Y. Daily Tribiuze]
A son of Mr. J. P. Cape, of Port Republic,
Atlantic County, N. 1., who has been deaf for
si'xteen years, with discharge from the ear
and Caturrh, caused by scarlet fever, has been
entirely restored to health by Dr. Rowe.
The case is an extraordinary one inasmuch in!
the. young man was fourteenmonths old when
attacked with scarlet fever, and before cour-
meneing to use Dr. Rowe’s remedies \vas so
deaf as not. to be able to hear, unless spoken
to in a very loud tone of voice. ertterly the
Catarrh had affected his head so as to prevent
him from studying. Now hecan hear us. well
as any one, and has commenced his studies
again.

LINIMENTS.
So nearly perfect are the receipts of these wou-
dcrful pain-soothing and healing Centaur Lini-
ments, that we can confidently say they will alle-
viate any pain arisingi‘rom flesh, bone or mus-
cle derangcn‘rcnts. ,Wc do not; pretend that they
will mend a broken leg or exterminate bolls,
but even in such cases they will reduce the inllama-
tion and stop the pain. N can we guarantee the
whlskoy. Temperance is as necessary to a'
proper physical, as mental condition.
The White Centaur Llnlmonttspartic-
nlarly adapted to all-cases of Rheumatism.
Lunrbago, Neuralgia'. 'Eryaipclas, Itch, Spralns,

Ear-ache. Headache, Ulcers, Old Sores, Broken
Breasts, Sore Nipples, Sore Throat, Croup, Dip-
thcria, etc. The most: 01‘ these complaints the
Centaur Linimcnt will cure; all ofthcrn it will
benefit... It will extract ll'rc poison from bites
and stings, 'and will cure burns and scald;
without a scar. The following is but a sample of
a thousand similar testimonials : '
. “ANTIOCII, In... Dec. 1. 1871.
“ My wife has, for a. long time. been a terrible
sufferer from Rheumatism. She has tried many
physicians and 'many remedies. The only thing.'
which has given her relief. is the Centaur Lini-
irrent. I am rejoiced to sav that: this has cnrcd'lrcr.
-* r * \V.II. RING, Postmaster.
It is an indisputable fact that the Centaur Lini-

i‘ected by any preparation in cxistcncc,—Iikc

Ono dollar, or even fifty cents, invested in Ccnt_

amount of money paid :i‘of‘me‘dical attendance.
When physicans are oallemmcy frequently use
this Liniment, and of course charge several prices
for it. , . . .
The Yellow CentaurLiniment
is adapted to the tough skin, muscles and flesh of
tlreanimal creation. Its effects upon severe cases-
of Spavin, cheriy. Wind-Gall, Big-Head, and
I'oIl-Eyil, are little less than marvelous;

.We have volumes of testimonials describing
cures of Sprains, Kicks, Galls, roll; Evil, Big-

to be without a bottle of Ccntaaniniment, which
any day may prove worth twenty times its cost.
