Hons; RAILROAD z—Thc first stop looking
in the direction of a. horse. railway between
the Village and the railroad depot, and which
will lead to the early construction of that
much desired work, was taken last week
Tuesday at .Sturges’ Hall, in a meeting of
subscribers to the stock, and the citizens in:
tercsted, but not subscribers. The weather
was of that lovely cast which not only
augurs success, but places every person on
good terms with himself, and inclined to
exhibit the greater amount of consideration
towards others. This meeting, therefore,
had character, and was one of the most
pleasant ever held by our citizens. Mr. Ed-
ward J _ Taylor was chosen chairman and
E. M. Lees secretary. 'A Board of nine
directors was chosen by direct ballot, the
formality of an informal ballot to decide, the
strength of particular candidates having been
dispensed with. After counting the ballots
the following gentlemen were announced as
elected :——
Ambrose S. llurlbutt; Horace Staples;
Edward ll. Nash; Andrew C. Nash; S. R.
Saxtongalamcsl‘l. Lees; Jon. E. Wheeler;
Charles 11. 'l‘aylor; Edward. J. Taylor.
The selection served to give satisfaction.
At a subsequent meeting of directors, Am-
brose S. lIurlbutt was elected President, and
Benjamin L. Woodworth, Secretar’ and
Treasurer of the Company. According to
the articles of association the name of the
Company is “The \Vcstport and Saugatuck

.Thc dramatic club connected with the Me-
chanics’ Library Association will give an en-
tertainmcnt. at‘ the School-house on the eve-
nings of March 20th and 2lst. The plays
have been selected with care and the club have
by constant rcheamals the past four or five
weeks made themselves familiar with them,
and this promises a performance of the excel-
lence usually expected of amateurs. The
plays for Monday evening, “Used Up,"'and
petit comedy by, Chas. Matthews, and a farce
“More Blunders than 0118,”. are selections
that cannot fail to please an appreciative au-
dience; for Tuesday evening the programme
will include. “Deaf as a Post," and an origi-
nal burlctta by Edson Ayres, of Silver Mine,
entitled “The Patent \Vind-mill,” which can-
not fail of eliciting rounds of applause. The
music, instrluncntal and vocal, is under the
immediate direction of Miss Lizzie Crowther,
and promises to be of superior excellence.
The praying band of the 2d M. E. Church,
Norwalk, held services at the Zion’s chapel,
Sunday afternoon last. Much interest was
manifested, and if they continue, good can-
not but come from their efforts. In the eve-
ning, religious services were conducted by
thp Rev. Mr. Kingsbury, of Wilton.
'.The Mechanics’ Library Association recent-
ly presented, through their executive com-
mittee, a valuable architectural work to Mr.
Edward loudon, as a. testimonial of their ap-
preciation of his management as librarian dur-
ing; the year 1875. This is a well deserved
tribute to a faithful officer.

submitting plans for a new engine and Hook
and Ladder House which they propose to

olutions were adopted by the Council em-
powering the Commissioners to erect the
building and contract for a ll lass Hook
and Ladder Truck and equipme 3,- including
two chemical tanks attached thereto, the
truck and equipments not to cost over $8,000.
Harbor thieves have commenced operations
in this vicinity, and it behooves owners of
sail boats to keep a sharp look out. Monday
night, the yacht Tiger, owned by Captain
William A. Lewis, while lying at her anchor-
age'a. few rods above his dock at West
Stratford, was boarded, and the main sail
stripped partly off. The thieves however,
were frightened off by the barking of the
Captain’s dog.

UNRULY Burs—This subject is one of
serious import and is daily becoming more
so. Much has been, and is said about splen-
did disipline in the public schools; of the
control teachers have over scholars during
school hours and even out of them, and of
the advancement made in the methods used
in giving the rising generation what is called
liberal education. But-is the style of doing
things in truth better than that of the past?
Are the scholars of today who wade through
modern text books to get the ground-work
of morals, knowledge and science, Inore
likely to be successful than were they of
forty years ago, who had only \Vebster‘s
Elementary Spelling Book, Daball’s Arilh-
metic and the neW'Testament to help them ':
The conduct of boys in the street now-a-
days after school hours is an answer to that
question. his no uncommon thing now for
them to flourish and fire revolvers, and talk
about the bullets they expect to put through
people who dare question their rights.
Once, the teacher’s injunction on dismissing
his scholars that they go to their homes and
not loiter by the way, was of consequence
enough to be'heedcd. How is it now ? No
sooner are boys out of sight of the school
house, then they begin to contrive and execute
plans for the furtherance of their “advanced"
ideas. Several boys attending a. public
school on the west Sli e are known to carry
revolvers constantly, and believing the stories
they tell, persons coming in contact and op-
posing them, are liable to be perforated with
some whistling missile. And what power
has the teacher, or even the parent [for that
matter, to present. In these. times when
men’s passions seem to be so little under
control; when murders arefl‘equent, and
punishment of the guilty is the exception
rather than the rule, it is essential that our
youth he taught how to exercise their better
judgments, and above all some means should
be adopted whereby fire arms can be kept
from them. Each of these boys may at any
moment get into a passion, and-what an ex-
hibition it would be for them to deliberately
draw a pistol, as they are likely. to do, and ‘
blow out the brains of those confronting
them. It should not be understood by what
is here said that the people’s lives are in
immediate danger, but it is nevertheless true
that, unless the wills of many very unruly
boys growing up around us are curbed, and
greater attention is paid by parents to their
conduct at home and abroad, the record of
crime, already voluminous enough, will ere
long be swelled by details of horrors not
heretoforcdrcamed of.
Clammers, clamour for more clams, and
yet, in no previous winter has the' market
afforded a greater abundance of that desira-
ble article.

CANNON STATION.
0ny: Thursday afternoon last while the wife
of our Town Clerk, B. F. Brown, had gone
to a neighbors, where she had been invited,
with. the anticipation of spending the evening,
their spacious residence was entered—not by,
burglars, but by a party of friends, from sev-
ty-fi‘ip to eighty in number, of whom thfire
were a number of young men and maidens,
not no obtain a marriage license, but to engage
in celebrating the twentieth wedding anni-
versary of Mr. and Mrs. B. The party was
a thorough surprise, and no mistake, neither
Mr. or Mrs. B. having the least suspicion,
notwithstanding which they seemed to enjoy
it. ’It‘hey were too overjoyed to express
themselves in words, but 'their looks and ac-
tions expressed all. The presents .were pro-
fuse, and some of them were not only orna-
mental but useful and valuable. Mr. and
Mrs. :13. are both quiet and unassuming in
their manner, but have won thg esteem of an
extensive circle of friends by their genial and
social manners. They are both lips players,
and entertained the company with some ex-
cellent music, botli vocal and instrumental,
many of the friends joining in singing. They
are always willing to open their late for so-
ciablcs, donations, and suppers, in fact are
ever ready, and have done much to promote
the advancement of the church and sabbath
school. Mr. B. has been superintendent of
the school and led the choir for a number of
years. Mrs. B. has played the organ and us-
sisted. in singing. They have been highly es-
teemed, but there has never been quite so
much expression of appreciation-manifest as
on that evening. At 11 o'clock the call-bell‘
.rang and the Host and Hostess were escorted
down to the large dining hall where they
found a. well-filled table waiting t e reliev-
cd of some of its tempting edibles hich had
been generously provided and spread by the
ladies. We do not wish to be personal, but
must here say that the Cannons Station agent
made himself oflicious in taking an old and
infirm lady, not quite ninety-four years old,
to tea. All were well pleased, declaring it a
most enjoyable entertainment, and left wish-
ing that Mr. and Mrs. B. might enjoy long-
life and great felicity. OLD DAx TUCKER.

was also given. \V. P. Lewis Hubbell ap—
peared as Gen. Washington. Faith, Hope
Liberty and the thirteen colonies were repre-
sented by sixteen yotpig ladies of the Divis-
ion. The Tableau was exhibited at about the
middle of the entertainment and was well ex-
ecuted. As each member was privileged to
invite a friend the attendance was as large as
the hall would conveniently accommodate.
These Anniversary exercises are held as a
re-union of the members and Visitors of the
Division. Mony of those for whom this
meeting was more particularly organized were
unable to'be present on account of the great
interest which they have in the revival meet-
ing being held in their vicinity. . While their
absence was noticed and regretted, the Divis-
ion is gratified that so many of its members
are so ably and so faithfully standing where
duty calls them, ‘
The committee had designed to have the
meeting close at or ‘about ten o’clock but
there were so many able and interesting
speakers present, and all seemed so desirous
of listening to them that the hour of closing
was unavoidably prolonged to twelve o’clock.

Revivals Forty Years Ago.
At a meeting of the Methodist preachers
in New York recently, during reports from
churches concerning revivals and methods of
conducting them, aside discussion arose on
the question whether revivals were as pow-
erful and fruitful of results now as formerly.
Dr. Kcttell asserted the former times were bet;
ter than these, and gave several cases to prove
the statement. ' ‘ -
' Dr. Curry challenged the assertion,
and said statistics would show the contrary.
Rev. \V. P. Corbit. took the side of the olden
times and gave the following account. He
began his religious life in a revival in St.
George’s M. E. Church? Philadelphia, in
1830, and during a meeting . of eight weeks,
seem hundred and fifty persons made a profes-
sion of saving faith in Christ. So general
was the interest among the multitudes» thllt
thronged the church that it was found impos-
sible to invite seekers to the altar and anxious
seats, and not uncommonly five prayer meet-
ings Would be in progress at once in the audi-
once room. One at the altar, another near
the door, one in each of the side galleries 'and
The meeting of
course made some noise, and a petition signed
by five thousand citizens was presented to the
mayor, remonstrating against the meeting, and
asking him to stop it for the peace and order
of the neighborhood. He replied that the
Constitution of the United States entitled all
men to the right of “free curative” in religious
matters, andso refused to interfere. Out of
that revival came about fifty preachers. The
church numbers over thirteen hundred mem-
bers, and a large company under the leader-
ship of Rev. Clms. Pitman organized a socie-
ty'in Eighth street, now Green street church,
which has long been one of the most promi-
nent and prosperous churches in the country.
He also stated that during the first year of
his ministry he and his colleague witnessed
the conversion of twelve hmgdral persons. J.
