WILTON. '
The residence of Mrs. Lockwood, on Kent
Ave.,_has lately been re-roofed. '
There is considerable religious interest in
the Congregational church. Several. have
clearly defined their position, and tliere‘is
hope that there will be more.
Easter service was held in St. Matthew’s
Church on Sunday. The floral decorations
where tasty, and an appropriate sermon was;
preached from Rev. I : 18. ,
The “on S. B. S iissell, of Norwalk,
occupied the pulpit of the Congregational
Church. last Sunday. both in the morning
and afternoon. preaching 'two excellent ser-
mons.
A (‘entennial Supper has given last ‘hurs—
day evening at. the residence of Mr. Joshua
ll. Smith. ilurlhutt street. A large number
were present, many of whom were dressed
in the costumes of ’76. The receipts reached
a satisfactory'figure and will be used to
pureliasl- hooks for the singing class. ‘
Although the weather was somewhat un-
prepitions last. Wednesday evening. yet a
fair audience gathered to hear the Rev. J.
l}. Davenport. lecture. After singing» 'and
prayer the speaker was introduced and deliv-
ered a most excellent discourse. His argu-
ments were clear, convincingand to the point
and no one could fail to have been impressed
by them. In conclusion he urged his hearers
to connect themselves with the temperance
society recently formed in this place, and it
is hoped that many will follow his advice.

WESTON.
There has been no dearth of interesting
events during the past week. First came the
Ladies’ Mite Society at the residence of
Jerome Godfrey, which was not only well
attended but also enjoyed by all, for every-
thing was done by the kind hosts to make it
pleasant. The ladies have now some $60 in
their treasury over and above the amount
already paid for repair of the two church or-
gans. All honor to these noble and energetic
women ! ' ‘ '
Previouslto the close of Mr. Jarvis’ school
there was given, in what we call here the
chapel of the institute, aconcert and dramat-
ic entertainment. The affair was' a highly
creditable one in every sense of the word.
It was got up entirely by the students, with-
out any assistance from the principal or in-
structors. The singing of Mrs. Austin, the
, Misses Hull, Messrs. Jarvis and Lee was
excellent. The skill displayed by Mrs. Cole,
the music Professor, reminded us of thg times
of Thalberg and Gottsclialk. Nor was it any
less credit to her proficiency as an instruc-
tress to listen to the ducts and trio performed
by two of her. pupils. Misses L. and R.
Jarvis. Mr. H. Chapman, :1 'student pre—
parring for Princeton College had composed
especially for the occasion a drama in three
acts,. entitled, “’76,” a patriotic remem-
brance of centennial times, with songs and
tableaux, all well executed. Mr. Chapman,
as Patty McCarthy, the patriotic Irishman
bound to help the colonies in heir struggle
for liberty ; Mr. Post as Je . the negro ;
Mr.- Starin as the main advocate of his coun-
try’s cause ; Miss E. Hull as Betsey his wife;
in fact all the actors deserve great credit and,
there is but one opinion, that the affair was
an admirable one.
. Fast-day was observed by services in the
church, which considering the doubtful state
of the weather was well’ attended.
There was a centennial party at the house
of Mr. Joshua Smith’s in Wilton, attended by
a goodly number from Weston. The quaint
dresses of the ladies and gentlemen created
great merriment. The centennial supper was
a thing .mi generic It would take me an
hour to enumerate all those delicious eatables
spread out on the table, on which, instead of
our modern petroleum lamps, were placed
old fashioned candlesticks and tallow candles.
Old fashioned plates and cups and saucers and
even pepper—boxes reminded us Of the times
a. hundred years ago. There was fine singing
too and a speech and plenty of harmless
recreation. I believe the proceeds are inten-
ded to buy singing bOoks for the Hurlbutt
street musical association.
Apropos, there was a crowded audience in
the Hurlbutt'street school-house Sabbath eve-
ning. Services were conducted by the Con-
gregational pastor of Weston. . We have sel-
dom listened to such excellent singing, under
the leadership of Mr. Smith. They seem to
be all singers and know how to make melody
in their hearts unto the Lord. TON Was.

Saturday evening, Samuel Fessenden,

on his way homeward, a vehicle, containing
twgdrunken men, suddenly came upon him
from around a corner, and before Mr. F.
could take measures to avoid the collision.
his carnage was run into, and he himself
thrown 'out with so much violence, that his
back and side were badly bruised. Fortunate-
ly, no bones 'were broken. _
On Monday night Mr.- Geo. Toms’ resi-
dence on Bedford street was entered by bur-

tive of the institution of the Iloly Eucharist
was celebrated. . .
Good Friday waspobscrvcd generally by our
citizens. Church services were. held, and
most of the places of business in the village
were closed. -' '
Seldom during any spring-tide has there
opened a brighter morning than that which
ushered in Easter Sunday, the day on which
was-connneuiorated the resurrection of the
Savior of mankind. Everything was joyous
cvenlo the birds among the trees, which, as
they piped their gladsomenotes Were inspired,
seemingly, with the significancgof the great
event. Their more rational companions par-
tieipated, in common with the ciiristianizcd
people throughout. the world, in imposing
cerenionials which possessed deep meaning,
and ealled -t'ortli much religious llcvotion.
The altars of both Episcopal churches were
elaborated with natural flowers, emblems of
immortality wrought in pleasing shapes.
The f ragranee of these wusas incense, uniting
and ascending with the iinplorations and ado-
rations of the devout. Characteristic ser-
mons, having for their subject, “Man re-
deemed," were preached, and the organists
and choirs of. bOtli churches vied with each
other in presenting and rendering appropriate
musical selections. While the music was less
elaborate than on some former similar occa-
sions, it was in keeping with the churches
idea, and produced good impressions on the
listening worshipers. Taken altogether the
crowning festival of the christian faith we:
observed as it should be.
It is reported that Representative Wright,
in view of the proposition to place him on the
House Finance Committee of the coming Gen-
eral Assembly, is actively engaged in prepar-
ing for publication, his views on the moneta-
ry question. The idea being _to advance
something which shall tend to assist in solv-
ing a most perplexing problem. Emanating
from a brain so fertile, what the gentleman
may say will have weight, and though his
pleasure in the matter may dictate delay, the
.public, gracefullypondescending to wait, will.
be glad if he makes early promulgation.

sawed into inch and one quarter strips, and
will out many millions of spools. . The
machinery for active operations was shipped
from Hartford, Thursday. _ .
Mr. George J elliffe, aside from very ardu-
ous duties as superintendent of the trout
ponds, finds time to devote to art. His
works in wood carving have already attracted
favorable comment for having produced from
white marble with very rude tools and with—
out instruction, a bust of ‘ a female figure
representing “comedy.” It is so complete in
every part and outline, and so faithful to the
copy from whence taken, that it can in truth
be called perfection. ..- I
Mr. D. S. Gray lies ill, as yet, at his resi-
dence, the village hotel. The physicians
speak eneouragingly of his recovery.
It is a fact that Mr. Wm. B. McCready
has on his place at “Compo Point,” some of
the finest mock in cattle to be found in New
England. He devotes attention to them and
without seeking it has won reputation. Last
week a. well known farmer of Derby, Conn,
porcliased of Mr. McCready a three week old
calf of one of those Alderney’s which have
attracted so much attention at the County
fair. .

The resignation of Mr. John W. Taylor as
Town Clerk for Westport, in which position
. he had officiated for nearly 38 years covering
almost theentire period since the incorpora-
tion of the town, and his retirement from
active business, suggests some thoughts as to
the changes which have taken place during a
little less than forty years. Mr. Taylor set
out in life at a time when such men as
Thomas Rowland, Taylor Hurlbutt, Ebene-
zer- J esup, Eliphalet Swift and others were in
their prime, and as opportunity ofiered were
doing what they could to‘ do benefit the public
and themselves. They have one and all long
since passed away, and it may be asked, have
their successors by example or personal eflort
aided as much as they might have done in
that which concerns the best interests of the
town. Has the town not had to “go begging”
on many occasions when reasonable things
were asked for in her name 7 and has not she
often been sent empty away ? She has ad-
vanced in wealth and somewhat in popula-
tion, it is true, but with all the advantages
in an age of progress which invention and
science affords, should her forward move-
ments have not been more rapid? And to
whom must her ahnost continuous dormant
condition be charged? Thirty-eight years
ago the telegraph had not. been invented, it
had only been thought of. But one short
railroad existed in the country, and the mail
stage was the great medium of travel. The
post-office was insignificant and the mails
received at irregular intervals could be carried
in the hollow of one’s hand .The deguerreo-
type, succeeded by the surprisingly wonder-
ful photograph had not been dreamed of.
Now we may hgar hourly from every impor-
tant point in the civilized world. Railroads
have revolutionized means of travel. The
post-office has stepped up several estates
higher than it once was, and what required
the painful sitting of half an hour to produce
the pictured countenance, may now be ac-
complished in a second of time. By the,
force of outside influences, not exerted spec.
ially in this direction, we have been impelled
as it em to keep pace, though unperfectly,
with he world. Mr. Taylor retires a living
witness of the things adverted to, and with a
consciousness that he has never placed a
stumbling block by word, by vote or by any
act, which might be construed as aiding
retrogression. His name as identified with
the town, is as a ‘ pleasant houshhold word
with all of usand will thus remain so long as
Westport exists. '
Saugatuck has a‘ base ball club, and the
