WILTON.
Surgeon Chas. B. White. U. S. Army, is
stopping at Wilton, called thither from Co-
lumbus, Ohio, his station, by the dangerous
illness of his mother, the widow of Dr. A.
L. White, of New York city, now a resident
0f Wilton. Before his present service of fif-
teen years in the U. S. Army, he was knowa
in this county. The Dr. has just returned
from a six years service on the Indian fron—
tier.
The Rev. J. G. Davenport officiated in the
Congregational church Sunday last.
Another Temperance meeting under the
management of Wilton Division will be held
shortly in the Zion's Hill Church, if arrange-
ments can be made. , 7,
A Wilton man is elated over ’a c0rn—field
with stalks fourteen feet high.
There is a man in Wilton who can make
out his bill in five different languages, and
yet he is contented as a day laborer. Where
now is the assertion, that highly educated
men are lazy .9
Now is the season for annual school meet-
ings in which the rules of politeness as well
as those of parliamentary practice are too
often held in abeyancc. The school meeting
of the North Wilton district last Wednesday
evening is said to have been of a very spicy
nature and to have afforded abundant enter-
tainment for those who are pleased with
course remarks The inhabitants of No. '7
(Cannon’s Station) have been holding a series
of interesting school meetings in which the
debates were of a decidedly acrimonius
nature; personal reminiscences being revived
with more order than would be prompted by
the dictates of good judgment. _During sonic
of the debates frequent-calls were made for
Mr. Ure A. Lyur, but ashe did not respond
it was supposed that he was unavoidably
. absent.
The dormant condition of both political
parties in Wilton, seems to indicate that the
issues at stake in approaching Presidential
contest are not considered of sufilcient im-
portance to warrant any especial acts of polit-
ical belligerency. WILL TONIC

The vigorous efforts made by certain dem-
ocrats to prove that Gov. Tilden was a zeal-
ous war man in 1860, have recalled President
Lincoln’s stm of the California judge who
produced a irginia witness to prove that he
had never been hostile to the Union. The
witness swore that the Judge was asloyal as
he was himself, but on being questioned
could not recall an instance in which he had
exhibited any loyalty. At last he was asked
“ Well, when Fort Sumpter was fired on,
what did he say ?” “ I disremember what the
Jiidge did say, but I know he felt just as I
did.” “ And pray, Sir, how did you feel ?”
“ Well, the fact is I always have felt that
the firing on Fort Sumpter was premature. ”

WESTPORT.
Let’s see, the parties who are so blatant
about the horse railroad,—that its construc-
tion was uncalled for—that it will not pay,
etc., are the same who, five or six years ago,
after $21,000 were appropriated by the town
for a carriage bridge at Saugatuck, suddenly
felt their bosons heave with the spirit of
economy, and conspired together for an in.
junction restraining the selectmen from pay-
ing “anything on account of that are bridge,”
keeping their hostility active in suits at law
until the town had to shell out to the tune of
nearly $29,000 instead of $21,000. So inter-
ested (1’) were they then in the town’s wel-
fare that, when it was known she must be
victimized, these parties came to her relief (P)
and magnanimously loaned her the money to
get out of the scrape, thereby making the
very investment on good security at a safe
rate of interest they had been looking for.
The bridge, though expensive proved to be a
public benefit. So will the horse railroad de-
spite the bowlers.
The Stamford Herald was correct in its
statements to the effect that Capt. Haynes
. and Theodore Lautenbach were not drowned

The traveling public has not been incon-
venienced by the tearing away of the west
section of the village bridge. Many have
faith to believe the old structure will stand
long after those who found fault with it are
sleeping in the dust—and the contractors are
so slow about commencing the expected work
as to warrant that belief. '
Ciin't have a ride on the horse railroad this
week. Got to rake and smooth off the track
yet. All takes time. Must be thoroughly
done, too. And then there may be one or
two rainy days, you know. Set the inaugu-
ration down for the middle of next week.

Which can be trusted for Reform.
. [From Bristow’s Burlington Speech]
. The democratic party, attempting to take
advantage of the temper of the people, has
unfurled a banner bespanglcd all over with
the word “Reform. " But earnest and sin.
cere reformers will not be deceived into the
belief that that party has either the purpose
or ability to carry forward substantial reform.
They do not forget that the very system and
practices which we s‘eek to abolish were in-
troduced by the democratic party more than
40 years years ago, and were continued so
long as the party retained power. The dem-
ocratic party could no more be trusted to re-
form the civil service than a lean and hungry
wolf to guard a sheep-fold. There is _ some-
thing grostesquely absurd in the appearance
of the democratic part with a “reform ban-
ner and under the lee. ership of one who was
graduated under the political school of Tam-
many Hall. The traditions and practices of
that party forbid belief in the sincerity of its
new pretentious in favor of reform. What
it now wants is to “reform” the republican
party out of power and itself in. The demo-
cratic cry for reform would be silenced by
its party leaders the moment it came into pow-
er. .
Not so with the republican party. It has
proclaimed itself in favor of reform while it
is yet in power, and does not propose to
spare its own followers or adherents in carry.
ing out its promise. It has chosen for its
leaders men who are fully committed to
,thorough and radical reform, and whose
lives and public career give unqualified as-
surance that they will faithfully fulfill what
they and their party have promised the coun-
try shall be done. ‘ _‘
The republican party has achieved great
results. It has wiped out the blot of slavery
. and made its restoration forever impossible.
It has laid broader and deeper the foundation
upon which the fathers ,builded this great re-
public. It has given vitality and practical
operation to the grand declaration that all
men are created equal. Ithas met and crush-
ed the monster scorpion which has been
a standing menace to the peace of the country
and the integrit of the Union since the
adoption of the ir 'nia. and Kentucky reso-
lutions of 1798-99. t has secured on indissol-
uble Union. It has done many things wisely
and well, and, as a party organization, it has
not absolute] failed of the achievement of
anything un ertaken by it. It was born of
the people’s aspirations for freedom, and has
shown itself courageous in Striking down op-
pression and wrong, and setting up liberty
and right in their place. It is a party of
ideas and convictions, and has ever been
ready and willing to learn wisdom from ex-
perience. It new attacks a vicious system of
civil service, and has chosen for its leader a
man conspicuous 'in his own state for his
well-matured views in favor of the purifica-
tion and elevation of that service. Such a
party may safely be trusted to 'carry out
needful reforms. The only hope for reform
thorough, radical and complete, is in the suc-
cess of the republicauparty. ‘

Tm: “‘ BARREL or Monav."-—When as old
a politician and wealthy a man as Mr. Tilden
carries off a fiercely contested nomination,
charges of corrupt expenditure are the merest
matter of course. The air of St. Louis has
been thick with such charges this week. Days
ago, the New York Times was informed by
its correspondent on the ground, that Tilden
(by his agents) was footing the hotel bills of
majority of the southern delegates, and gen-
erally, showering his money right and left;
never before had “the power of an endless
purse" been 'soillustrated in our politics. The
reported assertion of a loud~mouthed Tamma-
ny worker in a corridor discussion—that Til-
den had drawn $414,000 from a New. York
bank, within two months, to his knowledge,
and hadn’t bought any real estate, either——
will pass for what it is worth, precisely noth-
ing at all.‘ _ Somewhat more serious are John
M. Glovers statements about southern edit.
tor who have told him that Tilden attempted
to bribe them with “ immense" sums, about
the lavish provision of railroad passes, etc.,
made at Washington for, persons desiring to
attend the convention as Tilden men, and
about the gentleman who confided to him, as
a supposed friend of ‘the governor’s, that men
had come on New York with large supplies
of the sinews of war. More serious still is
a suggestion Which we find in the Chicago
Timethat the sudden conversion of south-
ern and southwestern delegates from Hen-
dricks to Tilden, was due to information on
the subject of Tom Scott’s road, whichthr‘e'w
new light, for them, uponthe path of duty.
“ More potent than all else,” wrote the cor-
respondent, “ is the personal influence of
Watterson, reinforcedby what his advocacy

That such‘things are said ‘isn't endence, by
any means, that they are true. But they give
pause'to a good many sincere reformers who
were originally inclinedgon general principles,
to swing their hats for Tilden—Springfield

A Speech by Fred Douglass.
Fred Douglass happened to be at Martha’s
Vineyard last week when an impromptu
meeting was held at the grand stand.
Mr. Douglass was introduced by the Rev.
Dr. Morrison in a few appropriate words, and
on rising to speak was very cordially greeted
by the audience, many of whom had never
seen him before, thoagh all were familiar with
his name.
He said, I came here without expecting to.
be called upon to speak ; I came as you did,
for a respite from businessand for a breath.
of pure sea air. The President said to me
that it would be gratifying to many of you
to hear a few words from me, and when on
account of my physical condition I desired
to be excused from speaking, he said some
'here who had never seen me would like to
_ see-me-if nothingmore, andso I amhere. If
you look at me you can gratify your curiosity
and I have complied with your request. If
you were to see my back as I walk down
your streets, you might say there goes a man
and perhaps even if you were'to see my face
would recognize my manhood. But seeing
this large and respectable congregation, I feel,
that I ought to say something. We are a
great nation and people, the best housed,-
best fed, best cared for of any people on
earth. It was said by some of .these gentlea
men that you came here to learn to be hum.
his, but from my observation of the beauty,
taste and wealth displayed in your charming
cottages and manner of life here, I am not
impressed with the idea that Martha’s Vine-
yard is the best in all the world to learn
humility. Our national progress in the first
century of our history which has just closed
has been remarkably rapid. But the progress
of truth has been exceedingly slow, and at
great cost. The proposition of abolitionists
is that every man is himself. That he Was
born for himself, that he lives, in a sense,=
for himself, that he must die for himself,
and that he must go to the bar of final judg-
ment for himself.
This proposition was formerly in dispute,
and those who proclaimed and defended it
were opposed and insulted, mobbed, stoned,
egged,_and by the way, the American cogl‘e
did not lay very good eggs in those days._
The people divided, the churches divided, '
political parties divided, and finally the nation ~
divided.
But great changes have come to pass {in the
world. ;
The right to worship God according to the
dictates of the individual conscience was
once in dispute, and men were put in- the
stocks, the eyes and in some instances hearts
were blocked out, and other varied forms of
inquisition and torture were employed, but
slavery is gone, the power of persecution is
gone, but is the spirit gone ? We have been
told that we must forget the past, and “shake
hands over the bloody chasm ;” but while I
would not keep alive personal animosities, I
am not here the apostle of the gospel of for-
getfulness. How can we forget, when the
fearful and terrible effects of the conflict are
continiiallyibefore : our ' eyes i?" The empty
sleeves, the crutches, the wooden limbs, the
maimed in many ways, the heroes of Ander-
sonville andtLibby prisons, all of these are
with us, and constantly remind us of the cru-
elties and tortures of that conflict which we
cannot forget if we would. I am willing to
forgive on national ‘ grounds. ‘Howacan
you forgive malice when it still rankles in
the heart ? I am ready and willing to fort
give when a spirit of penitence and restitu-
tioniis manifested, but when three thousand
men are shot down in Louisiana, simply, for

in 1864 has started the rounds to the press
once more. He was serving in. the army at
the time, and having been nominated for
congress, was" "r'eQuested to go“ home and

LINIM-ENTS.
'White, for Human Family.
Yellow, for Horses and Animals.
These Llnlments are simply the wonder of the
world. Their effects are little less than marvel-
,lous', yet there are some things which they will
not do. They will not cure cancer or mend broken
bones, but they will always allay pain. They
have straightened fingers, cured chronic rheuma-
tlsm of many years standing, and taken the pain
from terrible burns and scalds, which has never
been done by any other article.
The White [Aliment Is for the human
family. It will drive Rheumatism, Sciatica, and
Neuralgia from the system; cure anbago, chil-
blains. Palsy, Itch, and most Cutaneous Erup-
tions; it extracts. host from frozen hands and
feet, an'uthepolior‘lof bite-and ulna- of
venomous reptiles; it subdues swelliugs, and alle-
viates pain of every kind. -
For sprains or bruises it is the most potent rem-
..cdy ever discovered. K The Centaur Llnirnent is

To the sick and bed-ridden, the halt, and lame,

To the poor and distressed who have spent their
money for worthless medicines, a bottle of Cell-

The Yellow Centaur Liniment
is adapted to the tough muscles, cords and flesh of
horses and animals. ”It has performed more won- .
