again led Will. Rusco into a scrape. This
time he mi'ic an attack on Lewis Burt. Ratli-
er than to risk the expense of a trial he vol-
untarily paid a fine of seven dollars and- costs.
His case on a former indictment came before

costs. The fine has been paid and he is again
at large, but it is hoped that he will hereafter
refrain from such costly luxuries.

~ The potato bug appears to the best advan-
tage on a dry, sunny day. _
The welcome rain, so long delayed, that
even the cuckoo gave up the business of
prophesying it, and retired to shade in disgust,
has at last come, and given us a good wetting.
The dismal forebodings of drouth are quieted
for a time, yet there is a great prospect of a
short hay crop. ‘
One of those detestahly mean things (there
have been others) occurred Saturday night,
between twelve and one, that dispel the idea
any one may have of realizing, in this quiet
community, any Utopian dreams. One of
the few street lamps that have been kept burn-
ing every moonless night from the start, was
purposely broken by some seamp. It was a
specimen of pure “cussedness,” and makes
one ask the use of culture or good example.
The lamp was supported for the public good,
and not for private advantage, and yet to sat.
isfy a petty spite, the multitude was made to
suffer!
He is a public benefactor who makes two

ler, for many years the efficient teacher of
the school on Church Hill, is detained at her
home in New Canaan on account of sickness.
Speaking of school houses in our vicinity
we must not forget the one on Hurlbutt street,
much credit is due to the building committee
and the citizens generally for their zeal in al-
tering and remodeling the old rickety affair
of former years, so that it now presents to
our view one of the finest and most comfort-
able school houses we have seen for a long
time. Miss Cannon is the teacher.
Sunday evening religious services were
held and the house was well filled.
The health of our town as a general thing

l’rof. Cole, of the W. M. I., is getting the
school ready for examination previous to the
summer vacation. H the scholars do not
pass off very creditably it is not owing to his

ful, untiring instructor we have not seen for
many a day. May the vacation soon coming.

show. Last fall Hotchkiss engaged cider of
a farmer furnishing a cask to put it in which
held exactly ten gallons. In due time the
cider was delivered, and a bill for eleven gal-
lons was presented. This surprised H. who
knew the exact measurement of the cask.
He however paid the bill, first informing the
farmer that he had a hill against him for dam-
ages to the 10 gallon cask caused by over-
straining the hoops trying to get eleven gal-
lons into it.

Died. At her residence, J unc 5, Mrs. Ed-
mond W. Taylor, in the 54th year of her age.
This lady was much loved by those of the
Social circle wherein she moved. She was ill
but a few days, an affliction of the hand tend-
ing to induce great bodily suffering, and un-
expected death. The funeral occurred from
the Congregational church Friday afternoon.
Rev. Mr. Nash of the M. E. Church offered
prayer. In his sermon Rev. Dr. Sanderson
paid a well merited tribute to the character
of deceased as a christian lady, most impres-
sively showing how dimeult it would he to
fill the place in the church and social circle
caused by her removal. Rev. Mr. Brooks of
West Haven followed in words of hope, to
the efiect that Mrs. Taylor was not dead, but
through her works and good example, was
alive, and would continue to exert an indif-
once upon those she had left behind. The
remains were buried in Evergreen Cemetery.
Marksmen know how diflicult it is to hit
with a bullet a wild 'goose during flight. It
is said of the late Daniel Murray who lived
near the Noah Nash place 60 years ago, that
he one day fired an old King’s arm at a flock
of wild geese, and brought down the leader,
a twenty pounder, which struck on the roof
of an out house. Next day that goose made
a grand dinner. , -

The civil cases connected with the title to
the Americus Club property are on trial at
Brid eport. Col. Hoyt, of Greenwich, and
W. 1%. Seely, of Brid eport, are counsel for
Messrs. Morton and 1t end, and Messrs. Wood-
ward and Perry, of Norwalk, and J. B. Cur-
tis, of Stamford, appear for the respondents.
The following "sentiment,” hits the nail
squarely on the head :—“It isn’t fair for per-
sons to ask their home dealers for six months’,
one year's or two years' credit, and then
when they can scrape a little money together,
pack off to the city to. do their trading, mak-
ing the merchants at home, who have accom-
iflod ed them, wait for their pay."
gA r. John Horton was at work on an
out-building at theMorton House,on Monday,
he lost his equilibrium, and attempting to
leap to the round was impaled on a hoe han-
dle. Dr. cad was summoned and found
him in a very precarious condition. Should
severe inflammation ensue there would be no
hope of his recovery. Mr. Horton is a very
estimable man, unmarried and about 35 years
of age. .
