Rev. Mr. Coley's school for boys opened
last week Monday. One indication pointing
to the school‘s success is the fact thatXthe'
principal will permit his pupils to use Web-
ster‘s Elementary Spelling book, and Smith‘s
Grammar—two works which, from their sim-
pliciry and plain practical rules, are entitled
to be called standards.

“American Br.-akfust Cereals" is the name
of a new and delicious preparation of Barley,
Oats and Wheat, taltingjlxe place of the

The beautiful wall papers so artistically put
on, referred to by us some time since, in our
descriptive account of Colyer’s New York
State building at Contentment Island, was the
handiwork of Gharus Brotherton, one of our
Norwalk mechanics. Brothertonlis one of
our best painters also, and has most pleasing
1y brightened up the tints‘upon a- large hum!
ber of our village residences the past sum-
mer. That of Andrew Selleck, is perhaps
t‘le most perfect exemplification of his trans-
ferring skill. He is now finishing up the
printing at the First Congregational Church.

Some time since, a correspondent gave an
account. of a very interesting and successful
operiliion performed at. South_ Norwalk, by
Dr. James E Barbour, in'dissccting' between
his paiient’s ribs and cleansing and curing an
abeess l’oriiied upon the inner lining of the
Cavity. Our correspondent.erroneously stil-
ted this to have been the first and only opera-
tion of the kind ever attempted here. Drs.
Mosman, and Hitchcock successfully perform-
ed identically the samc operation upon a pa-
tient residing almost exactly opposite Dr.
Barbour on Elm Street, several months since,
and as in the case of Dr Barbour, saved the
life of the patient.

It is seldom a'shorter or more successful
game of bluff is played than that narrated
to having come ofi'in New York recently
between our friend S. E. Olmstead, and .one
of his illustrious foundry predecessors. The
latter meeting the; former, thus accosted
Olmstead with hopeful enthusiasm—“I say
Olmstead,'I’ve just got released fron‘n un-
pleasant coxnfilication here, and want to get
back to Norwalk—just loan the two dollars?”
~"Well I declare," said the bland and ;self-
possessed Olmstead, “if this isn’t the funniest
adventure of my life,-—I was just going to
ask you to loan me that same amount!”
This _ was followed hit a mutual stare. nLunr.

to each others view, amid the hurrying
crowds thronging the city's streets;
.A—O————
lxrnizssrixo Baud—The 'Beers family
owning and occuping the former residence, in
our village, of Taylor Sherman, the father of
General Wm. T., and U. S. Treasurer John
Sherman, have brought out of an unfrequent-
ed recess of their old garret, a leather fire bun].-
et, on the side of which, in painted letters
now almost obliterated the owners name “T.
SHERMAN.” The aged Mrs. Nathan Beers
says there used to be quite a strong fire assd
ciation or company when she was a child, the
only apparatus the members had being' one of
these the buckets and that Taylor Sherman
was a member of the fire company, and there
is no doubt but that this was his implement
for aiding in the arrest of any confiagration
that might break out—' injthe village. The
bucket may be seen ati‘tlle 'blaCksmith Shep
of Frank Beers, on Leon'ardstreet.

Dmiz-Ajlettcr of peculiarjntcrest, .just dis.
covered by one of the clerksfiiu the -war de-
partment, While'looking over some o'f'the ol-
der;files, was laid upon the desk of the sec-
retary of war Monday morning.» - It is from
Major Sumner, and is addressedto the' secre-
tary of war, asking that his sonCharles'—then
a lad of fifteen—might be appoin'ted'to a mil-
itary cadet -ship at West Point. “The letter rc-
cites that his son is a youth, without bad hob-
its, well grounded in' the common branches of
English, witli‘a_[fair};knowledge of French,
knowing something'pf Latin and Greek, and
prepared to enter Harvard college. His pa-
renis destined him for a classical course of
studyfibut the lads preferences seemed to be
for a military life. Major Sumner said that he
couldn’t claim the appointment foranydcserv':
in g of his own from the country,buthis father,
the lad’s grandfather, Major Sumner, had
done good service in the revolution. He ad-
ded that he referred by permission to his
member of congress, Daniel Webster, and
ventured to say that Webster knew him well
enough to know that he would not recommend
anybody to office unless he had merit, be he
son or no son. The letter is written in a fair
round hand, and is well preserved.

When Charles A. Dana was managing the
Tribune, a leader writer went to Mr. Greeley
to complain that Dana would not print his
articles, “ won‘t he ?” said Mr. Greeley, in his
peculiar tone; “ d—n him, he won’t print
mine either.”
This bit of humor was more than equaled
on one occasion, by President Lincoln. In
company with Congressman Brandagee, we
had taken a peremptory order from the Presi-
dent to Secretary Stanton to have a change
made in the personnel of the Provost Marsh-
all‘s oflicc at Bridgeport. The burly war
Secretary read ther order, and instantly tore
the paper into fragments, and petulantly
throwing the bits into his waste basket, re-
marked—“it shan‘t be done.” Our friend
Brandagee, who was a little off color when
he started out on the mission in our aid, was
now fairly black in the face with'indignatior,
and hurrying back to the White House, in-
formed the President of Stanton’s having con-
temptuously tom the order to shreds and de-
fied the order of the President. "Did he
treat you that way 7” said Mr. Lincoln with
a mischievous twinkle in his eye—“ Why,
that ain‘t half as bad as he serves me some-
times.” The hearty laugh that followed,
cleared away every feeling of‘insulted dignity
and then the good President again remarked
“Hold on, I‘ll write an order to Fry (Provost
Marshall Gen. Fry.) and youth dodge Stan-
ton, and go up stairs and give it to Fry and
lie’ll mind me, but Stanton uoa’t,’ —and Fry
did mind and the 4th Ct. District had peace
again for a season.

A Brooklyn man writes to the Sun: “I-
drank more intoxicating liquor from the year
1857 to the last day of 1873 than any other
person I ever heard of; and in the meantime,
knowing this sure cure, did not practice it on
myself, but, for fun, did practice it on many
others, and effected permanent cures. . The
remedy of the cure is this: When- a person
finds he must have a drink, let him take a
drink of water, say two or three swallows-ms
often as the thirst or craving may desire. Let
hini continue this practice. 'Ilis old chums
will laugh ; but let him persevere, and it will
not be a week before the appetite for any kind
of stimulant will disappear altogether, and
Water be taken to quench the natural thirst-
If at any time the victim should feel a crav-
ing, let him take the first opportunity and
obtain a swallow of water, and he can pass
and repass all saloons. When he goes home
at night he will feel satisfied and be sober and
have money in his pocket. I commenced
this practice the first day of 1874, and never
think of taking‘a drink of stimulants."
Asorusn BLIND Ton—Down ill the Pang
. Yang, that delectable region of lower Ulster
that representsthe lowest stratum of human-
markable blind men in the country. Tom is
totally blind, yet he does a full day’s work in
every kind of farming labor, hoeiug corn,
digging potatoes, laying stone walls, thresh-
ing, storing hay in the mow—in fact, almost
anything a farmer has to do. He is a' favor-
ite hand with employing farmers, as he is
a very faithful and intelligent worker, need-
ing ‘no’ supervision, and always turning out
as fulla day's work as any laborer on the
farm. He walks the highway with no more
hesitation than a man in full possession of
his sight, makes his way t5 any-of the neigh-
bors’ houses without. the least trouble, and
goes to Centerville, a distance of four miles,
with no inconvenience. He chops all. the
wood for family use, getting it in_ the forest
near by, into which he goes alone. He can
also distinguish the different qualities of
wood, and also goes into these woods, finds
the cows and brings them home. The well
near by has no curb, but Tom goes to it every
day alone and draws the water for the family.
Blind Tom is about sixty years old, and has
lived in his cabin at Pang Yang nearly all
Dislifc.‘ He'is a' colored man, and has a
smart wife and eight children.—Romlout (N.
Y.) Courier.
How the Czar Travels.
Even as the Russians are surpassing the
Turks in the field, so does the Czar excel the
Sultan in Oriental magnificence. Whenever
he travels by railway he makes use of his own
private train of seventeen carriages, fitted up
in die mnst luxurious style.
Every journey of the Czar and his suite
from Piojesti to Bucharest (sixty kilometers)
costs 6000 francs ($1400) for- railway expen-
ses. At the Imperial tabla no less than 4000
bottles of champaigne are drunk every month.
The proprietor of the Hotel Brofit at Bur-
charest has undertaken the canteen of the
Imperial headquarters. For this purpose be
has provided four especial conveyances, each
drawn by four horses, although he is only
bound to supply cold vians—preservs, cavlare,
anchovies, salmon, etc. A bottle of Bor-
deaux costs fifteen francs ;of Rhine wine
twenty francs, of champaigne twenty-five
francs. A sandwich of bread and butter
and Swiss cheese costs three frances. Some
be gathered by the fact that M. ’Broft has
just received a consignment of preserved veg-
etables from Paris, of the value of 127,000
francs. And yet we are told that the luxury
of the imperial mess is as nothing compared
to that of the English reporters l—London
Examiner.
Dr. Bacon, professor of surgery at Yale, has

Yale college opened Thursday. There were
287 applicants for admission to the freshman

An Arkansas editor says that when he was
in prison for libeling a Justice of the Peace,
he was requested by the jailer “to give the
prison a pull.”
Two little edible dogs from China have
been received at the Acclimatization garden
in Paris. These interesting canines have
heads like pugs, are very small and fat and
short-legged, and are eaten usually when two
months old, after being fed exclusively on
rice and milk. They are eaten roasted and
served in cuts with soy.
. Mr. William Astor, of New York, is hav-
ing a new pleasure yacht built, which will be
the largest schooner: yacht in the world, and
will cost a quarter of a million. She is built
for southern cruising in the winter season, to
which her owner is partial. n addition to
her working sails she will have an immense
suit of racing canvass for regattas and match
races.
Confidence is a plant of slow growth,
whether it is shown in business, politics or
religion. Men will support other men, finan-
cially, or politically, if they have confidence
in their integrity and industry. The people
will uphold men in whom they have confi-
dence, and they will patronize those firms in
business whose word has never been ques-
tioned or found untrustworthy.
John Craft, a sailor, returned from a long
voyage yesterday morning, met a young wo-
man at 143 Liberty street, courted her in the
afternoon, and married 'her in the evening.
He drank so’freely of lager at the wedding
supper that he had to be arrested. His bride
followed him to the Church street police sta-
tion and begged for his release, saying that
he never had been drunk before since she had
known him—N. Y. Sum.
The amount of labor performed in the
N. Y. Post Office and the promptncss with
which it is executed may be learned from the
statement that one day recently, between the
hours of 8 and 10 in the morning, 100,000
letters were sorted, and sent out by the car-
riers at the 10:30 delivery. Nearly a quarter
of a million letters were handled during the
day, and every letter was ready for the first
delivery after its receipt at the office.
The Sioux county (Iowa) Bambi says that
Roger B. Young made a novel trade last week.
Theodore Franklin, a Sioux county bachelor,
wanted a wife, andhe told Young that in case
a woman was secured for him in twelve hours
he (Young) should receive a cow. Young
said that was easy; set out on his tour of in-
spection, and within the required time ap-
peared before the love sick Franklin with
Miss Alice Traer, formerly of Calleope. The
cow was delivered, after which Franklin and
Alice were married. ' '
Amodern writer, who has a faculty for
presenting thoughts in a remarkably strik-

in teaching children that they have souls.
If you do not think their souls to be some-
thing which is not themselves. For what
a man has cannot be himself. Hence,
when they are told their souls go to heaven,
they think of themselves as lying in the

A Bundle lor Master.
“I read it in a bookthat I borrowed from
Mrs. Jaycox last week,” said Mrs. Deacon
Doubleday. “And, really, to think of the
tricks these miserable robbers practice to rob
and murder every one who has a little money.
is enough to make one's flesh creep. Did you
bolt the front door, Jemima ?”
“Yes, aunt,”.said Mrs. Doubleday's pretty
niece.
“And put up the chair ?"
“Yes."
“Deanne there's no one in the house but
you and me and Josiah; and a boy of thir-
teen don't count,and we can’t be too cautious
with that seventy-five dollars in the house.
So I’ll just go and nail up the cellar window,
and put up the blinds inside of the milk-room.
I shau't feel easy until your uncle Doubleday
gets back from Buffalo.”
“But what should harm us, Aunt Clarissa!”
said innocent Jemm'
Mrs. Deacon Doubleday looked owlishly
at her niece through a pair of spectacles, and
took two nails and a screw out of her mouth,
the better to reply.
“Jemima, you don’t know the world.
You’ve no idea of the artifices trumped up
nowadays. I tell you I read it in a book
last week. It was called ‘A Bundle for Mas-
ter.’ ”
“What was, Aunt Doubleday ?"
“Why, the story, to be sure. And Ideclarc
it made my hair stand right straight up on
end with horror. "
Jemima opened her pozcelain blue eyes
very wide, and nearly dropped the kerosene
lamp she was holding.
“Do tell it too me, aunt,” gasped she.
“ I dunno whether I ought .to or not," said
Mrs. Doubleday, sepulchrally, as she mount-
ed on a barrel of apples in order better to'get
a purchase at the cellar window, through
whose grating nothing larger than a Norway
rat couldpossibly have squeezed. “We're all
alone here, and your Uncle Doubleday won’t
be back until tomorrow morning—and it
might make you nervous !’_’
“0h, aunt, do tell me," pleaded Jemima,
setting the lamp on the refrigemtdr top, and
creeping closer to the skirts of her aunt’s pur-
ple merino dress.
_ “Well, mind you don't scream, then," said
Mrs. Doubleday. “ It was two women left
alone, just like us—with' a sum of money in
the house—" 1
“Just like us!" gasped Jemima.
“And, at dead of night, two men knocked
at the door—” ‘
“Gracious mercy l” shrieked Jemima:
“And handed in a big bundle that wasn’t to
be opened until the next day,'they said—"
“It—it wasn't a cofin, was it 2" fluttered
Jemima. -
“N o—it was a man rolled up like a bundle
of carpeting. A brignnd—a burglar 1"
“Oh! oh! obi” Jemima was developing
hysterical symptoms.
“Mind, you promised you wouldn’t scream,”
reproved her aunt, severelyfi
“Well, I won’t l" protested Jemima, reso-
lutely controlling herself. “Only do go on!
Did he murder ’em all P”
“No," said Mrs. Doubleday. “But he
could have'done, if-[it hudn’t been» for the
heroine. She up and takes a gun and shoots
right into the bundle, hlldd-dear heart a'live,
what’s that? Some one knocking, as 11 live!"
She scrambled off. the barrel Nipples;
Jemima backed, pale and trembling'against
the refrigerator, to the manifest'peril of the
kerosene lamp—and'Joisiab,‘ the only son and
heir of the house ofDoubleday, came tum-
bling down stairsas only a thirteen year old
boy can. ' l '
“Hallo!" ba'wled Josiah. “A :bundle for
dad!" ' '
“What i” shrieked Mrs. Doubleday.
“What ?” echoed Jemima, turning asmany
colors as a dying dolphin. . ., ,_
“Upon the hall fiber," said Josiah, rubbing
his hands. “Directed“‘Zénas Doubleday,
Esquire. Express from Buflalo.’ And there
must be something jolly heavy inside of it,
for it was all the expressman and me could
do to get it in.”
Mrs. Doubleday and Jemima looked faintly
at each other. ‘ .
“Come up and look at it,” said Josiah. “I
say—I s’pose it wouldn’t do to open it aforc
dad comes home ? But a fellow might just
rip open one end—it’s sewed up in sacking—
and peep in ?” - .
“Not for worlds i" cried Jemima.
“Your father would never' forgive you i”
said Mrs. Doubleday, pressing her hand on
her side. . .
“Then come up and have a_ look obit,"
urged the unconscious Josiah g and, after ex-
changing a mysterious series of whispers,Mrs.
Doubleday-and Jemima consented to'follow
him up stairs. ' ' _
'Ihere in the hall lay an oblong bundle, os-
tentatiously labeled, and. looking harmless
enough in all conscienbe; ' Jemima ' crept
behind her aunt; Mrs. Doubleday dropped
breathless into her chair.
“Good Lord, have mercy on us,” gasped
she. ‘ '
“Ain’t it a Whopper ?" said Josiah, giving
itakick. ‘ ’ 1. ' ' »
“Josiah, don’t I" shouted Mrs. Doubleday.
“Why not ?" said Josiah. "You women
not as if you expected it was goin’ ,to bite
you. 1, .
Mrs. Doubleday and Jemima looked at one
another again. ‘ '
“Let's go back into the sitting room,”_ said
Mrs. Doubleday, faintly.
“Can’t I just rip open one-end, ?” drged
Josiah.
“No i" said his mother, and Josiah knew
that aftersuch a rebuff it was useless further
to plead his cause. - , "
And when he had gone to bed, Mrs. Doubo
leday looked at Jemima. '
“Jemima,” said she, “Dow’s our time! Get
out your uncle's six-burroled revolver."
“Aunt Doubleb'ay-‘you wouldn' -'-"
“ch I‘would,”'said Mrs. Doubleday. sol.
emnly. “It’s to protect:our livesl”;
And Jemima, trembling~ lull our, reached
: down the six-barreled revolver-that "was al-
ways kept upon the top shelf _ of the sitting
roomclosct. .
1*" Mrs. Doubleday was not. a—vvoniau who did
things by halves. She put' all six ' of the
charges ruthlessly into the bundle, and. then
seizing the kitchen hatchet chopped at it,
screaming at the top of her lungsa‘ll the time.
Jemima stopped her ears ln‘the sitting-room—

a face as pale as ashes. - ‘
“Is mother gone mad ?” cried he. “A-cut-

And to add to the general melee, a prodi-
gious knocking came to the hall door, and
Deacon Doubleday’s well-known voice was
heard calling aloud for admission.
“Hal-lo_!” said the Deacon, staring around
as Josiah, a pale,little vision in night. apparel,
