This city is increasing in proportions and
importance immensely. Its extent is much
larger than her sister City, South Norwalk.

' The Union chapel was open on Sunday
week, for three services. Sabbath School at
3 P. M., Rev. J. M. Taylor front the Babtist
Tabernacle, S‘outh Norw alk, preached at 4
P. hi. and in the evening the Sabbath School
Monthly Concert was held. All these exer-
cises were wellnttendcd. There seems to be
only a few things lacking. When we have
our Opera House or Music Hall, or enlarge
Good Templar‘s Hall, and have a few per—
formances by Negro minstrels, or a dime con-
cert or two, we shall be quite cityfied, and
need perhaps only one thing more, that is a
daily local paper. Our sister city South Nor.
walk is well represented here at night, when.
the artizans return home from their daily
duties in the Manufactories of the city, and
at times some of the lads and leases visit here
and often we find that the ladies and gents
who are fond of horseback riding, jaunt leis-
urly ailing through that lovely and romantic
route “ Lovelane" and ere they are aware of
the fact, find themselve in the center of this
city ; usually, this section is graced with a
large number of City folks who come hither
to spend the summer, but the prospect in this
respect is now poor.
Mr. Stanly Silliman held an auction sale at
Temple Hall, Saturday Evening. The chapel
was opened last Sunday for the Sabbath
School and the Rev. M. Dusenberry of the
Methodist Church in Daricn, preached at 4
o’clock. It is unfortunate that the young
ladies alone have to conduct and support the
singing. but they do it well, and put to shame
the young men. -It is expected that Dr.
Spencer, from South Norwalk, will preach in
the Chapel next Sunday at 4 o'clock.
WINNIPAUK.
Old Oaken Bucket Lodge of Good Tem-
plcrs have taken a new departure, have
ing given up their rooms over Randall’s store,
and new occupy rooms in the Bishop place
on the Silver Mine road.

talking up a Festival to be held early next
month.
Mr. William London- has recently im.
proved his place by building a bank wall
on the road in front of his lot.
A Hutchinson has the Perkin’s fever.
The worst sympton of his fever is the build.
ing of additions. This he has recently done
to his pleasant little home.
A new industry here is the manufacture
of Fanchcr‘s Patent Adjustiblc Weeder, by
T. R. & E. S. Fancher; a neat and handy
garden tbol.
Parties here who have complied with the
provisions of the new dog law, feel aggriev-
ed at the neglect of the Town to enforce it.
It looks like injustice to those who respect
the law.
The Sabbath School Concert was held on
Sunday evening and it was fully as 00d as
those that have preceeded it. The 34 psalm
was read, responsive, and Recitations, class
exercises, interspersed with singing, filled
out the programme. The exercises of Miss
Sarah F. Aiken’s classlwere especially enter-
' taining, and the recitations of Willie Stirling,
“The Tempes ”; Lizzie Wood, “The Cradle
song of " the poor”;. and Mary London,
“Right or wrong i” were equally noticeable
for their excellence. The Superintendent,
Mr. L. Hubbell, seems determined to make
these concerts interesting, and, we hope that'
Scholars, Teachers, and the public will do
all they can to assist .
The amateur gardeners are busy just now
nursing sick looking Tomato plants.
The Hen Fever is on the iiIcrease—neither

WILTON,
Some damage has been done by the re-
cent frosts, grape-vines and strawberry-plants
seeming to be the worst sufferers.
Our town is now being represented at
Bridgeport in the jury box.
Quite a number from this vicinity have

It may not be generally. known that Wil-
ton is ono of the towns in this section that
sent last summer, and is sending this sum-
mer, weekly contributions 'of flowers to the
N. Y. Flower and Fruit Mission, for distri-
bution among the sick and poor of the hospi-
tale and tenement houses. Flowers are sent
every Thursday inOrning, and are received
every Wednesday evening at the house of
Mr. Edward Olmstead to be arranged and
packed for forwarding. NOT-WIL.
Mrs. Liza Bloomer, of Burlington, Iowa,
is visiting her sister, Mrs. Henry G. Middle-
brooks, of this place. Mrs. B. was formerly
a resident of New Canaan and she is well
remembered there as Miss Eliza Palmer.
She was married in New Canaan in 1851 and
removed to New York, and in 1856 she
moved with her family to Burlington, Iowa,
where she has made it her home ever since.
She made a visit to New York and Conn,
17 years ago this Summer, since which time
she has not seen her sister, Mrs. Middle.

cannons STATION.
A pleasant musical and literary entertain.
ment was given at “Reed's Hall," on the'cve-
ning of the 15th, inst. The good audience
was thoroughly appreciated. Recitations by
Miss Garvin, the elecutionist, were excellent.
“The Colliers Child" was very impressive,
and “How he Saved St. Michals" was truly
eloquent. She disclosed a kindly nature and
a brilliant mind, The Professional Singers
gave several admirable selections. "The Old
Fashioned Bible,” “The Lover and the Bir ,”
and “Bonnie Sweet Bessie," were heartily ap-
plauded. The Amateurs, in their vocal and
instrumental contributions to the pleasures of
the evening. received many expressions of
gratification from the audience.

WESTPOR'I‘.
Sunday evening at Memorial church, the
rector, Rev. A. N. Lewis told a large congre-
gation “What our Boys are Reading.” The
discourse was characterized by points “‘0"
taken and words fitly spoken, the whole iridi-
eating much thought. Now if the Rev. gen.
tlemau will tell “What the Girls are Read-
ing,” he may throw light on a mystery which
a good many fellows have long been striving
in vain to solve.
Good time these pleasant Sunday after-
noons after dinner to stroll through Willow
Brook Cemetery and see how men,assisted by
nature, can make a barren, unsightly tract of
land look beautiful.
Governor Hubbard, and Mr. J. E. Whee-
ler, of Saugatuck, were riding up the New
Haven read recently, when something was
said about artificial fish propagation. Inci-
dental to the subject the Governor alluded to
the success of the State fish commissioners
with salmon—that the Connecticut river was
thisstason making a good return in salmon
for the State's money expended, and that
several large specimens of that fine fish had
been plllCl d upon the tables of those who
knew how to enjoy good fish dinners. Mr.
W. said he didn‘t know how that might- be,
but felt certain he Connecticut River salmon
had yet put in an appearance at Westport. A
few days after N r. Wheeler was agreeably
surprised-to receive by express a fish weigh-
ing eleven pounds, grown, evidently. from
some of the fry set at liberty a few years
since by Supt. George Jellilfe, of the Poplar
Pl tins Trout Association, for the State. M".
E. M. Lees, who, while in the legislature did
as much as any other man to inaugurate the
work of rte—stocking our rivers, declares it to
be his opinion that the day is not for distant
when salmon will be as phntiful in our riv-
ers as frost fish. Mr. H. R. Treadwell, who,
while in Europe last year, was an observer
there of the work among fish, says that, in
England, so well have artificial processes suc-
ceeded that some of the little rivers of the in-
terior are rented for $20,000 a year, the stip-
ulation being that the contracting partigs shall
enjoy the entire yield of salmon. When the
fact that double the amount of money paid
has been received in one year by these parties
there need be no fear of loss by Americans
when they essay to do a similar thing.
Heavy frost last week Monday morning
damaged vegetation to an almost inealeulable
extent. Heretofore the great enemy to pota-
toes was the bug, but it must now be conced-
ed that Jack Frost is a greater. Fruit trees
were injured and many grape vines killed
outright. Some potato fields have been re-
planted. The' advantage which an early
spring promised is almost wholly lost. As
an instance showing the extent of the injury
cite $2,000 as their probable loss.
Friday afternoon a meeting of the Congre-
gational Church Society was held, when the
subject of Rev. Dr. Sanderson’s sermon of
Sunday morning, May 12th, and the style of
ts delivery was discussed. It was voted to
sever the connection between the society and
its pastor. The doctor, who was present, in.-
formed his people that he should hold them
responsible for the amount of his salary in
full to February,1879,—the period, as claim-
ed by him that his contract with the
church covers. Sunday morning at the usu-
al hour the doctor presented himself at the
church for the purpose of holding service but
found the doors firmly barred against him.
The circumstances attending the affair are re-
gretted especially by those who love peace
and their neighbors as themselves, for it is
conceded, even by some of those at this mo-
ment full of bitterness the superior of the
doctor, as a scholar, writer, and accomplished
preacher never before occupied the'Congre-
gational pulpit. Relative to the prospect of
good sermons during the coming summer,one
gentleman remarked yesterday that he was
sorry the thing stood as it did for the reason
that the people's sensibilities were likely to
be practiced on indefinitely by theological
students preaching as candidates for vacant
position.
Miss Althea Wood, sister of Hon. Bradford
R. Wood, of Albany, New York, entered
upon her 82d year, Tuesday of last week.
The event was made the occasion of an in-
formal social gathering at the residence of

changed. ,
Mr. R. D. Cable boasts the possession of an

lumber consigned to that veteran dealer have
a meaning pleasant to contemplate.

The fact that Kelly’s Mills, soon to be sold
at auction, is supplied from the flow of three

There was a very pleasant family gather-
inglast Saturday afternoon at the residence

BRIDGEPORT.
William Waterbury, a young man who has
been employed by Bishop & Son, hardware
dealers of Stamford, stole $70 from their safe
a few days ago. He had a hearing and was
bound over to the superior court in $1,000.
Friday afternoon an officer started to take
him to jail in Bridgeport, on the Shore Line
train. He was handcuffed and put in the
smoking car. When within about four miles
of Bridgeport, the cars going thirty miles an
hour, he sprang up, ran to the front platform
of the car and jumped off. He struck a
bank and was thrown back to the track. The
cars cut off one of his feet at the ankle,
broke one of his arms, and smashed in the
front of his skull so that the brains oozed
out. Nevertheless he had strength enough
to get up, walk‘some thirty feet, go up the
bank and sit down under a tree, where he
was found when the train hacked to the spot.
He was taken, conscious to Bridgeport, and
cared for there, but it is hardly possible for
him to recover.
The steamer Bridgeport, having been sup-
plied wrth new boilers and otherwise impror.
ed, has been put on the New York route.
The steamer Laura is to be overhauled and
refitted for the excursion season. To make a

water.
About half of the steeple of the old St.
John’s Church has been removed.
Between six and seven hundred of the
cartridge shop employes have been dismissed.
This reduction in number of hands is main-
ly due to a falling off in the supply called for
by the Turkish government, only about 100,
000 cartridges per day being now turned out
under that order, against half a million per
day a short time ago. '

Pettengil‘i’s Newspaper Directory
' far 1878.
The number of newspapers and other pe-
riodicals in the United States, recorded in
ParriNGILL’s NEWSPAPER Dinncronr AND
ADVERTISERS, HAND-BOOK Fon,1878, is 8,133,
of which there are 752 daily, 61 tri-weekly,
114 semi-weekly, 6,185 weekly, 111 semi-
montlily, 881 monthly, 18 bi-monthly, 61
quarterly.
The arrangement of the Directory for ready
reference, and for the special and general
business purposes of advertisers, is excellent.
First, we have the general newspaper list,
furnished in geographical sections, from
which we find that in the ' '
New England Section there are 725 news-
papers, of which 75 are daily, 1 triaveekly,
18 semi-weekly, 27 weekly, 7 semi-monthly,
82 monthly, 2 bi-monthly, and 18 quarterly.
The Directory also contains a list of all the
papers, by Counties; a list of all the Daily
papers; a list of the Weekly and Monthly
papers having circulations of over 5,000
copies; a list of Religious weekly papers; a
list of Agridultural and Horticultural publi-
cations, and comprehensive lists of leading
European and Australasian newspapers.
The newest feature in the present Directo-
ry is the department devoted to descriptive
sketches of some of the prominent journals
of the country, and their ofilces.
The book is handsomely embellished with
faithful portraits of S. M. Pettengill, the
publisher; Thurlow Weed, Geo. W. Childs,
Hon. Bayard Taylor, Hon. Henry “latter-
son, ret Harte, the late James Gordon Ben-
nett, the late Samuel Bowles, and the late
Chas. 0. Rogers.
Any reader who would know the extent and
rapidity of the growth and development of
the newspaper enterprises of America, or, in-
deed of the world, will consult' Pettingill’s
Newspaper Directory.
The advice and knowledge imparted to ad-
vertisers in the opening pages of the Direc-
tory, reflect credit upon the auspices under
which it is sent forth. There is frankness and
earnestness in these admonitions, which will
not be lost upon those who are wise enough
to avail themselves of theifi.

Tax Payers on List of 1876.
It has now been over seven months since
the Tax Book was put into my hands for col-
lectiou of State and Town Tax for List of
1876. Now, gentlemen, you must pay, or
suffer the consequences. Not wishing to dis-
tress any tax payer, I should advise 'you, if
you have not the money to pay with, borrow
it, and save expense, for surely it must come
and that quickly. Six per cent. will be ad-
ded to all taxes remaining unpaid on the
morning of the 6th of April, 1878. Be sure
and heed the above advice of the Collector.
