The Fourth passed off quieter than usual
here. Many of our young people “took in
the excursion to Rockaway. We are happy
to have no accidents to report.

Which was a silver plate with lidisflname and
‘ 0' iereon.

DARIEN.
.Our quiet and shady town has been unusu-
ally lively the past week. par first social
event was the 2lst birthday party given by
Ex-Senator Bruggcrhof to.his only son Ed-
ward, and a most delightful gathering it was
to all who participated. . A large party was
in attendance composed of friends from New
York, Stamford, Darieiz, Norwalk, Bridge-
port, &c. There was but one single doubt
about the happy event, and that was who
were the happiest, the fortunate guests or the
fond parents in their incessant attentions
and efforts to add to the enjoyment of their
many guests. Where all was unbroken de-
light it was difilcult to determine this prob-
lem. The parents certainly have abundant
reason to be proud of their son just-entered
upon the stage of manhood, for he is in all
respects just what loving parents would de-
sire their child to be. His fine natural abili-
ties have had the sadvautages of thorough
culture and all improved by foreign travel,
and no parents or boy can more truly say—
“Our lines have fallen to us in pleasant
places." With music and feasting and social
chit-chat the large company continued to a late
hour and then departed with abundant bless-
ings upon the house of Bruggerhof.
The next grand event was the gathering of
our Sabbath School children at Contentment
Island, on the glorious Fourth, where they
were delightfully entertained by Col. eroaivr
Conan. The crowds of bright-faced little
ones were appropriately addressed by Col.
Colyer and Hon. Lynde Harrison, of New
Haven, who spoke to his young auditors on
“Patriotism.” The beautiful grounds were
nicely cleared for the occasion, and in addi-
tion to the addresses there was exquisite mu-
sic, by Germans from Spritzenwhaker, (don’t
dislocate your jaw pronouncing this) which
with the ice cream and lemonade filled the
youngsters with patriotism and joy. The
children from Fitch’s Home were on hand as
well beloved and capable of enjoyment as the
most favored urchins in the land. The spread
of hunting and gay decorations, with the
holiday attire and gay colors of the child-
ren's dresses, made the gathering most
charming to look upon. All voted the
gathering to have been most happy and fully
worthy the generous heart and noble nature
of Col. Colyer and his estimable lady.
The Colonel has rented the Centennial
Building to a wealthy Spanish family, the
head of which is Senora D Fernandez Bram-
osia, whose husband died only one month
since, so they are in deep mourning and wish
to live quietly and undisturbed. The grounds
will not be open to the public until autumn. -
He has also rented his own delightful cottage
to Frederick Kopper, Esq, of New York,
and will, with Mrs. Colyer, pass the summer
in traveling. 2
Fitch’s Home.
The most attractive evening we have passed
for,,some months. was at the closing exercises
of the Fitch’s Home School. .
The pupils, about one hundred in number,
were present throughout the exercises. _The
music was all of a high order. The Misses
Thonmreler, of Milwaukee, Wis., made
_ themselves noticeable by their correctness of
execution upon the piano,as did some others.
The little misses and lads sang Birdie’s
Ball beautifully and received due applause.
Miss Hoyt and Master Gleason had essays,
one of beautiful thought concerning Flowers,
the other a strong article on Newspapers.
Miss J. Holly with great credit read a poem;
Master Gleason, as Cicero, spoke to Amer-
ican people as to Romans in the Latin tongue,
while the Master Dauchey recounted the
Trojan wrongs in the same tongue. Master
Wattenbery recited a German poem, and
Miss Mather recited a French extract, young
Dauchey again spoke of Tcli’s wrongs in an
American vernacular. Miss Esther Butler
made it quite eonelusivedhat ”she hated
boys," while the first class in concert, feeling
the spirit of the Fourth upon them, made
our hearts to glow with the Independence
hymn. .
After the exercises, all were treated to ice
cream. Miss Walker is obliged to return to
Wisconsin, and Miss Hattie E: Guy of Mas-
sachusetts, will be the next Vice Principal.
MIss Davis, with some of her pupils, are
intending to visit the White Mountains apd
uebec, in order to benefit the health of_ prin-
cipal; unless this is effected she will be
obliged to sever her connection With the
school and Connecticut. A. J. C

Continued warm weather. 2
The fourth passed quietly with the excep-
tion of patriotic demonstrations on the part
of young America. In the night the dark-
ness was made hideous by the firing of
cannon and the discordant cries of youth
ambitions of :making a noise in the werld.‘
Between one and two in the afternoon, the
glorious artillery of the skies reverberated
from all quarters of the heavens, and a
copious fall of rain put a new face upon
nature.
The Mutual Cornet Band went to New
Canaan to add to the pleasure of a picnic in
that place.
Another of our aged citizens died last
week. Abram Holmes who was 87 years
old. He died suddenlyTuesday morning and.
was buried Friday.

Fiftl’ years Of married life is the rare ex-
eepti’on. Nathan Lounsbury and wife to;-
day, witness the fiftieth anniversary of their
marriage. Their children and a few near
friends will meet at the old homestead in
honor of the event, and a good time is ex,
pected.
Mr. Bailey continues to improve his pro-
perty on East Ridge. He is opening up
new streets and widening old ones, making
very eligible building lots accessible. Grove
and Summit are the names given to two
streets.
A small party of young people spent the
fourth at Newtown, L. 1., and report a very
pleasant time.
It is expected that the Dramatic Club
will give another entertainment at the Hall,
Friday evening, July 19. A good time is
promised.

Sunday evening Mr. Platt preached a
sermon on the country; its. dangers and its
hopes.- The dangers that threaten the.coun-
try are Intcmperance, Roman Catholicism,
Communism and Speculation. The hope of
the country lies in Religion. The sermon
was a grand cilort,—-calculated to command
the admiration if not the assent of all. '

2WEST NORWALK CITY.
Having no ordinances forbidding, or fault-
finding editors to complain, the commemora-
ting the nations independence commenced
earlv last week, and continued until Friday
evening. The hotels were well . patronized,
l4 (lifiing at Johnston’s on the .4th. On
the evening previous, and the evening of the
4th commendable displays of fire works were
bad at the Messrs. Johnsons, whose sons and
friends had come to their old homes for a
ort visit. ‘
ShThe “Centennial” at the old Mather Home-
stead, was, however, the event of the day.
Passing up the direct New Canaan road to
the late residence of Henry Clark, deceased,
we rise a high bill, passing the elegant and
spacious mansion of Edgar Smith, Esq,
located nearly on the summit, and also of
Mrs. D. B. Mather, we come in sight of the
now historic spot, “the Mather Home.” At
first view, it was evident that busy hands
had been at work; the yard, fence, and house
being gaily and profusely decorated w1th
flags and hunting, and a long table had been
erected under the shade, on the east Side of
the yard. On a nearer approach, merry
voices were heard, and were added to by
new arrivals. Distant thunder and frequent
drops of rain, now admonished those who
were strolling through the yard, or resting
under the shade, that a shower was coming,
from which a shelter should be sought.
Your reporter entered the Home by invita-
tion of Aunt Phebe, and after partaking” of
a glass of ice water, was seated to awa1t_ the
commencement of. the regular exercises.
The shower increased; time was rapidly
passing, and it was thought that further dos
lay awaiting the arrival of other friends was
not advisable. The assemble e was called
to order by James H. White,’ sq., of New
York, when Rev. Mr. Bradford, pastor of
the Congregational church in Darien, led in
a fervent prayer, in which he alluded to the
goo’dness‘of God in giving the world such a
family and such a ome,,—a home which
had not only been the children’s rendezvous,
but had served as a place of safety and re-
sort by many during trouble and War. The
Mather Glee Club, led by D_. B, Bell, Esq,
then sang in a very impresswe manner “Oni-
Country ’Tis of Thee.” James H. White
then gave quite a lengthy historical sketch
of the Mather Family from Cotton Mather,
down, and called attention to the “old low
pine desk” upon which Rev. Dr, 'Mather
wrote his sermons and probably, his book
entitled “View of Divinity” printed in Stani-
ford, A. D., 1813. Many facts and incidents
before unknown to most of the relatives,
were narrated by Mr. White, the most amus-
ing among them, the fact that Deacon
Mather wlsllins to kindle a fire in the
spacious fire place, the first day that the
house was occupied, said he would'draw the
fire from the skies. Taking his pipe and
spectacles, he went out, and through the
lcnzes of his glass, he lit his pipe by the heat
of the sun, and with a match lighted the first
fire in the house, Mr. D, E. Bell was pglled
upon to make a few remarks, but ec mod,
for the reasons he had no speech prepared,
and since his marriage he had let his wife do
most of the talking. Singing followed, and
an o portnnity was given for any others to
area ‘. no oae'rca ending. it was suggested
that on account 0‘ the rain, no other friends
' would be present, therefore a game of “Knife
and Fork” in the old kitchen, was proposed.
Aunt Betsey and Phebe, Miss A. E. Lock-
wood, Mrs. D. B. Mather and daughter,
aided by others had prepared the tables, to
which some 25 were‘sodn seated. A blessing
was asked by Rev. Mr. Bradford, and the
game commenced, and continued until the
60 or more who were present were abund-
antly fed.
The only surviving daughters of Deacon
Mather, now occupy the old home. His
three sons are deceased. The Grandchildren,
to the 8d generation, are scattered, but were
not forgotten. Rev. C. G. Selleck resxdes in
Florida, Rev. Chas. Richard and W. II.
Mather in Michigan. Joseph W. Mather in
San Francisco, where he is a successful mer-
chant. From him a letter to Aunt Racy,
was received full of regrets that he could not
be at the Centennial, but wishing that his
dear aunt “might cdntinue the same 72.7an
and contented life for many years.” The
severity of the storm deterred many of the
nearest relatives from attending. Those
present from out of town, wereMrs. Morgan,
of North Wilton, Mrs. A. H. Darling, from
Mass, James H. White, Esq, wife, daugh-
ter and sister-in-lawafrom blew Yrfik. D. BB.
Bell Es . wife all son rem 2 e, .e-
grets wage’cxpressad at tlfe absence bf Aunt
Emily Waterbury. Over the porch, under a
heavy festoon of red, white and blue bupt-
ing, was a neat banner, bearing the inscrip-
tion “Our Grandfather’s home 1778—1878."
The occasion was of great interest never to
be forgotten, All joined heartily in singing
“Should old ac2 unintancc be_ orgot“ “an
wishing- for continued blessmgs on the
“Mather Centennial."
Rev. Mr. Bradford preached a ' owcrful
sermon on Temperance, Sunday a 'teriioon,
in the Chapel.

According to the New York Daily Times,
if the present unprecedented. hot weather
continues, the earth, in all probability, will
be destroyed by fire, Monday,July 15th,187S.
This is very exact calculation on the part
of the Times man, but when the thermome-
tor ranges from 85 to 95 degrees in the shade
right along, suffering humanity. accepts any.
thing as truth. It therefore behooves those
having hay or grain in the fields which they
would like to preserve for next winter’s use,
to cart the same right in.
The action of certain village young men at

Sometime since the contracts for complet-
ing what is known as the Gorhain road were
awarded to Messrs. Andrews Godfrey and
Leroy Meeker; both competent men. Each
having finished his work. the same was sub-
mitted to the selectmen for their approval.
Godfrey’s end of the roan was accepted and
the money therefor paid. Meeker?! was re-
jected, and as everybody who has passed
over it says Meeker's war is the best, Le-
Roy naturally asks why this is thus. Getting
no satisfactory replies, he concludes that fa-
voritism growing out of prejudice on the part
of the selectmen has impelled them to decide
in a manner on the face of it unjust, and he.
would be glad to have their action reviewed.
Those citizens who, with the approach of
the nation's birth-day, howl against noisy
demonstrations and in favor of peace and
quietness, had all they wanted of‘ those con.
ditions last-Thursday, scarcely a-leaf, an ant.
mai or a boy stirring to rufile {he sea of their
patriotic tranquility. .A bel or two was
faintly rung early in the morning, some gates
were unhinged, crackers and pistols let off,
a very few fireworks appearcdiu the evening,
and Uncle “Lew" Brad ey had apile of wood
thrown down a bank wall. All this was too
suggestive of repose, and the bowlers
owled because of unspeakable stillness.
This calls to mind the Fourth of July, 18245.
On that occasion there was howling, and
some of the bowlers are alive and howled last
Thursday}, because a few earnest persons, led
by “Hez‘. Nichols, William H. Richards,
George Hurlbutt and other men of sense, in-
sisted on celebrating the day. A grand pro
cession was formed and when citizens with-
out regard to political or Chlll‘cll creeds fell
in, the bowlers stuck up their noses. A band
played national hymns,and they closed their
cars; beautifUI prayers were uttered in a
church, the Dem ration was read, and still
their hearts remained as adamant. “Tom”
Ficlds’ eloquent oration, which, as a literary
effort has not since been equaled and never
Surpassed,warmed them up a_little,but when,‘
at its conclusion, the band struck up “Hail
Columbia," they settled back into the wonted
atmosphere of bitterness, potent enough in
quality to soar all the morninglsmilk strained

a ruling passionito-howl, but a discovery that
sugar had been - too . sparingly sprinkled on
the dessert, called it forth again. A national
anthem by four voices from the hotel balcony,
and fireworks, all harmoniously conducted,
called forth more bowls, and howling opened
and closed that great anniversary. The fact
that rain fell in torrents all day was advanced
as a plausible excuse for the conduct of the
bowlers, but when a well-known citizen. -
(bowler) supposed to be full of patriotic fire
mowed all day in sight of the exercises des-
pite the rain,not deigning to raise his head as
drums beat, cannon roared and the procession
moved, the existence of a chronic stubbor-
ness, too deep-seated to be squelched by any-
thing short of the bursting of a hundred
pound bomb shell was evident. It was snarl
and bowl then because men glorified,—it is
how], howl and snarl now because they don’t.
A pamphlet descriptive of the bowlers and
their ways of sowing the seeds of Opposition
then had the effect of maintaining silenccl
where much howling was expected. A sim-
ilar pamphlet now, did the circumstance waro.
rant, might be productive of good. .
Dr. R. C. M. Page, now in Europe, writes

ison for beauty to the grounds of Mr. Morris

On the night of July 4th a revolver which
Mr. Cornelius Jelliffe had purchased to help

near.
