The Board of Education have introduced
Robinson’s arithmetic and Mitchell's geogra~
pliy into our public schools. This measure
does not meet with unanimous approval,
many regarding the expense incurred by the
change as burdensome. It should be taken
into consideration however that many im-
provements have been made in text books,
which greatly facilitate the progress of the
pupil. The arithmetic of the present day
pays more attention to business ccmputation
and omits many things which have become
obsolete. In geography the increased knowl-
edge which we generally gain from enterpris-
ing discoverers and the frequent changes in
national boundaries demand books which ac-
curately delineates the result of discovery or
conquest.

RIDGEFIELD,
The God fliclus had it all his own way
last Wednesday. The wind blew almost a
hurricane, and made things movable fly.
Several of the new blinds on the Town
House were badly shattered, and a portion of
the fence on the north was blown down and
carried b ~.lily several rods. A barn built by
E. Burt, and owned by Theodore Jennings,
was blo .:i down; a portion of the large
willow in front of Nash & Mead's store was
likewise broken down. The turnstile on
I High Ridge was overturned. This town
has seldom seen so severe a wind.
The Amateur Entertainment was given in
the evening. ‘ “Dead Shot.” went off with
telling effect, although few were hit, as the
audience was small, owing to the inclement
weather. It is thought best to repeat with
some other play two weeks from last night,
Nov. 11th. The leading characters were
well taken, and deserved to be‘ seen bya
much larger audience.

“In the town of Salisbury, Barnum's home,
where also resides Hon. Frederick Miles,
the Republican candidate for Congress in the
Fourth District, .the -Roman Catholic priest
has "given away" a point,which was un-
doubtedly intrusted to him fora more dis:
crete use thanlic made of it. Barnum, ’it
appeaIS, had presented him with $250 for the
“88 0f the Dumb, and, on Sunday last after
thc.regular services, the priest spoke to the
congregation openly about the gift. He said
Mr. Barnum had, the week previous, handed
him $250, which made $750 in all that he
had donated, 8500 having been given for a
specific urpose before. He urged all to
vote the emocratic ticket, and not to sell
their votes under any circumstances; and in
order to bc fortified agmnstuny bargaining
and selling he suggested «that the voters in
the congregation, so far as posSIble, would
do well to proceed to the polls In a body.

The 10th, being a democratic district, it
is natural to infer that our fellow townsman,

The legal voters of Westport, in appointing
Mr. John Gorham superintendent of bridges,
did not clothe him with the ermine of abso-
lute authority to make or unmake draw-lei:-
ders. That is the selectmeu’s business. For
the past six years the board have recognized
andpaid Mr. Miller for opening and shutting
the village draw, and as be has always given
satisfaction, the Democrats here naturally,
feel outraged as they contemplate Mr. Gor-
bam’s high-handed act in discharging Mr.
Miller and employing Mr. Harris. The sal-
ary attached to the post is $30 with perqui-
sites. This, Mr. M. says he careslittle about.
If he is to be discharged he says he wants it
done by the same power that employed him.
No other course of proceedure will satisfy
him. The Democrats are unanim‘ously in fa'.
vor of retaining Mr. Miller. While no fault
can be found with Mr. Harris,thsy say if thty
are to have’a Republican, they want a black
Republican in the strict sense of that term.
This, inasmuch as? “Tom” completely fills the
bill, shows that reason in the hearts of local
Democrats has not desorted her throne.

J ohn's Lodge :—
Ephraim French, father of Selectman Geo.
French, died at his home in Flint, Mich..
Oct. 16th, at the age of 62 years, afier a lin-
gering illness. Mr. French was for a number
of years a resident in this town, being prom-
iuént as a woolen manufacturer, and his
friends here learn of his death with sincere
regret and sorrow, for he was universally
liked on account of his genial nature and
kind,.warm-h‘earted disposition. He was one
of the truest friends, always ready to do a
service of kindness or benevolence, and for
this trait of.his sterling character he is re.
Qmembered with gratitude by many. His
body was buried in Lee, Saturday, the func~
ral being largely attended by friends from
this town and Lee. The esteem in which he
was held in his western home was manifested
by his brother Freemasous.- including the
Night Templars. who escorted his remains to
the depot in Flint and there read an appro—
priate portion of the beautiful burial service
of that order.

Tilden was in a bad box. He' had given
out that his income was $18,000. The books
in question are said to show that his income
was $250,000. It is obvious thathe was in a
desperate predicament, and that he had an
immense interest in getting the books out of
the way. The emergency offered a fine op;
portuuity for the practice of his “still hunt”
method of operation, and it is hard to believe
that he resisted the temptation to 'eirtricate
himself in that way. The result, however,
if'he is really at the bottom ofIthe burglary

day opmed bright and smilingly. and the
good weather cheered the hearts of the tim-
'mcn and induced a large turn out. Our citi-

the parade, and many residences on the line
of march were gully decorated, and thus
were thrown to the warm room everywhere.
The town was in fora gala day, and crowds
of people throngcd the streets to view the
procession and enjoy the music. A special
train arrived from Danbury before one o'clock,
with the entire department of that place,
and other visiting coiupinies arrived soon
after and were duly received. At 2 o‘clock
the companies marched to Molt P..rk. The
Borough Department first formed on Mott

The line of march was the same as pu'i
lishcd in our last. The streets were found to
be in excellent condition, and the marching
was quite easy, the temperature being about
right.
At the close of the parade the visiting com-
panies were promptly escorted to the various
places where they were to be entertained.
The Fire Police and their guests occupied the
Opera House by-the generosity of Mr. Lynes;
Hope Hose entertained their guests in Look-
wood’s Hall; and Pioneer H. 6; L. Co. and
guests occupied the vacant store in. GAZETTE
Building. Our citizens responded to the call
for victuals in a generous manner, and the
tables of these companies werc,bountifully
provided with chickens, meats, sandwiches,
pies, cakes, puddings, etc. Certainly better
collations wercanever served at similar par-
ades. Phoenix Engine Company contracted
with Doc. Wilson to provide dinners for the
company and all their guests, and they were
equally well served. '
Warden Morison evinced much interest in
the parade, and generously contributed mate-
rial aid to each company. Previous to the
parade be entertained in a sumptous manner
at the Athenaeum, many visitors from other
towns, Borough and Town officials, Bank of-
ficials, City officials. officers of the Fire De-
partment, &c., &c. 'Frcd. Mead had charge
of the cuisine and the entertainment prepared
was elaborate and abundant. After the
parade still other people were served from
his table.
