W ESTON.

The fearful gale, last Tudeayr, together
with the deluge of rain, have left their vesti-
ges here in washed roads, almost impassa-
ble and some places quite dangerous. The
bridge at Platt’s Corners was literally under
water and the inhabitants of'the corner house
—which lies rather low— were compelled to
seek shelter elsewhere, which Mr. and Mrs.
C. B. Sutton generously oil'ered. Burr’s
bridge, near the Westport line, was in a ter-
rible condition, and when Mr. John Lock-
wood and Mr. Waterbury, who were obliged

to go to Bridgeport on that stormy day, rc- ,

turned late at night, they found the passage

across the bridge anything but pleasant, but -

rather a most perilous affair.
We had a little frost, Saturday, and bright

visions of skating dawned upon the minds;

of our young friends; but, alas! like a beau-

tiful dream, these visions vanished when an- _
other rain storm came on Sunday. Of course‘

there was no regular service in the church
although a few ventured out and\hold a sort

of praise meeting at 12 m.

By the way, the beautiful piece of poetry
in your last issue, “The prayer of the Fallen”
is by Rev. Samuel Miller H agcman. He is a
grandson of Roy. S; Miller, D. D., formerly
professor in Princeton theological seminary
and he is also a nephew of Mrs. Lubkert, the
wife of our Congregational minister.

The literary society met at the parsonage
(Rev. Mr. Lubkert) and was very well attend-
ed, between fifty and sixty being present.
Mrs. H. B. Ogden, with her noth taste, read
a piece, and Mr. Lubkert read the famous
“Nocturnal Sketch,” by Thomas Hood—a
plan for writing blank verse in rhyme. Great
interest was given the meeting by the pres-
ence of some strangers, among whom was
Miss Holt, of Mattewan, N. J ., who, by her
exquisite and tasteful singing, charmed all
those present into wonderful stillness. The
next meeting of the Society will be held at
the residence of Mr. Charles Adams, on Good
Hill Avenue.

The death of Mrs. Burr, wife of our
Congregational pastor, though expected for
some time, has filled many a heart with sor-
row, though our loss undoubtedly was her
gain. -

People from far and near are now ransack-
ing our beautiful woods for that much covet-
ed thing yclcpt Christmas greens.

The ladies of the Congregational Sunday
school are busy in getting their Christmas
trimmings ready.

There will be, divine Providence permitting
a Sunday school festival on Christmas Eve.
(Tuesday December 24th) at 5 p. m.

Scholars and teachers met at the parsonage
last week for the purpose of practicing songs
and carols, and a very lively singing time they
made of it. ‘

Messrs. Cole and Comstock have gone on a
flying visit to New York.

The cadets of the military institute are
crazy with their anticipated holiday. We do
not blame them. It is pleasant, this idea of
seeing father, mother and brothers again, af-
ter so many months of‘absence. May they
all have a nice time. Vacation will be from
Saturday, 21st, inst., to Saturday, January
4th. ’ "

No clew has as yet been found to the per-
petrators of that bold robbery at Mr. John
Crossman’s house.

Mr..John Gregory is going to have a boun-
tiful supply of choice Christmas gifts at his
well known store in the shape of fine candies
and confectioneries, stationary and other
useful articles.

The Messrs. Walker are now prepared to
execute at their mill all orders for grinding
buckwheat flour and anything in their line of
business. As they are gentlemen as well as
business men,let us all give them a call.

' TON WES.

 

WEST STRATFORD.

Everything seems to be unusually quiet
in this place, but we are a quiet. law-abid-
ing community and that probably accounts
for it.

We have had our regular weekly storm,
and in this vicinity ,it was very severe.
In some places the streets were hardly
passable, and one could traverse them bet-
ter, if provided with a small boat, and a
pair of ours, than on foot. Cellars were
flooded, sewers were overflowed and in
fact every place where water could make
its power felt, suffered more or less from its
ravages.

It was a grand sight that the writer of
this saw, (during the fury of the storm) at
Sea Side Park, in Bridgeport. As the waves,
rolled in from the Eastward, and broke
against the sea-wall the spray was sent
flying up into the air, to the height of
thirty feet or more, and it seemed (although
the writer has stood by Niagra and listened
to the roar of that great cataract,) that
Niagra could not compare that day with
the waters of Long Island Sound, as they
rolled in against the shore of our own Con-
necticut. .

A number of our citizens are beautifying
their buildings by the addition of a fresh
Wcoat of paint. Mr. Lewis block, on Lake.
start-Embossing, been repainted, as has also
D. C. Wood’s block on the corneriil‘ Lake
and Barnum streets, and both are so im-
proved as to outward appearances, that
one would hardly take them to be the same
buildings they were but a short time ago.
They certainly are not the same in appear-
ance. Mr. Rich is the painter and sucha
neat piece of work speaks well for his skill
as a first class workman.

Our Borough Clerk elect seems to be
quite a mystery to some. Some claim that
he is a democrat, others that he is a repub-
lican, and still others that he is a green-
back. The mattcr can be easily settled,
he is 3 Simon pure democrat, elected to the
office of Borough Clerk by a union otrc-
publican and democrats.

A certain journal published in Bridgeport,
speaks of West Stratford as “an election
ridden realm” and thinks it would be better
for said place if it became a part of Bridge-
port. We are obliged to you, neighbor,
but we are content to let well enough
alone, and further-more our advice to you
is, to practice what you preach before you
set yourself up as a guide for others to fol-
low. ' '

Another journal of the same place speaks
sneetingly of the bill for police services in
W'est Stratford. That bill shows on its
gentlemen, that this Boroughis orderly.
Take your own Bridgeports and com-

pare it with West Stratford it you please,-

and then tell us which is themorc law-abid-
ing of the two.

 

STAMFORD.

A proposed "amended” Borough charter,
is apparently an entire revxsion—atlditioii,
substraction, division, multiplication and
complex fractions. It fills ten columDS, solid
matter, in the paper which Advocates it. _ ‘

The Sunday schools are preparing festm-
ties for Christmas.

The funeral of Mrs. George Plait, whose
peculiar illness was first reported in the
GAZETTE, but who died Tuesday morning
before the paper was issued, took place
Thursday from her late residence in Poplar
Plains, Rev. A. N. Lewis officiated. The
remains were buried in Christ Church ceme—
tery. Deceased had passed the whole of her
life, 54 years, near the place of her birth, her
attachment for it growing stronger as time
advanced. Firmness in her friendship and a
love for all that was good and true, won for
her many friends who will sorrow over her
sudden departure.

Thursday evening last Mrs. Gilbert Taylor
celebrated informally, her 90th birthday at
the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Jere—
miah Brown. The occasion was character-
ized by pleasant reminiscences of a century
into the years of which the memories of but
few new among us extend.

The prompt disappearance of last week’s
snow and continued open and partially mild
weather since lead some serious minded
people to think we shall have a “Green
Christmas. , .

At the funeral of the wife of Z. B. Burr
from her late residence in SCuthp'ort Wed-
nesday, quite a number of Westport friends
attended.-

The play of "Ten Nights in a Barroom”
was given to a good audience Wednesday
evening in Good Templar Hall, Saugatuck,
by a troop of amateurs, who will soon re-

 

peat the performance.

Supt. George Jeliiffc has improved the
trout ponds at Poplar Plains by converting
the three large ponds into a half-dozen smal—
ler $1199, and by regulating the supply of
water. ~ Two hundred thousand salmon eggs
are in process of hatching, and a much larger
number is expected during the winter.
Persons visiting the works will find _it to
their advantage and pleasure to happen
around at the time of feeding-the trout
which occupy exclusively two of the ponds.
Young fish caught in salt water are most
used. When‘thesc are thrown into the water
full grown, active trout weighing two pounds
and over come to the water’s surface and
wage warfare among themselves in their
efforts to gobble the larger quantity. Such
a sight is seldom seen. .

A “silver wedding,” at which Mr. and
Mrs. Wilson Harris appeared as the central
figure, was celebrated at their residence,
Thursday evening. ~

Mr. M. W. Wilson has brought suit against
Mrs. Harriet Trubee, proprietor of the
“Compo” estate, to recover the sum of 331,-
060.00 the amount claimed by him to be due
for legal services rendered.

Rev. Mr. Pogson, and others, who were
to have Spoken on temperance, Tuesday
evening of last week, but were prevented by
conditions of weather, are announced to
appear Friday evening, 20th, at the same
place.

The placing of public lamps at the foot of

Wright street and near the corner of Wright
and King streets, would do a vast amount of
good.
There is a good deal of talk around town
about somebody’s dropping unstamped letters
into the village post office with the words,
“charge to box—~—~—” written in one corner,
but as yet scarcely a word has been uttered
or an opinion expressed as to the strange
disappearance of a letter containing money
and checks representing over $50 value,
recently sent through the Westport office by
a citizen.

Why may not the New York Herald’s
“P. I.” item, to the effect that, “A school
boy, at this season, should not be held re-
sponsible for what he s’led to do, have a local
bearing: " ' "
The desirability of horse cars, and their
superiority over any other means of public
conveyance between the railroad depot and
the village, was seen during the late severe
rain storms. PAUL.

CITY WEST'NORWALK.

Mrs. Samuel Stevens, the aged mother
of C. C. Stevens of South Norwalk, died
on Friday last,after a protracted sickness.

The absence of the older, was marked

day evening next, at the house of Mrs. D.
R. Selleek.

‘ Owing to the storm, preaching services
Were postponed on Sunday.

Our community were shocked to hear by

and friends searched for him in this neigh-
borhood, also on the Railroad and around
South Norwalk harbor.

The Sunday law seems to have been pretty
well enforced, last Sunday. Now that the
fact has been demonstrated that the thing
can be done, let us hope that it will be done
hereafter.

The Town Assessors have completed their
labos and returned the Assessment Books
tothe Town Clerk’s ofilcc where they can
now be inspected. The Board of Relief will
soon commence their labors.

The children’s Fair given last week under
auspices of the Primary Class of the First
Baptist Sunday School proved to be asuc-
cess and netted them quite a nice surn tow-
ard paying for their Sunday School‘room.

First M. E. Church Next Friday evening, by

tcv. W. 11. Boole. Subject, “WhatI saw

South Norwalk people are not afraid of a
little rain. The fair gi on by the ladies of
Trinity Church, last sday, was well at-
tended notwithstanding the storm, and the
pecuniary result was quite satisfactory—the
profits reaching about $170. .

At 1 o‘clock, yesterday, the fire bell rung
out a general alarm, causing arush of firemen

of the town to lay taxes—not to put out a

The publishers of Harper’s Monthly are not
to be caught napping, and evidently intend
to keep the old favorite at the head of the
Magazines of the World. They seek to con-
stantly improve it, and to that end are lavish
in their outlays. The number for January is
a brilliant one. Nearly every article is ex-
pensivcly and beautifully illustrated, and the
amount and variety of contents is astonishing.
The number contains 160 pages, and over 90
engravings. ' “England’s Great Seaport”—
Liverpool, “A Chapter in the History of
Ants,” “Rambles in the South of France,”
“The Meeting of the ‘Royal' on Durdham
Down,” and “Home," by Porto Crayon, are
all lavishly illustrated. Wm. Black's “Mim-
lcod of Dare,” and Tom Hardy’s “Return of
the Native,” are both concluded. “A ‘Re—
porter’s Romance” is illustrated; Edward
Everett Ilale contributes a poem, “The Great
Harvest Year”; and there is a Christmas
Story by Virginia W. Johnson. Other arti-
cles are :——“Cloisonnc Enamel," by Jennie
Young, ill.; “ Rousseau,” with portrait ;
“The Necklace,”a poem; “Ye Hag,” a poem
by Robert Herrick, with ill.; “Maria Del

BOSTON, December 11.——Reports from
Maine and New Hampshire indicate that the
rains of Tuesday have produced the most
destructive freshets that have occurred for
many- years. The rise of the mountain
streams which tributaries to the Connecticut,
Merrimac, Piscataqua, Saco, Androscoggin
and Kennbcc, have frequently resulted in
great loss of property, and reports indicate
that there has been nothing like the present
fall of water since 1869.

New HAVEN, Conn., Dec. 10.—Frederick
Eckert, a baker, was frying doughnuts to-
day when a large pot of lard took fire.
Eckert threw the pot out of the window,
being first, terribly burned. The pot and'the
burning lard fell on Gottli. Beck, who was
in the yard, who was also severely burned.
The cases are both serious.

The January number of Appleton’s Jour-
nal, commences a new series on a new plan.
It is handsomely printed, on laid paper, in
the old form. Illustrations will be excluded
hereafter, it being the purpose of the pro-
prietors to‘ devote the entire space to litera-
ture of a high order of excellence, original
and selected, by writers of acknowledged
standing. The publishers say:

“Fiction will still occupy a place in the
Journal, and descriptive papers will appear;
but large place will be given to articles hear-
ing upon literary and art topics,to discussions
of social and political progress, to papers
addressed distinctly to the intellectual tastes
of the public, or devoted to subjects in which
the public welfare or {public culture is con—
cerned.”

The January number has the following
contents :—The Romance of a Painter, Part
1, from the French of Ferdinand Fabre; The
Eighteenth Century, by T. E. Kebbel ;
Chrysanthcma gathered from the Greek An-

 

 

 

thology, by Wm. M. Hardinue; An Art

Budget; Elephant Catching; The Dietetic
Use of Wines, by G. L. Austin. M. D; Pe-

mother, Horace E. Scudder; Editor’s Table;

“Sport" is decidedly a fast-young man.
Last week he was divorced from his third
wife, and as he came out from the court room
was joined by the fourth aspirant, and the
happy. couple started off to get married.
Three ministers declined to perform the cor—
emony, but the job was finally done by Lock:
wood, the lawyer who had secured the di—
vorce, and who, of course, had no conscien-

tious scruples.

received, and a right royal number it is. The
new year opens well with the magazines, and
they give every indication of, prosperity.
The cost of prducmg such a- magazine as
Scribncr’s must be immense, and it can be
done only by the co-opcration of a large num-
ber of appreciative subscribers,—and it is
yearly shown that the more subscribers they
get the better they make their magazine, and
the better they (make it themore subscrip-
tions they receive. The magazine now con-
tains 144 pages monthly, and the present
number contains nearly 100 costly and bean-
tiful engravings. “Old Maryland Manners”

Club at Wor ” has fifteen cuts; The Menu—
tain Lakes of California has four illustrations
by . Iobn Moran ; “At the Old Bull’s Head”
is descriptive of a famous resort of old New
York, and is spiritly illustrated. ' Theserials
are, Falconberg, by Boyesen,and “Hawarth’s”
by Mrs.;Burnett, author of ‘fThat Lass o’
Lowrie’s,3?l which novelghas established . her.
reputation as'one of the best novelists of the“
age. -“Haworth’s”_is her longest work and
willvrun. through the entire year. Bayard
Taylor contributes “Epicediu'm,” .a three
page. poem in honor of the late Wm. Cullen"
Bryant. ‘ Biom‘ the Bold,” a Christmas bal-
lad, has [one engraving. by Mary Hallcck

THE NEW Ion]: sIJN FOR 1819. -

TEE SUN will be printed every day during the
year to come. Its purpose and method will be the
name as in the past: To present all the news in a
readable shape, and to tell the truth though the
heavens fall. .

THE SUN has been, is, and will continue to be
independent of everybody and everything save
the Truth and its own convictions of duty. ' Th at
is the only policy which an honest newspaper
need have. That is the policy which has won for
this newspaper the confidence and friendship of a
wider constituency than was ever enjoyed by any
other American journal. ~

THE Sun is the newspaper of the people. It in
not for-the rich man against the poor man, or for
the. poor man against the rich man. but it seeks to
do equal justice to allintercsto in the community.
It is not the organ of any person. class, sect. or
party. There need be no mystery about its loves
and hates. It is for the honest man against the
rogues every time. It is thohoireat Democrat as
against the dishonest Republican, auditor the hon-
est Republican as against the dishonest Demo-
crat. It does not take its one from the utterances
of any politician or politichl organization. It
gives its support unreservedly when men or mean-
ures are in agreement with Constitution and with
the principles upon which this republic was foun-
ded for the people. Whenever the Constitution
and constitutional principles are violated+as in
1876, bywhlch a man not elected was placed in the
President’s office, where he still remains-nit
speaks out for the right. That is Tm: sun’s idea
of independence. In this respect there will be no
change in its programme for 1819.

THE sex has fairly earned the hearty hatred ‘of
rascals, frauds and humbuga of'all sorts and vines
It no a to deserve that hatred not lean in the our
1879 t an ."1 1878, 1877;!» any your gone by. mt,
SUN is printed for the men and women 'of to-day
whose concern lB chiefly with the affairs of to-day.
II: has both the disposition and ability to afloxd its
readers the promptest,‘ fullest and most accurate
intelligence of whatever in the wide world is
worth attention. To this end the resources be-
longing to well-establ' bed prosperity will be liber-
all employed. .3, ; , .1 . .' ». ’ ' ' '

\vel -known methods, the principles that should.

tant part of THE Sun’s work for 1879.
