CITY WEST NORWALK.
' Rev. Mr. Williams, of your Borough,
- gave a more than usually plain, practical
discourse Sunday, 19th instant, in the
Union Chapel. He exhorted the young
men especially to estimate character by acts,
and not by dollars.
The. Union Home Sociable held their
session on Thursday evening,which was we]
attended. The diversions were greatly var-
ied, and to the intricate games, were added
the new and exciting ones of checkers and
[0x and geese. : . _ -
Sleighing continues good and is. being
enjoyed, large parties going from this City,
and others passing through. The magnifi-
cant turn out of err-Mayer Ely graced our
thoroughfares one day last week.
A birthday and surprise party wasgiven
to Miss Carrie Selleck. on-Friday evening
last. Precisely at 7:} o‘clock Miss Tompkins
of our city, and Miss Gray of New Canaan,
called to spend the evening, as the _ clock-
struck 8, the dulcet notes of flail. horns were
heard echoing over the snow clad hills and
fields, seemingly drawing nearer and nearer
to Elmwood avenue. It was necessary to
listen only a few moments before the merry
jingling of sleigh bells were heard, and soon
stopped before the house of Miss Carrie,
where about 30 couple alighted, and sailed
in to tarry a little while. There 'was someth-
ing however very onimnous shown in the
various little packages and baskets which
accompanied the new comers, and which
were with so much care and expertness
deposited in a safe place. After an hour or
more had been spent in congratulations and
various sports, the order came to choose
partners for the grand march, furnished by
Oflln’s band. ' ‘
This, and the like amusement continued
for hours, strictly in accordance with a pro-
gramme, furnished by the committee. when
at 1 o’clock, the order again came,‘~ “choose
. partners for a march to the supper table.”
This was complied with, when the company,
led by Miss C. and Mather arched around
the table, where were beautifully arranged
the contents of the many mysterious pack-
ages so slyly brought in. In the center of
the table, was a large frosted cake, on
which in heavy raised letters was the name
hCarrie,” the work of the noted artist
» Dugdale. An hour was here pleasantly
spent in partaking of the many delicacies
of the season, when the company disperSed
to the many rooms of the house, some en-
joying a familiar chat, others their cigraretts,
which seemed in abundant supply.
In addition ‘to the presence of many of
the elite of our city, the presence of Miss
Gray and the Misses. Sceley of New Canaan ,
—and the Messrs. Bearse, Waterbury,
Lauder, Stephens, Gangwere' of our city
and Messrs. Whitney, Finney, and llallock
from the Borough, added greatly to the
success of the “surprise.” '

Dalia GAZETTE :—
On Friday evening a party of young gents
and ladies, about seventy-five in number,
assembled at the house of J. B. Hurlbutt,
Esq,- at Cannon’s Station, to give Mrs. Hurl-
butt’s daughter Lina, a surprise in honor of
her nineteenth birthday. ‘ They were warmly
welcomed, as I can testify, by Mr. and Mrs.
H. as well asthc young lady herself, and as
I passed from room to room it seemed as if
they had been arranged by some fairy instead
of fairfingers. Every part was a model of
neatness and beauty,—it was arranged with
artistic taste. We noticed among the num—
ber present representatives from Bridgeport,
Norwalk, South Wilton, Wilton, North
Wilton, New Canaan, Georgetown, and
Bidgefield. About nine o’clock the dancers
clmmenced to keep step to the lively music
of a violin played by Hoyt, and harp by his
accompanist, as dancing was of course the
prominent feature of the evening. About
half past eleven the doors leading to the
dining room were closed as if by magic when
behold when they were again opened the
table handsomely ' and bountifully spread
appeared in view. Sandiviches, varieties of
cake too numerous to mention, pickles,
cheese, almonds, raisens, malaga grapes and
mottoes with all the good coffee Mrs. H. has
the faculty for making, you cared to drink,
and with the help 'of ready and willing at—
tendants the company were soon generously
helped to all that heart could desire, to satis-
fy the inner man Then came another treat,
some fine music executed on the piano by
Mr. Frank Comstock, Mrs. Hurlbutt, Mrs.
Lewis Keeler and a number of others. beside
some appropriate songs by Mr. Jelliffe and
others. They tripped the light fantastic toe ..
until about half-past three, when they sepa-
rated, each expressing themselves as having
had an enjoyable time. My wish for Miss
Little is that her coming future. may pass as
pleasant with her as the evening seemed _to

‘ WESTPORT. _
They called it the January thaw and said
it was pleasant to see the snow go 50! And
some timid folks began to say the winter
was, after all, likely to be more than an aver.
age mild one. Whilethey were talking and
the water in the streets was running. there
Came a change’tending to show the treachery
of the weather and its great Washington
profit. .
Mr. and Mrs. Ephriam Osborne warmed
their‘ newly furnished house, Wednesday
evening, very appropriately, too, during the
cold cycle, assisted by an invited company
of social warmers who made things lively and
pleasant for themselves and their hosts.
It is whispered that Westport pitted against
Saugatuck in a cooking main, last Friday
night, “got licked" beautifully, though it
was all.for fun there being no stake. ' As a
consequence Saugatuck roosters are crowing
loudly.

Report says Mr. O: I. Jones has purchasrd
of Mr. Staples the Z. Sanford place, which,if
true, shows Mr. J. to be, not only wise, biit
fortunate, as the place is in all respects one
of the best situated in town. ,
It is estimated that within the bounds of
Westport this winter not less than .7000 tons
of ice have been harvested. “This gives each
inhabitant daily through the year over ten
pounds of ics,—enough, if some of the deal-
ers don‘t sell out to Norwalk folks, as was
done last year.
The approach of the. Lentenseasou was

Scraps of poetry relating to social and
church matters hereabouts, written thirty or,
forty years ago by one Mr. Ells who is re—
membered not only on account of his legs,
one ‘of which was shorter than the other, but
for his many fine traits of character, are
coming to light. Interested parties express
the hope that some of the verses will find
their way into print. '

Mr. Frederick Bedford of Green’s Farms
who has been traveling in Maine during the
past four weeks, has returned and reports
experincing terrible “cold weather, the ther.
mometer in some places sinking to 22 degrees
below zero. In the neighborhood of Ber-
wick snow stood three feet deep on a level.
Our snow, he remarks, is as mere autumn
frost compared thereto. Railroad travel
was everywhere hindered, and he expressed
tion can be comfortably maintained-
Mr. Samuel Baker is prepared to enter any
walking match against time; provided the_
stakes are such as to warrant his going into

Under the pension law .just passed by
Congress and signed by the President, quite
a number of our .citizens who did good
service during the war and sustained bodily
injury, are likely toreceivc pretty fat back
pay for work which, at the time of its per-
formance seemed leading to misfortune.
One applicant, report says, has been figuring
on the possibilities in his case, and assures
himself that he is entitled to over $2,000..
Several others hope to realize all the way
\from $500 to $1,500. These sums seem
large after the bounties given men willing ,to
fight for the Uliion, ' but who will place a
straw in the way of payment. The govern-
ment squanders annually, millions for the
benefit (?) of Indians who turn and murder
in cold blood their benefactors i—why' not
be liberal with the boys who fa'ced death in
defence of a principle, and stand ready to do
it again when their country calls.
The Trout Association expect a large econ-
signment of eggs of land locked salmon.
‘Mr. Supt. Jellifie ‘is better prepared than.
ever to conduct the hatching. New ponds
and new appliances will enable him to sus-
tain his record as a first rate fish 'man.
But for the snow on the river, the ' ice, ‘
which is reported to be in some places fifteen
inches thick, would have enabled certain of
our citizens to indulge in the sport of ice-
boat racing. . PAUL. '
. BRIDGEPORT.
Mr. A. R. Scofield, ticket agent at the
Bridgeport depot, was recently temporarily
suspended until his accounts could be exam-
ined. He was a very popular man, and the
hope was general that his accounts would be
found correct and he' be retained. He said
that he owed the company a small amount,.
but that they would not lose a dollar. Mr.
Frank M. Sammis, ofNorwalk, his former
assistant, has since been appointed as his suc-
cessor. Mr. Sammis will be assisted by Huv
bert 'Booth, - of Norwalk. The Standard
speaks in highly complimentary terms of
- Mr. Sammis, which we believe to be justly
deserved:
“Of his successor too much can hardly be
said in his favor. It would be difficult to
. finds. more pleasant, obliging, gentlemanly
young man than Mr. Sammis, or one whose
character stood higher in the estimation of
his friends. The best guarantee of his busi-
ness capabilities and Worth is the fact that he
has been appointed to the responsible posi-
tion he now fills. He has had a large experi-
ence, having been connected with the New
York, New Haven and Hartford, and the
Naiigatuck road for about nine years. He
was at the depot in this city for a time, then
went to Waterbury. only, however; to return
to the Bridgeport ofiice, where he has since
remained.” - . , '
Of Mr. Scofield, also a' Norwalk man, we
believe, the Standard also says:
“Mr. Scofield has many warm friends-who
will regret that the railroad company has
'found it necessary to sever his connection
with them, and will be slim to believe that
he is anything but the warm-hearted, jovial,
honest-intentioned friend they have always
known.” , " .

- IVEST STRATFORD.
On last Tuesday evening the Lyceum met
and debated the question, “Is a republic. the
strongest and safest form of government 7"
and, after an interesting debate lasting nearly
two hours, the president decided in favor of
the negative. A question was then chosen for
debate at the next meeting, viz—“Resolved,
That for the protection of American mechan-
ics, Chinese emigration should be suppress-
ed." Mr. W. I. Lobdell was appointed prin-
cipal in the affirmation, and Mr. Fairchild in
the negative.‘ .
On Wednesday evening the Court of Bur-
gesses met. Beyond accepting the bonds of
some of the-officers elect, no business of im-
portance was transacted. A resolution was
passed authorizing the proper authorities to
employ some responsible person or persons to
paint the lamposts. The matter , regarding
the‘extension of Lafayette street was laid on
_the table till the next meeting. ' -
. Thefuqeral of the late'Robert E. Price,
who died on Tuesday last, was largely at-
tended the following Friday. Oro'loque
‘lodge, No.90, I. O. 0. F., of Stratford, of
-which deceased was a member, attended the
funeral in a body. Rev. Mr. Davenport. of
the Park street Congregational, and Rev.
Mr._Ingersoll, of the East Washington Av-
enue Baptist church 0f Bridgeport officiated
at the funeral. Mr. Davenport delivered a
very touching address from the words, “He
that humblcth himself shall be exalted.” Dc-
ceased was only twenty-six years of age and
was for along time in the employ of W. R.
Frisbie 7&3 Co.'of Bridgeport. After leaving
their employ he embarked in business for
himself in this place, but failing health com-
pelled him to relinquish all busrness, and for
nearly a year he was a sufferer, till at last
death put an end to his sufferings.

The report of Col. Wm. F. Taylor. Audilor
of the State of Virginia, to the legislature now
in session, shows that the State of Virginia
received a revenue last year from the use of
the “bell punch" by liquor sellers, of $472,- ,
831.14 against $262,195.25 received,,the pre-
vious year,~under the license law, without
the “bell punch." Col. Taylor furthersays
in his report: "The inquiry has frequently
been made at this office by persons residing
outsidcas well as within,the limits of the
State in regard to the efficiency of the Moffat
law as an agency for the colleetiou of reve—
nue. From the beginning I have never
doubted its power in this respect, and the re-
sults, partial though they be, of the working
of the experiment have strongly confirmed
me in my first impressions. * r
The measure proposed is one for revenue,
and no outside question should be allowed to
embarrass it."—Bridgeport Farmer.
The State _of Louisiana has adopted the
“Liquor Bell Punch System,” because of the.
success of the experiment in Virginia, and
North Carolina and Alabama will probably
adopt the same system at the 'present session
of their Legislatures. _
According to the reports of the United
States Revenue Collectors, there are, today,
about 2,700 retail liquor dealers 'in this State.
If each one was obliged to “ring in the pres-
ence of the gay drinkairc,” a light tax on
each drink they sell, into the treusury of the
respectzbe towns in which they transact biwiness
the pauper funds would receive a' material
increase. '
The. benefits of this method, 11] our over-
taxcd town, wlll be plainly apparent to any
sensible thinking man. If the income deriv-
cd from this source were devoted to the de-
frayal of certain expenses in each town, does
it require any very great amount of intellect
to see that the benefit would be greater than
if the licences were duly paid into the State
Treasury? We think the people of Norwalk
have already suffered enough through the
"payment of' their excessively high taxes not
to welcome any mode of relief that might be
put forth in their behalf.
By glancing at the above article from the
Farmer you will see that the, gain of the
“bell punch” system over the system of lt-
censes without the “bell punch" is .over
$200,000 for a sing'legeai'. . Is $200,000 saved
(for it is saved) to theState Treasury to he
laughed at? Think of it, you who pinch
and scrape to pay your taxes, and ask your-
selves as to whether it would be practicable
to adopt such a method. ' "ll.
