tative Blair to ‘sii’efce‘ddr Senator Wa‘dlcigh.
This .wlilzbea surprise to Mr. Wadleigli’a
friends outside the State, who had supposed
his return at least probable. ‘ A special war.
fare, which, unfortunately and unnecessar-
ily ran into bitter personal assaults, broke
out during the canvass, but the result gives
us a stalwart Republican, an able and honest
man and a soldier, while Ex-Senntor Wad-
leigb, with his emeneuce at the bar of his
State. will be personally and pecuniarly
greatly advantaged .b'y pot being longer har-
sd with the cares of office. .
The new nominee, Henry W. Blair, was
born Diccmbcr ll, 1834. He received an
academic education, and was admitted, to
the bar in 1859. He was attorney for Graf.
ton County in 1860, and during the war
served in the ,Union Army as Lieutenant-
Cofonel'of the 15th New Hampshire Regi-
menf. He has been a member of both houses
of the :State Legislature, and has servcd
in the XLIVth and XLVth Congresses.

Tue Norwalk party sailed for Europe on
Saturday, their steamer, the City of Chester,
leaving Pier 37, North' River, at 2:30 p. m.
A large number of Norwalk and other friends
crowded the wharf to see them depart and
bid them kind adieus. The City of Chester
is one of the finest ships of the Inmau line,‘
and she had a f:-.ir and select company of first
class passengers,‘among their number being
the famous vocalist, Marie Rose Mapleson.
.The party from Norwalk consisted of Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas H. Morison and son, Mr.
and Mrs. A. H. Nefi, Mr. and Mrs. Charles
E. St. John, and Miss Birdie ,Olmstesd.
Among thosé who'weut down to see the
party ofi were Mr. and Mrs. William H.
Earle, S. E. Olmstesd, E. K..Lockwood,
Mrs. Jonathan Camp and son, Wilford Smith
and sister, Asa- Smith and daughter, A. H.
Camp and daughter, Mrs. Dr. Coolidge, Wm.
C. Street, George R. Cholwell and two
daughters and daughter of George E. Miller,
George M. Holmes, James Cousins, Thornton
Prowitt and wife,Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Crofut,
son and daughter, Arthur Osborn,Charles G. ~
Dean, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph F. Foote, Mr.
and Mrs. Hutchinson. The day was most
charming and the great owes steamer swung
into the stream and passed slowly on her
way to sea amid the parting cheers and wav-
ing of haudkerchiefs of loved ones. Bon

Our State’s Attorney. ,
State's Attorney Olmstead concluded
another criminal term of the court at Bridge-
port, on Friday last.. The psi-severing in-
dustry and genuine fidelity which Mr. Olm—
stead brings to the discharge Of his ofilcial
duties are so marked that it is a pleasure to
refer to him in terms of the strongest-com-
mendation. One of the Judges ina private
note to a friend the other day interjected
the remark that he thought the Fairfield
County State's Attorney, was the most
conspicuously, earnest and energetic officer
in the State. This is a compliment our
friend Olmstcad has a right to appreciate,
for all will concede it is well deserved. If
he could only get cured of his political here-
sies,what a clever fellow and statesman he
wont dmake! ‘

.Thc Cooking Club met at Miss Edna
Hoyt's, last week, and Cyrus Scofield trans-
ported the Norwalk members most safely
and delightfully to “Canaan‘s happy shore”
in the big omnibus. A very delightful even-
ing was passed at the hospitable mansion of
Mr. Edwin Hoyt, and in the sma’ hours of _
the morning the feasted party came troop-
ing back to town, filled with memories of
delicious strawberries and sweet cream from
the Alderuey dairy. In the case of one young
disciple of Blackstone, it is said the straw.
berries proved too acidulous and he became
very much “mixed? in his ideas, and he was
overheard to mutter, “where's the economy
and eucourageincntfior a young man to marry
in these rich dishes any way ?" He was
soon suppressed however and gradually yield-
ed to soporific influences.
A Connection.
We are gratified to learn that Capt. Per-
kins has at last made arrangements with the
Danbury 6!. Norwalk Railroad Co. for the
purpose of selling. through tickets on the
boat, and at any station on the road, so that
people living anywhere along the line can
get their tickets to go and return at the same
price as hertofore, avoiding the annoyance
of having to get them on the boat. Thurs—
day of each week has been made as a special
day for excursiouists on the Danbury road,
the rates being made half fare to and from
each station, which will give the public a
very cheap excursion to New. York and
return, and we have no doubt but what
numerous. parties from Danbury and inter—
mediate stations on the road will be made up
to visit the city, Central Park, and possibly
Rockaway Beach. The enterprise is a good
one and should be well patronized, which we
have no doubt will be the case.
GRAND Pie-Nro.—Burgess Cousins and his
sons are arranging to give all their employees
a grand picnic to Roton Point, next Monday
It is proposed to start from their Shoe Manu-
factory at about 9 o’clock, a. m., the line
being headed by the Westport‘ Band. There
will be about 250 persons in the party, and
it will require a dozen carryalls and some
other carriages to transport the party. The
start will be well worth seeing. Dinner will
be served at the Point, and music will be fur-
nished for dancing, the party returning in
the evening.
Psnsost—Mr. Frank Leonard was rusti-
cating in the beautiful town of Walton,N.Y.,
last week. He returned Saturday.
Misses Hattie Quintard, of this place, and
Annie Hyatt, of Brooklyn, contemplate mak.
ing a vist to Mr. Charles Quintard, in Wis—
consin, this summer. They will be escorted
out by Mr. Fred. H. Quintard.
Mr. John Camp has been recuperating in
the Catskill mountains.
Cashier Street has been confined to the
house for several weeks. We are glad to
see that he is able to ride out again. ‘
Mr. Joshua Heyt, of Bethel, is visiting
with relatives and friends in Norwalk.
Mr. and Mrs. John H. Keyser are spending
the summer very quietly and enjoyably in

Tut, Tut. ~
This is, the way the Norwalk Demoera
kicks the party traces like a fractious colt.
Such treason to its party leadership, while it
shows an honest and manly independence,
will nevertheless have to be disciplined and
“dealt wit .” We shall see what sort of song it
will sing after ex-Senator Barnum again pur-
chases the nomination for Tilden as the
democratic Presidential candidate for 1880.
Hear this from our spunky contemporary :
The New York Tim says that Mr. Til-
den is very busy or ' .ing a movement in
Ohio to defeat Gen. Ewing .snd the demo.
cratic ticket, fearing that its success will
make Senator Thurman the coming man for
the presidency. There is nothinginiprobable
in this story. A man profossmg to be I
Democrat, and who helped to defeat Gen.
Case for the presidency over thirtieears up;
a man who made Mr. Bigelow, a ,pubhcan
editor of this same N ew York How, a sec-
retary of State outhe Democratic ticket over
the heads of tried and true Democrats; a
man who fanned an alliance last fall with
Republicans in New York city to defeat the
Democracy of that city and hand the city
government over to the Republican party; a
man who took no part in saving the country
during the late war, would not be likely to
hesitate long in attempting to defeat two
brave Union gen 5 Ewmg and Rice
are—if he could see that by so doing he
could ruin. Scooter Thurman's chances for

,-’ The examination of teachers by the Board
Of School Visitors is to take place next week
Monday. According to the official notice all
teachers to be employed in the public schools
of the town for the ensuing year are to be
‘cxamined in the manner prescribed by the
Stalelaivs. As the law requires only the
teaching of ordinary English branches, we
presume that the examinatién will be confined
to those branches. As the teachers here
passed similar examinations, some of them
quite often, they have little cause for fear.
we understand that this course has been
adopted by the Board after mature deliter-
atiou, and that it is the intention to con-
tinue these examinatians in the future, at
stated intervals, as in other States. The
objeci is simply for the good of the Schools,
and when the ”practice is once fairly estab—
lished we have no doubt but that it will
prove satisfactory to all concerned.

The town was very generally decorated—'-
thc streets spanned with triumphal evergreen
arches inscribed with appropriate mottoes,
and the stores and private residences gay
with flags, streamers, ribbons, flowers, etc.
So general was the decoration that to under~
take to name them we should be obliged to
print a complete list of residents-in fact we
never saw a country place so completely
dressed in holiday attire as was this enter—
prising little town. -
Norwalk figured quite largely in the pro-
ceedings of the day, and- it was right and
proper that she should do so, for one, of her
citizens, Engineer Rider, was the man who
planned and supervised» the construction of
the works. ‘ We wcrc'rcpresented by our en-
tire Borough Fire Department, and one com-
pany—Putnam Hose—from the city.

were, if possible, more pleased with their
handsome truck than ever before—didn't see
any they would care to swap with.
There were, including home companies,
thirteen in iine,rcprescnting six departments,
viz , Bcthcl, Danbury, New Milford, Nor-
walk, South Norwalk and Westport; prob-
ably about 700 men. '
The visiting firemen were on their arrival.
escorted to their different quarters where
they had a very bountiful lunch served them
by the ladies of the place, and at the close of
the marching they were all taken into a large
tent where they enjoyed a fine collation, also
presided over by the ladies, who were so
smiling and attentive that the firemen felt
well repaid. for their long march, although
the last two miles of it was in a light driz-
zling rain, owing probably to their near vicin-
ity to the Danbury Town line.
Phoenix 00. was accompanied by the Howe
Drum Corps, and Hope Hose had Martin’s
Drum Corps; Pioneer H. 8: L. had a Drum
Corps engaged but they. failed- to connect.
Our companies returned on a special train
at about six o’clock, all delighted with the
pleasant time had aud‘euthusiastic over the
treatment received on all sides.
Phoenix Engine Co. gave a working exhi-
bition of their Engine in order to please and
gratify the multitudes prescnt,many of whom
had never before had an opportunity of seeing
a steam fire engine at work. Their engine
_ was stationed in front of the Chief Engi-
neer’s quarters, and taking suctiou‘from a
one to a great distance to the evident satisfac-
tion of all; the steamer, as she always does,
worked easily and well.
The handsome exhibitions of the power of
the water works made at different points
along thcline were quite unique 'aud pleasing
and showed conclusively that our Bethcl
friends certainly have a very good and pow-
erful supply of water.
’ The Westport companies came over to Nor-
waik to take the cars for Bethcl, and were
met and escorted in and through the village
fto the depot by a delegation from our
”department, led by the How'c Drum Corps.
On, their return at night, Chief Engineer
Raymond took them in hand and escorted
them out, with those of the department who
had returned on the special train, thus giving
our people a little parade, both morning and
evening.
Restored to Duly.
Engineer Howiund, of the steamer Adel-
phi, at the time of the explosion of her
boiler last September, having been honorably
acquitted by the United States Court at
Hartford, has been formally restored to his
duties again as engineer. A letter from the
clerk of the court was received by the
company acknowledging his acquittal, and
upon its being presented togthc United States
Inspector his license was immediately return-
ed to him.

Batcheller and Doris‘s Great Rail Road
Show will exhibit in Norwalk, on Wednes
day, June 25th. Our exchanges every where
speak in the highest terms of the show.
The following is from the Jersey City J our—
nal of June 9th.
Last Saturday Batcheller and Doris’ Great
Rail RoadShomMuseum, Menagerie and
Circus paid-our city a visit. The largest
crowd (since Barnum was here) filled the
Barge tents both day and nights—there must
have been 9,000 persons at the afternoon and
evening performances. The reason for this
large out-pouring of the masses is easily ex-
plained when We say the price of admission
was only 25 cents. The managers, with a
shrewd foresight that is very commendable,
argued that, with their largely increased
facility for accommodating the public, they
could afford to reduce the pricein accordance
with the generally depressed condition of the
times. That the show was good, in fact much
better than exhibitions of this kind, was the
universal verdict of the people who attended
the performances. The riding of Miss Mollie
Brown was perfection itself, while Romeo
Sebastian and Alexis Scarfar fairly outdid
themselves in their eflorts to please the large
audiences'prescnt. The Siegrists are well
called phenomenal, for such graceful and
perfect illustrations of the gymnastic art.
The cloWns, too, furnished their share of
amusement and were irresistibly funny. The
menage'rie *and museum were unexceptiou-
ably interesting and instructive. The large
elephant, Empress,‘ astonished all beholders
by her intelligent interpretation of her-part
of the programme. The whole show was a
grand success. and we cheerfully commend it
to everybody.

Councilmen Knapp and Dibble made a

Hotel properly on Thursday last. Dibble
had heard that street committceman Knapp
proposed to remove some 'of the dirt from
the cellar of the new hotel to a vacant lot to
be used at some.future time for the benefit
of the city. Dibble thinking that Knapp
needed some advice on the subject, went to
him and offered him his. They talked some
time quietly, but all at once there seemed to
be a commotion and Councilman Knapp's list
was seen going up at Dibble's nose, at which
he turned on his heels, and pointed for the
Old Hen Club. We understand that some
hot words passed between them.
We understand that the batters of Crofut
d7 Knapp propose to call their shop, and over-
haul Charley Stevens for plowing ou the Old
Well property. It was a sight to see, and
we can’t blame them much. But Charley is
aworkcr, and he was only getting dirt to
finish and beautify his new residence, and we
hope his brother workmen will overlook it
this time. Mr. Swartz is hard at it now, we
don't know who will go for him.

We see by our local journal that they cell
i. meeting of our citizens and the discus-

pretty state of affairs when such men as
State Treasurer Baker,Reprcscntative Rowan,
Water Commissioner Solmaus, Major Chas.
E. Doty, Councilman Dibble anda‘ number
of others cannot go to a city meeting and
make suggestions, which everybody knows
is done for the benefit of the city, without
being told that it is “Unwarrantcd Med-
dling.” We are glad to see such men come
out and express their opinions and the people
appreciate it. For the lack of this “Unwar—
ranted Meddling" by our best citizens, we
have been subjected to many abuses in former
years. The journal also intimates that these
gentlemen have no confidence in the present
Council; they know that the assertion is er-
roneous, and is meant ’tt') deceive, for the
council is composed of the same class of
men as assembled in the city meeting, and
will undoubtedly take this suggestions in the
way that they were intended—for the best
interests 'of the city.
- We hear a great nuise made by a few, cry-
ing out for a day police to protect the steam—
boat passengers as they gét off. Why can’t
the Mayor have the police go on duty 9. little
earlier, as Mayor Hauford did last summer?
He had one stationed at the railroad crossing
and one at the steamboat. But no, there
seems to bc a determination on the .part of
some, to have a day police; and they are do
ing everything they can, and in every way
to saddle us with the expenses of another
policeman. We don’t no more need a day
police, than a cat does two tails, and 'the
people do not propose to submit to if.‘ It
was on this issue alone that Mayer Quintard
lostso many votes at the last election, and it
was hoped that he would not persist in his
desire.
The school Festival given by the Union

the “Star Spangled Banner” by about one

preciated. The next was a declamatiou,
“The Black horse and his Rider," by Master
Eddie .Russell, and was well rendered; “Jo
and J can Anderson” came next, and was sung
by_, Master George Lauder and Miss May
Goodwin, in Scotch costume. The Indian
club exercise followed,by fourteen boys with
two pound clubs, which brought down the
house; the recitation, “Robert of Sicily,” by
Miss Kate Camp, was exceptionally fine.
The fun of the evening was the dialogue,
“A sea of Troubles ;” Oliver Raymond as
old man and Miss Kate Haulenbeck, as
Jennie, did well, we might say they all did
well, but have not room to mention all the
names.~ After intermission Misses Selleck
.snd Merrill played a pianoduett; after which
came the dumb bell exercises by about twen-
t‘y young ladies, and was perfectly grand;
there was not an error perceptible; they did
some fine marching, and the novelty of mak-
ing a figure eight in the mdrch was well done.
The little “Toad Stool” seemed to please the
house. The’drama of “Cinderella," by such
little folks, seemed to surprise the audience;
little Iola Swords, as Cinderella, and Misses
Gregory and Saunders as her sisters, and
Master Remington as the Prmce, and Master
Davis as his servant, did splendidly. The
two scenes from King Henr ‘the Fifth was
well rendered by Master \ illiam Foote as
King Henry, Miss Kate Camp as Catharine,
as also did Miss Seymour as maid. Miss
Bertha McQuhae recited . “The Young
Soldier” splendidly. Between the scenes of
Henry'the Fifth, little Miss Goodwin .came
before the curtain and recited a little piece,
and did it well, The closing piece w "A
school of Jolly Folks," by the juven es of
the schools. The whole affair passed off
nicely. Our city folks are justly proud of
their school. Too much praise cannot be be—
stowed on our corps of teachers for their
untiringcfforts in‘ making the entertainment
such a success.
