WILTON.
Town meeting will be held in about two
months, and who are to be the 00111ng town
fathers will soon begin to be the question of
the hour. , ' ' ‘
Mr. Dharles S. Betts, a Wilton boy who.
is traveling in Texas, recently witnessed
from his hotel window one of those shoot-
ing incidents so common in that locality.
' There is as yet no settled physician in
\Vilton, and a great many people are making
WESTPORT.
A Saugatuek égrocer bought the grass on
the Flagg estate this summer, and the man
he hired to mow it Was obligedto grind his
scythe several times which, the grocer hear-
ing of considered an inimvation upon regular
hay and harvest operations, thinking no
doubt that it should be done before his man
went to woik. At the time of settling the
bill he actually deducted at the rate of fifteen
cents an hour from the mower’s wages. In
submitting to this indignity the mower is
said to have remarked, “A powerful microg
scope must fail to detect the presence any-
where of that grocer's soul."
Everybody of late, between the summit
of hill on the east side of Peat Swamp and
Honnccker’s bake wagon'as it stands daily
(Sunday’s excepted). at the summit of the
themselves sick worrying about it. Wilton
offers many advantages to a physician with
moderate expectations,which weuld compen-
sate in some measures the absence of a large
practice. ‘ .
Mr. T. M. Raymond, of Belden’s Hill,
has built an addition to his barn. This im-
provement however is neutralized by some of
his efforts in another direction. "
Mr. Edward Olmstead has been trimming
up his ornamental trees, which serves to ;re—
veal to the public eye some of the hitherto
unseen attractions of his pleasact home.
The happy residents of Cannon’s Station
expect soon to revel amid the delights of a
tsehool tax.
Our town barn needs repainting.
We understand that Judge Reed proposes
to fence CaunOn’s Station in as soon as he
can procure a suiilcent quantity of rails. We
are glad that there is one person who is suf;
ficiently aroused to the importance of pre-
serving that community from the despoiling
tread of the vulgar herd. .
Mr. Charles E. Gregory is constantly
reporting progress in the way of improve—
ments. , ‘
Mr. P. S. Coley is such a good marksman
hill on. the west side of the swamp, 'there
has been seen wandering a man' shabbily
dressed and looking like a tramp. So far as
knoflh§ has not molested anybody, but;
fears are entertained that he is a dangerous
character and likely to make trouble. His
movements are suspicious, his actions sug—
gesting that he is waiting a chance to pounce
upon acme person whom he shall find is .1-
proteeted. Many women walk through
Peat Swamp to and from Norwalk, and these
will do well to give the fellow a wide birth.
He seems to avoid men,. darting into and
hiding. among the bushes on either side of
the way as he sees them approach. How the
man subsists is not known, as none of the
people in the vicinity have ever given him
food or lodging. It will be acharitable act
a well as the duty of the Norwalk authorities
to take this man into custody.
In answer. to the complaint of Rufus
Wakeman of Saugatuck, that the young
people :who hired Staplcs’ grove and gave
evening - entertainments at which dancing
was indulged in disturbed his nightly repose,
Mr. Horace Staples has caused the dancing
platforms, benches and music stands erected
in the grove to be removed, and, it is report-
that he recently killed a raccoon by shooting
him with a broomstick.
How many young men their are who un-
consciously betray thc-vocation of their Mary
Ann.
Mr. Charles Cook who has been for several
years in the employ of the late Mr. Char-
rand, sailed for Holland, on Saturday last.
Will. L. Bailey, who is well known in
Wilton, was in town last week.
The public school in So. Wilton will close
next week. ‘ ‘
The Rev. Mr. Barnett has resuscitated and
reorganized the Sunday school at St. Mat-
, theWs, and it is now in. an efficient condition.
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Westcott are spend-
ing a few days at the family homestead.
The Rev. Mr. Merwin is off on his annual
vacation. '
Mr. Henry W. Gilbert, of Poughkeepsie,
is spending his vacation with his father; he
isLaccompauied by a friend, Mr. Morris.
Mrs. Benj. Hubbell of Derby is visiting
with her sister, Mrs. Geo. K. Gilbert.
Mr. T. M. Buyinoud has been ordered by
the selectmen to remove certain obstructions
from the highway, or the same will be re—
moved by the authorities at his expense.
Mr. R. is woven treats these kindly admon-
tions of our town fathers with the utmost
indifference, and there the matter stands.
The Rev. Mr. Morse occupied the pulpit
of the Congregational Church on Sunday,
speaking in behalf of the Howard Mission.
It is openly charged that our local philos—
opher is “Will Tenn,” and that he, by as—
suming such a title is guilty of presump-
tious egotism. If that is the feeling 'preval-
ent; if Will Tonn’s representations are doubt-
ed, the .“local philosophers shall be paid off
and discharged, and sent to some foreign
clime where his observation will be better
received. -
We understand that Dr. Gorham has hung
out his shingle in Wilton! that Dr. Comstock
spends two hours here daily, and that a Dr,
Huntington is visiting Wilton “to spy out
the land.” To these may be added Dr. Fred.
Sturges who is not in active practice, and
Dr. White of the Army who is residing here
to recruit is health, both of whom we pre-
sume could be relied on in an emergency.
Unndef these circumstances Wilton seems to
ell fortified against disease.

There is now living in the Town Of Wilton
Connecticut a lady who is in her ninety-second
year and who is remarkably well and active,
not being infirm or bowed with the weight of
years; nor is her eyesight dim, and she can
read and sew perfectly well without glasses.
Her memory is not much impaired altho’ she
can bring to mind more perfectly things that
happened a half century ago. She attends
to her household matters with the niceness
of a young house keeper. So fearful is she
that age will make her bend that often times
she is supported with her stay and board,
such as our Grandmothers used to wear a
century ago. WILTON.
DARIEN. .
The Congregational Sunday School had a
delightful time at Roton Point Wednesday.
About one hundred and fifty went with the
excursion.
Miss E._D. Ward has taken the Seminary
and will open a school in September. She
taught a number of years in the college for
young ladies at Elmira, New York. Her
recommendations are all of the highest
order. The President of the Elmira College
speaks of Miss W. as a lady of rare culture,
and as a teacher Of marked success. As the
Seminary building is one of the best in- the
State, we are hoping to. have a flourishing
school. There are rooms ample and pleasant
for thirty boarders, beside day pupils.
The young people of the Congregational

Mr. William Newman, over 74 years of

the neck. Mr. Newman was getting salt
hay on the meadows opposite his residence.
He was in the wagon, in the act of loading,
when the horses became frightened from the

A brutal sight was witnessed by the dwel—
lers on Adam’s avenue, early Sunday morn-
ing——a woman clad with only the scantiest
of night clothin , followed through the street
by an infuria husband, who ever and anon
applied to her person vigorous . fist blows
which could be heard for some distance. 011
theirreac ' home the fist was snperceded
by a switch. Throughout the whole'ordeal
no sound was heard from the woman s lips.
It seems she has a custom of getting period-

Nearly $300—the amount needed by the
committee Tappointed to provide entertain-
ment for visitors on the occasion of the pro-
posed parade of the Westport Fire Depart—
ment, Septemder 3d, have been subscribed.
With what the village ladies are likely to
contribute in the way of pastry, the com—
mittee feel this amount will enable them to
defray all expenses. Provision will be made
for abOut 700 visitors. The committee in-
formally express the hope that citizens will
take it upon themselves to do all in their
own peculiar way, outside of what they have
given, toaid in rendering the occasions suc.
cess. It should be stated that many of those
who formerly were backward in helping
committees or entertainment, are, in this
matter, among the largest contributors.
Mr. Ten Broeck is expected in town Tues-
day evening to enter- upon the work of fit-
ting “Pinafore” for the stage. The rehearsa
at Sturges’ Hall at that time will be an ini-
portant one and every singer proposing to
take part should be. present. The presence
Of a manager so competent as this gentleman
is known to be, will imparts new impetus
to the work, and he should be aided by the
ladies and gentlemen, a sufiicieut number of
whom can, if they will, turn out on that oc-
casion. '
Mr. John Bradley, son of Lewis Bradley,

Utica. N. Y., was sent for to attend to it. He
finished the task last week.
saugatuck river is literally filled with

catching them.
An incident suggestive of sad thoughts oc-
curred last Tuesday, While a man named
John Baker was mowing sedge on the shore
of Sherwood’s milllpond near the New Haven

Westport people visiting Norwalk have
admired the beauty of three or four door-
yards opposite the Town House, since the
removal of front fences. They now see that
iron fences are to take the place of the old
ones. What a pity? PAUL.

' BRIDGEPORT.
The Frary-Cutlery company has leased
one of the large factory buildings of the Howe
Sewing Machine Company, and is going ex:-
tensively into the cutlery making business.
In furtherance of this purpose, Mr. Frary
has been to England and engaged at large
force of English cutlery workers to come
over to Bridgeport. The steamer Algeria
from Liverpool, which arrived Tuesday
night, had among other passengers twenty—
two families, numbering 102 persons all
practical cutlcrs from Shefiield. They are
very orderly and respectable looking and
they had not left Shefiield for want of work
but upon the invitation of Col. Frary, who
had offered them extra wages with comfor-
table dwellings. Col. Frary says the men
are fair physical and intellectual samples of
open, hospitable, quick tempered, improvi—,
dent British workmen. The wages they will
make here are not materially in excess of
English wages. With steady employment
at home, they earn from $9 to $15 a Week ;
but the trouble is that there are thousands
of men out of work in Sheffield and hun—
dreds of others are working on half time,
earning not more than from $5‘to 88a week.
They are to work by the piece, not by the
day, in Bridgeport, and at the rates stipu-
lated expect to earn from $1.50 to $2.50 per
day. Saving rents, ‘the necessaries of- life
can be obtained at about the same schedule of
prices as at home. But one of the main
points, the men say is to get where a man
can save something if he -wishes, and where
public sentiment has not irrevocably set
against a man trying to make something of
himself.
In the Bridgeport directory for 1879-80,
are the names of fifty—eight corporations
doing business in that city, and representing
an aggregate capital of nearly $6,000,000.
These are exclusive of the partnership con
cores and others in trade, and are mostly
manufacturers. They embrace fifty different
lines of business, and of the capital involved
only about $2,250,000 is in the sewing ma-
chine business. '
Thomas Hancart, a puddler in the employ
of the Farlst Steel Works met with a serious

cutting a hole eleven inches long through
the skull, inflicting a very dangerous wound.

ageous and prompt action of Mrs. Leeds,wlio

its financial value at $112,865.
Mrs. John Hartigan, of Kossutli street,

baby upon it, in order that the child might
amuse herself by looking out. While her
attention was momentarily diverted, the
bady crawled to the window and fell out,
falling from the height of three stories. to

it died.

Saratoga.
Ens. Guerra—In your issue of last week
you very kindly informed the very many
readers of the old Gazette, that a party would
leave Norwalk on Tuesday for the purpose
of spending a few days at Saratoga Springs.
Thinking you would be pleased to have an
account of the trip by an eye witness, I will
try and furnish it. On Tuesday the party
(consisting of seven) left the Norwalk Depct
on the 9:30 train for Danbury, where we ar-
rived after a veryplcasant run of about One
hour over the steel rails which the Danbury
.1: Norwalk R. R., have just finished laying.
At Danbury we took the branch road which
connects with the Housatonic R. R. at Brook-
field junction, at the junctioulwe had to wait
about 15 minutes for the arrival of the Hous-
atonic train which time was very pleasantly
occupied by a gentleman who had the appear-
ance of a “Church Deacon”. relating his ex-
perience of hotel life. He had on a_clean linen
duster on which he had invested 50cts. to have
washed and ironed. On leaving his hotel he
gave instructions to the porter (if he priz-
edghis life) to take the best of care of his cl‘ean
duster, as he wished to appear outwardly
clean, expecting to meet some lady friends on
the train. His remarksafiorded very much
pleasure to our I young friend Miss D. 'On
the arrival of the train, we all secured good
seats so that we might enjoy the beautiful
scenery along the line of the road. In due
time we arrived at Van Duesenville and with-
out change of cars took the branch for State
Line. Nothing, so far, had ,occured to mar
the enjoyment of the trip, , and everything
was running along smoothly, when, near West
Stockbridge we were startled by the usual
railroad signal of danger, the engineer revers-
ing the engine and leaping some thirty feet
down an enbankmeut we all were immediate-
ly on our feet prepared for the worst. When
the train was brought to a stand, it was dis-
covered that the engine had struck a cow,
which had at that moment appearedon the
track from out the bushes. On a careful ex-
amination it was found that the front wheels
of the tenderhud left the trackand run a dis-
tance of about 200 feet on the ties, over a
brook, where the water thirty feet below was
quietly weuding its way. Fortunately no one
was injured, but all very much frightened.
All hands assistcdju getting the tender on the
track which was done in a very short time
when the engineer mounted the Iron Horse,
gave the signal and away we started for State
Line, Albany and Saratoga, we arrived at the
latter place. 7,45. At the Hotel Continental
we were met by Mr. Lewis Curtis who had
made all arrangements with the landlord to
whom we are greatly indebted for the excel-
ent accommodations afforded us. During the
evening we improved the time by a view of
- the grand Hotels of Saratoga. At the United
States we saw our friend the “Chief J ustice”
in close consultation with a gentleman in blue
clothes and brass buttons who on inspection
proved to be one of the policemennvho by
the countenance of the Judge it is but fair to
presume had no arrests to report. On Tues-
day, our party which had been increased by
the arrival of our former tinman but now
farmer, Geo. 1F. Belden. wife and daughter,
drove to the beautiful Saratoga lake, which
is situated some four miles from the center of
the City. As was expected our first enquiring
was for a clam roast and enquiry was made
for our friend “Dorlon”but he did not respond
After a stay of a short time we returned to our
hotel, prepared for dinner, which was greatly
relished by all; the evening was very much
enjoyed by a strole up and down Broadway
admiring the beautiful costumes of the pass-
ing throng. There are many places of attrac-
tion, that space will not permit me to dis-
cribe, but I will venture [one .or two. The
Congress Park is a lively spot, situated on
Broadway and is owned by the Congress
Park 00., who cxpends a large amount of
money in beautifing and ornamenting for the
purpose of pleasing the large number of
people who visit it daily. The Congress and
Columbia Springs are situated in the park.
The Indian encampment is worthy of at.
tention and no one should return without a
visit there. Wednesday was [disposed of
until 4 o’clock, when our party hired
conveyances and visited the Geyser, Spont—
ing, High Rock ,and Sulphur Springs. Up
to this time We had met but with the-one
accident heretofore spoken of, and all was
going along nicely when the ladies gave one
of their screams, which was perfectly render-
ed and behold the wheel had left the hind
axle of the conveyance and running an
independent line. This happened about ten
minuts walk froin Sulphur Springs and about
2; miles from the hotel. It was necessary for
us to walk to the Spring and we were very
politely told by the driver that he would re—
turn for another conveyance, when a happy
thought with lightning rapidity disclosed the
fact that the whole matter could be remedied
by a leather washer. An order was given to
form a hollow square, and in the center was
discovered the driver (the 'greatest living
wonder of the age,) with boot inhand, cut-
ting the much required washer, which, when
finished and applied showed the necessity of
having one in a' party who is equal to any
emergency. ": s i V ' ' ’ , "
Our ride home was very much enjoyed by
the gentlemen, while the ladies were holding
on with both hands, and watching, expecting
that the wheel would at any momen “ '
leave the axle. We arrived
about 7 o‘clock very much refr‘
Thursday, we visited High R0 ,
where I thought some of our par wd
obliged to remain, owing to '
water that was disposed of. i
could not be satisfied, the
the more was wanted, and tit
until they liadlooked at th ,
ninth glass. Our friend Mr
always accompanied us on or
whom we are greatly indebteildf
interest taken to make our bill
ant, greatly enjoyed the spo
visit I will try and give you a
cription of the beauties and did
of interest in and about Sarat’6g'a.
