Items Crowded. out last week.
WEST NORWALK.
Mr. George Dugdale issoon to, remove his:
popular grocery store info the old :s‘cliool
house building. Mr. Davis is to Open with a
stock of gréc'eries in the building.,,which_,Mr. ,
D. will vacate... ‘
The Messrs. Kmoman, of Boston, now
occupy the house of Mr. Theodore Prince,
and intend to start ahencry on a large scale.
West Norwalk has developed an object of
interest for the curious and scientific animal
always called a donkey. has of late made a
noise something resembling a young rooster
trying to crow. Query—Is it really a donkey
or a halfdledged rooster, or does it get too
much mountain dew while glazing—I mean
grazing.
Mrs. Carter, for a number of years a resi-
dent of this neighborhood is lying ‘very ill at
the home of her daughter in Silver Mine.
Mr. Fuller has made good the loss of one of
our prominent families by moving into the
house lately occupied by Mrs. C.
The item in regard to the chicken affair
was a misrepresentation from beginning to
end. If widows wish to raise poultry for a
living it would be well to get their neighbor’s
consent before they incloseall the available
space owned by themselves (with the excep—
tion of a few barren feet), in a chicken proof
fence, and then scare and drive said chickens
on their neighbor’s premises to get a living
or teach their neighbors that it is better to be
annoyed silently for years than to remonstrnte
ever so mildly, by having dead' chickens
thrown into their wells. That such has been
the case can be vouched for by those whose
truthfulness has never (to their knowledge)
been questioned. All that the woman had
to do with the affair was to demand the trap
that had been stolen from the premises; for-
tunately they were not baited with citron
and were forthcoming. This is the first and
last notice that will be taken of covert, un—
derhand insinuations. The fox trap mention-
ed was once set to catch a skunk, and the
experiment was eminently successful, but
the owner regretted that such was the case
for a long time, and has profited by the expe-
rience. For further particulars apply to

Our popular post mistress took a few ,days
recreation recently,leaving the ofilce in charge
of Mr. and Mrs. Ferdinand Grifiln.
Our voters who are opposed to the consti-
utional amendments are outspoken and not _
afraid to say why they are opposed. First,
on general principlesTlet well enough alone.
Second, Some of the judges have been in
office longer than they are fit for. Third,Leg—
islators elected for one year have as much
right to prolong their terms of office ten years
as one. Fourth, If the biennial session will
save $150,000 expense, make the sessions one
in ten years and save in proportion—all.
Our city is full of excitement on the
“chicken" question, Numerous deaths
have occurred among other broods, and the
cause is generally supposed to bc poison.
Some of the residents on whom suspicion
fell have raved themselves quite hoarse about
it, so that the echoes have reached the distant
woods, frightening the innocent birds who
had sought safety there. We advise all
hands to keep cool until the analysis of the
substance found in the dead chickens’ crops
is made. No doubt in night dreams the per-
petrator of the fiendish act sees the agonies
of the innocent chickens in their death strug-
gles.

CI'I‘Y NEWS.
BY OUR LOCAL REPORTER.
Mr. Ely flaced a piece of Linolean inthe
Post Office, so as to test it, with a view of
putting it in his new building. It seems to
stand the wear pretty well.
Mrs. Millard, of Delhi,.has been visiting
at her father’s on Washington street.
Mr. Wm. H. Benedict has been improv-
ing the sidewalk in front of his residence,on
West Avenue.
State’s Attorney Olmstead has been in
town several times during the week, and
we should judge, is ready for a new trial
if the defense succeed in getting it.
The new hose carriage for the Daubury
Company cainc up by the steamer on Thurs
day night, and it is a boauty. It- was re-
ceived by the Putnam Hose Company, and
taken to their rooms,and kept until the next
day, when it was shipped to Danbury.
' Julius -Craw,has his new house on the
hill nearly completed.
Our oystermen are busy on a new ground
near Southport.
Last week the Warden, Burgesses and
Chief Engineer Skelding of Stamford, were
in our city, to see the wOrking of the Ban-
gor Extension Ladder, with a. view of pur-
chasing one of the same kind. The trial
was made on the City Hotel, and was very
satisfactory to the visitors. The Truck com-
pany exhibited it.
B. H. Rowan is working nights to fill or—
ders. .
John Hines had another narrow escape
with Mr. Woodward’s colt, on Thursday,
at the Fair Grounds. It seems after the
word had been given to the horses which
had entered to go in the 2:28 class, he
started after them, and‘ at the close of the
race came in :contact with the horse Modoc
and both horses were thrown to the ground,
but luckily neither was hurt. This is the
third or fourth accident John has had.
The partitions in the second story of the
new hotel, are being set, and many think
that the appearance of the new hotel when
completed, will - be very squatty with only
one more story added to it.
Charles Bell will leave our city for the
west, this week. He intends .to locatcin
Omaha. Charley has many friends in this
city, who will regret to hear of-his depart-
ure, but will at the same time wish him
well wherever he may go. May success go
with him.
If our council will accommodate a few
gentlemen who reside on the hill by putting
in a sewer, why do they not consider the
convenience and desire , of thousands and
thousands who have occasion to use our
Main street, by ordering a sidewalk laid
from the corner of Marshall street to the
Borough line. If a. sewer was needed on
,Clay and West streets, (where in some cases
there is not :1. houses for ‘a thOusand feet) we
are sure a sidewalk is needed on our main
thoroughfare. There are but very few on
this street, where this sidewalk is needed
but can well afford to pay for it, and it
should be attended to. Our present council
have used excellent, judgment in most mat—
ters brought before them, and they are men
of good practical judgment, and we hope
they will seethe need of this improvmcnt be-
fore the winter sets in.

vices commenced with singing by the choir.
WhIChfwas composedfdfcighteen voices, and
was from the three churches. Messrs.
Hatch and Disbrow presided at the organ
during the evening. After the opening
hymn, Rev. James V. Saunders read part
of the 7th Chapter 05 the 19th Psalm, after
which he announced that owing to the death
of the President of the Society, Rev. Den-
nis Platt, brother Burr Nash, the Vice-Pres-
ident would conduct _thc scrviccs'during
t'lc cvcu'ng. Mr. Nish took the chairs, and
aft :r a few remarks called for the reading
of the minutes of the previous meeting.
Mr. Dickcrman not bting present. Mr. Chas“
Seymour the tgeasuremead the minutes, and
also the repor of the treasurer, which show -
elaslnull resolve. Rcv. H. N. Dunning
at his time presented resolutions in regard
ti the death of the president Mr. Dennis
Platt,'which were adopted. Mr; Dicker-man
the secretary, not being present, on motion
of Mr. Dunning, Charles Seymour was elect-
ed pro—fem. The chair called for the report
of the nominating committee, and the Rev.
James M. Taylor being chairman of that
committee, presented the following names
asoflicers for the ensuing year: President,
Edward Beard; Vice—Presidents,Burr Nash,
A Thompson and John Smith; Secretary,
Nelson Dickcrman; Treasurer, Charles Sey
mour; they were elected. The choir sang
“Nearer my God to Thee,” after which Rev.
Mr. Gilbert, Secretary, of the Connecticut
Bible Society, made a very able and plain
statement of the workings, and conditions
of the Bible work in this State, and called
on the church, and public to help, along the
work, and at the same time showing neces-
sity of everyone interesting themselves in the
work. Rev. Mr. Dunning folloWed Mr.
Gilbert in a few remarks urging the neces-
sity of all taking hold of the work. Rev.
James M. Taylor followed with some tell—
ing remarks, in which he pointed out the
duty Of every christian, claiming it was their
duty as well as the clergy to do missionary
work. Mr. Saunders added also his will-
ingness to help along the cause. Mr. Gil—
bert introduced Mr. Gage the young mis-
sionary who is to visit every home in our
community, distributing and selling bibles,
and getting statistics of the religious con-
ditions of this community. It is expected
that the society will accomplish a considera-
ble work next year.
Last week before the election add no cau-
causes called yet. It is expected that it
will be lively in the caucuses for council—
mcn. In the republican party the young
men are coming to the front and propose to
do most of the nominating this year. We
hear of quite a number of new candidates
named, LCharlcs Hallock, James Brown,
John Ferris, Thomas I.Raymond and a num-
ber of others. We think there is fun ahead.
Mr. Ely will probably be nominated _for
mayor. The democratic candidates for
mayor, are not very numerous. Mr. .Swartz
is considered to be the man by many, and H.
R. Fitch by others, either one would make a
good mayor. The candidates for council—
en are very numerous. Nelson J. Crew,
G. C. Stillson, James Lane, E. R. Harvey
A. Ocrlich, Charles Smith, and a number of
the others are spoken off, but nothing but
the caucus will decide it.

’ Fitch’s Home for Orphans.
The community of Norotou and its vi-
cinity have during the last few days, re-
ceived a double illustration of benevo«
lent and charitable disposition 0
Benjamin Fitch. The memorial chapel
erected by that gentleman, was for causes
unnecessary to examine at this present time,
in need of repairs. The architect upon mak-
ing an inspection, observed that the church
itself, was in a condition which demanded
immediate attention, as the agency of the
weather had rendered the steeple unsafe,
and as a. necessary consequence, the building
set _of bells which Mr. Fitch had previously
donated to the Parish, was placed in jeopar-
dy. Prompted by his good feeling, unso-
licited, he has made the necessary repairs
the church edifice so much needed. The
renovated structure presents a more com—
manding appearance than even when first
erected. -
The principle building in connection with
Fitch’s Home for Orphans, was lately vis-
ited by Mr. Fitch, and was found to be
rapidly going to destruction. It is not pert-
inent to enquire into causes, but the fact
was self-cvidcnt,——In this instance also, the
benevolence of Mr. Fitch was again “illus-
trated", nine or ten workmen are now on-
gngcd under a competent superior to per-
form the necessary repairs, and from what
has already been achieved, the prediction
‘ may with safety be hazardcd that the build—
ing will present an appearance equal to any
structure of its magnitude in the State.
From these manifestation; of energy and
goodness, it will be ackuovledged, that the
infirmilies of age have not made a very
powerful invasion upon the constitution of
Mr. , Fitch, notwithstanding a good natured
allusion to this subject in a former number
of the GAZETTE. It may therefore be con-
fidentally anticipated That his bodily and
mental powers will be preserved to witness
the completion of his charitable designs.

HAVING met with astonishing success in tle‘
treatment of all forms of Chronic Diseases,
Dr. Cooke willeontinuc to devote himself entirely
to chronic cases. .Bcing convinced from experi-
ence that no Physician can properly treat chronic
cases of disease whose attention is also taken up
with acute cases of diseases. There is no time
during the rounds of the family doctor to give
thutzattention to his chronic patients that the in-
tricate nature of the ailment calls for. A Doctor
who is called to perhaps fifty cases a do of acute
diseases, and who can bnrcly stay wit any one
patient more than ten minutes at each visit. and
then‘ the physician must make a hurried, and in
many cases an incorrect diagnosis of the case,
nott om want of ability but from want of proper
timezto devote to each. particular case. How fu-
tilc then for any family physician to attempt to
treat chronic complaints, which require great
study, perseverance. and plenty of time to apply
the necessary remedies, and only rare medicine:
on o‘fany avail in chronic diseases. How many
millions are therein the world who suffer chronic
pains from Rheumatism, Neurnlgla, and kindred
com )laints. who are pronounced incurable by the

Morris & Ireland’s
Celebrated. Safes,
In purchasing a. Safe, we wish to call your
attention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all others, and which
make them the cheapest and best Safes now
made.
1st. Our -“PATEN'I‘ Ixsrnn BOLT WORK"
consists in placing the bolts and locks on the
inside of the door (as shown in the out above)
where they are at all times accessible, and
can be cleaned and. kept in order, and. thus
prevent them from unexpectedly locking you
out. In all other Safes the bolts are placed
next the outside plate of iron, being covered
completely by the filling, - consequently im-
possible to oil or clean them without digging
out the filling, which is expensive, besides
losing the use of the Safe several days. As
the filling in our Safes is between the locks
and. bolts and the outside plate of the door,
in most cases we can unlock our safes on the
combination after they have passed through a
severe fire, which DVES breaking them Open.
2d. Our “PATENT HINGE!) CAP" consists
of the back plate of the doci- being hung on
hinges, and fastened by a. tl1umb-screw,which
enables one to have access to the locks and
bolts by simply removing the thumb-screw.
3d. While other safe-makers use three
wheel locks on their fire-proof safes (reserv-
ing the best four—wheel locks for bank safes),
we put on our FOUR—WHEEL Locxs on all
safes, from the smallest to the largest, and for
simplicity and durability cannot; be excelled.
4th. All our Safes are IRON-LINED INSIDE,
instead of wood-lined as in other safes, which
enables us to use the the greatest amount of
'water in our filling without danger of the
Safe’s being damp. All corners of tho Safes
are secured with angle iron, which, together
with the very hard nature of our filling, pre-
vents them from injury from falling, or fall—
ing walls or timbers.
FLANGES instead of single or double as in
others, and are made with and without inside
doors. In the great Boston fire our Safes Bad
the champion reeogd, as was fully proved at
the time, to these important improvements
do we owe our success and the great popular-
ity our safes have attained throughout the
country. After that great fire we published
a complete list of our Safes exposed,those that
failedto preserve their contents, besides those
that were successful, and for months chal—
lenged our competitors to follow our example
which they would not do, as they knew that
by so doing they would only assist usin dem-
onstrating to the world the superiority of our
Safes, and our claim to the champion record.
Although that Great Fire so conclusively
proved the superiority of our Safes to resist
intense heat, we believed that we could im-
prove them, and we have, therefore, since
that time, increased the thickness of the walls,
added. to the number of flanges, and strength-
ened them in various ways, until we now
manufacture a. Safe better than ever before,
and unequalled forits excellence. It has been
our constant aim to make the BEST SAFE'that'
can be produced, believing that, especially in
purchasing a safe to keep that which may
have cost a lifetime to accumulate, the best is
decidedly the cheapest. III these dull times
it is the custom of many safe—makers-to man-
ufacture several grades of cheap safes, and
recommend that which can be sold the cheap-
est, without regard to quality, and many
safes are now in use that are painted finely
outside, but are worthless to preserve their
contents from fire. We make but one class
of Safes, which is the best we know how to
produce. Send for descriptive catalogue.

Since giving up the stuff.
At any rate I’m sure your mouth
Must be more clean and sweet,
And all about your person, too,
Is certainly more neat.
Then when you had that Old clay pipe,
Held fast betWeen your teeth,
And everything within the room
Eucirclcd in a. wreath
0f smoke, how could you thus secure
One moment’s happiness; '
How could you the foul air endure?
Friend Fuller, answer this.
I’m sure your wife and dauglitc too,
Will now with me unite,
And say your health is better fa .
Since giving up the pipe. '
And may you as each year shall clo .,.N
And bring around this (lay, '
Be able then as now to say,
“Still from Tobacco free.”
.\
And as the years shall glide along,
May each a blessing bring,
To you and yours till round His throne
The angels’ song you sing.

But all be gathered there,
Close folded in the Snviour’s arms,
Secure from every sn .

REPLY OF G. L. FULLER TO MRS. G. NASH.
Yes, Sister Nash, ’tis just one year
Since tobacco was an idol here,
With smoke in every room ;
But through God‘s grace I’m free as air,
Which freedom all who smoke may share,
May share life’s healthful bloom.

My head, dear sister, is more clear;
This I can say without a fear
0f violating truth.
Since I have given up the weed,
. And from its bondage have been frecd,
I have renewed my youth.
In person I am very sure
I’m neatcr, and my breath more pure, ,
Than when with smoke ’twas blue;
I feel myself more like a man
Now that I’m free and know I can
Live, and neither smoke nor chew.
From eighteen hundred thirty-four,
To eighteen seventy eight or more,
To the pipeI Was a slave.
But last September, seventy—eight, '
I prayed, Lord help, —’,twas not too late,
He heard, he came, he saved.
The Lord be praised, that very day,
Desire to smoke was taken away,
I found a perfect cure.
Though since more than a year has past,
With perfect case I’m holding fast,
For help divine is sure.
And now my sister, neighbor,.fricnd,
Pray God to keep me to the end,
From tobacco free.
That when our days are numbered both,
We may with all we count most dear,
Christ in his glory sec.

An Electric Railway.
Tun LATEST use TO WHICH ELECTRICITY HAS
BEEN PUT.
Many attempts have been made to apply
the motive power obtained from electricity
to the working Of locomotives, but no sat—
isfactory result was obtained. However, a
step forward has been madejn this direc—
tion in Berlin with apparent success. There
are two lines of rails laid down, which, as
in a. narrow guagc line, return into them-
selves ina ring shaped curve. The length
is about 800 meters. In the'middle is an
isolated third line, consisting of an upright
continuous iron plate. The locomotive car—
ries two rollers, with which it stands _in
connection with the isolated middle line.
The essential portion of the locomotive is
formed by an clectro-dynamical machine,
one pole of which is connected with the mid-
dlc line, and the other with the pair of outer
rails, through the outer wheels. Similarly
the machines which produces the current
connection through the one pole with the
middle line and through the outer pole with
the outer pair of rails. When, therefore,
the dynamical machine in the locomotive is
on the railway, the electric current produced
In the machine soon was through it to ro-
tate and to impart its rotatory motion to the
wheels of the locomotive, and the latter cou—
tinues to move until the current is inter—
rupted. Even an imperfect state Ofisola—
tion on the part of the rails does not mater-
ially affect the no 'on of the machine.
When the locomotive is moving, its con—
ductors arc the damp earth. If the cur-
rent is interrupted, thc damp ground is not
a sufficient conductor to keep the dynamo-
electrical action going. The magnetism of
the machines produced the current conse-
quently disappears, and the result is that
the subordinate stream through the earth is
also interrupted. A great advantage is pos—-
scsscd by the transmission of electric force
from the fact that the locomotive, whether
moving slowly or quickly, always works up
to its full power—an eflfeet which has hith-
erto been an unsolved problem in mechanics.
When the machine that gives the power has
to do much work, and so goes slowly, the
counter-currents it produ ccs are also cor-
, rcspondingly weak, and the current through
the conductOrs thereby undergoing increase
in strength to a similar extent. By this
means the electro-mngnetism, and, corres-
ponding to this, the attractive power of the
machine are increased.The dynamo-electric lo
comotive has the further aid that it carries in
itself the power which can be employed as
a brake, inasmuch as it becomes itself the
primary or current producing machine when
it rotate, more rapidly than the actual
machine. In judging of the performances
of the electric locomotive in the Berlin Ex-
hibition, it must be remembered that it. was
not constructed for the purpose to which it
has been applied—that 'is, to propel the
three elegant little passenger carriages which
are attached to it. Each carriage holds
from eighteen to twenty persons, and all
three are drawn in from one to two minutes
round the circular railway of 300 metres in
length. The locomotive was originally
made for the purpose of drawing up coals
out Of the pit. Nevertheless, its perform—
ances are very remarkable, and render it cer-
tain that there are many cases in which
electric locomotives may be employed with
advantage. The question of the extent to
which electro-dynamic locomotives may
possibly be employed is as yet difficult to
decide. Apart from the question of the pos.
sibility of a suflicient isolation, it depends
‘ on the conductive resistencc of the rails.
According to Dr. Slemen’s view, this requis—
itc on long railways may be partly satisfied
by setting up from time to time new pri~
mary dynamo-electrtc machines,which would
maintain the necessary electric tension be—

A young man that “works for his board"
no matter what honest work he docs,hns
no reason for shame. A young man who
eats the bread of idleness, no matter how
much money he has, is disgraced. All young
men starting in life ought to aim, first at all
to find a place where they can earn their
bread and butter, with hoe, axe, spade,
wheel barrow, curry-comb, blocking-brush,
—no matter how. Independence first. The
.bread and butter question settled, let the
young man perform his duty so faithfully
as to attract, and :let him constantly keep
his eyes open for a chance to do better.
About half of the poor, proud young men,
and two thirds of the poor discouraged
young men, are always out of work. The
