her. She went down at about midnight of
Jan. 13th, 1840, in ten fathoms of water ofi
what was then known as Old Field Light on
Long Island, and nearly opposite the Strst-
fo'rd Light-ship. The exact locality of the
wreck—the charnal house of 122 persons is

In addressing the Greens‘ Farms Farmers
Club Monday, evening of last week, on the
subject of “Roast Beef and Plum Pudding,
or the Scicnde of Living and EnjoyingLife,”
Rev. B. J. Relyea spoke of the way to make
life productive of most enjoyment, and' inci -
dentally of a well spread table as bearing on
the subject. He showed not, following his
exact language, that enjoyment, like honor
and fame, “from no conditions rise.” In
other words, it does not follow that elegant
and costly surroundings such as characterize
the banquets of things, will be pr6ductive of
'pleasure,-nor does it follow that the poor
man’s enjoyment is to be measured by the
plainncss of his fare. He treated his subject
elaborately and at length, concludingoas
follows: 'Every affliction has its alleviations
and every condition of life some sources of
enjoyment. Our happiness or unhappiness
depends upon our dwelling upon the bright
or dark side. of things. Without cheerful-
ness even roast‘beef and plum pudding
' cannot make a person happy, but he that is
of a merry heart hath a continual feast. No
person can make life productive of enjoy-
ment who seeks it ,as the chief end of life.
The highest enjoyment comes unsought
from living to some higher , purpose. He
that seeketh his happiness shall lose it, but
but he that loseth his happiness for the sake
of some noble end shall find it. At the con-
clusion" a vote of thanks was given the
speaker. Next Monday evening Hon. T. S.
Gold will address the club. ' .

prices of the Amerjcsn Bible Society. The-
district will be supplied .gratutiously if nec-

bronze fountain, to be located in Sea Side
Park, on condition that the Water Company
shall supply it with water without charge
forever. Mr. Barnum is a man such as it is
very convenient to have about. He may
elsewhere be regarded as an embodiment of
humbug, but there is no humbug about his
efforts for the upbuilding and beautifying of
'this city. This splendid fountain is only one
of the many m'onuments here erected in proof
of his love for Bridgeport.

decorated, it is the great Charm and attraction
of all this vicinity, Especially in the sum—
mer evenings,when the bands there discourse
their melody, and thousands of our people
are present to enjoy the many delights of the

those that this town originally possessed.

On Saturday last yellow flags were floating
at the banks, from the horse cars, and pretty
much everywhere else. A stranger might
have thought they indicated a scourge of
yellow fever. Instead of that they were re—
mindcr's of the need and plea for help of the
Bridgeport Hospital Association. On Sun—
day, collections for the same object were
taken in many of the churches. It is be-
lieved that the sum total contributed in this
city, to say nothing of the rest of the Coun-
ty, will be large. Scarcely any other object
could appeal more powerfully to the humane
and the. Christian. The Hospital itself is

each steamer of course declare the proprie—
tors of’ the other to be wholly to blame for
the accident,which fortunately did not occur.

But those on board the boats were consider-

The rivalry of a pair 'of steambosts, each
continually striving to prove itself the faster

the community to favor. With all the. zeal
and the steam expended during the past

to make the journey between here and New
York in quicker time than the other, no
accident has yet o‘ccurred. Of course they

Mr. D. D. Henderson: the veteran Edito

for the statement that the name Republican
was givel'l to the party organized in 1854
to oppose the extension of slavery, by.
Horace Greeley. .The Hon JacobM. How-
ard, one of the earliest movers in the work
of forming the party in Michigan, wrote to
Mr. Greeley asking his advice as to a name.
Mr. Greeley consulted with his associate
editors, among whom at the timc was Mr,
Henderson, and lied to Mr. Howard rec:
ommending the . e Republican. The sug-'
gestion was accepted, and the designation
adopted in Michigan was speedily taken up
in other States, and by 1856 had come to be
universally recognized throughout the North.
It was highly appropriate that the man who
did more than anybody else to spread the
ideas upon which the Republican party was
founded should have named an organization
in its infancy. .

The Pleasure of Losl'ng'.
Isaac H. Bromley, in a recent article on
the delights of unsucessful speculation,
thus aptly tells a story which will be heartl»
ly appreciated by those who have experienc-
ed the inconveniences of the old depot, now
used as a city market:
“I remember going into the depot at New
Harlem: riumber of years ago—the old dc.
pot, where the trains ran in underground,
and the refreshment room was up stairs—
just as the express train arrived from Bos-
ton, and the passengers had hurried up to
gorge themselves in the ‘ten minutes al—
lowed.’ As I got opposite the door of the
refreshment room a bell on a wandering lo-
comotive down stairs was-rung. An elderly
pilgrim, in a camlct cloak and Stovepipe but,
who had just got two oranges in one hand
and a quarter section of squash pie in the
other, evidently mistook the‘ bell for the
signal of his train’s departure, and came
flying :out as if he had been fired out of a
gun. Ten feet from the door he struck a
post? His oranges dropped and rolled away.
His but fell off, and. as he made a dash to
hold his cloak on, he fired the pie,ahope-
Then he
pulled himself together, secured.his cloak,
chased his hat, gathered up his oranges and
looked for his pic. He considered it a sure
as well as a soft, thing. He was the picture
of misery till his eyes fell on the wreck of it,_
and then he brightened up; a smile like that
of Dorc’s Wandering Jew taking off his
boots at the sound of the last trump, spread
over his face.
lieVed‘; that he had got the pie 'off his mind.
The pic, at least, was secure. He didn't lose
the train, nor his oranges, nor his cloak, her
his hat. It seemed to me he would have been
happier if he had lost them all: it would
have been just 60 much responsibility thrown
off, and then he could have sat down and
got rested, and taken a fresh start in life. I
often think of that pilgrim when I see a.
fellow who thinks he has ‘got a soft thi ng.
First thing he knows he runs into a post,
and while he is clawing around to save his
cloak or his oranges the ‘sure thing has
gone to pieces like the squash piein the cor-
ner. Then, if he is a philosopher, he smiles
at the thought that so much, at least, is off

tually to cure worse cases than yours,” the
weary answer was: "It’s no use, but I’ll try
it to please you. Here‘srthe dollar. Go and
get a bottle." It was done and in a few weeks
there was a new man in that town. In his
gratitude he declared: “When I am in Rond-

A Fragrant; Breath and Pearly
, ' Teeth '
Are easily obtained by cleansing your teeth
daily with that justly popular dentrifice,
SOZODON’T. Composed of rare antiseptic
herbs, it imparts whiteness to the teeth,a
delicious aroma to the breath. and preserves
intact, from youth and old a e, the teeth.
Acidity of the agomach wil destroy the
strongest teeth unless its effects are counter-
acted with SOZODONT, and this pure tooth .2,
wash protects the dental surfaces by remov-
ing every impurity that adheres to them.

To the Public .'
Ilnylng been a long resident ofNorwalk I have
seen ltgrowfrom a small Country pltice to one
ofthc prettiest and plcasantest Towns on the
New Enlgand coast and have often called inabout
every store in the village, but never was in a
store where_more courtesy was shown, and goods
'dlsplaycll w1:h more apparent pleasure, than inn
small store recently opened on Main street.
Their handsomely trimmed window first attract
ed my attention, the equal of which I had never
seen in town belore, and I thought then all other
houses on Mum and Wall streets would exert
themselvesin a similar way, how much more at-
tractive to strangers the business portion or our
town would be. at the same time improve the a -
earance of both streets and stores and no don t
psrnessalso. I had not admired the above men-
tioned wrndow but ashort time when I was po-
lltely‘lnvltqd inside, and havin an hour to spare
I accepted and was soon being 3 own, by one of
the young proprretorssomc of their MANY BAIL,
GAINS, a few ofwhich I must mention for the
benefit of those who have never (if there are any
such) won the young but go-a-head firm a call.
Firstlfwas shown .a pair of BUCK GLOVES
for t e small sum of 125 cents. Next MEN’S
UNDERSHIB’I‘S and DRAWERS for the same
price and the balance of their stock of UN DER-
VEAR, to the very best. was proportionally
cheap. Their MERINO x HOSE for 12% cents,
were trul a BARGAIN , and their UNBLEACH-
ED and OOLEN HOSE for 25 cents were the
best I ever saw offered in town. Their stock of
SILK HAN DKEBCHIEFS and NECKWEAR dis-
played good taste throughout and more than the
worth of your money ln price. I am not much of
a judge 0 latest styles but from the assortment
shovvn of COLLA RS and CUFFS. I should jud e
they had them ALL from fifty years 3gp :to t e
present hour. The ARGOSY BRAC ‘, which
they are agents for, is the most comfortable Sus-
pender I ever had on,having purchased a pair on
their recommendation. The "EIGHMIE SHIRT”
I have worn for some time. and, like everyone
else who has worn them once will not have ‘any
other make and a 813.5 LAUNDRIED they are
VERY CHEAP. Thelr .UNLAUNDRIED shirts
for 50 and 75 cents and their LAUNDRIED for 65
cents are bargains not to be overlooked by any in
need of'GOQD SHIRTS for a little money. Time
and space will not allow of my describing HALF
their argums and different articles in the way
of USEFUL PRESENTS for the HOLIDAYS, but
suffice it to say that besides the above mentioned
their stock of Umbcrcllas, Canes. Cardigan Jack-
ets, Sean’s, Wnstlets. Gloves, Suspenders, Combs,
Brushes, Blacking Brushes. in fact everything
pertaining to a Gentlemen’s Toilet was displa éd
Wlth pleasure and at prices within reach of A L.
Thler stock of HATS and CAPS, which was most
complete in both,|comprlsi.ng all the best makes.
was equally aslreasonable 111 price as their other
goods. but their SILK HAT for 94.00 deserves

be carefully selected with a. view to iving per-
