The Records of this School District in pos-
session of the District Clerk, only date back
to the 13th of October, 1850. Any person

past week here. The 5th was the fifth anni—
versary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. D.
N. Mather, and a few went to surprise and
congratulate them, taking with them the in—
evitable wooden ware. The following Thurs-
day preparations were made and invitations
given to make up a large surprise to Mr. and
Mrs. Thad. Johnson, but most of those in-
tending to go learned in time that there were
reasons why their presence would not be
agreeable to Mr. J. and so staid at home.

The roads about town are said by every
body to be in better condition this , spring
than they have been at this early date in
many previous years. This shows the wis-
dom of making road repairs in summer in-
stead of waiting till fall as some of our sur-
veyors have been in the habit of doing. It is
true however that this year there was less
frost in the ground to thaw and make mud
than formerly, but the argument in favor of
summer working is notwithstanding strength-

WEST STRATFORD. ~
At a regular meeting of the Court of Bur-
gesses, on Wednesday evening last, the Bor-
ough surveyor’s report in regard to aside-
walk on Adams street, was referred to street
committee. A map and profile was shown
by Mr. Fray, chairman of the sewer commit-
tee, showing a complete system of drainage
for the northern portion of the Borough; it
was referred to the proper committee.
A few days ago we noticed a call which
was posted in a conspicuous locality, said
call was for a Democratic town caucus, to
appoint delegates to the State convention.
We ,hope Connecticut will not be backward’
in hearing her part of the burden in the func-
ral obscquies of the Democracy in Novem—
ber next. _
Well, that mosquito arrived, but did not
stay. long—he was a trifle too premature.
Stratford people have not got fat enough for
him yet. Perhaps he will now try Bridge-
port, as there is more fire water there, the
_air.rnore bracing, why, during the past week
.we have seen more in that city, standing
against fences and lamp-posts—bracing them
up, §It was all owing to the air being so
bracing about election time. It could not
have? been from other causes, for no liquor
is sold in that city on days when the law
says it shall act be—unless one goes in by
way of the back door.
_ The result of the Bridgeport election must
have been a surprise, to our Irish friends.
Daniel N. Morgan the democratic candidate
for Mayor, was elected by a majority of
nearly 400. Bernard Keatingfidem, for City
Clerk, by a much smaller one. fiWithout
'the‘ aid of republican votes he could not
base been elected. Mr. Keating is an Irish-
man. Charles Wilmot rep., 'was elected
Town Clerk by 380 majority, his demo-
cratic antagonist, Mr. Shannon, is an Irish-
man. B. K. Mills for City and Town Col—
lector was elected by something over 200
majority, Mr. Casey the democratic candi-
date is an Irishman. Just so all the way
through; the democrats used their Irish
allies to pull the chestnuts out of the firc,and
then did not even give them the husks.
There seemed to be among the democratsan
organized opposition to their 'Irish candi-
dates. Take for instance the vote for city
Sherrifis, Mr. T. W. Stone, who is an Amer-
icrn, polled a vote of over 1800 and was
elected, P. J. Leonard who is an Irishman
polled a vote of but little over 1500 and was‘
defeated. Irishmen 1 the democracy of the
present date don’t care for you, they want
your votes to help them into power, and
then you may go to -- Well we will not say
it, you can guess it out. W.

wards a lady whose corsdge was particularly

ity to excuse their style of dreams”.
BRIDGEPORT.
Election day came and went. To the eye
of sense everything. wasquiet and serene.
Faith saw beneath the surface considerable
wire-pulling, some of it desperate. The re-
sults may properly be called mixed. The,
largest prize of all was drawn by a'Deinocrat.
Mr. D. N. Morgan,now our respected Mayor,
was recently a member of the firm of Bird-
sey & Morgan, dealers in dry goods, carpets,
ready made clothing (for ladies), etc. etc.,
with a “five cent table" attached, He was
popular as salseman with the powers that be.
viz. our wives and daughters, and that ac—
counts, no doubt, for his success on election
day. .
Several of the prizes that are not so .glit-
tering at first sight, but which are really of
more worth, fell out to our Republican
friends. Mr. Wilmot retains his position as
Town Clerk, while the collector of town and-
city taxes, a majority of the 'assessors, five
of the seven constables, and various other
officials are of the same political stripe. The
story of Judas must bejamiliarto the people
of this region and yet a Democrat is again
entrusted with the bag lv-But then Mr. Nich-.
ols is a very likely man. It is not strange
that so many have been willing to confide the
town’s spare change to his keeping.-
The Scientific Society dedicated its reno-
vated and'now beautiful rooms on Wednes—
day evening last. A fine lecture by M. Wil-
bur, Esq., was brilliantly illustrated by the
stereopticon. Subject, “From Paris to Pom-
pei.” This organization keeps things stir-
ring so far as its department is concerned.
It discusses all things on the earth and in the
waters under the earth,and occasionally turns
its attention to the things above. We speak
a‘stronomically rather than theologically, It‘
has already gathered a large collection of
curiosities, from the gauzy-winged butterfly
to the skull of a murdered fellow citizen.
Admission to the museum free. Children
unaccompanied by their parents will be
charged double price.
The sensation of the week with us, has
been “Belahazzsr.” This orntorio, a very
fine afiair, has been rendered for the benefit
of the Ladies’ Charitable Society. All
the local talent that could be secured has
been employed. A chorus of more than one
hundred voices produced a splendid effect.
Many of the scenes were striking. The
hand-writing upon the wall Was naturally
appalling. The entire performance was ex-
ceedingly satisfactory. It may be of interest
to the people of Norwalk to know that Bel-
shazzar’s queen is a native of their town.
there was a hearty response as a lady of the
court sang: .
"A toast to our beautiful queen,
Lift every goblet high; -
Antonia, brilliant and fair
Charms and attracts every 'eye."
Mrs. Belshazzar has been known among us
as Mrs. Clarence Swan; with you as Miss
Byxbee. The oratorio was rendered upon
three successive evenings and repeated at a
matinee on Saturday afternoon.
A large amount of building is noticabla in
town. In the eastern section of the city the
streets are alive with carts removing by
piecemeal a small mountain and casting it
into the harbor. A highway thus springs up
where the waves and fishes have had it all to
themselves.
Here and there we notice a man in glove:
preparing his garden for its summer work,
or a woman closely wrapped in a woolen
shawl looking after her flower roots. This
chilly weather seems to have a depressing
effect upon the gardening interest. . ’
Gsvronn.
The Danbury News has a good word .for
the Adelphi’s steward, as follows:
“We can cordially recommend the restau-
rant of Mr. Ackert on the Adelphi. We
found that .by taking dinner there it made, an
hour’s difference with us while in the city,
and it was every whit as good as could be had
anywhere—well—cooked and well-served."

The following is the text of the new liquor
law, which has been signed by the Governor:
“Be it enacted. &c., That the term intoxica—
ting liquors as used in the statute laws of the
State shall include any spirituous and intoxi-
eating liquor, any mixed liquor of which a
part is spirituous and intoxicating, all wines,
porter, and any beer manufactured from hops
and malt or from hops and barley, or any
beer on the receptacle containing which a
revenue stamp is required by the laws of the
United States to be affixed, arm which’such
