Norwalk Gazette. Tuesday April 20111, 1880. Fairfield County Items. ROWAYTON.‘ Signs of spring are appearing hereabouts. Farmers are plowing and some seed has been planted. One neighbor has had green peas above ground for over a~weck in a place shel- tered from the North wind, but it has made but- little progress. , Edgar Smith is improving his place eni— ploying Mr. Rile as carpenter. Jared W. Scoficld and his brother-in-laW Oscar Mills, have about completed the paint- ing of the residence and carrial‘.re house Of Mr. Colyer on Contentment Island. making them rich and harmonious in color. There is a pile of new lumber at Mr. Colyer’s COltflge near the R. R, depot which looks like im— provement. The brothers Millspaugh, we believe, are engaged on this job. Wm. Hoyt, the carpenter, has been at woak for sometime on eight cottages at Car- mansvillc, New York city. Mr.Hoyt repOrts that these cottages were all rented as soon as completed. There has been a rush of work thereabouts since the Elevated railroads com- menced running. Mr. Hoyt is also engaged on some work for the new owner of the “Cannon homestead,” near the Union Ceme— try. This property which has so long re— mained unoccupied 'has recently changed hands. The purchaser is Mr. E. G. Selchow an importer and dealer in Toys, games, &c., 41 John Street, New York. He is a gentle-- man of medium years, has a family of six children and in everything that is honorable, upright and enterprising is reported to be a very great acquisition to our neighborhood. Lawyer Barbour, 'of Norwalk, delivered an excellent discourse in the Baptist Church on Sunday evening, taking as his text the “Prodigal Son," which was listened to with respectful attention throughout by an uncom- monly large audience. At its conclusion many favorable criticisms Were heard ex- pressed, and it is to be sincerely hoped that our people may again have the pleasure of listening'to him at anearly day. WEST STRATFORD. When will people learn to handle keresone oil lamps more carefully; this place came near being the scene of a serious conflagra- tion a few evenings since, by the careless handling of one. - Stratford shad have made their appearance in the markets—some of them came from New York. - ' Flat fish are being caught in large num- bers in Stratford harbor; they are unusually large this season. , The advance guard of the mosquito has arrived Malaria fever has made its appearance thus early; how long must West Stratford people suffer in consequence of the foul odors arising from Pembroke Lake; when sewerage is talked of, some non-resident who owns property in the Borough, comes forward, employs a lawyer, and holds up his hands in holy horror at the proposed useless outlay of money, and the matter is dropped. What might be a pure sheet of water is now nothing but a rocking cesspool of filth, breeding and spreading malaria. Well, go ahead gentlemen, you are having your day, the time' is coming, when we possibly may may have ours; there 'is- a State Board of Health. Robert L. Clarkson and Samuel A. Patter- son, are the delegates from this town, to the Democratic State Convention. If we could ever be induced to cast a vote for a democrat (which we do notthink probably) we know of no democrat for whom we had rather vote than Samuel A. Patterson, but like poor dog Tray, he is in bad company. So far as we can ascertain, the feeling of republicans in this vicinity is in favor of any good can— didatc, but there _ is a decided opposition to a third term. A prominent republican said to us not long ago : “I do not think the time has comeiyet to give any man a mort~ gage upon us as a party.” That seems to be the general sentiment. ’ James G. Blaine is our choice, first, last, and all the time, and we believe his nomination would awaken such an enthusiasm as has not been known since the days of the Lincoln campaign in 1860. - Our late articles on Bridgeport politics seems 'to have stirred up the ire of certain parties,—Well, we like fair play, we assert. the truth of all we have written, and could mentionZthe names of some who have been- democrats all their life, who voted the re publican ticket at the last election, simply because they were disgusted with the class of 'men. put in nomination by their own party. The time has not yet come when base ball clubs and gin mills Can rule the city of Bridgeport. W. STAMFORD. Frank Nichols has resigned his position as organist at the Cong. church._ Frank Holmes purchased the Holmes country residence on Shippan Point, at auc- tion; price $9,000. Prof. Woeltze is going to Hartford to take charge of the Park church choir. _ Mr. Bailey’s voice failed him and he was compelled to stop his temperance meetings for the present. . Mrs.‘W. H. Weed, of Springdale, fell and dislocated her shoulder. The same day Mr. Weed’s horse, returning from the doctor’s fell and broke a leg and had to be killed. Edwark Boyear, aged 73, visiting his sis— ter-in-law, was found dead in bed one morning recently. He was formerly a mer- chant in Stamford. , James Welsh was fined $40 for keeping his liquor saloon open on Sunday. Joseph Toeplcr’s 18 months old boy fell into a spring and was drowned.

An effort is being made to engage Helen '- Potter’s “Pleiades” for an early evening in Hater Gallagher walked off an embankment on the new railroad last Tuesday night; he struck on‘ his head and was killed.

The thermometer touched 80 degrees, Wednesday and Thursday, and the trees and all nature felt the infiuenca of heat. and leaves started suddenly forward to begin their summer’s work, and many}: housewife was made happy in the thought that her. spring house work could be pleasantly éx‘ ecuted. To be sure there was a thunder shower Saturday night followed by flakes of snow, and some shudders at imaginary cold winds, but Sunday 'came with clear skies and more warm sunshine, and the prospects are that we shall have plain progress into a “see them 0 .’" 1 aion. new and growing season. At the Democratic Caucus, held Thursday evening, at Sturges Hall, two good men—— Messrs. J. W. Hurlbutt and Patrick Murphy were chosen delegates to the Democratic State ' Convention. From them Uncle “Sammy” will be likely to get a little sup— port. Both gentlemen are, it is‘ to be re— gretted, opposed to republican principles, and will do all in their power to advance the interests and success of the democratic party. Aside from these features in their respective political characters both men have the endorsement of their constituents. It is stated that the right of way for the proposed Parallel Railroad, has been pur— chased of several resident property holders, at prices per acre satisfa ctory to all, and that one citizen has offered to give land near the M. E. Church as a site for the newde- pot. If these reports can be believed there is, after all, something tpngible in this scheme for a railroad. It is further stated, with how much truth the reader ,mlist guess, that the horse railroad folks will extend their tracks to the new depot, and make regular trips between that and the New Haven depot. Many doubters express themselves as anxious to see ground broken before they take much stock in reports as stated. An old fashioned barn raising is a rare occurrence now. Mr. Charles Mills, - of Greens’ Farms, made one last week and nearly a hundred good men reaponded to his invitation to raise his frame, drink his cider and eat his cake and cheese. Many a far- mer‘s boy was on hand to witness a sight familiar to the older ones, and to learn how to do things ship shape. Several old men present were reminded of the scenes 'of their early days. .

Church, on Wednesday and Thursday even-l ings of last week, was decidedly the most pleasant and successful affair of the season, and was noteworthy as being a social as well as a financial success. A delegation of twenty or more from South Norwalk was present Wednesday evening, which tended to show the kindly interest and sympathy manifested by our neighbors in the"efforts that is being put forth here to crush out the liquor traffic, and on the following evening was noticed also a fair sprinkling of people from out of town. The churchaon both nights was comfortably filled, and those who managed the affair seemed to possess just the faculty of making every one feel at home and at perfect ease. The veteran Captain, and everybody’s friend, W. C. Sammis, pre- sided at the door, and in his inimitable way took the admissiOn fee of each in as graceful a manner as a young man, for example, could possibly assume iii lifting his hat to one of the fair sex. The Slipper itself was a feast. worthy of those who had prepared it. The tables were loaded with all thatone’s appetite could ask, and fair hands did the duty of waiters in the most approved style. In this connection special mention should be made of the Misses Fannie Guidcr, Nellie Bell, Emma Dibble, Sadie Ferris. Libbic Tristram and Ella Hoyt. besides others whose names have escaped us. The scale of prices for the supper, ice cream, confectionery, &c., was fixed at a very reasonable rate,,and though we are unable to state the exact amount real- ized, feel warranted in saying that the net proceeds will not fall short of $100. When the projectors of this entertainment again put their heads together to originate a simi— lar one, they may feel assured beforehand that success awaits them. C. R, Fitch’s Home. . It having been 'réported in some of the county papers that some malignant disease was raging at Fitch’s Home,we are requested to state, on the authority of Dr. Chas. E. Rowell, of Stamford, that such is not the case. He says there is but one case of sick— ness at the Home, and that a light attack of malaria. Miss Davis informs us that this case is now apparently cured. Two deaths in our last, from different diseases. .0 The schooner which collided 'with the steamer Adelphi recently, was the Allegheny, of Maine.

Here is a grand opening for the State lawyers in the Hayden case. Mr. Edward‘Beardsley, son of Wm. E. Beardsley, of this place, was in town this last week long enough to say good bye.

May good luck go with them and never desert them. _ We hear inquiries from time to time for Mrs. Benedict, the Norwalk Nurse. It may be of public interest, and tend to clear up the perplexities of such inquiries for the fu- ture, if we state that two ladies of that name, both ”in every respect most admirable nurses, reside in Norwalk. One, Mrs. H. NIBenc— diet, Down Town, the other Mrs. Angeline Benedict, on Camp street, in the Borough. Pioneer Hook & Ladder were out for practice last Tuesday evening; a goodly number handled the ladders right sprightly down at the Over River SchOol House.
