' WEST NORWALK.
A very pleasant and profitable service
conducted by the Rev. Mr. Taylor of South
Norwalk, was helddn Union Chapel on Sun-
day afternoon. » . .
On Thursday, during the high wind, 8
small bonfire was made to ‘consume a few
dry, leaves. The flames soon spread, igniting
.the dry material on the opposite side of the
stone fence. The prospect of the fire
reaching the woods became alarming,bnt
after a hard fought battle by members of the
, city fire department, who very PPPOTWWIY
were near, it was subdued.
Our councilman are not well pleased that
their acts and deliberations cannot be record-
ed in' a public journal. If it continues; an
erort may be made to establish a young
journal in this place. .
John H. Knapp, of the city, paid a flying J
visit to this neighborhood, a few days since.
DARIEN. -
There has been a great amount of merri—
ment over Mr. Bradford’s fortunate escape
from a great calamity becauseof the fright
of his horse. Mr. B. says it would show a
deficiency in his education if hepould not
manage so small an animal. Anything to
kill monotony.
The Rev. Mr. Arrighi has taken Mr. J. OB.
Mathers heuse. Mr. A. is sent over to
America to' represent and to solicit aid and
sympathy in behalf of the Free Church of
Italy. -He spoke both morning and evening
in the Congregational church to large and
attentive audiences. He presented his cause
in the evening. He is an eloquent preacher,
a fluent speaker, carrying his audiences
into full sympathy with his subject. The
religious move he represents is doing a noble
work, and secures 'the cooperation of the
large churches in the great cities. We hope
the‘ people of Norwalk may soonhear- Mr.
Arrighj. ‘
Mr. B. again deferred his long promised
sermon to the young, till next Sunday
evening. It was to have been given in the
winter, but was crowded out because of the
special religious interest in the church. The
subject is: The claims of Society upon the
Youth. May there be a full ,house next
Sunday evening.
, Since taking possession of his new house
Mr. Foot has greatly improved the appear—
ance of his yard. The people feel that Mr.
F. and family are most valuable acquisitions
to Darien. .
Theie are a number of youngsters, who
often congregate on the bridge near Mr.
Charles Bowers, evenings. They talk loud,
smoke, sometimes swear and often speak in
an insulting way to women and girls who
are compelled to‘ pass that way. May they
see the baseness of their conduct and cease. g
The annual meeting of the Woman’s
Missionary Society, will be held at the Con—
gregational church next Wednesday at 2%
p. m. Miss Abbie Child of Boston, Miss
Dr. Ogden late of India, with other returned
missionaries, are to be in attendahce. The
meeting promises to be one of unusual
interest. All ladies are invited, and may the
‘house be full.
WILTON.
There will be a special town meeting on
Wednesday afternoon, for the purpose of
settling the road question As the matter
' now stands, part of the highways have been
contracted for, and part not, and the tax of
ten mills which was laid at the annual meet-
iugwas ligihe last special meeting divided
up, eight mills for general purposes and two
mills for highway purposes. It will be seen
that as matters now stand, it would need
the combined efforts of a Philadelphia law-
yer and a life insurance book-keeper to
straighten matters out. Evidently the best
way would be to confirm the action of the
annual' meeting; and obviate all difficulties
about taxes.
The Rev. Bishop Williams visited St.
Matthew's church, on Saturday last, and ad-
ministered the rite of confirmation.
By the death of Mr. Samuel Comstock,
who died suddenly on Saturday last, Wilton
has lost one of her honored and upright
citizens, whose life was rather one of exam-
ple than of precept. Mr. Comstock had
been ill for some time past, but had recov—
ed sufileiently to ride out, but on Saturday
last, after he returned home he was taken
ill and died within afew hours. The funeral
will be attended at his late residence on this
(Tuesday) afternoon at 2 o’clock. ‘
Owing to a misunderstanding the circus
train was delayed at Wilton station about
two hours on Sunday night, and people saw
just enough to stimulate their curiosity, and
so quite a number visited Danbury the next
day. WIL TONN.

The funeral of Miss Caroline Gorbam, of
ford, Conn'., May 8th, in the 45th year of her
May 12th, from the Congregational church,
Westport, at 3 o’cloek. There was a time
when.Carrie Gorham, as she was familiarly
called,was a bright star in social circles here,
and no gathering of young people was consid-
ered complete without her smiling presence.
Reading these lines, those who know how
truthful they are will recall the evidences
of rare amiability in their departed friend,
and drop a tear. to her memory.
Through Mr. E. M. Lees, attorney, a ser-
geant‘s pension of $4 per month, was. some
time‘ ago secured to Mr. Harry, McDonough,
of the 17th Connecticut Volunteers. He
having been a Second Lieutenant, and not a
sergant, his case was again presented to the
from July 1805 to Nov. 1878, inclusive, on
the ground of total disability caused by
hemorrhages-indoccd while in governm‘ent
service in Florida, and not on account of in—
juries in the battle of Gettysburg, as at first
claimed, Mr. .McDonough’s pay has been
fixed at $17 per month dating from Novem-
ber, 1878. . The sum total received by him
aggregates-$2,309. ' '

’ The terror caused by the rcport that a cer-
tain Compo street man had threatened to
murder one , ofhis neighbors is neutralized
and madeweak by 'a subsequent report that

his pains what some people call a very large

Edwin Hoyt the Sherman murderer might
be hung May 13, 1880, as per sentence after
two fair trials in 1878, has been appealing to
the sympathies of the tender- hearted in
behalf of the condemned man, the idea
being to show that Hoyt was insane when
he butcheredhis‘ father with a carving knife;
that he has been a lunatic ever since, and
should be treated by the'State as a subject
not ' fit for public execution. Affidavits of
lawyers and members of the jury who sat
on Hoyt, have been forwarded by Mr. Lyon
to the Governor, who has no power what—
ever in the premises. Meantime the authori-
ties in Bridgeport representing the State
have been over to New Haven looking at a
gallows suitable for Hoyt, and it begins to
look as 'if he might expatiate his crime next

The funeral of Mr. E. R. Beers, who died
Monday, May 3d, took place Wednesday
from the M. E. Church, Rev. Mr. Platts ofi‘l-
ciating. Mr. Beers was known to most West
port people as'an active, enterprising man—
one no more likely than his fellows to beso
soon summoned away. - His death was
startlingly sudden, be having been in the
village apparently as well as usual a few
short hours before. The day of his funeral
in Willow Brook was fine, and many took
that occasion to visit a spot destined to be-
come, if itis not' already, the loveliest in
Fairfield County as a cemetery'. In_ this
connection it should be stated that the de-
scription of- Willow Brook, printed in last
week‘s GAZETTE, has been extensively read,
and throngs have every day since visited the
.cemetery, going away convinced of the
truthfulness of the description.
A 3006 tie-blunt; wisely said at the Greens

By chance it‘._may aid in preventing the
practice. Mr. E.‘ C. Birgc, read a paper on
“Wastes on the Farm,” in which he took
occasion to say that “more tools are destroy-
ed by exposure to the weather than are worn
out in use. Lack of attention: to - the corn-
forts of animals. had ventilation or no venti—
lation, inconvenient barns, bad plowing and
of more waste of ‘ time and material than all

lounging around stores and street corners,and
. advised‘young men to improve their time
around their homes instead. At the next
meeting, June lst, Mr. John H. Hull will
treat on the subject of “Weed Killing and
tools forthe purpose." " g ' ' " .

Barnum’s “only greatest" drew together a
great crowd of people, and all seemed satis-
fied with the show. Everything looked fresh
and neat, and everything was performed as
advertised, which is more than can be said of
most organizations of the kind. “Well,”
they say, “Barnum is a humbug," but one
thing is evident, he always humbugs the peo-
ple their money’s worth.
The upsetting of a buggy occupied by two
young men from Bridgeport, caused quite a
stir last Sunday. The place where the acci-

of the young men, no injury was done. “A

that our Borough fathers will take heed from
the numerous complaints made in regard to

There is serious meaning in this expression.
That weary step, languid eye and feeling of
general lassitude, come from “spring sick—
ness.” Be assured,a serious and perhaps fatal
disease is close in its wake- The system
wants cleansing of winter impurities; the
