WILTON.
Miss Ella Russell, the secretary of the New
York Flower Mission was ill town last week,
being the guest of Mrs. A. W. Merwin.
The young people about the ‘ccnter, are
enjoying the benefit of a filll course of object
——lessons in the,“tender art."
The young people of Bald'Hill met at the
grove on Wednesday evening and danced by

Mr. Geo. W. Ogden who has been teach-
iugiu New Milford, has completed his en—
gagement and is now at home.
Mr. E, T. Whitney has engaged anew in
the jewelry lmsincss with a New York firm,

line for any of his friends. Mr. W..will con.
tinue to‘reside in Wilton making daily trips
to the city. _ '
The Rev. Mr. Greenleaf of ' New Canaan,
occupied the pulpit, of the Congregational
church on Sunday.
The Wilton branch of the New York
FlowerMission has been quietly pursuing its
work for some time. As many Wilton ladies
are interested in this work, abrief synopsis
of the work of the parent organization would
not be uninteresting. During last year the
Mission received contributions from one
hundred and thirty towns, and distributed
over 150,000 boguets among 108 regular
charitable institutions, besides 30,000 distri-
butions of flowers and fruit among the fac-
tories, tenements, and industrial schools.
We who live among the open fields and see
on every hand the flower—starred meadows
with scarcely any emotion, little know the
value of a simple flower to those detained
on an unwilling bed of sickness or immense
among the stifling walls of the tenement
houses. As flowers cost but little, and cause
such pleasure on part of the recipients we
trust this work and its workers may receive
encouragement. Any one wishing to con—
tribute towards this object may leave their_
flowers on Wednesdays at either the house
of=Mr. Edward Olmstead or the residence of
Capt. Ogden as it may suit the convenience
of the donors.
Farmers apprehend that this protracted
drought will seriously affect the new potato ,

The floral concert held in the M. E.
Church on Sunday evening, June 20th, was
a complete success. The floral display was
beautiful, the altar being almost filled with
flowers, the most: conspicuous among them
being two very handsome floral crosses.
The concert consisted of singing and recita-
tions by the children of the Sunday School,
and soles by Mrs. Homnn of Brooklyn, and
Mrs. James Waterbury of New Rochelle.
Mrs. Langlois, the pastor’s wife, read a selec-
tion entitled “Little Willie,” with good effect,
and at the close the pastor delivered a short.
address. The church was filled to its utmost
extent, and those present were so well
pleased with the exercises that a strong in‘—‘
clination to applaud was at times manifest
and was only restrained by the sacredness of
the day. This school intend in future. to
give monthly concerts, and‘ meeting with
such success with the first is sufficient in-
ducement for so doing. , 9 .
Mr. J. C. Jones, of Noroton, has rented
his cottage to a gentleman from New York,
who is to take" immediate possession.
The y0ung ladies connected with . the
Methodist church held a sociable at the
house of Mrs. J 01in Moore on Thursday cVe-
ning'last. A large number were present and
~ _all expressed themselves as having had, a
pleasant time. Ice cream and other refresh—
ments were abundant, and the receipts
amounted to over twenty dollars. More in—
terest seems to be taken in the aflairs of the
church at present than has been manifest for
a long time,‘ and this is due to the earnest
efforts of the present'pastor, who by his en-
thusiasm in his work has inspired those
around him. - , ,
Mr. Ambrose Richards is building for the
society connected with St. Luke’s church,
Noroton, a chapel to be used by the Sunday

Farmers here agree that it is easy, enough
to raise good crops when showers add rain
storms are frequent, but the problem they
must solve this year is, how to succeed in
their work without rain. Few drops: have

The democrats of Westport think, and
republicans agree that, they have a splendid
candidate'for president of the United States
in the person of General Hancock. But,
splendid as he is, republicans will be cruel
but also be kind in claiming that he must be
defeated and Garfield elected in November.

The nomination of General Hancock, falls
like a wet blanket, on that peculiar class of
people who have been howling against the

brave officer, but we are sorry that he is
found in such questionable company.
The Danbury News thinks the drunken
individual, who stood on the railroad track in
this place and, defied a locomotive, mistook
it for a constable in a new silk hat. He was
a Danbury man, and as they_sell no intoxi-

Stratford rum made him imagine horrible
things.
Some young boys gave an exhibition, con-

The Indian Woman Susan, who so heroic-

the murdered Agent Meeker, was herself
once rescued from death in a romantic man-
ner. She was captured by a band of Ara—
pahoes. who put up a stake at the mouth of
the Cache LaPoudre river, intending to burn
her to death. The commanding officer at
FortCoIlins, having heard of the proposed
barbarity. by alternate threats and promises
obtained Susan’s release. It probably was
in remembrance of this that the squaw was
so devoted to Mrs. and Miss Meeker.

A careful examination of the points thus
far made in favor of a Democratic restora—
tion reveals only one leading reason, namely,
that a change is desirable. For what
purpose? Simply and only to give the
Democrats a chance to fill their stomachs at
the public expense—stomachs woefully em-
pty with the enforced fasting of twenty
years. The country was never less anxious
for change—Tribune.

The new regime of hotel keepers at Rock-'
away Beach are evidently convinced that it
is the magnitude if notxthe magnificence of
their ‘enterprises which is to attract the
crowds from the metropolis this Summer.
Certainly the chief enterprises there—the
mammoth hotel and the iron pier—are on a
scale unprecedented in this country, and it
follows almost naturally, at least in regard to
one, in the World. 'The Windsor of this city
might be conveniently stowed away in the
wings‘ of the Rockaway hotel. Both the
hotels at Manhattan Beach do not present as
large a front to the ocean as their new rival
across the inlet. Any three of the Long
Branch hotels and any two of those at Sara-
toga would not show so handsome and ex-
tended a front. Railways forthe convenience
of workmen now surround it, and suggest
the idea of a horse car line along its front
piazza for the convenience of its guests, just
as we have elevators now. A visitor at one
end will find it a small journey to call on his
friends at the other. Laid down in New
York City, it would extend from Fifth ave~
nue nearly to Seventh, and fronting the ave-
nue it would occupy just six times the
length of the Hotel Brunswick. With three
several dining rooms, each larger than nine—
tenths of our city hotels are, and 1,200 bed-
rooms, it will probably be able to accommo—
date all the guests who will demand admis-
sion. The iron pier nearly in its front,
designed to enable steamers to avoid the
shoals of the fast filling inlet and the nause-
ous smells of Barren Island (the refuse heap
of the metropolis and Brooklyn), is 1,200
feet long and 30 wide. The largest steamers
can approach it with ease, small ones having
recently touched in heavy seas. It is intend-
ed to have all manner of attractions on this
fine structure, and numerous boats will run
there. One of these fine days we shall have
the fashion set of landing European passen-
gers at one of these piers at the other end of
Long Island and running them into the city
by rail. ~

What Senator Hoar Says.
A Boston Herald representative recently
asked Senator Hoar for his opinion in regard
to the charges made against General Garfield
in connection with the Credit . Mobilicr
scheme. Senator Hoar was one; of the com—
mittee who investigated the Credit Mobilies,
and he answered the inquiry as follows: “I
was one of the committee who investigated
the Credit Mobilicr, and wrote the greater
part of the report of the committee known as'
the Wilson committee. There was nothing
in the transaction which in the least gave him
reason td distrust General'Garfield's absolute
integrity. The Credit Mobilier managers iln -
dertook to get prominent congressmen from
all parts of the country so interested in this
scheme that they would resist an investiga—
ition, if one was proposed. To accomplish
this, Oakes Ames induced prominent men to
take stock, not explaining to them the true
character of the transaction. ‘ Some of them
agreed to subscribe, but almost immediately
afterward, when they learned the relation of
the corporation to the government,withdrew.
Garfield claimed that he never consented to
subscribe; Ames,as l remember,at first swore
tlliit Garfield did not subscribe. Afterward"
Amcs changed his testimony and alleged that
Garfield did subscribe; but, whether he did
or did not, there was no claim anywhere that
he knew of the character of the transaction
in the beginning; that he remained connected
with ita moment after he discovered its true
character, or that he ever realized more than
$200 or $300 on account of it. I expressed
my opinion of the absolute honor and integ-
rity or General Garfield in this matter years
ago. No man, democrat or republican, who
ever served with Garfield, does, I think,
doubt that he is absolutely incorruptible. He
has been for years on the committees of ap—
propriation and ways'anil means, controling
the expenditure of millions upon millions and
policies that make and unmakc great business
interests. He lives in the most frugal way,
and his iiichoatc property does not in all cpual
a. single year’s profit of many 'Worchester
mechanics. The leader of the democratic
party will, before this canvass ends, put an
end to these foolish. charges, without repub-
lican contradictibn.”

Mr. Abram Elsworth, a. wealthy merchant
of Port Ewen, Ulster 00., N. Y., had suffered
for more than twenty-five years with a. disease
involving nea'rly the whole of the thigh bone,
and the suffering man w iven up by all
the physicians who had. nded him, who
said there was no help, he must die. Finally
Dr. Kennedy, proprietor of “ Favorite Reme-
dy," was consulted, who decided that ampu-
tation would save the patient. Dr. Kennedy
performed the operation, and then gave “Fa-
vorite Remedy ” .to purify the blood, and thus
prevent the return of the disease,—and Mr.
Ellsworth remains to this day, in the bloom of
health.
Are you suffering from any disorder of the
' Blood, Kidneys, Liver, or Constipation of the
Bowels ? Then use Dr. Kennedy’s “Favorite
Remedy.” ’
For all the ills peculiar to Females, old or
oung, Dr. Kennedy’s “Favorite Remedy "
s, and will prove, a. perfect blessing.
Your druggist has it; if not, send price of
a bottle (one dollar) to the Proprietor, Dr.
