W
Secretary Sherman.

Hon. John Sherman came here from
Bridgeport Saturday morning,and was taken
to the house of his relative and friend Mrs.
James A. Hoyt. At the Secretary’s request
he was driven around by the widow Nathan
Beers place, which was the home of his
grandfather, Taylor Sherman, and of his
father, Charles Sherman,and now in'a good
state of preservation.

Despite the severe rain of the afternoon
the Opera House was filled at 2 o’clock by a
most appreciative audience. Hon. Oliver
Hoyt was present and introduced the Honor-
able Secretary in a few appropriate and
earnest words. It was some moments be—
fore Mr. Sherman could begin his address,
so enthusiastic and prolonged were the
cheers. On the stage were many of our old-
eat and most highly esteemed citizens from
Norwalk, New Canaan, Wilton, Westport
and Fairfic‘d, most of whom had personally
known both Mr. Sherman’s father and grand-
father while residents of N orwalk. The
hearty greeting given Mr. S. was in the na—
ture of an ovation tendered to one who bore
the relation of a son of Norwalk who had
returned to us crowned with the nation’s
highest honors. His opening remarks were
a recognition of his own appreciation of this
sentiment which seemed to be expressed in
the éxceptionably cordial welcome. He nar-
rated the trials, exposures and sufferings of
his parents in their journeying from Nor-
walk in 181], to Western Connecticut, in
Ohio. This put him in complete sympathy
with his audience, an unusual number of
whom were Democrats. His address lasted
for full an hour and a half and every listener
regretted the necessity which compelled him
to stop and leave for New Haven, where he
spoke to an overflowing house.

His arguments here were simply unanswer-
able and irresistable. No such convincing
speech has been made during all our cam-
paign and every Republican regrets that he
could not have visited this home of his au—
cestors at an earlier period of the canvass.
The good effects of this Saturday afternoon
meeting will not be lost at the polls to—duy.
We regret that our time and limits prevent
as giving any outline 'of his masterly address.

Mr. Sherman Ieft on the 4 p.m. train to
meet his engagement to speak at New Ha—
yen in the evening and was followed in a
short but most eloquent speech by Rev. W.
H. Thomas. Mr. Thomas is a great favorite
here, as he is everywhere, and his earnest
Republicanism is the natural outgrowth of
his honest devotion to religious principle.
His incident of Massachusett’s war governor
Andrews lifting his eyes reverently to heav-
en as he placed his ballot over the box and
dropping it in with a prayer, only fltly illus—
trated the speaker’s own ideas of the sacred—
ness of a vote and the christian man’s duty
to cast it honestly and prayerfully.

In the evening our caucus was held at the
same place, when another gloriously patriotic
and stirring meeting was held.

This Monday night our last rally will be
had at the Opera House and we hope one and
all will be present. .Let not' our efforts or
enthusiasm wane till the close of the polls on
Tuesday night. .

#

Republican Caucus.

: At the caucus held at the Opera House
Saturday evening, George R. Cowles receiv-
ed about a hundred out of a hundred and
eleven votes, and was nominated by acclama-
tion. After details of the canvass was dis—
cussed, the evening was given up to a sort of
“love feast.” Rev. Mr. Hamilton was called
out and made an earnest and able address
Rev. Mr. Bentley was next called, and he
too, spoke (-al'ucsfly and eloquently of his
early Republican faith and works. He de
shared that he considered the present as one
of the most critical epochs in our nation’s
history, and could see no other ark of safety
except in the Republican party. Rev. Mr.
Bissell next responded to calls and made a
few very interesting remarks. He ended by
suggesting the good advice of noting-early.
He said he usually had voted before break-
fast and it did him good, and he always
relished his breakfast better for this duty
done. Revs. Messrs. Haulenbeck and Ful-
ler made most interesting, short and crispy
addresses. Judge Woodward was called out
and remarked that. a statement made by Rev.
Mr. Haulenbeck of his having met a Demo—
crat who said he believed Hancock would be
elected because God was with him, l0 forci-
bly reminded him of a story of one of his
little children that he felt justified in telling
it. His little daughter had requested to be
put to bed alone up stairs, having hitherto
slept below. The mother indulged the child's
whim and put her to bed up stairs as she had
been requested, but no sooner had she put
out the light and departed down stairs than
a cry arose for the parent to return. The
mother did so, and entering the room and
asking the matter, the child replied amid its
sobs, “I wants you to stay up here. I know
Bed is with me, but He wants to go down
stairs!” The Judge. was apprehensive that
Hancock was about in the same situation as
his little girl.

The caucus broke up about ten o’clock
with a resolve to vote early, to vote the full
Republican ticket ourselves and use all hon -
orable means to induce our friends and
neighbors to do the same.

”
For Senator.

Special efforts are already making to ob-
tain Republican votes for the Democratic
candidate for Senator. Oliver Hoyt will be
rc-elccted, but let his majority bc swelled by
the straight and honest vote of every Repub-
lican in the old 12th Senatorial District.

More Dirty Work.

After the dastardly forgery of a pretended
letter from Gen. Garfield has been exposed
and the criminal in prison, the Democracy
are guilty of the meanness and crime of giv-
ing the fraudstill further circulation. How
much less a dastard and a criminal is the
man who stabs a fellow man's honorable rep-
utation than he who puts a knife to his
throat ? ,

There was a marriage last week, of one of
our leading citizens of the Down Town Dis—’
trict. The bashful groom had seen only 83
and the blushing bride 82 sunny, summer
skies. .And after all, is there not something
poetically sweet in the fact that two human
lives have run so far down the afternoon
hillside and yet find its shadowy slopes still
warm and genial in the raysvof the late set—
ting sun, and gilded and gladdeped with the
matrimonial bliss and fervor of love’s young
dream? Sure we are that all will congratu-
late the happy couple, whose spans of life
have already endured so long, and will join
with us in the hope and wish that their
nuptial joys may be prolonged in health and
vigor for many more years to come, ere the
gates of the eternal world shall open before
their faltering steps.

Parallel Railroad.

The project of a new railroad between
New Haven and New York, has long been
talked of, many projects started, but sooner
or later fell through, the last being the cor—
poration known as the New York, Connecti-
cut and Eastern railroad company, or Paral-
lel road. This corporation went out of exist-
ence a few days ago, owing to some technical
points in their application for a charter. A
new company has been organized under the
name of the New York and Connecticut rail-
way company with the following gentlemen
as directors . Shelden Collins, H. Walter
Webb, Charles D.Ingersoll and C. V. Sidell,

port, S. E. Olmstead, George R. Cowles and
E. K. Lockwood of Norwalk, and Thomas
C. Ingersoll of New Haven. ’

The Hartford Gourant prints the following

in regard to the new company:

PATRIOTIC FIRES!
' NORWALK—I—EA BLAZE.

MILES OF STREAMING TORCHES AND
HOUSES AND GROUNDS ILLUMI-
NATED.
Thursday evening saw upper Norwalk in a
blaze of glory never before witnessed. New
York reporters and other visitors admitted
they had never seen anywhere an illumina—
tion so tasteful and so general. The marvel-
ous tact being that on the entire line of five
to eight miles of march, not less than
nineteen out of every twenty residences were
brilliantly illuminated in honor of the grand
parade of the Boys in Blue. Among the
prettiest decorations and showiest illumina-
tions was the house of Oliver Clark, though
on a side street. Then up West Avenue to
Elm street and along Elm and Franklin to:
Union Park, was one glare of lights, lanterns,
flags and transparencies. On all sides Of the
park and through Mott Place to West Ave—
nue again, but one single house omitted to
shed its cheering light, while up on Hillside
the residences or Henry I. Hoyt, Dr. Fitch
and Gen. Craufurd sent their gleaming lights
over the whole Borough and athwart the
darkened skies. Through Union Place and
Bclden Avenue to the Bridge, and up Main
street to Borough line, was one almost un-
broken illumination and line of fire. From
Matthilll Hubbell homestead to head of Main
houses and yards were gaily and variously
decorated with lights and lanterns, while
along both sides of the streets,attached to the
of trees with wires, were thousands of oil-
saturated cotton balls, running a literal river
of fire on either side. Thence through Union
Avenue to Eclipse Avenue,»Camp street, and
over North Avenue to the church green, the
same dazzling flood of lights ' greeted and
cheered the triumphs! march. The residence
of George Marvin, Camp street, was very
conspicuously illuminated. A pretty tableau
was arranged by Mrs. Joseph Ella, which
evoked the huzzas of all. VHer children were.
dressed in charcter of Goddess of Liberty &c.
The efifect was exceedingly beautiful and won
universal admiration. On all sides of the
Green, and with the residence of Miss Mary
Hoyt on the hillside, every house was in full
light and many most elaborately decorated.
‘Mrs. George R. Cowles had her house liter-
ally covered with Chinese lanterns, arranged
with gorgeous effect. Col. F. St. John Lock-
wood, Mrs. James A. Hoyt's place, Rev. Mr.
Hamilton, W. S. Moody, Wm. H. Earle and
many others on East Avenue letrtheir "light
shine” with a lavish liberalness‘never before
witnessed.

The most difficult part of the demonstra—A
tion, the feeding of the torch bearers, was
admirably arranged and gave less cause for
complaint than we have ever known. This
was due to the indefatigable labors of the
committee,and the zealous and constant work
of the Republican ladies—God bless them—
who stood over tables making sandwiches
and cake for hour after hour together.

All along the line of march unique and
original devices, mottos and transparancies
were shown. In front of the GAZETTE en-
trance was this : .

THE OLD GAZETTE BIDs You 5
THRICE WELCOME, =
PATRIOTS, FRIENDS.

....................... uuu-nnu-u-unuu... -

Depending from the Garfield and Arthur
line on “Old Glory,” which has so gloriously
floated all through the canvass, across from
the Gazette Building, was the greeting:

....................... "nu-n...""nu-"no

All Hail! Victory Complete! ,
Its All Right, Boys! .95

Let the Eagle Scream, 835
And the Cannon Roar! 5

886

...... "nu-unu.-nun.-o.u-n....u.ouna

. Many Of the admirable and large likenesses
of Gen. Garfield on muslin, were set out
with lights behind and made avery attractive
show. This large lithographic picture is
about the only good and really correct like-
ness of our candidate that we have seen.

Upon the porch roof of one residence on
Belden Avenue, where the recent filthy mode
of conducting a campaign had induced the
dirty Democrats to get down in the gutter
and chalk all over the walk and paste upon
the fence and gate posts the disgusting but
harmless figures, “329,” a transparency was
shown in large letters: '

nun-u- ............... .uu-uu-u-ou-unu

5 BEAT US ?_ 5
‘ Not by a 329 Sight! 3

Another sentiment was strung across
den Avenue, as follows:

..............

5 That Boy in Blue who bore his part
Until he lay in Southern earth,
Was not his bullet silenced heart,

- Full every loyal ballot worth.

"nun-no. .u a nu -.

soc-o-

In short, buntings, festooning, mottos, pic-
tures, Chinese lanterns and transparencies
made the upper portion of the town look
like an enlarged edition of fairyland.

A company of fantastics, representing
various conceits, were in line and provoked
universal laughter. An old, dilapidated
mule with “Barnum’s Own 329,” in large
letters on his sides, and two old carpet bags
depending across his back, with “stolen dis-
patches,” “forged letters," etc., marked \
thereon, and on top of the bags a barrel with
beads broken in and labeled “Indiana and
Ohio," provoked no end of mirth. ’
All in all this parade was the best, the
most beautiful, showy, and universally en—
joyed of any political demonstration ever
witnessed in old Norwalk.

Great disappointment was felt that the

appearance according to promise.

The procession formed on West avenue in
the following order:—The Howe Band of
Bridgeport; Bigelow Battalion and Garfield
Guards,of Norwalk ; Truck with Fireworks;
Darien Boys in Blue ; the RowanlBattery of
South Norwalk ; Bulkeley Zouaves, Boys in
Blue, Tow Path Cavalry, Norwalk Band,
Young Men’s Republican Club, and Hill
Battery of South Norwalk; New Canaan
Boys, in Blue and Garfield Guards; West-
port Boys in Blue; Stamford Band, Robin-
son Guards, and Co. A and Co. B Boys .in
Blue, of Stamford ; Georgetown Boys in
Blue ; Fireworks, Danbury Boys in Blue.
We printed last week the full list of Mar-
shalls and the line of march. All the ar-
rangements were carefully perfected, and
everything,_from first .to last, passed off in a
highly satisfactory andipleasing manner. The
arrangements for feeding were admirable,
there was an abundance of excellent hot cof~
fee, the best of sandwiches, cake in endless
variety, apples, etc., to which the boys did
full justice. The (glmmittee was composed
of Messrs. A. J. Meeker, ’E. O. Keeler and
O. B. Coolidge, who were ably assisted by a
corps of young business men.

This Week’s comical contribution from our

Sticking to the Forgery.

Our opponents sent out early Monday
morning a copy of their ticket included in a
circular, still endorsing the Chinese labor
forgery, which they have so basely and crim-
inally introduced into this canvass. Decent
men would be ashamed to flaunt a publicly
exposed forgery before the eyes of intelligent

workingmen. For shame. No such dis—
graceful iniquity can win.
m

$20 for a Vote.

The New Haven staff correspondent for
the Tribune, who resides in New 'Haven,
charges that the Democracy thére are paying
$20 each for colored votes. The same in—
formation comes from Bridgeport and other
towns, and the game is already on foot here
in Norwalk. If a colored man’s vote is
worth $20 what should an Irishman‘s vote
be worth, who always votes the “regular
ticket ?"

 

Bad Omen.

That lying banner at South Norwalk,
which has flaunted the lines “We vote as we
fought for the whole Union,” came down
with a crash Saturday night, and was dread-
fully bedrabbled in the mud, as it deserved.
In falling it toppled OR the chimney of Al—
derman Ely’s building, above ex-Mayor
Swartz’s store. If the veteran boys do vote
as they fought, and we believe they will,
they will make it as hot for the “solid
South" as they did in the war, but the vete—
eran’s don’t train under that kind of a ban-
ner. ’

 

Messrs. Editors:—

Will the South Norwalk Sentinel let the
public know on what particular kind of
work it kept its presses running last Sunday
and whether General Taylor did not so cm-
ploy them. SOUTH NORWALK.

The Democratic Turn—Out. .
The democrats had a fine night for their
torch-light parade, Friday. They had be-
tween thirteen and fourteen hundred in line,
as we are assured by two careful counters.
The numbers of our citizens who illuminated
in their honor were in very dark contrast
with the previous. evening. Mr. Samuel
Beatty was very prettily decorated with
lanterns. Mr. ‘Chichester shed all the
light he could. T. H. Morison furnished an

 

expensive lot of rockets. Father Russell and

H. H. Barbour, helped out the gascompany
most liberally, While Dr. Nolan’s house was
about the showiest along the dark and weary
line of march. Dr. Brush showed his rays
of light above and below his drug store.
There were feeble attempts at illuminations
up Mala street, and one house on the green,
but as a whole, the illuminations were like
the angels “visits few and far between."
Indeed, it is said the parade got lost at the
head of Main street, although they had a
locomotive light in their procession. There
were many uniformed stragglels by the way
side not. of the blue ribbon order. Yet asja
whole, the democracy had a jubilant time, all
was their right.

At the refreshment table, some disgraceful
proceedings are reported, and we have heard
many democrats, themselves, complain of
the management and deficiency in their ra-
tions. The visiting Bridgeport companies of
over five hundred men, complained that they
got nothing at all to eat, while our Norwalk
clubs, by a sharp manoeuvre got at the table
first and were well fed. We give the rumor
on democratic authority, which is poor at
best, and hope for the credit of our town
this last charge is untrue.

Two windows were mashed in Main street
and our democratic Borough authorities

knowing ,the character :of their party, put

several extra policemen on duty that night,
and there was work enough for all to do. It
is needless to say that ,Thursday night, dur-

Our Committees.

We have neither room-nor time to speak
as we would wish. in commendation of the
extraordinary amount of work done by our
several committees, national, state, town and
schOol district. 'Of Gov. Jewell, it may be
said that no man who has been called to fill
that responsible position, has more assiduous-
ly,laborlously Or ably devoted all his energies
to that trying duty. He has had no chance
to appear on the stump and exhibit himself
in showy oratory, but in quiet work and
herculean endeavor he has “organized victo-
ry” and made this extraordinary canvass a
success. Too much or too great praise can—
not be accorded Marshall Jewell.

Col. Harmon of our State committee has
been instant in season and out of season,
and has conducted his canvas: with remark-
able success. We want to express our debt
of gratitude to him and his able First Lieut.,
Stiles T. Stanton, Esq. '

Our several town committees have worked
night after night and day after day and per—
fected the most complete canvass ever taken
in Norwalk. Their invaluable assistants,the
local school district committeemen, one and
all, deserve praise and gratitude, and after
Norwalk’l vote is counted Tuesday night,
every earnest Republican will, we know,

them. ______
Voters in the Second Voting District will

The nomination of Mr. James B. Selleck as
representative is a compliment to the old
families of the town, in the midst of which
he has always resided. In honesty, patriot-
ism, loyalty to his country and his party; in
intelligence and purity of private life, he is
the peer of any who have preceded him in
the position for which he has been nomina-
ted, and he is sure to be elected.

there her influence; there she can make or

a better boy than “Hobo Bigelow" never en-

swallowed a lemon seed, which lodged in one

hours with great reluctance; and after en-
during internal agonies of a most distressing
nature. it has now ceased striking altogether.
Though a happy release for the clock, this
is not convenient to the household. If you
can send down any confidential person with
whom the clock can confer. I think it may
have something on its works that it would
be glad to have a clean breast of. Faithfully

Six Preachers, all of them called

(The following letter reveals the condition
of one out of many neighborhoods scattered
all over theSouth, densely populated with
negroes, neglected by the whites, excepting
as the agent or overseer of the plantation
looks after the owner’s interests as connected
with the labor of the people. NO schools, no
churches, excepting such asare ministered to
by preachers as ignorant and, in many cases,
as licentious as the people themselves. Just
think of it! The visit of this Sunday-school
agent the first visit of a white Christian to
the hundred families; their religious and
other culture such as those six preachers
could glve! And this not in Central Africa,
but in the very heart of the southwest portion
of our own land! These pSOple citizens of
our republic. and voters! -—En. MIss)

A missionary of the American Sunday-
School Union in the Southwest writes: “I
recently organized a Sunday-School for the
colored people at Homan Station, on the St.
Louis, Iron Mounting & Southern R. R., in
Miller County, between Texarkana and the
Red River. where is a large cotton plantation,
and two others are near, having in more than
one hundred families. Among them is one
Baptist church, and six preachers, every one
‘called !’ Only two of them can read, and
the pastor or ‘headmreacher’ is blind; and
so are all, in spiritual things, preachers and
people. After delivering an address, I found
that only seven in the audience could read.

In all, fifty adults and children joined the
Sunday School and promised to learn to read.
I furnished them with primers, Bibles, Tes-
taments, etc , which seemed to please the
plantation agent or overseer as well [as the

 

people.

After the school was organized, the blind
preacher gave a sermon from Rev. xxii. 1. 2.
another preacher doing the reading. I shall
not attempt to characterize the sermon, sing-
ing and responses.‘ When will white Chris-
tians. who know the way of life, surrender
their prejudices and teach these poor,
nighted people thp truths of the Gospel '1’
My visit was the first made by a whlte Chris-
tian worker to the place, and will be remem-
bered."—Anwrl'can Missionary.

A Street that leads to Unulter—

able Woe. -

If the true history of Wall street were
written and spread all over the land, the peo-
ple would read read with amazement the ac-
counts which it would contain of families
ruined and hearts broken by rash speculation.
Every little while we find the explanation of
some defalcation, or sudden madness, or sci--
cide, is supplied by the fact. the unfortunate
victim had been "dabbling in stocks in Wall
street." But the instances‘ of rain which
come to light and are known to the public.
bear a very small ratio to the crushed hopes
and darkened lives which disappointment in
Wall street has caused.

There is a recklessness in this matter of
speculating in stocks which is incomprehen—
sible. Men who are prudent in their ordina-
ry business affairs risk all they have—4nd
often much more than they have of their
own—on an event an uncertain as it is what
the weather will be a year hence! They hear
of some acquaintance having made “a hit”
in speculating in some particular stock, and
forthwith they rush into Wall street as if all
who dealt there came away with fortunes.

It is one of the. saddest of mistakes. There
are scarcely say, even of the oldest operators

in Wall street—of those longest and most
deeply versed in its mysteriel,—who have
not at some time been oblidged to succumb
to ill-fortune. The cases of rapid and con-
tinued money making are like the large pri-
zes in lotteries, few to the many blanks.

We see so much ,of heart—felt anguish
caused by the untoward and unexpected re-
sults of speculation, that we feel constrained,
renewedly and with increased emphasis, to
caution our readers last all the fool-hardy
risks which are as y embodied in thesin—
gle term. “Wall stroet."-‘-Robart'Bonmr. j; -

 

 

 

 

American Homes.

There have been few things of the many
remarkable utterances of Gen. Garfield, more
beautiful than his short address last week to
a company of 721 ladies of Cleveland, who
went to his home in Mentor, to pay the next
President, theirrespects. Said Gen. Garfield
among other things: '

. “It'seems to me as 1 look upon this as-
semblage that there could be no such scene
as this in any but a free country, fer this
reason: In all monarchial nations the govern-
ing power does the governing itself—our
fathers reversed that order and the real
governing power in this country never does
the actual work of government, but caused
it to be done by agents and servants. The
governing power stays at home and sends its
servants too do the work of Government.
During the late war there were great forces,
the army that fought, those who paid and
supplied the army, and the people at home.
Still closer to the sovereign heart, who in—
spired both prayers and fighters to execute
the Nation’s will, that third inner line was
the home line, on which all the patriotic
women of America labored and loved and
gave their last inspiration to the Nation in
its hour of peril. So in all other great
public works, those who go forward to ex—
ecute the Nation’s will are only its servants.

The will of the Nation resides in the
hearts and homes and by the forest fires of
fifty millions of people, and there by the
hearthstone nearest to the hear of our sover-
eign, the people, it is woman’s great and
benevolent power to impress itself upon the
National . will.

I greet you for having brought the spirit
of home to my home—the spirit of so many
American homes to cheer, strengthen and
inspire whatever of National life and force
there may be in this home, which is only
one of the millions. Ladies, this unique
exhibition of American spirit, this spirit
which inspired our soldiers, while fighting
succoredthem in sickness,and consoled them
in dying. I say this exhibition to-day is but
another manifestation of the growing power
of home upon America ublic life and for it
and all that it means. thank you with all
my heart.

From the Bridgeport Standard.

The Lecture of Prof. Watson. at the
Opera House last evening, was a strong ar-
gument for a better method of treating dis-
ease, with a comparison of the method of
INTERNAL MEDICATION with that of EXTERNAL
Ansonr'rrou. "

In the former,success depends wholly upon
a knotvledge of theinternal chemical condition
existing at a given time, in order to supply a
correct chemical antidote or other corrective
of the abnormal state. Common observation
and experience, as well as the testimony of
many eminent physicians and writers, give
the strongest evidence that such accurate
knowledge as is necessary for this purpose, is
practically impossible. The conclusion is
hence inevitable, that internal medication is
almost wholly a series of chemical experi-
ments, and the results abundantly justify this
conclusion.

EXTERNAL Ansonp'rrox, on the other hand
has for its basis, the NATURAL Law or A1:
sonmox, the operation of which, unlike the
internal chemical condition is open to connec-
tion; it is of necessity in harmony with the
whole human system, and with the forces Of
life and the laws of health. If then, this
NATURAL Law can be made the instrument of
conveying to the system directly, such reme-
dies as will stimulate and assist. these laws and
forces of life, when '_they have become debil-
itated by disease,the whole system may be in-
vigorated and restored together. ‘

Such remedies are provided, in the H01-
man Pads, Plasters and Medicated Salt, pre -
pared by the Holman Pad Co., of New York.

The many times wonderful and the always
beneficial results produced by these remedies
—when faithfully used—attest in the fullest
and most emphatic manner, their true schn-
trfifio character. and their inestimable value,as
a curative agency.

The “Bodegas” of New York.

Ancient and modern history fail to record
an instance of inefilciency in pure wines
when administered to the debilitated system.
On the contrary, the highest medical authori-
ty in the world has not merely pronounced
them beneficial, but has made it obligatory
that they be used in hospitals and in the sick
chamber. Every advocate of temperance
acknowledges their wonderfully vitalizing
effects, yet avoid proclaiming it, believing
pure wine, if not unattainable, certainly,
without the reach of people of ordinary
means. This is a fallacy and vanishes in the
presence of veritable facts. Mr. Timothy
Stevens, who for more than a quarter of a
century was identified with the most noted
wine house in the country, and lat erally
alone, as an importer of fine wines, has mod-
ernized the system of supply and demand at
his “Bodegas," or wine rooms, 83 Cedar St.,
and 351 Broadway, New York. There the
consumer is brought face to face with agrand
variety of Sherries, Ports and Maderia
Wines. as they come from the vaults of the
producer on the Continent of Europe. From
this array of superb wines a bottle of Port
Wine—for instance—which is generally sup-
posed to be unattainable in its pure state,
can be had for $1; or a cask may be selected
from which a glass may be partaken, testing
its qualily. A hamper, costing $5, contain-
ing a half dozen bottles of assorted wines,
may be ordered by mail. The method of
placing these choice wines before the public.
as adopted by Mr. Stevens at his “Bodegas,”
is new to this country. The wines are of a
price and quality that speak for themselves.
The business reputation of the proprietor of
these novel “Bodegas" is a guarantee of
straightforward dealing with all.
