DARIEN.

The Boys in Blue had a grand parade here
last Friday night. At a low estimate there
were four hundred Many houses were
beautifully illuminated. among which Mr. C.
J. Waterbury's made a fine appearance. A
bountiful lunch was provided and served in
Mr. Brady’s blacksmith shop. The whole
state and national ticket Will be triumphant
in Darien next Tuesday.

Mr. Edwin G. Hoyt of Norwalk, and Miss
Mary H. Weed of Darien, were married last
Wednesday evening, at the Methodist church,
Rev. J. T. Langlois performed the ceremony.

Rev. Mr. Bradford spoke on “The duty of
Christians to the Government,” last Sunday
evening. His text was Exodus, 18:21

1. He gave the circumstances that called
forth the words of the text.

2. Spoke of the origin of nations.

3. That civil governments as an institution
is as divine as the church.

4. When true to God’s idea agovernment
is one of the greatest booms that heaven con-
fers.

5. While no precise form is given,‘,there
are certain principles which must underlie
a government to secure divine approval.

(1.) All men must be equal before the law.

(2,) Life, liberty and property must be
protected.

(3.) Rulers must be just men, not control!-
ed by bribes,—men of truth,—not given to
wine nor strong drink.

(4.) The people must have a voice in elect-
ing their rulers.

(5. It is a sacred duty to sustain sucha
government. Men should vote as conscien-
tiously as they pray. A piety that shrinks
from meeting ones obligation to his govern—
ment, is too good for this world.

Mr. Bradford closed his remarks by urging
upon all good citizens to use their best en—
deavors to dissuade all from celebratinga
party victoryby a drunken debauch. There
was a good audience and all listened with
absorbing interest, to the close of the ad-
dress. Were there more such plain, direct,
uncompromising preaching, there would be‘
intelligent voting and less baseness connected
with political life.

NEW CAN AAN,

On Wednesday last, a fashionable wedding
took place at the residence of Mrs. Charles
E. Dann ; the event being the uniting in the
holy bonds of matrimony, her only daughter,
Jennie P., to Mr. G. Duff Nichols, formerly
of Pittsburgh, Penn. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. George E. Reed of
Stamford. The bride looked very pretty,
she was dressed in Geedarme blue, cut en.
trains and decorated with orange blossoms.
The groom was dressed in a neat suit of
black. Among the presents, which were
many, was one from the mother of the bride,
a moroco case lined with cardinal satin, con-

'ning one dozen solid silver tea spoons, one

A Notable Class.

It has become somewhat the fashion among
Yale men to speak of some of their classes
as distinguished far above others. We know
not whether the class of 1827 has been much
spoken of in this way; but, as the recent
death of Rev. Dr. Adams, and frequent no-
tices of the life and writings of Rev. Dr.
Bushnell have drawn public attention to it,
there appear to be good reasons for claiming
this distinction for it. These reasons are
found in a host of names and titles as given
in the Triennial Catalogue for 1880, in al-
phabetical order:

William Adams, S. T. D., LL. D., Prmses,
. Sac.

Theron Baldwin, S. T. D,

Horace Bushnell, LL. 1)., Prof. et Presses.
Henry Plerrepont Edwards, J. S. 0., N. Y.
George Gould, J. S. C., N. Y.

Henry Hogeboom, LL. D., J. S. C., N. Y.
Mason Grosvenor, S. T. D. and Prof.
Robert A. Hallam, S. T. D.

William W. Hudson, Prof. et Praises.
Sidney Law Johnson, Prof.

Robert McEwen, S. T. D.

A Forest Shepherd, Prof.

Ephraim Simonds, Prof.
Joseph H. Town, S. T D.
Cortland VanRensselear, S. T. D.
William H. Welch, Chief Judge Supreme
Court, Minn.
Besides these are the following ministers:

Joseph R. Baldwin, W. H. Bidwell,
Rebulon Cracker, Geo. E. Delevan,
Maltby Gelston, C. P. Grosvenor,
Albert Hale, Richard Hooker,
Samuel Howe, William Kirby,
Samuel Lee, J. M. S. Perry,

Alanson Saunders, C. G. Selleck,
Asa Turner, Wm. Whittlesey.
Others of the class were lawyers and doc-
, tors, bankers and business men.
The last name is that of N- P. Willis.
There were eighty graduates in the class :
fifty names have the *.

Few people realize what the newspapers
do for the world, and as it is the duty of an
honest journal to give the news with utter
impartially, we are now compelled to set
natural modesty aside in the cause of truth,
and by a few figures make plain the immense
obligation to “the press” under which the
public are resting. There are 6,952 Weeklies.
135 semi-weeklies, 90 tri weeklies and '782'
dailies in the United States. During the
eighteen weeks preceding the election these
papers printed on the average certainly not
less than 300 lines in each issue bearingupOn.
politics. They also put the “ticket” in the
most conspicuous place on the best adver-
tising page. At the rates the Tildcn bureau
offered for puffs “printed as reading matter”
—that is one dollar a line—the contributions
of the weeklies was $37,540,800; of_ the
semi and Iri-weeklies $1,458,800 each; and
of the dailies $25,336,800; total $65,793,600
This is what the 8,00 editors have given for
the good of their country in the past eighteen
weeks, and it is perhaps now no longer a
wonder that editors are poor. If every man
who voted on Tuesday had given as much as
each editor’s gift 'averaged, 'the country
would have received $60,000,000,000 and
we could have paid of the nationhl debt
thirty—three times, or, if preferred, could

An English paper tellg ll good story of the
Burns Head inn at Barnard castle. The sign
is a portrait of the poet. said to. be an excel-
lent likeness. At any role. Mr. Merritt, un-
cle to the present owner of Rokeby, thought
so; and once, when he had walked over here
from Rokeby with Sir Walter Scott, he point.
ed it out to him and praised it 9.8 a highly
successful hit of portraiture. “How long has
it been there ?" Twa or three years," was the
answer. “Then" said Scott, “take my word
for it, it is not like Burns. Robbie Burns
would not have stayed so long outside a pub—
lic house."

WESTPORT.

Mr. Samuel Wood, classmate and gl'adllate
of the same college with General James A.
Garfield, candidate for president, has in his
possession several autograph letters of that
distinguished gentleman with whom he has
corresponded during the campaign. A com-
parison of the letter with the forged letter
on the Chinese question shows what a mis-
erable failure has been the effort of the base
imitator in the Morey document.Not afrepubli
can vote will be lost here on account if tie
alleged authorship, and reasonable democrats
give Mr. Garfield the benefit of a doubt.

The death of Mrs. London, Monday, was
sudden, though not unexpected; A large
number of people attended her funeral Wed
nesday.

One hundred and twenty new voters have
been made here. A good portion of them are
republicans.

Tuesday the polls will open at 6 a. m. and
close at 5 p. m. '

’In the case of the Middlesex Fire Insur-
ance Company as Owen O'Brien, now on
trial before the Superior Court, the company

as they allege that, O‘Brien set fire to his
house to get the money. -

More than usual animation has been shown
herein the present campaign, by both par-
ties, and all will rejoice when it closes.

Of course Westport will go democratic,
but it is hoped democrats and republicans
can agree as to the fitness of Capt, H. P.
Burr for Judge of Probate and cast votes
enough to elect him. .

Mr. Silas B. Sherwood is the democratic
candidate for Judge of Probate for this dis-
trict.

Messrs. L. B. Bradley and H. W. Lyon,
are going for Mr._SanIord’s scalp and before
night of Tuesday will make it hot for that
gentleman.

Question? Why will not selectman Geo.
S Adams permit surveyor Geo. H. Nash, to
finish the Church street improvement.

Mr. W. R. McCready 'who has been trav-
eling in the South, comes back a stronger
republican than ever. He says the people of
the South know but one side of the political
issue, the leaders taking pains constantly to
keep only democratic views before them. In
all the principal cities he visited, the only
leading New York paper was the Sun. He
had proposed making a longer stay but
failing to get hold of the Times. Tribune and

disgusted and left. PAUL.

 

The Oyster and his Enemies.

 

From the London News.

Oysters may be generally classified into
natives and deep sea, and between there are
several varieties the shells of most of which
I have b my museum. The deep sea oysters
are as diferent in form and fashion from the
natives as a Clydesdale cart-horse is from a
thoroughbred race horse. Like horses, oys-
ters have their points. The points of an oys-
ter are—first, the shape, which, to be perfect,
should resemble very much the petal of a
rose leaf. Next, the thickness of the shell.
A first-class thoroughbred native should have
a shell of the tenuity of a thin Chinese or
Japanese teacup. It should also have an al-
most metalic ring, and a peculiar opalescsnt
lustre on the inner side; the hollow for the
meat of the oyster should be as much like an
egg cup as possible. Lastly, the meat itself
should be white and firm and nut like in
taste.

Being of a very delicate. tender nature, the
oyster has a great many difilculties to encoun-
ter. One of its worst enemies is the “five-
finger," commonly called the star- fish. The
five finger entwines the oyster in its deadly
grasp, and by protruding his elastic stomach
eats up the oyster, leaving the empty shells,
known as "clocks.” One would hardlyim-
agine that the five finger had any sense, but
still they must have some kind of intelli-
gence, or, as a dredgerman aptly put it to
me : “When these five fingers find a fleet of
vessels on the top of them with the dredges,
they double themselves up andfare off. They
are not going to stop to be all dredged up."
The next worst enemy is the “whelk tingle"
or “dog whelk." These rascals, although
they look so innocent, have the power of
boring into the oyster shell with their rasp-
like tongue. The hole this creature makes
is out very clean, as if bored by a jeweler's
diamond, and they often destroy hundreds
of pounds worth of property. He, who
would invent a trap to catch these dog-
whelks would indeed be a benefactor to oys-
ter fishery proprietors. Periwinkles are
friends to oysters; they are largely employ-
ed to keep the beds and the “culch” clean by
eating up the slimy green weed that grows
so abundantly, especially in hot weather.
Mussels are no friends to oysters. A colony
of mussels will, unknown to the proprietor
of the oyster bed, often settle upon the
“spem gregis” of “half—ware,” so carefully
deposited, to grow and fat. The mussels
immediately on settling down spin their cu-
rious, silk-like webs, as seen under piers,
etc., by means of which they are enabled to
anchor themselves so firmly. The run of the
tide then brings mud, the webs of the mus-
sels, collect it, and the oysters underneath,
unless released by the dredge, are smothered
like the Princess in the Tower.

It will be remarked that there is no real
“fat" in an oyster; to fatten oysters, there-
fore, is an expressive, but not correct term.
One thing I must advise my readers to do
during the present state of the oyster mar-
ket, and that is, never to allow the oyster to
be served to them on the flat shell but always
on the round shell, with the natural liquor
left in the hollow. This liquor is not sea
water, but contains much of the same chemi-
cal ingredients as the oyster itself. This
hitherto for the most part we have allowed
those who open oysters for us to throw away
as useless. This hint,"if the oyster ester is
wise, he will at once adopt.

Maid Cleoly’s Steeple-Cup-

 

I conning my missal, o’erheard to-day,

At matins, the Lady Abbess say

That Thomas the friar, who hath an eye
For matters that go in the realm awry,
Like Peter—the-Hermit, comes to aid

King Edward by preaching a new Crusade:
And findeth the secret of all mishaps

Bound up in the woman’s steeple-caps!

She said that he preached in London town.

And took as his text, “Top not come down ;"

~Plain language as ever the dear Lord
spake—

And he vouched if the woman failed to take

These spires from off their heads, and tear

The ketchiefs away that dangle there,

Saint Peter, who keepeth the golden keys

Of Heaven, on seeing such caps as these,

Would shut of a surety the door and cry,

“The gateway is low and the coif is high;

Begone with the beetling badge of sin,

Or not one woman shall enter in!

He frightened them so that straight they tors
Their caps right ofl on the abbey fioor,

And fired them there; (I dare suppose

The fume was sweet to the friar‘s nose!)

“Maid Cicely ;"—Quick as quick could be,
I turned when the abbess spoke to rue-—
“Thou wearest asteeple—cap, I wean,
As high as the highest that I have seen ;
And the silken veil about it wound
I‘rails over thy kirtle to the ground.
Such towers, my daughter, proud and tall,
May tumble as did Siloam's wall;
Take heed! Thouknowest Saint Luke doth
. tell,
How on the eighteen that lower fell
And slew them—"

“Grs’mercy,” quoth I then,
“But good my Mother—they all were men,
And none had been slain, I trow, at all,
Had only the tower refused to fall l”

“Yet had it been meant that thou shouldst be
An ell-breadth higher—dost thou not see
That God would have made thee so ?” “Nay,
MY. .
Whatever we can—’tis certes, true—
Accomplish, He leaveth for us to do.

“He meant that the monk be shaven bare P
Then why did He clothe his head with hair Y
-He meant that thy nuns should shear away
Their beautiful locks ?—Thcn. wherefore,
pray,
Did he make them grow ?—So. Mother,
mine, ’
Unless thou provost by word and line
Of Missal, or even Evangelist,
That Scripture hath banned it, I will twist
The krchief about my steeple cap;
And the monk shall know that it takes a rap
Of something more than. a Shaven-crown
To tumble a maiden’s top knot down !”

A Funny Court Scone.

Last session the New York Legislature
passed a law making the father of a minor
responsible for the child stealing a ride on a
street car. The penalty§was fixed, and the
driver instead of brutally beating the boy or
throwing him off, was required to hand him
over to the police. William Ryan got on n
Christopher street car the other day and did
not pay his fare. He was arrested. His
accuser was somewhat of a humorist and
claimed that as William was only twenty
years of age he was legally an infant.
William was a vigorous-looking “baby," and
a half grown beard seemed to utter a silent
protest against the application of such a term
to its wearer. "Poor little fellow," said
Justice Smith. The prisoner get red in the
face and bithis lip, “Is your papa in court,
Willie" Ryan fidgeted about-sud looked as
it he would like to have the judge’s head
within reach as! he answered, savagely,
"No." “That’s too bad. You see your papa
is responsible for you, and he shouldn't—
really be shouldn’t—let his children run
about in this manner. I think you should

accompany you to keep you out of mischief.
You are a naughty boyngillie, and I’ll have
to fine you $10.” To‘look at Ryan's face
one would have thought he was in an apo-
pletic fit.He stammered out something which
referred to "a man” and “dignity. ” “Willis"
said his honor, “you could ride in a cab much

chea er."

An old monkey, designing to teach his
sons the advantage of unity, brought them a
number of sticks and desired them to see how
easily they might be broken one at a time.
So each young monkey took a stick and broke
it. “Now,” said the father, “I’ll teach you a
lesson." And he began to gather the sticks
into a bundle. But the young monkeys,
thinking he was about to beat them,set upon
him altogether and disabled him. f‘There,"

Picttirc of a. Frantier Village In
Western Missouri.

Here is a picture of a frontier village in
Western Missouri, as sketched by a mission-
ary of the American Sunday School Union:
"Visited the hotel (so—called) and found a
crowd in the barroom around a dingy stool,
trying to extinguish the fire with tobacco
juice, and others darkening the room by the
aid of short pipes; but none could inform
me as to Sunday School matters in the place.
So, after dark, I went out to visit, with a
bundle of religious and temperance tracts, in
atoms and saloons,and found groups engaged
in killing time, and card tables were occu-
pied by eager players, among whom a tract
on profane swearing, by the American Sun-
day School Union. caused much remark and
debate. - - . .

“Thenext day I visited the day school,
and every house and ‘store, and announced
my Sunday School mgeting. Some excused
themselves from such work. One woman
kept the seventh day as the Sabbath; another
said, ‘1 don‘t want to study in the Old Tes-
tament, coat the Ten Commandments are
than and Jesus fulfilled the law and we uns
are under grace.’ But three-fourths of those
present at the meeting favored a Sunday
School, and gave some money for books to
organize it. An old preacher and a young
lawyer promise help."
