The festivities of the season have com--
The fan-dang of‘
menced in good earnest.
Tuesday night was a very private affair, and
of it little is known outside of the select
number present. On Wednesday evening
the social and musicaie of the pupils of our
public school was held in Union Chapel,
under the direction of Miss Nettie Hanford.
the teacher, and her aids. The exercises.
were singing. dialogues and recitations, in
which the scholars acquitted themselves well.
Master" Lounsbury, a pupil of the Union
School, South Norwalk, volunteered to give
a recitation, and he did it well, showing by
the modulating of his voice, and thewery
natural gestures, what may be accomplished
by proper application, and a good teacher.
We are informed that this is the Second time
an exhibition by the school has been given,
' since the new school was erected.
Saturday was truly a “holiday," children
visiting their parental homes, or parents
visiting their childrens homes, making hearts
glad by good wishes, and the exchanging of
Christmas gifts. Many a son whose occu—
pation is far away from home, sweet home,
returned after a years successful business,
and made mothers, sisters, and brothers
hearts glad, by the kiss of love, which were
left behind. ,
’ Union Chapel has been tastefully decorat-
ed for christmas. On account of _the storm
Dr. Spencer was not present on Sunday p.
m., as expected. The Sabbath school will
hold their Christmas cxercsies on Wednesday
evening next, in the Chapel, commencing at
7 o'clock. _ ' w '
The Young Peoples Association are con-
templating a public meeting in Good Tem-
plare Hall, to which the old people will be
invited.
, On Friday evening, despite the storm, the
social and hop given by the Bates Brothers,
was held-in Good Tcmplars Hall. Repre-
sentatives were present from New Canaan
and Daricn, music 'by Ofiin's string band.
As it was, ‘our home talent was in the ascen-
dency, who concluded to make it a success.
entered into the enjoyments and festivities
of the occasion with good will. '
Our postal facilities are of the first order,
if one is in no haste for the transaction of
messages, If a letter is to go cast, it must
go to Stamford, and be sent back by express"
train, and often, letters for New Haven,
Bridgeport or Norwalk, are not delivered in
two days.
WILTON.
Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Mchin are whiling
away the holidays visiting friends in Brook—
lyn.
Miss Gertie Turner is spending the holidays
with friends in Brooklyn.
St. Matthew’s church has been decorated
with more than usual taste and beauty this
season. The usual Christmas Eve services
were held on Friday evening and the Sabbath
school children generously remembered.
The Farmers’ Club at Hurlbutt street is
by no means a moribund institution, and a
similar club should be in every school dis-
trict in town.
The Congregational people held one of
their pleasant Christmas exercises on Friday
evening. The singing, led by Mr. Frank
Comstock, was excellent, and the respbnses
by the children distinct and clear. The
rccitalions by the children was an interesting
feature of the evening, and all acquitted
themselves so well, that to name individuals
would be creating a “distinction without a
difference.” After the close of the recitations
a large Christmas tree was stripped of its
fruit to the great delight of the “small fry.”
Most of the classes recognized the fidelity and
devotion of their teachers by suitable gifts.
At the conclusion of this distribution a
quartctte composed of Messrs, Bette and
Poily,and the Misses Gregory and J immerson
sang “Sweet Good Night.” The classes
then marched to the lecture room where the
ladies had prepared refreshments for them.
Mr. David L. Jones was married on
Wednesday at the residence of the bride’s
parents, by the Rev. Mr. Dunning, to Miss
Mary C. Seymour, eldest daughter of W. O.
Seymour, Esq , of South Norwalk. The
happy pair have taken up their residence in
' Wilton where a large circle of their friends
wish them all happiness possible.
The annualmeeting of the Congregational
society will be held in the church on Saturday
next at one o'clock.
It is rumored that Mr. Thomas F. Gilbert
and Miss Augusta Knapp are to be married
this afternoon. .
Wilton Division S. of T. still maintain
their organization and expect to make their
meetings interesting by a. course of lectures
by the members.
The poem in St. Nicholas entitled the
“Miller of Dec," and which was so well de-
claimed by Master Charles Olmsted at the
Congregational church on Friday evening,
was written by Miss Eva L. Ogden, who, we
fie happy to say, is a resident of Wilton.
Miss Ogden has been an earnest and faithful
student and well deserves her literary success.
Master Duncan Merwin is spending his
vacation at home. _
' The Hon. Charles Cannon was the subject
of a severe assault on Christmas evening.
Mr. Cannon went to a room where one of his
employees was sitting and asked him to do
something connected with the farm. The
man made an abusive rejoinder and instantly
sprang at Mr. Cannon and struck him a blow
in the face. The assault was repeated twice,
and but for the prompt interference of a by-
stander the result might have been more
serious. The assailant was promptly arrested
and taken before Justice Fancher, who placed
him under $500 bonds to appear before the
Superior Court, in default of which he was
taken to Bridgeport yesterday morning.
Grocer Rockwell’s horse ran away yester—
day morning in South Wilton and succeeded
in getting over a stone fence with the wagon.
No damage was done. J onn 'FAx.
RIDGEFIELD.
A severe snow storm was ushered in, Sun-
day evening the first of the season.
The prosecution of the violators of the
Liquor Law has caused considerable excite-
ment. Most of them settled up without
going to trial, one against whom the evi-
dence was slight, stood trial before Justice
Scott and was acquitted. If any think that
this’will cause an end of the liquor traffic,
we fear they are doomed to disappoint-
ment. '
Christmas was passed very' much as usual.
The Episcopal, Methodist and Roman
Catholic churches were'tastefuiiy trimmed
with evergreens. The Sunday School of the
M. E. church gave an entertainment Christ-
mas Eve, at which time “The Magi and the
Messiah" a Christmas service was given. It
was one of the most pleasing and instructive
exhibitions ever given at such an occasion.
The Episcopal Sunday School gives an
entertainment Thursday evening, and the
Congregational Friday evening.
Rev. Mr. Merwin of Wilton, preached" in
the Congregational Church, last Sunday.
. Rev. E. B. McLean of Lynnficld, Mass, will
preach next week, the week of prayer will
be observed.
Mr. Nathan Lounsbury and wife ' are
spending holiday week in New York.
The Library new numbers one thousand
volumes. Subscriptions for a new year is
now solicited. A good New Year's present
would be a years subscription.
This is the week for regret for broken
promises, and the formation of good resolu—
tions. May the former serve the purpose
only to make the latter more sacredly kept.
Divorces have recently been granted to
David W. Ehlc from Johanna K. E1119, 0‘

l
tion, was celebrated here with becoming
rites and ceremonies. Elaborate preparations
in evergreens and musical programmes had
been made, and all things worked together
in churches and private residences to remind
true believers of the importance of the fer-
‘- tival. Christ church was prettily dressed
with ground pine festoons and emblems, and
its light colored interior smiled in response
to the joyfulncss of the assembled worship-
pers. Thercis an eloquence in evergreens
placed in sanctuaries by delicate bands
which speakes with more force than written
Words. So with natural flowers at the altar.
To say that Christ church looked splendid
therefore is all sufficient. Services were
held Christmas Eve, and Christmas day,
when good sermons were preached and fine
nuisic performed 'by a well trained choir, the
attendance at each being large. This
(Tuesday) evening, is Holy Innocents, and
the Sunday School children will be made
happy with gifts of books, confectionery and
bric-a-brac. The school numbers about one
hundred.
Memorial church was, as it always is on
such occasions, tastefully arrayed for the
grand festival,-and its numerous members
vied with each other in doing their best for
the common joy. Everybody belonging to
the church was happy. Outside this sacred
pile nature has for years assisted climbing
vines which now cling to it with strong
affection. Within, yearly, and 'this year
particular, art, and a good deal of energy has
helped adorn one of the most lovely struc—
tures. Its ecclesiastical lines feel the touch
of its friends, and seemed from the light of
its colored windovlrs to wish “A Merry
Christmas” to all. There was a joyful
service, attended by a joyful and very large
congregation Christmas Eve, and a full ser-
vice with communion Christmas day. The
musical selections at each were appropriate
and well rendered. .
The ladies of Assumption church had not
forgotten one of the greatest events of the
year, as the tase displayed in the arrange-
ment of evergreens testifies. The expended
labor of many days brought the reward of a
beautifully trimmed church. Christmas was
kept in its truest sense, if the vast throngs in
attendance both Saturday and Sunday are an
indication.
The presence of greens hung in appropri-
ate places in the Congregational and Method-
ist churches, the people who went there to
worship, and the words of wisdom to which -
they listened made it apparent ,that the
thoughts of the best element in this commu-
nity are turned in the right direction.
At almost every private house Santa Claus
had visited or been represented leaving the
evidences of his thoughtfulness. What
some people call the solemnities of Sunday,
coming as they did so soon after the cheer
and freedom which a day ..like Christmas
affords, were turned to joy.
Officers for Temple Lodge, No. 65, F. and
.A- M., were elected at the annual communi-
cation Thursday evening, as'follows: W. M.,

Mr. James C. Lees, President of the new
Cotlon Manufacturing establishment, says the
company will put in $18,000 worth of new
machinery made to order in Lowell,
Whitinsville and other places in Massachu-
setts, and that operations will begin on or
before March 1st, 1881. The capital invested
in $25,000, of which Mr. Lee’s owns one
half, and Messrs; Alvord. and Robert Lees,
one quarter each. The' building is being
erected by Mr. Thomas R._Lees the veteran
manufacturer and will be rented by him to
the new company, be having no fhrthcr in-
terest in it. It will be three stories of stone
and one of brick, and very near the size of
that recently destroyed. by fire. The
location of ,this mill {and the water
privilege connected with it make it one of
the most valuable in the State. The enter.
prising‘young gentlemen who are about to
start operations anew, there have had offers
of large amounts of capital to enable them to
set out under the best of auspices, all of
which they declined, preferring the control
of the business among themselves, have first
rate prospects of success, and the town of
Westport will be likely to reap substantial
benefit from their venture.
It is a satisfaction to know that the worthy
poor in town were remembered by those who
have it in their power to bestow gifts which
tend to make Christmas really merry and
New Years happy.
Sunday was one of those stormy, raw days

GREENWICH.
Greenwich people are considering the
matter of a new charter for their Borough,
modeled on that of Birmingham. Among
the new features proposed is one giving all
owners of property in the Borough, whether
residents or non residents, a right to vote in
all matters relating to taxation and expend—
itures. It is also proposed to provide a
registry list, and that only those legally
registered be allowed to vote. The charter
is naturally meeting with considerable oppo-
sition.
The Borough folks have been much ex—
ercised, also, over the Water supply for
public use, and fire depastmcnt’matters.
Some months ago a fire company was orga-
nized, an engine and a lot of hose purchased,
a “double turreted” engine house built, an
extinguisher provided, etc., at considerable
expense._ Now the Borough is asked to take
the public water for fire purposes, and to
pay $1,000 per year for the same. Then it
is found that the old hose will not .fit the
hydrants and would not stand the pressure if
it did, so that some $2,000 worth of new
hose seems absolutely necessary. New hose
renders necessary the purchase of a new
jumper for transporting the same, and alto-
gether many of. the economically inclined
citizens feel discouraged. ThejBorough now
has water, hydrants,cngiue and house, but in
case of fire allvwould be nearly useless for
the want of hose. But then it was always
thus; it people will have Borough sthcy must
pay Borough expenses,

Things calling themselves men, reeled
through our streets in a state of bstly in-

us,~that a day so fraught with sacred mem-
ories, must be so described. How much
better it would be if all would hold the day
in sacred memory, and unite in praising the
great creator for his goodness in sending a
Saviour into the world to redeem and save
lost mankind ; to render praise for the
many mercies of the year, for happy homes,

The work of the Faith Mission of Bridge-
port during the past year was as follows:
457 meetings were held, there has been
nearly 600 signers to the Temperance pledge,
and over 230 persons have given testimony
of being saved. 314 families have been
visited; 2,305 tracts distributed; 471 persons
have been induced to attend church; 29
books lent; 21 Biblesgiven away, besides a
large quantity of other religious periodicals
of which no account is made. This is
indeed a good showing ; it is a noble work.
People who scoffed at‘thc work of the Mis-
sion .a year ago, are now forced to acknowl-
edge that it has been productive of great
good. Mrs. Smith devotes her whole time
