Capt. Chas. Selleck has returned from his
visit to his daughter at Bedding, Conn.,wherc
ire saw that new grandchild.
The health of Rev. Dr. Spencer, of Trinity
chapel, is so precarious that he has to forego
the-services usually held in Union Chapel on
the fourth Sabbath of the month. His place
is to be supplied by Rev. Mr. Selleck or his
assistant. . -

WILTON.
h‘iiirnbrs are gloomy over the poor pros—
pects for a crop of corn.
”Who will be our next town ofllcers ?" is a
question that is being covertly agitated.
The Rev. Mr. Thompson, in addition to his
preaching, sets a good example in the way of
a well kept lawn in front of the parsonage
premises. . _
Mr. Edward Olmstead, regardless of the
land league agitation”, is about to become a
landlord.
' Mr. George F. Quintard, of South Wilton,
deserves special mention for the transforma—
tionhe has wrought in the property which
he lately purchased. The trees and hedges,
have been trimmed, the buildings repaired
and painted, and now Mr. Quintard has one
of the prettiest places in that locality.
Mr. Oscar Davenport is building ahousc
on some of his Danbury property. .
Mr. Launt Thompson, the well—known
sculptor, was in town last week as the guest

, Several of our young men have organized
a “Literary Association" for literary im-
provement, debate, etc. A number of meet-

dent; W. S. Foote, secretary.
The summer boarder now flitteth home-
ward.
The library of the Congregational Sunday-

, The tax payers are not overjoyed at the
decision in the “Weston sheep case,” the ex-
penses of which will be nearly $400. This
case, which could at one time have been set-
tled for $35, was tried before a justice and
his decision, which was adverse to Wilton,
was afiirmed by the Court of Common Plans.
The case was then taken to the Court of'Er-
mm on a constitutional question and there
decided adversely to Wilton. The dog is a
noble animal and useful in his sphere, bht it
must be admitted on all hands that iuis rath-
er expensive to feed him on mutton.
We hear there are quite a number of un-
registered dogs in town and there is a good
chance for some grand juror to earn two dol-
lars for each complaint, and obtain as a
chrome the undying hatred of dog owners.
As a rule men seem to think a great deal of
their dogs, for you may half kill one of their
children and not much is said, but shake a
stick at some homely our and the owner will
fairly boil over with indignation. We have
no objection to men keeping dogs, but the
wool raising industry of Connecticut will
never thrive unless better protected than
heretofore. The last Legislature may have
been wise in its day and generation,but when
it reduced the dog tax, its wisdom, in the
opinion of the writer, took a very questions:
able shape. ‘

‘ ere has been a good deal said of late
concerning sharks in local waters, and the
dangers to which bothers are exposed by the
presence of these marine monsters. The
average reader has questioned the seriousness
of the warnings given by the press in the
absence probably of an opportunity to see
and study sharks-and has accepted the same
as a huge‘joke calculated to play on the
feelings of the credulous. But, while sharks
are most wary, approaching as they do by
stealth rarely giving a note of warning, they
can be toyed with and caught with as much
ease and safety as any fish. This was proven
last Tuesday by Messrs. E. S. Wheeler, J11,
and Oscar Smith. who, in the yacht Whisper
proceeded to the bay west side of Goose
Island, distant three miles from this place.
weather, it had been reported sharks were
daily sporting, and they designed to test the
practicability of capturing some of them.
Encouraged by the exploit of Dr. Keyes of
Saugatuck, who last week caught an eight
feet shark in a bass net of two inch meshes,
they set out provided with spears, harpoons
and large books, such as are used for codflsb,
bait. lines, etc, for the fishing grounds.
Their project being as novel as it was new,
operations could not be conducted by any
given rule, indeed they knew nothing about
sharks further than what they had read in
the story books, that sharks sicze and swallow
young persons, who, imprudently and against
their parents instructions go in to the water
to swim. Nothing dauntcd, they hove anchor
in the bay, cast their bait and waited the
arrival of game. It soon came in the shape
of a great school of sharks, pioneered by one
bolder than his fellows,surging through plac-
id;waters. In an instant a harpoon was sent
with uncrring aim at the monster, striking
amidships. A terrible splashing and struggle
for liberty followed, but the boys, taking
the precaution to pass their line attached
to the harpoon ashore, hauled upon it with
all their strength presently secured their
prize, which was seven feet in length by
actual measure. In like manner two other
sharks, making three in all were captured
within the space of an hour. The adventure
of Messrs. Wheeler and Smith, and their
success, has inspired belief that shark
catching, like trolling for blue fish, may be
indulged with pleasure and satisfaction.
0n the 18th day of February last, Charles
E. Hoyt, of this place. aged about 20 years,
enlisted for five years as a soldier in the reg-
ular army. He was assigned to the 14th
Regiment, U. S; Infantry, Col. Theodore
Swarm commanding, stationed at David’s
Island, New York harbor. Everything went
well with the new recruit until th€6th of
last June, when he asked for and was grant-
ed leavc of absence for six hours. He imme-
diately left the Island, but where he went or
what he did is not known further than his
failure to report at headquarters when his
period of leave had expired. Search vv'aa ia-
stitutcd, but Hoyt was not heard of till the
end of the second day, when Deputy Sheriff
Fred. Kemper, of this place,was notified that
the truant might be likely to appear in the
region of his old Westport haunts. That om-
cer accordingly kept a lookout and the morn-
ing of the 12th, captured the gentleman and
brought him forth from ambush in the rear
of Lees‘ Cotton Factory, where he had been
for some days luxuriating in a kind of “go as
you please” retirement; When questioned
as to why he had taken a step so rash, his
offense being nothing less than desertion, he
could only reply by saying he was tired of
army life and wanted a change, or words to
that effect. In company with the officer he
made tracks to David’s Island again, remain-
ing in the guard house there until Monday of
last week when, in court martial, presided
over by Judge Advocate C. A. Johnson, he
was tried and convicted on charges of deser—
tlon. Sentence, which is likely to be im~
,prisonment for two years, was postponed for
three weeks. Hoyt. who is a man of some
intelligence, will pay a dear penalty for his
cheap indiscretion. '

Dr. John Hall, in his :reecnt address to
the grad dates of Wells (Female) College at
Aurora, New York, said : “He would have
woman educated to be herself an educator.
First, an educator at home. In illustration
of this point he spoke of the opportunities
which a young lady graduate has to direct
her younger brothers and sisters at home, as
well as her influence to restrain an older
brother who may be prone to do things not
entirely approved by his parents. Then
whcu this young lady, who may be called
Miss ch, has an opportunity to change her
name, she may become, for-instance, Mrs.
Gladly. Her power tb educate will, later,
he required among her own little ringlet-
browcd children. Send them to school?
No. But when they are between two and
four years old teach them submission to con-
stitutcd authority, punctuality, regulation,
veracity, self-control, usefulness and careful-
ness. and then they will become men and
women with these traits ingrained into their
very characters. In the second place, a
woman should be a. diplomat. When Miss
Joy becomes Mrs. Gladly she will, find an
abundance of opportunity to keep the royal
family of Joys on pleasant terms, and she'
will need to be a diplomat to get and secure
perfect peace with the imperial family of
the Gladlys, In the third place, a woman
should be trained in finance. It is said that
marriage makestwo into one, but it often
rcquires.somc years to find out which is the
one, and if .pcrchance the woman is to bear
that title, she should understand finance well
enough to make her purchases. There might
be a new degree established with much
propriety. It should be called M. E. D. F.,
Mistress of Education, Diplomacy and Fi—
nance. The reason should be exercised as
well’as the memory cultivated. Lately, the
conscience must be trained, and taught that
law is the chain that binds Creator and
creature together.

“James A, Garfield is a Gentle-
man.” ‘
New York Tribune.
Sm: Your editorial of this morning on
“The President‘s Character" recalls to my
mind what I thought a rather pretty com—
bplinient to General Garfield at the Conven—
tion in Chicago whiehlrcsulted in the nomi—
nation for the Presidency. It will be re—
membered that feeling at that time was very
high. The Convention had for days pre—
sented a scene of unparalleled excitement.
When the thirty-sixth ballot was reached the
Garfield ovation began. Of the twelves votes
of Connecticut eleven votes were announced
for Garfield, and other States were following.
The Grant forces, as all know, were immov-
able, but most of the others Were giving
‘way. There were enough “stragglers,”
however, to invest the vote for a while with
some doubt, and of the ten or twelve
thousand people in the hall everybody was
keeping an account of the votes as they were
announced.
ventlon and on every ballot those 44 votes
had béen cast and counted with unfailing
regularity. On thethirty-sixth ballot. how-
ever, for obvious reasons. the call of that
State was responded to by the statement that
“Ohio casts 43 votes for James A. Garfield.”
Immediately a lady on the platform, in atone
of much feeling and regret, exclaimed : “One
vote short l That’s to bad. What does it
mean ?" Robert Iugornoil, who was standing
near, quickly firespondcd "It means ma’am,
that James A Garfield is a gentlgnan."
I think it will be universally a mittcd that
in those tow words General Garfield’s char-
acter was neatly epitomized.

Preserving Grapes for Winter.
As Autumn approaches, wereceivc a num-
ber of inquiries as to the method of preserv-
ing grapes for winter use. It is not general-
ly understood that there is as much differ-
ence in grapes, with respect to their keeping,
as there is with other fruits. No one would
expect to keep Early Harvest apples or Bart-
let pears for the holidays, and it is so with
the most generally cultivated grape, the Con-
cord ; it cannot be made to keep in good con -
dition long after it is fairly ripe. With other
varieties it is different. There are some 10-
calities where that grand old grape, the Ca-
tawaba, can still be cultivated with success,
and, where this'is the case, one need hardly
to look for a better variety. The Isabella still
succeeds in some places, and is a fair keeper.
Better than either, if not the best of all
grapes, the Iona gives good crops in some
localities, as does the Diana. Where either
of these, the Isabella, Catawaba, Ions, or
Diana, can be grown, there is no difficulty in
keeping them until the first ofthe New Year
or later. The grapes are allowed to ripen
fully; they are picked, and placed in shallow
trays, in which they remain in an airy room
to “cure." The operation of curing consists
merely in a sort of wilting. by which the
skin becomes toughened, and will not break
when the fruit is packed. The clusters, when
properly “cured,” are packed in boxes, usu-
ally of three or five pounds each. The bot-
tom of the boxes is open, the large clusters
laid in carefully,and smaller bunches packed
in such a manner that it will require a mod
crate pressure to bring the cover (or,propcrl_v
the bottom), of the boxto its place, where it
is nailed down. The pressure used is such
that when the top of the box is opened, the
grapes next to it are found to be somewhat
flattened. The fruit must be pressed in such
a manner that it cannot shake in travel, and
this can only be with grapes the skin of
which has been toughened by being properly
cured. If clusters were placed in the box as
they come from the vines, and subjected to
the needed pressure, the skin would crack
around the stems. liberating the juice, and
the whole would soon pass into decay. To-
wards Christmas and New Years, many tons
of the varieties we have named come‘ to the
New York market in excellent condition.
New varieties of grapes. of excellence, have
recently been introduced, but we have yet to
learn as to their keeping qualities.
Concord and related varieties, the skin is too
tender to alllow of long keeping, and it does
not seem to toughen in the curing process.
Still, with these, the season for home use
may be considerably prolonged. The late
Mr. Knox found that he could keep the Con-
cord for some time by placing the thorough-
ly ripened clusters in baskets or boxes, with
the leaves of the vine below and between
them. We do not know how long this will
keep these grapes, but we saw some in ex.
ceilcnt condition several weeks after the bar-
vest was over. Those who set out grape
vines should be aware that no one variety
will meet every requirement, and that the

revivals the last winter and spring. In nearly
each case these revivals were connected with

organized by me the past year received aid‘

We shall never too much admire the large
scope and grandeur of Christian thought
which, a little more than half a. century ago,
led to the organization of those great evan-
gelical, intensely aggressive, un- sectarian,
“American" religious societies, such as the
American Board, the American Bible Soci—
ety, the American Tract Society, the Amer-
ican Home Missionary Society,tho American
and Foreign Christian Union, the American
Sunday School Union, and others. The
thought, the awakened impulse, the practical
enthusiasm, were magnificent. Some of them
have indeed, since lost their denominational
characteristic. We may not object trfcbange
which the changed circumstances have made
expedient. But there are some of these
“American" societies, which are union
societies still. Let us rejoice that it is so.
The American Sunday School Union is one
of these. There is no missionary or olher
Christian societies in the land whichdias a
plaincr call to be, than the American Sunday
School Union, It has been in existence over
half a century. It never had stronger reasons
for continuance, and for a large support, than
it has now—Advance.

With the l‘
Congregational Singing.
In the New Euglandcr for July, Rev. G.
H. Griffin, of Milford, has an interesting ar-
ticle “Concerning Sacred Music, Ancient and
modern,” In which are some very practical
and sensible thoughts upon Congrega-
tional singing. His talent and good taste in
music qualify him to speak upon the subject.
He quotes WW. II. W. Beecher as saying:
“I always feel that tr church which does not
sing has hard sledding. Sleigh riding and
no bells! Think of it. A church that does
not sing is like a spring without any flowers.
Of all the world. it church that has four sing-
ers! A thousand people sitting 'downl A
thousand pairs of ears listening, and four
months.” .
figRev. Dr. E. 1’. Parker is quoted: ‘fAs a
strenuous and uncompromising advocate of
Congregational singing, I still insist upon the
blessed privilege of listening to such music
as congregations cannot sing together; of
being sung to, of sitting still and quiet under
the spell of a music that gives new meaning
to holy words, gains access to the heart by a
sweet stealth, and works its miracles of heal-
ing and consolation in the affections."
. Mr. Griffin questions the propriety of in-
troducing to the worship of the sanctuary
the assistance of a band of brass and stringed
instruments. The sharp clear tones of a
comet may be of advantage in keeping a
great congregation up to time and pitch;
but beyond this, with the king of instru-
ments, the organ, which combines the power
and variety of an orchestra, no accompani—
ment is necessary. He refers to Mr. Spur-
geon’s great chorus of the “common people”
led by neither choir or organ, but simply by
the voice of a precentor as being as fine an
example of true congregational singing as be
ever heard.
-A multitude of worshipers will heartly
respond an emphatic approval when he says:
Among the absolute requisitesrfor auefiicient
church'cboir, next to good vocal powers and
personal piety, must ': be mentioned that
training which insures felicitous' empres-
sz'on of tlw sentiments and distinct articulation
of the language. .
Those who have heard the singing of the
J ubilce company from the South will agree
with the statement that many of our leaders
of church music have yet something to learn
from these comparatively untutored children
of .sang. Their power of sustaining long
drawn tones in pianissimo passages, is only
equalled by their admit-able enunciation. of
the words while retaining a distinct utterance
both of the harmony and melody.
He gives the following published statement
-of the choir of Christ church, Troy, N. Y.,
as the ideal : “Its number is forty-three.
Average attendance the past year, forty.
The esprit dc corps is remarkable. Mem-
bers would rather attend rehearsal than a
social entertainment. The choir is noted for
its devotional spirit. Its members will not
brook any unseemly conduct during public
worship. They regard themselves, not as a
separate organization from the congregation,
hired to do the’singing, but as taking part in
the worship." .
“One of their great aims in rendering all
kinds of music,whether in plain hymns, sim-
ple chants, or more elaborate anthems, in
divtr’nctly as to have the words intelligible to
the congregation and also in singing hymns,
to make the music so full and hearty that
the worshippers below will feel like joining
in the singing."
We know whereof we affirm in -saying.
many tried and grieved pastors will heartily
unite with him in the exclamation: May
the great Head of the Church in much
mercy speedily give us an increase of such
choirs!
To his notice also of the and amount of
rubbish introduced into the department of
sacred music represented by our Sabbath
schools, and his hope of a healthy reaction
in favor of a more healthy, sensible and sub-
stantial class of song, many will heartily rev
spond in approval.
We have given place to these suggestions
because they touch a point of vital spiritual
interest in a most important feature of public
worship-'2. poitit upoh which many a pastor
groans in sadness, and yet conscious of the
proverbial sensitiveness and self-conceit of
church choirs he endures in silence witch'-

O
Mortimer Collins’s Little Friend.
From The Spectator.
Collins loved to notice and make friends
with the birds and “small deer" that lived
around him, and often a pleasant intercourse
was carried on between them. Like Thoreau,
though in alcss degree, he knew how to make
friends with the feathered folk that built
their nests in the trees, and the intimacy
seems'to have proved agreeable on both sides.
Here is a bit of cheerful gossip about a winter
guest: - _
“I have made a very pleasant acquaintance
—a young and vivacious person, musical and
garrulous, grateful for small kindnesscs, and
never a bore. He is, to avoid the mysterious
a robin-retlbreast,-—a young cock, whose
waistcoat has not yet attained the fullest
scarlet, nor his song its complete music.
There are lots of them on my lawnpin va-
rious stages of adolescence; but thislittle
beauty got into my book-room one morning,
and flew in a fright against the window
when I entered, and fell on the floor, half-
stunned. I took him up got him to drink a
little water, and put him on the grass. He
soon recovered, and now he-follows me all
over the place. He waits to welcome me
the first thing in the morning. He perches
on my knee as I-sit writing on the lawn, and
twitters out a sweet, l0w song. He is very
inquisitive about. everything new that comes
out when we encamp under the trees. exam-
ining vwrk baskets, writing baskets, straw
hats, with an evident thirst for knowledge.
He comes on my writing-table to pick up
crumbs, then suddenly darts away in a hurry
to seize something zn-rre enticing——n fut
spider, or a daddy longlegs, or a butterfly.
There is something curious in the friudship
of.this feathered atom born out of grati~
tudc." .
Mrs. Collins adds in a note: “He continued
to be friendly until the spring of the {0210“}—
ins: year, and spentthe greater part of the
winter in the house, thereby causing great
jealousy to two other robins. who were also
favorites, who used to watch for him out of
the house and attack him."
