tifully sung at the opening. Rev. J. 0.

course from 2 Sam. iii: 28. The discourse
received the very close attention of the peo-
ple present. Monday afternoon from 2:30 to
3 o’clock the bells were tolled. At 3 o’clock
a large congregation gathered in the Method-
ist Church. Prayer was offered by Rev. W.
J. Jennings. The pastor, Mr. Munson, made
an excellent address, and was followed by
Rev. Mr. Welton, rector of the Episcopal
Church on the Ridge, and Messrs. E. Shaw,
T. Sanford and W. Jennings. The singing
was appropriate and well rendered.

WESTPORT.
A large number of people assembled in
Christ Church, Wednesday morning last, to
witness the marriage of Miss Adelaide Nash,
daughter of E. II. Nash, Esq., to Mr. Elbert
Sipperley of Melrose, New York. The hour
appointed was eight o'clock, but long before
that time many had takep their seats, and
were anxiously waiting. On - their. arrival,
the bridal party were greeted by musw from
the grand ormn. The ceremony was solemn—
ized by the rector of the church, Rev. John
R. Williams, and the bride was given away
by her father, who with his entire family had
gathered about the altar. The new couple in
traveling costume presented a fine appearance
and while the organist gave a wedding march
they passed down the center aisle, receiving
the congratulations of friends. They took
the morning express at South Norwalk for
New York, and after a short wedding trip
will make Melrose their permanent residence.
Many earnest friends wish them happiness
and long life. -
After the polls closed last week Monday,
over three hours Were required by the count-
ers, of whom the undersigned was one, to do
the duty assigned them among the worst
scratched ballots, Norwalk excepted, ever
heard of at a town election. Indeed,’the
voters seemed to have conspired among them-
selves to scratch their ballots into a condition
which mortals, familiar with chirography
could not decipher. They succeeded so well
that in a few instances it took three men to
find out what the writers meant by the char-
acters made in ink and pencil by them. "The
heat was intense, and the crowd very eager
to obtain the result, and taken all in all, the
occasion was one of the most onerous and
disagreeable. Five tickets were in the field.
Of these, five Republican ballots were cast,
'about ten Democratic, and the balance were
regular Democratic and Citizens’-Republican.
Democrats voted for Republicans, and Re-
publicans for Democrats, and the whole busi-
ness was so mixed that skill was required to
determine who had won. It will be seen that
Capt. Burr is the only prominent Republican
elected. Following is the vote :

Jack Frost was King Thursday morning,
and all bowed to his power. A walk through
the village disclosed some curious sights.
Flowers in front door yards had everywhere
been covered with newspapers as a protec-
tion, and many those papers, noticeably
the GAZETTE, bore the dark columns of
mourning for the late President. The frost
marked the close of summer and the bad of
along period of hot fall weather. Monday
evening the thermometer stood at 79, Thurs-
day morning it had fallen to 2S—a difference

NEW CANAAN.
Mrs. Edwin Hoyt and her daughter, Miss
Margelia, spent part of this week in New
York. Miss Hoyt has put herself under a
doctor’s care.
Mr. Wm. L. I‘Varing, the retiring first se-
lectinan, has served the town faithfully for
twenty years in the capacity of Selectman,
and retires from active duty with the thanks
and best wishes of all. The following vote
was passed at the Republican caucus:
“ Voted, That a vote of thanks be extended
to Mr. Wm. L. Waring for faithful services
rendered to the town for the' past twenty
years, as Selectman.” ,
Though Mr. Edwin Hoyt is the largest
and best known nurseryman and fruit grower
in New England, and must of necessity have
much to perplcx and fret him, he stands the
test well, and demonstrates the fact daily
that he is a kind master and a friend to his
many employees. That this is the case ciiu
best be shown by describing a pleasing little
incident which occurred at his residence last
Monday evening. Mr. Hoyt had just finish-
ed supper, and was probably feeling sorry fcr
those who had no supper to finish, when he
was told that some of his workmen desired
to see him in the sitting room.
an unusual hour and‘ place to meet his work-
men, he was surprised and astonished, and
vainly endeavored to solve the mystery ii?
his own mind are he entered their presence.
But kno ing no reason why they should
“strike” or higher wages, or never having
heard them complaim of the fa'r'c served to
them, he was unable to get any idea of the
purpose of their visit. With amazement and
wonder depicted upon every lineament of his
features he made his way to the sitting room
and was still more surprised to find it com—
pletely filled with his employees, and the tall
figure of his foreman, Mr. Edward Buttery,
looming up in the fore-ground. Mr. Buttery
gazed at him for a moment with a somewhat
serious expression. What was the trouble?
As this thought entered the mind of Mr.
Hoyt, and he was about to give it expression,
Mr. B. advanced toward him and presented
him with a handsome black walnut chair, in
the following language :
Mn. Hovr: In behalf of the boys in your
employ, it affords me the utmost pleasure to
present you this chair as a slight token of our
respect for you, and our appreciation of your
uniform kindness to us. Let us assure you
this testimonial is not a more formal compli-
ment paid you as our employer, but a token
of heartfelt respect and esteem, which you
have fairly won by the justice, sympathy and
courtesy which has ever characterized your
dealings with us. We sincerely sympathize
with you and your family in your loss by fire
and hope your future prosperity will soon re.
store the loss. May this chair for years sus-
tain you while in the performance of your
duties. and sometimes be a reminder of the
“boys" when many of us are far away.”
Mr. Hoyt was unable to reply for a few
minutes, but after a while he said, with a
voice made tender and tremulous by this ex-
hibition of kindness and, good will on the
part of his employees, that he thanked them
for their useful and beautiful present and,
heped the friendly relations between them
would continue and increase. He told them
he had always had the welfare of- his work-
men at heart, and hoped by example and
precept, to ive them higher aims in life.
After Mr. oyt’s brief remarks, his aimable
wife invited the entire company to the dining
room where a fine treat. of ice cream and
cake awaited them. .Algother it was an occa-
sion of mucn pleasure and good feeling, and
showed beyond question the friendly feeling
existing between the Hoyt’ri and their em-
ployees.—Messmger.

C
Thomas A. Scott and Gen. Pope.
Col. Scott had occasion to visit Geri. Pope
at his headquarters at New Madrid, Mo.
Gen. Pope is greatly abdictcd to profanity
and violence of manner,and w as particularly
so at the time. Col. Scott entered his head-
quarters with the remark : “I should like to
see Gen. Pope on business.” ’
“See my adjutant t” roared out Pope.
“My business is with Gen. Pope in per-
son.” ~
“Blank, blank your business ; see my ad.
jutant, I tell you.”
“My name is Scott, and—"
“I don’t care whether your name is Scott
or Jones, or Smith, or Brown. See my adju-
tant, blank, blank you.” Q -
“As I was about to say, my name is Scott,
and I wish to see you on Government busi-
ness. I have the honor to be Assistant Sec-
retary of War.”
“Pope’s demeanor underwent a revolution
as he said in the blandest manner: “I beg
your pardon, colonel, I had no intention to
be rude, but there are so many loafers in
camp, and they annoy me so much, that I
am sometimes out out of temper. Be good
enough to take a seat, and have the kind-
ness to inform me of your wishes.” -001.
Scott entered at once upon the business in
hand, making no reference whatever to
Pope’s outrageous behavior, and acting as
though the occurrence had not taken place.

It is related of Mr. Spurgeon that he was

a very great anything.”

“The Domestic Tyrant.”
“The average man,” quoth Mrs. Partington,
“is a weak and irritable domestic tyrant,” and
Mrs. P. is correct. Tyrannical to a fault the
average man will enter the blissful Paradise
of a happy home, scratch himself in fiendish
glee, send the baby into convulsions, and for
what? Why, because he has the Itching
Piles, and is too mean to buy Swayne’s Oint-
ment, which is an infallible cure for the worst
cases of that annoying complaint. 4t38

GENTLEMEN; I desire to, call your atttn-
”tion to the fact that I shall have this Fall the
larfipst stock of dry lumber ever offered in
Of barn covering I have now
on the Erie canal, and due here by the 20111
of this month, '250 thousand feet of 10-inch
boards, dressed and matched in the finest mill
'in the world.
I am also shipping from Bay City, Michi—
gan, 225 thousand feet of narrow barn cover-
ing. This will be planed two sides, matched
in the middle of the edge so ab to turn either
side out, and for onion and tobacco barns
will be unsurpassed. This lumber is all of
the cut of 1880, is dry, sound knotted, and4
filth little or no cap, being manufactured
I am receiving and sell-
from stock boards.
ing as they arrive the shingles from two mills
.to wit: The T. H. McGraw & Co. and; E.
J. Hill brands. 0f each of these I have sold
- during the past few years several millions,
am thoroughly acquainted with them, and
can guarantee them as unexcelled by any
SW5 in the state of Michigan. The lum
bar is soft, free from shake, the shingles are
honestly made, and I will warrant them to
cover 140 feet to the thousand when laid 5
1-2 inches to the weather. I have notfinown
a case where they have not exceeded this.
I have also arranged for a full line of clear
dry 1 a’nd 1 1-4 inch Spruce, 14 feet long, as
well as the ordinary length of 13 feet. In
all grades of lumber used in storing and cur—
BHIIBIIIIIK’S Paper Pattflrns and. ‘ing Onions I aim to keep fully supplied. Am
prepared to make special figures for car load
lots of lumber for tobacco cases, either cut up
or simply surfaced two sides. In Spruce
timber, I keep a full assortment of all usual-
sizes, from 2x3 to 8x8 and 6x10 up to. about
40 feet in length.
Gentlemen, Therois no doubt about the
fact that a person can sometimes go into the
' wholesale market and buy dry lumber, but
as a general rule the way to get it is to buy it,
take good care of it, and season it. However
unpleasant it may be to carry a years stock,
it is the only way I can find to give my cus-
tomers what they want. It is what I have
done for three years, and what I shall con—
tinue to do so long as my trade will justify it.
In all grades of finishing lumber I cffer
stock of Pine, Spruce, Hemlock, Ash, Black
Walnut, Cherry, VVhitewood, and Southern
Pine, from one to three years old.
I will deliver lumber promptly anywhere
that customers will pay for taking it, by rail,
team or vessel, and my facilities for so doing
are as perfect asFI desire. Nine-tenths of my
lumber I buy from the man who cuts down
the tree. I get as near the producer as it is
possible, to get, and deliver the production to
my customers as low as is consistent with a
flair. reasonable profit to myself, to which I
am entitled. In this way I am enabled to
wholesale market as well as to reap some
bencfltfor myself , which I am free to say In
the plimary object.
Inquiries in person or by correspondence
Lwill be promptly attended to. Soliciting a
continuance of the patronage so liberally ex-
tmdesl heretofore, I am respectfully yours,
