CITY OF WEST NORWALK.
Our efficient school district auditor, Mr.
Daniel Knapp, is suffering fromva bruised
limb, a heavy stone coming in contact with
it very unceremoniously. .
The welcome rain had the‘effeet to keep
many of the scholars and teacher's from at-
tending the sabbath school at union chapel.
Pleasure seekers from the City and Borough
were mostly kept at home, a few from 'the
City ventured out to see how it would
seem to ride without being annoyed with
dust.
Mr. Legrand Johnson, who was so seriously
injured at Whistleville ten days since, is im-
proving very slowly. He has been taken
from his mattress on the floor, and placed
upon a bed. After the fatigue of such a
change he has rested quite well, but he will
feelthe effects of his wound probably, while
he lives.
The Bridge across Five Mile River, has
been thoroughly repaired by contractor A.
B. Hathaway, and is now in good condition,
but should be widened 20 feet or more to
accommodate the large and increasing travel
to the Borough, and Brighton of the East.
All the bridges (as well as roads), in this
vicinity need immediate attention.‘
_ Our Seminary of learning has secured the
finishing touch, and now the blinds are as
red asfire, and much more glossy.

terest in the Congregational Church.’ The

men and others in relation to the proposal
to purchase a steam fire engine for the bor-

firms the impression that the spread of the

the murder of Ebenezer Marshall, was tried
in Bridgeport, Tuesday. A plea of guilty

encedzto a term of two years in State’s

at the time when the crime was committed
will now feel none the less indignant at the
, ridiculous smallness of the sentence—Har-

been since Mr. \V. E. Nash became post-
master, to No. 1, same building, on the
wharf next the village draw. Capt. H. P.
Burr, the new postmaster, who received his
commission from the Department Tuesday,
has so arranged the interior of his building
as to induce belief that the new quarters will
be superior to the old. The office was
thronged in the evening by such as had been
waiting for the change, some of whom, till
then, doubting the statements in the GA-
znrrn and other papers relative therto. A
better location for the office could not have
been chosen, as everybody crosses the bridge
and everybody going or coming feels it
necessary to look into the office, and wants
to do so often without‘ taking extra steps.

eldest son, Mr. Algernon T. Burr, as first
assistant, and Miss J cssie Keeler, second as-
sistant, at present acting as clerk. .

Thirty years ago at the burial of the late
Edwin Wheeler, there was a performance
rather out of the usual line. His remains
were taken from the coffin in presence of the
multitude, borne into the vault, and in ac-
cordance with a request made by deceased,
were wrapped In a. winding sheet, placed in
a stone sarcophagus and hermetically sealed.
The coffin was then returned to the under-
taker. Mrs. Wheeler stipulated with her
husband t'hat, if she died after he died,a
similar disposition should be made of her
remains, and at her burial on Monday last,
the covenant was carried out to the letter.

built last year on a sort of quagmire overrun
with trees and bushes, many said malaria

lawful husband, Searies of Lewisboro, and
six days later married Burt. In accordance
with these facts it was decided by Justice
Gilbert that there was no case, since legally;
there was no such person as “Mary M. Gil-

and void, and having obtained a. divorce from

libertyjto enter into other matrimonial rela-

Go to the Fairs?
The term “fair” may not always be the
most appropriate one for the autumn shows.
Exhibition is a better word, but far less fre-
quently used. Not only should the farmer
go to the fair, but he ought to take his fam-
ily with him. The" going, simply, is not
enough. All members of the househoId
should make it a point to take something to
exhibit. One of the boys may take a fine
colt, and if it is his own, there will be all
'more pride in obtaining a prize; Another
son may have a yoke of steers for the
exhibition. As for the girls there are a
thousand different things that can be made
with the needle that will grace the walls of
the “Woman’s Paviliion,” or the rooms of
the Household Department. Even so com-
mon a thing as bread may be baked with
special care, and will attract chh attention.
Then there are the Zgarden vegetables, pota-
toes—a new kind, perhaps—pumpkins,
squashes, etc., and the products of the farm
and orchard. It is not wise to leave all these
things at home, and then criticise the ex-
hibition because you can say, -“We have
better things at home." To go and take
things to the fair is not enough. The exhi-
bition should become a school at which all
exhibitors and visitors make. a study of the
implements, cattle, poultry, fruit, grain, etc,
that are there. A farmer may owg his suc-
cess in growing some crop to the knowledge
gained at a town fair. The farmer that has
areal pride in' the farm will take great in-
terest in the local fair, and will exhibit the
best products of farm life in the boys and
girls, who are interested exhibitors at the
fairs. The day at the fair should be a social
one, every one making .it a point to meet
many neighbors and others with a pleasant
word. It is a place for asking and answer-
ing questions, and the persons who goes
through the exhibition without opening his
mouth, is certainly not getting all the good
that is within his reach. It’ls our advice
that all go to the fair—all take something to
show, and all will find out as much as possi-
ble about all the various exhibits that are
made by others. In this way the day at the
fair will be a'most creditable one. It may
be that a premium will not be taken by
every one, but the prize money is onlya
small part of,tho value that an exhibition
'may receive from a fair, that has been used
as a means for a better understanding of the
products of the farm, garden and household.

Quite a sensation was created at a circus
at Marquette, Mich., last week. In the not
where a circus rider, disguised as a drunken
tramp, falls into the ring and wants to ride a
horse, the ringmaster threw the drunkard
out, and with much seeming indignation
-asked why' there were no policemen around
to keep order. A German policeman, who
was standing by, and who knew the man
belonged to the circus, felt indignant at
having the police abused, IO he took the
alleged drunkeh man, and, notwithstanding
the circus people tried to explain the circum-
stance, he was hurried off to the lockUp,
and the act was left out. After the show
the propretor went to the jail and got the
performer out and abused the policeman a
little for being so ofiicioul. The policeman
said : “Veil, a choke is a choke, but van a
man zay vere is de bolice, and vy don’ddey
arrest dot drunk man, den de Marquette
bolice is in dot vicinity, and don’d you forget
it, Mr. Circus, I bed you.”

A new cave has-been discovered near Har-

Lauray and Mammoth caves. It has been
but partially explored, but wonderful stories
are told about it. The entrance is near the

feet from the surface is a vast hallway, lead-
ing to a large number of moms. The persons
who entered it claim to have explored it for
over a mile, and saw no sign of an end.

Importing Valuable Horses.
At Stoddard’s bonded stables, Nos. 598
and 600 Greenwich street, is a fine lot of
horses which arrived during the present
week. James A Terry, importer and breed-
er of Norman stallions, of River View stock
farm, ‘Nilmington, Ill., arrived from London
on the stea usliip Canada, on Wednesday,
with thirty Norman stallions and one Norman
brood-mare. On the same vess-elwcrc ten
Norman stallions for Powell Brothers, of
Springborough, Penn. ; thirty Cleveland
bays, a favorite coaching breed, and fifteen
Norman stallions for Colonel 'Jordon, of
‘W’avcrly, Iowa; and three Norman stallions
brought here by Charles Humbert, of
Coming, Iowa. The Norman stallions are
all p-nverful animals. They arejmostly pur-
chased at Roucn, Franco, and in that vicin-
ity. The prices paid are much- larger than
three years ago owing to the largely increased
demand; animals that could formerly be
bought for $1,000 now cost double that sum.
There selling-price here ranges from $1,500
to $3,000. The ages of those imported vary
from three to four ytars, although there is
one or two-year-old stallions and one seven-_
year-old in Mr, Perry’s lot. Mr. Perry said
to a reporter of the Tribune yesterday after-
noon:
“1 am one of the pioneer ,importers, hav-
ing brought over my first lot in 1870. I was
the second man to bring Norman stallions
to these stables. During the twelve years I
have been engaged in importing horses I
have brought about 150, and never lost but
one horse on the ocean. On this last trip
over on the Canada six horses died belonging
to their owners. 01' these one was a Nor-
and the others were Clydes. I had some
horses as sick as any of those that died, but
mine are all right. D) horses get seasick?
Why, yes, I suppose so, at the beginning of
the vbyage. What do I do for them? Give
them salt water to drink. There isn’t much
‘book larnin" in that sort of treatment but
it cures them. My stallions don’t. understand
a word of English yet, and I have only Eng-
lish-speaking grooms in charge of them.
They are intelligent and tractable,thougll and
it will only take them about three months to
learn English.” '
Mr. Perry says there are now about twenty
men or firms regularly engaged in importing
these horses. The present. year a great many
more horses have been bought in Europe by
Americans than ever before, but mostly by
wealthy gentlemen for their own private
stables. Mr. Perry’s stallions will be taken
west to-nigbt, six horses in a car.
On the Anchor-la, which arrived on Wed-
nesday, were ,ten splendid Clydesdales, for
Powell Brothers, of Springsborough, Penn.,
which will average a ton each. An unusu-
ally large Nor'man stallion, with brown body
and four white feet, weighing 2,100 pounds,
and belonging to Powell Brothers, was ex-
hibited in the street outside Stoddard’s sta-
bles, yesterday afternoon, The firm are about
to import 150 of the best Clydes, which they
.will purchase in Scotland.
On the steamship Denmark; which sailed
from London on Wednesday for New York,
were 160 Norman stallions, the most of them
belonging to N. W. Dunham, of Wayne,
Dunage county, Ill.

been a sufferer for more than a year with a
refractory liver, I was induced to mix Hop
Bitters with the sea gale,and have found the
tincture a glorious result * * * I have
been greatly helped by the Bitters, and am
not afraid to say so.
Yours without a struggle,
JOSH BILLINGS.

During the last seven months there have

The $100,000 fire in Philadelphia Sunday,

Cornelius Vanderbilt’s dinner at Newport,

It was excursion day at Block Island, and
sbig steamer from New London had de-
posited a load of transient visitors, chiefly
from the back districts. One aged farmer
and his spouse wandered past the clerk’s
desk dining-roomwards, when he hailed
them: “This way to register." The farmer
politely bowed to the clerk and said, in ex-
planatory tones, "I don’t want'anything but
a cup of tea." ’Still the clerk persisted:
“But please register.” The farmer with a
negative interrogative to his wife, “You
don’t want anything but a cup of tea, do
you ?” and to the clerk, “I tell you we don’t
want anything but a cup of tea.” Still the
presistent clerk turned the book toward him,
and thrust the pen into his hand. With an
air f impatient endurance he wrote quickly
an joined his wife in the dining-room. The
clerk turned the book round and read after
he had gone not any name but “Tea and

Hay Fever.
For twenty-five years I have been
severely afflicted with Hay Fever. While
suffering intensely I was induced through
Mr. Tichenor’s testimonial, to try Ely's
Cream Balm. ‘The immediate effect was
marvelous. I have been enabled to perform
my astoral duties without the slightest in-
convenience. Have been exposed to heat,
droughts and dust, and have escaped a return
attack. I pronounce Ely’s Cream Balm a
cure for Hay Fever. WILLIAM T. CARR,

Messrs. Millsjé’o Lucy, Grand Rapids,

Balm for Hay Fever, and experienced great
relief from its use, I most cordially recom-
mend it as the best of all the many remedies
I have tried, Yours &.c , T. B. Jsxxs, Law-

Orders have been just received at the our
shops of the Consolidated road in Hartford,
from the general headquarters of the compa-
ny for ice construction of one hundred new
twenty-ton coal cars of the latest improve-
ments. The flat cars formerly carried but
sen tons, but now, by reason of their being
much more strongly built, iron being used
in many places where wood was used, they
carry just as safely double the old standard
weight. .

The l’erpctuity of Fame.
As the name of the immortal Washington
has been sacredly perpetuated as that of a .
hero and statesman. so also has the fame of ‘
Swayne’s Ointment for skin diseases, de-
scended into perpetuity as the only reliable
remedy in the market, for every character of
skin disorders, and as the reward of well-
deserving merit. Worth and merit go hand-
in-hand. It is useless to contradict the Worth
of this article. - 4131

Dr. T. L. Cuyler beautifully says:
“Happy is the man who can. bring the very
atmosphere of heaven with him whenever
he approaches us l—who acts upon our spir-
its es the May breezes act upon the first
shoots of the tulip and the violet! He is a
bountiful giver. He confers on us light ; he
beams goodness into our souls; he teaches us
patience; he showers on us brotherly kind
ness ; he illustrates for .us faith; he exhibits
the true beauty of meckness; he sheds hope
by his very presence; and his unflinching
bravery has often been an inspiration of valor
to our failing hearts. Next to Christ himself
there is no blessing to the community like a
Christ-like Christian."

’l‘ll l5 00111151201" INSTRUCTION
Includes all branches usually taught in Semina-
rrcs and Schools of thefirst rank. The “Common
Branches,” however, are given prominence, as
forming the “essentials” of a sound education,
and the too rapid pomotion into advanced studies
19 curelully guarded against- as seriously marring
the pupil‘s true progress. It will be the conscien-
trons endeavor of the teacher to secure to the
pupils the admntugesul a thorough practical and
ornamental education, and no opportunity will be
neglected to inspire in the schoolnm carnestidcsire
for knowledge. During the ensuing your, acer-
tltm and liberal portion of time will be devoted to
It‘locufiomtry Lessons, Readings and Recitations;
nndeach pupil drilled in correct pronunciation,
distinct utteranceaml natural expression as being
necessary to the accomplished reader. Lumbcrt’s
Anatomical l’lntes will be used in the Physiology
classes. To Mathematics, English Composition,
and Rhetorical CXerciscs. special attention is
given as the discipline and practical bencfltsof
these branches are important in all spheres ol'lif'e.
PRIMARY DEPARTMENT.
A large, well-lighted room supplied with black-
boards, and handsome new maps, 15 set apart for
the smaller pupils. Children from four to ten
years of ago-will be received in this department
and carefully and lovingly taught such fundamen-
tal knowcdge as their minds can grasp. In addi-
tion to this, they will receive daily instruction in
Singing; and as such drills have been found es-
pecially attractive and profitable to the little ones,
Concert Exercises in Reading, Arithemtie, Geog-
raphy and Caltstlrcnies will form part of the every
day work. Three recesses in the open air will be
given darly— two in the morning and one in the
altcrnoon—nnd, at such times a teacher will be
in constant attendance.
MUSIC.
Faithful care is bestowed upon pupils in Music.
Ataste for ClassicalCompositrons will be cultiva-
ted, and regular and careful practice required.
None but excellent instruments are used. so that
the our and touch of the learner may not be im-
paired. A limited number of pupils who wish to
study this branch alone will hencceived, and
cheerful music rooms and line pianos are devoted
to the use of such as desire the advantage of
practice at the school.
