Unlon School.
The high school department opens with
encouraging prospects. The number of
pupils is considerably larger than last
year, and the vacancy caused by the res-
ignation of Miss Vinton has been filled by
the appointment of a teacher who has
been employed elsewhere with marked
success.
During the vacation the Franklin street,
buildt’bg has been provided with apparatus
for instant use in case of fire.
We are pleased to notice that by the 8p-
pointmcnt of Miss Mary Day to the Con-
cord street primary department the school
committee has again recognized the fit.
ness of our high school graduates to teach
ill the South Norwnlk schools.
The number of scholars rngistered in
the various departments is somewhat
larger than at the beginning of last year.
We notice as evidence of the continued
confidence in our public school tho great
number of children in attendance whose
parents have sufficient. means to enable
them to patronize private schools if desir-
able.

The flit men had their annual bake this
your at Roton Point and proved a success
both in numbers and in the excellent
manner it was gotten up, the whole thing
being under the nutntlgement of the pro.
prictor of the Point. Mr. A. ll. Ackcrt. llll‘
sisted by Mr. Winters from Fulton Mllr'
ket. New York, who has great experience
in getting up bakes lit Ccnoy Island. The
number of waiters Mr. Ackert hitd “'th
sufficient to attend to all, and so arranged
that there was no confusion wltntcver its
in former years when the fat men have
been in the habit of meeting. There were
but very few of the original association
there, probably owing to the great dis-
tance from the depot and steamboat land—
ing. sad the roads being so very dusty
kept 3. great number away. and another
reason why New Yorkers did not avail
themselves of this Opportunity to be there.
unlike Gregory's Point lloton Point but
no landing sufficient for n steamboat to go
to. therefore hundreds that used to be
present at Gregory‘s Point years before,
could not comfortably got there.oonsqucnt-

favor of Gregory‘s Point. but Helen is for

Camp Duelovv.
Monday company D of this city,
company F of No: walk. company G of
Danbury and company H. of Bethel left
by special train for Camp Rigelow. 10m-
pany D of this city loft with a. full com-
pany—sixty-six men—sud we understand
it is the largest company in the regiment,
and for appearance there are none better.
Company F left with forty-five men and it
is not necessary to say anything about
their appearance. The following if from
our correspondent.
NIANTIC Monday Sept. 5. 1881.
Dmr Stuntman. We arrived in camp at
half past twelve. at which time there was
usiigbt rain falling but it cctisod before
we were called to do any duty, except at
the dinner table at which they all did jus-
tice. The conduct of company F was very
noticeable especially on account of the
absence of intoxicated men during the ride
here and Capt. Belts may well feel proud
of his company. The Fourth regiment
was detailed to escort the Governor from
the depot, where he arrived at seven
o‘clock and was driven for the camp whom
he was received with n suluto from the or
tillery. “'bilo we are writing the quartet
of Co. I“ are giving a. concert in front of
the Captain's tool. which draws together
quite an audience. The order has been
sounded to fall in for roll call which is at
half past nine o‘clock and unless each man
answers to his name he looses his day’s pay
so we think we had better full in.
TUESDAY Monsnvo. The camp is en-
veloped with a heavy fog this morning,
but at this writing the fog is lifting and
the prospects of a. good day are very en-
couraging. The first night in camp is one
that will long be remembered by the boys
of Norwalk. The camp is at this hour lil-
most deserted. except by the guard and
those left in will have a quiet time of it
to-dny.
The concert given by the members of
company I" last night Won for them many
friends and they are fast becoming favori‘
tcs in Camp Bigelovv.

NEW LONDON, Sept. Grit—Tho centen-
nial clebrntion is really a. grand nflair.
and it is estimated that thirty thousand
strangers are in the city. The streets are
throngcd and one hits to force his way lu-
boriously along. The Fourth regiment
loft camp at Ninntic lit 7 and arrived at
the depot at 7:30. According to pro-
gramme they had to wait about five min-
utes for the Second and Third regiments.
They took the train for New London and
arrived at 9:15 and had to wait at the
ferry until 10 o‘clock. The Second crossed
first followed by the Third. The Second
and Fourth marched to a position about
thrcovquartcrs of a. mile or so cast of the
fort. passing it thick growth of young
trees, briars, etc.. sometimes in single file
to n partition about half it mile from the
fort. 11ers more ammunition was issued.
The demand for the surrender was made
and refused. Meanwhile the Third regi-
uicnt made a demonstration on the south-
west side. The battery of artillery had
bombarded the fort from the east by the
men-of wru- lying in the harbor. The
First regiment had passed to a position
northeast of the fort at 12:10. The order
to advance was given. The Second on
the right. the Fourth on the left. The
fields through which they advanced was
probably as rough as they were one litm-
dred years ago. The route of the advance
caused the left wing of the Fourth rcgl~
merit to scale two fences. but they muin~
tuined their line. and when they arrived
near the fort commenced firing. the fort
in the meantime keeping up a murderous
fire from field picccs llllll sinull arms. A f“-
lcr tiring,r several rounds. udvnncing in
lllll‘ four tilncs llllll continuing the firing.
when uu ordcr to clulrgo was given. Tlic
Fourth pressed forward on the southeast
tingle and settled the almost pet-[miidiculur
bank. helping one another up. the colors
being well ahead and entered the fort in
advance of all others. the Third coming
by the flunk nearly at the some moment.
The Second and First arrived within it
minute. till meeting in the fort. The gur-
rison were of course captured with two
companies of Contincntnls. Tho capture
being effected the troops were marched to
the field cast of the fort and partriok of ll
collation. ' *
