The latest freak among the young
folks is the “electric party." It is held
at any house where there is a heavy car—
pet. and the fun consists in shuffling
rapidly over the floor to generate elec«
tricin iii the person and tlii-u discharg-
ing it through the fingers. nose or lips
against some other person or Inctalic ob-
jcct. \Ylieii two well-charged persons
kiss the "snap“ may be heard in the next
room. and when at young man holds his
nose near it gas burner sparks fly from it
and ignite the gas. These parties are
becoming popular. grown people taking
a lively interest Iii them. and when the
lords of the households come Iii late with
red uoscs they say they have been to an
“elt‘f'trtt‘ party.“
Last Friday afternoon S. E. (lluistead
met with a serious accidents! his farm
on the \Volf l‘it Hill road. He had done
the business he had to transact. and got
in his wagon to return. The. lines lay
across the horses back. and while he was
reaching out to secure them the animal
started. and in passing out of the en-
trance to the farm. the wagon‘ struck a
rock and Mr. Olmstead was thrown out
with great violence against a stone wall.
He was picked up unconscious and se~
vcrcly bruised. He was taken to his
home where he has been attended by Dr.
t‘larke. and is expected to soon be able
to attend to his business. liis escape
from immediate death is considered
marvellous by those who saw the acci~
dent.

The temperance organizations of the
country having decided upon the week
beginning Sunday. September 20, as the
time for celebrating the centennial of
temperance. Ministers of all creeds and
denominations are requested to preach
that day on temperance topics, and the
succeeding day is to be set apart for
holding iublic demonstrations. The en-
tire woe is to be known ”Centennial
week. The National Temperance socie~
ty has adopted resolutions soliciting
churches. temperance organizations and
committees generally to make centennial
offerings for circulation of temperance
literature especially among the freedmen
and inviting the friends of temperance
throughout the world to unite in cele-
brating the centennial anniversary.
A few weeks ago, as the evening train
came rushing into the depot. a stranger
alighted and seemed to be looking for a
familiar face. After looking around
for a few moments be was rewarded I)
seeing his old friend and comrade N. L.
Pack. The stranger. Mr. Sbepmoes.
and Mr. Peck were fast friends In the
late war. during the last part of which
they were stationed together in Wash-
ington and parted in the year 1865. and
have not seen each other since, although
Mr. Sheptnces had tried in many ways
to find his old comrade. At last he
wrote to the pension ofllcc to find his
whereabouts. and after learning that
Mr. Peck was living in Norwalk came
up and spent Sunday with him and
talked over the three years of camp life
thoroughly. returning to his

Governor Harrison. Adjutant General
Smith and Secretary . Osborne visited
Fitch‘s Soldiers Home at. Daricn and the
Bridgeport hospital Monday.
“I hen asked concerning the ob'ect. and
result of the visits, Governor I arrison
said. “ \Ve went. to the home and hoe Ii~
tal for the purpose of ascertaining t e
condition of the soldiers who are main-
tained in those institutions by the state.
There are thirty-one soldiers in the home
and thirteen‘in the Bridgeport hospital.
Fitch's home is a comfortable looking
establishment. It looks like a farm
house, and t ere is in it no evidence of
luxury or isplay. We talked freely
with a number of the soldiers and made
inquiries of them in regard to the treat~
merit they received. the quality and
quantity of their food. etc. Those to
whom we spoke uniformly assured us
that they were well treated and cared
for in all respects and had nothing what~
ever to complain of. We examined the
bedrooms and all the other apartments
of the establishment and came away on-
tirely satisfied that the home was domg
for the soldiers living in it all that the
state expects. The Bridgeport hospital
is a new institution. The building is a
very fine one with all the modern im-
provements. We talked with every one
of the soldiers in it and received from
them an expression similar to that given
by inmates of the home. One man sta~
ted, not in a tone of com int, how's
ever. that. he needed more I: otbing than
he had. The general inquired into the
facts and promised to furnish what was
needed. The questions put by us in both
places were not asked in the hearing of
the attendants. but under circumstances
which/gave the men opportunitiea of ex-
ginning themselves privately and fully.

III-v. .\. S. taiiutlmrt‘a Farewell.
The llaptist church was crowded to its
utmost capacity Sunday evening to lis-
ten to th-- farewell discourse of Rev. A.
S. (lumbart. who preached an eloquent
sermon from the text. “The grace of
the Lord Jesus Christ. and the love of
God. and the communion of the «Holy
Ghost be with you all. Amen." He pre-
friccd his address with the statement
that during his ministry iii this city he
hrid to the best of ability preached the
plain Gospel of Jesus I ‘hrist without fear
or favor. and \vItIi purpose solely of the
salvation of souls and the tip building of
t‘lirist‘s Kingdom. and this. his last dis-
course. would be of the same character.
The closing part. in which he implored
God's amen to the benediction. was
toucliingly eloquent and visibly affect-
ed the hearers.
Mr. iiumbart‘s pastorate of the Baptist
church iii this city has been brief but
great in its results. \Vlien he came the
s Iciety held its services in the poorest
church edifice in the town; now they are
llt'lll in the bcst. lle undertook a grcat
work in building the new church. but he
iiccotiiplisticd it despite obstacles which
were generally considered insurmoun-
table. llis preaching has been clear and
unequivocal. and has had for its purpose
the building up of professors in the holy
faith. and to draw the unsaved to Him
who takcth away the sins of the world.
As a preacher be has delighted all who
have listened to him: as a citizen he has
proved amauly one: in society he has
been genial and courteous and he leaves
behind him here hundreds of warm
friends who will follow him to his new
field with best wishes and fervent
prayers for his success in the great work
to which he has devoted his life.
He moved to his new home in Green~
point. on Tuesday. and will begin his
ministerial labors there the first Sunday
in June.
Spring Flowers.
The spring time. which according to
the almanac and tradition, should bring
spring flowers and spring poetry, has
this year been a disappointing one, and
in consequence the crop of out door flow-
era and indoors poetry has been a bar
ren one : and we are not sure but that
the general public are the gainers. as in
the opinion of most men the awence of
of the indoor poetry will more than
compensate for the loss of the outdoor
flowers. But barren as has been the
outdoor crop of flowers. under glass
flowers were never more prolific and
beautiful than at this time . as any of
our readers mav see by paying a visit to
the mirserv of Messrs. John 11. Smith &
Sons. on Main street. in this city. where
may be seen an endless variety of per
fected potted and bedded plants, most of
which are now in full bloom. presenting
a pleasing contrast to the out door bar-
reneas. The vacant grounds of the our
sery homestead have nearly all been oc-
cupied. and we are not sure but that ere
long the want of more room for glass
houses and bedding frames will com-
pel Mr. Smith to put his dwelling on
wheels and seek other grounds for its lo-
cation. Among the thousands of plants
now to be. seen at. their best, and which
the general public are daily purchasing
to beautify their grounds and rooms. are
many rare and beautiful roses. alonsoe,
asters. balsam, Chrysanthemum, ra-
niums. heliotrope. honeysuckle, ya.
cinth. ice plants. lavender. pansy. petu.
nia. pinks. Wisteria. and hundreds of va~
rietiea that we have not space to enum-
erate. If any of our readers have not
paid the nursery a visit, we advise them
to lose. no time, but go at once and see
what careful and scientific culture can
produce in the way of flowering and or
namental plants.
