The comprehensive and enterprisnig scheme of improvement ill Shippan l‘oitit which has been quietly developing for sortie time. has so far progressisl that it good general idea of the probable changes in that locality for the next twelve months can he arrived at. It looks as if the long promised and often deferred development of Shippan Point was at hand at last. Mr. I“. M. Bell. real cstats agent. has alrviidy placeda goodly number of build ing sites. and a considerable proportion —if not all-of which will be improved by buildings in the near future. .\ notable incident in fills connection is the iiirchase of the chimed“ hotel site on the l’oint—on the. west side. overlooking the water way to New York for twenty “libs—«by Sheriff Swarm. who we understand wtll begin this tall the erect— ion of suitable buildings for an exten- sive summer hotel and shore resort. and the plans include the development of very convenient coiiitiiunications with the place both by land and water. The horse railroad company an. expected to wake up. but at all events a small steamer will run between the Point and the village. and not improbably dock accommodations for a speedy passenger steamer toand from the city will be constructed early next spring. Not much detail can be given as yet to improvements begun or contour dated by private parties. but enough has cvelnped to warrant the assertion that the coming car will be the most important in tho istory of Shi pan Point. and Will show a wondorful angc in the aspect of the place in the direction of development and impmvemont.—Stamford Advocate. Old Papors. A friend handed us this week several old and well preserved nowsps rs. Among them is the “Connecticut Lour- ant." printed Tuesday. Se i. am. 1783. The publishers were Bu son & Good- win. and their office was located “near the great bridge." It is 11 by 17 inches. four pages. Nearly one half of it is used to print “tho last official address of his cxcellcncy General Washington." dated at “Headquarters. Newburg. J uric 1783“ and add to Governor Trumbull. Nsarly all the news it contains was from Europe. A very interesting paper of the number is the "Connecticut Centi- nel,“ which was “published weekly by Henry Trumbull. at his office near the Court House. Norwich.“ and is dated July 24th. 1804. This paper was well tronined by advertisers. It contains a all account of the death and funeral of Alexander Hamilton. Another is the “Norwich Packet.“ printed by "John Trumbullmosr the meeting house.“ dated April 81st. 1785. The important news in this pa r is all printed in italics. A remarks y well preserved old paper is the first number of the Boston owe- Lettsr. dated “Mondsv April 17th. to Monday April 24th. 17 " This paper is 8x12, and is devoted almost entirely to news from Great Britisn. which dates back to Doc. 2d. 1803. The only adveb tisstnsnt is of the paper itself. which reads: ‘fi'hlchws-Inttsristohscontinnsdwscklytsnd allhrscnswhobsvsll museum“. or Mechan- : Who again 'th n l. hut—lasts: of “at, m l‘All Pcrsrms in Town or Country. may have said News-Lona every week.

If the Masachusstts ratio prevailed in Connecticut the Sundav school enroll- ment would be larger by 13,043. For the last flvs the enrollment of Connecticut has steadily diminished. though an increase is shown this year. ' Dam-go to Oysters. For some time fortune has smiled up- on those engaged in the oyster business. Two or three years in succession the “set“ has been very full, and destruc- tion from posts has been slight. As a consequence. those in tho business felt happy, and those out of it envious. Since Tuesday of last week there has been quite a change in sentincnt. and those who have their money in bonds and real estate feel that it is more secure than at the bottom of the sea. The storm of last week did almost incalcul- able damage to oysters. Oystcrmen who own beds in Milford. Bridgeport. Black Rock. Fairfied, Southport and Norwalk waters have suffered extensive loses from the same cause. One oys- terman reports a loss of $75,000. The violent action of the sea caused by the severe northeast gale. did not harm beds located between three to six miles from the shore. Oysters two years old and vounger suffered most. Many of our local planters place their losses at thous- ands of dollars. and the aggregate will amount to more than any misfortune which has befallen business for years. 0. Vii. Hoyt of the noyt Brothers say that one bed of theirs of 104 acres con- taining 25,000 bushels of oysters from one to three years old was completely covered with sea grass and sand. The only satisfaction the oystermen have is the. hope that the son stars have been killed in ratio to the oysters. Traveller's Complaint. Eniroits or SENTINELI— I have heard complaints during the summer of the occasional delays and inconveniences caused by the ,Danbury 3: Norwslk Rsilroadto steamboat s- sengers. but my first experience 0 it was last Saturday evening. The steami 1’ got to the dock at 5.30. and tho passcn~ gets. three car loads. were.» kept§waiting :lii minutes for some of the employes to ride tip after finishing unloading a boat. Is not the road able to take care of its employcs without discommoding pas- sengers. The train did not arrive at the depot iii this city that evening until after the steamboat had reached her dock here and unloaded and winded. I do not suppose the conductor of the train was to blame.but those in authority cannot have much regard for the comfort and accoiniiiiidatiiin of the patrons of the road to permit such annoyance and inconvinenee to passen- gers. We were told when the extension was built we would have better stealth boat accommodations. but under the circumstances. I think! the old ilan of running direct to and from tho uck in this city was the best. C. W. LECOI‘XT. A at Itsfilt“ ESTS. “Irish Aristocrscy“ at the Opera “units.
