And I want to say another thing. \ou

Looking for the ttold mink In the strainer
Lexington.
The Naugatuck Review which has
been telling stories of the success of a
Mr. Wooster of that place in finding
hidden gold 'nd silver by means of a
"divining roc .“ last week contained the
following which will interest readers
here. "Mr. “'ooster returned not long
ago from the sea coast whither he went
to discover. if possible. the whereabouts
of the steamer Lexington. which took
fire. off I-‘airt‘ield. many years ago and
sank. with considerable loss of life.
There are those living to-day who un-
doubtedly remember the circumstances
of this steamer which lied between New
York and Boston. bhe had on board,
besides her regular cargo. a great sum of
gold in transit for Boston mercantile
houses. The same evenin off the Con.
uccticut coast near Fairfiel . the steamer
went down with all on board save the
captain and a mere handful of men.
The gold which she carried was stored in
a massive safe in the captain‘s cabin and
went down ‘with the ship. On board
the fatal ship was Captain Iiillyard of
another boat who had taken passage for
Boston. He threw a bale of cotton
overboard jumped after it and clung to
it till a man from Greens’ Farms who
witnessed the catastrophe from shore
rowed out and picked him up. This old
sailor was in the confidence of the cap-
tain of the Lexington and he in turn
confided to his preserver the facts relat~
ing to the gold which went down with
the chi . That man who saved the
captain a life still lives in Fairfield, not
far below Bridgeport, and by certain
marks and ranges to pretty
nearly locate the point where the ship
went down. Another man living on
the Westport shore who saw the losing.
ton sink claims to have oceanic know-
ledge of the place where the ship sank.
Mr. Wooster had frequently tried his
instruments at short ran on the water
with successful results. at of this one
he was somewhat doubtful as the dis~
tance from the shore was so great. But

of much magnitude at once; tried from
another point with the same result.
Then he laid of! a line from the Connec-
ticut shore to Long Island; moved to
another point and laid 08 a second line.

In ISM. over fifty years ago. there, was
a movement made to change the lower
shire from Fairfield to Norwalk. which
Danbury endorsed. A petition was pre-
sented to the legislature to accomplish
this purpose. It has been preserved by
L. P. Treadwell, of this town, whose

father was then a member of the logis-
lature. \Vc present it herewith, as it is,
in the present state of affairs. an litter-
eating paper:

To the Honorable General Assembly
of the State of Connecticut, to be liulden
at New Haven. on the first Wednesday
of May, 1834:

The petition of the undersigned. in-
habitants of the county of I";IIIIICILI
respectfully showeth. that the court
house and jail at Public“. in said coun-
ty, are old, out of repair, and in no
respect such as the convenience and re.
apectability of the county demand:
that they will soon require to be enlarg~
cdand repaired, or to be replaced bv
others better adapted to the accommoda-
tion of the public; and your ietitioiiers
would further state. that on y a very
small ruin of the county are satisfied
with t epreaent location of the court
It so and jail. and that public con~
yFI‘ilience I't‘t uires their removal from
or town of airfield. It is well known
to the legislature that. there are two
court houses in the county. The one at
llaubury well accouttiiodatee the north-
ern part of the county. and an inspec
lieu of the map will show (what indeed
is conceded by alh that. the one for the
southern shire must be located in some
of tho towns bordering on Long Island
sound. The town of Fairiield is far
from being Central. The present court
house is about. twenty—seven miles from
the western and about nine miles from
the eastern extremity of the county.
And in regard to tho trade. population.
intercourse. and relative importance of
the diil'orcitt parts of the county. its
hicatioii is equally objectionable. I-‘air-
field is a place of no business. and ordi-
narily there is very little intercourse be-
tween that and other towns in the
county: and to all persons attending the
courts in that place the want of suitable

niemorialists would further state that a
very large proportion of the business
brought before the courts arising in the
southern part of the county, originates
in the towns west of the town of Fair-
lield. and such will probablv continue
to be the fact, front the rapidly increas-

those towns. And your nietnorialists
would further state. that all the reasons
which go to show that the court house

to be established at horwalk. A glance
at the map of the county will show that

largely engaged in manufactures. and
that both its trade and population are
rapidly increasing. that it has far more
intercourse and more facilities for car-
rying on that intercourse with the vari—

town. being the place where the travel

think they can satisfactorily prove that
the interests of the county require that
the courthouse and jail should be re
moved from Fairfield and be perma~
nently established at Norwalk. Your
memorialists therefore pray that when-
ever a court house and jail shall be
erected at Norwalk. in such manner, and
upon such terms as the legislature shall
prescribe, the terms of the several courts
n'ow holden at Fairfield shall be bolden
at Norwalk. and that a law to that ef-
fect may be enacted, or that such other
relief may be granted as the legislature
shall deem proper. And your memo-
rialistl as in duty bound will ever pray.

The Derby Silver- Company Boo-1.3.

The Ansonia Sentinel publishes an in.
tervicw with Mr. Miller, the man I'
of the boycotted Derby Silver in pony:
”The truth is,“ said Mr. Miller, “we
have now the best company of men that
we ever had. and everything is going
along beautifully. “he have had the boat
March sales that we have everhad, as
our books wtll show. Furtbemoro, we
were never in a better condition finan-
cially than Iii-day. We have over aoo
men at work. We are turning out drab
class goods, sad we have more orders
than we can fill at ten hours per running
time in three months. Instead of losing
men we are daily adding to our force.
And yet I am met every day by people
who want to know if 'v've can‘t fix up
this. thing. somehow. so as to fret agoing
again.’ People don‘t seem to know that
the battle has been fought out, and that
the Derby Silver is the victor. The
struggle has cost a cool $25,000. it is-
truc. but the fight is over and weare
as sound as a nut. “'lty. the idea that
some folks seem to have about our ina-
