Among the other seasonablc festivites was a well-loaded Christmas tree, on which was hung a useful pres- ent for each and all of the scholars. The Connecticut prohibitionists may be as harmless as doves but they were not as wise as serpents in electoral mat— ters.

The Conn. Weekly Press association are trying to bring back the good Old days when the laws were wont to be published in the new'spaper.

A wonderful feature 'of the late storm occurred at Eastport, Me., where the mercury Friday morning registered 2 degrees below zero and during the height of the storm rapidly up 42 degrees. This is one of the moist remarkable instances on record where such a rapid increase has Occurred dur- ing a» severe storm. , ‘ The father of M. J. Morris, anhgent‘ for the Singer sewing machine, had a shock of paralysis at his home on Wil- ton avenue recently. ' Special dispatches from the Indian country to-day tell an interesting story of the surrender of Big Foot and his band of hostiles.

Goldschmidt will sell his stock of Glassware and Lamps at cost, to close out the business. 18 Water street. .Claude A. PoyveZ lies in a critical state at his home on Orchard street. He was stricken with paralysis some months ago, since which time his life has been slowly ebbing away and it now thought the end is near. He is a well known employee at the Lounsbury Mathewson A: Go. shoe manufactory. “Where did you get that hat?” was the plagiarized salutation with which J. Hour Wade greeted ex-‘Yarden Coolidge yesterday, who strode with dignity along Main street. beneath a new and shiny stovepipc. “It’s one I got on Christmas,” replied Coolidge, “I had a dozen, of assorted sizes, giv-. 5311 me on that day.” . While smoke was pouringfrom an upper story of the Union club, New York, Christmas day, and fiemen were rushing around, the club men them- selves were as impassive as became the dignity of swells. Says the Herald: “There was no excitement, and some of the members in the reading room did not even lay down their papers.” Ullie Akerstrom’s opening night at Music Hall was auspicious, a good-siz- ed andience being in attendance and Miss Akerstrom’s original play, “An— nette, the Dancing Girl,” being pro- duced in a creditable and satisfactory manner. Miss Akerstrom has in no way deteriorated as an attractive act- ress and her support is good, notably so the leading man, Harry F. Adams. —A fine line of cheap and choice note and letter paper—the cheapest for the quality in town at SUTHERLAND’S. If the incoming Board of Bugesses want to ensconce themselves in the hearts of the people they will build some sort of a wind-break on the bridge so that when a nor’wester comes scooting down the Grand Canal it won’t blow off Doc. Collidge’s new plug hat and take away the ladies’ breath. There should be an open space of a foot or so at the bottom so that if any of our leisure class should use it for a sunning place they will not suffer forthwith from cold feet. The fire bugs still continue their wicked and dastardly work in Danbury. Last week two more barns were burned and already several insurance com— panies have withdrawn from the town, and will take no more risks if these rascals are not found and punished as they deserve. A reward of $5,000 has now been offered, in addition to that already offered before, and the com- munity are thoroughly in earnest in their determination to discover if pos- sible, these miscreants, and bring them to justice. __ ' The meanest man has been heard from again. He is probably a Buffalo citizen, as the papers of that city allude to him but do not locate him. Ashamed to, no doubt. Two years ago Christ- mas he purchased for his two‘year-old daughter a little chair, painted red, Last year he had the chair painted blue and gave it to her as a brand new Christmas gift. This year he had the‘ gilded over and again worked it off on the little innocent. There is nothing pathetic in this because the father is not a poor man, but simply, as one Buffalo paper says, “a horrid. old screw. Three times within a week the 7 g The county commissioners are in Bridgeport this afternoon to hear re- monstrants against a number Of appli- ‘bants for license. Among the remon- Strances to be heard in various towns in .the county are four in Norwalk, two in Stamford and two in Ridgefield. It is believed that the great Louisi- ana lottery fraud is at its last gasp and that Mr. Dauphin’s death will end its iniquitious existence. If P. M. Gen. -Wanamaker had rendered no other service to the world his successful fight against this monstrous swindle should immortalize his name; ' . Mr. James Mansfield has received an answer from Robert F. Adams to his challenge to play any man in the world a game of pool. Mr. Adams offers to play him for $100 a side. Mr. Mansfield will not play Mr. Adams, however, for the reason that he wants to play pro- fessionals and not amateurs. 9 A party of distingue gentlemen were in town to-day, in secret caucus with Senator Hill, which revived the most extravigant stories about New Canaan and Norwalk, and Westport and Dor-, lon Point, Electric railroads, New HO- tels, fast steamboats, &c., &c., and a city charter for East Norwalk. ' William H. Seward remarked that Stephen A. Douglas could never be resident, because “his coat tails were 700 near the ground.”—[Boston Herald . " Bad history. It was not Mr. Seward; it was Col. T.

Darwin C. Pavey, the talented editor of the “Fraternal News"—the new monthly publication devoted to the interests of all fraternal organizations, called on the DAILY GAZETTE Saturday evening. While at our office he show- ed _us a bank check given him by Mr. Robert T. Lincoln, and which was signed by his martyr father, Abraham Lincoln. Yesterday Judge Fenn of the Supreme Court decided that a republican ballot, which was mutilated in opening the envelope when canvassed at the late election, and which was rejected by the democratic moderator, was legal.

Gregory’s Phar- macy. 4 3t Saturday evening Legrand Jennings came to the bridge and was the subject of much curiosity and admiration. The ~reason Of all this was that he was mis- taken for “Steeple Charlie,” and Mr. Andrew Tully was very busy pointing Mr. J. out as the “daring climber," to all with whom he came in contact. The only reason that can be ascribed for mistaking Mr. J. for “Steeple Charlie" is that each has a blind eye. On Christmas eve a goose, belonging to Mr. Henry was stolen from the large refrigerator in Con Howard’s saloon, where it was placed the same evening for safe keeping. The bird, however, was not missed before the next morning, and must have been taken while Mr. Howard was rafiling Off poultry. Mr. Howard, feeling that as the goose was stolen from his premises, he ought to make things right, has ordered a goose to be taken to Mr. Henry’s residence to-day. . -—-Toi1et paper of all kinds at SUTH- ERLAND’s. ' " Observation Seasonable.-—-Whilc the Christmas display of mittens, fur clOaks, sealskin gloves and caps, etc., in the store windows, is somewhat th'in- ned out, they have not been supersed- ed by fire crackers or sky rockets, and the children generally are uniformly obedient to the injunction to keep off the grass. ‘ Last year’s ice is a drug on the market, and no cases of sunstroke have been reported this week, although a large number of people went in bath- ing on Saturday in the barber shop bath tubs. Plowing‘ began the next morning after the last heavy fall of snow. . Coroner Doten, of Bridgeport, was summoned to Norwalk by Examiner Burke to investigate the cause of the ‘ death of Oliver Davis, who 'died at the Norwalk alms house, on Friday last, at the age of 94 years, on representa- tions that his death was attended with suspiciousjcircumstances.' The Coroner came, saw, and went back, first relieving his mind'of the opinion that it was all nonsense to summon him, as there was nothing about the case that demanded his Official attention or required an in- vestigation. Davis had been sick for some time and special nurses had been engagedto attend him forweeks before 1 his death. e CharlesTLynch, of Bethel, was ar- rested in Danbury Saturday night for insulting women on lonely streets at night. He had eluded the Officers for some weeks and generally disguised himself with a false beard which he tried to throw away when arrested, but was prevented by the officer. He was re- leased on a bond of $1,500, which was forfeited Monday morning. The stars and stripes will probably float hereafter from the center .Of the Capitol on both fronts all the year round, as ought to have been the case from the beginning.

Her kittcn’s name is Mittens and shevgavc it to it for its Christmas present.” The GAZETTE announces that hence- forth it will be conducted ass non-par- tisan paper. This declaration leaves the Mechanics’ Journal the only real republican paper in town. We teach the doctrines and the principlesof that party not only in the piping times of victory and success, but even more dil- igently in the days of defeat and ad- versity, as at present, hoping for bet- ter things to come, and showmg the party, according to our lights, the way to achieve them.-—[Journal. ’Tis said of the recent death of a West Norwalk woman that it was hastened by'a lack of nourishment, and that not until almost starved did the woman let her neighbors know of her situation, and then alas, it was too late. She belonged to a well-known and re- spected family Of that place, but against the wishes of friends married a man who since proved to be a thriftless fellow. Col. Daskam, our first selectman,was presented with a bill of $25 against the town by Dr. Burke, for professional services. in a pauper case. Col. Das- kam declined to authorize payment of the bill, because Dr. Burke had acted in the matter entirely on his own re- Sponsibility and without authority from, any town official, and for the further reason that the town employs regularly a physician for such cases, who is duly- authorized and paid to look after the town’s poor. Dr. Burke’s bill is now in the hands Of Lawyer Gray, for collection, and it is probable that a suit will be brought against the town for its payment. That ever welcome home journal, Good Housekeeping, published by Clark W. Bryan & 00., at Springfield, makes a new departure with the beginning of the new year. It is changed from» a semi-monthly to a monthly publication and the January number appears in a more convenient size and form, with double the contents of the old shape, and a superior excellence of quality which cannot fail of making its read- ers feel satisfied that it is a long time between visitsas compared to its form- er time table. Its bill of fare for J an- uary is made up of a feast of good things that will be sure not only to de- light the conscientious housekeeper as a “very present help,” but to interest, instruct and amuse lovers of good lit- erature and admirers of high-class pub- lications, a product for which Clark W. Bryan & Co. are noted the world over. —Call at Goldschmidt’s, 18 Water street and see the bargains you can se- cure in Lamps and Glassware. Sheriff. Toner Santa Claused away a lot of his geese among his friends on Christmas. A couple of the lucky re- cipients think the Sheriff must have thought it was the let of April. They are Billy Banker, and Bowery George, each of whom was given a well devel- oped goose. When they came to com- pare notes the day after Christmas, they confided to each other, in tones more full of sorrow than anger, their private opinion of a goose that would allow itself to be made a confed- erate to a conspirator, be he sherifi or gentleman, who deliberately and mali- ciously would plan to April. fool a couple of good fellows out of a Christ- mas dinner; In their confidential in- terview it came out that Bowery George’s goose, after being boiled for three hours, and baked, and kiln dried, and roasted for a whole day, was as impenetrable and self possessed as ever, and refused to yield or relax a muscle, even under the guillotine or the heads- man’s axe, and George took his family over to aneighbor’Sfor dinner. Bank- er reported an experience with his goose almost identical, and asseverated with every evidence of deep conviction and earnestness that he solemnly be- lieved the goose had passed his days of goslinghood long before Toner began to learn his letters. ‘ ' ' The persistent misrepresentation Of the number and effect of the changes led the Manufacturer of Philadelphia, to make a tabulated comparison of the 11231an with the Old in its issue of the 16th inst, which clearly shows: “First, that no change of any kind has been made with respect to about one-half the items in the old law; second, that of the changes made nearly one-half decreased the duties, instead of in- creasing them, and third, that in only about one-fourth of the items have the duties been advanced.” As an offset to these advances, seventy-five articles or groups of articles hitherto dutiable have been placed on the free list. ———-——————_——..

One of the wise and important parar graphs of Treasurer Henry’s report is that which points out the inequalities of rssessment that now prevail over the state and the need of correcting them. CATHOLIC. Sunday in the Catholic church was observed as the feast of the Holy Inno- cents. Thursday is the feast of the Circumcision and a holy day of obliga- tion. Mass will be said at the usual hours. Although the feast falls on New Year’s day the church has no special prayers relative to the opening of the civil year, as the ecclesiastical year be- gins On the first Sunday in Advent. The mass for New Year’s is entitled: “At St. Mary’s Across the Tiber.” This is the Oldest church :ifibuilt in Rome to the honor of the Blessed Virgiin It was built on the spot where, accord- ing to an ancient tradition, a miraculous well of oil flowed from the ground into the Tiber on the first Christmas night. The church was built in the third cen- tury and was consecrated by Pope Calistus. It is yet known by the name of the fountain of oil. ———'—<+>——-- THE II’EATHER.
