WOLCOTTVILLE,

Philip Philips the wonderful sacred songster is coming to Wolcottville, where he will sing Thursday Evening, Jan. 23d, in the Methodist Church. for the benefit oi the funds of the church. His concerts are among the most wholesome, popular and attractive entertainments enjoyed by the public. For the last two years he has been singing to immense au- dienccs, in the principal cities, east and west, and always to the great delight of all who have been so fortunate as to hear him. There is soul in every note of his song, and his voice combines wonderful clearness with sweetness and power. Let none fail to hear him; it will be in the memory life long delight. The piece entitled ''Your Mission" as sung by MT. Philips, is worth more than whole concert of secular mu- sic. Another opportunity to hear him will not soon occur in this section, as he has more calls from large places than he can possibly accept. Mir. Phillips notice of the concert will be found in the papers next week and tickets will be for sale at the Post Office in Litchfeld and in Vol cottVilla

SALISBURY.

The whole number of deaths in Salisbu- ry during 1867 was 27. Five were over 80 years of age. Fewer deaths than any year before since 1838 .
 The Hotel property at Lakeville did not change hands Jan. lst, owing to the illness of Kelsey, who had bought it of Miller brothers. .
 The new School building at Lakeville is completed, and school will begin Janua- ry 15.
 An enthusiastic meeting of the friends of the stWestern Conn. R. R" was held at at North Canaan last Friday. The Chief Engineer reported the route very feasible. Whether the road shall be built or not, IS now merely Q financial question. If the people along the line will raise SlO,0oO per mile and give or buy the right of way, the road will be built Salisbury, Canaan, Nor folk and Winsted will do that, in my opln- ion.
