CRITcI.

MIR. EDIToR.-I have somewhere seen a picture in which there was lot of chii- dren, and in the midst of them there stood a man with hand extended, and in his hand
 was something that the little folks seemed very anxious to get hold of. They were represented as crying, and pleading to the extent of their ability, that their desire
 might be gratified and the article given
 them The explanation was found in the
 words beneath. Doctor Somebody's Sugar
 Coated Pills" Children cry for them.
 Now do not know that children, or those
 of more mature years, cry for the CONN.
 WESTERN NEWS, but towards the last of the
 week, as they come and go, often hear
 the question asked, ''has the CONN. WEs-
 TERN NEws come yet" and when it does
 come, l hear so many favorable comments
 about it, and its wide-awake Editor, that
 I conclude you have been unusually success
 ful in securing without delay, the good will
 of your patrons. Uncle J. was the best
 ax helve maker in the town. People often
 praise his wares as we'll they might, for
 they were really got up in the most artis-
 tic style. If there was however, any defici-
 ency of praise on the part of others, the
 old man could readily supply it. There"
 said he, (holding out one of the articles
 aforesaiO lis the best ax helve you ever
 saw, and believe the time aoiU come if it
 has not already, when people will say
 uncle J. has beat AinaseSf making ax helves.
 Now the general impression down this way
 is, that friend Pease has beat himself in
 making a newspaper. May his shadow never be less, but may shadow and sub-
 stance both continue in ever increasing
 proportions. Rev. Jesse Brush was in
 his Pulpit again last Sabbath, after q short
 vacation. He gave his people ringing
 sermon from one of Paul's admoIitious to
 Timothy. "Lay hold on eternal life. 1" Gas
 men who accumulate their thousands or
 millions of this worlds wealth; as those
 who span the continent with railroads and telegraphs as those who carry on any of the great enterprises of the day success fully 7; layho5d of hhesr aoork, bringing brain, and muscle, and every power into active exercise; so should they lay hold of those great spiritual truths and interests, which will alone, be valuable when time and all material things shall no longer be. We hear it reported that South Cornwall is not as full of city boarders this summer as usual. We know not why this should be so, as it,is very pleasant summer resort, especially for those who love the valley This part of the town is the hill country, and has more than it's usual quota of sum- mer visitors. Taking tho whole town, we suppose there is about the usual average the past week we have had here, the most of whom are fix lures for few weeks, Mayor Lewis and Rev. F. Lobdell, with their families, from New Haven; Rev. Hull and family, from New York; Rev. c. Wetherby and family, from Winsted; Rev. $. Scovill and family, from Norwich, New York; Rev. A. Bald win and family, from Memphis Tennessee Dr. Hale and family, from St Louis; M. Bayright and family, from Brooklyn; be- SLUG d Ol OIuGtS lIOu IN. OEk ana whose names I am unable to give. When our friends down at West Corn wall ettheir new railroad depot completed of which they seem to be quite proud, we think they better establish a registry office, where the names of the arrivals may be re- corded, and thus the curiosity of some people may be the better satisfied, and an occasion al article for the papers the better rounded | put. t.......W We do not wonder that those who |
 i've within city walls, or other bent up places should love these hills, while the log star is on the rampage, and where not his antics, they can bre ath an air as pure and healthful, as the source | rom whence it comes. Surely the pleas mt and spacious farm houses at North Corn yall with their pleasant surroundings of | we'll titled acres; of woods, and streams, md lakes, have only to be known to be appreciated, and so it is coming to pass.
