:, A GREAT DROUGHT IN NEW ENGLAND = Mills stopping for want of water-Manu. sfacturers buying Norwalk Engines. Com plaints are heard from every quarter of the scarcity of water in the New England States. Thousands of mechanics are beiug thrown ont of employment. and the spring de. mand for goods will find many manufac. turers unprepared to fill their orders. The more shrescd and energetic of them are buy. ing the superior engines manufactured by the NoRwALK IRON WoRKs, of SOUTH NoR
 WALK, CoNN., and will be ready to take the orders from the hands of their competitors who are waiting Janaary thaao. See ex. tracts from letter of Fl. F. Hayden, Chiei Engineer of .. S. Senate in our advertise ment columns.

NEW MILFORD.

The annual election of officers of Water Witch Engine Company took place on Monday, January 2d, with the following result: Foreman-F. Boardpan; lst As. sistant. R. Erwin; 2d Assistant. H. s. My gait; Secretary. F. E. Starr; Treasurer, R. B. Noble; H. E. Bostwick, Charles Taylor, and A. B. Bristoll were renomina- ted as Engineers of the Fire Department. A resolution was passed directing the Treasurer to notify all delinqusnts that the names of those three months in ar. rears on the second Monday in March, be dropped from the roll of the Company. On the 9th inst, 6 special meeting was held to take action in regard to an annual festival, but your correspon- dent is uninformed as to the result.
 - In the list of officers of St. Peters Lodge, F. & A. M., given on the 18th ut. the names of Rev. s. B. Simpson, Chap lain, and O. NJ. Booth, Marshall, were ac- cidentally omitted.
 = Albert Anson, Proprietor of the New Milford House, lost valuable horse, on Sunday night. He was kicked by another horse, while standing in the stable, and his leg was broken above the ancle, rem dering it necessary to kill him.
 A splendid ice crop has been obtained here. the blocks being from eight to ten inches thick; but if the present drouth continues much longer, it will be necessa- " to melt it for drinking water.
 = The proposed railroad from New Preston here, excites considerable interest, and an efficient corps of Engineers are eu. gagged in making survey. The Housa- tonic road already has a charter for such a branch, and the towns interested should see that the project is carried through, as the route is an exceedingly feasible one. = Three or four hundred cattle belong. ing to different farmers in the town, have been afflicted with the Cattle disease, but none of them have died. and they appear to be slowly recovering from it.

1t is custom with us-and a very pleas ant one tco-to make the minister an. an. nual visit. Accordingly. on Monday even- ing, Jan. 2d, large proportion of our So- ciety's people. young and old, met at the Parsonage, to wish the Rev. Mir. Burch and family Happy New Year." Some accompanied their good wishes by sub stantial tokens. By the words and ap- pearance of all, it was not difficult to see how pleasant is the relation existing be tween pastor and people. The week of prayer was partially observed.
 - The lecture by Hon. William Goth ren came off according to appointment, and was listened to by fair number, con- sidering the unpleasant evening. We are intending to have two or three more dur ing the winter. -..,.a ..a 2.
 A few have secured ice for the year, and find the quality to be very fne. A.

And sometimes comes she with tithe-pig's tail,
 Tickling parsons nose as a lies asleep,
 Then dreams he ofanother benefce. Shakespeare.
 Last week, Rev. Henry Upson's numer- ous friends met at the parsonage, and not only enjoyed themselves hugely, but left as a substantial token of their regard thirty dollars in cash. besides numerous other snbstantials. Music, both instrumental and vocal gracea the occasion. and the sports consisted of varied assortment of parlor games, tableaux. charades, Sc. It was tremendously cold night, and, of course, a great many could not tear them selves from their stoves. as a most tena. cious affinity exists between human beings and glowing coal fires, on such evenings.
 - The question of a branch railroad from New Milford to New Preston, to ter minate at the latter place. is agitated again, and subscription paper. for rais- ing the requisite funds to survey the pro- posed route has been circulated, and it met with ready response. Sufficient has UGGu TalSeU tO WOE0 UTAH tuO AOusSs and the work of surveying will probably be commenced before this is printed. May the greatest of success attend the under taking!
 - On Monday, January 2d, grand oyster supper was given in Union Hall. People that rarely, if ever. attend church, were here; and they didn't show the least particle of mercy, but the way the bivalves disappeared was perfectly astounding. Af' ter supper. the young people, with Yale student as manager, treated the humanity present to series of conundrums, cha rades, tableaux, etc. Although their sce' nery was not over exquisite. the perform ance did exceedingly we'll as an impromp' tn, brought down the house. and occasion' ed an immense deal of laughter and ex' hilirating mirth. The proceeds amount ing to nearly one hundred dollars, will. understand, be applied to painting the Congregational Church. IT's I.
