Chester.

In our search for locals, on Satur-
day, we noticed a new sign lately
''swung out to the breeze" upon which
are inscribed the names of Sherwin,
Hayward & Whitman. These young
men have associated themselves together
for the purpose of manufacturing car
riages and sleighs; and are established
in the carriage mandatory of the late
H. II. Sherwin, on North street. En-
ploying none but skilled workmen, and
using only first class material. Parties
will find this house worthy of patronage,
and we trust that these young men may
meet with that success they are truly
worthy of.
The new building on Main street,
styled the Fullerton Block, is completed,
and already occupied by the lessees. 1t
is the finest business block in town, and
our citizens have a right to feel proud of
it. The structure is eighty by sixty
feet, two stories In hight, and furnished
throughout in the most perfect manner.
The west side Of the building is Occu-
pied by George II. Hilton, who has fill
ed the same with large stock of dry
goods, ready made clothing and gro
ceries Geo" will make fine dress
goods a speciality, and will keep on hand
the latest and most fashionable styles.
The east side of the building is rented
by f. f. Barney, proprietor of the
Chester Marble Works. In the same
building is a large hall fitted up express
ly for lodge of Odd Fellows.
The members of Center Lodge, l.
O. of 0. F., are making extensive ar
rangemcnts for their second annual ball,
which is to be held at the Ingraham
House, on Wednesday evening, January
nth. Hough's popular Quadrille Band
will furnish the music The direction
of the floor is assigned to Hugh Henry,
H. c. Holden, N. s. Proctor and Geo
L. Griswold. The parties given previ-
ously under the auspices of this order
have been select and very pleasant and
the committee will do all in their power
to maintain the established reputation of
the Odd Fellows, caterers to the public
engagements. Cole will furnish one of
his superb suppers, and we can vouch
that this part of the entertainment will
be all that the most fastidious epicure
could desire. Free carriages are to run
from the depot. We are informed that
a large number of prominent members
of the order are invited, and many have
already signitiedtheir intentionto be pre-
sent.
The first Restoration Society, of
Chester, held their annual meeting on
the first Tuesday of January, and elect
ed the following officers for the ensuing
year President, Oliver Ellis; Clerk
and Treasurer, Simeon Sherwin; Com
mittce, Coleman Sanders, Oliver Ellis,
