Mr. Editor. We are having
stirrisg times in our town.
The Tammany ring Of Wilton has
been ousted by the citizens ticket.
-Ayoung husband got drunk and
abused his wife in = very shocking
manner, threatening to cut her heart
out; now he has to sleep alone, to pay
for his conduct.
Another young couple were
married, and soon after took . trip to
Moscow. At the depot, they met q
former lover of the brides. who greet
cd her warmly, exclaiming, "If | failed
to get you, will have . kiss" This
SO incensed the young husband, to see
his wife receive INTERESTINGLY . kiss
from another, that he went and got
drunk forthwith. On his way home
his horses ran away, and smashed up
things in general, but no one was very
badly hurt. The consequence was .
separation.
+ That long expected store under
the management of the Patrons of
H sbandry is now in full blast. We
had been repeatedly informed by those
in the interest of the society, that
goods would be sold by their firms at
a greatly reduced rate. We had an
opportunity to visit this store and
found the prices fully as high, and
some things higher than in other
stores in town.
One of the latest improvements
Is a new town well, dug BY the City
Council, on the east side of Cedar
street.
Our people have been highly
interested by Temperance Theater
which is quite an amusing ontcrtain-
ment.
-Butter6eld proposes building q
large brick establishment this season.
= IS. b. Russell, of the firm of
Russell 4 Hunter, is sole agent for
the Domestic Sewing Machine. This
is one Of the very best machines in
use; we know for we have used one.
Business is lively in our town,
snd there is considerable grain coming
in. Yours truly,
