On account of the poor condition of the fences on so much of the route, their job will be one to give them and their many hands employment nearly all summer
 Whot Is H.-Some of our correspond ents appear to have deserted us of late. What is the trouble? Out of stamps Got disgruntled at something? or what really has 'busted"? Millerton, Falls Village or Ore Hill have not been heard from in some weeks. We'll send any of you peck of stamps "quicker'n wink" if we should learn that was the trouble.

 Why SO?-Coal is sold in Bridgeport and delivered to any part of the city at $6 and $7 per ton. We get coal direct from the great central coal depot on the Hudson, and why should it cost $2 per ton more to get it here, than it does to carry it down around New York and up to Bridgeport? Coal in these parts sells at $9 per ton and tue buyer pays for it's being delivered to his residence. "How is this for which ?"
 Conn. Western R. R.-The new super intendant of the Conn. Western railroad appears to thoroughly understand his busi. ness and is managing the road in such manner as to give the best of satisfaction to the company and its patrons The trains arc running with great regularity and the business of the road appears to in- crease every day. Rarely. if ever, has new road created for itself SO much busi- ness in so short time, and to express an opinion that five years hence, the company will find it necessary to construct second track 10 accommodate the business of the road, is by many thought to be by In means premature.
 For the LodSes.-Mr. s. c. Beckley, of Canaan, has just received an elegant assort- ment of ladies' undergarments, consisting of night-dresses, chemises, skirts, Ec., &c. at least the ladies say they are elegant, and that it is line of goods which merchants ought long ago to have introduced into their business. They are elaborately wrought and remarkably cheap. The other day he on his counters dozen or fifteen pieces of Dolly Warden piques, of as varied and elegant patterns as is often found in a country store, and with his large stock ot percales, organdie muslins, lawns, lin ems and mohairs, must make his store one ot the most attractive in the country for the ladies. 1w43
 faQer MaUs.-We learn from very good | that MT. Wm. T. Fish of Lee, is stirring about among the Lee capitalists, to get their views about the establishment of | one or more paper mills in this village, and | what amount of stock they are willing to take in such establishments lere. This indeed is move in the right direction, and should the heavy men of Lee conclude to bring some of their capi- al and experience in paper making to Sal sbury, they will find this village possesses advantages for their business, rarely met with in this country. It is to be hoped hat before they decline doing anything bout it, they will investigate the matter to enable them to reuder their lecision un6erstandingly.
 NeU Clock.-The Connecticut Western ailroad contemplate shortly of putting lew locomotive on their road named "Ca- laan," and It is proposed on the part of the to raise money enough by sub- cription to pay for clock for the same.
