SAYBROOK.

After a week of very good weather,
change has come, and to-day there has
been rain, wind and various other things
that are not pleasant, but we must take
the bitter with the sweet. In few weeks
we shall see winter at our doors, wheth-
er we are ready for it or not
About z o'clock last Saturday evening,
as P. R. Mills, Jr, and his wife, were re-
turning home from Geneva, and were
riding lelsurely past the premises of Mr.
Bartholomew, few rods east of the
creek, man by the name of Livingston
drove rapidly into the street, and his
horse struck Mr.. Mills carriage, upset
ing it and throwing both Of. them out in
to the road, breaking both shafts, and
smashing things generally. Fortunately
neither Mr.. Mills or his wife were se-
riously injured, and the horse was stop
ped after dragging Mr.. NJ. a short dis
tsnce in the dirt. Mr.. L. did not wait to
pick up the fragments, but, to use the
language ofmy informant, lit out, with
out SO much as saying goodbye. As he
lives in Trumbull, charity inclines US to
think he was anxious 10 get home before
Sun day. We are told that pressing in
vitation has been sent to him to come
back and talk the matter over before win
ter sets in.
Mr.. Josiah NJ Baldwin, of ofAustinburg,
has given motto that all those who may
wish TO avail themselves of his services
as teacher of penmanship. to meet him
at the town house on Satur day evening =,
Oct. 80. As Mr.. B. is an experie need
teacher, we hope he will succeed in form
ing good class.
Quarterly meeting OF the NJ. E. church
on Saturday and Sunday, Oct 80 and 81.
Elder D. C. Osborne is expected to
preach on Saturday at p. m, and on
Sunday at 7p.m. Rev. L. W. Day, we
understand, has been invi ted to conduct
the services on the Sabbath morning.
A meeting of the temperance women
of this town will be held at the Congl
Church at 2 p. m, tomorrow, for the
purpose, as we understand it, of forming
temperance league. This is a move in
the right direction, for women are the
keenest sufferers from the blighting curse
of Intemperanee, and it is eminently fit
ting and proper that they concentrate
their moral power in the use of all the
means within their reach to arrest the
progress of this gigantic evil. III.

STILES g SMTTH.-The ex-sheriR and
Mr.. Oliver Smith, the recent purchaser
of the house and lot of 8. II. Fox, in
this village, have been putting up a saw
snd planning mill near Rome station,
where not only these but kindred branch.
es of industry are TO be carried on-sueh
as making shingles, lath, oheese-boxes.
&C, With Mr.. Smith we are no. aequaint-
ed, but the intelligence and energy Of ex.
sheriff Stiles would prove a valuable in
Vestment for any business. We shall +,
therefore, look for success to follow the
new enterprise. Rome is bound TO make
their station a business centre. New
Lyme being rival station, must look to
her lRurels.

Public expectation might be disap-
pointed did we not deign passing no.
tice of our band wedding. The band
with. others, were invited to the marriage
of Mr.. ]. Budlong and Miss Helen PEBBLES,
which came of IN the afternoon. The
people were taken by surprise when the
music first burst upon the village, and
could not tell what was up. About p.
m. the band, with their new wagon, lead
of, with some dozen other vehicles in
the cortege, embracing the bridal party,
for the station, to take the 5 o'clock ex-
press west Arrangements had been
made, as was supposed, tor its stopping,
but the conductor was not posted and
the train, TO the disappointment and cha
grin of the party, never halted. The
pleasures of the occasion were, ther efore,
considerably marred. The party were
constrained to wait until the next day.
The groom had interested himself in the
band and the new wagon, and they were
in turn glad to contribute what they
couldto the pleasures ofthe occasion.
Tie fine weather has been actively i'm

Onions are generally TO be barreled
and corded up for-winter and spring. No
price has yet beennamed that would pay

Abbott, the cooper, is oEerrun with or
ders for onion barrels, while some parties
have bought in Geneva, Cleveland. &c.
Glezen, one of our leading cider max
ers, says there never were more cider ap-
pies brought in than this fall Winter
apples for storing are not so plenty. First

Barton having bought several orchards
on the shore is packing and shipping.

thing as they thought, although, as the
sequel shows, they caught "7artGr. -

Th 9 TiltOns-Failures-B ess--
Gaming and Rum-Pafd Politicians
Fash1ons-ChandIer- weather.
Possibly the world has heard enough of
the Tiltons; but there is always curios-
ity to know something of the up-rislngs
and down sittings of those who have been
prominently before the public. OF the
children of The odo re and Elizabeth, one
only is with the father-Florence. a
beautiful, bright, accomplished good girl
of seventeen. She loves Theodore in an
idolatrous fashion, and while she loves
her mother no less, she stays by her faith
er, that his home may not be entirely
desolate. Mrs. Tilton is with her mother,
Mrs. Morse. The Plymouth people made
up the magniic ent sum of 800 for her,
on which, suppose, she is expected to
live this winter. Theodore Is building
up-his wrecked fortunes on the lecture
platform. He is having wonderful sue
cess all over the country. He is probao-
ly the best platform orator in the country,
and then who is there who does not
want to see the man who tackled the
great pulpit Boanergers. The curiosity
of the public. and Theodore's talent viii
give him all the money he wants. There
is rumor afloat that neg citations are in
progress for a reconciliation between
him and his wife, and am inclined to
believe there is foundation for it. Tilton
always did love his wife, and I know he
believes her more sinned against than
SHINING.
Beecher never drew bigger audiences
than now, and seems never to have had
so firm hold of his people.
FAILURES.
The Wednesday morning papers re-
ported six failures, five of them rather
large ones, and every day since the lis.
is growing. This year will 60 into histo-
ry' as a disastrous one TO mercantile
classes but 1t will have a great deal
more charged to 1t than 1t deserves.
The fact Is the failures now being an
nOunced should be charged up to the ae-
count of the last two or three years, for
these houses have, almost without excep-
tion, been bankrupt for from three to
Eve years. So long as the times kept
flush, and credit easily obtained, they
could swim IN the current, but the mo-
ment the pressure came, and banks began
TO tighten up a tribe, down they went.
Besides, this Is good time to fail. The
ruined man who might squeeze along a
few moro years, prefers to fail now, when
they have good excuse for it and when

In fact there is not town in the county

Notwithstanding fthe fact that less than
year ago Messrs. ]. Mansfield & Co.
doubled the capacity of their store, they
have again been compelled to add more
room. In order to gain the desired room
they have fitted up the extensive base
ment under their double store in neat
manner, making a pleasant sales room
thereof The east portion of the basement
will be devoted exclusively TO overcoats,
OF which they have an assortment un-
equaled west of New York for quality,
make up and variety. III quality and
make up these goods are equal in every
respect TO the finest custom make. while
the variety Is such that every one can
ind something within their means The
west half of the basement will be devot-
ed TO turs, robes, &C., of which they are
able 10 show great variety of desirable
goods. MessFs. Mansfield g Co. havo
been remarkably successful in building
up trade In fine clothing. Their efforts
have always been marked by an enter
prise and system of fair dealing most
commendable. This season their stock
OF fall and winter clothlng-of all grades
is superior to any assortment ever
brought TO this city, and their prices,
will, as heretofore, be low enough 10 in
sure bargain in every instance.

The line or two of badinage,, last week.
from the Junior, about the full vote oil
Ashtabula, had the effect to set our usu-
ally grave anil ve,y proper friend OF the
Times 10 drawing upon his really ready
powers in The way of comparison OF To-
caIities. Much that he says both about
Geneva and AshtsIula, we do not care
to take strenuous exceptions 10. As
claimed Geneva has done well with her
| advantages, and makes a very creditable
showing when those advantages are pOr-
trayed by friendly pen. We would not
| take leaf from her chaplet We care
not 10 pursue the spirit of the Times arti-
Gle, as invlduous comparisons are not
usually productive of good neighborhOod
feeling and amenity. We regret to see
anything of an unfriendIY nature, as we
are constrained TO view the charge of
lack of enterprisa," on the part of our
citizens. We think our cotemporary Is
too discerning to believe that this charge
justly lies at our door. We believe some
of our contemporaries, when urging their
own people up to works of improvement,
have pointed to this town as an example.
Ifthe investment of $450,000 in banking
capital, $50 900 in iron manufactures,
$4,000 in gas stock, 800, 200 cash con-
tributiOus. besides many thousands in
real estate TO railroads, 100000 or more,
in vessel stock are not evidences Of
terprise, with population according to
the Times, scarcely greater than Geneva,
we should.like to know what the Times
would call it. No. friend Times, it is not
the "Iack of enterprise" but the real ar
ticle itself, that provoke The spirit of the
article in question, and is he animus OF
ihe.moiive that pervsdrs and undeTlles it.
The vote, which is taken as lack of
population" is a rather uncertain stand
ard of estimate. Though it was larger
than any that had preceded it, it was by
no means full one. The tally boo
shows more than a hundred that failed
TO vote, while many more were awaiting
the expiration Ofthe interstate limita-
ton for the right TO vote, while others
awaited the maturing of thei naturaliza-
ton process. These considerations shO W
that the basis of the estimate of popula-
ton and comparison, is not strictly fair.
Then the idea conveyed by the assertion
that we have 'had two branch railroads
for several years." is not less unfair.
1t is well known that the great advan-
tages of these roads, which it Is the
Times object TO initiate" have only be-
gun, under limited facilities, with one
road, while the other has not really yet
made beginning of commercial busi.
ness and trade at its terminus. But then
these things are coming right along, Mr..
Times, and if we are of dwarfish propor-
lions just now, and only worthy 0t your
taunts, you have only TO wait littl e
longer and We will endeavor to get up to
every reasonable expectation. In the
meantime we shall endeavor to be SEEM
ly in our behavior and offer every en-
cOuragemen; to our ambitious neIghbors,
who wish TO hold an honorable place in
the advance and progress of the age.
