On Sunday night. as Mrs. John Gear of Woodville was carrying about g kerosene lamp,it began blazing up and set her dress on fire. Her husband came to her assist ance, was himself splashed with burning oil. and severely burned about the face.
 We hear joke in circulation about the editor of the Enquirer. About year since he deeded ten acres of land near the New Preston station to Mir. Burton Shove with condition that the title should be for feited in case of the sale of liquor on the premises conveyed. Last week, he bought back the land, and Shove insisted on the same condition in his quitclaim. So there are at least ten acres of the Enquirer real estate in Washington on which the liquor traffic cannot be prosecuted. H.

 The city boarders are beginning to arrive, and Saturday night Mrs. Hilton joined her children at the Gunnery. She must feel thankful for such a refuge I think. The early martyrs are to be en- vied in comparison with her. J.
 St. Johns is being re-shingled and it's interior walls are to be kalsomined by MT. Henry Hine of New Milford.
 Mrs. Marvin has reopened her excel lent schools for girls at the Center.
 The spring term of Mir. H. H.. More houses family school on Church Hill open- ed on Wednesday last. Miss Mary NJ. Read. graduate of Vassar, resumes her position as instructress. The heaithful location and safe surrounding influences of this ''Home and School" make it es- pecially worthy the attention of parents. One of the pupils of this school recently received from Cuba several Cacuga, or Spanish Bugs. They measure about one and e half inches in length, and throw out a gleam of light from either side of their heads and breasts. sufficiently strong to brighten dark room. They thrive upon moist cake, sweet potatoes, sugar, &c., and indulge in a warm bath daily. 3 P's.

Mir. James Birden. a gentleman well known as dealer in the enlivening article horse-radish, recently took unto himself 8 wife as will be more fully noticed in our list of marriages. They seem to be hay ing rather eventful honeymoon,-at least if it is all as lively as their experience of Tuesday. They had gone out on the Pa per-mil pond. at the Station. for a little row, and found a log near the edge of the dam which they tried to push over to see the splash. The log did not go over the dam, but, somehow, the Birdens did plunging down some dozen feet into the foamlng water below. It so happened that the up milk train was just passing on the Naugatuck road. Supt. Beach was on board, saw the boat and the Birdens take their awful leap, and rushed down from the Station with several others to fish out the cold corpses of the drowned pair. Luckily Birden ''shot" the fall safely, and he and his spouse came to land happy if trifle wet. So there was no double funeral; but Birden deals in & powerful article, and they say that even the weak dilution of him which went down the Naugatuck, that day, moved the people who haunt it's borders to tears as far down as Ansonia.

COLLEGE STREET

The East Cornwall District School is taught this term by the same lady who taught it last summer; Miss Hattie Beard- sley.
 The weather appears very unfavorable for farming, very few having their oats sowed as yet.
 Below we give for the benefit of ''J. G. B" and perhaps some others who may be interested, a short review of the spell ing-schools held here. last winter:
 The first one your correspondent has any record of was held in our District School House on the eve of Dec. 30, 1874, Willie Fennell spelling them down.
 The next was held in the East Corn wall District Frederick Seelye spelling the school down, Jan. 6.
 Jan. IS, it began to grow interesting; people came from the Plains, and about 60 were present. Willie Fennell spelled the school down.
 Jan. 2Oth, there was a school in the East Cornwall District, but have no re- cord.
 Jan. 27th, the Cornwall folks did not in- tend do get beaten and did not. After a severe struggle, Miss Nellie Miner came off victorioue. This was the school of the season; about 30 were present.
 Feb. 10th, there was one in East Corn. wall, Mrs Phelps, con qusror.
 Feb. 17, there was one in our District, Willie Fennell spelling them down.
 After this date there were some held, but they were not very largely attended owing to bad travelling, etc. One was held in April at which D. o. Perkins beat. Many thanks to 'J. c. B" for his high estima- tion of our ''Girls." Perhaps he would like an introduction to some of them if he has not already been through that same preliminary.

Last Wednesday evening there was a special school meeting in the Centre school house. The district voted to al- low no more scholars from other districts to attend the present term of school, also to repair the fence about the school house yard. An unusual amount of finn kept the meeting good natured.
 -The chorister. Mr. Albert O. Knapp, has just introduced new and very good tune-book, 'The Choral Tribute" into the choir.
 Our Sabbath School xas reorganized On Sunday last: Austin R. Humphrey was chosen Superintendent; Wm. F. Cur tiss. Assistant; Victor Tanner, Librarian; and Tallmadge Swift, Secretary and Treas urer. Most of the classes made choice of their old teachers. The Sabbath School lesson took the place of the afternoon ser- vice.
 A son of Austin E Humphrey is sick with brain fever.
 Snow banks have not all left vet. We know of some more than one foot deep. "How is that for May" 4.
 Perhaps nothing added more to the suc- cess of the recent oratorio than the selec- tion of parts. The leader certainly dis played keen insight into human nature, and most of the actors and singers were those best qualified to personats the characters assigned them. This was es- pecially the case with the proud, scornful Perish, and the gentle sweet-voiced Flow CT Girl. The naughty Haman and the meek Mordecai were personated by the same performers difficult change of character for so young an actor to make.
 The cheese factory started last week.
 Mir. H. J. Taylor and family left town last week Tuesday for Washington, D. C., expecting to spend several months visiting friends in the Middle and Western States.

West Goshen.

The cold, wet weather is rather trying to farmers here; the most of whom have been able to blow but little. and very few oats are sowed yet.
 MT. W. M. Allyn. one of our mer- chants, is to have fine house built this season on the site of the McCabe place, formerly known as the Helmot Kellogg house, which has been taken down. MT. Grove Wooster builds barn on his place, formerly owned by Warren Brown.
 The cotton mill is running on full time.
 It IS all the more gratifying to read the poem, entitled "Land of Goshen, B from the West Goshen parsonage, in the Enquirer of last week and to find but one error, after reading the miserably dis torted affair in the Sentinel of two or three weeks since, by the same author
 A short time since, as Mir Lyman Richards, in the southwest part of the town, was burning over some low land, the fire became unmanageable and burned to the ground barn belonging to his son E. s. Richards. E.
 Correspondents will please take notice that remarks like these are calculated to hurt the feelings of the present proprietor of the Litch- field Sentinel.-ED.

4 prominent citizen in the northeastern part Of the town relates the following. He frequently went down to Bristol to trade, and usually carried some eggs. Ills mode was to place in basket layer of tow, and then layer of eggs; then an- other of tow, then another of eggs; and so on. This plan he pursued until one day when, on arriving home, he found a number of eggs under the seat, on the carriage bottom. They had been laid there by the hens. ard, rolling about more or less, had been taken to Bristol and back unbroken. ''After that said Uncle Seek. ''1 didn't stop to pack my eggs in tow, but simply piled 'em Tn and let 'em gol''
 Petitions for and againct the division of this town are again in circulation. Why don't the anti-divisionists act upon an en- larged idea, and call the women to their aid? It is scarcely to be doubted that they would, by a vast majority, pronounce in favor of s1aity.
