Lower City lHuntsviIIel.,

Gu Tuesday, Sept. 12th, at the residence ot Mir. Wm. H. Blodgett, father of the bride. Rev. w. c. Smith united Frederick W. Kingsley, of Pittsield, Mass, in mar riage to Miss Hattie E. Blodgett, of Hunts vile, Conn. Quite large number of friends were present on the happy occasion and enjoyed themselves greatly, as wedding parties are wont to do. MT. Kingsley is veteran engineer on the Housatonic rail road, having served in that capacity for the past twelve years. His steady hand and watchful eye has made his train very popular and favorite one with the travell- ing public, no serious accident having oc- cured within that time. The many rich and costly presents that kind friends brought with them on this festive occa- sion showed how much he and his worthy bride were loved and respected. You we'll may say, MT. Editor, ''The cake was de- licious," for had you been there to see the quantity and variety all just as delicious, you would have been still more astonished and delighted. The flowers were simply beautiful, and testified to the love of friends who could not be present. Both have a large circle of friends who wish them 8 happy and prosperous future.

If we are to have competition in our business it would not be discreet to permit it to oc cupy the most advantageous position. Ca naan, on account of it's railway facilities, IS nearer to seventeen of our twenty-three villages than Salisbury, and should an op- position journal be published at that point in our field, it would probably operate sad ly to cur disadvantage, for people seldom drive their horses through cne river to get to the second one to drink, if the water in the first IS good
 Therefore we have concluded to remove our newspaper and printing office to Ca man, and hope we have succeeded in mak- ing 1t clear to the minds of our readers that we do so because we feel compelled by the force ot circumstances to make the change. we are not going out of our field, but to another point, to another village which is fortunate in being more nearly the centre, and which is most accessible to aU our patrons. The CONN. WESTERN NEWS has not been exclusively Salisbury paper, nor shall It ID the future be Canaan paper, but home journal for all of North Western Connecticut.
 Be kind enough to indulge US in one word more, for it is due to the good people ot Salisbury to say that we do not by any means remove our office and business to another locality in our field, because we have not been supported here. Our success in our enterprise for the past five years, and over, that we have been engaged in it., has been far beyond our most sanguine an ticirations. This support it is of course understood has not come entirely from Salisbury. but the town has gwen us its generous pro ratG, and we have succeeded here, and certainly have great reason to re joice that we began the publication of our paper in Salisbury, and are deeply indebted to many of it's citizens for their good coun- sells and advice, which have;frequently been sought by us, and have been greatly to our advantage and interest to profit by.
 The presses, type and fixtures will be re- moved the latter part of next week. One more paper will be printed in Salisbury, but the CONNECTICUT WESTERN NEWS of October 18th, 1876, will be printed in Ca naan.

TWEED CoMING.-The United States ship Franklin has been ordered py the Govern ment to delay her trip home from the Med
 iterranean long enough to take on board at Vigo, Wm. M. Tweed. She was intercepted at Gibraltar few days since, and the ne
 cessary orders given. Tie Franklin had just been relieved as the flagship of the Mediterranean Squadron, and was ordered to New York. She arrived at Villa Franca, on September 9, from Spezzia, to which place she came from Leghorn. On the 14th Admiral Worden transferred his flag to the Marion as the flagship, and the Franklin sailed for New York, stopping only at Gib- raltar on being intercepted by despatches sent from here through the Legation at Mad rid. The Government now regards Tweed as it's prisoner, and will hand him over to the New York State authorities on his ar rival in New York, some twenty days hence.

| THE ENCORE" By L, O. Emerson. book for singing classes. Published by Ditson & Co. Price 75 cts.
 | This strange title suggests the fact that all the straightforward titles to singing books are used up,-which is fact. But to Mir. Emerson, whose success as compiler has caused him again and again to be called out before the applaudlng public, "encore" is familiar word.
 The work, by an accomplished singing class teacher, is for singing schools. What can be pleasanter than real, wide awake, old fashioned singing schooll
 But while the Encore" provides for the pleasure of classes, 1t has excellent instruc- tive qualities, as may be seen by the follow ing description:
 The first fifty pages contain tho usual | singing school course, or course Tn musical notation. No attempt is made to explain matters to teachers, but abundant material is placed ready for their use. There are about seYenty-ive exercises, tunes, airs and solfeggios, most of them furnished with words. After them we have nearly hun dred pages filled with barmonized songs, glees, etc., all easy enough for singing classes, and very wide awake in character, constituting really good, easy glee book. We have also about fifty pages of sacred music-about one hundred pieces-includ- ing psalm tunes, chants and anthems.
 We are tempted to expose the one defect of the work. 1t is so entertaining, varied, pleasing <throughout that lively singing school will almost teach itself therefrom. This is bad as it may cause undue indolence on the part of the teacher. But then this is defect that we can bear with.

Sheffield.

SncAAAOAUs
 A weight of gloom is cast on the society of Sheffield, by the failure of Lucius Little, whom everyone has been accustomed for so long to consider as sound and reliable as the bank of Mahaiwe itself. A meeting of his creditors was called last Thursday, but the investigations not proving very satisfac- tory, an adjournment was made to thls week. The decision is awaited with much anxiety, though it is the general belief that in MT. Little we have just man, who in- tends no wrong to any one.......Considera- ble mischief is being done by a set ot un- known villains who liking the darkness prowl about our streets removing gates from pr1vate yards and carrying them into the middle of the street. They entered one yard and maliciously cut in pieces nice tent which had been erected for the benefit of the children. It is reported that Dr. Miller has offered large reward for the detection of the rascals who blackened his house with paint few weeks since. The public generally hope the guilty parties may be arrested, for it was villainous act and deserves heavy punishment......M Many hereabout have been to the Centennial and others are waiting for October days ln which to enjoy the greatest sights the United States ever offered to her sons and daughters. Compared with the good re- ceiYed the expense is small indeed, tor an expenditure of $2O is sufficient to enable one to pass four days there, and gain clear idea of the whole. Who would not deny themselves the new winter dress and hat in order to go? Try it nd sec how well it pays. L.

The NOrthffeId Robbers.

Four of the robbers who recently raided on the bank of Northfield, Minn., and kill ed the teller, but who everybody supposed had escaped beyond the probability of cap ture, were overhauled about eight miles from Madelia, Wantonwon county, Minn Thursday, and one of them was killed, while the other three were wounded. These are half of the original party, who were lost track of in the recent pursuit in the timber around Mankato, and two of the living ones are, by their own confession, the notorious Younger brothers, but they decline to give the name of their dead com rade.
 The four robbers went to house about seven miles north of Madelia about seven o'clock Thursday morning, bought some bread and butter, and started west on foot Help was sent for as fast as horse could travel, and 40 or 50 men were after them as soon as they could get horses and arms. They drove them into slough about eight miles north of the pace, and afterward had them out on prairie and opened fire on them. Tie robbers returned the fire, but kept working toward the river, and at last got there and hid in the bushes. By this time the pursuers were all together, and surrounded by bushes, and the firing became general, our men advancing all the time At last the robbers saw there was no use and gave up. One was killed, and of the other three, one had wound in the arm, one that is supposed to be Cole Younger is wounded badly in the hand and back, and the other has bad wound in the Jaw and one in the shoulder. It is thought that one, and perhaps two, will die. One of them has sn old wound in the arm, and he is supposed to be one of those wounded al Northfield the day of lhe attempted rob bery. Capt Murphy of the pursuing par ty was wounded in the side, and George Bradford's arm is scratched. but they art both only slightly hurt Coy. Pillsbury of Minnesota, now at Philadelphia, ha telegraphed the local officers at Madelia tt at once send the wounded robbers and tn
 body ot tie dead one to St. Paul.

A very modest young lady, who wanted a pair of garters, addressed the shopman thus;-''It is my desire to obtain a pair of circular, elastic appendages, capable of be- ing contracted or expanded by means of os- cilating furnished steel appliances, that sparkle like particles of gold leaf set with Alaska diamonds, and which are utilized for retaining in proper position the habili- ments of the lower extremities, which in- nate delicacy forbids me to mention.
