OUR LITTLE TRIP TO THE VINE-
 YARD.

MONDAY MORNING. Sept. eth 1878.- The morning dawned bright and beauti- fui. The excursi on train on the Housatou- ic railroad for Rockaway Beach Is heard n the distance, coming as a reminder that an
 other train Tn which little party of fouI
 are moro particularly interested will soon
 put Tn an appearanoe, dispensing all traces
 of sleep we had hoped to secure during the
 previous nights. Leaving Canaan at six
 o'clock we enjoy the delightful scenery
 along the line of the Conn. Western road,
 unsurpassed by that of any other road in
 this vicinity. Frequent and recent show
 CTS are in our favor: no dust descernable
 save from the locomotive. Tho whole
 country dressed in living green" presents a lovely appearance, closely akin to mid tummer. No traces of frost among the fo-
 iiage on the distant hills to remind one of
 the approaching autumn. Ihave said that 'the morning was bright and beautiful' 30 It was until we reach the summit of Nor. folk hills. The skv becomes overcast with clouds and as we descend into the valleys beyond, dense fog arises from the streams aud lowland limiting our view exceedingly for a tune. Arriving in Hartford at S:45 we spend an hour strolling abont, visiting the court house. taking 0 nasty look at both exterior and interior of the magnit- cent structure. On the 10:5 train on the Hartford, Providence and Fishklll road we leave the city for a ride of ninety miles without change, and only brief stops. with

though thore was enough for all. No word of complaint was heard, for there was too much good dbreeding on tho part of the people there, but we consider it our duty to enter protest against the repetition ofsuch scenes The vet erans have already discussed the advisability of holding reunions outside the county where they can meet and see their comrades and pay their own entertainment rather than be long, CT subjected to the nuisance to which we have referred-of drawing such crowds that no vet ern can comfortably see his old comradc in arms, and necessitating such feeding of the hungry multitude.
 We hope our friends in Canaan, where the next reunion is to be held, will institute a needed reform in the matter, and confine their attentions to the veterans of the service and such others as by close relationship ought, by common courtesy, to share thefr hospitality.

REUNION EHE.t SECOND HEAV-
 IES.0
THE NEXT REUNION TO BE HELD IN NORTH
 CANAAN.

CANAAN.
 The 18th annual reunion of the 2d Con
 necticut Heavy Artillery was held in Litch-
 field last W ednesday under suspicious cir
 cumstances. and is pronounced one of the
 most successful and enjoyable eveIyway
 tbe Regiment has ever held. The usual
 programme was Observed-speech making,
 hand-shaking, recapituaion of reminiscen- ces of by-gone years, renewal of old ac-
 quaintances, and the occasion was one
 of memorable social enjoyment generally
 The more noteworthy features of the occa- sion were the speeches delivered by Hon.
 B. c. Andrews, Col. A. H. Fenn, and hls
 Exce'lency, Gov. Hubbard, which latter we give in another column. Next in in- teresI, if not in eloquence, was the cola- ,iou prepared by the patriotic ladies of L'tchtield, which was discussed by about
 l,70O. The business meeting was held at 8 p. m., when the various reports and pa pers of the regiment were submitted, letters from distinguished invited guests unable to to be present, were read, and tf3 next re- union was voted to be held at North Can aan. The following officers and committee were elect d for the ensuing year: Prcsi- dent, Charles H. Pine, of Ansonia; Wee President, David E Soule, of New Milford; Secretary, D. c. KiIbourn. Ltchfield Treasurer, Chas. w. Hinsdale, Litcbfield Executive Committee, E. s. Roberts, Geo. c. Capron, E. P. Smith, Lyman Dunning, A. T. Roraback, Charles II. Briggs, Geo. w. Cowdrey, and Col. J. B. Hardenbugh, regiment-being chosen for the purpose of facliating the work for the occasion.)
 The Winstcd Herald Cffers tho following Fers'''e suggestions which our people will uh VI T 10 observe:
 We as ume that the object of these gather ings is to give the veterans of the war an op- portunity to meet and renew the acquaint- ance formed in other years. We know it is their pleasure to meet also the widow of a comrade; the father. mothor or children or other near relatives of any deceased comrade, and we are sure that the patriotic and hospita- ble people of the towns where reunions are hold will checrfully entertain all of the class we have named. But to speak plainty of the matter we consider it little less than outrageous that the reunion of our county regiment, or of any similar organization, should be made the | occasion for hundreds upon hundreds of ill., l bred people to come together for no other ap- | parent purpose than to "sponge good din | ner on which they have no moro just claim | thanthey have on our pocketbook. Last year the l people of New Hartford, in their generosity, made provision for 1000 or 1,2OO guests-fve hundred more, probably than were entititled 0 share their hospitality. They made no complaint because 2,O00 people asked to be ed, for there was abundant provisions for that lumber. Wednesday at Litchfeld probably lot moro than 700 had any reasonable claim Q the generosity which was shown to 1,70o,

medicines and skillful nurses, and both commodities arc very scarce and very high priced during dangerous epidemic. Thirdly, the result of this disease is in a large number of cases, fatal. The dead must be buried, and funerals cost money at all times, but especially in the infected places where there is such pressing demand for even the simplest and plainest necessi- ties for decent burial. These, then, are the three purposes for which money is urg ently required. To feed and clothe the destitute, to buy medicines and hire nurses for the sick, who must die without them, to bury the dead, at least, decently. Is i, a great matter for community which is blessed with health and plenty for their wants, to contribute their mite for the re. lief of such places us are overwhelmed with destitutlon, disease. and death Mir. Bodley will gladly forward any contrbu- tions entrusted to him, and guarantees that no part of them shall be wasted or ill spent, but used for the purpose designated.
 We heartily endorse the reverend gentle mans appeal. and hope our patrons will re. spond literally, by leaving their contribu. tions, large and small, at either Camps drug store, or with Fuller & Peet. Don't forget twenty five cent pieces make dol lar, and better still, one hundred cents from each of twenty persons, will make twenty dollars. Let each one give what he can, whether it be five cents, or five dollars.
 To gratify the disappointed thousands who expected to participate in the temper ance celebration and picnic at Lakeville, week before last, another meeting is to be held at the same place on Friday of this week. Ex- tensive preparations have been made by the committee to make the meeting of great in: terest and profit to the friends of temper ance in this section of the country. The services of Rev. George Lansing Taylor, have Eeen secured to deliver the principal address of the day. MT. Taylor is a gifted speaker, and will fully meet the highest ex- pectations of those who are so fortunate as to hear him. He has achieved national reputation both as an orator and an author, hlS laoC PI"ulueAV cHRdSeueuL Dclng at Saratoga's Centennial celebration. After the address tbero will be short speeches, vocal and instrumental music, dinner, croquet, boating. swinging, etc. The ex- ercises will commence at l2 o'clock, and will come in the following order: Reception of visitors,

Following is an extract of letter writ
 ten by Rev. George Lansing Taylor, dur il 2 the sessIon of our recent camp meeting. published last week in the Wolcottville Register. In view of our juxtapositon to the features portrayed, we appropriate the article for the benefit of our readers :-
 Northwestern Connecticut is gem of landscape beauty. The smooth valley of the Housatonic river, trimmed with verdanl mountains, is as lovely us any ideal land scape eyer painted. At Canaan, in the widest and faIrest part of this valley, two railways intersect-the Housatonic, follow
 ing the valley north and south from Bridge port G., to Pittsfeld, Mass., and the Con- necticut Western, running east and west be- tween HarttGrd and the Hudson. Two miles south Of Canaan, between the Hous atomic railroad track and the eastern shore of the river, lies tiue young pine forest, surrounded by rich farms, and over looking the picturesque valley. Here lies Pine Grove cump.ground.
 We alight at ''Camp station" comfort able affair, and good gravel walk through lawn and grove, brings us to the encamp- Ineut in five minutes. Here are twenty two acres of ground. nearly all of it cover I'd with this beautiful second growth of white pine, from six to eighteen incl es Tn diameter, straight, and densely green. In bis fragrant bower is the camp circle, | surrounded by forty or fifty neat cottages, | be largest and pretticst not costing over | S2OO. There is a good prer chers' house, ts broad piszza constituting the preaching, tand, and facing the sloping bt nching ioI bout ?, 800 people. There is a good two tory lodging house with rooms single and louble, and large and well-kept boarding louse A masonry reservoir, fed by brings, supplied good water.
