One of the most enjoyable pamphlets we have seen is that circulated by the Secretary of The Veteran Mason's Union Society, whose last meeting appears to have been held in New Haven.
 There are several short pithy poetical ad- dresses, the best by the Secretary himself. Rev. A. N. Lewis, an excellent biographical sketch of the late Dr. Remus Fowler, and another of Elder Atwell, a veteran born the same year as the Doctor, and who died few weeks after he did. A letter of advice the old clergyman wrote to the young divine, begins Avoid seeking ligh positions. The Savior was never but once on pinnacle. and then his company was not the same as he had in the manager Speaking of Dr. Fowler, his only grandson, Wm. F. Leavitt, was married, Thanksgiving day, in Orange City, Florida, to Miss Hattie, daughter of Dr. French of that place. On the same day, in Bristol, Henry s. Warehouse, of this place, was married to Miss C. Warner of Bristol The latter couple arrived in town on Saturday.

It has been said that the Cashmere is as essential to the wardrobe of we'll dressed la- dy as shoes to the feet. Messrs. W. B. Hall & Go. the leaders in the Dry Goods business in Bridgeport are distributing make of Cash meres throughout the state that seem to be worthy of mention. They are known as ''the Blooming Black Cashmere" and the wool from which they are made is grown where the at- 'moephere is moist and temperate, and where the sky is almost always overcast. For the reason the soft elastic and glossy qualities are retained in the flores of the wool. Consumers of these goods all remark upon the uniformity, brilliancy and beauty of color and the distin- gushing feature about them is that every thread of the warp and filling is spun to uni form fineness and always woven with the same number of threads to the inch. These goods are also made in colors and ladies would do we'll to send for samples of these goods We understand this firm do large order business in silks as we'll as cashmeres.
 The success of the Read Carpet Co.'S Car pets is something wonderful, commencing a few years ago making not more than five or six thousand yards per month they have in- creased to an enormous production which is all mediately taken up by such leading houses as A. T. Stewart 6 Co.,, & w. & s. Sloane, N Y. They are not only the handsomest designs, many of them rivalling the best Body Brus- sels, but they are superior in quality to any Carpet made, and are sold at prices lower than the same grade of any other make. David M. Read, of Bridgeport, is the sole agent for the United States, he supplies all other merchants with them and cuts them up to his Retail custimers at wholesale prices. --

 Rev. Mir. Crofut exchanged with Rev. Mir. Pierce, of Brookfeld, last Sunday.
 It is announced that the temperance soci- ety that was organized during the Murphy ex- citement, is to meet, next Friday evening, and elect officers. The society started well enough, but by discord among the members it became practically a failure. We fail to see who there are to elect the officers.
 Thanksgiving was ushered in by some disturbances. About five o'clock in the morn- ing, some darkies got into brawl, and when officer Maloney told them to be quiet, they assaulted him. Officers Ward and Planz soon appeared on the scene, and after some trouble succeeded in arresting the principals, Ned. Green and Charles Gordineer. Another of the assaulters by the name of Suwarrow got away and started for hls home in Sherman. In the afternoon, Ward and Melony went to Sherman and arrested him. In the evening they were brought before Justice Perry N. Hall, and Green and Gerdineer were bound over to the Superior Court in $2OO bonds. Suwarrow was fined three dollars and costs Gordineer obtained bail, but Green had to go to jail. It is about time such things were stopped.
 Thursday evening, Jackson, the aegro, who slipped from his coat the Saturday eve hing before, was taken before Justice Hall and fined. ROY
