Such an array of choice fabrics of every description, the ladies will confirm the statement, was never before seen in this beautiful little city, the ninth seaport in the United States Such an array would take columns to describe in anything like detail, and then the half could not be told The millinery department was perfectly lovely, :" which expression was heard by the polite and affable attendants times without end during the day from the hosts of fashionable visitors. The display is fresh from Paris, 8 selection specially made by Miss Doherty, the head of the department. whose taste in selection was superadded to the regular ser vice of Brown, Bolton & Co., E resident Paris agent.

Borrowed Funds,

One day recently the Legislature not being in session, one of the well known employees at the Capitol was visited by man who in- troduced himself as Captain John Peck, of New Haven. The Capitol employe in early life had known the captain, who was in the employ of the New Haven and New York line of steamers. He attributed his non-re- membrance of the New Haven man to the long time which had elapsed since he had seen him last but as the visitor entered into conversation on old-time matters with fa- miliarity which removed every trace of doubt from the mind of the Hartford man, the latter was only too glad to loan him $12 to pay the expenses of continuation of his trip to Worcester, where he said he had just been ordered to go by telegraph on some business for his company The alleged cap tain, in giving due bill, said that if either of the New Haven representatives were in town he could easily borrow from them. The mans statement being doubted, the gentle man who loaned the money went to Col Fox, of this city, and found that he had been duped, and he then made for the train and grabbed the debtor, who, seeing that he was caught, shelled out the SIP.

Easter Opening at Mile. Johns'.

The announcement in the COURIER that Mile. Johns, the Parisian milliner, would have millinery opening on Wednesday, and Thursday of this week drew large numbers to her establishment, 161 Chapel street, Elliott House block And truly all that went were amply repaid, as such an array of lovely hats and bonnets as was displayed there was a sight seldom seen anywhere and fairly dag zled the ladies, many of whom made use of such exclamations as "How beautiful, :" "Isn't that superb" ''That's just too pretty for anything" etc., etc. If we had two or three pages we might fttingly describe the hats and bonnets displayed at Mile. Johns, but as we have not space we must be content with advising one and all to go at once and see for themselves the attractions at this model emporium of fashion.

Fair Haven.

The oyster market shows an upward ten- dency, and there is a prospect that choice stock will bring considerable more money in the near future. There are various contrib uting causes for this state of the trade. The Virginia trade is gradually drawing to 8 close for the season of 1881, and the demand on the Fair Haven trade is increasing in propor- tion as the demand increases on the northern markets every year at this time. The Mary land law that forbids the taking of oysters after April |, and the advent of the planting trade also, have their effect in the enhancing of prices. There have been 8 number of ar rivals from Virginia the past week, but not many cargoes are expected the present week, and there is but little stock in market Vir- ginia plants are arriving freely and the oys- termen are down the harbor every fine day busily engaged in laying down seed. Fair Haven and Oyster Point sloops and steamers are being put in order for business, and there is every indication pointing to a very busy season in the oyster business.

The play will also be given to- morrow afternoon and evening. sHAUGHRAUN.
 This evening and Saturday afternoon and evening MT. Dion Boucicault will appear at the New Haven Opera House in his own play, ''Shaughraun,'' and supported by his own company. The Boston Journal says: ''The play is too well known to re- quire particular mention snow, but it has charm of native shrewdness and humor, with a generous admixture of pathos, which is enough to explain satisfactorily it's remarka- ble success. The play (Shaughraun) is an excellent one and itrequires many repetitions before one begins to tire of it. MT. Bouci- cault's drama last night was as fresh and spontaneous as when it was first noticed The daredevil deep-hearted, whimsical and sincere vagRbond was enacted to the life, al- I ways amazing, but never without depth in his humor, and very personifed April of l pathos and mirth.' ]
