STRATF0RD, CT., June 20, s..

STRATFoRD, CT, June 90, s..
Four weeks at Stratford have
put me en- rapport with all the ms
and outs Of this interesting locality.
1t is one Of the stillest, quietest
places on top Of the greerearth, with
the exception Of the screech Of the
locomotive, and that sound is al
ways on or in the air, no other is
heard. Silence broods over the
silent place, and i we should be
asked where can rest be found, I"
we would emphatically reply here,
at Stratford. Men and women
traverse the streets, passing each
other without q word, one would
imagine that no one knows his fell
low. The merry shout Of 4 boy is
never heard, neither are they seen
lettering about the streets, they
never get into trouble Of any kind,
never tear their pants, nor wear
holes in their knees playing mar
bles, the game Of humble the-peg
is unknown to them, peek could
not find q mate to his bad boy
here" We have heard but one
dog bark in the four weeks, and
the midnight meowing Of Thomas
cats would cause the StratIordites
to grow wild; the cats know better
than to behave unruly. Even Sir,
chaNticleer is not rs ambitious and
beilicose rs those at home, they
seldom flap their wings OF crow.
We know not whether this rcmarka'
bic state OF things is brought about
b. the repeated and never ceasing
schreech of locomotives or not. 1t
may be so; and that people, ami
mails, birds, and even small boys
think that this noise is sufficient.
1t is only the streets we allude to
that are so marked by silence, in
doors here the people live, move
and have their beings the same as
other people, and we have found
those with whom We have come IN
contact, very agreeable, and unusu'
ally intelligent. This cause arises
from the fact that the Northern
people are q reading people-unlcss
when at work they have q paper Or
book always in hand, some even
place q book in rest and read ard
work at the same time.
We went afshing, and thereby hug
the tale which will lie related. This
sport had been contemplated foI
several days, but the weather which
cannot be controlled, proved day
after day unfayorable. At length the
clouds were all rolled back, and
securely pinned, and the sun smiled
