 "Where is Hawleyville ?" This ques tion has several times been propoundeC during the past week, first iu con. nection with the itinerary of the Con necticut Grand Army excursion to De troit, August 9, and later in connection with the through route from Brooklyn to Boston projected by the Housatonic and New England roads. Hawleyville on the map is an obscure little hamlet of some four hundred inhabitants in the township of Newtown, in Fairfield , county, about five miles northeast ot Danbury. But the little place has the good fortune to be a junction of the New England, the Housatonic and two or three branch roads, and if the Housa tonic succeeds in establishing through route from Brooklyn to Boston direct, by the way of tht Long Island road anc Wilson Point, Hawleyville may grow and flourish, and have a name among the railroad centers of the state.
