 The democrats of this part of the town assembled at the Oronoco House last Saturday night, formed procession, and preceded by fife and drum, marched to the residence of representative elect Josiah Converse, to congratulate him on election. On Monday night they visited West Stafford to pay their respects to John l.. Fairman, the representative from the west parish. Senator Converse and Governor Hyde have also been visited by their friends since election.
 The old members of the Stafford Springs Brass Band met last Saturday evening to consider the question of reviving the band. It was found that the majority of the former members were yet residents of this village, ready to join new organiza- tion and in favor of employing teacher, and filling up the vacancies with new re- cruits. At the breaking out of the war this band had acquired considerable pro- ficiency, but like such institutions in al- most other places, their numbers were so reduced by enlistments and removals, that it was impossible to keep up the or ganization. With so many members who have already been under instructions, it will probably be but a very short time be- fore we have band whose enliving strains will be great relief from the monotony of the ordinary routine of events. To bring this about the members will have to devote considerable time and incur considerable expense for lessons, music repairs of instruments and expenses of meetings. They will cheerfully devote their time, and bear a fair share of the necessary expenses, but ask, we think justly, that the citizens of the place also put their. hands in their pockets and aid in establishing so desirable an institu- tion. All who feel willing to assist them will find W. c. Fowler ready to receive | and acknowledge their favors.

GOLDEN WEDDING
 ANNIVERSARY OF MIR. AND MRS. EDMUND JoSLYN, OF TOTI,AND

The golden wedding anniversary of MT. and Mrs. Edmund Joslyn, of Holland, was celebrated on Tuesday of last week by reception from three to seven o'clock, p. m. Two hundred invitations were issued for the occasion, and about one hundred were present to do honor to this couple, who have for fifty years resided in Tol- land. After most of the guests had ar- rived, about four o'clock, the company was called to order and short poem re- cited by Mary Leonard, daughter of MT. and Mrs. O. A. Leonard, and granddaugh- ter of MT. and Mrs. Joslyn. A short pray CT was offered by Rev. A. H. Post, after which a poem, written for the occasion by Mrs. Lucius s. Fuller, was read by her, and an address by Hon. Edward E. Full Ter was delivered, which is given below.
 In a neat speech, Gen. Chas. M. Joslyn, thanked the guests in a very graceful way for their presence and good wishes. After these exercises were finished refreshments were served, with G. F. Kibbe, of the Kibbe house, as caterer, and social time enjoyed until about seven o'clock, when the party dispersed, wishing the host and hostess many added years of happiness and prosperity.
 Many handsome and valuable presents were received, including an elegant French clock from members of the Holland grange, in which MT. and Mrs. Joslyn take a deep interest, two water sets, a gold watch, gold-bowed eyeglasses, @ sofa pillow, bon-bon spoons, gravy spoons, books, vases, tidies, and many other gifts, both useful and ornamental, besides sev- eral sums of'money. A number of guests were present from out-of-town, and all extended best wishes to the bride and groom of fifty years ago.
 MT. Joslyn has been identified with most of the interests of the town for the last half century, having heid most of the prominent offices, and is widely known throughout the county and state.
