Winston, March 8
The weather for the last two days has
been quite rainy and unpleasant, putting
quietus to tbe gardening business wbioh,
owing to the warm spring like weather,
had become the order of the day.
Tbe bustle and stir on our streets du
ring the past week, indicated s fine run
of business, both in tbe warehouses aod
io the stores.
Quite a number of ohanges hsve taken
plsce among our eitixeos. Mr. 8. H
Smith has moved into his new, ooxy aod
handsome residence on Shallow Ford
street. This building ia quite a stylish
arohitectnral design and finish, and is
oertsinly a great .improvement to that
portion of town where the beauty of
the adjacent dwelling waa so nueh mar
rid by tbat unsightly corner, asde so
firwaotoi suitable building, now so
well supplied by this new residence.
Mr. A. F. Benton oocupies the dwell

Mr Smith. Mr. R Cottin has rented
the property oo Cherry street, formerly
owned by Mr. Simms,
The Court House Square is reoeiving
a thorough ploughing preparatory to a

that tbia butt of so maoy bard jokes
bhould receive some attention, being in

town.
The stores iojured by tbe fire are not
ready to be occupied yet, aod may not
be tor weeks.
Mr. R. J. Reynolds has purchased
the floe pair of fast tvottain of Mr. H.

Tbe marriage ceremonies were per
formed in the sitting-room of tbe hotel
which was crowded to its utaiuat oapaci
ty with invited guests. The room bad
been tastily festooned and decorated
with rich evergreens, while above the
ojautel was to be seen standing out in
bold relief a beautiful circle of spruce
pine, io the center of whiob waa two
united hands, signifying the union of
hearts, while on either side were ever
green letters, 'D M ' Beiie.th this dis
play of ferns stood two large vases ol
flowers, as exqtiiiite as those we read of
having been io tbe vale of Cashmere
Space will not permit us to describe
tbe aoleina briltiuucy of tbe occasion, as
the glistening lights shown over fair
women and brave men. It seemed to
rival in gorgeous splendor and chivalry
the gathering at Belgium's oapitol
The bride's dress consisted of a hand
some costume, trimmed very elaborately
with shearing of white satin, lace, and
while flowers, with her urange wreath,
beautiful veil, ki£ slippers and o t r
gloves, made her one of tbe most charm
ing of brides.
Miss Dalton, first brides-maid, was
dressed in white alpaca, with triuuiiug*
of white silk. Miss Joyce, white bant
ing trimmod with satin. Miss Kates
and Mias Fitter, white, with trimmiugs
of lace and pink flowers.
The table (at which we did ourselves
justice) groaned under all the deleeaeies
of tbe day, consisting of ices, jellies,
floating island, Blance Mange custard,
handsome oakee, fruits, baskets filled
with confectioneries of sll kinds.
It, was, upon the whole, one of the
most festive occasions ever witnessed iu
Danbury, and all present will ever de
light to re-weld tbe associations of that
evening io the forge of memory.
May this the spring time of their
married life be prolific of pleasure and
happiness, their summer warm io af
feotiou and devotion to each other, their
autumn rioh with the fruits of industry
and prosperity, and their winter made
pleasant by the reoolleotion of a life Weil
spent.
