Aug. 21.—This has been a dull season at the watering places. At Watch Hill which has perhaps more natural ad- vartages for a sea side resort than any place on the Sound, there have not been very many visitors: Nor- wich and Hartford make up the ma- jority of the guests. Their interests being identical on the question of “bridges” and “sloop navigation,” people from the two towns agree ad- mirably, and all at Watch Hill agree that they send the prettiest girls and best fellows to this point, famous for summer flirtations. In years back the trouble with Watch Hill has been its hotels, but thecre is one here now, “The Plimpton House,"” kept by A. S. Plimpton, formerly of Hartford, that is acknowledged to be much better than anything ever had there before. Presented Church to Fitchville.
