ton takes place in Connecticut next Mon
day. Both parties are putting forth their
greatest efforts. Some thirty speakers on
each side are canvassing the State this
week. The State is close and the result
may be considered doubtful with the prob
abilities in favor of the Republicans. The
excitement is intense, and has never been
exceeded since 1910. The democracy dis
like to commence the campaign without the
pestige of single free State to begin with.
The pro-slavery merchants of New York
have sent on $4,000 TO buy the State. In
New Haven, Hartford, and Bridgeport the
Republicans have erected camps or great

SMALL Pox.-A case of small pox pops
up every now and then, caused, doubtless,
by the fact that for some years people have
too generally neglected vaccination. Every
body should see to this at once. We hear
of one case in South Woodstock, and there
has recently been one of mild form in Bar
louisville, and another in Chester about five
miles from the village on the road leading
To- north Windham.

SOUTH LoNDoNDERRY.-Busi in
South Londonderry is lively this spring,
more so than usual. The location of the
Town House, or rather the building of it,
adds considerable to the active spirit of the
place. The Baptist church and society are
building parsonage on the same street of
the Town House, and when these are erect
ed it will make quite an addition to the APP
pearance of the village. One thing more
is lacking, and that is good commcdious,
well kept Hotel. There is grand open
ing here for an enterprising man to start
the thing.

ARREST IN BRIpGwATEI.-A cores
pondcnt gives US an account of most 6ru-
tai outrage of father upon his own daush-
ter in Bridgwater. 1t appears that one Jo-
,iah =. Willard was arrested on charge OF
rape and adultery with and upon his own
daughtrr-Sarah, a girl yet under fifteen
years of age. 1t appeared from the 'estl-
mony that he had for some months been IN
the habit of compelling her to compliance
with his brutal wishes. aud that she had al
ways resisted all in her power, and on Sat
urdav night, March 18th, she escaped from
him and informed her mother who called
in neghbor for assistance. The girls tes-
iimony against her father was straight
forward, and she bore rigid cross-examln-
alton without varying in any particular.
He was examined before justice q. A.
Marsh, and hel to bail in the sum of $1,000,
in default of which was committed to Jail
at Woodstock.

QUESTION SETrLED.-The vexed ques-
ton as to the proper pronunciation of the
word inquiry was settled the other day in
the z. s. Senate, in a manner approaching
in dignity almost to legislative enactment.
Mr.. Hale, in offering a resolution, said it
was one Of Enquiry placing the accent OF
the first syllable, as is the habit of some
senators. Upon this, Mr.. Sumner, who
sits next to Mr.. Hale, said, sufficiently
loud for his friends to hear, Please say in
qairy!' emphasizing the second syllable
according to Webster. Mr.. Hale, who was
still upon his feet, said, Inquiry / mean.

quiry!

One Aaron Kellogg, was arrested, tried
and fined $40 90 and costs last week. for
stealing corn. 1t seems he had been in the
habit of going into the upper part of the
grist mill, owned by Messrs. Benson &
Whitman, and taking corn and carrying ii
down stairs and selling it to these GENTLE
men. They suspected him and laid little
trap for him by sprinkling some rye on the
top ofihe corn. He acknowledged the corn
when arrested and the result was as above.
