 Was that what you were trying to illus trat on Monday evening of last week, Ma jor? If so our advice as friend is. to stick to the stump and avoid the procession BSJ~ The Falls Village Democratic meet ing of last week is said to havo boon 8 large affair; from 5000 to 5000 present. Hon. W. A. Barnum chartered special trains at his private expense. to run the whole length of the Housatonic road. The excursion ticket was only 9 cts. Ism that retailing tho combined cloqnence of Tilden, Brooks, Babcok and Bluuum, at a wonderfully low figure?
