The singing of Methodism, SAYS the
Pittsburg AdUocate, FUSED to be grand
a glory and power. 1t is not so any
more. Ichabod is written on 1t. Some
Delilah has had it In her lap. That De-
lilah is the modern choir. Tt has done
a miserable work-it has well-nigh des-
troyed congregational singing. 1t has
given us substitute. And what sub
stitute it is! Solos, duets, quartettes,
and a ceaseless succession of new tunes,
many of them executed after the most
approved operate style. The congre-
CATION sits by and silently witnesses the
performance. That might do sweli
enough for an opera-house, but it cer-
tainly i'll Defits Gods sanctuary"
The remedy suggested is that the
choirs limit themselves to selection of
the grandest old congregational tunes
whole people to their accurate use.
They could then add, Occasionally, to
the lists, and thus have the best with
sufficient variation and Incl ease, and
adequate training of the people.-N. y.

Quite a number of the subordinate
Oranges Of Iowa have incorporated into
their constitutions a clause binding
members in cases where difference occur
between them, to submit i'm all cases to
the decision of arbitrators. This they
rigidly adhere to, and law suits are be-
coming things almost unknown, and the
lawyers and courts find little to do. A
member who refuses to abide by the
pledge he, taxes in this regard when he
signs the constitution, is considered to
have o greater regard for law than just
tice, and Is a subject for Grange disci-
pline even to expulsion. The feature of
Grange management cannot betoo high
ly extolled nor too widely adopted
among the subordinatcs. If we could
get at the expense of litigation among
farmers-the lawyers and court fees,
the time squandered, to say nothing OF
the ill-feeling and permanent enmity re.
shifting in the rupture Of social inter.
course, which is so palpably essential to
growth in morals and happiness-we
Z have no doubt It. would be found to &C
a long way towards paying the farm

INTERESTING INSURANCE CAsE.-Not long since there was tried before Justice Twiss the case of the State Treasurer vs. Daniel Healey, an insurance agent, charged with violating law of this state regarding the manner in which agents shall issue policies for foreign or out of the state companies. Charles Policeman was counsel for Healy and F. M. Tyler for the state. MT. Twiss found Healy guilty of the violation charged, and imposed fine of $lo0. An appeal was taken and the case will probs. ply go up to the highest court, where the constitutionalty of the law under which Healy was convicted, will undoubtedly be tested, There are large number of the same klnd of cases to be tried against Mir. Realy if the justice's judgment is sustained oy the higher courts. The question is a very important one to insurance men.- Palladium.

E@rmersS Reunion.

MR. EDITOR Ut is proposed that the next meeting of the Farmers Reunion be held at such place as shall first offer the best accommodations to those who may wish to attend that meeting. Two meet ings have already been held in Litch6eld and it is found that the time of one day is too short for the amount of business that is expected to come before the meeting next to be held, and it has been suggested that some of the towns little remote from Litchfield would be glad to invite the farm CTS to meet with them and hold the meet ing, both in the afternoon and evening and remain through the night with them. The Farmers club of North Cornwall last win ter held meeting of this kind and fell well paid for what they did in the lively time and good cheer of those who attend ed. A number of the towns of the county have organized farmers clubs auxiliary tc this which it is hoped and expected will be fully represented at the reunion. Will Washington, or Watertown, or New Mil ford, or Winsted, or Salisbury, or Falls Village invite the reunion to meet with them. It is believed that either of them would feel we'll paid for their trouble in doing so. Other towns need not wait for them but forward their invitations through the county papers.
 MT. Editor: We are in receipt of com .munieation from K. w. Gunnison, secre- tary of Grange 2sl. Fairfax, Linn Co.,, Iowa. Have written to him in relation to the subject of sending their wheat and corn direct from the producer to the consumer Much of the flour now used in Cornwall is made at Colds mills from wheat bought by the car load from the west, from which the best flour we have ever had in this town is made. As soon as suitable arrangements can be made with some of tie Grauges west, 1t Is believed that the best of wheat flour can be made at least two dollars pel bbl. less than now; also our corn which can now be bought of the producers at 1s cents per bushel in Illinois. should not, even with the freights at present ruling SC high. be over 60 cents per bushel. A part of the business of the next meeting will be to see if some arrangement cannot be made by which the milk producer can get his feed for much less price than at present. Some of our milk producers in West Corn wall got their bran for nineteen dollars pel ton, while some of the milk-men on the Harlem paid as high as twenty-eight. There IS no reason why we should not get our bran at twenty dollars per ton by the aid of cooperation. As soon as an arrsngemen, can be made for system of cooperation on all the lines of railroad running through Litchfield county it is believed that thou sands of dollars may be saved annually to the producers of milk.
 The time has come when every town in the county should organize farmers club to be held in the coming winter at least twice month. The farmers club of North Cornwall will no doubt be re-organ- ized next week, and be ready for the dis cussion of any subject of interest to the farmer. T. L. HART.
