On Monday last, the 23d ult., Wm. Stu art went off the wall at the east end of Pomperaug Bridge with a horse and car riage, making descent of twelve feet to deep water. He was the only witness of the feat, and it is said the horse took fright and became unmanageable There are those, however, who think Stuart was driving very fast and ran the carriage against the end of the bridge with such force as to throw the horse of: The horse and carriage belong to MT.

 The very dry weather is the principal topic. Hay crop very light, pastures dry, milk and butter growing less, and the prospects for crops generally not at all fiattering; but the greatest anxiety seems to be among those who would raise tobac- | co, that least beneficial of all crops to the consumer.

 NIB. EDIroR:-On Saturday, the 2sth, we went to New Preston to attend the second base ball game of the series to be played between the ''Upson Seminary nine and the "Gunnery" nine. The game was very long, and when ended the Gun nery nine were victorious, the score stand ing 19 to, ,52 in their favor. We will say nothing to praise the vistors, except to express our astonishment and qualification at the easy catching of the center-fe1der. Several times the ball left the bat with great velocity, going very high, and when we were in almost breathless suspense as to whether it would be caught or not, the center-fieIder would s.take it' without fail.
 Enough about the game; let us refer to something more pleasant. When we left New Preston Hill-- jolly load-three things combined to make us very hilari-
 ous; our pleasant company, thoughts oi
 the game, and last but not least, mental
 visions of what was coming, or of what We were coming to. Reaching Mir. Up. sons, we unloaded and made free with his house and grounds for our pleasure. Presently we were called to table placed under the trees, and richly loaded, when being seated we soon 'smade way" with the good things provided for us We can not express our satisfaction and pleas ure sufficiently. We can simply say that
 our 'smental visions were so far surpas | sed by the reality that we were ashamed to own them. Our. best praise was that we did justice to the refreshments, es. pecially two of our number for whom we fear the consequences. We spent an hour or more very pleasantly; but we will not attempt to describe our pleasures.sut

Inc bill lowering the State tax one half, strikes us as it probably will all taxpayers, very favorably. We gather from the senate debate that one mill tax, together with the amount coming in from taxes on corporations, will pay all current expenses and leave S4OO, 900 to be applied in payment of the debt. At the end of eight years, with a one mill tax, the State would be out of debt, and the income from corporation taxes would just about pay the annual expenses of the State.

I7i "WhRt breeds OF stock are best 90 keep
for beef and dairy PurpOsesi"
The general conclusions were that the Dur
hams mixed with our native breeds were
best all things considered.
j, e. lIovey; Tho object sought after in
selecting breed of cattle is q combination
of all the best qualities in one grade. There
are various breeds, each having more or less
good qualities, us for instance the Doyons
make tho best working oxen, but they are
not excellent in any other respect. They
will tire out the best Morgan horse, but it
will take two cows of this class to give suiii-
oient milk for one calf They are also very
nice looking animals. The Ayrshires--they
are very good for milk, but inferior for beef.

robhing the Idaho stage, on the Both of
October last, have got into a dispute
among themselves as to who Is entitled
to the reward. The officers OF this
county who made the first arrest. by
which information was obtained which
led to the arrest OF Buckncr aud Nc
Comas, justly claim that they aie en-
titled to It. Burk, of Sacramento,
claims the reward for the arrest Of
Buckner, and the Deputy Sheriff at
Truckee of that for the arrest of Me-
Comas. Thus the matter stands at tho

a great deal has been said by members
about the clamor OF the press. and
about the duty Of not yielding to It;
while not a few back-pay grabbers, In
declaring that they should vote tor re-

from the most lofty and patriotic con.
alterations, aud not from any regard
for the o,amor Of the pres, for which

started for the scene or the homicide
to arrest Hubbard. These are all the
particulars OF which we are at present
in possession. but we shall probably
know more when the Deputy returns

RETRKNcHMRNT.-At the close Of
every year business men Of every sort
get q mania for retrenchment, often
effecting the smallest item OF expendl.
ture. This laudable intention gsner-
ally lasts two or three months, then
gradually dies away and the old state
Of affairs resume their sway. We End
no fault with movements OF this kind,
but We cannot see where the saving
comes In when advertising Is made the
subject Of spssmodio economy. The
c. p. r. r., In view OF their late do
feat and from the fact OF. many papers
being fearless and independent enough
to assert their dislike Of the meanest
monopoly under the face of the sun,
are sending letters TO every paper in
imical to their crushing monopoly,
ordering out their timetable adver-
tisement. Such has been the manner
by which they "get even" on their en-
emies. As we are not indebted to the
railroad tor a free pass, we claim the
right to tell the truth about them on
every occasion.-Whne Pine Ne,rs.
