At recent examination of one of the
schools in Washington, the question was
put to a class of small boys "Why is the
Connecticut river go called?" when a
bright little fellow put up his hand. "Do

cause it connects Vermont and New
Hampshire, and cuts through Massachu-
setts!" was the triumphant reply.
The Weekses of Lyndon, now in bank
ruptcy have compromised with their
creditors by paying 25 cents on the dollar.

The New Trial.

THE TILToNIANs PROMISE A SENSATION.
New YORK, Aug. 8.
Mr.. Morris, counsel of Tilton, says un-
doubtedly the new trial will be short, as
they propose now to try Beecher for adul-
terry, as he had been tried on several outside
collateral matters. He says there is
TESTIMONY OF GREAT IMPORTANCE
which will materially alter the complexion
of things and which will prove Beecher
guilty. Gen. Pryor says if 1ilton had not
called this case the Congregational church
would have acted on it and that three
leading witnesses of the next trial will be
Lees, the druggist; Henry G. Bowen, and
Joseph G. Richards, Mrs. Tiltons brother.
Until late last evening Tilton did not know
of the new move in the case.

Cereal Crops in Europe.

LONDON, Aug. 3.
The Mark Lane Express, in Its weekly
review of the corn trade, says The cereal
crop, Just reaching maturity, has been
saved by fine weather. We may vet have
a moderate harvest in good order. The
upward movement has stopped and prices
have relapsed, partly in consequence of
foreign arrivals, which are unusually free,
but current rates scarcely reach the aver
age and are still below those of last year.
The harvest in France is progressing rapid
ly, but general reports indicate less than a
fair average yield, although in Paris and
Marsellles prices have fallen two shillings.
Belgian and German markets show a SINH
lar change. Official accounts of crops in
Austria and Hungary show there is more
likelihood of deficiency than usual.

Wedding Reception.

We had the pleasure, on Friday evening
last, of attending the marriage reception
given by Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. M. Partch, of
the New Haven house, at their hospitable
home in honor Of the marriage of their son,
Mr.. Carleton NJ. Partch. The reception
was the most recherche of the season. Ar
irving at nine o'clock We found the parlors
well filled with company of some 300
guests. The smiling faces of the bride and
bridegroom, together with the groomsman,
Ion Love, and lady. betokened hearty
welcome for all.
The company passed the evening socially
and, judging from myself, happily and
pleasantly. After refreshments the guests
quietly departed. The occasion was one
to be remembered by all. The floral de-
monstrations were elegant, indicating rare
good taste on the part of those who pre-
pared them. Mr.. Partch 10 one of our
most enterprising young men, and we wish
him and his accomplished and amiable
bride much happiness in their united flu
ture. JACK.

STATES PRISON GOSSIP.
0. B. Clark---John p. Phair.
FAIRHAyRN. August 9.

FAIRHAvRN, August 2.
In the fall of 1878 Judge Wheeler
thought 1t would be for the advantage of
young man in this place to spend two years
at the state literary institution at Windsor,
and gave him letters of credit for a two
years sojourn at the expense of the state.
He was rather of smart young man, and
an apt scholar, and completed the course
in twenty-one instead of twenty-four
months, allowed by the judge, and re-
turned on Tuesday last. He speaks In
high terms of all the teachers and of their
Willingness to assist the pupils when they
evince any desire to learn. He thinks,
perhaps, the principal of the school may at
times be a little austere; but the under
teachers, he says, are very kind, yet de-
mand strict obedience to all the rules of
the school. He is also loud IN his praise of
w. NJ. Field and his teachers in the prepa-
ratory school at Rutland, and speaks of
their uniform kindness.
He says while at school he formed the
acquaintance of one o. B. Clark, an ex-
tepsive sheep dealer, and man who, l
think, had some business transactions with
the Rutland county national bank, several
years since. He says Clark's business now
is repairing soles for men. He intends to
graduate next spring and expects to leave
with all the honors of the institution.
He also formed an acquaintance with one
John p. Phair, formerly of Rutland. On
the 4th of last July the school were allowed
to meet in the Park and were for or
hours free from the restraint of the rules
of the school. Holding quiet chat with
said Phair, he was told by Phair that he
did not set Mrs. Freese's house on fire, that
was done by another, but that he obtained
seventeen hundred dollars in the operation.
He neither denied nor admitted that he
committed the deed, but how did he get
the money unless he was there write
this hoping 1t will be another link in the
chain of evidence that appeared to be want
ing at the trial. Surely the young man
could have no object in misrepresenting
Phair, and he told 1t in the presence Of
Rutland merchant. 1t will be well that
have written this if it serves 10 satisfy or
clear up the Gaze to any who may have
been in doubt as to the justice of Phair's
sentence. admit that have had serious
doubts since the trial. s.
