 Where is He He?-Albert Beecher, of Brighton, Mass, after having about $3. 50 worth of THE NEWS sent to him, has left that place, and the postmaster does not know where he has gone. His conduct in this case seems very much like that of peo- pie who get into debt and then run away from it. Anyway it is satisfaction to know that such people are always poor, and they always will be poor, for the Almighty Rul- CT of the universe makes it a special busi- ness to see to it that the sneaking, dishon- est scamps of the world, are kept poor, and that those who have newspaper come to them two or three years and then leave the place and let the paper continue to be sent till the postmaster informs the publisher his paper is not taken from the office and the party is gone. and he don't know nor can't find out where, we say, that such as these are not only kept poor, but ''poor as lightning"
 New Time Table, 0. W. R. R A new time table has gone into effect on the Conn. Western road. The changes in which, are as follows: The Sunday evening milk tram, instead of returning to Winsted Sunday evening, remains m Millerton over night and runs as an early Monday morning train, leaving Millerton at 5,lO o'clock and arriving in Hartford at s,45. This change is for Monday mornings only. The other days in the week the train returns to Wins ted as heretofore, in the evening, leaving Millerton ten minutes earlier than before this new table was issued; viz. will leave that station at 40 instead of 7,50 P. n ,and passes Canaan at 8,3l o'clock. It would be a very convenient and desirable thing to do to run an early train from Millerton every morning in the week, Sundays excepted of course, connecting at Canaan with the early Housatonic train north, and at Wins. ted at z o'clock, with the early train into Hartford.
 The Ccurant's Libel.-The Hartford Courant is sued for &l0O.00O libel by Fur Der and Wiggin, officers of the Charter Oak Life Insurance Co.,, of that city. The af- fairs of thls life insurance company are be- ing pretty thoroughly overhauled. and il shows healthy sentiment amongst the influential citizens of this city of insurance companies, that when one of its companies becomes embarrassed, or in street parlance 'shakY," they grasp it at once and show nc disposition to conceal the facts as they ex- ist, and when it seems proper to do so, as appears to have been the case with the Charter Oak, they ''handle it without gloves;" and as Judge Wiggin ''teels the halter draw" he asks hundred thousand dollars for the Courant's playful remark that t...
 By the side of Furber and his instru ment, Wiggin, the Northampton bank rob bers are gentlemen and saints"
 Our bank account is distressingly slim, but we'll covenant and agree to loan the C0urant hundred thousand dollars in the event of it's becoming indebted to MT. Wig gin for that amount in this little matter.
