 DEAR SIR: - To day the democrats, with the help of P. T. Barnums speech, and the non -partizan votes of few re publican members, have secured Henry c. Miles of Milford as Commissioner of the School Fund for the next three years. He is honest and capable, and the republican members who voted for him are entitled to the respect of all men. The women suffragists presented their grievances to the suffrage committee in the Representative Hall yesterday with their usual eloquence. MT. Joseph Shel- don of New Haven was the most forci- ble speaker The COWS and calves of the Glastonbury sisters were discussed, as usual, by their owners. The old ladies may live to see the day when they are the equals of men in representation with taxation, but we think it doubtful. We would surrender to them our right to vote, if they would deed us their prop ertys and we would pay all taxes upon it without dissent. We would rather that every woman's property in the Uni ted States should be exempt from taxa ton, than that they should enter the po- litical arena and weaken the moral influ- ence they now have. If there are too many voters already, why double the number? Senator Wm, II. Barnum was before the Railroad Committee to-day to oppose the passage of the bill to prevent stop charges" and higher tariffs for ''shorter than for. longer distances. |" Geo. W. Peet, Wm. D. Bishop and other prominent men appeared to oppose it. The friends of the tbill have not urged it's passage as they perhaps ought to have done. No further hearing can now be had. A substitute bill may be offered. The dogs are being canvassed thorough ly by the Agricultural Committee, with out any agreement of action on the nu- merous bills. The friends of the ''dog bills' are invited to appear next We'd nesday before the committee, to help de- wise some better way te meet the great question than has as yet been proposed.

There was to have been gathering of young people at the house of Mir. George Barnes last Friday evening. but the weather being stormy it was postponed until some night this week.
 Washburn's show was at the Town Hall last Thursday night 1t rain ed and was quite dark; but, ia spite of the weather, they had crowded house. Quite a number from this village attend . ed the show.
 Checkers" seem to be all the rage. Messrs. Bunel and Haytes of Oakyille acame over to play with our Woodbury boys. Games were as follows: Mir. Bu- nell and MT. W. Mitchel, games, the latter got of them Mir. Haytes and B. Murphy 6, they were even games; Mir. Haytcs and W. Michel 3 games and 1 draw, the latter had two of the games |; Mr. Bunell and John Sherman 10, there was some dispute each party claiming the ,'odd game, but it is believed that they were even games.
 We have had very hard rain storm, and it has done considerable damage on the roads. The roads about here were quite bad enough before the rain. Street lamps may be ornamental, but are not made useful in this village
 Farmers are little behind time iu get ting up their wood-pile. They are wait ing for more snow, so ss to draw it on aheir sleds.
 If you are in want of horse, ,phaeton, sleigh, business wagon, or set of wag- son wheels, call on Betis, the harness na- ,ker.

present excitement a man who owns dog which goes of in thls way, would appear 10 much better advantage if he was to make an effort to find said dog, and restrain him from doing further damage, rather than stand around in an indifferent manner, not seeming to care where the dog is or what be is doing. Last Friday night Willie Hayes came up to See how high tho river was, and on his way home he stepped into George CaRheld's honse and stald until about 10 o'clock ?. h.; then lighting his lantern he started for home. Garfield says he had been out Of the house perhaps three minutes, when he heard scream, and immediately after young Hayes reap peared inside his door he had been bit. len by some dog, whether mad or not no one Is able to say, as it was 80 darR noth. ing could be seen. and Hayes dropped his lantern as soon as the dog seized him. Candcld dressed the wound with soft soap as that was the nearest approach to caustic which he had at hand. mis- trust that neither Hayes or Garfield dared go after the doctor, and so got along without one as best they could but this is only guess work.
 Saturday morning two of our justices --G. T. Pierce and Geo II. Can6eld- met at the town clerks office, and after giving the matter due consideration post, ed notice on the three different sign. posts of the town, to the effect that all dogs found at large after, and including the Gth day of February, and for sixty days thereafter, without being securely muzzled, would be killed, and authoriz. ing any one to kill them at sight So, you see, Southbury has finally got on a par with the rest of the towns in the State on the dog question.

The times are SO Lard that news con tinues to be scarce in this locality. "Washburn's Last Sensation" has been around again, and drew full house as usual.
 A case of considerable interest, though involving but small amount pecuniari. ly, was tried before Justice Martin last week. A husband gave bail for color ed man at the Lilch6eld Superior Court. When they returned home they found the house in which the colored man had lived burned to the ground. The bonds man desired to have the colored man get a place in the neighborhood to live In, ESQ he could keep his eye on him." and also have his services on the farm owned jointly by himself and wife, and oecu- pied by them as homestead. The wife seemed to be helpmeet indeed she went and hired house for tue colored man, agreeing to pay the rent, with the Knowledge and consent of her husband ; but the husband did not otherwise bind himself to pay the rent. Uuder recent statute, the owner of the house sued both husband and wife, aud the question al issue was, whether under this state of facts the defendants, or either of them, were liable to pay the rent. Justice Mar tin decided the case in favor of the de- tendants. An appeal will probably be taken = Colhren tor the plaintiff and Huntington for the defendants.
 Another case has been tried in this county within year past that possessed considerable interest. The question in the case was, who recei ved lease of certain farm whether it was a grown man, twenty six years of age, who osten- .sibly had possession and conducted busi- ness as any lessee might, or whether it was his sister, girl of nineteen, who kept house for her brother, and who claimed to be acting as the agent of her mother, who lived in neighboring state
