wOODBURY.

May of 1880 with it's extreme heat for suc- cessive days, at 94 degrees, will be long re- membered. Among the incidents of the month was tea party on the evening of the 9th, at the ''old Parsonage house" built in 1700 for Rev. ADthony Stoddard, pastor of the First church, who occupied it for more than sixty years. Remarks and narration of incidents connected with its history, by MT. Cothren on that occasion, reported in the Waterbury American of May 14th, explain the interest felt in the old house and it's history. It has snce been pulled down." nothing now re- maining but the base of the huge stone chim- ney, which is also soon to be removed. The old house is believed to be the oldest but one in the Staee, that being the old stone house at Guilf1rd.
 Memorial day was quietly and suitably observed. Each soldiers grave was marked by flag, the children of the IA public schools scattered flowers over each one. There was prayer and appropriate remarks at the North cemetery, after which those who had gather cd, scattered to the homes those brave men sacrificed so much to secure for them.
 -WOOdbury continues to lose men she can i'll afford to spare. Another who has borne the burden and heat of the day, and passed on to good old ago." has during the last week entered into rest. On the morning of June 1osh. Mir. Joseph Frederick Walker, at the age Of 1eariy seventy four years, was called up higher. His whole life had been spent here, and for nearly half century in connection with the North Congregational church, an &C., tive. efficient member. His removal causes a vacancy not easily filled, and the example of his life is enc that young men would do we'll to initiate. and So be fitted to take mp the bur dens which the fathers 80 frequently, during these last few years, have laid down. His funeral was at the church, Sunday afternoon, Rev. Mir. Wyckoffe, the pastor, taking as text for remark, Ps- 12:1, Help Lord, for :he god ly man ceaseth," tSc. Remarks were added by Rev. Wm. T. Bacon, of Derby, life long friend of Mir Walker.

 The results of soundings over the bed of the Atlantic have made clear, it is believed. the existence through the middle of the ocean, ex- tending from north to south. of a sunken ridge, often less than 1000 fathoms from the surface, while on either side the water has depth of from 3, 900 to more than 3.45O fath oms; So that the elevation of the oceans bot tom required to make these depths dry land would bring up between them mountain range rom 5000 to 15.0O0 feet in height. The higher points of this sunken ridge now form the islands Of the Azores. ,,
