Madison

The Sunday school of the Congregational church at their annual meeting for the choice of officers elected Mir. Charles w. Scranton for superintendent, which position he occu- pied last Sabbath for the first time. This place has been filled for long succession of years very creditably by MT. William B. Crampton, which gentleman at this time pre- ferred to retire in favor of some younger man.
 Horsehesh seems to be rather of an uncer-
 tain commodity here at present. On Monday
 of this week. while Mir. Oscar Stannard was
 driving along one of our thoroughfares, his
 horse suddenly, without warning, dropped dead cause unknown, but we hear of 8 post mortem in store for the remains. This is only the fourth one which has undergone the
 same transition within few weeks. One was
 owned by William S. Hull, one by MT. Nealy and one by Thomas Day.
 We notice that J. M. Hull and Joseph Kel- sey have so far recovered from the measles as to be able to attend to business. New vic
 tins to the disease are constantly being re- ported
 Madison is very dull this winter, both busi-
 nesswise and socially. For several years | past there has been shipbuilding at the yard of c. NJ. Miner < Son, which has furnished business for many of our carpenters and me- l chanics, but we understand the firm have not | yet procured contract, although they confi- | dently expect to do so before long, and to | this end are purchasing large quantities of | timber. Other than this there is no work or | business for the people to engage in at this season of the year except it be that some of | the farmers have wood lots where railroad 1 ties and some other timber can be procured l and prepared for the market. In previous years there have been social entertainments of some kind to break the monotony, but so
 far this season there has been nothing of the l sort. It has been 8 custom in other years to
 have lyceum or some other literary society, but there is an absence of all such now.

Last Tuesday Mir. Henry W. Noble and Miss Mary Hartley were joined together in holy matrimony by Rev. Mir. Jacocks, of the Episcopal church. The wedding was some what private, only few being present. They left in the afternoon for Pittsfeld, Mass, in tending to be absent 8 number of days They intend upon their return, to reside permanently in Naugatuck, mile below the village, where his parents are now living We wish them all their anticipated pleasure.
 Mir. Henry Nettleton, of Prospect, who is very low with consumption, was baptized last Sunday afternoon. His father-in-law, Mir. Thompson, who is above ninety years of age, seems to have got new lease of life.
 Many of us attend the Episcopal church in Naugatuck, and for few Sundays past we have had to lead us in our devotions and to instruct us from the pulpit clergyman from your city, Rev. Mir. Jacocks. He is to off ciate for us next Sunday. and we understand that his text at the night service is to be from Ezekiel 14th-"The soul that sinneth it shall die"
 In the Waterbury Anae7Tcnaa of last week there appeared the following handsome com pliment "Those who attended St. Michael's church on Sunday speak in words of elo-

we'll known business man, of New Hartford, Ct-. writes follows to Dr. David Kennedy, of Rondout, N Y.: 'A few months ago let neighbor of ours have some of your Favorite Remedy, out of bottle we kept for eur own to try for some transient trouble. That neighbor induced sister Jaw, who lay almost at the point of death to test its efficacy for her disease. For weeks previous she could not eat anything without experiencing great distress and the medicine given her by her physicians afforded no help and often seemed to increase her distress It thought she had Cancer of the Stomach, and at the time of which write friends had sent for her pastor to make what it believed would be his last call. This lady recovered and is now comparatively well. and says she would not be without 'Kennedyis Favorite Remedy matter what it's cost might be.

 Among the various departments of work arranged at the annual convention of the Woman's National Christian Temperance Union, held in Boston in October last, was the Department for the Introduction of Sci entifc Temperance Instruction in schools and colleges. Mrs. Mary H. Hunt, of Bos- ton lady of rare talent finished culture and pleasing address, who has thoroughly in- formed herself upon the subject, has been appointed superintendent of this department. She is visiting the cities and larger towns in the different States, presenting the subject to school boards, public assemblies, normal schools, college faculties, etc., and meeting with marked success. At the annual meet ing of the Educational association of Maine, which convened at Pittsfeld in December last, and which was addressed by Mrs. Hunt, they passed the resolution ''that in all our schools the effect of alcohol upon the human l system be taught as scientific fact.'h The | Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Connecticut have taken up this line of work, and propose to prosecute it vigorously. Un- | der their auspices Mrs. Hunt has already l filled engagements in several of the larger | towns of the State where the work is being l carried forward. Her presentation of the | theme before the State Normal School has re- suited in the introduction of this study into | that institution.
 We now have the pleasure of informing l the citizens of New Haven that she is about I to visit our city. She will address the Board of Education at their usual place of meeting at the High School on Friday evening next, I To,, l1St Cl.a alc a1 1 dress at the North church on Sunday even ing, Jan. 23rd. We most earnestly invite all who are interested in the future welfare of the children of the city, and especially teach CTS, parents and guardians, to avail themselves l of the opportunity of listening to her elo- quent discourse. A few brief testimonials | will serve to illustrate how highly her efforts are appreciated.
 An extract from letter Of Rev. Joseph I Cook:
 Mrs Hunt has always charmed me when ever have heard her address an audience. She is both pleasing and convincing speak CT. While she never loses her thorough wo manliness, her grasp of subject is always strong. Vigor of judgment, excellence of taste and great viyidness and grace of lan- guage appear to be united in her. with extra ordinary symmetry and elevation of woman | ly character. I rejoice that the cause of temperance has her powerful advocacy.
 JOSEPH CooK.
 Boston, March 20, 1880.
 Mrs Hunt has the rare faculty of securing the attention of her audience and retaining I it with increasing interest to the end. In my f opinion she has remarkable power in stput- ting things in an original and attractive I manner, and an hour with her in the lecture l room cannot fail to be one of delight and profit. JOHN B.

 CoUeHs.-Brown's Bronchial Troches are used with advantage to alleviate coughs, sore throat, hoarseness and bronchial affections. For thirty years these troches have been in use, with annually increasing favor. They are not new and untried, but having been tested by wide and constant use by nearly an entire generation, they have attained well merited rank among the few stable remedies of the age.
 THE HTHRoAT.-Brown's Bronchial Troches act directly on the organs of the voice. They have an extraordinary effect in all disorders of the throat and larynx, restoring healthy tone when relaxed, either from cold or over exertion of the voice, and produce clear and | distinct enunciation. Speakers and singers find the troches useful.

IMMENSE GRAIN YIELDS

Wonderful reports come to Us from
the grain fields of Eastern Washington
The yield per acre in that region has
always been enormous, but this year.
if we may believe what We hear, j: Is
greater than ever. We will cite but
single instance DIR. Blalock is the
leading whe.t grower Of the country
east of the Cascades. He has several
farms, and he cultivates 10 en- intelil-
gent. scientific and advanced manner.
His product is not only Of the best.
bat it is of the most generous yield.
There is probably no one in the United
States who gets more-if as much
from the acre than he does. From
tract Of 1000 acres We are told tha. be
has harvested this season 81, 900 bush

doing something extraordinary ~nen
he gets fifteen or eighteen bushels from
the acre, think of this. Fitty.hve
bushels an acre marketed from q single
field OF q thousand acres! The Doctors
whole product, we are told, is about
$4,000 bushels. Owing TO the fertility
Of the soil and the extraordinary yield,
wheat can be grown at forty cents a
bushel. 1t is now selling in that coun-
try at sixty. DIR. Blalock. we believe.
sold this year ct ffty-one. and, though
he made in the neighborhood Of Sl0,-
900. he is out Of pocket over $1,000 by
not waiting until he had secured the
top of the market. Other wheat grow
ers in the eastern counties OF Oregon
and Washington have all the way
from few hundred bushels TO ten or
twelve thousand, and among sll the
other farms Of that vast extent of coun-
try we have yet to hear Of one pro-
ducing in 1881 smaller crop than
