Congregot1onaI Conference.

Baldwin, of New Haven, was ap- pointed moderator, the Rev. MT. Dudley of Cromwell scribe and the Rev. MT. Berry of Huntsville assistant scribe The Rev. Dr. Hawes, of New Haven, is chairman of the standing committee, and has official direction of all the business which comes before the conference. Rev. MT. Hallock made an ad- dress of welcome, and Rev. pr. Burton pre- sided. The Rev. Dr. Perrin, the annalist, reported large addition to the collection of books and pamphlets which are stored in the Eldridge Memorial Hall. These are mostly of an antiquarian and religious character and have a certain value to those who are looking up bygone volumes of theology.

on for Cuba.

B. H. Tominson, who has been rpending the summer in Ansonia, sails for Santo Do- mingo about November 1st. $. W. Mellor has preceded him. They are connected with Franklin Farrel in large sugar plantation there. This week the schooner yacht Dawn sails from New Haven for the same port. She was bought by the owners of the Cuban es- tate t0 sal between it and Santo Domingo city, and for general cruising purposes along the islands. Last year they used steam launch, but the rough seas made it un- suitable for the purpose and it was sold. The Dawn is one of the old class of yachts, and was built after the pattern of the famous yacht America. She is said to bea great sail CT, and on board is a silver cup, which is one of her trophies of victory. She is 60 feet long, 16 feet beam, and draws feet of wa- ter. She has four cabins, Q stateroom, and is provided with pinnacle light. Captain White, of Maine, is to be her commander Although small vessel, practical navigators say she will make the voyage safely. With feEoring wind the Dawn can run across the Gulf stream and reach warm latitude in two or three days. She ought to reach Santo Domingo in fourteen or fifteen days VGueu Sentinel
