The old cemetery, | which was the space of ground under and about Center church, is seen public build 1 ings such as the two story court house, built in 17l7, which stood on the Green about where the north front of the State House is. Adjoining it was a country house, one story, the jail, separate building, two stories, and short distance south, about where the south front of the State House is, was the grammar school. In front of the jail is shown the stocks which were in use in those days, as the whipping post used to be within the recollection of people now living. The whipping post stood near Chapel street and near the west end of Trinity church. Two trees planted in 1886 are also shown on the common. Allthe houses in the town were located in their respective places, and the map also designated the occupants. About where St. Johns block is, stood one of the larger residences of those days, that of ,Jo. Bur- roughs, the natter, built in 1742, quite modern house. On Church street, where Exchange building is, stood modest little house, occupied by Israel Smith.

 Single Wires for Telephone Purposes.
 The Connecticut Telephone Go. would call the attention of those who are in the habit of doing much business daily through the tele- phone to the great advantages of their dou- ble and single wire system over the ordinary circuit wires.
 The single wire gives the subscriber entire control over his connection with the central office. No other subscriber can cut him off His wire IS never in use except when he him. self is using it. And no calls are rung on his bell except those to which his attention is expected. To large concerns like wholesale houses, hotels, manufactories and the like single wires are great saving of time as well as inconvenience. and the cost, $6O per year. is but little more than the rate for a circuit station. Those who are already connected with the exchange on single wires in New Haven are:
