The speaker gave many illustrations of deformed oratory, deformed music, deform- ed language (dialects) etc., which caused much merriment among the audience, after which he came to deformed logic, which he maintained was simply the pun and conundrum. The pun and conundrum, he said, are simply ambiguous middle-term in the syllogism. To illustrate he took this conundrum and then changed it: "Why is Fred. Douglass very wicked man? Be- cause he is supported by black legs. Laugh teri Now put the conundrum into syllo- gisn1, and it will read thus
 First premise-Any man supported en- tirely by black legs must be very wicked.
 Second premise-Fred Douglass is sup ported entirely by black legs.
 onelusion-Therefore Frederick Douglass must be very wicked man. Applause.

Third Congregational Church Choir

Third Congregational Church Choir. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Among the various influences which pro- mote the elevation and refinement of com munity, not the least important is that of sa- cred music, the art which '.marries music to immortal verse;" It is hardly too much to say that it holds the same relation to religious instruction that the frame holds to the pic ture or the branches of rhetoric to sound reason. If it does not lay the foundation of the building, fguratively speaking, it strengthens the pillars, raises the dome and adds captivating charm to the structure.
 Milton speaks of Truth as beautiful Hir- gin hewed into fragments and scattered to the winds when her Divine. Master, ascend-, ed into heaven. Smoother her devoted fol- lowers have been collecting the fragments of her dismcmbered body. Music gives her an attractive grace found in. melody and har-s mony. The imagery of nature expressed in poetry, sympathetic tenderness, marvel ous power and sweetness inexpressible Earth has nothing bright or fair
 Lovely forms or beauties rare:
 But before my eyes they bring
 Christ, of beauty source and spring"
 The time of mere mechanical or routine singing is gradually passing away, and the words of Scripture are now rendered musi- cally with such just discernment and clear perception of their value that they challenge our attention and gain admifation before reason has time to Investigate their meaning, or skepticism throw over them the veil of obscnrity There can be little doubt that the concert Wednesday, night will fully sus-ss tain the well deserved reputation of the above choir, and be source of much en- joylnent to all lovers of music who attend.

 Miss Genevieve Ward, one of the most popular actresses in the country, will appear at the New Haven Opera House on next Sat- urday evening in the play Forget Me Not, as performed in London and the British Prov inces with such great success She will be greeted here, as elsewhere with an overflow ing house. Reserved seats on sale at Loomls'.
 THE BROOK. e
 Salsbury's Troubadours will be the at traction at Carll's Opera House this evening, when they will present the laughable and musical extravaganza "The Brook" Neither the company or play are new to New Haven audiences, but they are so popular that they will surely draw crowded house. The rural operatic jubilee is always attractive and un- bounded fun always follows. Tickets are on sale at Loomis' Temple of Music.
 NEEDLES AND PINS.
 A good-sized audience was present at the New Haven Opera House last evening to en- ioy Augustin Daly's brilliant comedy, ssNee- dies and Pins, " and though the company was not the one expected, and was apparently not in good running order, it's efforts to please were well received. The play abounds in comical situations, and the last two acts are especially interesting and amusing. If some of the actors had been more familiar with their parts, the audience would have been better pleased, but as it was, the presenta- ton of the play evoked much laughter and applause. @
 TOM THUMB COMPANY.
 The Tom Thumb company opened their season of one week at Peck's Grand Opera House with big success yesterday. The company includes the famous Gen. Tom Thumb, Major Newell, the skatorial phenom- enon, the little fve-pound Nova Scotia midget, Signor Giovanni with his troupe of trained canaries and musical glasses, and the 6O0- pound lady. The troupe had 10000 people to see them in Paterson, N. J., last week, and have had multitudes to see them in Newark, Troy, Albany, Syracuse, Rochester, Pitts. burg, Baltimore, Washington and elsewhere. MT. Jacobs, the manager, is under heavy ex- pense, but makes low prices. He is the same who gave the popular Annex exhibition here some months ago.

The exhibition was of such satisfactory

crude petroleum, only o common
inch pipe being used for this purpose,
one for steam and one for oil, with cocks
to regulate the flow. A junction is made
within six inches of a perforated brick

If applied to steam boiler, or locomo-

to place retorts made OF fire clay Or CRATE
bars, thus protecting the boiler and
plates from injury.
