Fussel,'s Backbone Broken


The American has come back from
its boiling experiment, and pulled
down FuSsells name aud hoisted
General Bate for Governor. The
reasons are obvious Those who had
undertaken to pay 100000 for a con-
trolling interest in it. in order to run
it for the boilers, found that they
could not lead of enough Democrats
from Bate to elect Hawkins, and that
their subscription list was growing
beautifully less daily, and to get out
Of the scrape forfeited their contract
Of purchase and let the paper go back
to the former owners, who come out
for Bate aud promise to support him
until the election. We hail with
pleasure this change, and are now pre-
pared to hear Of Russell being called
of the track, and see, what we ought
to have, a fair contest between De-
mocraoy aud Republicanism, without
the Russell sideshow and aid society
working for and with the latter in an
organized capacity.

 The New York New Haven and Hartford road has purchased of the Phoenix bank, of Hartford, and of Chester W. Chapin, of Springfield, a controlling interest in the stock of the Hartford and Connecticut Valley road. The stock was transferred yesterday after noon. The price paid was $10O per share. The stock was issued after the bondholders got possession of the road and cost the hold
 ven and Hartford road will also purchase the additional stock issued by other roads as far as offered This amounts to $400,00O, on which has been paid forty per cent. Forty two dollars will be given for it.
 AS in the case of the Canal road, the Con- solidated takes controlling interest in the stock, and will hereafter manage it. and it can manage it at probably 33 per cent. less than can an independent company, as 1t has the necessary stock, depots repair shops, freight houses, etc, and it can attach it to the Shore Line at one end and to it's Hartford property at the other. But the extension is dead for the present.
 The Valley road had million of dollars in bonds, which 1t turned into stock at 8O-that is, the million was reduced to eight hundred thousand dollars. Then it issued, the pres ent year, a million of dollars of new stock for ' building the extension to Springfield. On ] this 40 per cent. has been paid in; but these $400, 900 have not been expended. The Con- ! solidated road agrees to take the old stock of { 8 million of dollars (held by the owners at $500, ,O0O) at par value; that is, it pays one l hundred dollars per share for it, so that the holders get back the 20 per cent. that was \ sealed.

The theft of $159 50 from the office of the treasurer of the Derby railroad, which oc- cured on Monday was bold affair. About II o'clock in the forenoon man came into the treasurer's office and asked Mir. Atwater, who had received the above amount from the ticket agent, if he would not change $5 bill for him. This MT.

While looking over the City Directory the man had also an opportunity of seeing MT. Atwater count the money he had received from the ticket agent and also when he placed it away in drawer afterward. Tho stranger retired from the room and Mir. At water had occasion also to leave the room for about five minutes. He locked the drawer containing the money and went down stairs, returning shortly afterward. Then he noticed the money drawer pulled out about SIX inches from the table and the money was missing. The door of the room, which he locked on going out, was found to be locked when he came back. It was nearly noon when he complained to the police employed in French Brothers coal office which is in room adjoining the office of the treasurer of the Derby railroad.

Much of the distress and sickness attribu. ted to dyspepsia, chronic diarrhoea and other causes is occasioned by humor in the stomach. Several cases, with all the charac teristics of these complaints, have been cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla. Other cures effected by this medicine are so wonderful that the simplest statement of them affords the best proof that it combines rare curative agents and when once used secures the confidence oi the people.
