A Gloomy Outlook for the Crops.
 GREENFIELD, May 24.-The department of agriculture has made deductions from the recently received crop reports that are far from encouraging. In all parts of the State corn planting has been hindered by wet weather It is known that much of the seed already planted has rotted in the ground, ne- cessitating replanting, There are increased fears about the chinch bug ravages and the secretary of the State board thinks if sea- son of hot weather should set in immediately before the harvest the damage could not but be great. There is as yet no abatement of the ravages of the army worm in the south ern counties The blades in many fields have been stripped off and the insects are at work on the heads, particularly of late and tender varieties

They propose to fight alone against datory motions, belle ing the Democrats will find it wise to longer delay business

Changing Railroad Grades.


 The engineers making the resurvey of the New York, New Haven and Hartford road are now at work at Norwalk, and expect to make some important changes before they get through, in order to allow the trains to make the fast time required. It is said that when the road was built grades and curves that should have been taken out were per mitted to remain for the benefit of the con- tractors The Norwalk Gazette speaks as fol- lows of the probable changes:
 That many changes will now have to be made, especially through the towns between the State line and Stratford, cannot be doubted by anyone familiar with the line, and that such changes will involve great ex- pense to the company is evident. In some places entire new locations will have, to be made, and the harbor crossings at South Nor walk and Bridgeport will probably require change of bridge lines. At Bridgeport the location of the depot and bridge are most un- fortunate, as the frequent delays and aeci- dents at that place prove, and the only rem edy seems to be a new bridge at 8 point where sufficient number of tracks can be laid to prevent delays and accidents. The heavy grades between Greenwich and Westport will of course have to be cut down to about forty feet to the mile, which will be slow and ex- pensive, as the running of so many trains will greatly retard the force engaged in such labor. At South Norwalk the curve from the depot to the drawbridge is sharp and the draw hidden from the engine driver by build ings, and it would seem as if some radical changes will have to be made at this point At East Norwalk the change of grade will probably require the removal of the bridge over East avenue, and bring back grade crossings Until this point is determined, the location for the new depot cannot properly be determined. The work of balIasting the road can proceed where no change of line or grade is needed.

The First regiment had its field day yester- day at Newington, near Newington Noun tain, the programme including sham battle. The Hartford companies were placed to the north of a small stream and were attacked by the remaining companies under Major Good rich. The attacking party was repulsed and driven back by degrees until it took shelter in the woods to the south and west of its first position.
 Meantime the spectators were arriving by hundreds. Carriages with ladies drove mer- rily to the scene of carnage and good many sober and sedats citizens who had smelt pow der in actual battles were there to see the image of what they had once known in the reality. The population of the immediate vicinity dropped work and came to the spec tacle, and babies and children were brought to see something almost as attractive as Bar num's circus. Bicyclers turned out in num- bers. The battle was fsrcely waged, but no blood was spilled, and the only casualty was the falling of man off an ammunition wagon.

A Lodge CompIimented.

Quinn1piac Lodge, of New Haven, as it's number indicates is the oldest lodge of the l. o. o. F. in this State. It has the reputa- tion of doing the finest initiatory work in the order, and this reputation was fully con- frmed by the work exhibited on Monday night.
 So perfect was every movement in time and gesture that it all seemed like the work ing of an elaborate automaton. The beauti- ful paraphernalia and rich furnishings of the lodge room added much to the impressive ness of the work. After the usual business of the lodge interesting addresses were made by several of the brothers, after which all repaired to the banquet hall where a gener- ous lunch had been prepared. In closing we can simply say, in the words of Past Grand Burton, that Eff Quinnipiac Lodge do not wish to be burdened by frequent visita. tions it must not keep up its present reputa- tion for so excellent work.
