Neither Mr. Plumley or Judge Thompson

point that all bills Of such public interest

The present owners of the Connecticut river line of steamers have completed ar- engagements with the managers of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad to build joint storehouse at Middletown, at which to deliver and receive freights bound to points beyond Hartford; also to be util- ized for landing of fruits and vegetables and all Hartford freights if it becomes necessary to do so by reason of extreme low water or fogs It is agreed that winter connection shall be had at Canal dock, New Haven, con- meeting by special train for Hartford, arriv- ing here at an early hour. By way of the Air Line railroad they are in communication with Middletown, Cromwell, Portland, Hig- ganum, Middle Haddam and Moodus, and by way of the New England road at East Hart ford for North and South Glastonbury. The carriage from these points, (most of which have to cross the river which over half the time is impossible for teams in winter) is not much greater than by any other route, and the arrangement will thoroughly protect their patrons on the river. The advantages of this arrangement are great, as it saves seven ty miles travel each day, avoids the dangers of winter at Saybrook bar and enables one boat to do the work of two, doing away with the wear and tear, insurance and expense of the extra boat.-H01tto7d Post.

 The ArrRnceme,fs.

The Coming New Consolidation Armory
 The Arrangements.
 Much interest naturally prevails in military circles over the new armory matter. As is well known, the Legislature authorized and provided for the establishment of armories to be owned by the State in certain cities and towns. The location for the new armory is not yet decided upon, and this is a point over which there is naturally much interest among real estate men. The new armory will do away with nearly all the present armories in the city, as the Grays, Blues, Light Guard, City Guard, Sarsfeld Guard, Cover nor's Foot Guard and Governors Horse Guard will all be quartered under one roof, the new armory being intended for all these companies. The military officers have 8 meeting this evening, at which the subject will be considered.
 Military men were discussing last evening the projected armory, and four sites are spoken of as among those which may be selected, on one of which the price of $22,- 900 is fixed, it having front of 125 feet and depth of 200 feet. The officers meeting this evening will afford an opportunity for the general discussion of what is needed and desirable in the new armory.
