Let us all come together to consider this matter and to seek 8 fresh baptism of the Holy Spirit for our work.
 The handy Hymnals of last year will be used; and more of them will be furnished. The camp ground is in good condition. The water is good and abundant Lumber, straw, and other necessaries will be provided as us- ual Family supplies will be brought upon the ground daily. . It will be the aim of those having charge of the restaurant and boarding tent to give satisfaction to their patrons The preachers house is supplied with neces. saries free

NIT. OsgOod's Trial.

More About the Case in Which the Letter
 s-H'' Caused Such Trouble.
 MT. James H., Osgood, who was arrested last Monday for selling fruit and eonfection- cry at the shore on Sunday, was up in the borough court room, over Wilmot & War ren's store in West Haven, yesterday, his case being continued till then. It will be remembered that Mir. Osgood at the former hearing of his case claimed that his was not the name of the person indicted on account of the omission of his initial "H.," but final ly admitted himself the prisoner and defend ant ikA the case.
 MT. Osgood at the former hearing pleaded guilty to the charge and gave notice that he would appeal. Justice Metcalf continued the case in order to ascertain whether he case was appealable or not, and yesterday he was ready to give decision. But MT. Os-. good was wary and after securing the pro- fessional services of Lawyer Zacher went into court prepared to ask for change of plea from guilty to 'tnot guilty" He was permitted to do this and then the lawyer made written plea ask ing that the case be stricken from the docket, on the ground that the grand juror had made alterations in the complaint after MT. Os- good had been arrested. Grand Juror Pain ter drew up reply in writing to the effect that at a previous hearing he had obtained permission from the court to make the alter ations, and that after the changes were made MT. Osgood himself admitted that he was the prisoner. The justice said that he would have to ask another adjournment in order to consider this new difficulty. MT. Zacher then asked that the continuance be made until the 22nd of this month. Dr. Painter protested strongly against so long an adjournment, but MT. Zacher said he wanted to take vacation and could not attend O the case, so the jus tice granted the desired continuance.

Long a Valuable Town omoIa1.

Edwin Schofeld, of Stamford, who was buried Monday afternoon last, had been more intimately connected with the local government affairs of Stamford for forty years rast than any other man. He was elected town clerk of Stamford in 1s44 and reelected every following year up to and in- cluding 1874. He also served as borough clerk from 1863 up to and including 1869. In 1875 MT. Scoields connection with the liquor business, into which he had been led by his appointment under the old law as town agent, provoked the opposition of many of his former supporters, and the Democratic candidate, Mir Charles E. Holly, was elected by S64 majority. From that time forward Nr. Scoheld's declining health put away from him all thoughts of re-enter- ing into the official service of the town. Deceased would have been sI years of age next December. Rev. MT. Thurston, of North Greenwich, ofRciated.
