HOLLAND. (FRoM "RETsEL.")

(FRoM "RETsEL.')
 Friday evening was pretty dark, and for some unexplained cause collisions were plenty. Mr. Samuel Slater of Holland and MT. Rider of Wilmington collided near the house of John H. Sparrow, throwing MT. Slater from his carriage. He held to his horse, notwithstanding his face was cut up some, and suffering from pain caused by striking on his breast or just below, and stopped him. His groans attracted the attention of Messrs. Underwood and Mor- ton, who went to his assistance, and he was made as comfortable as possible, and conveyed to his home, where he is getting along as we'll as could be expected. It is thought he has sustained no serious injury, but is pretty badly bruised. The vehicles will need repairs before being used. MT. Rider escaped injury. The same evening the mail wagon ran into Chas. U. Brooks buggy and fractured the hind axle. And two of the parties attending the social clubs dance drove too near together to pass without hitting.

Hartford Courant Building must nat urally soon come to close for the season. The extent of that work in winter is al- ways by necessity very much restricted The railroads are cutting down the forces in their shops, as they always do at winter, and also more than the mere reduction of the season. We read every now and again of four or five hundred or more being turn ed adrift at once for lack of anything to do. The Northern Pacific is said to be cutting down force by the thousands. Nail works, iron mills, steel works, and pa- per factories are closing or running on small force aud short time. And failures, though not panicky, are suggestively abundant, as they always must be in times of depression in large country. All this does not mean ruin or crash, but it does mean hard winter

Wilmington correspondent of the Hort

A Millington correspondent of the Hart ford Courant writes 8 sketch of some mo- table ministers of former time. Of one of these. the grandfather of Rev. H. R. Vaill of Staffordville, he writes :: Dr. Joseph Vaill. ST., who was pastor of the church in Hadlyme for many years, was ;slso na- tive of Millington. He was well nown in his day as an able preacher, with many valuable and pleasing social qualities of character, and exceedingly witty. Attend ing large public gathering at one time in Middletown, when he was ninety-nine years old, and being assigned for the night at the same house with Judge Daggett, Roger Sherman and Judge Baldwin, as was his custom he rose early in the morn ing to take his breakfast walk. He had not gone far before meeting his three friends, who were guests with him at their place of entertainment. They immediate ly bowed pleasant good morning, and passed on but in a little while they met again on their rounds, with more cheerful greeting than before. Not long, and to their surprise, they met yet again on the outskirts of the city and came to longer halt. ssI am reminded" said Dr. Vaill, 'sof parishoner who has lately been re- igiously inspired, and as he was reading at his family devotion the third chapter of Daniel, coming to the hard names, Meshah, Shadrach and Abednego, he stumbled over them as almost unpronouncible. Again they occurred in his reading, troubling him no less than before. But to his as- tonishment, few verses further along the same names met his eyes once more, when his patience wholly failed, aud he broke out with an inconsiderate oath, 'There, if I haven't met them three bothering ras- calls again ?" Dr. Vaill had son of the same name, who was also a clergyman, ,set- tied in Brimfeid, Mass, in Portland, Me-, efficient in founding Amherst college, one of its trustees, and in his last years mem Der of the legislature in Massachusetts,.

ing, and the water comparatively smooth. The
result of yesterdays races has increased the in
terest and the attendance is larger than on any
previous day. The first race called was the final
heat in the consolation race. The start was
made 40, Priddy in the lead, TenEyck second,

quarter miles Ten Evck passed Priddy, and on
turning the buoy he was two lengths in the lead.

Priddy spurted and nearly closed the gap. At
the three quarters Clayton stopped rowing and
pulled to shore. On the last quarter
Teneyck forged ahead again and won easily,
P1iddy several lengths behinde Time, 22:22.
At two O'Clock sniff breeze sprdng up and the
river soon presentei the appearance OF nina
ture sea- The veterans came out for the final
heat, but were sent back to await smoother
water. At four o'clock the wind had materially
subsidized and the Judges decided to call out the
four-oared crews for the final heat. When the
word was given Boston went to the front, with
Green City close second, Mutuals third, and
CeItics fourth THIS position was maintained
until near the buoy, when the Queen City took
the lead, but it was only for a moment
as the Bostons shot ahead at the three quarter up
and from that point TO the finish kept the lead,
widening the gap ct every stroke, and coming in
winner by seven lengths, Queen City's second,
Mutuals third. Time, 1875. The final heat of
she consolation race was next called, and Riley,
