PAID ALL LOSSES IN FULL !!

The last year was an exceptionally disas- trous year to tobacco crops, and the losses were many and great but they nave all been promptly paid.
 This only shows the importance of insuring against these losses Many thought last year they would not insure, and would thus save the small premium, but one day the hail came and beat upon tho crop and they lost ten times tho amount ofthe premium.
 At the last annual meeting it was voted to substitute for the premium notes a cash pre- mium of five per cent, the officers and mem- bers of the company being satisfied that that will meet all contingencies, Anyone insuring therefore for the current year, will ouly be required to pay cash premium of five per cent on the amount Of the insurance, which will cover all liability,-there can be

THE severe frost of Saturday night, June IA, and the long continued drought, also the unchecked ravages of the cank- or worm and Colorado beetle must con- vince everyone that the following edito- rial in the Newtown Bee of June 13, cor rectly portrays the situation:-
 The outlook for our farmers was nev- CT more gloomy than it is this spring. Jack Frost has stripped field and forest with icy breath; the canker worm fol- lows after with ravenous hunger; dry weather again threatens and has already spoiled the meadows parched through previous seasons. No wonder many man feels blue and gloomy, especially if the resources are gone or diminished, from which he hoped for means to feed insat- fate taxes and interest money. But dis aster is always heaviest with the first rough slap. Hope revives with Times passage and alleviations here and there Corn will sprout again; grass, though light, may be of sweeter quality and higher pr1ce; potatoes will rise above % cents bushel; fruit can be gone with out, though sorely missed Still the fact remains that sorry harvest stares the farmer in the face and hard times for the farmer means hard times on all sides. He works hard for what he gets, God bless him, and is used to hard knocks and loses, though 1t IS not so often that so hard blow knocks the breath out of him at one fell swoop'

BUCKINGHAM DAY.

It is impossible to correctly estimate the number of people who assembled at Hartford, June 19. In addition to the population of the city, it is estimated that the visitors from the various parts of the state and from other states, alone numbered from 30,000 to 45,000. The streets and sidewalks were crowded and every window on the line of march was filled with spectators. There was 0 crowd everywhere you went-at the stores, at the hotels, at the restaurants, at the capitol, on the park and at the depot Persons accustomed to witness ing large processions, place the number of veterans and militia in line at over 10000.
 All the railroads were taxed to their utmost in conveying the multitude to and from the city. A train on the H. X c. W. railroad, arriving in Hartford at 10:3O A. M. brought twenty cars filled with passengers The Hartford daily papers-Courant, Post, Times were unable in one issue to publish a detailed account of the exercises, al- though they have almost unlimited space at command, ,and their report, including notes and incidents of the occasion, ex- tends through several subsequent dates of their papers.
 Our space permits only the following condensed report which we copy from the Republican Farmer:-
 HARTFORD, June 1S.-The occasion of the unveiling of the statue in honor of Gov Buckingham called to Hartford at least 30, ,000 people from abroad. The first military stir of the day was over the reception of the Seventh regiment, from New York. The city was in the full attire of holiday, public and pri- vate buildings being elaborately deco rated. Nothing equal to the display has ever before been seen here, except on Battle-fag day, Sept. IS, 1879. There were in the procession to-day about 5000 men, the majority being veterans of the war, who marched as regimental organizations. There were IT bands of music and 19 drum corps, making 619 musicians in all. The line was nearly an hour passing a given point. The ex-governors here were Holly, Hawley, English, ,Ingersoll, Bigelow and Andrews. Three of Gov Buckingham's state off cers, who served during the war, are now living. They are Lieut. Gov Doug lass of Middletown. ComptrollerCutl ot Watertown, and Secretary of State J Hammond Trumbull of Hartford, and they were here to-day. At the close ot the march the unveiling of the statue occurred. Speaker Harrison, of the House presented the memorial to the state. Gov Waller replied, accepting the statue in the name of the Common. wealth. After lunch at Bushnell's park, at which plates were furnished fol 5000 persons, Senator Platt delivered an oration. He dwelt eloquently on the leading and directing hand of Gov Buckingham in the trying years of the war. The Army and Navy club of Con. necticut gave banquet tonight to sev eral hundred of its members and invited guests. Speeches were made by Col Emmons Clarke of the Seventh regl- ment, Gov Waller, Rev l.. w. Bacon and others. At the Union Armory the Seventh regiment boys were entertain ed. Mayor Bulkeley was given & sere made at the City hall by Cappa's band and it was past midnight before the festivities closed.

What Tobacco Growers Will Ask.

For two or three days there has been much consultation among the tobacco men, and though no meeting has been held or formal action taken, there is strong feeling that an effort must be made and every influence brought to bear to secure change in duty on to- bacco at the present session of congress. It has been found that in spite of the recent decision of the secretary of the treasury, Sumatra tobacco can still come in at the 35 cent rate. The bales which so enter contain some very poor tobacco, but also some that is very good but this latter weighs more than 100 leaves to the pound and thus the bale evades the higher duty. It was not at first suppos- ed that any Sumatra tobacco answering to this description was grown. It is said by some who are familiar with the subject that there is plenty of it and that Sumatra tobacco can be easily re- sorted in Holland so as to meet the con- ditions, and brought in at the 35 cent rate so as to be sold here for $1. 20 to $1.30 a pound, The tobacco growers want duty of 75 cents pound on all foreign tobacco.-Courant.
 LATER
 The Hartford Times says: "A confer ence of tobacco growers and dealers was held at the Allyn house, Hartford, June IS. The session lasted four hours anG the situation was fully discussed. Sen ator Platt was present and said he would willingly do all he could to get cor rection of the present law, but doubted if 1t could be accomplished at this latt hour of the present session of congress As every measure must originate in tho house, Representatives Carlisle, Morton and Randall must be seen and induced to side with the tobacco men, and nov, in the matter. It was decided that tn, New York men present should repor this meeting to the New York tobacco leaf board of trade and report back t. the New England growers as to whethe the New York men are disposed to fol low MT Platt's advice in the matter. they do, Col Phelps and Silas Hubbart will immediately go on from thi section"
