 The unpropitious weather kept away hun dreds of people from the Southington fair which closed yesterday. The exhibits have been very creditable. The vegetable and fancy work departments were well sustained. The fair grounds are very pleasantly located and the management is the best.

Belle then fell back and the Girl won the race easily. l After that the race was devoid of interest Westchester Girl won in three straight heats, Belle Sargent's driver making no fl ort tc win.

 Fellow Republicans: thank you for stopping at my door, and rejoice that since the news from Ohio you are not obliged to request me to oficiate at the funeral of the Republican party. The time may come for the Republican party to die in the honors of good old age. It will not do for to ap- point the funeral of the Republican party un- til the day after we know that the Demo cratic party shall be dead and buried. So long as the Democratic party without reference to the ballot box can claim 153 electoral votes, so long I propose to vote the Republican ticket. So long as American ! labor needs protection I intend to l be Republican. So long as any of those I men in the North who were copperheads l during the war dare to claim any part of of fee in the government of this country, so I long I expect to vote the Republican ticket ! The hand which once grasped the sword in defense of the Union shall never cast a vote ! for the man who dreampt of the Northwest ern Confederacy, and so long as the Inde- pendent bureau shall continue to send me the
 Mulligan letters, 50 long in the instinct of | justice intend to stand up for Blaine. sHis | public services deserve our confidence and l his pure private life has fitted him with his | family for the cares of the White House, l which trust may ever be kept pure as the | parsonage of the nation.
