MT. Charles Skeeles, proprietor of the Savin Rock hill restaurant and grounds, and wife, who went to Florida about two months ago, are now in New Orleans where they will remain during the rest of the winter.
 The sea wall improvements on the shore between Kelsey's wharf and Savin Rock have been thus far accomplished at the expense of property owners opposite. Some time sinco petition was circulated which obtained many signatures asking the borough of West Haven to finish the work, claiming, it is said, that the work properly belonged to the borough to finish. Nothing has yet been heard as to the fate or reception of the peti- ton.

FROM MIR. EuP D. EoRRy. OF NEW YORK

FROM MR. ELI p. FoRBy, OF NEW YORK.
 Nea0 Fork, December 12, 1883. DR. J. H. ScHENCK, Philadelphia, Pa.
 Dear Str II wish to tell you what your medi- cines have done for me- because believe that many lives may be saved by my doing so. I already know of one who has been influenced by me to use them, after having been told by several physicians that her case was hopeless
 But to my own cese. In the year 1875 was at tackled with Inflammation of the Lungs, the result of heavy cold. It was a severe attack, and I grew worse very fast. Among my friends it was reported that had quick Consumption. had continual cough from the first, and soon began to raise large quantities of phlegm and matter from my lungs. lost my appetite, and, of course, soon grew very weak-so weak that was obliged to go to bed. Weakness brought on night-sweats, and lack of nourishment great loss of flesh. In six weeks lost over thirty pounds All this time I was taking the medicines of two of Albany's best physicians. I do not wish to blame them, but do not think that they had made such a study of lung diseases as is necessary to treat serious a mine was. At the end of these six weeks I lost faith in everything; was satisfied that my time had come, and so I told my doctors.
 Then as is usual after all else had been tried, some one suggested your medicines, and I, neither e5Peetpng or hoping for relief began to use them weeks was much better that got up from bed and went down town; and in four weeks felt thirty pounds of flesh, and am very happy to say that have been q well man ever since my recovery which consider is entirely due to you. l shall be pleased to see any one who may be interested in my case, will gladly answer letters from those who find it impossible to call on me.
 ELI P. FORBY,
 No. 235 West 18th Street, New York City. To any one who is acquainted in Albany, N r.. l can refer to many who know of my case.

 Judge Shipman has filed his decision in the United States Circuit court in the case of the Wilson Sewing Machine company vs William G. Wilson. The opinion relates to plea in abatement and the point at issue was the liability to service of new writ by summons on nonresident defendant attending court in this State as a witness and party in anoth- CT suit. Wilson was formerly the president of the Wilson Sewing Machine company of Wa1lingford. He left the company and has since lived in Chica- go. March IS, 1884, he came to Connecticut to attend to the trial of case in which he was defendant and witness and also to testify in three other related cases. The trial of his suit lasted from March 19 to March 27. On March 20, before he had been called as a witness, the complaint in this case was served on him by summons. No attachment was made. The decision of Judge Shipman, which is confined to the case of nonresident defendant, sustains the plea in abatement

 Dear SiT-About eight years ago began to suffer from Liver difficulty. During the attacks I ex- perienced severe pain accompanied by what I can not describe better than by calling it drawing in sensation. The agony of it was almost beyond en- durance. None of the usual medicines employed in such cases had any effect upon me- From time to time was laid up and unable to attend to my busi- ness. This covered period of year.
 Finally MT. Lloyd druggist of this city, suggest ed your FAVORITE REMEDY as excellent thing for the Liver. had not taken the whole of the first bottle before found most decided relief the pain passed away, and to my delight regained the power to en joy and digest my food without the former distress. Nature seemed to be set going again. cannot better express my appreciation of Dr. David Kennedy's FAVORITE REMEDY than by telling you that since my personal knowledge of its virtues have recommended it to a great many of my friends and acquantances.
 Yours truly, S. PEPSON. 222 Alexander avenue.

Rochester, Pa., October 14tt, 1881. DR. J. H. ScHENcK & SON, Philadelphia.
 Gentlemen Having been asked by many per sons in regard to your medicines, have decided to send you this statement of my case:
 In 1854 commenced bleeding at the lungs. I was then going down the river on the boat, and was sent back home on another boat as the captain was afraid I would bleed to death before we reached destination. I continued bleeding off and on until the Spring of 1S61 during which time tried everything that heard of, as well as consulting several physicians
 In the Fall of 1861 called on Dr. Schenck, who had an office in Pittsburg at that time. He told me that he thought his medicines would reach my case, and advised me to try them. Ipurchascd three bottles of the Syrup and box of Pills. returned home and commenced by taking the Syrup and Fills directed, and continued their use thereafter. I had slight hemorrhages until the 7th of the following April since which time have had no return of the same. had great deal of pain in my back and chest and con tinual cough and on many occasions thought that I would cough and bleed to death.
 I have great faith in your medicines and have recommended them to q great many persons with excellent results.
