Connecticut Authors Assisting Nm Re-
 gard To The New Bill-General Haw-
 ley.
 Among those present at the annual meet ing of the American Copyright league held at the rooms of the Authors club, No 10 West Twenty-fourth street, N. '. ,on Saturday, were the Rev. Dr. Howard Crosby, Richard w. Glider, R. U. Johnson, Professor Boye- son, E. P. Roe, Jonas M. Libbey, Charles Bernard, Mrs. J. w. Champney, W. H. For man, George Parsons Lathrop, George Wal ton Green, Thomas w. Knox, Lawrence Button, pr. T. M Coan, Charles Dudley Warner of Hartford, Professor T. R. Louns- bury of Yale college, Joseph B. Glider, Rob ertson Trowbridge, Mrs. Burton N. Harri- son, w. Hamilton Gibson, Poultney Bige- low and E. F. Mitchell. Dr. Crosby was called to the chair. The secretary, MT. Green, in his report reviewed the history of the Copyright league from its organization about two years ago, when a few gentlemen, less than dozen in all, started the organiza- ton which to day numbers nearly seven hun dted members. He closed by reading DOT tion of letter from Senator Hawley, in which the Senator promised to introduce at the beginning of the session an amendment to the copyright law sweeping away all un- just determinations.
 Mr. Charles Dudley Warner urged the league to approve Senator Hawley's bill,
 which, he declared, contemplates an act of reciprocity in regard to copyright with for eign countries, dealing with no extraneous questions touching the matter of the tariff, or of manufacture, or of any limitation as to time This, said MT. Warner, is the simplest form of an offer of international copy right which has been made. It was a bill which Senator Hawley was willing to push in the Senate, and it was in his judg- ment shrewd and wise bill, without any en- tanglements whatever. There would be at tempted opposition in various quarters to any legislation on this subject, but he agreed with Senator Hawley in believing that the league should offer simple copyright bill and urge it's passage as a simple act of jus tice.
 After some discussion MT. Warmers mo- tion was carried without dissent, and the league is, therefore, practically
 committed to support the Hawley | bili A council to manage the af-
 fairs of the league was then elected, consist | ing of the following members: The Hon. John Bigelow, Prof. H. w. Boyeson, the
 Rev. Robert Collyer, Dr. Howard Crosby, R.
 w. Glider, George W. Green, Lawrence
 Hutton, Brander Matthews, Assistant Bishop
 H. E. Potter, Arthur G. Sedgewick, s. L. Clemens, Poultney Bigelow, R.

Charles D. Fredericks, 77O Broadway

Charles D. Fredericks, ITO Broadway, N. Y, the celebrated photographer, says that Allcock's Porous Plasters have been used by himself and family over twenty years. He found them wonderfully eficacious in coughs, colds and pain in the back and side. Ap- piled to the pit of the stomach they quicely cured him of indigestion and dyspepsia. He also found them admirable liver regulators when applied on the right side.

APPLES AND CIDER BRANDY.

C0nnecticutss Unusual Yield Of the
 Beverage this Year-Our Most NO-
 table and Famous Apple Year
 Some of the Statistics.
 The crop of apples in Connecticut this year is probably the largest that was ever known in the Nutmeg State, and is so large that thousands of bushels of apples will rot on the ground before they can be gathered
 At this late season of the year the greater part of the crop is harvested, but immense
 quantities of apples are perishing. It is gen. orally safe to expect good crop of apples
 every second year, but this regular success sion does not always occur. Last year the crop in this State was nearly failure. in conversation with farmer from Cheshire
 when asked about the apple crop in his vicinity, he replied: "This year apples are growing on hickory trees and apple trees are
 loaded with the fruit" Farmers generally
 have their surplus cider distilled
 into cider brandy when it can be
 kept until gosd sale can be made, but this year farmers complain of
 the tax which they must pay on the brandy, which is ninety cents per gallon. This they say necessitates the outlay of too much mon ey in case large quantity of brandy is made.
 As cider brandy is quoted at the low price of $1.40 per gallon farmers say that the cost of
 making and of barrels reduces the net profit so low that large quantities of apples are not gathered. With the exception of New Jer- sey, Connecticut in proportion to area of ter ritory produces more cider brandy than any other State in the Union. Business is good at nearly all of the cider mills in the State and some of them are running all day and all night. Of the one hundred and eighty cider l. s. kz1 4Iol 1I~< one hundred are in active operation. Some of the remaining eighty will not start up this year for the reason, it is claimed, that there is no money in the business In the year 1880 the apple crop was good and the month ly production of cider brandy in this State was as follows:

PRESIDENT PORTER's SUCCESSOR.

His Views on the Subject-The AL
 leged Demand for a Progressive Ele-
 ment.
 President Porter's views as to the proper policy of Yale and the choice of his successor to Yale's presidency, which are printed in
 the current number of the New Englander,
 are kicking up quite stir. President Porter
 regards the corporation, the body in which lies the sole power of choosing his successor, as one existing under the terms of charter and charter which provides that the cor poration shall be distinctively clerical asso- citation. Many of the alumni have come to regard the trustees as nothing more nor less than brake on the prosperity of the college and have been loud in their demands for change which shall admit the progressive el- ement in the shape of lay graduates into the councils of the corporation. President Por ter has no sympathy with the iconoclasts. In his paper he reviews the history of the char ter under m which the college ,To1 was gave a board of Congregational min isters the power to govern the school, but Dr. Porter says that no subse- quent changes ever abrogated that right
 That the clerical administration has been
 prosperous one financially he says is proved
 beyond doubt by the fact that through pe-
 riods of monetary crises the funds of the in
 stitution have been steadily and systematic ally managed and that the ministerial direc-
 tors have shown themselves prudent and
 efficient guardians of the moneys in their
 charge, As the corporation fills vacancies in gregational ministers resident in Con
 necticut it frequently happens that c+er-
 gymen whose pastofates lie in small towns
 are chosen. These "country parsons" have
 been favorite theme for ridicule on the part
 of the objectors, but President Porter thus comes to their aid: "A few young men who ought to know better may say fippant things about country clergymen, while they abound in their hattery of popular preachers in the city, but older men, who know men, under stand that not 8 few who live apart from the world of news and excitement are the best informed as to the men and measures which give character to university life. I may add that it is indispensable to the successful dis charge of their trust that clerical members should belong to the same religious denomina- l tion Besides other reasons which might be ! given, this seems decisive-that this is their best security against a sectarian bias in ad- nlinistration. It is notorious that there are no l arenas so favorable for sectarian influences | and intermeddling as those colleges and uni versailles which are controlled by corporations which consist of representatives of different denominations"
 President Porter's paper is certain to ere ate much discussion among the alumni. Possibly it was written with tkat object Just now, when the corporation is to choose | a new head of the college and thus deter | mine the institutions policy for years to come, all that is said or written about it is
 bound to be made a subject for debate, and President Porter's essay will furnish 8 text ! frrn Iaarne6 6isonurSa

CHRISTMAS.
Something Of the Origin Of the Great
Christian Festival

Our modern Christmas is made up
of strange medley of Christian and
Pagan rites. After the conversion of
Britain to Christianity, the teachers
of the new doctrine could not entirely
free the converts from a. cir cherished
superstitions and obser ances, and so
engraited the ri es of the Christian
religion upon the old heather cere-
monies. No festival Of the year shows
more plainly such an intern.ingling
than Christmas. These festivities were
originally derived from the Roman
Saturnalia, an OCCASION that was
marked with rejoi.ing, and where
even the slaves, allowed to be free for
the time, were waited on by their
masters. Afterwards came the cere-
monies observed by the Druids, and
still later incorporated with the grim
mythology OF. the ancient Saxon>.
So came The mistletoe, regarded
with the utmost veneration in the re-
ligion of the Druiis. who went forth
with pomp and rejoicing 10 gather The
mystic Dough. So came The yule log
from our Scandinavian ancestors,
who drew 1t in triumph from its rest
ing place In the woods, sure that its
fame would burn out old wrongs and
from its ashes would rise better prom.
ises for the future. So, too, the hrim-
ming wa>sail bowl, i'm whose liquid
depths oil fup.is were said to be bur-
d forever. An ancient helief il still
heard IN sOme parts OF England that

In the Roman Catholic churches
masses are held at intervals from
till noon next day. A sn-
perstition prevailed that at this time
the powers of darkness could exert no
evil influence. The growing Of the
cook put them all TO flight. The idea

An ancient custom is the singing OF
carols. In The early ages of the

ANEW YEARS SERMON.
A Plain Talk with Young Men
About the Prevailing Temptation

A Young man who had just lost an

and said to me: "Docior, I cannot

cost you one-hundredth part as much
