Mr.. Troup, of New Haven, has been very faithful
He has kept strict watch the interests of the
first city in the State, which he has had the honor
Of representing alone most of the time. He has
known what New Haven wanted and has spoken and
voted in accordance Herewith. :
One of the most genial members is Mr.. Graham,
of Orange. He mo unsophisticated legislator and
doing business in New Haven, has had much to say
concerning measures for its benefit. The govern
ment of a country would always be very near its
members and always excellent if all its legislators
were Grahams.
Mr.. Newton, of Durham, as the House head Of the
Judiciary committee, filled the position of leader
If any one can claim that honor In this House, He
Is well skilled in the law, of which he is rising ex
haps too technically inclined Fact and experience

THE WEATHER,
The sudden Change to Midsummer
Heat.

The sudden Change to Midsummer
Heat.
The leading topics of the day yesterday in
town were the postmastership and the sud
den attack of hot weather. The perspiring
public were in a dilemma whether to rush
off to the seaside or stick to the city and
their thicker garments. Wise ones decided
to wait bit, fearing anobher sudden col
lapse back to cold weather. Mark Twain's
New England weather seems to be outdoing
itself this spring. The thermometers chron-
icing 80 degrees in the shade yesterday was
another in the series of remarkable trans
formations and somersaults with which the
weather has been signalling itself in the
last month or two. The weather had little
the lead of the postmastership as topic of
interest on the whole.
