A FRISKY SEAL.

ScraP1ng Acquaintance With The
 BOvines of His Neighborhood.
 seal which has been domesticated in the Garden street reservoir at Hartford climbed out of the water Friday and made his way to neighboring pasture lot. The COWS in the lot beloved with fear at sight of the stran- ger, and their noise attracted Mr. F. Smith, the owner of the cows, to the scene He found the seaI which had been so innocent for number of days in the reservoir, in the lot near by. One of the cows had tried to hook him, but the Icelander snapped vigor- ously at her and frightened her away He seemed to enjoy staying where he was and was evidently master of the situation so far as the COWS were concerned. Mir. Smith with the assistance of a neighbor finally got him entangled in blankets and carried him back to the reservoir. He is able to get along with fair alacrity and would give a small boy good lesson if he should take it into his head to chase him.

 ST. THOMAS CHURCH
 The Rev. Dr. Beardsley delivered 8 short sermon yesterday morning before the com munion service from the thoughts suggested by the closing of church festivals Whit sunday and Trinity Sunday close up the great festivals of the church beginning at Christmas time. The lesson of the ascen- sion was finely set forth in it's broad and benefcent meanings. The apostles could never have done the work without the aid of the Holy Ghost. Man in his present state is unable to investigate the truths as he ought, and many of the best of the race have mourned their incapability to bring forth the spiritual fruits that Ghey earnestly desired to. The Holy Ghost, the third person in the Trin- ity, is the being through which all the oper- ations of men are carried on. Characters are so mixed in this world that the tendency of many is to confuse the bad and the good allc not recognize the great d1V1Slen between them. The rector spoke feelingly of the re- cent deaths in the parish. It was fit he said at this time to commemorate the character of the faithful who have been as the salt of the earth. In the afternoon the Sunday school, Burton Mansfield superintendent, celebrated it's anniversary with the following programme:

A Great Victory A Terrible Case of Scrofula
 Cured by
 Hoods SarsapariIla

(" In the winter of 1879 was attacked with Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms. At one time had no less than thirteen large abscesses over and around my neck and throat, continually exuding an offensive mass of bloody matter disgusting to behold, and almost intolerable to endure. It is impossible to fully describe my sufferings, as the case was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After three years of misery, having been treated by three physicians, was worse than ever. Finally, on the recommendation of W. J. Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, I was induced to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after having taken twelve bottles, within the last twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have entirely ceased, and the abscesses have all are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and beautifully less.' I do not know what it may have done for others, but ] do know that in my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an effective specific indeed. As an evidence of my gratitude send these facts unsolicited, this cure, by personal correspondence with any one who doubts it." CHARLES A. RoB- ERTs, East Wilson, N. Y.

Communicated.9 Death is a fearful thingl" Mute and noiseleSs;


 It is at all times hard to bear, but when its frosts fall upon loved wife, daughter and sister in the youth-time of life, parent of but a few days, it's sting seems sharper, and for time beyond human power to endure. It falls this time upon the household of MT. Eli Whitney, in the death in this city at the noontide of. this day of his daughter Mrs. Susan Huntington Brewster, the wife of the Rev. Chauncey B. Brewster of Detroit, Michigan.
 Mrs. Brewster will live sweetly in the memory of loving and loved ones, who were familiar with the graces and virtues of her gentle, amiable and lovely character, her quiet and attractive manners, her graceful, dignifed person, and who will tenderly sym pathize with her parental family and deeply grieve with her much loved and most highly esteemed husband, whose young heart is thus left lone and desolate. c.

 A large circle of friends will deeply lament the death of Mrs Brewster, wife of Rev. Chauncey B. Brewster of Detroit, Mich, which took place yesterday morning at II o'clock at the residence of her father, MT Eli Whitney, on Elm street. The deceased leaves an infant few days old. She was the elder daughter of MT. Whitney and lady of very estimable character. All that the most skilled medical attendance and the ut most loving devotion could do to avert the blow was unavailing. The deceased was married to Rev. MT. Brewster, son of Rev. Joseph Brewster, in October, 1873 The seven years thereafter were spent in Rye, where MT. Brewster was rector, and the re- mainder in Detroit. In both places the news of her death will cause deep regret. She was devoted wife and daughter, whose vacant place in the home circle speaks elo- quently of her winning nature and gifts of mind and heart and recalls flood of tender loving memories.

UNITED CHURCH
ChOhCd Prof w. J. Tucker conducted the services

Prof. W. J. Tucker conducted the services morning and evening. The eleventh chap ter of Hebrews was read as the morning les son and faith in God as therein record led was the subject of the sermon. The words of the text were: FI believed, therefore have I spoken" This faith, the speaker said, in coming down through the ages, shows itself in the life of the possessor, often when not manifested in speech, as in the case of Abraham and some of the more ancient patriarchs. In the New Testament also and even of Christ's own disciples are some whose names only have come down to us, yet their lives exemplified that faith ''de- hvered unto the saints" In the evening the professor reviewed his sermon of two weeks ago on 'tthe temptation of Balaam." Ba- laam was held up as a true and able prophet of the Lord like unto Moses, but God had called him to different place and work Striking lessons for human conduct were drawn from the story of the Moabite prophet
