THE COLD WEATHER.

weather Records Trotted Oat-The
Ice-Locked Harbor-The Legislature
and the Frozen Earth-The Trout
ing Season.
Yesterdays weather was some Etlet up on
the continued severe weather of late, and
was hailed by the public with satisfaction as
auguring that the final break up of old
winters reign is near at hand. The wealth
.er observers are coming out in all the pa
pers, little and large, throughout the State
with their records and comparisons of the
March weather with the weather of previous
Marches. No one has yet had the hardihood
to lay the blame for this excessive cold wave
on the Connecticut legislature or the new
administration at Washington, though it
was said yesterday that the weather must be
in league with the Connecticut legislature to
prolong the session, as the farmers are in no
hurry to go home with ice a foot thick on
the ponds and no prospect of a change for
farm work at present. On the other hand
Jimmy Pigott" is now blamed for getting
the legislature into snarl and prolonging
the session, as one-third of the session, at
least, has been devoted to him. This rather
lets off the weather, as far as prolonging the
session of the legislature is concerned.
The bluebirds are backward about
coming forward, but the trouting season
opens next week all the same. The fish
worms are in no hurry to come out or con-
tribute themselves to the use of the anglers,
and the anglers will find it hard spading for
them and may have to resort to dynamite.
The boatmen and sailors hang about the
wharves discussing the memorable weather
which locks up the harbor with thick ice
again as far as "the light" and calls on the
''big boats" to keep the channel open in or
der to get through. Off in the harbor are
many vessels frozen in, and this with April
near at hand. Altogether spring overeoats
are as yet drug in the market, and the boys
who essay kite flying give it up and buckle
on the skates.

Died In Rrfdgeporf.

Mrs. William A. Judson, highly esteemed
Bridgeport lady, died yesterday morning,
aged seventy years. She was a native of
Monroe, where her early years were passed,
and she remained there a period after her
marriage to Mr.. Judson. From thence they
removed to Huntington, and when their
pleasant home in that place was destroyed by
fire some six years ago they removed to
Bridgeport. The deceased lady had three
children, the eldest, Miss Maria, who has al
ways watched over her mother, William,
who died shortly after the close of the rebel
lion, and Dora, the wife of Mayor D. N.
Morgan, of Bridgeport.

A Singular Case.

Louis Cordett, young man of Birmlng-
ham, died Sunday afternoon from the effects
of quinsy sore throat. His death was very
singular and sudden. Tt was probably
caused by suffocation as his throat was
greatly swollen and his face and neck turned
black. DR.. Baldwin, who attended him, did not
consider his condition to be serious. He
SAYS it is the most remarkable case that ever
came under his attention.

ssGentIe SPRING.

Among spring preparations, do not neglect
that which is most Important of all--your
own body. During the winter the blood alb
serbs many impurities, which, if not ex-
PEELED, are liable to break out in scofula or
other disease. The best spring medicine is
Hoods Sarsaparilla. It expels every i'm
purity from the blood and gives strength to
every function of the body. Sold by all

AMERICAN THEATER.
That variety is the most appreciated NOR
sci of entertainment at the American Theater
was demonstrated again last evening when a
large and highly appreciative audience greet
ed a fine company of specially artists. From
the opening sketch, in which Billy Williams,
Dan and Gussie Hart appeared, to the funny
afterpiece, the churchman's Ghost" there
was not dull moment. Every feature of
the programme was excellent, and the audi
ence went away thoroughly pleased with the
performance. The same bill will be given
through the week.
SIBERIA.
The first presentation of BARLEY Camp
bells latest success, 'fSiberia," drew quite a
large audience at the New Haven Opera
House last evening. No more thoroughly
artistic and enjoyable entertainment has
been offered our theater-goers this season.
In ''Siberia" the author has selected for his
theme Nihilism and the persecution of the
Jews in Russia. The dialogue is bright and
sparkling and is not encountered with any
long speeches. The interest of the audience
is at once awakened and maintained until the
close of the final scene. The play is well
mounted with elaborate and appropriate
scenery painted expressly for the piece. To
Miss Belgrade, who admirably yet modestly
enacted the part of ''Sara," and to Mr..
Atkins Lawrence as ''Nicolai Nirgof'' be-
long the honors of the evening. Miss Bel
garde's remarkable physique adapts
her to the role of the Jewish maiden and
this was supplemented by very pleasing
voice and careful acting, which at once won
the hearts of the audience. Miss Mcclellan
as ''Vera'' and Mrs NJ. G. DAILY as ''Troisky''
kept the audience in good humor throughout
the evening. Miss Vaders played ''Marie"
acceptably and Miss Evelina Cook as "Drov-
na' made the most of small part. The per-
Torrance will be repeated every evening this
week and Saturday afternoon. 1t is an en-

WAsHISGToN, September 11.-Second
Comptroller Maynard has written reply
to Rear Admiral Jouett in regard to the
item of 500 paid for the entertainment of
visitors to the flagship Tennessee, at the
New Orleans Exposition, in which he re-
views the whole question in the light of
the points raised by the admiral in de-
fense of the expenditure. He takes issue
with the admiral on the point that the ex-
~anditures could properly be made from
the naval contingent fund, and quotes
from a decision made by Attorney. General
Devins, "that the words contingent ex-
penses,' as used in the appropriation
act, mean such incidental casual expenses
as are necessary, or at least appropriate
and convenient in order to the rerform-
ance of the duties required by the depart
ment, or the office for which the appro-
pristion is made" The Comptroller says
he has been unable to find any law which

TENNESSEE BONDS.
They Are Coming I'm Slowly, and the
State VIII Probably Not Have to
Borrow Money.

Tennessee bonds are coming in, one
might say, slowly. About $4,000 were
funded yesterday and the day before.
Some $4,000 of this came in one lot, the
remainder in small lots. OF the disincli-
nation to offer bonds for refunding, it may
be said that should the large holders East
send- in bonds inexcess of the presea.
ability of the State to refund it might re-
suit in the States going out to borrow
money to meet its interest, with corre-
spending depressing influence upon the
bonds. If these large bondholders hold off
till after October 1st. when the revenue for
1885 begins to come in, ample funds will be
in the Treasurer's hands to meet any pos
sible contingency from this direction.
There is at this moment S307, 900 available
cash in the treasury. Added to the
balance to be collected on the back tax of
1884 and that which will be collected on
the tax of 1885, this sum will reach possi-
bly, half million cash reserve, and the in
terest on the bonds and the school fund as
well will require a maximum of not more
than $500, ,000.-NdshUille american, 11th.
