 lution concerning the indexing of the public Sherman w. Adams, chairman. The report was quite lengthy, covering ten foolScap pages, and from it we learn that the records of the New Haven colony from 1888 to 1865 have been published, except for ten years from April, 1644, to May, 1853, which are wholly lost. The Connecticut colony records from 1636 to 1772 are printed and indexed The fourteenth volume will shortly be issued by State Librarian Hoaaley. Two vol1mes will be necessary to close the rec ords of the colonial period. The report of the committee was volumnous and showed that thorough, though still incomplete, in vestigation had been made The report was unanimously accepted.
 A vote of thanks was extended to Messrs Adams and Hooker for the report

TOWN vs. DISTRICT ENLARGEMENT
The Condition the Schools Have Fall len Into and the Remedy by the Hoard of Education

nOAF0 OH EOuCatlOn.
 HARTFORD Jan. 20.-The annual report of the State Board of Education just submitted to the legislature finds the common schools Of the State in very unsatisfactory condi- tion, much to the discredit of the grand sys- tenn founded by Senator Hillhouse on the proceeds of Connecticut's western reserve sales. The allegations which will be investi- gated by the committee on investigation are: Too many school houses are unfit to be used, and very many more insuficiently equipped with appliances for teaching. The attendance of large classes of children is irregular and insufficient. There is too little really firstrate teaching in our schools and too much that is very, very poor. Not few of our teachers, particularly in our larger schools, are thoroughly able and well quail fled and some of the best in the country, but the grave fact forced on our notice is that in most of our schools the teachers are decidedly not equal to their work, and that the interests of the children and the commu- nifty are thereby suffering and some are very bad The Board recommend town instead of district management,

The Full Support of Parliament For

 LONDON, Jan. 20.-The Cable News con- pany has been able to secure for publication in America only the following most conspic- uous points of the Queens speech, which will be delivered in the House of Lords to-mor- row:
 Her majesty expresses satisfaction that England is at peace and ia friendship with European powers; congratulates the country upon the peaceful conclusion of the negotia- tions with Russia in the Afghan matter by which that power was estopped from further progress through the territory of Afghanis- with which the campaign in Burmah was prosecuted and the satisfactory fermentation thereof and hope is indulged in that the mission of Sir Henry D. Wolff may be brought to as satisfactory close it's present aspect promises. The Queen regrets that affairs in Ireland should be in so unsettled a condi- tion and hopes that if it shall be found neces- sary to adopt special measures to supersede the ordinary laws for the purpose of uphold ing public order the full support of Parlia- ment will be given to them. Concerning the policy of the go ernnent her majesty an- nounces it's intension to introduce bills pro- viding for the extention of local government in England and Scotland and similar meas ure for Ireland if the circumstances of the country shall render it expedient Among other bills to be proposed at an early date is one to establish an international copyright law. Much re- gret is expressed by her majesty over the de- pression of trade and she earnestly hopes that the commission now inquiring into it's causes may be able to devise some means of improving it's condition and prospects.
 The Cable News company learned to- night upon undoubted authority that it is the intention of the government, if defeated in division upon the Irish question, not to resign, but to appeal to the country.

THE STODDARD LECTURES,

The second of the Stoddard lectures for this season was given last evening at Carll s Opera House. The house was comfortably warm and was again crowded The theme was Napoleon from the Throne to St. Helena" The lecture was listened to with the closest attention and interest through out. The theme was inspiring and the leo turer finely treated it, painting in dramatic and effective manner and in glowing colors the brilliancy and the nagnifcence of the great emperoFls career. His description of the death of Napoleon was vivid and fascinat- ing. MT. Stoddard was just to his subject and was equal to it as far as it could be treated in so narrow scope, While there was so much to interest and entertain, there was much in the way of illustration to be desired but MT. Stoddard furnishes great deal in this department that is intensely interesting. The next lecture, Jan. a7, will be to many the most deeply absorbing of the course .s New walks with Charles Dickens ,,

 No Match for the Visitors.
 The largest crowd seen in Lincoln rink this seoson was present last evening to witness the game of polo between the Springfelds and New Ravens. The players were in their places on time, Kenney, of Boston, being the new man on the New Havens, and he is good one and knows Lis business. In two minutes and forty-five seconds Rowe, of the Springfelds, made their first goal, and a few minutes later the ball was caged by clever stroke of Kenneys and New Haven had won g goal. After this for nearly two hours the teams struggled for goal, and by the time the Springields had made another one, by Perkins of the New Havsns' foul, the speota- tors were getting weary and felt relieved when the Springfelds followed up their luck by making the third goal and thus ending the game. Both teams played good game and fought hard and roughly for the victory but OH the part of the New Ravens it was unavailing. The score was as follows:
