Messrs Editors:-I see that your regular
correspondent from st. Inigo's gives TO the
public that Mr.. j. Frank Smith il the only
working democrat in the Let Election Dis
trict. Now Sirs, in justice to the democrats
Of this district, | would say that they all
did their duty as well as Mr.. Smith. lie
did no more than they did and that was to
vote the democratic ticket ] claim that
am as good democrat as Mr.. Smith and
go further and say that the hundred and
twenty three he speaks Of are as good as we
are. don't think that your correspondent
can prove that Mr.. Smith did more than
did any other democrat for Mr.. Compton.
would like to know where your cor
respondent was on the day Of Election?

VIM. II. Pembroke and others succeeded
in catching large fox on 10Th. We trust
that these gentlemen will visit this section
often. Their dogs are well trained and
seldom if ever fail to reward them with a
"bushy tail"
Dredgers (white) endeavored to steal
some fattening hogs belonging to j. Leo
Abell recently. Not seeing any person
about the premises and supposing the fami-
y were absent, they repaired to the pen and
were in the act of securing the largest when
Mr.. Abel showed himselfand ordered them
to leave, which they did sans ceren,onte.

Weddings.

St. Aioysius church, this village, has
been the scene of two weddings since Sun
day. The first took place Monday and
was witnessed by but few. The contract
ing parties were, Mr.. John r. Harden and
Miss Jane r.. Thompson. Father Lancas-
ter officiated.
The second marriage was on Tuesday
and was attended by large crowd. Mr..
Francis Dellahay, son of Mr.. Frank Dilla-
hay, sr., was the groom and the bride was
Miss Ida V. Drury, the attractive daughter
of Mr.. Robert Drury. Father Jenkins per-
formed the ceremony.
We extend to the happy couples our sim
cerest congratulations and wish them all
the favors their Church promises to those
who choose, as We have every reason to be-
lieye they have done, well and wisely.

For EeonOmy's sake.

In the trial of petty case of assault in
the Hartford Court, recently, an entire day
was consumed. Says the Bel Air Democrat L:
Judge Walters thought more time was
consumed than was necessary to try so trif-
ling case, and gave notice in substance that
in future, when the tried for similar offences
were found guilty after protracted strug-
gle, that he would add to the fine to be i'm
posed a sufficient amount to pay the ex-
pense of the unnecessary time consumed.
With the court holding this view, it will be
to the interest of those indicted for petty
offenses to have their cases disposed of as
expeditiously as possible"
By thus acting, the learned Judge will
considerably reduce the expenses of his
county and will set an example that other
County Courts might follow with gain of
much time for themselves and money for
the taxpayers.

! THANKSGIVING.

The observance of day of thanksgiv.
ing is wise one, but the observance of
Thanksgiving Gay by unthankfulness and
carousal, as is too often the case, is not
only wholly unwise but is disgraceful and
sinful.
Outside of a few people who profess to
disbelieve in an overruling Providence,
the direct and intervening agency of a
Supreme Being is generally an accepted
faith. That it is becoming to this nation
to recognize this publicly, is self. evident.
Even the brute is grateful to the hand
that feeds it, and nation should not fail
to show gratitude for bounteous harvests,
and numberless temporal blessings.
That these blessings have neither been
few nor small the past year, all can testi-
fly, and while grateful for them, we should
also remember that righteousness ex.
altcth nation, but sin is reproach to
any people, and if we are to expect the
continued blessing of God upon us, we
must be careful to depart from SIM
We must learn to deal justly, abhor cor.
rnption in politics, not only when it helps
the opposite party but when it helps oul
own, and obey all those moral laws thai
are included in the term righteousness. .
There are national sins as we'll as in
dividual sins, and he1who reads history
Alright cannot fail to see that punishment
for these is as sure as for those of the in
dividual. 1t will be sad day for THU
land when the people forget God, or wha
is the same thing, when they forget tc
honor and obey him.

"BOYCOTTING."

Boycotting is exceedingly wrong, that
is, when it is used by laboring men to
prevent capital from crowding them to
the wall but there can be NJ possible OBJ
lection to its use against the workingman.
For instance, it is all right for rail.
road company to black list the names OF
all men who are discharged from its shops
SO that they may be debarred from get
ting employment at any of the shops of
its entire system but it would be wrong
for the workingman to retaliate.
1t is all right for corporations and man.
ufactories to discharge and refuse en-
ployment to those who belong to the
Knights of Labor, but it is an outrage for
the Knights to take organized action
against such concerns.
1t is all right for manufactures to com
bine to crush out trades unions by lock-
outs, iron.clad contracts, etc, but it is
wrong for laboring men to combine and
refuse to trade or deal with men con.
cerned in such injustice, and or to ask their
friends to refuse so to do.
1t is all right for coal companies, manu-
facturers, railroads, etc, to form pools
and unions to keep up prices, aud to i'm
pose fines and boycotts on those who un.
dersell, but it is not right fol laboring
men to form unions TO keep up the price
of labor or to keep it from being put
down, or to boycott those who underpay
their employees and thereby are enabled to
under cell ,hvso who willing ~ pay
fair wages.
Boycotting, as will be seen from these
illustrations, and as we learn from the
constant denunciations of the newspapers
that lackey to capital, is an npjustifiable
weapon in the hands of a workingman.
Workingmen have no business to snatch
weapon from an adversary and use it for
their own defence.
Nevertheless, the boycott will continue.
1t is good thing when it is justifiable
and it is bad thing when it is not.
We notice that the boycott put on
British tea in Boston harbor, over hun
dred years ago, is generally believed to
have been pretty good thing. 1t still
continues to be an excellent remedy II
well and Justly applied against tyrants.

TWO KINDS OF MORALITY.

Under the seemingly innocuous title OF
"The American Secular Union" there are
banded together, with Colonel Robert G.
Ingersoll at their head, number of dis
gruntled persons who complain that So
ciety compels them to behave decently,
whether they want to do SO or not. 1t is
more than probable that large proper
ton of these persons, including their
president, whose conduct in private and
domestic life is understood to be ire
proachable, would never dream of COM
hitting any personal act involving the
condemnation of their fellows, outside
that of appending their signatures to the
preposterous demands" of the platform
just adopted at the meeting 10 Chickering
Hall, New York. The demands are nine
in number, but the eighth section may
fairly DO taken to embrace the spirit of
all the others. 1t is in these words 'We
demand that all laws looking to the en-
forcement of Christian morality shall be
abrogated, and that all laws shall be con-
formed to the requirements of natural
morality, equal rights and impartial lib
erty." If ..natural morality is a su-
perior article to that inculcated by Chris
tianity, by all means give it the prece-
dence, but, when it is found to be advo-
Gated by those who demand the abolition
of all seventh day observances of all
public educational and charitable grants !;
of all public recognition of Divine mercies
by means of fasts aud festivals of all ju-
dicial oaths and of the total severance of
any shadow of respect for a Divine being
10 governmental matters, it is hard to
believe that the new kind of morality"
is worth cultivating.
In effect these demands" assert that
the whole population of the world in the
past, and all that portion in the present,
outside of the membership of the Ameri-
can Secular Union, have been and are,
dots, idiots and wilful victims of delu-
sion.
There is an amount of egotism is such
theory SO closely akin to the self asser.
tive impudeuce of the ordinary ignoramus
that Que naturally shrinks from contact
with it, either repulsively or pityingiy.
The inevitable conviction forced upon any
thinking man by a careful perusal of th q
s'platform' is that, overcrowded as the
insane asylums of the country may be,
there is yet outside of their walls large
contigent that would be more appropri.
ately located inside, under careful medi
cal treatment Nesoark Egeaing Ne,os.

A Day of Rational Enjoyment and
 How Easily 1t is ObtainabIe by
 ToiIers.
 In citys like New Haven thousands of people are so situated that they are compelled by ffthe peculiar circumstances of their own" to remain in the city during the month of August, while others are enjoying vacation among the mountains or at the seaside, get ting relief from care and change of air, so important to health. But New Haven is greatly favored by the many instrumental ties furnished which, if improved, will greatly invigorate our citizens and prepare them to bear the summers heat and gain strength for the winters work. The writer has enjoyed many of the excursion trips for day to the various places of attraction available to New Haven, and would recom- mend these means of pleasure to all those who can get away for day, not only for the joy it gives, but the profit in health and strength. Over and above all the cost for a few days of sickness and doctors bills will offset many day of pleasure on the water. Although an old citizen and supposed to know about the various attractions so freely advertised here, was thoroughly surprised in my experience last week. I took day or, ana Wlth uttle famlIy party of seven, we sailed on the Pastime, delight ful boat, (owned by H. B. Plant, I believe,) leaving about ten o'clock in the morning, stopping at Branford Point, Pawson Park, reaching Thimble Islands about 12 o'clock, just long sail enough not to be weary. See ing the little incident of loading and unload ing of human and other freight at the differ ent landings we had time for sail up to Stony Creek to Money Island, leaving at 3:30 for home, arriving in time for tea and a good nights rest in our own home. Now write this, Messrs Editors, to say have no interest in any boats or railroads, but do want to make people happy, and wish every family could enjoy and be equally surprised with me at the comfort to be taken on the Pastime. Make up party of your neigh bors or go alone, it will pay. N.

The Market Extremely Dull And List less-But Few Operators On Change And The Dealings Few And Ins1g- nif1cant.

NEW YORK, Aug. IA.
 The stock market was extremely dull today and less than 10O shares changed hands. This is the smallest business since July r, when the transac- tons reached only 9O,0OO shares. The attendance at the Exchange was slim, and the prominent oper- ators were absent from the street. Such huctua- tions occurred were solely the work of the trad CTS, who for the moment seemed to be content with very small profits on either side of the account. Lake Shore declined from STA to 861s and rallied to 871S while Jersey Central advanced from 544 to 5511 These were the widest changes in the general list, the other stocks having moved up and down number of times during the day within a radius of 1S to per cent The news was not of an import ant character. The Reading company advanced coal 10 25 cents per ton and telegrams from Chi cago stated an examination Of the Lake Shore books had failed to discover evidences of cut ting story was circulated that the Baltimore & Ohio had been declared out of the trunkline pool, but this subsequently, denied. The sales of stocks amounted to only ,137 shares, against 177 173 yesterday and 224 261 Thursday. The lar gest transactions were in Lake Shore, Ii TAO shares St. Paul 9,575, Peoria Decatur & Evansville s,s60 and Lackawanna 6, ,97O shares Peoria, Decatur 6 Evansville advanced to 2s14, and Manhattan to 131z the latter the highest price yet reached. Col orado Coal declined from 2S1a to 234 and returned to 2s16. Norfolk and Western preferred fell off from 435s to 4S and rose to 43s4. New York and England dropped from 441a to 4334 and rallied to 44A
