Parrott, president of the 'Olmstead Paral- Tel" to the effect that it was now admitted that the H. & H. was dead MT. Baldwin further said: ''The railroad commissioners have printed a true statement in their report which shows what the road spent for right of way, location of line and for real estate. The report shows that S20, ,6s5. 39 was ex- pended for engineering; $35, ,434. .93 for engi- neering and equipments; $S21 25 for ex- penses of the railroad commissioners (paid to the State treasurer) and other items which are given in full, amounting in all to $100,- 4S7.59.

 o. Howes, of the railroad restaurant and skating rink at West Haven, which he so successfully manages during the summer sea- son, writes to friend in this city from St. Augustine, Florida, under date of January 16, follows:
 The present winter will be remembered by Floridians as the winter of winters. More wood piles and coal heaps ended in smoke on January 10, Il and 12, 1886, than ever be- fore, within the memory of the oldest in habitants. I don't know the cause of the unusual disturbance unless it is this: Many of our native people have wished to expe rience the rigor of northern climate: but their purse strings would not allow. So the great ''Governor," to anticipate their wants has brought the long sought for consummation to their doors. Another generation may perhaps experience a recurrence, but not this. The people most certainly will entertain not the most cordial feelings for the author of their woes (the freeze), but I think wisdom prevails. There are miaslnatic influences in our swamps and lowlands that develop into a miasma during the summer, and this will be enumerated by the late precedented freeze. prefer a little cold ir homeopathic doses to climate that freezes men and animals. People in coming to this country think they can Eepose in bed of roses, and regale themselves in sunshines of never-ending pleasure.
 Land speculators picture to outsiders this ''sunny land of flowers" which is never clouded, and no reverses. People are too fond of being humbugged, and delight in following the lead of falsifiers; but for mild ness of climate and richness of fruit, Florida, in my mind, stands pre-eminent in this coun-

 Allcock's Porous Plasters have been used in our family for the last three or four years with very beneficial results. Previous to that time I had been subject to attacks of a severe pain in my left side. Hot cloths and liniments afforded temporary relief, but after while the pain always returned In the fall of 1SS0 after a very severe attack, l was advised by friend to try an Allcock's Porous Plaster on my side, which greatly benefited me. After that I tried several kinds of plasters to see which was best, and finally decided that Allcock's suited my case the best. I have worn them constantly on my side ever since, and have never been troubled with the pain, except when l left them off for few days. we always keep a supply in the house, and whenever pain seizes any of us, in any part of the body, we justly apply an Allcock's Plaster, and can mostly heartily recommend them.

President Shelton of the Derby Silver Company Receives Notice That the

President shelton or the Derby S1lVer
 Company Receives Notice That the
 Boycott is to Begin at once.
 Yesterday President Shelton of the Derby Silver company received official notice from John w. Hayes stating that the executive board of the Knights of Labor held meet ing January 14th at the Astor House, New York, and had decided to issue national boycott on the goods manufactured by the company. The notification was couched in respectful language and regret was expressed that necessity compelled them to take such course and hope that the boycott would not be lasting. A copy of the pamphlet prepared for distribution throughout the United States was inclosed. The action was taken on the 14th in accordance with the terms of Mr. Hayes last proposition, and as the company had not complied by the 18th, the boycott now goes forth. There has been no noti6ca- tion received by the other concerns threaten ed and it therefore seems that the entire power of the boycott is to be concentrated on the Derby Silver company's goods.
 MT. Shelton was asked what he thought of the effect and replied: ''I don't wish to say anything. It were better it had not hap pened ''
