The Annual KesOlye

Under the above caption the Hartford Times has the following, which will probably apply as well here-a in Hartford:
 EsForce of habit and education leads very many persons to start fresh resolutions on the threshold of every new year. If they be- come convinced in July or August that some well established habit is harmful; there is 8 natural disposition somehow to postpone it's correction until the 1st of January. These New Year resolutions are hrst-rate so far as they go, and may lift fellow out of many difficulties; but the danger is that fixed point of departure, with no variation, may leave too many unburned bridges behind. While one day is as good as another, in any season of the year, to start on new track; yet, if people will have it SO, the beginning of a new year is, for a single trial much better than no departure at ail If statistics could be gathered in it would be interesting to know how many men in Hartford will quit drinking and smoking after tonight, and it would be still mere interesting to stand the crowd up by the first of February and catalogue the fail Uregn
