The Great ship Launch-A Peculiari-
 ty About the Oyster CrOp-General
 Notes of Interest.
 By all odds the prettiest ship launch that ever took place in Fair Haven was that of the four-masted schooner, the Napoleon B. Boughton, which took place at noon yester- day from Hanscom's yard. Over {, ,0e0 peo- pie witnessed the event which occurred at 12:05 precisely, and as the vessel dove into the water Miss Lizzie Stiles, daughter of Captain Stiles, who will command the Boughton, broke the conventional bottle of champagne over the bow of the boat. The Boughton's dimensions are as follows: length over all, 195 feet; length of keel, 172 feet; beam, 3S feet; length of masts, 94 feet: length of topmasts, 52 feet; length of spank CT boom, 68 feet; length of gaff. 38 feet; length of mizzen boom, 38 feet; mizzen gaff, 37 Ia feet; main and fore booms, 35 feet; main and fore gaffs, 34 feet; capacity, 1, 500 tons at draught of 15 feet. The bowsprit runs out 30 feet and the jib-boom is 60 feet long. The vessel cost $36. 300. The Bough- ton now lies alongside of Hoytis dock and will take about ten days.
 Remember that the polls clofe at 5 o'clock this afternoon. Every Fair Havener should vote as early as possible.
 There were a lot of 'bluff" bets offered by local Democrats yesterday. When it came to putting up the money or shutting up, the would be betters, for the most part, chose the latter course.
 Oyster dealers say that the stock that is now taken up from the harbor bottoms is quite good, as is that caught inside the new light house. This is @ depaI ture from former years, as the harbor stock has usually been rather poor. This year the stock outside is the poorer.
 There was small runaway in the annex yesterday noon. A pair of horses attached to wagon owned by an Eest Haven farmer became frightened and ran at the four cox- ners, but no damage was done.

 MeetIDg-Tnteresting Addresses.
 The third annual meeting of the New Ha- ven branch of the Connecticut Indian associ- ation was held yesterday afternoon at the chapel of the Church of the Redeemer. Rev. Dr. Todd presided and opened the meeting with reading of scripture and prayer. The report of the secretary told of the work done at Fort Hall agency by Miss Frost, the mis- sionary of this branch, and her colleague, Miss Stiles, who is sent by the State associa- tion. The treasurer's report showed 8 ball. ance on the right side, nearly $500 being added to the receipts by the "Wa-Wa." {" Officers were then elected for the coming year: President, Mrs. George B.

Mrs. Galpin; corresponding secretary, Mrs. s. D. Gilbert; treasurer, Miss Whedon.

Rev. Prof. Stevens then gave graphic account of his three days visit at the agency as the guest of the mis- sionaries during last August. Though the work demands the greatest sacrifice and seems in many ways diseouraging, yet oul missionaries are doing all that is possible with faithfu1ness, zeal and shrewdness. It is only by acts of kindness shown in practical ways that these apathetic savages can be touched. Professor Brewer gave a short his tory of the Shoshone tribe, who were former.

November 5, 1888. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Please allow me space to say that your Fair Haven itemist was in error when he stated that 'Rev. Phebe A. Hanaford made tenn perance address to large audience at the rink yesterday afternoon. ." for I was not pres ent at the rink and had previously signifed to the efficient ladies of the W. 0. T. U. that my duties on Sunday were such that could not speak in the afternoon anywhere that day.
 Permit me also to state that while have advocated prohibition for twenty years and Republican party, having been thoroughly opposed to slavery from childhood and hay ing the impression indelibly stamped upon my mind that the Republican party saved the Union in the late civil war, and that it has stood for the noblest political principles for many year.
 As, being a woman (and thus on the stat ute books elassed with criminals, idiots and lunaSics), have no vote, but if I had l should most certainly show at the polls "the courage of my convictions" even if l had to deposit ''scratehed ticket" A con- scientious vote for Hiram Camp as governor would not permit me from casting one equal ly as conscietious for Benjamin Harrison as president.
 In 1S40, as little girl, I wore Harrison medal, the gift of an enthusiastic sea captain uncle, whose earnest speech first made me in terested in political matter and whose ship was fortunately in port long enough for him to cast his vote for "Tippecanoe and Tyler too." He has "gone over to the majority, but if he were on earth feel sure that he would not go over to the Democratic party. but would be jubilant over the prospect of electing another Harrison.
 Having no vote, I earnestly pray fGod speed the right!" and desire that every voter may be protected at the polls. whether North or South, that 50 faithful expression of the majority of the voters may be secured. Yours for God and home and native land"

Interesting Services AZ Christ Church.
 The Hoy Choir.
 At Christ church Sunday morning the Rev. Mir. Whitney, the rector, delivered discourse from the 10th chapter of St. John, 10th and 18th verses, after which the communion was administered. Usually the first Sunday in the month the afternoon services are devoted to catechising the children by the rector, Last Sunday afternoon the services were made more interesting, and large congrega- tion was present to witness the ceremonies and listen to the singing of the boy choir. which was announced in the COURIER.
 The children were clothed in surplices and entered the church from the vestry room, singing "Onward, Christian Soldier" The effect WAS beautiful, and the singing grand. The children were then installed by the pas- tor, and as they entered the chaneel two by two the rector said: F'I admit you into this choir in the Lords sanctuary in the name of the blessed trinity" Prayers followed the installation, and the Psalter of the fourth evening of the month was read, the congre- gation responding. The first scriptursl les son was from the first chapter of the Book of Proverbs, and the second lesson was the sec- ond chapter of the Epistle to St. John, fol- lowed by the usual services of the Episcopal church.
 A wee little baby girl was candidate for baptism and received the name of ''Amy Elizabeth" The hymn "He is Lord of Lords and King of Kings" was sung by the choir, the rector briefly catechised the Sun day school children, addressed the congrega- ton, and the services closed by the choir de- parting from the church singing. As the voices died away in the distance an old lady remarked that it was Heavenly; the true way to worship" she believed Mrs. Honeyman presided at the organ.
 The ladies of the church have been en- gagged for some time in making surplices for the choristers, and Rev. MT. Whitney has had sole charge of teaching the children. The duties have been arduous, both for the ladies and the minister, but they feel that the re- suit attained has amply rewarded them and the church has secured the services of an eff ciant choir of tMentY-fve voices.
