Verse Writing.

MISS RnoIpS m the ConGury.l
 stIn our own immediate times verse wri- ting has become something more of the na- ture of disease than of an honor. A spe- cies of rhymophobia pervades the cultivated world. Like the bite of the bitten victim, fashionable forms of construction extend. There is coptagion in them. The strain for effect has become virulent. We feel, per force, sympathy with the half playful but wholly earnest revolt of Dr. Holmes against the epidemic character of our debilitatsd verse. That over balanced struggle for per. lection of manner which stiles the spirit; the renaissance of obsolete forms which viti- ates the moderness of sympathy so necessary to healthful work; the endless tricking and decking of little thoughts; the apparent un- consciousness of whether ones thought be large or little, or whether it be worth think ing at all, or if worth thinking, whether worth thinking in poetry-these qualities characterize so much of the verse of our day that one may be pardoned for becoming more aware of them than of some other and bet4 ter traits which undoubtedly accompany them. It may be said that there is certain loss of the sense of proportion in our poetic power. By this mean that higher propor- tion which is to proportion of form as the soul is to the human body. We do not build loftily. We do not live to last. We do not always know why we build at all. The re- suit is lack of architecture. But we have plenty of verse-carpentering; done as neatly as the service of Adam Bede, who thought the world was to be saved by conscientious days labor. But the paper cap of the work man looks over the whole job..'

rmE CONenKssIoNAL FIGHT.

To-day VIII Decide Who Will be the Dennorrmtae Nominee For Congress From This District. The Democratic congressional convention will be held at Turn Hall this afternoon at 1 o'clock. The affair has been the talk among
 politicians of both parties for some time.
 There are two candidates in the ield-James P. Pigott of this city and Judge Wilcox of Middlesex county.
 Both men are confident of winning. Bets were made yesterday of five to four by the Pigott men that he would be nominated. This signifies that there will be big fight at the convention to-day.
 French will probably get some votes, but he has given it out that he is not candi- dates. The Wilcox men say that they have the convention sure if all the delegates vote for him who have promised to. and his lead srs saw that if they don't keep their word that there will be some loud talking. The Pigott leaders. on the other hand, claim that they have majority of the delegates pledged for their man.
 So tho convention this afternoon will be an interesting one.
 Nr. Pieott's name will be presented by James Gallagher It is said by Wilcox's sup porters that # the Pigott men see they are defeated they will go for Gallagher as dark horse. The Wilcox men say they are for WIIeox first, last and all the time.
 WiIcox's name will be presented by either Judge D. J. Denohue of MlddletoWn, or Hon, Clinton B. Davis of HaddAm.

 Councilman Hayes inquired of Councilman Gessner if he knew that Col. Bohan had sent in the resolution.
 Councilman Gessner answered that he did know Col. Bohan was at the bottom of it.

NEW RAVENS FUTURE.
GGs Coming Increased Importance as
 Commercial City.

Commercial CItys
 The Real Estate Record says: The event of New Haven becoming aR important com meroial city may be looked upon as an i'm probability by some, but the following from the Boston Daily Advertiser, recognized authority on these subjects, would indicate that 1t is considered as reasonably certain by well informed outsiders:
 "* but she can scarcely expect to rival Boston in this respect, for our eom- merce has been the result of nearly cen tury of unceasing development, and conse- quently has taken too firm root to be easily diverted elsewhere, yet what the future may may have in store for us, with New Haven also coming in for share of foreign traffic, it is quite too early to predict. We can see no reason, however, why Connecticut's me- tropolis should not become the seat of an extensive foreign trade; the geographical sit nation, railway system and excellent harbor are all there; what they hav'nt got is suni- cient depth of water, and that is easily se- cured, as the bottom is composed or light clay which will not refill when once removed. H# The extension of the Derby line to connect the Poughkeepsie bridge is consid- cred the first move toward the above object, which will ultimately place New Haven high up in rank among our commercial cities"

 There was strike at the Webster school yesterday morning of the men employed in erecting the new building. Contractor Ho- gan was not pleased with the work of some of the men. It is the desire of the board of education to have the building completed as soon as possible and Contractor is doing his best to carry out that idea. He has noticed, however, that some of his men were killing considerable time and he told them so yes- terday. This produced words and Hogan finally discharged five of the men.
 The other men then told the contractor if he did not take the discharged men back they would strike. He did not take them back. Barkley Randall, one of the men, as- saulted Contractor Hogan and yesterday after noon he was arrested for e breach of the peace. The strike will not hinder the work on the building, as other men will be engaged immediately.
