in September to preach in the First Con. gregational church at Willimantic, the pull. pit of which was recently vacated by Rev. s. R. Free, surprised his congregation Sunday morning by reading his resigna l ton. MT. Sullivan gave as reasons that he did not know when he went that the church was independent of the Congrega. tionaI conference, that the church does not seem disposed to grant his request te return to the conference, and install him as settled pastor, and finally that his wife's health makes resignation imperative. MT Sullivan says ''I accepted your call be cause believed that you were willing an6 ready to return to Congregational princi pies of church government. Two of these principles are: the fellowship of tht churches, and the installation by counci of the pastor. Having been in sympathy with these two principles of historic Con gregationalism during ministry of ter years they seem to me to-day more neces tsary tU our mission for Christ as denom ination than they did ten years ago. Many of the ablest Congregational ministers ant suspicion on a church and on it's pasto which is Congregational in name, but is il fact independent. This suspicion, in m, judgment, is grounded in Congregational ism, which is historic in Connecticut ant in New England. It is my conviction tha neither of these two principles would re ceive the unanimous approval of thi church and ecclesiastical society,"" Tn Chronicle says that "No one had tn slightest suspicion that he contemplate' such course.' "The Congregations church and society will respectively hol' meetings the fore part of next week t.
 take action on MT. Sullivan's resignation l-probably Wednesday night. Both com mittees are unanimous in their desire no to accept the resignation, and are willing to call church council to install him a pastor. And one of the committeeman as serts that nine-tenths of the church an, society are of the same mind. :"

The New York Mail and Express is one

The New York Mail and Express is one of the cleanest papers in the country, and is fit to be read in any family circle, or in any other place. It is sprightly and able, gives the news and keeps free from sensa- tionalism. Like the independent" papers it is partisan, unlike them it does not as- sumo to be non-partisan.
 The presence of Mr. Blaine in the city Tsays a Washington writer has excited 8 lively local interest in the question of cab- met possibilities. MT. Blaine is placed by thls condition of affairs in very unenvia-. ble position. His hotel has been besieged by reporters and correspondents of metro politan papers who have been instructed by managing editors to obtain interviews | with him on the ruling political question of the day :; and to all these MT. Blaine has been obliged to deny himself studi- ously. He cannot comment on the presi- dent-elect or venture an opinion of the possibilities of his choice for members of
 his political family. MT: Harrison has
 told him no more than he has told any one
 else. and I have the authority of those
 who have talked with MT. Harrison re-
 gently, and for whom he sent to Washing.
 ton, that he has told no one anything con-
 corning his plans. One senator who went
 to Indianapolis and had long talk with
 Gen. Harrison said to me on his return to
 this city: "When they tell you that liar.
 rison has said or intimated this CT that
 concerning his plans, believe nothing ol what they say. Mir. Harrison asks great many questions, but he has not committed himself in any way, and do not believe he has made up his mind yet"
 It was reported at the time MT. Blaine was visiting Mr. Phelps that he was un we'll, and that he had been confined to hi room for an entire day through physica r indispositiop. The stories of MT. Blaine' health had no foundation in fact. He i in splendid physical condition, and he i , evidently determined to remain so, for h is taking excellent care of himself. H exercises 8 great deal, and is almost ab stemious in his diet. He has been in tn , best of health since he has been in tn , city.
