do not come within the restricting provi-
sions as to hours of labor of the British
factory acts. Branding and inspection are
simple processes. Each curer must brand
side of each barrel, as also s'scricvep on
the barrel the date of Catch" day of
''cure" and grrde of fish. Government in
spection consists of assuring barrels of
legal size, proper hopping, the curer's
brands and marks, and proper classiica-

THE CITY TICKET.


The candidates for Mayor are before the
people, and the campaign will be short
one, which is very pleasant feature of it.
There is SO much politics in New Haven
that it sometimes seems as if there were
not much else, but after next Tuesday we
shall have little rest until they get to
fighting over the corporation counsel and
the members of the various boards.
The Democratic candidate for Mayor did
not have very abundant entrance into
his honors, although he s'got there" after
one of the sharpest political campaigns
ever seen in this city. He seems to have
suddenly developed into as good poll
tician as he is a business man, and the
party of which he has SO recently become
an ornament has reason to congratulate
itself on the gain of his force and skill :.
The Republican candidate is the free and
hearty choice Of his party. He was not
taken up to tdown" somebody else with.
He does not represent bosses or rings. He
is conspicuous and successful business
man, the president of the Chamber of
Commerce, and always deeply interested
in anything that pertains to the welfare
and prosperity of New Haven. We will
not compare the personal qualities of the
two candidates. Both are good and re-
spected citizens. But it is fair to ask
which enters into the campaign in the bet
ter way, and which is more likely
to be able to act for the
city without dictation from those
who make candidates in order to control
them if they happen to be elected. Mr..
Sargent occupies his present position
through the favor of a combination of
Democratic workers. Mr.. Dewell occu-
pies his through the spontaneous favor of
those who nominated him. Everybody
knows that he would make good, bust
ess-like mayor. Good citizens, without
regard to party, should vote for him rath-
er than for Mr.. Sargent, who, whatever
his own merits, can hardly escape the con-
troll which Democratic Mayors of New Ha-
ven are always under.
The Republican convention made excel
lent selections for the rest of the ticket.
Mr.. Pierpont, the nominee for auditor, is
known to have unusual qualifications for
the Office. Mr.. Tuttle, the nominee for
city clerk, has had experience in the work
that would be required of him. He would
make useful and popular clerk. Mr.
Richardson, the nominee for treasurer,
knows well the duties of the Office, and
during his occupancy of it performed
them to the entire satisfaction of all con-
cerned. And Mr.. Coleman, the nominee
for sheriff, certainly ought to be continued
| in the place he has SO well filed.

The conclusions reached in the competi-
tive test of steel against compound plates
at Annapolis last September have since
been remarkably confirmed in similar trials
held upon European proving grounds. The
Annapolis contest showed, in the language
of the official report, which has just been
published, that "the compound plate was
perforated by all projectiles and its steel
face was destroyed-two of the shells
passed completely through both plate and
backing" On the other hand, 'sboth steel
plates kept out all projectiles, the all-steel
plate showing slightly greater resistance
than the nickel steel; but the former was
badly cracked by the eight-inch shell,
while the latter remained uncracked." In
relative merit, therefore, the board has
put the nickel steel first, next the steel
plate, and last the compound

Speaking of his recent stay in frst-class

servants and everybody rushing around to
attend to their wants, a very dark, heavily
bearded colored man and wife, both very
distinguished looking. I found him to

SWEET BELLS TANGLED.

oWhEi DniLo JAN6LEDs
A quaint and charming way to welcome
the coming guest, and perhaps to delay the
one departing, is to hang against your door
adelicately-strung, sweet-tonedharp, called
an orchal harmonical. These harps are
about two feet broad and three feet long,
having sounding board with eight strings
strung diagonally across it. From hori-
zontal bar above the sounding board gild
ed bells are hung by flexible wires, each
one of which falls upon its own particular
string. When the uoor is Jared the bells
strike the tense wires, producing light,
sweet jangling as from On invisible chime
Of fairy bells. William M. Chase, the art
ist, has adapted and improved the orchal
harmhnical from similar instrument of
Dutch invention, and has one hanging
against his studio door, to the bewilder-
ment and delight of all visitors.
A BOTANICAL BLUNDER.
In picture representing ancient Orien-
tai life Alma Tadema has introduced fine
specimen of the Jerusalem" artichoke,
believing it to be plant of eastern growth
and in harmony with the other acceesions
OF the picture. But the artichoke is not
of eastern origin; it is q native of Brazil,
and the name Jerusalem is popular mis-
pronunciation of the italian word "gira-
sole," descriptive of it's supposed habit of
keeping it's face turned toward the sun.
The same name is also given to the helia-
trope. Thus was a great artist led into
error to furnish amusement for critics.
This short and true story teaches that to
know anything one must know a great
deal of everything else; depressing moral
when Time flies away so fast. But the peo-
pie who never make mistakes must be
very, very lonely. HILARY.

SHEEP-The interest in sheep

Monthly Crop Report.

WHEAT.-The wheat crop for the
the year 1892 was the largest we
have ever raised. As is usually
the case, those who threshed and
sold early have realized the best
prices. \ great many farmers are
still holding their wheat, not will
ling to sell al present prices From
the county of shelby my CORES
pendent writes, "much more wheat
in the hands Of farmers than this
time last year" We haze the
same report from Ohio county and
others Icould mention. The grow
ing crop was reported as looking
better than was expected until the
present cold spell of weather. The
late sown wheat was making the
best show. The long continued
cold spell, without any snow topro-
tect it will be Very trying on it, the
plant being very small and tender.
ToBACCo.-In the month OF No
yember asked my correspondents
a to the condition of tobacco, which
was given in last report; also the
average price. This month asked
rs to the quality as compared t.
former years. Tobacco is good
crop, aud selling 10 our local buy
ers AT much better prices than for
many years; and further states,
there are plentyof all kindso of farm
products in this section, and good
price, paid for them. The season
mas been remarkably good for
handling, and the crop is well adj
vunced,m Another corresp ondent
writes: tobacco is considered n
better crop III every way than or
several years" our correspondent
from Henderson county writes
Tobacco weighs better than for

give reports just the reverse OF
these. After stunning up all our re-
ports, the quality, a> compared 70
last year, 10 per cent.
