Windham Go. Transcript: It is inti- mated that P. B. Sibley will be candi- date for sh sriff at the fall election. With out any disparagement of any others named, 1t certainly can be said that no better man can be found in the county for the office than Mir. Sibley. Combining in an unusual degree decision and firmness of character with the snavity and courtesy of the well-bred gentleman, and with an experience of many years in the charge of the county jail, he has exceptional quail. tieations for the office, and we believe if he is nominated he will poll larger vote through the county than any other that can be named.

VARIOUS THINGS.

We have never been able to detect s;- lence though we have searched for it in doors and out. In winter there is the voice of the wind, The cracking of ice, the snapping of frost, the breaking of limbs, the call of the birds--no. all birds have not flown when winter comes, there is the chick -a-dee, the crow, the woodpecker, lit- tie snow birds and others, while where fowls are kept there is sound of many voices. In the night is heard the paying of hounds and the barking of dogs, the the wailing of cats and other noises. Wherever life is there is no such thing as silence. When wakefnl nights who has not s'heard the house talk ?'' sounds at times which made the heart beat most un- comfortably. s.
 There were number of brothers gath cred about my chair during recess at the last grange meeting and e8ell to discuss ing the question of ssfree wool" One brother said that he had rather have his woOlen clothes one third wool extract which is the wool taken by chemical pro cess from woolen rags, yet he thought tect our sheep owners another, a wool sorter, told how for years he had worked on wool, the several qualities of wool in each fleece, and that the finest wool he ever saw was grown on one of the islands, but 50 good wool was grown in the United States that the industry ought to be pro- tected; the third that plenty of home grown wool would be means to prevent the use of shoddy, but all were agreed that sheep raising was something that could be made profitable in this country.
 A brother standing by listening to the talk said we had no right to discuss pol itics in the grange. I replied that we were not discussing politics but principle, those around assented and the talk was in. terrupted only when the grange was called to order. Now it seems to me that the subject of wool producing is question that all farmers ought to ounderstand. We keep sheep, there are but few hocks in town as to dogs, in one days ride, taking the census, we saw but four dogs belong ing to farmers and not 8 flock of sheep 4. S. P0rker Sn COsaa. Fnrnes.

TWO CONNECTICUT SOLDIERS.

Extract from Major J. O. Kinney's speech at North Haven July %, commem- orating the 25sh anniversary of the return of her soldiers from the front. The men referred to are Capt. Valentine Chamber lain of New Britain and Col. Frank w. Cheney of South Manchester.
 But, as I said, the land is full of heroes who make no claim to the title "
 It would be invidious to name names, but could point you to 8 good citizen, the father of a splendid family of eight or nine q never can keep the census of his family children, a deacon in a first-class church, solid business man, an ex-treas- urer of the state of Connecticut believed in by everybody for his sturdy honesty, his big heart, and his good head. To see him move about the street, lazily carrying his 250 pounds avoirdupois, you would think him the most quiet, inoffensive and peaceable of law-abiding citizens, as he is. But soldiers of the Seventh Connecticut will tell you how he charged at the head of his command over the deadly sand beach, raked by shot and shell, up the slope and over the parapet of Fort Wag ner never stopping until he found him. self, with a handful of his men, unsupport- ed, inside the rebel works, hopelessly out numbered and overpowered, and obliged to spend year in rebel prisous.
 I recall another figure. One of the fore most manufacturers of the state. No one to look at him would imagine that he had ever been anything from boyhood but an energetic business man. There is in his personal bearing no hint of the soldier. He is simply frst-class citizen, kindly neighbor, gentlemen of refinement and wealth who delights in unostentatious ways to use his wealth to make others hap py. But when he was little more than college boy he led his raw and undrilled regiment-only two weeks from their mus. ter in Hartford-into that fatal cornfield at Antietam, where they were suddenly con- fronted by a whole rebel division, out hanked, cut to pieces, seventy men killed in few minotes, and himself shot through the right arm and badly wounded. He carries through life crippled arm, but he takes pains to do it so inconspicuously, that his business friends who do not know his history, have no knowledge of the terrible ordeal through which he passed, or the disability under which he suffers. Any of us could mention similar circum- stances by the houur. have referred to these merely to call to mind the fact, so easily overlooked ill these pushing times, that the land is full of just such men men who gave their country the best ser vice, from the purest patriotism, and who are to. day doing their duty as citizens in the same spirit, making no parade of their own service and seeking for it no special recognition. ......

"We are obliged to use great care in dealing with children" remarked mer- chant ssChildren sometimes come into the store and ask for ten cents worth of goods, when in fact their parents have given them 12 or 13 cents. They either get less quantity than told to, or buy an inferior article, and spend the other two or three cents for candy or gum. Then we have to take the consequences, either because the article is short weight or is not as good as the mother wanted.
 In this store she proprietors, before de, livering articles to children often send them home for further instructions. !" Sometimes by so doing they lose the pnr. chase altogether, and sometimes the child returns with explicit directions. In order to guard against imposition, the price paid is frequently marked on the package. Children have been seen to wet the thumb snd rub the figures of the paper. Of course it is not expected in all cases that children will dosas related above, or that 1t is the rule. But this story ls told to show to what straits little folks will sometimes go to satisfy a sweet tooth.

At last the trouble at the Willimantic Congregational church seems to be in Q fair way for settlement. Ever since the pastorate of MT. Free the church and so- ciety have been more or less divided. In all the time since MT. Free left, the church has been without settled pastor, except the short time that MT. Sullivan was there. Last week the church decided to call Rev. Geo. w. Judson of Orange, Mass, to fill the vacancy, and the society unanimously lndorsed the action. Rev. M. Judson is said to be a very capable man. It is to be hoped that his pastorate will settle what differences, if there are any, still exist in the church, and be pleasant and profitable to himself and people.
