[ooNcLuDED FROM FIRST pAaE.]

landlords, while certainly rapacious for the last farthing that could be pinched out of the crofter, in cold blood actually cal culated upon a certain percentage of ar rears piling up against the terrified crofter, so that all slavish commands were quickly assented to and additional burdens were imposed without protest. Outrages under this form of duress were countless. But under the Crofter's act the crofter is abso- lutely independent of proprietor or factor, as long as he pays the flair rent" fixed by the commission. He may vote as he pleases, pay his rent with his hat on, his children may remain at home, or even marry, without the proprietor's written consent, and, marvel of land-law progress! he may worship at the Established, the Free, or at Catholic church, without the vengeance of bigot master overriding him.
 All this, in degree, is hopeful and good. But fear help has come to the crofters too late. They possess many of the no- blest characteristics of the noble Scotch race Their home-life, of which I shall speak in the next article, and their social betterment, barely possible under new al though wholly inadequate conditions, would seem to give no good ground for encouragement. There are too few of them. Those who remain are huddled by proprietors into crofter settlements and there restricted from the full development of their kindly instincts and admirable energies by miserably insufficient areas of land. In brief, the landlord class practi- cally extirpated the crofter class before they would permit the enactment of laws to protect the latter. It was like specific law against specific murder, after tho kill ing had been committed. Over fve-sixths of the entire area of the northern and western Scottish Highlands are now in sheep-walks or game preserves and princi- pally- the latter. I can take you across Scotland through the shires of Inverness and Ross, from Beauty to Strome, and yor may climb every mountain peak between without your being able to count two score crofter tillers of the soil. A lanc has become desolate indeed when it's roads and by-paths are transformed into pathi for deer and courses for hounds, and tn. blackened walls of once happy homes intt 1airs for foxes and wolves.

 NEw YORK, Nov. IA.
 Stocks opened very irregular today, with a marked loss in g few stocks Louisville and Nash vile being down per cent, Union Pacific IA and Atchison and c. c. c. and St. Louis H each. Western Union and North American were the only really strong stocks on the list, the former opening with a gain of 1M per cent and the lat ter rising in the early trading from 1118 to IA. severe drive was made against Pacific Mail with the first sales and it was depressed sM per cent. The stock later seemed to have good support and made substantial rally. The great feature of the forenoon's transactions, however, was the weakness in Lackawanna, for which there was no explanation. It's decline was almost eontinu- ous and in the afternoon it touched 1311x, from which it recovered only ss per cent, against 131A last evening. North American, for the first time in many days, ceased to be the most prominent stock on the list and for some time it was comparatively neglected, while the transac- tions in it during the day reached very ordina- ry figure. The early advance was not held and it slowly drifted back to the neighborhood of ii. There were no new developments in regard to the affairs either of the company or the men who are most prominent in it. The feature of the later dealings was the heavy selling of Northern Pacific preferred, W hich from 60A declined to 57 and like Lackawanna rallied only Q small frac tion. The general impression " as that most oi the selling came from parties who he Id it as col lateral for loans, and who bought it in at the ex change. The bears, however, were very active in the stock and it's transactions ran up to the largest. figure yet There was g good buy ing 1T the common, which kept it steady throughout the day. Sugar Refneries in the afternoon had a sharp drop and all the leading grangers were weak with Louisville and Nashville, of whicf there was considerable sold for foreign account The market continued to settle down slowly and steadily and finally closed active and weak, al or near the lowest prices of the day.

 slight.
 Another grade crossing accident oc- cured in this city yesterday afternoon when Dana w. Bradley, farmer, resid- ing on Main street at tho Four Corners, had very narrow escape from instant death. Bradley, who peddles coal and vegetables about the city, was driving across the Blatchley avenue crossing of the Shore Line railroad when he was struck by the incoming express duo in this city about 2:30 p. m. Bradley was thrown forcibly out and the wagon was torn clear from the shafts and knocked to one side, but only hind wheel was broken. The horse was uninjured and was found standing composedly where it was when the wagon left it.
 MT. Bradley is sixty-fve years of age. The external bruises which he sustained are but slight and it is expected that he will be out and around again in the course of few, days. He was thrown ten feet and when picked up was dazed and almost unconscious. The injured man was taken home by his son, who was notified of the accident by telephone. The resi- dents in the vicinity state that the whistle of the train was blown loudly at Fillmore street and it is thought that the view ot the incoming train was hid from Bradley by covered wagon at his side which ob- structed his view.

ST. FRANCIS, ASYLUM.

The Annual Donation Day Next Wednesday-A Reminder to the Public.
 To the Public-The committee having in charge the collection of donations to the St. Francis orphan asylum again appeal to you for generous remembrance of this most worthy institution.
 Having at all times in the past met with the hearty and substantial support of the people of New Haven, we feel assured that the annual donation day of 1890 (Wednes- day, November 19,) will prove no exception to those of previous years, and in order that the money and merchandise collected may prove of greater benefit to the asy- lum and increase the pleasure and happi- ness of the approaching Thanksgiving day to those little ones who; bereft of their natural parents, are dependent on the charity of their fellow men, we would re- spectfully urge you to contribute as largely as possible. Very respectfully,
 THE COMMITTEE, ALEXANDER EMERY, President. HUaH I. FINNEGAN, Secretary.
