The Road Many Travel.

The Road Many Travel. Work too hard.
 Worry about business and family. Then will come headaches. - And sleepless nights will many. Food will not digest. Heart will palpitate. The memory fail.
 Skin grow sallow. Melancholy veer present. The back wilt ache, and deadly kidney disease will seem imminent.
 Muscles will become fabby. Eyes look sunken and dark circled. Both body and brain are full of misery. Ordinary remedies are useless. Even the best physicians fail to relieve. Yet there is means of cure. Simple, scientific, sure.
 It ia positive food for brain and nerves and has a wonderful record of cures. It is Paine's celery compound. Try it. Sound sleep will come.
 Use more.
 Indigestion will be cured.
 Another bottle.
 The muscles will be firm, heart regular, nerves strong, and brain vigorous. And this pure compound will have saved one more from the sufferings of nervous pros tration.

NEW YoRK, December B. The stock market to-day opened quiet and firm, displaying disposition to advance, but was met in the early trading by a continuation of the pressure upon Missouri Pacific and Northern Pacific preferred which in the former occasioned a loss of per cent. The decline made no further progress, however, and while Western Union be- came weak the rest of the list broke away from it and prices steadily mounted, though only in few stocks was the improvement of any import ance. Even Western Union closed with only fractional loss. The industrials were strong.

 On this glad day. For all thy loving care, For blessings rich and rare, Towards us another year,
 Tribute we pay. While other lands afar, Are swept by floods and war
 And famine sore. Plenty ana peace abide, Throughout our country wide, No woes the homes betide,
 On QUE blest shore. Help us, wephumbly pray, To thank thee every day,
 For thy dear Son. Whom thou dids't send to die, That lost humanity, Might lift their eyes to thee
 Upon thy throne.

Funeral of Charles Atwater.

The funeral service over the remains of Charles Atwater were held yesterday from his late residence, 189 Church street. Dr. Daggett, son-in-law of the deceased, had charge of the funeral, which was largely attended and was as much without dis. play as the plain, honest life of the de- ceased. The burial service was read by the Rev. Father Hartigan of St. Mary'a church, in the presence of the immediate friends and relatives of the deceased.
 The bearers were ex-Governors Charles R. Ingersoll and Henry B. Harrison, ex- Mayor John B. Robertson, ex-Juage Will liam 0. Robinson, General s. E. Merwin and Horace Day. The interment was in Evergreen cemetery.

 Thayer.
 The case of Stephen L. Usher against Wilson Nottingham, both of West Haven, was brought to trial yesterday, after being on the docket for more than year and half. The suit is for money loaned and services rendered, amounting to about $40,0O for which Mir. Usher sues. He is represented by Attorney Russell, while Law yers Bush, Kieiner and Henry Stoddard appear for MT. Waddingham, who is ill in Kansas City. Mir. Usher was an attentive listener to the pro- ceedings.
 A greater part of the day was taken up with the reading of the depositions from witnesses unable to appear in court. The trial may last some days.
 The quo warranto case of Sanger vs. Henry was also on the trial list, but it will not be reached until the Waddingham suit is finished, and then 1t will probably be continued toawait the decision of the supreme court in the gov ernOr case.

troops was despatched to overtake and at tack him, they found him so skillfully for tifed as tc deem it wise to retreat. Hay ing no orders to assume the offensive he commenced, under Goodyear's lead, 6 march towards Oregon. A portion of this route had been traversed when his com mand was intercepted by an officer and guard conveying despatches to the United States consul at Monterey, as we'll as to Fremont himself, wherever he could be found. The tenor of these instructions were to repair at once to California and use all exertions to render the settlers there favorable to annexation to the United States.
 Fremont turned at once to the valley o1 the Sacramento.
 Arriving there, he was attacked by General Castro but so rapid and forcefu were Fremont's movements that within sixty days from his arrival the Mexicans were driven from Northern California ard the country freed from their author fly.
 In one of the encounters Castro ob tained an advantage over Colonel Ere nont's forces; the latter's command wal saved his life by swimming river under heavy fire. At this time he lost many valuable papers, records of his journey. Peace being declared, there arose tri angular quarrel between General Kearney Commodore Stockton, and Colonel Ere. mont. The latter was ordered home un. der arrest, his command was transferred and Goodyear returned to the old trading post For his services in rescuing Ere mont's party and in the hazardous Mexi- can campaign, he was shabbily treated by the government. It was not until 1853 that congress granted him relief and then only in the pitiful sum of $1 900. In the spIing of 1847 Andrew Good year, 8 brother of Miles, set out from New Haven in search of the wanderer. In the thirteen years of the latter's absence no word had been received from him. Late in the fall of that year, when about twenty five miles west of Independence, Mo, Andrew fell in with party of Nor mons returning from an expedition.

Barnum's Latest Plans.

Z. II. Barnum now holds all the land
from State street to the rear of the South
church. His new building will cover the
entire ground and will have a frontage
on three streets, State, Broad and Court
streets. The lower floor, as shown by
the plans, will contain several very large
and desirable stores. The upper floors
will be used for various purposes. The
exterior will be of elegant design and
will make a very imposing structure,
costing about $65, 900. 1t will be fitted
up with every modern convenience known
to the century and will add much to the
beauty of this neighborhood. Mr. Bar
mum will take possession of the church
property about April ! and his agent, c.
r. Brothwell, will then begin to demol-
ish the old buildings.
Mr. Barnum has also given the histori-
cal and scientific societies orders to erect
the building to have been built after his
death, on the lot which he bought for
this purpose, several years ago, at a cost
of nearly $4,000. Architects Lambert
and Bunnell are preparing plans of the
building, which will be of brick, with
brown stone trimmings, with high tow
err for a clock, which is needed on Main
street. The lot is about so feet square
and the building will cover the entire lot.
The first floor will contain three stores,
the entrance to the upper floors to be on
the corner. Above the stores will be two
museum rooms, one room for the medical
society and one each for the scientific and
historical societies. The next floor will
be fitted as large hall. The fourth
floor will be divided off into number of
rooms to be used by the societies. This
building will have all modern conven-
fences as to heating, ventilation, etc. :;
also large fire proof vaults. The new
building will be named the 2. L. Barnum
Endowment for Science and History.
With this building on one corner, the
Young Mems Christian Association
building on the opposite corner and P.
Il. Barnum's Recreation hall building ad-
joining, this region will certainly attract
attention from people passing down Main
street.

FAIRFIELD.

After viewing the premises at F. NJ. r.
Stevens's, commissioners, attorneys and
witnesses adjourned to the court house at
Bridgeport, last week Thursday, to hear
evidence in the claim for damages by Mr.
Stevens. At the time the macadamized
road was built in Stratfield, the road was
cut down several feet in front of the
Stevens place and the town declined to
allow the amount of damages asked.
George w. Hayes of Bridgeport, Ormel
Hall of Trumbull and Judge Silas b.
Sherwood of Westport were the COM
missioners appointed by the Superior
court and, as evidence was submitted,
the town was represented by Judge w.
B. Glover and Mrs Stevens by Joseph J.
Rose of Bridgeport. Mrs Stevens, who
owns the property subject to the dover
right of her stepmother, Mrs Seeley, now
asks $1,000 damages. The town brought
forward number of witnesses to prove
that the place has received no damage,
but rather benefit, by the grading for
the road, while Mrs Stevens seeks to show
that the place has been directly damaged
by the grading and that, even if the bank
can be leveled, as the town claims. eight
trees standing along the 200-foot front
will have to be cut down and that at
least some remuneration should be given
for the destruction of these and for the
cost of grading. The witnesses examin-
ed for the town, last week Thursday.
were John E. Osborne, Clapp Spooner,
John c. Curtiss, Moses E. Banks, Ezra
S. Seeley, B. d. Pierce, Jr, who built the
road. Though the town had submitted
but few of its witnesses, the hearing
was adjourned to Tuesday, March 8, at
10 M.
