The argument of the Democrats In
the Legislature in favor OF returning
to the old delinquent system OF dis
reimbursement. was that it would re-
suit in an increased collection OF taxes.
1t is difficult to see how preventing a
thousand persons from getting as
sessed could result in increasing the
amount of taxes collected. but 1t is
not difficult to see how 1t must in
crease the Democratic majorities in
Kent and Sussex Counties.

The Connecticut river is frozen solidly from Hartford to Long Island sound. No open places are reported anywhere down stream, and the people of the lower river towns frequently drive from place to place on the ice. In the lower liver the ice is reported to vary from eight to eighteen inches, the lesser depth being found where the current runs strong. But even this is far more than is needed to bear teams safely. At Saybrook Point the ice ex- tends solidly out to the end of the break water, and it is possible to walk over it to and from the lighthouse, without any risk, except in coming ashore, as the rising and falling tide makes broken ice along the edge of the land.

At present she is engaged in proof reading, but will soon enter the department of her profession as type writist and stenographer. Miss Hattie is thoroughly equipped for the business. Such combination of talent with appli- cation of work in one so young deserves your every expression of praise...... We hear that MT. John Carmon recently paid $50 for 8 couple of barrels of pork.
