NEW HUT USEFUL.

An Adj djunct to the Printing Business.
 Captain D. S. Thomas of the Rapid Transit printing ofics has adopted the plan of "writing" circulars in addition to printing them. Business firms often lack the time to do this, and find it convenient to have the work done by an experienced hand MT, Thomas belongs to sixteen different secret SC cteties and naturally has very correct ideas about what is wanted. This. together with his long experience upon the local stef of our city papers in years past, gives him a familiarity with the pen that novice can hardly expect to attain. Several of the more elaborate ex- cursion circulars this season were compiled by MT. Thomas, and they form pleasing contrast to the ordinary stereotyped docu- ments issued to the public. It is under stood that this service of writing up cir culsrs and other printing matter is given free to his customers.

The Plan for Electrically Kquipptng
 TomIinson Draw will Not Operate
 Successfnlly.
 The committee on finance of the board of sslectmen met last evening and approved the monthly bills. Thursday evening the joint committee on railroads and bridges of the city and town will meet to further consider the question of motive power on the draw at Tomlinson bridge. From present indications 1t seems probable that the plan of electrically equipping the draw will have to be abandoned as 1t is impos. sibls to get the power sufficiently early in the morning. The plan which will prob ably now be adopted Is to operate the draw by steam power and elevate the power house to the top of the bridge.

 It would have necessarily been a very tedious trip, made in stages and steam boats, and the major concluded he WAS well enough off where he wss Major Barrow was also the delegate from St. Joseph, Mo, to the Philadelphia conven- tion that nominated Scott in 1853, and was also 8 delegate to the convention in Baltimore which nominated Bell and Everett.
 Major Barrow's family had all been dyed d-in-the wool whigs. His brother, Alexander Barrow, was in the senate with Clay, Calhoun, Crittenden, Webster, and Tom Benton, or "Old BulHon," as he was generally called. He was to have been 8 second in duel between Congressman Gerret Davis of Kentucky, afterward senator, and Bailey of Virginia, who was chairman of the committee on ways and means under President Polk, but died at Barnum's hotel, Baltimore, b~fore it oc- cured.
 The duel was to have taken place on the old dueling ground at Bladensbure, Md. However, it did not take place. It is 8 singular coincidence that three Alexanders followed in succession in the senate from Lou'siana-Alexsnder Porter, Alexander Mouton and Alexander Barrow.
 William Walker, "the gray y-eyed man of destiny" Henry Crabb, Frank Cheatham, and John Love were class mates under the tutorship of Moses Stevens, the uncle of the Hon. Moses Stevens, now congressman from Massachusetts. Out of the five Major Barrow is the only one living.

lature would not adopt, was one Of
the most sensible measures that
has been proposed in the state
Legislature of late years. 1t was
destined to defeat at the hands of
such body, but it's defeat is a
defeat for the state. That measure
would have been broad gauge
enough to have satisfied the manu-
