of Mineral Springs, was in town
Friday. He is Ga years old and has
been citizen of Arkansas 60 years,
and has lived in the same neighbor-
hood all the time. Speaking of
hard times and low cotton he said
he remembered that in 1S47 money
was scarcer than at present, cotton
sold at FIVE cents and the net pro
ceeds of cotton shipped by river to
New Orleans was ZIG per bale. Mr..
Draper is preparing to move to

dow to see that from nearly every house front were displayed the red, white and blue for Newtown Street and Sandy Hook citizens showed their patriotism almost to a man, and tastefully decorated their places of business and homes with the national colors, making most pleasing effect.
 Down at the Academy huge archway had been erected at the entrance of the grounds, covered with the stars and bars, and displayed on it's front in large letters was the word "Welcome." The platform for the speakers was erected in front of the Academy building and was lavishly decorated with flags and bunting as was also the building. Arranged in front of the speakers platform was the organ and chairs for the chorus and under the trees were seats arranged for the people.
 The Danbury band, which with the aid of St Roses drum corps, furnished the music for the day, arrived about o'clock and headed by Marshal w. B Snifien marched to Newrown Street tC bring down the parade, which consisted of delegation of the Knights of Colum bus and about 30 school children.

 The last speaker on the program was his excellency, Gov LuZon B. Morris, who was greeted with applause as he ad vanced to speak. He opened with the remark that he was always pleased to visit his native town, but on this occa- sion he said he was doubly reioiced. The line of my profession, said the governor, has not been along the line of preaching, but feel like calling your attention to the condition of things which existed at | the formation of our government. The whole country was then school of econ omy, all bent on studying to see which | was the best form of government to adopt. After more than 100 years it is | we'll to take a review of the situation to | see ii the people have the same love for government our forefathers had.

Have we not, unfortunately, too many who are looking to the government for SUD- port. Their duty is to support the gov ernment, and not the government SUD- i port them. The governor advanced the | proposition that people from foreign i Hines, attracted to our shores by the
 love of liberty, coming here with de- sire to become good citizens, made as
 valuable citizens as did our ancestors. But those who come here with base mo-
 ives, introducing principles foreign to
 our laws, are dangerous class. To me
 the question of education is of greates t imp ,rtance. I want to instill into you
 miuds the importance of studying the prir ciples of government as our fore fathers studied it. You cannot have a
 harmonious republic, if you do not have legislation that is favorable to all. ! ou
 cannot have sectional legislation. In closing the governor asked the question

Oh the Glorious Fourth of July!
 And it was a glorious day, this year, from a Newtown standpoint. The early riser who got up to make just little noise before breakfast was greeted with one of the most lovely of summer mOrn- ings. Sparkling dew drops shone on the meadow lily and the waving grass, while along the horizon, where the sun was shortly to make it's appearance, hung a bank of fleecy clouds, which quickly dis persed at it's coming. All day long a most refreshing breeze came from the west, making comfortable what would otherwise have been an extremely hot day and blowing up the seemingly nee essary Fourth of July shower.
 The night of the Sd was a surprise, for every one expected the bad boy to break into the churches and ring the bells, and all night long keep up an incessant din. He must have been sick or out of town, or reformed, for quiet reigned supreme until the church bells broke the stiffness by their chime upon the air at sunrise. This seemed to be the summons to begin operations, for soon the pistol and crack CT were at work and about o'clock the old cannon at the depot poured forth its salute.

AN IMPORTANT SUIT,

A press dispatch sent out from Brat
tleboro on Saturday says: A big fight
between the Grand Trunk and the Cen
tral Vermont railroad, involving the con-
troll of the latter road, has been begun
by suit entered in the l.. 5. circuit
here by Hon. a. a. Strout aud :. G..
Shurtleff, counsel for the Grand Trunk.
Ju ulge Wheeler has issued restraining
order and set the case for Tuesday.
At the annual meeting of the Central
vermont in January II was voted to issue
an additional 81 100000 of capital stock,
and the bill alleges that it is the purpose
to give this stock as bonus to persons
purchasing bonds of the Central Ver-
mont TO be issued to pay the floating
debt. The Grand Trunk, which is a
large stakeholder in the Central Yer
mont, protested against the new issue of
stock and voted against it, and the bill
alleges that the obligations of traffic
contracts between the roads are impair
ed, and the proposed issue of stock is in
other respects illegal. The result of the
case involves the control of the road.
