HOLLAND. (COrreSDOndenCe.l

Miss Christine Essex, of Boston, was home over Sunday.
 Miss May Weeks, of Hartford, is spend ing several weeks with her grandmother, Mrs. Sarah Ladd.
 Wm. L. Benton and wife, recently of Willimantic, were in town over Sunday. They are soon to remove to Torrington, where Mir. Benton has a good position.
 Burglars entered the Savings Bank of Holland on Monday night by prying open a side window. They drilled holes in the outside door of the vault, and put in dyn- amite, and thus broke off parts of the door and the rivets which fastened the parts together, but no entrance was made to the safe within the vault. They obtained the tools from L. B. Price's blacksmith shop, where they forced an entrance. They also went to J. P. Roots store and opened window near the safe, drilled hole in the safe, and loaded it, but Eli Ryder, who lives above the store,- heard the disturbance, and called out, but they told him to keep still or they would kill him. He then called out again, and they ran away towards the south. By this time several around the Street were wakened by the noise of the explosion, and MT. Ryder's calls, and followed th' m, tracking them as far as the house of Ran dolph Benton, mile south of the Street. The first reports of the explosions were heard about o'clock, but were thought to be of no importance, and so little attention was paid o them. They were discoveredin Roots store about o'clock. In the store they had billed quantity of canned goods together, as if they intended to carry them with them. There were at least two men of them, and and it is thought that there were one or more palls about the Street. Evidently before they began operations they had entered Syl- vester Ryder's barn, at the north end of the Street, and had taken his horse out of the barn, but not finding the harness readily they left the horse just outside of the barn. There is no direct clue to the burglars, but suspicious rests upon two men who were noticed around the Street Monday afternoon. They did not curry away any plunder, but left things in snch shape that it will take some time to fix things as they were, especially at the Bank. FLORA.

Who true to the Savior remained during life. Just over the side, with two pews full of boys, Were the Threshers, with wonderful poise; They reared all these small men, em-bg-o, So that some now are noted all over Ohio. The Taylors and Blodgetts full well recall; The Smiths and the Aldens, to write of them all Would weary your patience, so fOrbear, Although in fond memory they each have share. The last will mention, though not least in mind, Is the dear faithful pastor, both gentle and kind Full well remember when, with his right hand, He gave me glad welcome to your trusting band: Of all the loved people whose names have told, How many are sheltered in the great upper-fOld !? Where wolf may not enter, nor any such thing, When all dwell serenely with Jesus, our King. Now, if among you, who have gathered to-day, There are some who recall her, who pens this
 poor lay,
 To you extend 8 warm clasp of the hand The remnant that left of the -hOnored band. May God bless you all, though strange are your
 faces;
 For you, He hath called to fill up the places Of those, who departing, left His banner unfurl- ed.
 Which, if we keep floating, will conquer the
 world.
