GOOD OLD NEWS
Cleaned from the Housatonic Repubi-
 can of 55 Years Ago.

The Falls Village "Housatonic Re- publican, of August 20, 1859, con- tained the following, from North Ca naan:
 ''It is now expected that the Rev. MT. Eddy will soon leave his charge ill this place for the west. We hope not, as his departure might be the signal for the same religious warfare and ultimate division, as has been experi- enced in the good old mother town. Although we sympathize with the Cor ner people, yet we hardly think they are prepared to stand alone, but if they should divide some day, we would ad- wise them to take warning and hire d pastor, to start with, for more than one year. !"
 Local News: "We learn that the son of Mir. Isaac Kellogg, who was run over by hay team last week, is doing as well as could be expected, his internal injuries do not prove as serious as was at first feared they would ''
 1.-The Dunn boy, bitten last week by a rattlesnake, on Canaan Mountain, we learn, is in fair way to recover, but as it is feared, with crippled leg" ..
 The following items appeared under the heading, "Housatonic Railroad:
 "We are informed that last Satur- day mail train on this road run over an OK on the track below Cornwall Bridge, and injured it so that it had to be killed. .....
 "There has appeared on this road lately long handsome car, supposed to have been made more expressly to run ill the winter, when one car will be needed; if so, travellers will find it a decided improvement.
 "This road is considered to be one of the best conducted roads in New Eng land, and subject to the fewest acci- dents. Apropos-One of the pass en ger cars on an up train, last week, was found to be afire on the roof, and the train was stopped, but the fire was easily extinguished. We are led to suppose it must have been one of those old settlers sometimes seen on extra occasions. If so, we would suggest that the sooner it is used for kindling wood, the better, but let it be for other purposes than roasting passengers.

A Fish Story.

The Waterbury American is responsi ble for this:
 "A native of Windham, Vt., had a trout brook on his property which he posted, prohibiting anyone to fish there. He was informed that by law he had no right to make such prohibition as he did not stock the brook. In wrath he went to the other extreme and posted it with this sign: Fish and be dam. Worms back of barn and boy to help dig The authorities were mad at the insult and prosecuted him for pro- fanity. But we believe the court de- cided that his poor spelling saved him from the commission of the sin of being profane.
 It is nice little story, but wobbly on its legal legs. The farmer had a perfect and unquestioned right to post the stream in realty, and in law. Much as "sportsmen" would like to believe it there is no such thing as the privilege of trespass on land of another. The landowner is supreme and can keep everybody off his premises, whether the state has stocked his brooks or not.-Bristol Press.
