SOME EXCITING TIMES
 IN THE WAR OF 1872.
Paper Found in Florida Tells of Fight
 in New London Harbor.

While Walter R. Denison of Groton was in Florida this winter one Of his friends rescued a lie of The National Advocate from June i, 1913, to March 2, 1914, from a negro who was cleaning out the rubbish in an old house, and turned the papers over to him. The item was IS follows:
 New London, Dec. l. 1Sl3.-Eariy on Sunday morning last the sloop Rox- anna from New York for Providence with a cargo consisting of flour and pot and pearl ashes, was chased on shore by three British barges a little west of the salt works. A few in- habitants assembled and from the ad- jacent fails so annoyed the marauders that they abandoned the vessel as soon as they could set fire to her, without taking away a single article. Two men were lifted from the Sloop into one of the boats, supposed to be wounded The master and hands of the sloop got safely to land.
 The cannonading from the ships to prevent the fire from being exJ1nguish- ed brought on the spot a great num- Der of people A detachment marched from Fort Trumbull and a part of ar tillery with a field piece from town. Two launches, crowded with men from the Vaiieut, covered by the station frigate and sloop Cervor, attempted to board the sIoOp for plunder. They, however, no sooner came within reach Of the musketry than a single dis charge from shore induced them to take a most respectable distance where they lay on their oars until a few well directed shots from the field piece de- cided them to give up the enterprise.
 The sloop and cargo are principal ly destroyed, the latter said to be by the English. It is remarkable that notwithstanding more than 20 broad sides were fired from the ships, and a number of guns from the land within two-thirds of a sunshot where there were more than 200 persons, a great part of whom were exposed constant ly, not an individual was injured.
 Half a bushel of balls weighing from nine to g pounds were picked up during the cannonading. The wind was light, the ships had every sail set Id manoeuvred in excellent style. but fne firing was execrable. General Bur beck. Commander Decatur and Captain Jones were present. It is said one ball came very near Commander Decatur.
 This affair may be properly distin- guished as a British attack on Rogers farm, and a drawn battle, the blowing StaGkpole gave to Rogers land is a fair offset for the holes made in his barn and crib A frigate, a sloop of war and a brig were at anchor in Gardi- ner's bay on Sunday"

Origin of Hot Cross Buns.

The origin of hot cross buns is not apparent but there is an old supersti- ton concerning them which is eX- pressed in the following verse from Poor Robins Almanacll, 1733. and will be of interest to all users of those Good Friday aCcompaniments: Good Friday comes this month, the
 old woman runs With one-or two-penny hot cross
 buns,
 Whose virtue is. if you believe what's
 said,
 They'n rot grow mouldy like the com
 mon bread"
 It is also an old belief that the ob- servance of the custom of eating Duns on Good Friday protects the house from fire, and several other virtues are attributed to them. One writer, Will liam Howe, speaks of a time when pastry cooks and bakers Vied with each other for excellence in making hot cross buns: the demand has de- crea sed, and so has the quality of the buns.''

The watchmakers will do land office business this month, as the rail- road company has given orders to all it's employees that they must have a watc hIisted on their bulletin by April blue card of inspection from one of the jewellers in the big cities. This will come hard on a large number of the station baggsgemasters, lampmen and other minor officeholders that are re- cetving S9 or S10 a week to pay out S25 or $50 to hold down their jobs. There is a general kick among con- ductors and engineers who have flrst class. expensive watches. but do not come under list of movements. The en- gineers and conductors have to report twice a month for inspection of their timepieCes. Some will have to lose time for this trip and they are anxious to learn if they will receive their days pay while on this trip.
