Goddard on Connecticut.

In his address at the Rockville Bus mess Mems banquet Thursday night, Rev. John Calvin Goddard, of Sails bury, as usual said a lot of bright things, on the subject, Tomorrow in New Connecticut. " Among other things he said:
 ''I am glad to leave my few sheep in the wilderness, and come down here to this wealthy metropolis, city of rocks. , You seem to make everything ill Rock vile, from the clothes that enclose the man to the envelope that encloses the bill. I was told once that you have here Prohibition Hill with an Angel on top of it, significant, suppose, of the truth, that when prohibition comes to be fact, we shall all have wings.
 We live in an age when there is left only handful of corn in the top of the mountains, and they of the city, &C., cording to the psalmist, shall flourish like the grass of the earth. The cities of Connecticut have been developing so fast at the expense of the hill towns that the impression is general that organism, barbarism, pauperism, and some other ills that end in ism are inn pending.
 It is possible that some of the towns in old Holland are feeling blue after the census; if so, I wish to paint them red. Ninety-four of our Connecticut towns are below thelr former maximum. Some of them remind one of what Artemus Ward said of his friend, "He had been dead two years and liked it. '
 "The small town has bright tomor- row because of its rustic worth. Now and then something is said about the abandoned farms of Connecticut, but when you look for them, it is discov- cred that they are like Goldsmith's De- serted Village, not on the map. The impression that our farming is declin- ing is wrong. While grain crops are diminishing, the loss is more than made good by garden, orchard and dairy. There are million people still living on farms in New England.
 "It is an inspiring fact that little Connecticut has l,200 lakes, and 1000 miles of brooks that picker down the valley. There are other ways of estimating a town aside from its popu- lation and grand list. '
