Every one who sends milk to New York knows that at this season of the year, there is an excessive supply of milk in market i; and that this surplus proves not only al- most total loss to the farmer, but serves to depress the price of all the milk that is sold. What to do with this surplus milk that it may be saved and not break down the market is the question? have been in the habit of keeping share at home and setting it in pans in the old fashioned way and making butter. Last year, I adopted a new practice, very satisfactori- ly, as follows: We set all the milk in cans and coolers, in the spring; and, ,daily, when we send to New York, we take out the rest and let it stand in the milk house till the cream has, more or less, risen. This skinned milk we use for feeding calves or poultry, or we even make cheese. It will keep sweet thus cooled for some days, even out of the water, and is carried to the dairy when we get enough to make o11ccro. -------

 The result is, we get nearly as much cream as in the old way Gin the warm weather more), make very nice butter, very good skim cheese, and have compar- atively little trouble with the work. Our June butter, last year, was perfectly good in November, as long as it lasted, and we are now making supply for the year.

The soldiers monument was erected, and upon it pretended to be inscribed tine soldier dead of this town. Yet from some cause hardly pardonable in such matter, the of the first soldier from this town who was killed in battle does not appear among

 We believe that the committee having the matter ill charge took great care to perfect their lists, in the first place; and then published request for all interest ed to examine it and make corrections.

 Moreover, although we think Lieut.. Dutton's name should have appeared on our Roll of Honor, we are not so certain as thes Sentinel seems to be that he twas enlisted from and counted on the quota of Litchfield." Mir. Cothren claims him for Woodbury:

 "obedient to the call of patriotic duty he closed his oftce and business, came to Woodbury, and cast in hls lot with the woodbury boys, resided here for received the only bounty with which the first volun- teers were furnished red flannel shirts, Havelocks, ana necessary articles for soldier in camp, and marched from here Orderly Sergeant, the town receiving the credit of his enlistment and the fame of death at Cedar MOul tain He chose to unite his military destiny and fame with theWoodbury Boys, and the History of Wood bury will not forget to mention his name with honor"

 The Colt" regiment in which he en- listed was finally disbanded, and most of its members enlisted into the Fifth Conn. in which, Mir. Dutton was commissioned as 2d Lieut.. of Go. c, and New Haven IS gwen as hls place of residence in the official catalogue issued by the Adjutant Gen. of this state in 1864.

 Lieut.. Dutton was living here at the opening of the war. His name was given to the first camp of the old Nineteenth Regt. on Chestnut Hill, ana we think Litchfield is entitled to the credit of his gallant record. Still we can easily under stand how his name might have been omitted from inadvertence, or how the committee, consulting the official record, might have supposed that they would not be justified in inscribing it on our monu- ment. -.-

pathos Of his voice, quivcring with
suppressed emotion, was indescriba-
BILE. Before his prayer was coaclud-
ed, the enthusiastic Morton felt that
he could follow such leader to the
worlds end.


He repeated his text: "Behold,
the day cometh," and launched a,
once into strongly impressive in
PRODUCTION about the sll-pervading
presence Of God, until the whole
house seemed full Of God, and Nor
ton found himself breathing fearfully
with q sense of Gods presence and
ineffable holiness. Then he took up
that never.failing theme of the pion-
eer preacher-the sinfulness Of sin
and there were suppressed cries of
anguish over the whole house. Nor
ton could hardly feel more contemp.
for himself than he had felt for two
days past, but when the preacher
advanced to his climax of the atone
ment and the forgiveness Of sins,
Goodwin felt himself carried away
as with food. In that hour, with
God around, above, beneath, without
and within, with . feeling that since
his escape he held his life by sort
Of repr.eve--with the inspiring and
persuasive accents Of this weird
prophet ringing in his ears, he cast
behind him all human loves, all am
bilious purposes, all recollections Of
theological puzzles, and set himself
to . self-denying life. With one final
battle he closed his conflict about
Patty. He would do right at all
hazards.


Morton never had other conversion
than this. He could not tell of such
. struggle as Hikes. AL he knew
was that there had been conflict.
When once he decided, there was
harmony and peace. When Valcn-.
tine Cook had concluded his rspt
peroration, setting the whole house
ablaze with feeling, and then pro-
ceeded to ssopen the doors Of the
church" by singing


"Am . soldier Of the cross.


A follower OF the Lamb.


And shall fear to own his cause


Or blush to speak his name."
it was with sort of military exalta-
tion-a defiance Of the world, the
flesh and the devil-that Morton
went forward and took the hand of
the preacher, as q sign that he SOL
emnly enrolled himself among those
who meant to


conquer though they die."


He was accustomed to say in after
years, using the Methodist phrase
ology, that "God spoke peace TO his
soul the moment he made up his
mind 10 give up all" That God does
speak to the heart Of man in its great
crises cannot doubt; but God works
with, and not against, the laws Of
mind. When Morton ceased to con-
tend with his highest impulses there
was no more discord, and he was of
too healthful and objective a tenn
permanent to have subjective fights
with fanciful Apollyons. When
peace came he accepted it. One Of
the old brethren who crowded round
him that night and questioned him
shout his experience was 'safeard it
warn't rale deep conversion. They
wuzn't wras'lin' and strugglin'
enough" But the wise Valentine
Cook said, when he took Morton's
hand to say hood bye, and looked in
to his clear, blue eye, sHold fast the
beginning Of thy confidence, broth

cannot afford to be idle spectators OF
the sacrifice Of all that Emancipation
achieved, nor will they be. As they rose
up against border ruf1ianism in Kansas, SC
they will spring up against the same
villainous spirit now manifesting itsell
against the colored people of the South
There is loud call in the attitude of the
old slave masters in the South towards the
negroes, for the old guard of the republi-
can party to buckle on their armor again
and 90 forth earnestly and seriously into
the political conflicts impending. There
must be no letting down of republican
maiorities. Maine must speak for JUS
tice, for civil and political equality for
the negro, as she spoke for right and
freedom when Kansas was saved from
the doom of slavery. The republican par.
tv will not have fulfilled the mission its
oricinators marked out until the rights
of the colored men are fully secured
There is good cause why every re
publican should be active. The 14th ol
September is close at hand. What VIC
do we must be done quickly. And what
we should do is to roll up vote that
the madmen of the South enlisted in the
war against the blacks will understand

founded on color exclusively for the
overthrow of the rights secured to the
negro race.

The outbreaks occurring in the South are
more important for what they indicate
than for the local results attending them.
Murders and mobs occurring here and
there in the northern States create no par
ticular concern outside of the localities in
which they happen. They are not caused
by any wide-reaching influence, but are
the effect of momentary passion or short
lived dissatisfaction affecting but small
circle of individuals. But in the South
the case is very different. There the out
RACES committed have similar origin and
purpose. They spring from hatred of the
whites to the blacks, and their intent is the
crowding down of the colored people as
near the plane of slavery as possible.
The difficulty is general and deep. What
we witness at Charleston to-day, or saw at
Vicksburg or Austin but few days ago,
are the results of causes at work all over
the South, wherever black and white are
found In the same communities.


The recen: action of democratic conven-
tons in some Of the southern States in
putting into their platforms the race issue,
the union of the whites against the blacks,
is fact of weighty import, step of ter
rible responsibility, before which the dis
orders that have occurred thus far are of
but small consequence. kn-Kuxism as
an isolated, Independent organization was
bad enough, but adopted openly into dem
ocratic platforms, as it is when the race
issue is engrafted upon them, its power
for wickedness is increased immensely.
The horrors that may come from such a
course are fearful to think of. If riots
and murders multiply in the South let
those who are pushing the negro to ex-
tremity because OF his politics look to it
and prepare to answer for their part in the
matter.


There has been no election held in the
South this season without disturbance be-
tween whites and blacks. The fault in all
such eases is invariably attributed by
the democratic sources of intelligence
through which we learn them to the blood
thirsty negroes but, wonderful to relate,
the poor negros are always the greatest
sufferers in the encounters which they are
accused of bringing on! The innocent
whites who are marked for butchery turn
out TO be the butchers! A hundred negroes
are shot down in a riot and not a white
man killed, but word is sent abroad that
the negroes were entirely TO blame, and
went into the fray well armed while the
whites were without arms and as peacea-
BILE as lambs This is mockery Of the
worst kind. 1t may have deceived in
times past but can deceive no longer.
The outrages committed upon the negroes
of the South will never be known A few
detached facts oil the great mass come to
our knowledge from which we are left to
infer the reality. If the true story of only
the recent elections could be told we i'm
agine it would move the North with a
mightier impulse than that which swayed
1t at the period of the Kansas Nebraska
outrages.


The republicans OF the North have
hoped to see the races in the South living
together in amity, with no distinctions in

TRIAL. OF AN ILLEGAL voTER-HELD FOR


COURT.


Before Mayor Simms, this morning,
George Bundy, COL, was tried on a
charge of voting Illegally in the Ninth
Ward, during the election, yesterday.
The charge was preferred by Martin
Farrell, who testified to seeing the man
vote in the Ninth Ward. Other wit
nesses proved that Bundy resided in the
Eighth Ward, and that he voted in the
Ninth Ward because he was told to do
so. The accused was held to bail in
the sum of $500, to answer the charge
at the next term of Court.


The other negroes, who were arrested
yesterday afternoon are still confined
in the City Hall cells. They will be
given hearing this evening. One of
them who gave his name as Joseph Tad
and tried to vote in the Tenth Ward on
this name was visited by friend, this
morning who addressed him as "Joe
Stokely," which the prisoner admitted
was his right name.


The prisoners are all penitent and
deeply regret the blind obedience to
the Ring-mastcrs, which brought them
into such trouble. 1t is severe lesson
but it will have salutary effect upon
them.
