The result of the election of this town was
woriliy ofher. \Ve congratulate and commend
our Vl-’hig friends for their nobl_e and devoted
efibrts, They have had to contend with not
only their common enemy, locofocoism. but
with the most deterniiiietftiie in the shape of
abolition. with all its sanctimony and selfright-
teoiisness. But we have handsomely trlumph~

\Viltottl.——Tl'iis town, for which we have
‘felt so much yearning, has done well. She
has done well, inasmuch as she has so far
concentrated her strertgth as to elect by a fair

’ majority, an" unflinching whig, and a clever

fellow , to represent her in the State legislature.
‘Over this result, we feel a peculiar comfort.
New Cilnaall.-—Sl1e haszno doubt struggled

' Tllake ..\Vay for Staiiifortl--slie has
«done. her duty tnost galliinily. Her vote is the
greatest ever pol|ed—-617 for Governrir-—-and ti
-majority of7l! Give us your hand, sister—May
you.r shadow never be less.

 But we can particularize no farther.
Senator.-—Jun'ge Bissell is elected to the

,, Selhate by a majority of 2-153 and over. He is
worthy of it all, and much more. He willl not
gudisappoint. the confidence of his friends, but will

.do-honor to his (lis".!lC‘l.

 

The following compose all the rcttirns re-
aceived. \Ve are compelled to huddle them
-together in iuucli haste, and in the midst of so
«many eager and multifarious enquiries from our
_-friends, that we can hardly inzl-ze a rough guess
 -upon which end we are standing. From what
xwecan ga‘-her, the \Vliigs have gixeu their

_. Fbelieve it safe. if our friends at the East
.have done as inucb asthey gave us reason to
expect from them. The loco Senator ofthe llth
-district is elected. Ofthe fate ofour Congress-
.uian M r. Osborne, we are not certain. but in-
dulge a strong hope of his success. \Vc shall

The towns thus far licard from in that county show
a falling off of the whig vote.

_______._______.

THE Fm~;siir;'r of the 28th tilt. was one of
unusual destructiveness in this vicinity. The
water in the river that empties in this place,
rose to a height never before equalled. It
reached an elevation of three feet twp or three
inches above. the mcmortihlc frcshet two years
ago, filling the basement‘ storicsofthe buildings

their ceilings. One barn. a large foundry house
and several Colleges ware entirely raised and
destroyed. Two or three other buildings were
moved from their foundations. but were saved
by lashing. A bl.'.icksniith shop was keelcd up
on the roof, and a shop belonging to the car-
peuiering establishment of Drown & Ferguson
was carried to the "llcittlly oftlie darn. where it
became ciitangleil in the trees, and was left but-
lUt]'l tip. Other buildings in siniilrir locations
were injured considerably. The Norwalk
Mills sustained consitlcr.-sble damage in the loss
of wheels, siding and iiljiiriiig of other property.
Most oftlic supports of the bridge were swept
away, and the cellar ofthc store occupied by
Jol n S. Sainniis,v;as completely gutted, loosing
its foundation, and the occupant about $150
worth ofproperty. The current worked through
the dock belonging to Col. B. Lockwood, and
others, a part of wlzicli was carried oil and
ill-posited considerable. distance down the harbor
—-“ind gullying otit a hole under the store next
Pennoycr & Mcrrills. and lictwecn that and the
one occupied by \V. \V. Burritt. some 30 or
-10 feet in tliamcter} The (lt)('l\' adjoining our
offir:e,known as lioyt’s Dock, wasin partswcpt
offand the cmbanktnent also washed away for
some 20hr 30 feet.

Had it not been for active exertions and the
subsitling ofthc waters at the time they did, the
-1 buildings on the win: end of the Bridge must.
have stiff-zred in:-in-rially, as the water began
to work a passage across the road on the \Vest
ofthe buildings in question, and entirely stir-
rounding them. Such was the apprehension,
that the goods in G run1au’s store. were all re-
moved, and we maile a beginniiig in removing
otir nlficc. I-]ubbell's dock occupied with plas-
_tcr on the east side of the harbor was half demol-
ished. and the plaster prrcipiiatctl into the creek.
Several oftlie builtliri-_gs destroyed and injurerl
above the (lam. belonged to Hultbell 56 Co.,
whose loss is estimated at a SL000.

We have heard of several dams and bridges
on the streams above, and also of the bridge
crossing the turnpike at Stamford, and also of
others at the east, but our information is not
definite enough to particularizc. The Bridge-
port Bridge sustained some injury. and we
bear buildings were swept completely away,
but we shall wait to hear brother Pettiugill’s
story of the disasters in that quarter.

The Rail Road, which was at.first reported
to have suffered materially, turns out to be a
mere rumor. So far as we can hear, the freslie:
was about as severe here. as at any other point.

 

ACCIDENTS BY 'rur‘. -FR}-zsnr-:'r.—At Greeti-
field Hill, Hahn-..h. wife of Samuel Meeker of-
this place,lost her life by having been accidental-
ly percipitated into a swollen stream. She was
lodged on the bank of the stream before life
was extinct. Medical aid was immediately
obtained, but her bruises and injuries were of
such a nature that she died in a few minutes..

An Irish woman fell into the river» at the
head ofthe mill pond, in this\place, on \Vednes-
day morning, while lading water. and was car-
ried rapidly down the stream for a considerable
distance, but was rescued by a Mr. Ambler.
who rushed in and drew her from her perilous
situation.

On the same day a boy who was playing in
a temporary affair-—which served the purpose
of a boat, also at the head of the pond, was car-
ried into the stream and his frail shallop dashed
to pieces against a rock in the middle of the
river. Here. he fortunately gained a foot hold
upon the rock, where a rope was thrown to‘
him, which be fastened about his body and
was thus drawn safely to term firma.

We regret. the necessity which compelled us
to omit the communication of“B.” last week.
But it was our last week before election and
political matter supercedcd every thing else.-
\Ve should have given it a place in this num-
ber but for its being out of season. \Ve should
like to hear from the author again, on similar,
or any other subjects, which he may be able to

lt‘im«:.—Abont half past 9o‘clock on the eve-‘
ning of the 28th ult.. a fire, made its appearance
in the upper. part of‘lie huiltling belonging to
the‘ estate of D. S.- Bartram. l'roniin;_v the West
end ofthe britlge,-and occtipietl below h_y’HtrtItt't
Durand as a shoe storc—by James i\‘.lllCll€lVl, as
a market, and 'oy Jarucs A. Davenport as a
grocery, and by i‘{,t,illl£‘l'fUt‘llt, as a ,'J?.llnl
shop, above. The engine companies. with the
exception of the ‘*.Silt.'-cr Grays," were speedily
on the spot, and there being an abundance of
water. it was soon extiitgtiislietl.destroying the
roof, apart of the secoritl'story,and doing some
damage below.

The building was insured in the Hartfilrd
Protection Company, to the amount of $500,
which \\ill cover the loss.

Nothing in the voloniinr-us_testimony that has
been taken in this lllOll"8t.‘Tf."(.l case tends to fix
suspicion of guilt upon any pcrsrxii, and the
affair rorriains envelt poll in its original tiiystcry.
The fact that a man rriayrbe shot in the open
street at only a few steps from the most crowd-
ed ilioronghfare in the city, at an hour when
the streets are so gcrierally tlirongetl ,and the
murderer escape even a suspicion of having
done lhe dred. is somewlzat alarming.
