Tin: CO-.‘H'EN'l‘lON.-‘.0111’ friends at the East are
making preparations on a large scale for the accom-
modation of delegates to the Young Men's Conven-
tion. Ittforination has been sent from New Haven,
that those who go to the Convention from this way,
will be dtily provided for by private hospitality,
thereby preventing any expense to the delegates.-
The plan is to reach New Haven the evening of the
21st, spend the night in that place, and take the cars
for Hartford in the morning. 0 their arrival at
New Haven the delegates should report themselves
at the Whig Committee room. The fare to Hart-
ford,’ on the rail road, has been reduced to 62 1-2
cents, or $1 25 for the two passages, tip and down.
_Bgt these terms are on condition that the tickets
shall be procured at the OITXCC. If the passenger
takes his seat before paying, he will be charged full
price.
‘Take particular notice, that the- tickets will be
good in the steamboat train from New Haven on
the 21st, and in the 8 1-2 o’clock, A. M. train on the
fZ2d—also in ‘the steamboat train of the same day.-
R,l-:'l'URNlNG—-Ille passengers may take the 5 ofclock
P. M. train of the 23d—and in the event ofthe‘Coii-
' veiition being continued to the 23d itist, then the
tickets will be received in the 5 o'clock, I’. M. train

The occasion, there is every reason to believe
‘will be one of the highest intcrcst-glorions—'-rc-
refreshing. Our friends in this part of the State
tnlust not allow theineelves to forgo the crtjoymcnt
of it. -Remember, there is also a flag at stake for
the town that turns out the largest number accord-
ing to its population. Shall not a push be made for
it in the towns of this vicinity 1 '

impede his progress, to no effect. He was
carried into the water. and at a depth too, be-
yond his reach. The fate of the little fellow
seemed inevitable. He sank and rose, and no
help appeared. The first thought which oc-
curredito his companions, was to throw him a
sled. belonging to one of the nutnber, that he
‘lynight grasp it, and by their holdingtlie string.
Lipe might be drawn out upon the solid ice. The
. application for the sled, however. was refused.
At this crisis. a son of Stiles Curtis started
ashore for a,ra.il from the fence. This, how-

that the Mutual Safety had gone by to Bridge

Mn. Enrron :—I had the pleasure of attend-
ing the dedication of the New Methodist Epis-
copal Church in your town on Wednesday last.
There were two services. at each of which there
was a full attendance. The _exercises were
app-opriaie and interesting. The sermons by
Rev. James Floy of Danbury, were highly
creditable to himself as an able minister of the
New 'I‘e_sta_tnent, and were listened to with deep
attentionand religious satisfaction. The col-
lections and subscriptions amounted. I under-
stand. to about $700, which I am informed by
those who know. was considering all the cir-
cumstances. most liberal and praise worthy.
The Church is a substantial, plain and ele-
gant bullding, and though not large, yet sulfi-
ciently so for all the purposes for which it is
built. Take it all in all, it is as perfect a mod-
el for a church edifice, as any that I have seen.
It speaks well for the architectural skillofthe
builder, Mr. Wm. T. Craw. for the good taste
of the building committee-, and the generous
zeal of the society and community in causing
such ,a house of worship to be erected. It is a
most desirable accommodation to the Methodist
society. and a public improvement in the place.
Vicll may the Methodists of Norwalk raise
their. Ebenezer and greatfully exclaim, hitherto

expected manifesto of John C. Calhoun has made
its appearance, and the bold nullifier has defined
his position with regard to the Baltimore Conven-
tion. He condcmnsitin to-to, the manner in which
it is constituted, and peremptorily refused to be con-
sidered a candidate before that body. He does not
however say that he will not allow himself to be con-
sidered a candidate in any manner or shape, so that
we are yet to see which way the cat is to jump.

The Committee requested and empowered by the

November last, to call a Convention of the \_’Vhig
Young Men ot'Connccticut, to meet in the city of
Hartford, regarding the 22d day of February as fit
in point of time, and sacred as that on‘which was
born the Father of his count1'y—lie who was “first
in war, first in peace, and first iii the hearts of his

the assembling of the Young Men's \Vhig Con-
vention. .

lowed by such associations, it is peculiarly suitable
for the VVltig Young Men of Connecticitt to meet
in Convention. in order to concert measures for
upholding good government and for elevating to
high office that patriot and statesman, whom of
living men, they believe to be "first in the hearts of
his cotiiitrytnen.”
