EXTENSIVE FIRE IN DARIEN,
$20,000 Dollars worth of property de-
stroyed. '
That portion of Darien known as “ Ring?!
End Landing,” was almost entirely consumed
by fire on Friday night last. It embraced the
principal, mercantile and business locality of
the town and consisted of wooden buildings
closely compacted, and connected by houses
and lumber sheds, so as to ensure the destruc-
tion of the entire settlement. The fire is sup-
to have had its origin in a rum carou-
nal. The loss is variously estimated at from
‘fifteen to twenty thousand dollars, only a
small portion of which,we learn is covered
by insurance, and must fall with stunning ef-
fect upon the business enterprise- of that town.
The particulars are thus detailed by our Da-
rlenflorrespondent :
The fire broke out in a shed belonging to
Sands Seely of Stamford and occupied by
Captain Hill ,about_ 10 o’clock, and extended
-'to.the'adjoining buildings until the whole of
_the_.buildiugs from Henry Gorham’s House to
the Bridge, were wholy destroyed. The loss-
-er.-ai-eas follows:
Sands Seely of Stamford, one Store and
h ,ds. ,. .
J?'0lIll? Waterbury, three Stores, stock of
goods and Lumber. I
. Chas. Webb, Store and stock of goods, and
Sheds adjoining. _ .
Henry Gotham, Store and Grist Mill.
. Horace W. Avery, Store.
Wm. P. Reeve, Household Furniture.
, fit Should not this destruction of property
prove a warning to our merchants and busi-
ness men, who seem to rest so securely, al-
though the Norwalk Bridge and its vicinity,
are even more hazardously exposed than was
Darien Landing, for we have not a single
engine. capabletof throwing a stream of water.
should a fire break out. We are assured by
‘competent persons that it would take at least
two hours under the most favorable circum-
stances, before "either Engine could be made
to work, and is it best that these two hours’
‘work should be delayed until our property is
in flames? We are at a loss to compre-
head the utter want of anxiety and action
on the part of our business men, in particular,
upon this subject. They are cautious men in
.otl_i'er particulars, but in the matter of provi-
ding any security against fire, their inaction
amounts to total indifference. It is well
known to them that all property about Nor-
wait Bridge is classified by the Insurance
Companies as “extra hazardous,” and they
are uncomplaningly paying from year to year»
in extra rates of insurance more than four-
fold what their rate of taxation would reach,
Ihouldthe Borough make an assessment for
two fii-st class Fire Engines. Who will move
in the’ matter, before he gets his own fingers
burnt ? ' _

_ I Burglary in Westport
97 -The Dry‘Goods Store of Messrs. Spang Jr
C~ray,‘wasentered on Friday night last, and
about one hundred dollars worth of goods ta-
-ken. It appears that the thieves before ef-
fecting their entrance to the store had broken
'into the dwelling of the Widow Gray, imme-
liately opposite, taking therefrom, however,
nothing but an ' old piece of Carpet and a
"Cloalr. The folds of the Cloak they overlaid
.Wi_t_li,1nud, and pressed upon one of the large
lights in the store window in such a manner
as ,-to effectually drown all noise from the
[broken glass, and thus having effected an
..entrauce, the old carpet was unrolled to
walk upon,so as to conceal all noise from that
_e_xel‘cise in their perambulations about the
.store_. '.The key to the shutter bolt was sim-
-'ply a wedged shape piece of iron. and so
loose that when the bolt was turned, it drop-
iped-out, so the wooden shutters were easily
‘withdrawn. Mr. Spaug was sleeping over the
store, yet so stealthily were their operations
carried out that no sound was heard by him_
,It.would seem, however, by the circumstan-
_ ces, that they must have been disturbed, and
4 ‘taken leave before they were quite ready, as
the money drawer, in which were some six or
eight dollars in change , had not been touched,
and several articles of goods were left lying
‘upon the counter. At about 1 o’clock A. M.
. Saturday, a man was seen hurriedly passing
. thetoll gate house, this side of the Southport
road,»aud,soon after another with a pack up”-
. on his back about as large as a man could
carry. A short distance beyond, two German
peddlers had cncamped on the roadside, and
hitched and fed their horses at the ends of
. their respective wagons, and while thus asleep
the best horse of the twain. was unhitched
A and stolen. These two robberies may be thus
‘» linked together or not, but beyond this no
traces have yet been found either of robbers,
goods or horse. Altogether it is a singular
affair.

The Darien Contested Election Case.
In the House, on Thursday, when ti18C0m-
mittee on Contested Elections reported on case
of Brown vs. Roberts, Mr. Peet hoped the re-
port would be laid on the table to allow him
time to prepare a minority report.
It was moved that the case be made the
special order of Tuesday next at 11 o'clock.
Mr. Roberts whose seat is contested, hoped
that the matter would be laid on the table
for consideration next Tuesday. He could
not attend to it before that time. He did not
cling to the seat, it was hard enough at best.
[Laughter.]
Mr. Treat of Bridgeport, thought that this
matter should not be laid over till Tuesday,
since the House could just as wen hear the
merits of the case discussed now, as then ;and
thus late in the session the matter should not
go at loose ends any longer.
Mr. Peet said that absolute and unqualified
engagements required his presence in anoth-
er place to-morrow. He hoped that this mat-
ter would all be placed before the Legislature
in a printed form because there were grave
and weighty constitutional questions involv-
ed. He had also been informed by Gov. Dut-
ton that some of the questions involved, had
been, years ago, passed upon and decided.-
He hoped that the question might be settled
on right and just principles. -
Mr. Hubbard said he was surprised at the
appeal of his friend to consider this case im-
iuediutely. The question involved right—it
involved questions of privclege. The facts
of the case had not been fixed in his mind f‘rom
the mere hearing of the report of the Com-
mittee ; and that they are of’ a very complex
nature he had no doubt. The member of the
Committee asks time to prepare a report in
the case and in fairness he ought to have it.-
The member whose seat is contested cannot
attend to the vindication of his rights to mor-
row. It was asked that the election of Bank
Commissioners be put over to Tuesday and
no objection was ruade. Let the same spirit
prevail in this case.
Mr. Treat said that the majority of the
Committee were not aware that the gentle-
man desired to make a minority report. As
for himself personally he had no desire to en-
ter upon the immediate consideration of’ the
case. and no objection to postponing the con-
sideration to Tuesday.
So the case was made the order of the day
for Tuesday next.
On motion of Mr. Graves, both the majori-
ty and the minority reports were ordered to
be printed.

Tnoss Cn1inasN.—Last Sunday after-
noon, three little bright-eyed boys, the
oldest not over eight years of age, were
engaged near the bridge in the cruel
sport of drowning a dog. They had
brought the poor animal from their home,
at the bidding of their mother, and drag-
ging him to the edge of the steep declivi-
ty in that place, pushed him over. The
poor animal had lost both eyes in a fight
with pussy, and was otherwise injured ;
instinct and strength were sufficient to
enabe him to gain the shore, but at a
point .where the steep rocks prevented
him from escape, and where he must ulti-
mately have perished from cold or starva-
tion. The howliugs of the poor thing were
pitiful, indeed, in return for which these
little monsters pelted him with a shower of
stones, until interferred with by some liii-
mane person, whose attention was attrac-
ted by its cries, and by a. speedy death,
put an end to its sufferings. Can it be
possible that a mother would send her
boys, mere children,--to perform such a
work as this? If so, does that mother
comprehend what an influence the com-
inissiou of such acts of cruelty may exert
upon the future of their lives, the founda-
tion of those characters her own hands
must build ? It is said of Benedict Ar-
nold, that when a. small child, he took es-
pecial delight in tormenting dumb ani-
mals. Mothers, learu your children to be
kind to these, and you will have laid
broad and deep, the great principle of
humanity——kindness.—St. Paul Times.
%‘ Parents are vastly more responsible
for thefuture lives of their children than
they are apt to suppose. How invariable is
the testimony in regard to every convicted
rnnrderer—-“ when a child he was very much
given to torturing dumb animals,” &c.~—and
how often is this course of life directly at-
tributable to parental action in the matter?
The lad is often -hired to drown ,or ofherwis:
destroy, an unwelcome nest of kittens, or
taught delight in the unnecessary torture of
some captured mouse or insect. Then comes
robbing bird’s nests of their eggs and young,
throwing stones or shooting arrows at every
feathered songster which may chance to fall
within his rounds of pleasure. Then a gun
is procured, and a general slaughter of all
animate things is commenced. Probably
more cruelty in disposition is allowed to be
acquired by the child in the country, in the
annoying and destruction of birds, than in
anything else. They are not only indulged
in it, but laugh.‘ it, by the repeated practices
of their parents and elders, until the feathery
songstcrs have so far deserted the haunts, of
man.as to leave his fruits and crops a. prey to
the myriad insects that infest the earth and
air. This need not be so, the bird is an ani-
mal of domestication, as much as the horse.-
It'will be rcmemberedin the beautiful lecture
of Prof. Dana,Winter before last, on Coral
Formations, his account of approaching the
birds on the Pacific Islands, and caressing
them with his hand, and jostling them about
without occasioning the least apparent exhi-
bition of fear, or even shyness. If the read-
el‘ will accompany us to a quiet home in
a retired portion of our own town, we will
show them the pleasing sight of at least a
dozen little birds, coming morning and even-
ing to eat crumbs which are thrown them by
tlze tlilhilldren, picking them up like chickens,
a t c ittle ones’ feet.

John. B. Gough.
In the weekly Journal of Glasgow. is a full
account of the unpleasant dimciilty between
J ouN B. Gonon, the celebrated temperance
lecturer, and one F. F. Lees,-of Lees. -It ap-
pears that this Lees has been a very bitter
opposer to illr. Gough on accoiiut of Gough’s
statcineiits in a private letter (not intended
for publication) to zi. friend, that he found
the Maine law in Massacliusetfs and other
places to bc_‘a dead letter; Lees being em-
ployed by the Alliance Society, and Gough
by the Temperance League, the latter soci-
ety having great faith in “ moral suasion,”
as an incentive to sobriety, whereas the for-
mer society is anxious to put the law in ac-
tion againstlovers of liquor, and make sober
men. by“ Maine” force. The public can see
at a glance the position of both P9-"fies-“
Gough has been most bitterly pursued and
charged with being “ intoxicated with narco-
tics,” “ of becoming inscnsible in the streets
of London,” “ of vomiting of matter with a
strong vegetable, appleish odor,” and “ of
his consumiiig tobacco by chewing,” and ma-
ny other iusinuations. These charges have
been circulated all about the "country, writ-
ten and printed, and it is understood have
been sent to America for publication. Mr.
Gough has brought a. suit for libel before
the Court of Queen’s Bench, before Lord
Campbell, Justice W'ighlman and Earle.-
Iii the remarks of Lord Campbell, after hear-
ing the case, he says,“ I have no doubt that
Mr. Gough is a most Tcspectablc gentleman,
and a sincere apostle of temperance, and that
he sets a good example of the precepts ‘that
he holds out.” Justice Earle, says, " I think
Mr. Gough has obtained a great part of his ob-
ject ; because, I take it, by a solemn denial
on oath, supported, as he is, by such strong
corroborative testimony, he will have cleared
his character, as to all persons whom his char-
acter is a matter of importance ; and it is to
be hoped that after this public denial his op-
ponent will take good care not to attack him
again. He however, by the advice of his
friends intends to prosecute the matt er fur-
ther in civil suits.

SuIcInE.—Henry William Herbert, known
as “ Frank Forrester,” an extensive contribu-
tor to the magazine literature of this country
committed suicide by shootinghimself through
the heart, at the Stevens’ House, Broadway,
N. Y., on Monday. He was an Englishman
by birth, and the son of a distinguished Dean
of the Church of England. Domestic troubles
is the cause assigned for his self-destruction.
A letter, addressed to the press was found up-
on his table, from which we extract the follow-
ing paragraph :
“If, as I presunie will be the case, my
earnest and hopeful appeal for repose
be disregarded, if tlievulturcs of the press
pounce on my cold remains, to tear,
through them, the lieart-strings of my
living 1'elativcs——-to blazou forth all my
misdeeds, in unblushing colors to the sun
—let none of my friends——-if I have a
friend—stand forth to defend inc. De-
fence only provokes bittcr attack and
gives a keener tooth to scandal. I die,
forgiving every man who has wronged
me, asking forgiveness of every man whom
Iliuve wronged. I have atoucd, so far
as I know or can atone, for every wrong
I have ever done.”

On motion of .Ml'.’(.ilil‘i.l.‘!, a committee was
ordered on the New York boundary.
Bills for Public Acts—-to make January lst
a holiday, came from the House rejected.-
Mr. Pardee moved that Senate insist. and ask
a Committee of Conference. Mr. Carpenter
opposed. It is not called for by the business
part of the community, and will occasion in-
convenience in the country. Mr. English re-
plied fliat objections can be obviated by regu-
lating the time of payment when the notes
are given. The relief is demanded by clerks
in our large cities. lllotion rejected ; and
Senate concurred with the House in rejecting
the bill.
Mi'.Carpcntei' moved a resolution that the
General Assembly finally adjourn on
Wednesday, June 2 .
Mr. English thought the motion premature
and moved to lay it on the table, rejected.-—
Mr._ Carpenter thought all business might be
accomplished by that time. Mr. Curtis hoped
the Assembly would not adjourn before their
duties are performed. It would be better to
defer action. Mr. Benedict favored the reso-
lution ; and it was passed. '

The St. Louis llcpui
has the following : ~
LEAVENWORTII CITY, May. 13 1858.
Some startling news reached here this
morning from Camp Scott, to the effect
that peace had been made between the
biormons and Uncle Sam.
At a later lionr we had an interview
with Mi‘. Grcrrisli, an intelligent gentle-
man, who left the Camp Scott on the
10th of April, and stopped a short dis-
tance from that camp for two days. His
information from that camp is therefore
to that date, and from Salt Lake City to
the 9th. IVliilc his information does not
corroborate the news already given to
the full extent, it leaves no room to ques-
tion the fact that Gov. Cummiiig ilftfl en-
tered Great Salt Lake City. In order
to account for this change in the aspect
of fliftl-il'S, it may be well to promise that
Col. Thomas L. Kane, who went out as
a Peace Commissioner by way of Califor-
nia, arrived in Great Salt Lake City on
the 25th of February ; that he i'ema.iiic(l
there eight days ; that after that time he
proceeded to Camp Scott; that while
there he fi'equent.ly passed from the Camp
to 9, pince of conference with the leading
Llofmons’ outside of the city ; that, in
pm'suanc.'i of iiegotjatioiis then entered iii-

Death of General Persifer P. Smith.
'l‘lic uiicxpccted aniiouiiccnieiit of the
death of Bi-evet Major General Persifer F.
Smith will occasion a ver general expres-
sion of regret General Smith had but just
been appointed to the commaml of the
army of Utah, and was pl'(:pill'lllg‘ to
march from Fort Lcavcnwortli, wlien
suddenly cut oil’ by the compluiiit which
has for some time rcmli.-i'c(l him an invalid
but which it was hoped, had been so far
conquercd us to udniit of his return to
active service. A telegraphic dispatch
announces that his death occured at head-
quarters at Fort Lcaveiiwortli on Sunday
night.
Persifer Frazer Smith was born in
Philadelphia in November, 1798. He
was a son of Jonathan Smith, f'oi-merly
cashier of the Bank of Pennsylvania, and
afterwards cashier of the Bank of the
United States. The niatcrnal gi'aiiclfatli-
er of General Smith was Pei-sifer Frazer,
who was a Licutciinnt Colonel in the
Revolutionary Army. General Smith
was bred to the” law. After graduatiiig
with honor at Princeton he entered the
law oflice of M1‘. Charles Chauncey, in
Philadelphia, and upon his admission
removed to N cw-Orleans, where he
continued to practice his profession
until the breaking out of the Florida
VVar, in 1836, when he volunteered his
services, and held command of the Louis-
iana Voluiitcers. The militariiy talent,
which he possessed in an iiiiusual tlegrce,
there became developed, and his bravery
and ability obtuiiied for him the f'avoi'a-
ble 1'ega1'd of his siipci-iors in command.
Gen.ei'nl (then Colonel) Z-.icliai'y Taylor,
in particiilar, formed it lijgli estimate of
his abilities, and took uC_(:alSl:.)ll to l'(‘_C0lll-
mend hiiii to the attezition of the ‘Var
Depurtineut, as a capul;-lo and [lcS€_l‘Vlllg
ofliccr. Gen. Taylor rarely made mis-
takes, and did not fall into a blunder in
this 938$. From the date of their first
i1.C.C1.ll.5lill.i5.‘}.’?-.C.e, until the dcutli of Gene ‘ill
Taylor, the two olliccrs w,ei'e warm per-
sonal friends. At the solicitutioii of Gen-
eral Taylor the coiniii-and of the new reg-
iment of Mounted liifleiiicii, Wiii(.‘il was
raised at the coniinciiccmeiit of the Moxi-
