At seven o‘clock, Saturday morning last,
the mercury in the thermometer hangiu‘g in
the front stoop of Mr. Henry C.Randle‘s
residence indicated twenty-four degrees be-
low zero—the lowest'point on record. At
.lt‘lliel Grumman’s it was 20 degrees below.

Rev. Wm. T. Hill, and Rev. Mr. Policy of
the Methodist churches at Redding Center,
and Long Ridge, and Rev. K. B. Gliddcn of
the Congregational church, have received
donations front their parishioners to the
amount of more than $100 each.
The Protestant Methodist Church of
Georgetown has voted to become Congrega-
tional, and will become connected with that
denomination.
Heroism in Southport.
The GAZETTE recently commended the
noble act of a boy who saved the life of
a fellow skater from the perils of broken ice.
Faitfield County can produce as notable an
instance. Ashort time ago JOHN PERRY
the son of a truly honorable father, rescued
four young ladies from a watery grave, all
daughters of some of the most respectable
finn'llies in Southport. The ice gave away
beneath them, the water was deep enough
tollrowut‘uem, but‘with great presence of
mind, the young hero brought them all safe
to land, one of them from the depths. A
silver pitcher and salver, feeliugly inscribed
partially expressed the gratitude of the joy-
ful parents—ADMIRER.

Stamford.
Ralph Waldo Emersonlecturesin Stamford
Tuesday evening, 11th inst.
A large temperance meeting is announced
for tonight, (Monday). Messrs. Dodge and
Uniacke are the speakers.
We are pleased to notice the return of
Capt. R. W. Shufeldtfrom a cruise of nearly
three years in the China and Japan seas. It
will be remembered by many of our citizens
that Capt. Sllufeldt went out with the flag
ship Hartford. He comes home with Wa-
ehnsett, and we hope will enjoy a long fur-
lough among his many friends in Stamford.
Capt. S. has had excellent opportunities of
observing the conditions of Chinese society
and the effect of Western civilization upon
that people. We learn that Capt. Shufeldt
has been invited to give a public lecture on
that subject before the Stamford Lyceum and
our citizens generally.
One of the strangest things of which we
have heard in this strange age of ours, has
just been brought to light. A gentleman
who has figured prominently in this town
for many years, and who owns considerable
property here, and who but a year since was
united in holy wedlock to a charming young
milliner, has had a woman return from Aus-
tralia with two children bearing the impress
of their father’s countenance, who claims to
be wife No. 1. The brother of wife No. 1,
who resides in New York has called on us
and made revelations of the most astound-
He is determined that nothing
less than thirty thousand dollars will appease
the injured wife. The endurance and deter-
mination of the lady in question was remark-
able, she having travelcd from Australia with
two children, one of 9 and the other of 7
years, without any protecticn. We shall
await {other developments before we give
the names of the parties—Advocate.
Greenwich.
The extraordinary religious interest in the
Methodist church in this village continues
without abatement. Last Sabbath morning
seventy persons were publicly received on
probation, and fortyfour were baptized by
the pastor. The charge given to the proba-
tioners, by Rev. Mr. Hatfield, was very im-
pressivc, and while delivering it, not only
were tliosc;addressed deeply afl‘ected,but the
entire congregation. The church was crow d-
ed to utmost capacity, and the occasion was
one that will never be forgotten by those
who were present.-—Arirocale.
Danbury.
A special Town meeting is to he held Feb,
22, for the purpose of adopting some plan for
the support of the poor of the town for a
term oi years, of authorizing the purchase of
a farm for that purpose, and to establish a
Town Wbrk House.
The Turner House has passed into the
hands of the Lelands, of the N. Y. Metropol- .
itan Hotel, and is to be immediately-enlarged
and improved. 0. E. Currier is to have
charge.
Saturday week, a little son of Mr. Oscar
Sirrine was run over and seriously injured
by a run away horse.
The slips in the Methodist Church were.
sold last Monday, for about $2,000.
Samuel McCarthy, while going upWoostet‘
street Sa’urday night, fell and broke his leg
just below the knee.
The Episcopal Church is being rapidly
completed. The new stained glass windows
have all been put in, and the partition be-
tween the old and new parts taken down. It
is expected to be ready for occupancy about
the first of March.
Miss Sarah Sprague, living on Elm Street,
died very suddenly Wednesday morning.
While engaged in Ironing, she felt a pain in .
her breast, anti in about ten minutes after
she died. The cause is supposed’to be heart
disease—Times. ‘
Bridgeport.
One of. our enterprising shoe dealers re-
cently missed a pair of ladies’ shoes from the
outsrde of his store, but did not know who
had taken them. A day or two afterwards
a man came into the store with the identical
pair, and wanted to change them for larger
ones. On being questioned he said he did
not know who owned them, but that a wo-
man asked him to get them changed for her.
The shoes were detained and the fellow
“mizzled.” Cheeky, that, rather! _

Comfort S. Goodsell, the - musician and
come lian, died Thurs-lay ,at the. resi~
this city. He had been in failing health for
a long time, and for several weeks had been
confined to the house. He was born in
Brookfield,'in this State, .wbere hisfaiher
liVL-d and died, but commenced his career as
an actor in New York, we understand.
Oscar F. Peck and Gordon E. Myer were
arrested in New York, at Tifi‘auey’s jewelry
store, while tying to sell a diamond ring
worth $350, which they had stolen frOm
Miss. Ellen Howe, of Bridgeport, Conn.
They weretakep to the Bridgeport jail.
We learn frouj-Capt A. A. McNeil, forty
years Light House keeper to this vicinity,tha,
Friday-the‘tide in the harbor reached a lower
point than he ever remembers it before. It
rose and tell about 12 feet. Parties walk“
out to the Beacon and picked up a small
brass cannon, such as is generally used on a
yacht and was probably lost overboard from
some such craft. Persons could have easily
walked over to the Light-house.
Anew machine for cutting files, perfected
and patented by Messrs. G. F. Card and C.
A. Stanley, will cut of six-inch files ten in an
hour, or 100 per day, will make from 28 to
2,000 cuts in a minute, and produce a file so
flnonnd regularly cut that it requires a strong
magnifying glass to perceive the teeth.

The store of Messrs. Taylor do Adams was
broken into by burglars on Friday night last,
and (mites quantity of boots and shoes, ar- '
my blankets, etc., were stolen thcrtfrom.
Suspicion pointed to several men belonging
on board a schooner in the harbor, and on
Saturday the vessel was searched, and some
seventeen pairs of boots, a lot of shoes,
blankets, &c., were found, together with
some hams stolen recently from Mr. Henry
Wakenian. Joe Baker, an old offender, and
a man named Smith, cook of the vessel,
were arrested and taken to Bridgeport, An-

ted, lnade good his escape.
Mr. Alva Gray, one of the oldest inhabit-

Thirteen chickens were stolen from Mr.
David B. Bennett’s place on the night of the
5th inst. The tracks of two persons were
found in t' 'e snow next morning, but could
not be followed any distance. The previous
week a barrel of flour was stolen from Mr.
David J. Bennett’s sloop.
The “indecent haste" with which our late

W At a late meeting of the Medical So-
ciety of the County of New York, Dr. Austin
Flint read a valuable paper on "Alimenta-
tion of' Disease.” He clearly pointed out the
fallacy of the popular error that abstemious-
ness on the part of the invalid was one of
the chief means of cure, for he submitted
that nothing possibly tended to the speedy
recovery more. than the administration of
substantial, nutritious food. He reviewed
the various stages of starvation, and showed
that in the case of well persons the absence
of proper nutriment contributed in no small
degree to the cause of death. He truthfully
observed that in many instances medical
doses often disgusted the appetite of the pa-
tient, and he held that his desires for cer-
tain articles of food should be gratified, at
least so far as his digestive organs and sys-
teln generally could sustain. Finally, he
adverted to the great dangers arising from a
defect in alimentation. Altogether the sub-
ject was treated in a clear and comprehensive
manner. Professor H. Barker spoke at some
length on the diet of women after accouche-
ment and gave the benefit of his experience
in the matter. He was followed by Dr. Ja-
cobi and Professor Noydes, and the proceed-
ing‘s were brought to a 010' e by Dr. Benjam-
in Howard, who presented a new method of
teaching “Surgical Anatomy of Ingnlual,
Hernia,” and illustrated the subject with me-
chanical demonstrations.

DEMOCRATIC INCOBRUPTmILITY.—-The
Democratic party in California achieved its
victory at the last election, though disaffec-
tion in the Republican party, arising out of
alleged corruption in the nominees of the
party, .Scarcely however, have the oppo-
nents of this corruption become warm in
their seats, than their integrity is even more
severely assailed. The first instance of ven-
ality which attracts public attention is the
election of United States Senator. So direct
and thorough are the charges, that the Senate
did not dare reject resolutions providing for
an investigation. Published statements are
made, singling out with uncomfortable ac-
curacy several honorable gentlemen more
prominently involved. The Assembly, how-
ever, has delcated the resolution, doubtless
for the reason that, if an inveTltigation was to
be had, which should probe the matter to the
bottom, many more would be shown to have
prostituted their official position to unlawful
gain, than are now implicated. , So much for
Democratic pretense to Incorruptible integ-
rity—Evening Journal.

. _t§‘Professor Whitney mentions, as one of
his many illustrations of the historical char-.
actor of word making that we put on a “pair
of rubbers, because, when caoutchouc was
first brought to us, we could find no better
use for it than the rubbing out of pencil
marks. But overshoes of this material are
not universally called “rubbers.” In Phila—
delphia, with a reference to the nature of the
substance of which they are made, they are
called “gurus.” A Philadelphia gentleman
and his wife coming to spend the evening at
a house where they were very much at home
he entered the parlor alone; and to the ques-
tion, “Why, where is Emily ‘2” answered,
Oh, Emily is outside cleaning her gums upon
the mat ;” whereupon there was a mbmen-
tary look of astonishment and then a peal of
laughter.

SINCING.—Singing is a great “institution.”
It oils the wheels of care, and supplies the
place of sunshine, A man who sings has a
good heart under his shirt front. Such a
man not only works more willingly, but he
works more constantly. A singing cobbler
will earn as much money again as a cord-
walner who gives away to w spirits and
indigestion. Avaricious men never sing.
The man who attacks singing throwsn stone
at the head of hilarity. and would, if he could
rob J one of its roses, and August of meadow
larks. Singing promotes health, strengthens
the voice, the organs of the throat and lungs
and prevents or cures consumption. Sing-
ing 18 an excellent agent for promoting men-
tal hygiene—Herald of Health.

S. D. «in H. W. SMITK‘s AMERICAN On-
GAst—The Messrs. Smith are the oldest
reed Instrument manufacturers in Iloston.
They have from the first, striven to make as
good work as human hands could produce,
and have been wide awake for all valuable
improvements in such instruments. They
produc‘c a great range of styles, varying in
form and capacity, adapting them to parlor
school, Church or ball, as may be desired.
The many patents for improvements, owned
exclusively by these manufacturers, enable
them to control the manufacture of this pe-
culiar Organ, so that no other reed instru-
ment of whatever name or claim can com-
pare With them in perfection. It Is only
necessary to try them to be satisfied of this.
