On Friday night wee k three strangers attracted 80-
tention by mysterious movements. They were
well dressed and every symptom of being well supa
plied with the needful. They were apparently very
anxious to proceed towards New York, while, for rea-
sons best known to themselves,they dare not take the
cars for that purpose. The strangers sent a telegramto
Jersey City for a steamboat. which, in due time,made
its appearance in the harbor. The party embarked
on board the steamboat, but the pilot, being unaccus-
tomed to the intricacies of the channehrun the vessel. , ' '
- aground. When the tide went out she heeled ove r',{‘
and she lays at present in a position where she is half
filled with water, at every return of the tide. ‘ Mean- . .
while the strangers disembhrked and telegraphed for‘
another steamer, which arrived the next day. A well
known steamboat captain, of Stamford,who is at pres-
ent retired from active service, was persuaded to un-
dertake the task of piloting the strange craft to Jersey 5
City, Wh ere it safely arrived. Rumor s ya the parties
ware Daniel Drew and two of his fugitive directors.

I Jeffersonion
A Correspondent sends us the following;-
St. James ’ Churcii, Danbury, was opened for divine
service Easter Sunday, April 12th. The interior is
greatly improved and benutified: the stained windows
of the chancel, in loveliness of design, and cxcellen cc
of execution, will not editor by comparison with‘any
in the State. New Carpets and cushions have been
donated by the ladies of the congregation ; whose zeal
and industry in making and fitting them, deserve
mcst honorable mention. To their efl‘orts and enter-
prise, also, is due the great improvement in the music
which was so marked and pleas ing a feature of the
Easter services. Miss Mary Smith, of South Nor-
walk, has been engaged as leading soprano; and Mr.
A. Girrett Of Danbnry, presides at the organ. Miss
S. has a pure, soprano voice, exquisitely clear and
sweet in the rpper notes: and he: rendering of her v'a-
rious solos duringthc day. and particularly of the
Hymn, “Christ.'the Lord &c," was a rare treat to all
lovers of music as well as an aid and spur to devoti m.
The Church is fortunate in b:ieg able to sacrr: so
accomplished a singer. She was not so well support-
ed as she should have been by certain of the voices in
the choir but time and practice may smooth them into
more perfect harmony. Mr. G. gets all the music pos-
sible, out of the instrument on which he plays,—and
something over and above. by reason of his fine taste
and quick sympathy ;—but a new organ would add
greatly to the attractions of the Church.
The formal til-opening by the Bishop of the Diocese
took place Tuesday, A‘ ‘1 14th. Bum.
