GREENWICH. ,
During the severe storm which occurred
on Friday night last some .rogucs forced an
entrance into the Railroad depot at Green-
wich, and helped themselves to all the booty
they could find, which fortunately did not
compensate them for their labors, and expo-
sure on the occasion. In the ticket office,
the burglars secured about $2 in pennies, a
box of segars 'and a coat; and in the bag-
gage room they picked up a pair of new gai-
ters, and broke open a box from which they
stole sundry articles of trifling value.
A few nights ago, an adroit robber climeb-
ed up a verandah, and entered the bed room
of ’l‘lios.~Asten, Esq.,“at Greenwich, and stole
therefrom a valuable gold watch. Mr. As-
ten awoke just in time to see the rogue make
his exit through the window.

St. Andrew’s Chapel has recen under-
gone many important improvements and al-
terations.
The new steam flour and saw mills, build-
ing by Messrs. Studwell a Hobby, at the
foot of Warren street, are rapidly approach-
ing completion. The boiler is already in
position, and an engine of forty horse pow-
er is on the ground.
The work of enlarging the canal is being
pushed forward with the rapidity and ener-
gy natural to expect from the men who,
have the work in hand. The steam dredg-
ingmachine is constantly at work, a large
force of laborers are employed, and altogeth-
er an active and busy scene is presented at
the lower section of the canal.
The child reported last week as having
been found near the depot, has since died.
"The canal boat, Armenia, of Philadelphia
loaded with coals, grounded on the bar
formed on the edge of the excavations made
by the ,“mud digger.” As the tide receded,
the boat was left lying on the edge of the ex-
cavation, so bent and broken by the immense
weight of her cargo, as to be almost a com-
plete wreck.
A man named Dailey, met with a sever e
and painful accident at Cove Mills, on Tues-
day, .while working at a machine for cut-

A baby, wrapped up in a pillow case,was
recently found drowned‘ in the canal.
DAN BURY.
The old Czirrington store, at the lower end
of Main street, is to be moved from its pres-
ent position and transformed into a barn.
It was built about 1790, and was for many
years the largest store, in point of business
in the country; large quantities of beef and
pork being packed there. During the war
of 1812 it was used as a. depot for the collec-
tion of supplies for our army. At one time
the proprietor c..rricd on an extensive direct
trade with the West Indies; and he also had
almost a monopoly of the salt trade in this
region. For a few years past the store has
been unoccupied.
The bear belonging to Dan Rice’s Circus,
on Saturday evening broke though the par-
tition in his cage, and attacked the kangaroo
nearly killing him. The fight was ended by
the keeper going into the cage and chaining
the bear. '
A few evenings since, James McGinty,
while partially intoxicated, armed himself
with a revolver and left his house with the
determination of “shooting some one,” ashe
said. While in this state of mind he encoun-
tered Charles McDermont, near the Depot,
and drew the pistol upon him, and made
three attempts to fire at him, when the by-
standers interfered and took his weapon
away, when he was allowed to depart.
The West Street Church'is to be closed
for four weeks, as the pastor is to be absent
on a vacation, and the church edifice is to be
renovated during the meantime.

Business is coming up and looks quite
brisk. O. Benedict & 00., who never keep
still, are now more active than ever. Their
factory is full of hands in every part.—

pany are running over time, and are this
week putting in another former.
The chief assemblyfiof the I. 0. Star of
Connecticut, will hold Its annual session, on
Wednesday, Aug. 19th, in the hall of Excel-
sior Lodge No. 2, at Bethel.
Among the papers left by the late Am-
mon Taylor, were found a number of old
deeds of land, some of them dated nearly
one hundred and thirty years ago, written
in the old style, and under the reign of “Our
Sovereign Lord, King George.” .
Jefl'ersomcm.
—Last Friday, Frederick Sherwood, son
of Deputy Sheriff Eleazcr Sherwood, . of
Greenfield Hill, was thrown from a mowing
machine, and striking in front of the cutting
bar, his left hand and arm were badly lacer-
atcd. He could not stop the team, and so
raised himself up and jumped backward two
or three times, thus clearing himself from the
machine and saving his life.
Cure for HydropHirbla.
The receipt is that of M. Cassar, a French
physician : Take two table spoonfuls of fresh
chloride of lime, mix it with half a pint of
water, and with this keep the wound cor.-
stantly bathed and frequently renewed.
The chloride gas possesses the power of de-
composing this tremendous poison, and ren-
ders mild and harmless that virus against
whose resistlcss attack the artillery of ,med-
ical science has been so long directed in
vain, Itis necessary to add.that this wash
be applied as soon as possible after the in-
fliction of the bite. The following are the
results of this treatment; from .1810 to 1824
‘ the number of persons admitted in the Hos-
pitals was. 184,.0f wliom- only two died;
from 1783 to 1824, there were admitted into
the hospital at Zurich, 223 persons bitten by
flificrcnt animals (182 by dogs) of whom
only $611.? died. '

Capt. D. O’Connell is at present engaged
in painting one of the largest and finest pic-
tures ever painted on canvass in this city.
The painting is the “crucifix,” with the
Marys and John weeping at the foot of the
Cross, and measures 10%x9% feet. The
outlines, expressions, colorings, and every-
thing pertaining to the picture are exquisite-
ly done, and when the work is completed
will reflect great credit on the artist. We
understand it is to be placed in the Catholic
Church at N orwalk.

WThc London Tlows publishes an able
leader on the democratic platform. It be-
gins by saying that“ if the brief summary
of the ,platform’ adopted by the democratic
party in the United States received by Atlantic
Telegraph yesterday, is accurate, the doom
of that party may be taken as seala .” The
reason for this sweeping judgment are very
clearly put forward. The platform, says
the Tinws, is mainly financial, and its main
feature is that plank favoring the taxing of
United States bonds. All the methods for
carrying out that. plan, says the Times “ are
simply violations of the contract deliberate-
ly made between the nation. audits creditors.
As such they have been condemned by the
vast majority of the republican party and at
the Chicago convention. As such they
have been condemned by err-Governor Sey-
mour and the better members of the dem-
ocratic party. But the majority of the con-
vention have ‘ favored ’ the taxation of the
bonds, and would, therefore, seem to have
placed themselves in array against the mass
of the republicans, aided by a large secession
from their own body, and so they have
courted a defeat.” The article concludes by
saying:
The western wing of the democratic par—
ty has overcome the eastern. The support
they maygain from the republicans through
the adoption of repudition cannot be con-
Sidercd,_ as the republicans who were favor-
oble to it were Mr. Stevens, General Butler
and their immediate allies—the men who
have been discredited by the impeachment,
of which they were the zealous supporters.
Contempt for law- has for a time brought
Mr. Stevens and the democrats together,
and may carry General Butler back into
the party of which hegwas up to the time of
the war a member. But it is impossible
that the alliance can succeed. The dem-
ocratic ‘ platform,’ as announced by the At-
lantic cable, is a forewarning of the dem-
ocratic defeat in the autumn, and must be
followed by the continued exclusion from
office, if Hot by the lasting disruption, of the
democratic party. -

—DnnserG FOR CHURCH—Now and then
we meet upon the sidewalk on a pleasant af~
ternoon,when the tide of fashion flows on
its shopping errands, a Quaker lady, and
the sight of her chaste, simple costume, amid
the feathery, fringy, parti-colored throng, is
like a breath of sea-air in a summer day.
There is no need, however, to forego, with
her, all personal adornment, to appreciate
and avoid the painful discrepancy which
multitudes feel, and which _ Mrs. Stowe pic-
tures in the following paragraph :
Very estimable, and, we trust, very relig
ions, young women sometimes enter the
house of God in a costume which makes the
acts of devotion in the service seem almost
burlesqueWhena brisk little creature com es
into a pew with hair frizzed till it stands on
end in a most startling manner, rattling
strings of beads and bits of tinsel, she may
look exceedingly pretty and piquanto ;and,
if she came there for a game of croquet or a
tableau-party, would be all in very good
taste ;but as she comes to confess that sheis a
miserable sinner,that she has done thethin gs
she ought not to have done asd left undone
the things she ought to have done—as she
takes upon her lips most solemn and tremen-
dous words, whose meaning runs farbeyond
life into a sublime eternity—there is a discre-
pancy which would be ludicrous if it were
not melancholy.

TnEEs '1}: STREETS—One evil arising fitom
planting trees in the streetis, that. they are
allowed to grow so low, that they obstruct
not. only the highway, but the sidewalk.
How often we hearthe complaint, that , the
clms or maples on a certain street are so low
as to interfere with the hats and umbrellas on
the sidewalk, and very materially with car-
riage-tops, loads of hay, lumber, and many
other things on the roadway! Now, trees
are not only objects of beauty, but are useful;
and we would do all in our power to encour-
age the planting of such; but we must bear
in mind that they will need to be looked af-
ter to see that they do not annoy the passcrs-
by, and become objectionable on that ac-
count. Let'eachpne look after the trees ‘op-
posite his own grounds, and the work is
done.

BOTH GREAT AND LITTLE—A great and
learned atheist once met a plain countryman
going to church. He asked him :
“Where are you going?”
To church, sir, was the reply.
What to. do there ?”
“To worship God.”
“Pray, is your God a great or a little God?”
“He is both sir?" ,
“How can it be both?" . -
“He ,is so great, sir, that the heaven of
heavens cannot hold him, and sci‘iittle that
he can dwell in my poor heart.” I
The atheist declared that this simple an-
swer of the countryman had more effect
upon his mind than all the volumes the
learned doctors had written upon that sub-
ject. '

SECOND—It is provided with a divided Ring, which
is easily attached to or detached from the Neck of the
Jar, and secured by a Bull.
Tuinn—When the band and ball are applied, its
combinations form a complete handle, thereby dis-
pensing with all lifters 01- other appliances, which
havc hitherto been in use for removing th'c Jui- from
boiling water. '
FOURTH—It is constructed with a Glass Cover, which
sets over the neck of the Jar, resting on an elastic
band on the outer surface of the shoulder, thus pre-
venting any flavor being imparted to the fruit by me-
talic or poisonous substances. This advantage alone
renders its superiority such as to bring it into imme-
diate and general use with the public.
