The District School House on Clapboard
Hill was destroyed by fire on Tuesday after-
noon last. The cause of the fire is unknown.
The building was repaired last Fall at a
cost of about $500. ~
On Thursday afternoon last, Mr. Lewis B.
St. John was out with an assistant engaged
in breaking in a colt, which'was harnessed
to wagon by the side of a horse. Mr. St.
John and his man were in the wagon, when
the team became unmanageable and run.—
Both men were thrown out and under the
wagon,one wheel running over Mr. St. John
and two over his man; one horse fell, when
the wagon was upset and thrown over the
horses. Both men were injured, butneither
seriously.
I" ' WESTPORT.
A few extreme cold nights has formed ice
of some thickness. There is a consequent
rush among ice men to see who will make
the first and greatest haul. Since the , pain-
ful incident of “ breaking in,” referred to in
our last, we have not ventured forth.
On Friday evening, Feb. 18, a juvenile
soirec was given by Mr. and Mrs. A. S.
Huriburtt at their residence near Mr. S. H.
Alden’s, to which some fifty youthfuls were
invited. By reason of a terrific. rain storm,
many were unable to attend, but those who
ventured out were entertained in a style not
soon to be forgotten. Taking a rational
view of the subject, we are in favor of this
method of doing things, believing it to be
one of the best for teaching children how ,
to behave themselves. -
The subject of “ our next lecture ” is to be
“ Marriage in Shade and Sunshine ,” and
will be delivered by Rev. G. W. Woodrufi‘,

Mr. Chas. Graham having sold his House
and grounds to F. B. Morehouse for $4,000,
will commence at once the erection of an
elegant mansion on the lot adjoining. On
the property just sold, stands the celebrated
barn, which many years ago, was framed,
covered, painted, and entirely finished in
one-day. The idea of constructing a barn
infso short a space of- time, was projected
’ by Daniel Plait, Esq., long since deceased,
but well remembered by our older citizens.
Having secured the services of many car-
penters in and about town, the feat was suc-
cessfully accomplished, and at supper time
allihan‘ds were treated to bread made from
flour, ground by Uncle Daniel Nash, at that
time in charge of the grist mill, from grain
threshed on the newly-made floor, which
that afternoon had been expressly harvested
for that purpose. ‘ .
The lecture delivered at Saugatuck, on
Wednesday eVening last by Dr. Thomson,
was like all the efforts of that gentleman,

g Our new lawyer, Frank W. Perry, Esq.,
of Worcester, Mass, has taken an ofiiee
. over the store of Patrick Campbell, and will
attend to matters appertaining to his line.
He comes to us well recommended and with
a good record. Mr. P. studied law with
Hyde dz Waldo, Hartford, Ct.,—-practieed
many years in the town of Vernon, from
whence he went to Wisconsin where he was
at the breaking out of the war—entered the
military service Of the United States as a

BRIDGEPORT.
It appears that after all, there have been
no- cases of trichina: in Bridgeport. Dr.
Charles W. Singer, temporarily residing in
,. that ci was present at the ost mortem ex-
amination of the bod 'of rs. Koch, and
dissented from the opinion of the attending
physician in attributing the cause of death
to’trichinaa. He says the muscular fibre
Was sound and firm to the touch, and on
separating the fibres the intervening con-
nectino tissues were unbroken and continu-
ous. r. Singer obtained specimens of the
muscular fibre and sent them to Dr. White,
professor of microscopic anatomy in Yale
College, for microscopic inspection. Dr.
White replies that'he examin' d the speci-
mens sent, with a microscope with the mag-
;nifying powers of 50, 250, and 350 diameter
_ respectively, and did not find any trichinze
or any other parasites. He further says :—
“ I do notbelieve the patient from whom
these specimens were taken, could have
died from the presence of the parasites call-
ed trichinte.
. The largest temperance meeting ever held
in Bridgeport took place in Franklin Hall
on Tuesday evening. Seven different tem-
perance organizations were represented, and
the meetin was very enthusiastic. The
Wheeler & ilson band furnished music,
and addresses were made by Professor
Arms, Captain C. P, Coats, Wm. M. Osmun,
E. F.’ Strong, Esq., the Rev. A. N. Benedict
and others. The meeting will give a new
impulse to the cause of temperance in this
cit , and doubtless do much good.

STAMFORD.
The dead body of a man, supposed to
have been a trairp, was found on Thursday
afternoon last, between the New Haven and
New Canaan railroads, at a point a short
distance from where the two roads diverge.
When found life had apparently been but a
short time extinct, as the body 'was yet
warm. Some of the man’s brains were
found close by the New Haven track; and a
wood pile, over which the body appears to
have been thrown was marked With gore,
but the precise manner of the man’s death
still remains a mystery. _
The Advocate regrets the lack of interest
evinced by the leading temperance people,—
no meeting was held on the 22d inst. It
says: “ One thing is certain, if the ood
people of-Stamford take no part in the em-
perance revival at present . agitating the
State, it is not because there is no need of
such a reform among us.” _
The branch track of the New Canaan
railroad, leading down to the Steamboat
Landing, was considerably damaged by the
rain storm in the latter part of last week.

ing in the Advocate, an interesting series of
reminiscences of the earlier days of Stam-
ford.
Within the limits of our town, in broad
daylight, an unfortunate man was found
dead. Though it. was quickly reported, and
before night scores of people in the village
were aware of the fact, the dead body was
allowed to lie in its tracks until the next
day. A few weeks ago the dead body of a
woman was found within fifteen minutes
walk of the centre of the village, and it, too,
lay out under the wintry sky, exposed to the
probability of being mutilated by animals,
for fifteen hours after it was discovered.

Mrs. J. S. B., of Brooklyn, writes to as-
sure us that the handsomest man in Congress
is Senator 0. S. Ferry, of Connecticut. Mr.
Ferry is a brunette; he has a tall, well-pro-
portioned form, large, lustrious, black eves,
and features of faultless regularity; besides
this, his manners are by far more elegant

Death of non. Alon Burlingamc.
The death of ’théHBII‘Afi‘son Burlinganie
occurred on W3dnesday last, at St. Peters-
burg, Russia. The announcement was re-
ceived with sad emotion, and created a pro-
found impression throughout the country.
Mr. Burlingame was born in New Berlin,
Chenango County. N. Y., Nov. 14, 1822. His
youth was spent on the Western frontiers,
at one time acting with surveying parties
and at another participating in the making
of Indian treaties, far beyond the confines of
civilization. He laid the foundation of h s
education, at the Branch University of Mich-
igan, but removing to Massachusetts, he on-
tered Harvard Universit , where he receiv-
‘en a degree in 1846. e studied law and
practiced in Boston. In 1852 he was elect-
ed to the State Senate, and in 1853 was a
member of the convention for revising the
Constitution (3' Massachusetts. He was
electc I a Representative in the Thirty-
Fourth Congress ; was re-elected to the
Thirty-Fifth, serving as member of the Com-
mittee on Foreign Affairs. He was also re-
elected to the Thirty-Sixtli“ Congress serv-
in on the same Committee.
r. B’s first speech of any length in Con-
gress was the memorable one on the assault
upon Senator Sumner, for which Preston
Brooks challenged him. '
In the death of Mr. Burlingalhe the loss
will be felt not only in the United States and
in China, but throughout the world ; for the
mission upon which he was engaged was
one which, in its operation, was calculated
to benefit the whole human race.
Private dispatches state that the body will
be taken charge of by Mr. Curtin, the Amer-
ican Minister, and the members of the Chi-
nese Mission, who will see to the embalm—
ing of the remains. The body will be in
state at the American Legation, in St. Pe-
tersburg, for the proper time, and will then
be sent to the United States, in charge of
Representatives of the United States and
China. The cause of Mr. Burlingame’s
death was a severe cold,upou which a con-
gestive chill supervened, terminating his life
in a few days. The negotiations with the
Czar will be continued by the Chinese Em-
bassy, and when completed the diplomatists
will return to China. ‘
o
W President Grant‘s message to the
people of New Hampshire, as delivered by.
Mr. Dawes in his speech at Nashua, will re-
joice the whole country. “Assure the peo-
ple of New Hampshire that the successful
collection and the economical expenditure
of money during the present year is an earn-
est and a pledge of what it shall be in the
year to come. Tell the people of New
Hampshire that during my administration
there shall be no ascending scale of public
expenditures; but whenever and wherever
the closest scrutiny shall disclose the possi
bility 'of cutting 06‘ a dollar, it shall be
done.” Additional force is lent to this very
important message of the Chief Magistrate
by the fact that it was borne by the official
who has been most zealous in scrutinizing
and curtailing the public expenditures, and
between whom and the President there is,
as now appears, the fullest accord—Trib-
une. -

——-The Hon. Dcmas Barnes has thrown a
bomb shell into one of the democratic camps.
‘He declared in the first meeting this year of

mittee: “ That in twelve years residence in
Brookl n he had seen taxes rise from $300,-
000 to 6,000,000 per annum, and those 01
New York from $6,000.000 to $26,000,000,
and that without comissioners but under
boasted democratic rule.”

:W The constitutional convention of II-

which should be incorporated into the con-
stitution of every State in the Union:
“Neither-the general assembly, nor any
county,city, town, township, school district,
municipal or ' other corporation, shall ever
make any appropriation or pay from any
public fund whatever, anything in- aid of
any sectarian purpose, or 0 help support
or sustain any school, academy, college,
university, or other institution of learning,
controlled by any sectarian denomination
whatever; nor shall.any grant, donation of

any such public corporation for any secta-
rian purpose whatever." .

THE ROAD—TEE NEW HAVEN, MIDDLETOWN
AND WILLIMANTIC RAILROAD of Connecticut
ll the FINAL LINK in the
GRAN IlAlR LINE ROUTE
BETWEEN BOSTON AND NEW YORK.
The line will be 52 miles in length, running be-
tween New Rayon and Willimantic._ assiug through-
Middletown, about. midway, and W) i connect With
the New York and New Haven Road at its western
terminus, and with the Boston, Hartford and Eric
Road at its eastern terminus -thus forming the
SHORTES'I‘ AND MOST DIRECT‘ROUTE BE-
TWEEN THE TWO CHIEF
Commercial and Financial Cities of
America.
In the minds of Railroad men, this route is the
natural line between the two Metropolitan Cities,be-
ing as nears. straight line as the formation of the
country will admit; is over 20 miles shorter than the
present most. popular route, and over 15 miles shorter
than any other possible route.
The two lines of railroad between New Haven and
Boston, vie Springfield on the one side, and via Shore
Line. throu b New London, on the other are lines
traversing t e outer edges of a square, which the New
Haven, Mlddletow n and Williinantic Railroad will
out diagonally. The position of each road is shown
allowing _
in the diagram:
The old lines were originally constructed in sec-
tions, with the view of passingthrougls the principal
cities, rather than to form a direct route between
New York and Boston, and hence the circurlous
routes adopted b them.
BUSINESS.—— or more than a quarter ofa century
a road through this section of the State has been
needed, and unlike most new railroad enterprises.
which have to wait the growth of business along its
line, this road will find a lar e established local trade
awaitin its completion t will pass through the
towns 0 North Haven, Wallingford, Durham,Middle-
field, Middletown, Portland, Cuatham, Marlborough,
Bebrou, Columbia, Lebanon, Colchester, and Wind-
B'
am.
It seems hardly necessary to call attention to the
business of aroad of such vast importance, having
connections with so many roads that are to become
feeders to it. At New Haven it will connect with
four lines: at Middletown with one, and at thliman-
tie with three, while others are beiu g projected.
In regard to the through trade, a single glance at
the map is more convincing than any argument can
be, as to the important fact that this route being the
shortest. and affording so great a saving in time,
must ultimately be the chief thoroughfare between
Boston and New York. -
CHARACTER AND PROGRESS OF THE WORK.
The Rood is built under the immediate supervision
of the ofilcers of the Company. who are most deeply
' interested in its success, and who design it to be the
most thorough, substantial, and the safest road in
the United States. They have called to their aid the
highest engineering skill in the country to direct the
work, and no p‘ains or expense will be spared to bring
it to perfection. The grades are very easy, the curves-
are large, the bridges of wrought iron. the rails se-
lected with care and of the best quality. and all
adapted to durability and speed. The grading is
nearly finished between New Haven and Middletown,
the bridges are completed and being placed in posi-
tion, the rails are beln laid at the rate bf HALF A
MILE PER DAY. whic will enable the Com any to
use this portron of their line for business ear y in the
Sprin . The Eastern section is beingrapidly graded
and a l the force that can be employed to advance e
is at Work. It is confidently ho ed that the who e
line will be finished and in operat on during the Fall
or early Winter.
AS AN INVESTMENT.
THE BONDS are Coupon and Re‘ istered. and are
issued in denominations of 8500 an 81,000. ' They
have 20 years to run, and are payable, principal and
interest, in New York. By an act of the Legislature
of the State of Connecticut, they are made exeui t
from all STATE AND LOCAL TAXATION, and i;
the Compsny from the UN ITED'STATES INCOM
TAX. The utmost care is used to protect the ho'ders
of these Bonds by the terms of the Mortga e, which
provides that if Company, at any time, efaults in
the payment at Interest for six months, the Princi-
pfil'sbull. at the option of the holder. BECOME DUE
MEDIATELY.
The Mortgage is made to the Treasurer of the State
of Connecticut. and his successors in ofiice, in trust
for the Bondholders, which is a guarantee or the good
faith of the Company, and a pledge that the inves-
tors’ interests wi I never sufi‘er from any want of sta-
bility in the holder of their Mortgage.
A HOME INVESTMENT.
It is unnecessary to remind the public that a HOME
ENTERPRISE, carried on in their‘own State, where
all the facts in regard to it are fully known, is more
worthy of attention than schemes for railroad build-
in or other rojects in remote parts of the country,
wlTieh invite one at enormous rates of interest. The
Managers of this Company are well known Connec-
ticut men, and the road itself is a most important
work of internal development, in which every citizen
of the State must take a just pride.
TAXES.
The exam lion of theFirst Mortgage Bonds from
all taxes wh_ch may be laid within the State is a feao
titre which causes them to rank with the issues of
the United States, while the additional exemption
from United States Income Tax places them above
any other investment in the market, and must com-
mend them to all persons seeking rofitsble invest-,
meats. It. will be borne in min t at the State and
Local Taxes in Connecticut range from 15‘ to 2%.
averaging about 9 r cent. As this tax 'is saved to
holders of the Air inc Bonds, it is e ‘valeut to the
payment of that amount as EXI‘R INTEREST, -
snd makes, with the saving of the Income Tax, 393.
00 on each 81,000 per annum, or nearly bx PER
CENT. INTEREST ON THE INVESTMENT. This
large return does not depend on the premium on
Gold. which is liable to decline, and may even fall to
panwithout afi‘ectin g the income from these securities.
INCOME. AS COMPARED WITH OTHER IN-
VESTHENTS.
A Six Per Cent. Gold Bond, subject to taxation
with the premium on gold at 1.0, must. be obtained
so low as 80 to yield the same amount of net income
as these Bonds at par: while with gold AT PAR the
Six Per Cent. Gold Bond would be worth only about
70, compared with these Bonds at par. ”
The Connecticut State Bonds, which were made
exempt Rom taxation by an act of the Legislature,
are selling in the market: at 103, and at that price
cld an income of 5%.. which would make the A IR
NE BONDS worth 114% on the same basis as at
that price they pay the same interest—namely, a};
per cent. . _
The desire to ca itsllzo the premium which may
now be realized on live-Twenty Bonds, and which
may at any time be extinguished by being funded at
I reduced rate of interest, and the material decline in
goldla awakening an inquiry for forms of investment
which shalLbe SAFE and which shall yield a liberal
me of interest in cdnanch.
To meet this demand, we ofi‘er the First Mortgage
Bonds oftlie New Haven, Middletcwu audWillimun-

spects worthy o the confidence of investors, and
we do so after thorough examination, as we are un-
