Burglars at Barton. .
On Wednesday night last lllr. Chas. Hob-
by, who lives over Mathers’ store, at Darien
was awakened by his dog and by hearing
some one moving about his apartments. He
arose and struck a light when he found his
own and his wife’s clothing taken away from
the bedside and gone. Hearing a voice on the
stairs he proceeded thither where he found
the clothing, the pockets only having been
rifled. Some $20 in money was taken from
his own and his wifes pockets, but even the
pocketbooks had been carefullyplaccd back.
Mr. H.- called up the clerk sleeping in the.
store below and lighting a lantern went into
,-thc street'l‘o‘ hi‘int for‘ the miscreantbut with-
out success“ The thief seems to have'gonc
across the street and entered Weed’s Saloon,
from which he stole a little money, mostly
in pickles, all the segars he had and a bottle
of whiskey, the poorestin the store. Neigh-
bor Weed says, he confidently expected to
:find the Burglar-'s dead body back of the‘
store, but as he didn’t, thinks he» couldn’t
have drank the ,whiskey. ‘This whiskey
bottle was thevonly- pistol used on the occa-
sion. ’ I ‘ l '

Another fatal railroad accident, in which
the old story of “killed by his own careless-
ness” was told over again, took place at
,DlsbNQW’S, crossing, in Compo, on Tuesday
afternoon last. ' The 12:15 express from
New York had passed Westport, and was
approaching the point as above, when a.
man named James Utter, familiarly known
“to everybody in towu as a peddler of tin-
warc, &c., attempted to cross the track with
' ahorse and wagon, the latter loadedwith
potatoes. As will be remembered, the Wind
blew strong from the cast that day, and al'
though 'he knew it was train time, hopes-
-sibly might not "have heard the whistle
when it sounded. The fore feet of the horse
. was on the track when ML Utter discovered
‘ the approaching engine, and his first in-
stinct, according to the engineer, seems to
have been ,to back off, but instantly Chang--
ing his mind, tried to cross ahead of the
train. It “33,199. NOW. The - locomotive,
running-ThT-ithe rate Of thirty-five miles an
hour, struck the _.,vehicle, tearing,..it into a
thoils'and .fpieee'sfiwhere .we sew its parts
.. soouafter, and scattering. the potatoes in all
"directions. , Mr. Utter Came'iir contact with
the cn‘giné‘boile‘r' so violently as. to produce
fracture of the skull and instant death. So
great was the speed that the train ran nearly
half a mile before 'i tI-stopped. It was backed
down, the deceased taken from the cow—
catcher, on which he was earned after the
blow, placed in the baggage car, and con-
veyed to Southport, that station being near-
est his residence, where a tcoroner’s jury
during the” afternoon rendered a verdict of
nocidental death, as above. " The body after
inquest was 'takem to 'its' late residence, on
the turnpike between Southport and West-
port. Mr. Utter was aged about 45 years,
and was‘ivell knOwn through this portiOn
of .tho county. His 1 funeral took. place on
Thursday. A wife and six children are left
to mourn’his unfortunate decease.
Lawyer Perry executed two wills’ on
Thursday last, one for Mr. William David-
son lately married, 'and the Other fOr Mrs.
Davidson. » It will be‘ remembered that
something was said in these columns a week
or two ago, about a party’s having three
wives inside of five months. The second
wife had money of her own; but he lost it
at her decease, simply because there was no
will. He now takes time by the forelock
probably seeing (we beg-pardon, he is blind)
—perceiving that the time for execution is
during flue mortal life. .
, Tuesday’s storm was one of the greatest
violence, doing no great damage among us,
but trying hard to do it, Tuesday night was
a terrible one, the roar of the wind, and
indeed the far off sound inspirIng the mind
with awe. It is seldom we _experience sucli
a-storm. The east wind had the effect to
* forcodn a very hightide, and cellars inltht';
village Ivere filled with Salt Water greatly to
the embarassment of owners. Lumber was
floated away, fences and trees blown down‘,
and a general time of commotion all around;
There was another high tide on Wednesday.

from the Railroad Bridge down to the old

channel. The whole thing when completed
will cost not far from $30,000 and is design-
ed at accommodate the lumber business of
these young and energetic builders. Henry
Guthrie and others have already furnished

larceny. He 'as duly discharged and de-
parted rejoicing when his time was up, only
to return as John Burt in 1854, on three sen-
