STAMFORD.
A passenger on one of the afternoon
trains going east, Saturday, had a very nar-
row escape from being crushed by the cars
at the depot in Stamford. He had alighted
for refreshments—though It is said he had
already more than enough of the fluid kind
—aud returning too late, attempted to get
on board while the train was in motion.
He missed his footing and fell between the
cars and the platform. It is just possible
foraman to do this and escape, provided
he has sufiicient presence of mind to “lay
low until the train passes. Two young
men name Pat Corlies and Michael Geratty,
who witnessed the accident, sprang forward.
and before the traveler could make an ef-
fort to escape from his perilous position,
they forcibly held him down, and thereby,
in all probability, saved his lit'e. One of
the man's feet came so near the wheels that
an overshoe he wore was taken 00, but
luckily without injuring his foot. The gen-
tleman appeared very grateful to his pre-
serylers, and promised to reward them lib-
era .
Otiv Friday afternoon last, between four
and five o'clock. the roof of Lockwood 6r
Jessup’s carpenter shop, Canal street, took
fire from some sparks proceeding from the
chimney, and which, alighting on the
shingles and being fanned by the heavy
breeze then blowing, quickly started what
threatened to be a serious conflagration.
By prompt action, however, on the part of
a few persons who happened to be at hand,
the fire was subdued, and without any gen-
eral alarm—Advocate.

We, the undersigned women of Green-

are produced in this community by the sale
of intoxicating liquors, after much deliber-
ation have decided as our first step, to ap-
peal to you to desist from this traflic in our
town. Large and enthusiastic meetings
have been held upon the subject, where,
with one voice, wo deplored the dangers
to which it exposes our husbands, brothers,
and especially our sons,p1acing before them
continual temptations to .sin, and leading
them into paths which bring both soul and
body to destruction. We earnestly appeal
to the better instincts of your hearts, in the
name of desolated homes, ruined lives,
blasted hopes and widowed hearts, for the
honor of ourcommunity. for our prosperity,
for our happiness, for our good name as a
town, for the sake of our. own souls, which
are to be' saved or lost. In the name of
that God who will judge you as well
its ourselves, we entreat you to desist
from this great sin among us. and place
yourselves in the ranks of those who are
’ striving to elevate and ennoble their fellow
men, and to this we ask you to pledge your-
selves.

The “ Star Chamber" excitement, which
at one time threatened to dash our legal, po-
litical and social fabrics all to pieces, has
subsided, and a quiet has now settled upon
things material and immaterial, which by

experience. How for seeing and wise must

Last week, alluding to South Norwalk
capitalists who were in'thc market seekingr
desirable stocks for permanent investment,
the Saugatuck Valley railroad stock was
mentioned as having special points of de-
sirability, but, unfortunately the stock had
long since been absorbed. It has transpired
that the gentlemen wanting “ Westport
Stage Line” Stock, not Saugatuck Valley R.
R., had got- up a pool to gobble all the
shares at a price per share several per cen
tum more or less above par, and were actu-
ally figuring the possible dividends to accrue,
when intelligence that the breaching to Mr.
Mills‘ best harness had broken, depreciating
the stock. was flushed over the wires to
South N orwalk, or in some otlier way reach-
ed the ears of the stock hunters, scaring.
and leading them to think a “corner,"
around which they might not be able to
squeeze, was imminent, causing them to
haul off, not permanently, but until the dc.-
pot rog widening shall be finished, when
they expect the stock will again advance,
and another chance to make be presented.
Until that blissful hour, they will repose in
