can is the stronger boat. able to endure

will. no doubt, be well patronized by those
who prefer the fresh breezes and picturesque

is :1 public benefactor." Surely our friend
is entitled to the name. A more unprumis-
ing piece of ground could hardly be found
than the swamp—lot of bugs, rocks and mud,
when be bought it a few years ago and be-
gan its improvement. llis neighbors scouted
the idea that anything could be made of it:
told him that he \Vth “ wasting his money,"
etc. But the place contained all the features
and materials for line development; :1 delight-
ful outlook 1)\‘Cl the llutlmr and Sound; liv-
ing springs of tvntcr bubbling from the rock;
stone in inexhaustible abundance; soil rich
and deep; ”PC: and rocks in picturesque
wildness. Ami out of the chaos of :rude
nature. art and taste are evolving a little
Punulist- of :1 villa, with miniature lake,
lovely walks and drives, and buildings match-
ing the charming surroundings. It is not
only 11 great improvement in itsclf, but to
the whole neighborhood, and reflects the
bigbcst credit upon its enterprising projec-
tor. Long may be live to enjoy it E A pleas-

one moment: the middle-ugetl are worn out
in health and energy before they reach their

The Danbury New: 3211's: “ An aged but
rather rural deacon of this town somewhat
astonished his family on returning from a
recent visit to Bridgeport, by disclosing in
the recesses. of his capacious valise, two
valuable volumes in blue and gold, 3 prize
package containing gold coin. a cake of fig
paste, two plclorial papcn and a package of
ice cream candy. He said a boy on the cars
gave him these things. He confased that
the boy was an entire stranger, but fervently
hoped that heaven would point him usky-
bluc if he ever forgot the kindness. "
The Advocate says. Rev Father Lynch
of Stamford, had 8 very narrow escape from
being killed at Fordhmn on Tuesday last.
011 alighting from the cars at that place, be
started to walk :1 short distance between two
tracks. The train soon started out from the
depot, and Father Lynch in avoiding it did
not notice a train coming rapidly from the
opposite direction. He was caught between
the two trains and was thrown violently to
the ground, but with the exception of a
slight wound on the bead, and a bruised leg,
received no serious injury. leaving out of
account the severe shock to his nervous sys-
tem Ills escape frvnn death was almost
miraculous.
