tanning the others. Capt. Gilbert Pen
dleton very kindly volunteered his beau

D%- A New York correspondent Of
l. 4 i.

b6y- A New York correspondent Of
tbe New Haven Palladium, in speaking
of the Rev. Sidney Dean, Of Thompson,
says:-" Reverend Sidney Dean mem
Der of Congress elect from Connecticut,
will preach in this house on Sabbath
morning and evening next, at the usual
hours
Such was substantially the announ-
cement made last evening from the pull
pit of the Plymouth church (Rev. Mr..
Beechor's) in Brooklyn, and should any
OF your readers chance to find them
selves convenient thereto, they will do
well to profit by the information
Mr.. Dean is man much after the
Beecher mould. There is the same
openness of heart, the same impulsive-
ness and fulness of thought, expression
and action, and the same hatred Of op
preston in both. The difference be-
tween them is due much more to cir
cumstances than to nature. Many a
time has the writer listened to him, aud
almost dreamed that Henry Ward
Beccher was the speaker. Mr.. Dean is
emphatically self made man. In ear
ly life he was a worker in a cotton facto-
ry, and ere he was Of age was running
mill successfully on bis own account
Soon after coming Of age he relinquished
his business in obedience to what he
deemed the call of duty, and became
Methodist clergyman, position which
filled with general acceptance, itinera-
ting through the eastern part Of Connect
icut, in accordance with the usages of
lbs denomination, for about l3 years.
In 1892 he withdrew from the ministry
for private reasons, and soon after es-
tablished himself as a shoe manuiact tur-
er in the village of Quinnebaug, nov in-
cludcd in the new town of Putnam, but
then a portion of Thompson.
= So acceptable, however, was ne as
preacher, that the people would not
let him rest, and for nearly two years
he supplied the pulpit Of the Congrega-
tional Church of Quinnebaug, being
scarcely permitted, even at his own ur-
gent request, to resign it to any success
sor. Since his resignation, he had been
compelled in spite of himself, to do oc-
casional service in the same way and
he stands to-day unquestionably the
Beecher of Windham County.
Mr.. Deans political life has ever
been in sympathy with Mr.. Gillette and
others of that stamp. His first ap-
pearance was as member of the
House from Thompson in 1851, when
he disappointed his friends by saying SO
little, and gratifed them by the ability
Of the little that he did say. His speech
on the Putnam case was, to the minds
Of many, the speech of the session -
Last Spring he was nominated by the
American party in the First District,
for Congress, and was elected by great
er majority than the whole vote Received
by bis opponent, Joel w. White
When he shall engage in the discharge
of his Congressional duties, he will be
found to be possessed of spinal col
umn.'"

Bay Isaac Rand, one of the robbers
Of the Concord Savings Bank, was ar
rested by Mrs. Clarissa Hall, wife of th.
tavern keeper at whose house Rand had
stopped. She stated that she sat down
by the side Of Rand, engaged him in
conversation, sent for Mr.. Sheriff Rix-
ford, and when she thought the proper
time had arrived, clapped her hand on
his shoulder, saying, at the same time,
you are my prisoner and took out
and read the reward notice to him =
Rand wanted it, but she refused, telling
him that she might want to arrest the
other one.

bsS- We understand that a couple OF
boys from Mysti C Bridge, Ct., went one
day last week to Bradford's Island, got
intoxicated, and on their return, the
boat became entangled in the sea weed,
when they both got overheard to push
it along. While trying to extricate
their boat, two smaller boys came by
and took one who was the most sensible
on board, not daring to receive the other
because he was so furious that they
barely escaped with their own lives
They came directly to Mystic and
reported his condition, but when aid
arrived he was not to be seen. His
body was recovered next day. To the
young men every where this should be
10 lesson.

maps sufficient to stock the school room
were made by a bookseller and = map
publisher. The sum of seven hundred
dollars, raised about two years previous
ly by the venerable widow Of the late
Rev. DR.. Bedell, of Ascension Church,
in New York City, for the purpose Of
establishing a school at the Five Points,
(but tor the applying of which no proper
agency had, until this time, been found,
was now appropriated to the expenses of
this school, which was Immediately
opened with some thirty scholars. The
entire expenses (amouuting upon an
average since its commencement to more
than one thousand dollars annually,)
We're assumed, at the outset, by prom
iuent and benevolent citizen, and the
members of Ascension Church and
has fourshed almost solely under the
patronage Of the latter, till this day
Through the efforts of Mr. Pease, main
ly, au act passed the Legislature of n.
York, in January last, emitting this
school to share in the public School
Fund, The provisions of this act will

~ A melancholy accident occurred

on the Stoningtou Railroad on Monday
evening. When the steamboat train,
which left Providence at about seven
o'clock for Stoniugton, was about two
and half miles this side of Kingston,
in the Great swamp" so called, the
whole train, (Which was running at the
rate of twenty miles an hour,) with the
exception of two of tho rear cars, were
suddenly thrown from the track, demol-
ishing the second class cars and injuring
the first two first class cars. The Sec
ond class cars were filled with passen-
gers, whose escape from almost instant
death was truly wonderful We visited
the place on Tuesday morning, and
found it one vast heap Of ruins, from
which, with but few exceptions, the pas
sengers escaped with slight iGrries
The names of the injured persons are
as follows:- 4
Benjamin Simmons, of Noith Kings
town, had both legs crushed ,in such a
manner that it was found necessary to
amputate them.
r. S. Lawrence, Boston Mail Agent,
had his leg 'ushed.
VIM. III Swift, of Harnden's Express,
had one foot crushed
Two ladies from Salem, Mass, had
their feet slightly jammed.
David McNeal, Boston, partially in
jured.
