AFFECTIVE EvEErs.-The family of Mr..
Philander Stephens, ivingin New Fairfield,
has recently been, and what is left of it
still is, the scene of the deepest sorrow and
affection. Not long ago the wife and only
son of Mr.. S. visited the West, and stop
ping IN New York on their return, the son
took the smallpox ard died last Sunday.
On Monday Mr.. assisted his hired
man in burying HIM on his own premises.
On Tuesday, the motherofthe boy, adaugh-
ter, neice, and in all probability Mr.. Ste
vens himself, were attacked by varioloid.-
During the evening of the same day Mr.. S.,
overcome by the disease and the melan-
choly circumstances by which he was sur
rounded, tainted and fell to the floor. Re
Lowering from his swoon, or returning to
consciousness, he retired, but arose again
at 2 o'clock yesterday morning, and left
the house. About six o'clock his body was
discovered suspended by a rope from the
neck, under the cow house in his barn yard,
and all signs of life had departed.-Hart-
ford Times, Saturday.
