HORRIBLE TRAGEDY IN CoNNKc KcrIcuT-A Man
kiHs hts ftc5 Daughters and Cuts Ais Thyodt.
The New Haven Journal, of October II. says "A
horrible double murder was perpetrated on Mon.
day evening In Bridgewater, Lftchheld county.
A man by the name of David Villets, halter by
trade, while In a At of passion, temporary in
sanity, murdered his two daughters aged IL and
Is respectively, and then attempted to put an end
to bis own existence by cutting his throat Villets
10 about 40 years of age has always lived In Bridge
port, and has been always considered a steady
temperate man. l.... ...r.. .. ...-a :.
The circumstances connected with this heart
sickening affair are about follows Villets oc-
cupfed, with his second wife, small shanty
house In the town, and his two daughters by his
hrst wife lived with them. Nothing was known
of the matter until the following morning, when
(says the Bridgeport Standard) he raped on the
window and attracted the attention Of person
passing. OF course there was a great gathering
at the place, and a physician was sent for Villets
throat was sewed up, and he was able to tell what
he had done, but was not disposed to say much, /,
remarking that he supposed he should be exam
1ned, &c. His manner was perfectly rational If
insane at the time of committing the murders, he
had apparently recovered Ii 10 stated that several
Of his connections by the mothers side have been
deranged. ... -
few months since he was in the employment
Of Messrs Sanford, at Brid2ewater but left them,
or was discharged. He had been at work In
Brooklyn and other places, but had not been able
to obtain a permanent situation. Last week he
returned home, and 1t is said proposed to give up
housekeepiBg-his wife to go home to her con-
nections In Massachusetts and his daug hters, he
said, he would place with the Shakers
His wife, (not the mother Of his girls) left on
Monday, and he, 1t is said, attended her to the
cars. Nothing unusual appeared in his ma nner,
and 1t was noticed that his daugh hters went some
distance TO meet him his return. Ii is thong ht
that he may have had some difficulty with his
wife, but this seems to be mere conjecture. His
first wife died some years since. He has been re-
put d to be a man Of sober habits. 1t is sup
posed that being in needy circumstances, he had
become detected and probably deranged. The
bly, died withaut a struggle The first blows
which were inflicted with a hammer destroyed
all consciousness. r.....-.. ....... ... =
Ii is thoug ht that Villets will recover. He Is
now confined in Litchfeld county jail. r.

The MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY Of Great
Britain are now issuing small adhesive stamps for
franking messages throughout their lines In the
United Kingdom. The principal is precisely
similar to the postage stamp system. A message
can be written wherever convenient, and, after
afHing the necessary stamp, 1t can be sent either
by post or messenger to the nearest magnetic tel
egraph station, and thence forwarded to its desti-
nation. There is said to be a liberal discount on
these stamps, In order to assist In bringing them
into general use. The multiplicity of the Ameri.
can Telegraph Companies will interpose a serious
obstacle TO the imitation Of this convenient plan
in this country, yet 1t seems as II conventional
tariff might be arranged for an effort Of the kind
