Fight mt New Fairfield, COnnccticut.
On Saturday afternoon, even more fearful riot
than those at Stepney and Bridgeport was under
way. 1t that number of tories at New-
Fairfield had white flag up, which certain Union
men, in Danbury, determined to take down. Some
thirty or forty of them, therefore, repaired to the
location of the obnoxious rag, taking an American
nag with them to put in its place They surround
ed the pole for this purpose, when they were at
| tackled by party of tories, some two hundred
strong, and general fight ensued, the weapons
| being spades, axes and clubs. Being soon over
powed, though not till after hard fight the Union
men fed, carrying away with them Andrew Knox,
John Allen and Thomas Kinney, of their party, all
very badly cut about the head with spades. The
hrst blow struck was by "peace" man, who in
iiIcted fearful blow upon of the above. OF
the tories two were probably fatally wounded Zone
report, and apparently authenticated states that
the first one named is dead, and the other beyond
recovery named Abraham Wildman and -
dnrham. The Union men of course returned home
to Danbury, and the "peace" flag still waves.
II may be mentioned of interest, in connection
with the trouble in Fairfield county, that "peace
nag was taken down in EastOn on Thursday of last
week, and brought into Bridgeport; and that pre-
parationS were making in Bridgeport on Sunday,
to proceed to Hatterstown (in Monroe) to-day
(MGnday) to take down another
Our reporter vas informed that n BODY of hun
dred men was being ranidly organized in Bridge
port, to take charge of the putting down of the
public display of any flag save the National ensign.

The Destruction of the FARMER Office at
Bridgeport.
Once within the walls, scene of destruction oc-
Cured that almost passes description. The nva-
ders, maddened by the obstinatev and uunaturallv
disOyal and traitorous course of the doomed sheet
lett nothing whole that could be disposed Of Typc
job-prcsses, ink, paper, books, all the parapherna
Tia OF printing establishment were thrown into the
street, and two presses, too large to get through
the windows were broken in pieces by aid of a large
and heavy lever. The crowd even ascended to the
roof, and tore off such OF the signs they could
| reach. The only arms found in the building were
loaded rife and some two hundred and fifty heavy
clubs, turned from shovel handles and fitted with
cord to go about the wrist. A room was found
containing number of chunks arranged like
! berths, above the other. which contained bed
ding, and had evidently been recently used. The
! appearance of the building on Sunday morning,
! windowless and rided, dreary in the extreme.
! The active riot ended Oh Saturday night but the
streets were thronged on Sunday by excited groups
of men, and Nathan +. Morse, the junior partner in
the concern, was vigorously groaned when he ap-
| peared on the street.
From Special Despatch to the " z Tribune.
England for the south.
! WASHINGTON, August 27.-Mr. Adams, Minister
at St. James, writes that in the British mind the
! independence of the rebels is fully admitted
military and political necessity; that their acknow
! ledgment by England is but question of time and
| prudent courtesy. That while Britain is impatient
! to get cotton from the South, in exchange for
manufactured goods, she is anxious not to lose
| Northern markets, and is unwilling to part with
her hope Of breaking down the Morrill, tariff, by
the same means with which she chained the North
with the Walker tariff; and that two three more
successes like that of Bull Run, would entitle the
! Slaveocracv to immediate recognition.
