WoLcoTTv1LIE.-Afe few days since, man of about 70 years of age hired horse and bug gy of MT. H. J. Allen, proprietor of the Allen House, Wolcottville, stating that he desired to take . drive to Litcb6eld, and to return the same day. Not returning at that time Mr. might forget to return altogether, and started to Litch6eld to hunt him up. It was found that he hadn't been in Litchfeld at all, but taking a short cut across Chestnut Hill, he had been driving in the direction of New Ha- ven. Mr.Allen immediately started in pursuit tracked him to New Haven, from whence he found that the thief had taken the steamboat to New York. MT. Allen followed hlm thither, of the police After short search they found the property (which had been sold to third party), in barn in Forty-Seventh St., and soon after came across the traveller himself, whom they took into custody. He gave the name of Charles Douglas, and the New York officers say they have had the honor of his &C., quaintauce for several years, and that he is sn old offender. He was taken to Wolcottvills, placed under $1, 900 bonds, and lodged in our county jail, where he may now be seen through the bars, warning to old and young offend !! CTS in this business.
 Such . bold theft, and prompt pursuit aud arrest of the thief has not been known in this part of the county for some time.

Bishops Brownell and Williams have issued an address to the Episcopal Church Parishes, in the Diocese of Connecticut, commenting to their earnest consideration, the condition of many of the clergy, in reference to their sala- ries, in this period of the advanced and advanc. ing prices of all the necessaries of life.

NATIONAL FREEDMAN'S RELIEF AS-
 ISOLATION.

MR. EDITOR Allow ne space to call the attention of the humane 10 the condition and wants of the refugees from Slavery within cur lines. The National Freednan's Relief As. sociation, in their recent circular, say:
 We beg to call attention to lhe following facts connected with he wok 0! the Na;ioua! Freedmen's Relief Association The siiAple facts are appeal enough to remove the most obdurate doubts, and quicken the most slug gish sympathies.
 " The need is pressing and should be met at once. As our armies advance, and as the blacks are able to reach our lines, the able bodied men enter the service as soldiers, teaul. sters or otherwise. These want no help: bu, ; terrible straits. The Government gives them scanty rations, as it does to all the destitute, who are loyal but these urfortuna.es ncet clothing and shelter Without these, they will perish by hundreds during the coming winter
 Besides the numbers, greatly, 10 doubt tt be increased. congregated at other points, there are between 10000 and 50000 who need imme diate aid, on the banks of the Mississippi be tween Helena and Natchez. They have com, into our lines from plantations which had beer stripped of every eatable thing on which, bat they remained. they must have starved. They come in, after weary marches with our troops carrying what they could upon their backs How little could mother, with her babe ir her arms and her little ones clinging to her skirts, bring besides these ? Multitudes have nothing but the poor clothes in which they left their homes, and these nearly gone.''
 The undersigned, agent of the N F. R. As. sociation designs calling on the citizens oi Litcbfeld for donations in money, and old clothing for these needy Freedmen. In the towns of Salisbury, Canaan, Winchester, Wins ted, Torrington, WoIcottville. Plymouth, Sbar- on and Warren, he has received over twelve hundred and fifty dollars.
 Very respectfully yours,

BARKHAMsrEAD LIGHT HoUss.-A cores pondent of ours being recently in Barkham- stead. inquired what was the origin of the Light House.
 Some say that tribe of Indians, formerly occupying high wooded hill in the western part of the town, were accustomed to keep ur sort of camp fire during the whole of every night. Hence the place was called the Ligh, House. ....-.r
 Others say that . resident of the town, having seven daughters of marrisgeable age, had but one spare room in his house. These daughters being 50 fortunate as to have each . suitor ct the same time, were obliged to oc- cupy in turn the spare room. causing, oi course, light to be seen there at late heu1 of every night. Hence it was called the Lighi House.
 Others say that the first Indian squaw that settled in this town brought with her red haired pappooss; hence tt was called thu Light House.
 Others say-but that's ''enough said"

 Twenty days of grace are left to fill the quo- ta before it is too late-and ths New Haven CTS are just beginning to awake to just sense of their situation.
