Dag The following comes to us from the Seventeenth District:-
 DONALD J. WARNER, Esq, of Salisbury, a distinguished member of our Bar, and hitherto lifelong democrat, has come out strong for Grant and Colfax, and will throw all his influence, as he will his vote, for the Union Republican Ticket. MT. Warner plainly gives his reasons to any enquirer, for his conviction that the only way to Peace and Security for the Country lies in the election of Gen. Grant to the Presi- dency; and we understand that his patri- otic example has already been followed by several of his fellow-townsmen who have hitherto chased themselves among the de- mocrats. Wehope that some of the towns in the 17th district may have an opportunity of hearing MT. Warner during the cam- paign. They will find him an able, forci- ble and entertaining speaker.

ED. ENoUIRER:-iSir:-T accident to Charles 'Wadhams, in Canaan, alluded to in last weeks ENQUIRER, was occasioned by a nuisance of several bushels of lime stone for Aux, as it is called by the furnace work men), having been shovelled into a pile up on the travelled pathway, from q loaded wagon, and left by and upon one of the wheel-tracks, about quarter or third oi the way from the top of the first hill north of Hunt < Lyman's furnace. It had re- mained there nearly week. an obstruction to the public travel. It was not visible to a horse or driver, at first, in driving upon the hill from the south, so that it was not easily guarded against. Several horses had been frightened in consequence of it. though with no serious results until the ac- cident of September 9th, after which il was removed. As soon as the young man s horse took fright, it overturned his sulkey against tho wall, his foot caught in the wreck, and he was dragged over stones and against the wall to near the foot of the hill, receiving in addition kicks from the heels of the horse. The frightened animal, af ter it had passed over the bridge at the foot of the hill, was caught by some persons in advance of him, who witnessed the acci- dent That the injuries did not prove fa- tai, may be attributed to the fact, that a young person of about 20 years, will occa- sionally sustain injuries of this kind, which would prove fatal to an older person.

LITCHFIEID

In the Superior Court, last week, but one jury case was tried, Cary vs. Donnelly. Ju- ry disagreed. Counsel for pl'f, Hunger ford < Graves for defendant, Barbour & B. w. Seymour.
 On Tuesday, the petition of W. H. Green vs. State, for new trial for newly discovered evidence, came up before the Court. It was proved that the negro, Tallman, who swore to @ confession of Green on the trial, had since admitted that his testimony was untrue. Evidence of one of the jurymen was offered, that with out Tallman's testimony, he should never have agreed to the verdict rendered. The case was argued by Adams & Sedgwick for the State; by Johnson & Seymour for the prisoner. On Wednesday morning, Judge Miner gave his decision granting new tri- al, for the following reasons:-
 The evidence offered was in its charac- ter clearly within the rule regarding 'snewly discovered evidence" It came to nobody's knowledge till after the trial. Further more,it is clearly proved that Tallman com mitted perjury on the trial. Itis undoubt- edly true that new trial will not be grant ed merely for the purpose of impeaching a witness. That, however, is not this case Although Tallman's character for truth was admitted to be bad on the trial, and the jury were instructed not to believe hls story unless corroboratcd; yet, there was just corroboration enough to have given his testimony weight with the jury. It was dangerous because, being clear and minute it was corroborated in many unim- portanr details, but not on he main .fact- Ulat Green co,yessed murder. The judge re- marked, that, looking over the testimony, he could see that there might we'll be reason able doubt whether Green was guilty, from the length of time that had elapsed after the poison must have been administed, if he gave it, before Mrs Green died. This made Tallman's evidence of vital impor- tance to the prosecution. The court had, therefore, come to the conclusion that 8 new trial must be granted, without refer ence to the testimony of one of the jury men, of the admissibility of which there was great doubt.

DEMOCRATIC RowDYIsM. Wednesday evening of last week company of Boys in Blue, while marching from New Haven to Fair Haven, were murderously assaulted by the Irish of the Fifth Ward. Brick-bats, stones and other missiles were thrown and several of the Boys were seriously, and one it is feared fatally, injured. Father Hart, Catholic priest, interfered and used every effort tostop the riot. The attack was en- tirely unprovoked and evidently premedi- tated. The Boys marched that way again Thursday night but were not attacked. Such are the fellows who elect and re- elect English.

Senate Almost Unanimous. Large Gains
 in the House.

On Monday the Republicans of Maine, following the magnificent lead of Yer mont, added more than half to their last years majority, and not only carried every Congressional but every Senatorial District, but one, adding largely to their majority in the Lower House.
 "In 1867," the Democracy have been in the habit of saying, "we gained 16,OOO on the vote of tho previous year as great a gain in 1868 will give us the State!" Maine answers by increasing the Republican ma iority, on tho largest vote ever boiled in the State, and against the most strenuous opposition the Democracy have ever offer- cd. Thus the party of "Great Expecta- tions" receives it's second severe lesson, this season. and awaits only the decisive victories October is sure to bring us, be- fore it gives up that moderate degree of hope the nomination of Horatio Seymour left it. If, as tho best advices indicate, Pennsylvania is added, three weeks hence to the Republican victories the West ii sure to give us-THEN FOR OLD CoNNEorr CUT!
 The result in Maine is even more cheer ing than that in Vermont. Not only is the victory greater in itself, but it comes i'7 addition to that of last week, and shows conclusively that the tide which set so strongly against us in 1867 has turned in our favor in 1868. Again let us entreat the Republicans of Connecticut, and es- pecially of.the Old Mountain County, to make hay while the sun shines, give Grant a rousing majority, this fall, and elect ou1 State Ticket in the Spring!
 With proper effort Connecticut, Nev York, and New Jersey can be carried fol Grant in November, and clean sweel made of every Northern State!
