New Telegraph staticn.-A set of tele- graph instruments has been placed in the small building at the State Line station on the Conn. Western road, and connection with the main line was made last Monday morning. This office is for the accommo- dation of the railway companies which form junction there.
 Those HTerrible" stories.-Having, as it were, abandoned their hope of verdict in their favor, Hilton and his disciples in filth, seem to have turned their whole at tention and power to effect disagreement of the jury, by various influences outside the court room, the last of which is story | of druggist who suddenly remembers to l have sold MT. Beecher poison, and of two workmen seeing Mr. Beecher and Mrs. Til ton in criminal intercourse. The filthy sto- ] ries are published in the New York Herald, SO recently famous for it's statement of wild animals loose in New York city. Tilton's lawyers say they shall take no action on these reports. The fact is; it was put
  time in the trial, and was so poorly ''put up," as to be of no avail or profit to the conspirators.
 Pleasant Excursions.-Sup't Beach of the Naugatuck railroad, and Sup't Hubbell of the Bridgeport Steamboat company are arranging for a series of excursions to take place this summer, the first one to be given probably about the last of this month. The steamer Laura, which will be used for the excurslons, is now in the dry dock under going repairs. The boat is to be thorough ly overhauled and painted. Two of the projected excursions will be to Savin Rock, another to Glen Cove, l.. l., and probably one down the Sound to New York bay. and one up the Hudson river. If the managers of the Housatonic road should also arrange for an excursion down it's road, and de- lightful sail down the harbor, putting the price for the round trip at low figure, we think there is no question whatever of it's proving paying experiment.
 Delightful Seaside sort-lf you arc not going to Martha's Vineyard this sum- ! mer, then where are you going? There is probably uo watering place in the country that possesses so many really attractive and desirable features as Oak Bluffs, Mar tha's Vineyard; and the first visit is almost sure to be followed by the second, third, and so on indefinitely. To describe the beauties and attractions of the place, is be- yond the scope of our pen, nought but a visit will suffice for full justice. Excursion tickets are now sold, and will be through the season, from Hartford to the Vineyard and return, for the low price of seven dol lars for the round trip. A few days spent there, the hotels giving the best accommo- dations at reasonable figure or if you choose on your arrival, walk along the fine ly paved streets among the cottages till you see one placarded Rooms to rent" and at a very cheap price take your rooms there, and your meals at the neighboring eating rooms, which are managed expressly for the accommodation of the cottagers, and enjoy yourself Gas you never vas before" " The delightful sails on the broad Atlantic, the fishing parties in smacks, bathing, mar row gauge railroad to various parts of the island, ramble among the diminutive oaks, d-well-everything that is charm ing, is richly worth the journey there. We know we are doing favor to those who contemplate trip to the seaside, whether it be short or prolonged trip, to ask them with much earnestnest, to thSnE of Martha's Vineyard. To Hartford by the Conn. Western road, thence to Providence by Hartford, Providence S Fishkill road. and take the car at Providence placarded ''New Bedford" to New Bedford, and a two hours sail across Buzzard's bay in the steamer to the Vineyard, is the route. Re- member, the round trip from Hartford is only $7.OO.
 Lime Rock.-For some weeks past. the people of Lime Rock, or at least thet DOT tioh of them interested in turf matters, have been making trotting park in one of the , fields short distance from the hotel. The track is laid out by civil engineer, and
 
 . principles. It is now SO nearly completed
 as to admit of practice, and the several
 dashing steeds owned in the place, whose time records are from 2. 10, up, are daily seen there in spirited contests. This track IS said to be the best, without exception ot any in this region, and a trainer is employed
 to instruct the animals to do "their leye I best" on the most approved plan.... MT , Landlord RowleY is giving more than sat ? isfaction to his numerous transient ani e permanent guests, and is enjoying the re
