A Night Scene-Street Difficulty.

On Saturday night, little before eleven o'clock, the attention of a man standing at the corner of State and Edwards streets WAS attracted by boy who asked him for pro- lection from young fellow who was pur- suing him. The man responded, taking the part of the petitioner This interference was resented by 'the gang'' to which the fellow belongs, and the boys protector seem cd likely to get into trouble, when Officer Collett appeared. The officer arrested the young scamp who had been pursuing the boy, and was taking him of when voIleys of stones were discharged at the officer by the gang, who also so beset the officer and assailed him that he felt obliged to let his prisoner go, after calls for help which were not answered

Parallel Road.

At meeting of the directors of the New York, Connecticut and Eastern Railroad Company, or, as it is better known, the Par allel road, held last week in this city, con- mittee was appointed to call the Railroad Commissioners together to inspect the re- gently completed maps of the line of the road in this State. It is probable that this week day will be fixed for the Commission CTS to meet at the Railroad Company's ofice But first the law reads that all owners of land over which the road will pass must be noti- fled to attend the meeting. There are 300 lots or farms on the proposed line and about 900 people having rights on the property. Perhaps it will be arranged so that those who have settled and agreed about their land with the road need not appear, and if so the con testing parties only will appear, who are few D number.

A party came from this city last Saturday morning about o'clock and made night hid eous with their shouts and rappings on the doors of two three saloons to make the proprietors open for them, but were not re- warded with success, the proprietors doing no business at unreasonable hours. Deputy Sheriff Peck, hearing the noise, got up out of his bed and appeared among the night prowl- CTS, and made them take their hacks and leave without delay for their homes.

Narrow Escape from DrOzvming-An
 Accident tn East Haven River.


 Narrow Escape from DrOHvming-An-
 Accident in East Haven River.
 Saturday afternoon about three o'clock Mir. Humphrey Holden, a man about 50 years of age, who is employed in fishing and clam ming, was going up the East Haven river in a skif. The water was running very rapidly, the current being strong, and MT. Holden in managing his skif headed it, as he thought, right to pass under the bridge and through the gates, and was in the act of sitting down when one end of the boat, as he supposes, struck the bridge, and he lost his balance and fell overheard. He clung to the oar which he had in his hand The spot of the accident was where young Pardee was drowned last summer. The current carried up MT. Holden and his oar struck it's length against the gate so that the ends rested against either sides of the gate. The current doubled up MT. Holden over the oar so that he was a couple of feet under water. It was a critical moment, but Mir. Holden, in feeling with his feet, struck 8 stone against the side of the stone abutment, which enabled him to raise himself up and get his oead out of the water. His cries for help were heard by MT. Charles Green, who keeps refreshments near the bridge. MT. Green ran, got into his boat and went to MT. Holden's assistance, and seizing him drew him into his boat and res cued him. The promptness and presence of mind of Mr. Green, as well as his humane ac- tion, reflect great credit upon him. Were it not for his timely assistance MT. Holden would in all probability have been drowned. MT. H. had swallowed good deal of water, after being relieved of which he felt much better, and yesterday was all right again.
