Boat Cnae

Some time since @ cat-rgged boat worth $2OO was stolen from Ebert Hart of North port, L. I. MT. Hart had circulars printed and sent out offering a reward for the recov- cry of his property. One of these circulars fell into the hands of Captain James Austin ot this city. One day last week man in formed MT. Austin that he knew of boat in Guilford which answered the description of the lost boat. MT. Austin at once communi- cated with Mir. Hart, who came to Guilford and identified his boat. The boat was in the possession of James Rogers, who was arrest ed for burglary at Robert Bartholomew's house in Guilford, September 27 and tried and convicted in the Superior Court last week and sentenced to four years in State prison. c. T. Driscon, who defended Rogers, has at tached the boat for counsel fees, as Rogers claimed the boat to be his. All the parties interested are endeavoring to make settle ment.

General Grant Under Fire.

New Haven spectators speak in high terms of the beauty of the display at Hartford, on Saturday, when General Grant was escorted to the depot. The procession passed for blocks between grand discharge of rockets and Roman candles and colored fires from both sides of the street. The fine carriage in which the hero of the Appomatox Court House rode was drawn by four splendid hor- ses. It was, perhaps, to the skill of the dri- yer that the team did not add a runaway to the scene, as the sparks fell in showers on the carriage and horses. Patterson, who was with General Grant, looked little anxious and brushed of the sparks, but Grant sat as quiet and unconcerned as one could imagine It was easy to see that he had been ''under fire'' before

Funeral in Westvi1le.

The funeral of Miss Laura w. Merriman, a beloved and esteemed young lady, and daugh- ter of MT. Charles G. Merriman, of Vest vile, took place yesterday afternoon from the residence of MT. Merriman attended by a large number of afflicted and deeply sympa- thizing friends, including members of the corps of teachers of the Division street school at which the deceased had been a teacher. and other co-workers in the public schools of the city and Westville. The Rev. Messrs. Willard of Westville, and Putnam of Whitneyville, where MT. Merriman and family formerly resided, officiated in the last sad ceremonies. Beautiful floral designs graced the room wherein the sleeper lay, and the sadness of the hour was increased by the knowledge of the fact that sister of the de- ceased young lady was still very i'll with the same disease, typhoid fever. The deceased was not thought to be critically i'll until the day before her death, when the disease took an unfavorable turn and she sank rapidly Her many estimable qualities of mind and heart had endeared her to large circle of friends.
