Not the Man But His Clothes,

Yesterday afternoon, during the supposed absence of distinguished politician and iurist of this city in Hartford, his office was opened by several of his brother lawyers and friends, who suspected something wrong as bad odors had emanated from the room for several hours On entering their eyes were greeted with what seemed to them horrible spectacle, for right before them, suspended from 8 projection of the ceiling, they saw what appeared to them to be the body of their recent associate hanging by the neck. The shock experienced by all present was so great that no one dared approach the body, but messengers were at once sent to the cor oner, the chief of police, the prosecuting at torney and the town agent, and very soon these officials were on hand. Deputy Jailer- elect Stevens, Constable Enscoe and others were immediately procured to sit on the cor oner's jury. Upon further investigation, however, it was discovered that it was all a hoax and that the body, although decked in the familiar suit of clothes which the attor- ney usually wears, was nothing more than a collection of newspapers judiciously stuffed. Tears were immediately dried and the stern officers of the law acknowledged the corn'' and departed. The means by which the per petrators got possession of the office, and how the suit of clothes was procured, still remains Q mystery.

It is expected that it will be paid school for youth and that a convent will be attached to it.

 T7The bill providing for the annexation of
 Fair Haven to New Haven WAS taken up on motion of Mr. Morris, of New Haven, who
 advocated it's passage. The annexation of
 the borough was favored, he said, both by
 the residents of East Haven and also by pub
 lie sentiment in New Haven. The plan
 would give New Haven entire control of the
 harbor. The bill, if passed. would be sub
 mitted to both towns for their final approval
 MT. Futile, of East Haven, under instruc- tions from his constituents, approved the passage of the measure. His constituents considered it fair and equitable, he said, that
 the bill should be passed and submitted to the people for final ratification. ENr Perry, of Fairfield, in the chair. Mr. TuttIe held that no injustice could be done by the passage of the bill The approv- al Of the borough and town of East Haven as well as that of New Haven must be secured before the act can become operative. In a large town meeting, held at East Haven last Saturday, there had been practical unan- imity in support of the act. Messrs. Chapman of Manchester, and Buckingham of Plymouth, explained the action of the committee in rejecting the pc. tition on the ground that the adverse notice had been irregularly given in the town oi East Haven.
 MT. Skinner, of Andover, was in favor o1 supporting the majority report, because he
 thought that no town should be divided ex' l cept after legal action.
 Mr. Harrison showed that the technical de- feet in the notice should not be considered et any value when the town in a public meet l ing has waived it's claims in regard to the no tice He would not for 8 moment advocate
 the passage of the bill unless he felt that the majority of the people of East Haven de- mand it.
 Mr. Seward, of Putnam, was opposed te the annexation.
 On vote the bill was carried by a large ma jority.
 MT. Baldwin, of Plymouth, called the at tention of the House to the fact that wher l the House adjourned Thursday night the vote on the amendment to the so-called intimida
 ton bill was pending. On his motion the journal was ordered corrected, substituting
 the words the roll being called" for the vote being declared" The vote on the amendment was resumed. After extended remarks by MT. Gum and

An old lady named Catherine Wiener,
who haS been all inmate of the Hospital for
some time. eluded the vigilance of those in
charge yesterday and came down street on
o visit to her friends, but arriving ut the
corner of Seventeenth and Jacob streets
she fell upon the sidewalk and sustained a
fracture Of the hip bone, Her pitiablc con-
dition was not noticed for little time, but
finally two ladies passed by in the carriage
of Samuel Laughlin, Esq, and asCertaininS
the extent OF her injuries they very kindly
got out OF the vehicle and ordered the driver
to take the poor unfortunate to the house
of her daughter, who, She said, lived hard
by.
The negro in charge of the carriage drove
the old lady 10 Eighteenth and Wood
streets TO Mrs. Hasanauer'S who is the
daughter Of the old lady, but he says that
Mrs II. refused to take her in and SON
in-law of Mrs. lIasanauer offered him ten
cents to take her to some other place. She
was finally removed to the Hospital where
she now lies in a critical condition.
Mrs. Wiener the injured lady is over 90
years of age and has been for years 4 charge
upon her friends. So irkSome were the in
firmities OF age and temper that they final
ly had her removed to the Hospital where
she has been for some time, and during
her residence there she was the source of
much trouble. She has one or two other
daughters in this city and all feel very in
dignant at the conduct of the daughter who
refused TO receive her in her extremity.
