Affection.


 PLANv1LLE, Feb. 21, 1881.
 The sudden death a few days since of bright little girl of G. D. and Mary G. Clark by spasmodic croup is a peculiarly sad one, and one that calls forth hearty sympathy from this community. Mir. and Mrs. Clark left Plainville six weeks ago in company with two of their children to spend few months in the southern part of Florida The health of Mir. Clark was such that his physicians ad- vised him to try the balmy atmosphere of that climate The reports of a great inn provement in his health will be pleasure to his many friends. Mir. Clark IS the junior partner of the firm of Clark & Cowles. Death of a Welt K nown Bridgeport Man.
 MT. Henry Buckingham, a prominent Bridgeport man, aged 49, was attacked two weeks ago with the rupture of blood vessel in the brain and died last Sunday morning. His illness produced general paralysis of the body and the faculty of speech. The Farmer says: ''Mr Buckingham was vide ly known in Bridgeport, and to large extent throughout the western part of the State. He came to this ely from Brookfeld in 1851, and entered the employ of Captain Hinman, proprietor of the City Hotel After remain ing in this position for two years he bought out, in company with ex-Sheriff Lewis, da- guerreotype gallery at the corner of Main and State streets. This business he relinauished in 1851, when with MT. Bristol as partner he became the proprietor of the City Hotel, suc- ceeding Captain Hinman, his former en- ployer. Mir. Bristol withdrew some two years later, and thereafter MT. Buckingham continued the sole proprietor almost contin- uously until his retirement from the business and the closing of the building as hotel in the spring of 1874. During the year 1868 he sold out the business to a Mr. Hodge but subsequently, took possession of it, and in the last two or three years previous to his retirement had as a partner MT. F. E. Bristol, the well known music teacher, and the brother of the original partner. As a hotel manager MT. Buckingham was capable and highly popular. At one time he was as- sociated with Mir. George A. Hubben in the real estate business, but for the last few years has carried on the saloon business at the corner of Wall and Water streets, in part nership with Mir. Daniel Lucey. He was member of St. Johns Lodge F. & A. M., and of Hamilton Commandery K. T., and occu- pied place in the Common Council for sev- eral terms

Watch Dogs Gagged by Burglars.
 NEW YORK, Feb 21.-Burglars forced an entrance into the iewelry store of Henry Walther, on Newark avenue, Jersey City, last night They climbed over the iron grated door that guards the glass door in the front, and then through fanlight. They made their way to the rear of the safe and were busy forcing hole through the back of it when the barking of two watch dogs disturb ed them. Opening the rear door of the store, they whistled the dogs in from the yard, forced gags into their mouths, and chained them to a post in the store. Then they re- sumed their operations on the safe, but were after all frightened away before they had se- cured anything of value.
