Monthly services have been held at the house of MT Honan, Stepney, for about six months, Fathers Donohue and Keu- nedy alternating as celebrants. The ser vices are we'll attended and the rooms are filled to overfiowing; but there are many who do not attend. To reach these and to provide place where the Catholics of the neighborhood can meet to worship, it has been decided to build chapel, capa- ble of seating about 100, in central To- eaton not yet settled upon. The build ing will be put up as soon as the site can be secured and contracts awarded. At first, services will probably be held monthly, as at present; but if, as seems likely, it is found expedient to build a similar chapel at Hawleyvillc, scr, ices would be held at each on every second Sunday. There are about 20 Catholic families, 100 souls,a at or near Stepney and the regular attendance Ut niass would be from 60 to 75. Among these, it would be a comparatively easy matter to pay for building lot and church, the latter being of the simplest description. If small debt were allowed to remain, it could be raised in a short time. Father Donohue is taking much interest in the missions,as well as in St Rose.

It is unders tood that one of the pro visions upon which the bigamy case against Wakeman Beers was nolled in the Super for court, Tuesday, was that his second wife, formerly Miss Isabella McArthur, should be allowed to obtain a divorce and it is said that the petition is already on file on the docket of the Superior court. There would, however, have been difficulty in proving the charge, for the State would have been obliged to show that Beers was aware that his first wife was living when he married Miss McArthur. The records show that he was married to Margaret Duffy (white) June 27, 1859, by Oliver S. Botsford, justice of the peace. He never afterward lived with her and there is legal presumption that q person may be dead when not heard from in seven years. Beers has been ill poor health during his confinement in jail and his Bedding friends will be glad to see him once more. Judge Lockwood was his counsel.

Persian Apologue.

Jesus and his disciples arrived in the evening at the gates of an Eastern city and he sent them forward to prepare sup per and find shelter for the night, while he himself walked through the streets to see what was to be seen. He came to the market place and, seeing q crowd standing at the corner, he approached and found them looking at Il lifeless dog, having halter around it's neck and GOV cred with slime. One said, ssLet us go, he oifends our nostrils; = another, See the halter, he verify has been hanged for sheep-killing third, Look at his ears, how tattered and torn, you could not make even purse from them.r The stranger looked down with compassion and said, stPearls are not equal to the whiteness of his teeth.'' And they all marvelled and said, ssWhat manner of man is this? He must be Jesus of NaZa- reth, for he findeth something good to say of even a dead dog. And they all left him.

Two wrongs do not make a right. This is apropos the sickening spectacle that was enacted at Sandy Hook, a fort night ago. In a certain house, there is domestic discord and the husband, who has been drinking on his way back from church, seizes the lethel poker and smites his beloved spouse. She fees for refuge
 to neighbor's roof. A brutal breach of the peace has been committed, the inhab- itants are naturally shocked and their in- dignation is aroused. Swift punishment is resolved upon by the enraged villagers. A number of impetuous, well meaning youths, unmarried and, therefore, pre- sumably incapable of rightly compre- hending the situation, probably most of them under the influence of Cupid or wanting to be, mask themselves, swoop down upon the offending miscreant, drag him from his home and administer such terrible castigation as to leave him al- most lifeless. Now this is nanifestly all wrong, his brutality notwithstanding. There clear want of restraint on both sides here. All license of this kind should be discouraged and prevented, if possible, by every civilized community. No, it should not be allowed. Two wrongs can never make right; neither should we do evil that good may come. x

A serious defect in the Housatonic's handsome passenger station at Newtown caused an incipient fire, Monday after noon, which, luckily discovered, was cas- fly eXtinguished. Had it gained d brief headway, however, or had it started at night, nothing could have saved the building. It was discovered about , o'clock, Monday afternoon, by Theodore Taylor, who went into the express room, from which the cellar is reached and through which the chimney passes. The smell of smoke was noticeable and has ty examination showed that one of the large floor timbers had become charred through from contact with the chimney and furnace fue and was mass of coals, all but ready to burst into flames. Help was procured, the brick work of the chimney pried away and the coals extin- guished The large square timber run ming through the station, north to south, was,a third of it's thickness, charred to d crisp. It rested directly upon the bricks of the chimney, into which it was set parallel, at the same height, the chimney was entered by the furnace flue. 1t has stood ill that condition since built, eight or nine years ago and the wonder is, not that it was burning now, but that it es- capped SO long. The chimney was care fully watched during the afternoon and railroad carpenter stood guard it night. Tuesday, the damage was repaired by 2 RridopDort mason who re-built part of the chimney, leaving an air passage be- tween the brick and wood; he also changed the fiue, which now enters the chimney about two feet lower than be- fore anu is also provided with check draft.
