TRUMBULL.

Two of our esteemed young ladies were made wiser, last week, while taking a drive over Daniels Farms streets to en- joy the view of the Sound, which all passers-by gaze on with delight. The soft earth allowed the carriage to sink nearly to the body and the noble horse had come to a standstill, being unable for a brief time to get the occupants any further, but with considerable effort reached safe ground at last. While one Uf the young ladies let down the bars on the roadside, the other held the spirited horse by the bridle, they drove through the meadows and reached home safely, longing for some improvement on the road, as do others who have occasion to go that way.
 The young ladies are preparing for an entertainment to be given in the Tow n hall soon. Watch for the date. A good time is assured.
