M. n. COBB, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. WEM.SBOROUGE, BSKN’A* WEDNESDAY, : : : JANUARY 20, 1864. TATTELL QOTELXj. . The task of the novelist-biographer may be pleasant; but that of the biographer of a liv ing individual is one of great difficulty. On the one hand there is danger of being over come by personal, favor to (be subject, and on the other, that in trying to be impartial, one may so easily be unjust. Some may have hoard of the man who stood so erect that he leaned backward. The name at the head of this article never pertained to any person hy birth or baptism ; nor can it be said to pertain to any one mem ber of any community. It, rather, stands for the genius of most small villages, and may not fail of application to the genius which pre sides over the domestic matters of rural neigh borhoods. True it is, that we have never yet entered a neighborhood that we did not meet with Tatell Gotell. Being sexless, the subject of this notice must find pronominal expression in it. This, as all will readily comprehend, is embarassing. But there is no help for it. Tattell Gotell is of the common gender, (see Murray, Brown & Co.) third person, plural number, and overwhelm ingly in the—accusative. The first time we met with Tattell Gotell, according to the best of recollection, was du ring the years that lie between the tender ages of six and eight. We remember it well. It entered the house one morning in the early summer, clad in shilling calico not'over tidy, and a green “ calash” bonnet. If professed to be in a great hurry, having only left the dishes unwashed at home to run over and see if "your folks” had beard tba news. It always knew that Miss Jones would stretch the—truth, but “ never would nv b’lieved" that she would tell lies out of whole cloth. Miss Jones had told Mary Smith that Lucy Johnson said that “your folks” worked Saturday nights, though they .pretended, tn toop thom very strict. Mary Smith told Lucy Johnson what Miss Jones said she said, and Lucy got mad as fire and said that Miss Jones was the allfiredest liar in Sodom. So Mary Smith went over to Miss Joneses and told her what Lucy Johnson said. Then Miss Jones flared up and said that she never told Lucy Johnson “no sich a thing;” and that anyway there was some things about that hussy that “ wouldn’t bear tellin,” but that she. Miss Jones, could make her, Lacy, " sbet her head” pretty quick, if she “ was a mind to.” This was prclty much Greek to onr untu tored mind; but it turned out that the neigh borhood was in for a six months rumpus, and that "Miss Jones” got her knowledge of the 1 alleged breach of Saturday nights from no oth er than Tattell Gotell. From that time vre watched the course of Tattell Gotell with considerable fidelity. One j fine morning in winter Miss Isabel Prim, the j school-ma’am, and Mrs. Deacon Snooks awoke to find themselves famous. Tattell had dis covered Tom Tiddler tying Miss Prim’s shoe, and straitway declared, with a mysterious air, that Mies Prim “ was no better than she should be.” Tattell also insinuated in all the neigh bors’ houses that if Mrs. Deacon Snaokses face was red and _ blotchy, “ there was good reason for it." There might be some folks who called it “ arrysipulds,". but " arrysipuius did not make one’s breath “ smell like an old cider barrel.” Tattell bad seen Mrs. Deacon Snook see nose in the big white pitcher for five min utes at a time; so long, in fact, that it seemed as if “ she could hold her breath forever.” These insinuations were not long in reaching their objects. And such a hubbub as they raised may we never hear again. Both Miss Prim and Mrs. Snooks were members of the church of course; and the hubbub raged until both were “ hauled over the coals." Investi gation proved that Tom Tiddler bad performed the very cheap courtesy of lacing Mias'Prim’s shoe, and that Mrs, Deacon Snooks had only drank a glass of egg-nogg with Parson Toby —and that Tattell Gotell, though present, and hankering after a glass of the same, bad not been invited to imbibe. The upshot of the af fair was the expulsion of Tattell from the neighborhood for a month or two, and a sea son of peace and good feeling for the same length of time. But even the locust has its periodical return, and Tattell Gotell could, no more be extin guished than the whooping-cough. It re turned to that neighborhood, and, being übi quitous, appeared in every other neighborhood at the same time. ITo remember, of Tattell’s notable deeds, one in particular. The people ofitbe neighborhood in which wo happened to reside wanted a teacher. One was recommen ded to their consideration by friends living at a distance. . Uo was sent for, stared at, lis t.eqCd. to„ and. discussed Urn usual time„an4da THE TIOGA COUNTT AGITATOR. dared to be “ tbo eery thing"—a most remark* able person altogether. He was engaged. Ha came, and brought his family. For a season he was exalted to the skies. “ "Was there'ever each a man ?” “ Never.” ... But this coaid not last forever. Tattell Qo tell went a ecavengarlng and made a discot* ery. Tattell gloated- over the discovery and filled the neighborhood with amazement. Tat tcll discovered that the now teacher end his wife were human; that they were not angels; that Mr. Duncan drank coffee and ate beef steak, and that Mrs. Duncan drank coffee, and “mebba.sathm else;" that though both were the public's humble servants, they rather de sired to preserve their identity, to hove some privacy, in short—to remain human, while in the body, at least. This horrible perversity shocked Tattell Gotell more than words could express. So Tattell swore a great oath that if the Duncans would not meekly become " nobody,” then they should be made uncom fortable. Therefore Tattell whispered to Big ginsea wife, who whispered to Digginses wife, who whispered to Higginses wife, who whis pered to Wigginses wife, who whispered to *■ Pigginses wife and grown-up darters," who, altogether, pretty much murdered the peace of poor Mrs. Duncan with their doll baby, kitten fanged gossip. The fact was—if th e Duncans would have submitted to being plundered of their identity and everything else they oonld have lived in peace to the end of their iimo. But they lacked foresight, and suffered the con sequences. And the rest of the doings of Tattell Go tell—shall they be written ? Who has not seen Tattell, and huw few have gone unscathed of Tattell’a fangs ? But because Tattell flourishes most the righteous mourn 1 Even roses have thorns, and fire burns the rash child that tri fles with the brand. Yet roses are sweet and beautiful, and, fire is a glowing comfort. So, the world is a tolerable world, ofilleted as it is with the tongue of Tattell Gotell. WAR NEWS. The United States Steamship Vanderbilt, Copt. Baldwin, arrived at Sandy Hook late on Saturday night from her long and unsuccessful cruise in search of the pirate Alabama. Richmond papers of the 15th inst. were re ceived on Saturday at Fortress Monroe. They contain telegrams from Charleston as late as Thursday last, when the bombardment was progressing witli increased fury, several new Parrots having been opened upon the city from Fort Gregg. During the two days preceding the date of the dispatch, 471 shells had been fired at tho place, but with what effect is not mentioned. The telegrams report the number of vessels at Hilton Hoad to be very large, and say that a fleet has recently gone south ward. Mo shy is reported to have been badly whipped in the recent affair at Harper's Ferry, but notwithstanding his losses, be is said to be still harassing our men. , Admiral Lee has officially reported the des truction of tho new firat-olaeo Robot steamer Dave. This was the vessel’s first trip ; and oh tho 7th inst., finding it impossible to escape falling a prize to our blockaders off Wilming ton, her captain ran her ashore, when she bilged, becoming a total wreck. The Dave is the twentieth steamer destroyed or captured off Wilmington since July last. Reports from the Army of the Potomac rep resent the greatest discontent and hopelessness of the cause Co exist in tho Rebel lines. Our troops are in fine condition and spirits, and the weather excellent. Some stir on the part of the enemy has given rise to the belief that they meditate a new movement. Dispatches from St. Louis on Saturday state that the Ku&els in Arkansas are suffering severely from the cold, and that deserters are coming into the Union lines in large numbers, declaring that they believe the Rebel cause to be lust. A fight between part of Col. McCook's cav alry and the Btb and 11th Texas Regiments, at Mossy Creek, Tenn., occurred on the 12th. Fourteen of the Rebels were killed aod 41 prisoners taken. The Memphis papers contradict the stories of Rebel successes in Arkansas, such as the cap ture of Fiue Bluff, &o. They are all fictions. AM AWFUL CALAMITY. -It is fortunately not nften*hat mankind is called upon to mourn a calamity so horrible as that which occurred on the eighth of Decern* her, in Santiago, 'the capital of Cbili. A church, crowded to overflowing, caught fire? the chief door, opening inside, was soon closed by the press; all egress was consequently pre vented, and nearly two thousand people, mostly women, and representing nearly every family in Santiago, were burned to death. ■Whether the, account of the disaster which we take from The Valparaiso Mercury, is in ev ery detail correct, we are, nf course, unable to ascertain ; bat it leaves little doubt that the origin of the conflagration was owing to. tho most culpable recklessness, A priest of the church was determined fs' have a celebration in the most splendid style, exceeding all that Santiago had ever seen. Twenty thousand lights, in long festoons of colored globes, filled tho church, with gause and drapery of every description. Every corner of the building, from tho ground to the ceiling, and especially about tho altar, was a sea of muslin and dra pery, flooded with every kind of illumination. The church which was filled with so much combustible material had a roof of painted wood, and only one door of easy access, and this one opening inside. Of course, this chief door became at once blocked up; while the fire, in consequence of the numerous lights and plentiful drapery, spread so rapidly as to burn, in less than fifteen minutes, about two thousand persons to blackened corpses. In many of the cities both of the New and the Old World, a similar catastrophe would probably have led to '‘terrible popular outbreaks against those who, by their lack of caution and superintendence, were clearly to bo blamed for it. The people of Santiago contented them selves with demanding the- demolition of the , building, which has, moreover, a sad notoriety ■ for the number of accidents that in former times have occured in it. The priests strenu ously opposed the • populas.demand, and even I threatened eclcsiastionl censures; but the Go v! Moment considered U necessary to yield tp; the. popular pressure, and to decree the demolition of the building'. Bush an oceuranoe should arouse attention to the necessity of strict regulations for the police of churches, schools and public and pri vate -buildings everywhere. Many improve ments have of late been made in this respect by. the legislatures of most civilized countries; bat how much still remains to be done ? bow many disasters ora still recorded from year to year which a stricter legislation about the prop er condition of buildings would have averted ? The terrible disaster in Chili calls for a thor ough examination and revision of legislation, wherever it is needed to overt such appalling calamities.— Trihunc, A Peculiar Institution in lowa.— Among the curious phases of lowa society is the A manna Society," located in lowa county, twen ty miles west of lowa city. Prom the Musca tine Journal wo glean the following facts rela tive to to this community. It says; * It numbers 800 members, and is divided into seven villages. It is governed by trust ees elected by the members of the society. The society owns 20,000 acres of land in one belt. They have a large stock of horses, sheep and cattle; 700 head of cattle, 12,000 head of sheep, and a large number of horses; also 2,- 200 acres of land under cultivation. They are engaged to some extent in manufacturing, and have a good flouring and saw milt and a large woolen factory In successful operation. They oard, spin, weave and full all kinds of wollon goods, tunning twelve looms, nine narrow, and three for weaving broadcloth. Their-machin ery is of. the most perfect kind.

Tub Retubn or Senator White. —We have good authority for stating that Senator White will, in all probability, soon resume his seat in the State Senate. The terms of his exchange 1 hare been determined, and it is not unlikely that he will be in Harrisburg in the course of a week. His return will end the power of the Opposition to suspend legislation, and defeat measures necessary to the people of Pennsyl vania. The satisfactory termination of the dispute by the release of a brave soldier from a rebel prison, is doubly gratifying. His free dom will be due to the energy of the Govern ment, and Pennsylvania will uot forget this great service to her interests. But what shall we think Of n party which owes its defeat to the liberation of a Union soldier, and would profit by the continuance of his captivity?— Philadelphia Press. Ice fob Difthebia. — A correspondent of tho Providence Journal vouches for tho efficacy of ice as a cure for diptheria, croup, and all or dinary inflammation of the throat. The man ner of application is as follows: “Breakup a small lump .of ice, and put the pieces in a bowl. Take a position slightly inclined back wards, either in a chair or on a sofa. Proceed to feed yourself with small lumps of ice, let ting them dissolve slowly in the back part of the throat. A single application will often break up a common sore throat, which other wise Would have a course of two or three days. In case of a bad sore throat, use the ice fre qacntly and freely. In case of ulceration or diptheria, keep a small lump of ice constantly in the mouth.” A Valuable Faria for Sale, VERY CHEAP.
