Myer Strat*‘ . iiip Congressman, on the subject, atareceived in reply that the liability to draft is between 20 and 45 and that the commutation paid last fall is soroneyenr. Such is the law. Alipost every School District in this county is now making the most Itrenuous exertions to raise money, and men as substitutes, to avoid the draft into •which our fatherly • President has just forced us. The plan generally pursued for the Direotors'of a district to appro priate, 'on the credit,of the township, $3OO for each of the quota, .ati. authorized ' by the General Bounty Law of the last Leg- Jujetqke,.and to'raise by subscription what addPional sums may be required, to ob tain'subititutes to fill the quota. Thus every district. will be saddled with a debt of $15,000 to $50 : 000 according to the number of men to be furnished. Is •fhe-game worth the powder:? A•daily mail is now sent over ths.Polumbis railrod from Sinking Springs `to Fritztown, Ephrata, Litiz, Manheim, I Landisville, Silver Springs and Columbia. A friend from one of the agri cultural sections of this county, told us the other day, that his neighbors, a ma jority of whom have always heretofore been• with the opposition, are now nearly 'unanimously in favor of PEACE, and that if the Chicago Convention will adopt a PEACE platform and nominate a good, honest and capable man, that they will vote for him. .They are tired of the war, of Abe Lincoln, despise the war platform of the Convention which nominated him, and the only hope they see for the people and the country is in the Democracy. our Informant is a reliable ana intelligent gentleman, and he only repcirts, a 'feeling in his'titVn section which we know Is prevalitit'in litany others. The Ant Trap.—As the - season 'is at hand for tbose peak the ants, house. *Ayes and others who are troubled with `there, may probabty -use the following trap to advantage Proenre a large Sponge, wash it well and press it dry, which will leave the cells quite open ; then sprinkle over it some fine white sugar, and place it near where the ants are troublesome. They will soon collect upon the sponge and up their abode in the cells. it Is then only necessary to dip the sponge in sdading water, which will wash them out dead by tens of thousands. Then put on snore sugar, and set the trap for a new haul. Tbls process will soon clear the house of every aunt, uncle and prog eny. The Democracy of Bainyikill county held Their convention on Monday of last week, and nominated the following ticket, • - - ' Congress—Eon. My.r Stromlo. State , Bona tor—William R. Randall. Ilisprimentativea—Joshua Boyer,MiclizieVirenc ac, Jan Donner.. - t • a elrarifillstmet Koran: Clomnilssioner.Dodd Foley. Director or the Poor—R. O. Wilson. Auditor—John Leibig. The ratification of Lebanon county is required to make Mr. Strouse the notni nee of the party in the district. As lie will, no doubt, obtain it, his 'triumphant election is a foregoneconctusion. Schuyl kill county gave last fall over 2000 ma jority for the Democracy, and will do in finitely better this fall. Lebanon county luta been dwindling down yearly from the WOO majority given for Old Abe in 1860, and we Shonld not lie surprised if it would be as many below their regular majority this yiar as it was then a bove it. There are muttering of no little significance in Their ranks. A storm is brewing. Let the abolitionists and war- Ites stand from under. BROWN'S BRONCHIAL TRocliEs.— This Universal Remedy for Coughs, Colds, and Bronchial affections now stands the Arst in , public favor and confi dence ; this result has been acquired by a test of thirteen years. Its merit and ex tensive use has caused the Troches to be counterfeited, and we would caution pur chasers to hi on their guard against worthless imitations. To Arms ! To Arms !—The Citizen Soldier will dud a mere deadly fett-in the brackish, mud dy seater and damp night air than in the moat determined enemy. HOLLOWAY'S' PILLS so purify .the blood and strengthen the stomach and bowels that the soldier ean endure those hardships and stilrbe strong and healthy.

MOSQUITOES, sa - y. somebody, love beef blood better than they do any that flows in human vein's._ Just put a couple of generous pieces 'on plates near your bed at night, and 'yob will sleep untroubled by these pests.
