LOCAL AFFAIRS.
SPRING ELECTIONS. —Ihc spring elec
tions this year take place on Friday, 21st
March. There is we think but little dis
position, with the exception peril ps of ul
tra politicians, to embark in party nomina
tions; and we therefore suggest that a Un
ion Meeting of our citizens be held in
the Town Ilall on Tuesday evening, 18th
March, for the purpose of agreeing upon
or nominating a ticket irrespective ot par
ty so far as borough officers are concerned,
leaving each party to choose its own can
didates for Judges and Inspectors of Elec
tions. All present indications are that we
will be in the midst ot great and impor
tant military movements by that time; bat
tics will be fought, and, we have an abid
i:ig faith, victories won for our glorious flag,
j-i which probably our brave and patriotic
sddiers from this county —numbering near
ly a rcgiuicnt— will participate, and even
while we would be wrangling as to who
should be Burgess or Councilman, news
might come that this one has been slain or
that one wounded. Let our citizens then
put aside party feeling for these small offi
ces, nominate and elect good men to fill
them; and when peace is once more re
stored, it will be time enough to revive par
ty feeling.
PAY YOUR IAXES.—No greater folly
can be committed by any class of peo
ple than to leave taxes accumulate against
them, and if they have heretofore escaped
experiencing the evil effects of such a
course, the present and a Jew succeeding
years will probably awaken them from the
ilea that they have derived benefit through
it. By the last auditor's report it appears
that the collectors of 1800 arc indebted
nearly S2OOU, while of 1801 over 810,000
are uncollected. The duplicates of 1862
are also now out, and it is quite probable
that Congress will impose a government
rax which will also have to be met Now
here is a pretty mess for these dilatory gen
tleuien to meet — three faxes to be jut id in
our i/rar On the tax of 18G0, the trcas
virer is instructed to charge the collectors
interest from the first day of May last,
(with a chance that the Sheriff will
wait on them,) on the outstanding of 1801
he will charge interest on the Ist day of
May next, and in the meanwhile the tax
o! will be collected with more than
ordinary energy. Our readers wc hope
who are in arrears will therefore turn ovct
a new rule. Let them pay off" the old tax
t-3 at once, and then if they cannot raise
the money for that of 1862 before the Ist
! June, borrow it and save thes percent,
lhat five per cent, will pay interest for ten
months, before which time they can cer
tainly repay it. By doing so, they will
avoid unpleasant dunning, sleep better, and
fed easier.
DEATH OF A SOLDIER.—The remains
oi \\ uj. Gallagher, son of" Mr. It. Galla
gher, residing near Strode 'a Mills, a mem
ber of ('apt. Zollinger's company, 49fh
I'ennsvlvania liegiment, were taken home
on I rid.iv last, and interred at McVeytowr.
"ii Saturday, in the presence ©fa large
number of sympathizing friends, and also
o* the Sleuimer Guards, who paid the last
tribute of respect to one who had gone to
kght the battles of his country, but had
taken a victim to disease. He was a young
man, but 22 years of ago, and highly es
teemed.
RANDOM FACTS.—John Weber, who
Was wounded in the thigh at the fight at
Graiusville, returned home on furlough on
Thursday a week. The horses attached
t° E. E. Locke's carriage, ran away one
last week, near the junction of the old
an 1 new pike this side of the forge, break
ng up the carriage and throwing out Mr.
R-t who was somewhat bruised on the
shoulder.- An alarm of fire was raised
n triduy morning last by the burning of
**' Mahauey's chimney, which communica
el ® re to the roof of the house. It was
800u ext ioguished, though at one time
presenting a dangerous appearauce in con
"SGjuence of the high wind prevailing at
the time.. The Henderson Hose Reel
•i.'ain got out of order on Friday last from
the weakness of the springs. The ma
chine is good enough for show, but never
Wl 'l be worth anything until sufficiently
lengthened to bear the weight of the
e Rev. Mr. Klink, of Ohio, deliv
ered an excellent sermon in the Lutheran
Church on Sunday last. The weather
put on a wintry appearance on Monday cv
ening, a few inches of hail having fallen,
followed by a light covering of snow. Not
withstanding this, the blue birds are us
merry as could be desired, their pleasing
notes being heard on all sides. A few
private ice houses were in whole or partly
filled last week, but the chances of the riv
er freezing and giving Cubbison a supply
are daily becoming less.
RELIEF FOR THE SOLDIERS.—W# have
several times chronicled the reception of
articles of comfort, &c. from the ladies of
this place, sent to our soldiers in the field
as well as strangers in sundry hospitals,
and to day add another contribution to the
sufferers at tort Donclson. In answer to
a letter of inquiry, Miss Adams, Secretary
of the St. Louis Union Aid Society, ad
dressed the following reply to Mrs. Eliza
beth Hoffman :
l"ur feelings of sympathy and patriotism
are fully reciprocated by every loyal heart, I
trust, and there is something cheering among
all these stormy days, to see mankind
ing to love each other truer and better. It is
wonderful to see the load of selfishness that
is lifted from hearts, and to see loyal hands
busily employing ail their time in doing some
thing for their country's brave defenders.
In behalf of the Ladies' Union Aid Society
of this city, I will say, anything you may
consign to us will be appropriated for the ben
efit of the sick and wounded in our hospital,
or if not needed here will be sent wherever
demanded, as we are constantly kept inform
ed of destitute points by Committees sent for
the express purpose; and I will here sav, ev
ery one of the articles you mention are of
immediate necessity, and will be very accep
table.
'• We have about GOO of the wounded from
I'ort Donelson brought in, and still more to
enme. Every effort is being made to make
them comfortable and insure a speedy recov
ery, and wo leel deeply indebted to our friends
in the east for the aid they are rendering us
in this work."

Instructions in Preparing Claims for
Soldiers' Pay.
To enable those who may have claims
upon die I nited States, for moneys due
deceased officers and soldiers, on account
of military services rendered, whether in
the regular or volunteer service, to obtain
the same with the least delay, the follow
ing information is furnished :
ORDER OF PATMEXT.
Order First —lf the deceased is married,
payment will bo made—lst. to the widow ; 2d,
if no widow, to his child, or children; (if
minors, to the guardian.)
Order Second —lf he died unmarried—
-Ist, to the father; 2d. if the father is dead, to
the brothers and sisters, collectively ; lastly,
to the heirs generally—(to be distributed iii
accordance with the laws of the State in which
the deceased had his domicile )
APPLICATION, PROOF AND AUTHENTICATION.
Application. —The claimant or claimants
must make a written application, undr oath,
and over his, her, or their own signature, sti
ting his, her. or their name, age, residence,
connection to the deceased, with the letter or
namo of the captaiu of the company and reg
iment to which he belonged attimeof hisdeath
and the nature of the pay claimed—-whether
'• arrears of pay," &c ; and the "5100 bounty "
under the act of July 22d, 1861
Proof.— To satisfy the accounting officers
that the person or persons thus claiming is
or are entitled to the money in the character
he, she, or they claim, the depositions of two
credible witnesses will be required, stating
that they are acquainted with the claimant
or claimants, tho connection held to the de
ceased, and that they (the deponents) are
disinterested. marriage (record
evidence, if possible) must always accompany
the applications of those claiming to be the

commissioned and acting in his official capac
ity at the time of the execution of the forego
ing papers.
Administration. —As the taking out of" let

dier after his claim has been acted upon.
W here "pay Certificates" have beeD withheld,
he must send all other papors given to him
at the time of his discharge, together with
the affidavit of his captain that no "Pay Cer
tifieates" were given to him, and the reasons

siness of the office will allow.

British 'Humanity' in War.
In 1857 the natives of British India,
whose grounds of discontent with their
Government, unlike those of the Southern
rebeds, were substantial and greivous, rose
in arms to strike for their freedom. The
British Government, at first unsuccessful
in its struggles with the rebellion, at length
gathered up its energies and put them down.
How it dealt with the prisoners of war ta
ken in fight is well remembered. The fol
lowing extracts from British journals con
tain a narrative of a couple of executions:
' A late mail from India brought accounts
of two such executions. On the 12th
June, at Pashawar, forty men were tried,
convicted, and sentenced to be blown lrom
the guns. The execution was a dreadful
sight. Three sides of a square were form
ed by British troops, and in the centre ten
guns were planted, pointing outward. In
dread silence the decree of the court was
read, and this ceremony being concluded,
a prisoner was bound to each gun, his back
placed against the muzzle and his arms
fastened firmly to the wheels. The signal
is now given, and the salvo fired. The
discharge of course cute the body in two;
and the human trunk, head, legs and arms
may be seen for an instant flying about in
all directions A9 there were only ten
guns used on this occasion, the mutilated
remains had to be removed four times. —
All of these forty criminals met their fate
with firmness, with the exception ot two,
and, to save time they were dropped to the
ground, and their brains blown out by mus
ketry.
' Another execution of a similar nature
took place on the 13th of June, at Feroze
poor. All the available troops and public
establishments were convened to witness
the scene. Some of the mutineers were
to be hung, and around the gallows, erected
during the night previous, the soldiers were
drawn up. The mutineers were then
brought into the centre, and the proceed
ings of the general court martial was read.
Upon being informed that if they Would
become Queen's evidence they would bo
reprieved, twelve of the criminals accept
ed the offer and were marched to the
rear. Two were taken to the gallows.—
They ascended the ladder with firm
steps, and to the last moment betrayed no
emotion of fear.
4 The remaining ten were led away to
the artillery guns, and while their irons
were being struck oft cried, 4 Do not sacri
fice the innocent for the guilty !' Two
others rejoined, ' Hold your sniveling; die
men and not cowards—you defended your
religion, why then do you crave your lives?
Sahibs! they are not Sahibs, they are dogs!'
Others then began to upbraid their com
manding officer. The wretched beings
were quickly fastened to the muzzles of
ten guns, charged with bLnk cartridge.—
The commanding officer directed port fires i
to be lit, 1 Ready ! Fire !' and the drama
was played out. An eye witness says:— ;
' The scene and stench were overpowering. '
I felt myself terribly convulsed, and could
observe that the numerous na'ive spectators ;
were awe stricken—that they not only
trembled like aspen leaves, but also chang- 1
cd into unnatural hues. Precaution was
not taken to remove the sponge and load
men from the muzzles of the guns; and
the consequence was they were greatly be
spattered with blood, and one man in par
ticular received a stunning blow from a
shivered arm
In connection with the British protest
against the stone blockade, on the ground
of humanity, these reminiscences are in
structive.
1 he discovery of fossil bones of a
new and gigantic saurian, in a cutting re
cently made for a railway near Poligny, has
just been announced. The animal must
have been between 90 and 120 feet in
length, and must have existed towards the
end of the Triassio period.
Hie Democrat says all the democratic
contractors arc honest and upright! This is
peculiarly refreshing news after perusing the
list of State defaulters published ut Harris
burg last week.
