INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC. — Mrs. G. A.
Barnes, (wife of Rev. S. Barnes) ari
experienced and successful teacher of
Piano Music, offers to give instructions
on said instrument to a small class of
young ladies, in Lewistown, of which
place she has recently become a resi
dent. She can be seen at the Metho- j
dist parsonage. lino*
THE DRAFT. —We learn that the i
draft is to come off in Pennsylvania :
shortly, and that many districts which ;
from all the information that could be I
obtained wore thought to be secure, ;
now find themselves subject to a heavy
drawback. These deficiencies some
suppose are occasioned through the
draft of last year, but if so it is
singular that they were not made
known before so that the number re
quired could have been furnished. In
this county the books stand as follows:

BODY EXHUMED. —Considerable talk
having been created after the arrest of
a soldier named Gates-(from Milroy)
and another named Latchford last week
of violence having been used towards
McCann, whose death by drowning
we noticed at the time, the coroner's
inquest re-examined the body on Fri
day last, but found no evidence what-
Icver except a slight mark on his fore
bead to confirm any of the stories got
up by the over-curious in such matters.
The testimory went to show that Mc-
Cann left Wertz's tavern at the lock
with a lamp which was set on the
gate of the lock, and that the
party of soldiers were not near him
at the time. It is said he was going
back to the army with much reluctance,
which leads some to suppose that he
committed suicide, but we incline to
|| the opinion that he fell in aecidcntly.
UNION OPERA TROUPE. —We omit
\ ted in our baste last week to mention
I the concerts of this Troupe of negro
I delineators, composed of young men
§§ from this place, whose performances
B passed off to the entire satisfaction of
| numerous auditors. The instrument-
I al music especially can be classed with
I the productions of those older in the
I "show business." The fact is we are
I a musical people in this section, and
I anything undertaken in that respect
is generally done up so as to meet the
§ encomiums of all. Music has charms,
I &c.
ITEMS. —Cyrus Matter had another
t paralytic stroke on Thursday last, be
ing the second time ho has become
lcompletely disabled. Mrs. Hunawalt,
Bmother of George, we learn, was also
disabled las'; week by the same disease.
jf Stauber has our thanks for a bowl
If of excellent ice ereem and a slice of
fe. sponge cake which eau't be beat.
.• **;.. Alfred Marks has been appointed a
■ member of the State Committee, of
which Gen. Cameron (not Col. Mc-
I Clure) is chairman. The for
the Sanitary Fair, started by two
members of our household, prom'ses
to be a decided success, many ladies
having aire furnished squares for
it. The Committees appointed at
H the Town Hall on Saturday evening
are meeting with much encourage
gjßßt o o
jf: ment. The subject is undoubtedly a
worthy one, especially at this time,
111 and does not, as some suppose, intcr
fere with the operations of the Chris
|H tian Commission.
I SCREAM.— Ieo Cream at all hours
(Sundays excepted) at John M. Stau
ber's Saloons on Dorcas st., corner of
Strawberry avenue, and next door to
Col. John Hamilton's residence. Sa
loons on the 2d floor for ladies or
ladies accompanied by gentlemen only.
g&r Brien & Co's. circus tent blew
down in the thunder storm on Monday
afternoon last, causing much confusion
among the spectators, who were wait
ing for the opening act, and injuring
several persons, among whom was a
little daughter of Mr. Laudenslager
and a countryman named Triester.
This accident prevented the proprie
tors from holding an afternoon exhibi
tion, and in dealing out the tickets to
those who purchased, of course Young
America came in for two chances.
THE WEATHER during the past week
has been mild and spring-like, Nature
coming forth in all her loveliness, and
every leafy tree and springing flower
proclaiming the coming summer, while
caroling birds show forth their praise
in loftiest song, and as the glad anthem
is caught up and borne on toward the
frozen regions of the North, it is whis
pered in faintest echo at the Poles—
"No spring is here."
Public Meeting.
In pursuance of the call issued by the Ladies' Aid
Society of Lewistown. the citizens assembled in the
Town Hali on the evening of the 7th May.

fitted for the great work in which they are engaged. |
and entertain the hope that a generous public will j

far as human aid can the suffering which must en.-ue \
from the great battles now impending.

TRIBUTE Ol<- RESPECT.
At a meeting of the physicians who were present at
the funeral, held immediately after returning there
from. at the office of Dr. James Frow. in Mitfimtown,
the following proceedings were had. viz:
The meeting was organized by appointing Dr. Jas. j
Frow, of Mifflin. Chairman, and Dr. R. Martin.of Lew
istown. Secretary. On motion, Dr. J. Lefever. of New
Bloomfield. Dr. R. Martin, of Lewistown. and Dr. P.
L. Greenleaf. of Thompsontown. were appointed a
committee to prepare resolutions expressive of the
sense of the meeting relative to the decease of Dr.
CRAWFORD. The committee presented the following,
which were unanimously adopted :
WHEREAS. It hath pleased Almighty God. in the ex
ercise of his wise providence, to remove from our
midst our esteemed fellow-citizen and brother in the
profession. Dr. Erasmus Darwin Crawford, we deem
it just and proper, in order to show our esteem and
respect for the deceased, to express our sorrow at the
sad dispensation, as well a to express our sympathy
for those who are still more deeply bereaved, there
fore.
Resolved. That we heard with deep-felt sorrow of
the unexpected death of Dr. Crawford, in the midst
of iife ana a career of usefulness, and while we would
not murmur at the will of God. thus exhibited, we
mourn his death, knowing that his loss will be deep
ly felt and that his plaee will never he filled.
Resolved. That in the death of Dr. Crawford, the
Medleal profession has lost an eminent member, one
whose practice proved him to he posessed of high
ability—and who in his intercourse with his fellow
men had endeared himself to them by the close asso
ciation formed between the faithful physician aud the
grateful patient.
Resolved. That in his intercourse with his profession
al brethren the high sense of honor he always mani
fested. proved him to be worthy of their fullest [
confidence in every lespeet.
Resolved, That society at largo, has lost one of its j
hrighest ornaments and most valuable members, from '
which his loss will be very seriously felt: that in his j
death all elasses will freely sympathize with those who :
are more immediately bereaved.
Resolved, That we tender our heart-felt sympathy !
to the fa l ily and relatives of Dr. Crawford: though I
they mourn for him who has been so suddenly re- !
moved from them, and have lost in him an affectionate j
and kind husband aud falher, and a true friend, we i
believe that they mourn not as those who have no |
hope, but as those who look forward to a happy re- l
union.
Rt solved. That a copy of the toregoing be transmit
ted to the family of the deceased, and a copy furnished
for publication in the differeut papers in Mifflin. Ju
niata ami Ferry counties. e ,
JAMES FROW. Chairman.
R. MARTIN, Secretary.
—A correspondent informs us that
Dr. A. 0. Cuinmings is soliciting sub
scribers to that open rebel sheet, the
Selinsgrove Times, and in one case at
least used Judge Turner's name as en
dorsing it! Nice employment, truly,
lor loyal men, when thousands of our
gallant soldiers lie dead or wounded j
at the hands of the hellhounds whose
cause that paper advocates.
—The appointment of D W. Woods
Esq., of this place, on the Lincoln Elec. !
toral Ticket, is a deserved tribute to an
uucotnpromising Urion man who has rend
ered irood service since the commencement
of the war.
—We are sorry to see that the Blair
county papers are engendering a great deal
of bad feeling by discussing the personal
merits and demerits of proposed candidates
for Congress. We care but little person
ally who the candidate may he or where
Irotn, so that he is an able man. but if
this course is pursued there much longer,
it will necessarily impel the other counties
of the district to select a candidate lrom
another quarter.
