    LOCAL AND GENERAL.
RAN AWAY.— On Monday last, a team
fhorses attached to a lumber wagon, took fright, and
dasted up Main street at furious speed. No material
damage was done.
jgy. The Bradford County Medical Society
-ill meet at the Odd Fellows' Hall, in the borough of
Towanda, on Wednesday, May 7th, 1802, at 10 o clock,
I M It is hoped there will be a general attendance.
C. M. TURNER, President.
S F.ING —There were several warm,
refreshing showers last week, which had a tendency to
improve the appearance of the " vegetable kingdom
VE rv materially. The willow trees in the park are " leav
IN ." rapidly, and the meadows are green and fresh. The
winter gmin in this section looks well, and bids fair for
plentiful crop. Our farmers are now busily engaged in
getting in their oats, and preparing their planting
ground.
HaTTOWNS' Diorama of the War, was ox- .
hibited at this place, on Friday and Saturday nights of
last week, which gave very general satisfaction to the
Urge audiences fee attracted. This Diorama was gotten |
NN by Mr TOWNS himself, who, by the way. is decidtdh
a genius, and must be a Yankee of great patience to whit- |
tie out so large an army of men and horses. His exhibt- ,
TION is instructive as well as amusing.
Btff- An Exchange has the following in ref
erence to preparing water proof boots : If hot tar is
applied to boot soles, i: will make them water proof.
Let it be A. hot as the leather will bear without injury |
applying it with a swab and drying by the fire heat— j
The operation maybe repeated two or three times during
the winter. It makes the surface of the leather quite J
b3rd, sothatit wears longer, as well AS keeps out the |
water. Oil or grease softens the sole, and does not do ,
much good in keeping the water out. It is a good plan
to provide boots for Winter during the Summer, and
prepare the soles by taring, as they will then become.,
before Ibey are wauted to wear, almost as firm A- a horn,
and will wear twice as bug as those unprepared."
ROMI.VG CONFERENCE The M yomiusr .
Conference closed its annual session in V\ ilkes-Barre on
Monday week-Bishop SCOTT presiding. The session was
quite harmonious. The following is the list of appoint

iS<IU FRESHET —The North Branch for the
bast week has been higher than it has been before for sev
eral years. There has been very little rain in this section
DURING the spring, and the water has come from the im
mense snow banks of York State.
The Tompkins County Democrat of the bth says : "A
: nllemati who has just returned from the vicinity of
lows' Falls, says the snow there is fully three feet
DEEP, and in most places the fences are covered. The snow
bcrushed so hard th.it teams can go UPON it any where ,
EX:ep'. in the woods. The main roads were almost impas
sible. the EN IW up M the track worn down quite to the
cround IU many places, while upon each side it lies three
or tour feet deep. '
WE haic heirJ of no very serious damage being done :
by the Nrer. although some portions of our town was
inundated. A porti nof the Agricultural Fair Ground
FENCE WAS undermined and washed away.
