-A- NARROW ESCAPE.— One day last week,
tin were crossing the river, on the ice, the ice
• ft i)d they were all precipitated Into the river.
S lTe wa '' „ wllo went to their rescue, also got in, and as
* i very rotten it was with difficulty they were
Jbeice **\ rope was thrown to them Irom the bridge,
'Thick means they were saved from a watery grate.
teg* We repret to learn (from the Columbia
\iicoii) that Captain D. L. McKinney.of Bioomsburg,
W wilh a severe accident rendering amputation ol
iMm ' --ess* ry , and placing his life in great peril—
'"l inlflcK n e; made the acquaintance of many of our
last tall,and is favorably remembered as a gentle
bitty and pleasant address.
LADY'S ROOK, for March is
. e i)ave so often praised the Book, that It
rt ? s almost a work of supererogation .to say more in
Tv - It has become indispensable to every lady—
a jn , frnm the frequent calls lor one copy) and the
l 'Vl amount expended for it comes back ten-fold. The
f 1 ,uv recipes and useful directions, (apart from the
Sine) are invaluable. Address L. A. COOKY, Phila

IGP THE CONCERT of Madam JULIA MEL
,!LU on Tuesday evening was very well attended, al
:-"ugh the audience was not as large as we would like to
'ate cenn. The performance gave entire satisfaction—
"hesinging of both Mr.;. MELVILLE and ber daughter
KBIUK being excellent. The little boy orator is really
jwumlerfnl vhild, and we sincerely hope to soon see
them all again at our place.
jsg-LOCUSTS COMING.— The loenst tribe
, j,e on hand this year-as-1863 is the seventeenth
rtsrsinee their last appearance. From notes taken at
the following dates we learn that these locusts made their
.ppearar.ee on the wing. May 19th, 1846 ; on the22dcom
nenced singing ; on the 31st commenced boring trees
and laying t ggs. On June 6th they commenced dying.
;hf males tirst-and by the 25th of the same month
tit) were all dead.
The Ilarrishtirsf Telegraph says that
"We are authorized to state in explanation of certain ru
mow, which have wen put in circulation, to the effect
that Governor Curtin was engaged with other individu
al living in Washington city , in •' a giGtt conservative
movement,'' that the report is without foundation in
Jict. Governor Curtin is engaged, politically, in no
other movement but that which tends t > the consolidat
'.cgind strengl enitig of the Republican party—a consol
idation which seeks to embrace the entire Union senti
aeat of the country.
THE LENTEN SEASON. —The season of
lent commences earlier than usual thts year, Ash Wednes
dav, the first day, falling upon the ISth. Ash Wednes
day is one of the most solemn leasts of the Christian year,
sad is observed with great strictness in the Catholic
church. It is also observed, but with less strictness, in
;hr Episcopalian Church. Adult Catholics are limited to
a single meal and a collation on Ash Wednesday. The
usec-f fresh meat is also prohibited, and all who cau pos
• ' !y do so are required to pass part of the day in church,
ti receive the ashes, Ac. The lenten season extends from
Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday, and during its contiuu
siicethe Catholic Church requires its members to observe
s strict fast,and also to devote more time than usual to
their religious duties.
FROST BITE. — In a late number of the
British American Journal, there is an article by Dr.
Berlin on the treatment of frost bite. His own plan
which, he says, lias been approved by a large experience,
is. after applying cold water or snow for a few minutes,
t'r immerse the frozen part in warm water containing
a sufficient quanty of ground pepper or mustard ; as one
or the other of those articles is to be found in almost cv -
ry house, it is consequently always available. If portion*
ofthe cars or face are affected, pieces of flannel coming
out of the hot liquid are to be applied and frequently re
pMted until cir culution is restored. In a few minutes
a tingling sensation will be felt; and in a short time,
Vitality will be restored, unless tbe frost fcAs penetrated
ton deeply. If the whole thickness of a member was
froien. including the principal blood-vessels and bone,
no treatment can restore vitality.
2PL We owe our apology to oxir friend F.
H. BALDWIN for not having eralicr noticed" 7/ie 7rog
Srßtadford Democrat," a Democratic paper published
by him at Waverly, which has now reached its seventh
number. We can assure him the slight was not inten. j
tonal. We have perused the sheet with great gratifica
tion. Whatever Prof. B. eaters into, he does it with his
*hoie soul whether it be the grave stone business, or
writing copperhead editorials. There is a propriety and
beauty in thus mingling tbe business, which is refresh
ing. in fact, we don't know of anyone better calculated
'• '•an the Professor to run the Democratic party into the
ground. nor one who can erect a more beautiful tomb
done to o ramemorate its untimely fate. He has our
beat wishes for his success in both undertakings.
MR. EDITOR :—On Wednesday, the 18th
'large and intelligent audience assembled.in Monroeton
puruar.t to public notice, to listen to a lecture on temper
ance, by our friend J. G. PATTON. At the conclusion o'
his lecture the following resolution was offered.
Rrto/reif, That we highly appreciate the beautiful,
tisquent and classic address to which we have this
tvening listened by J. G. I'ATTOS Esq., and that we most
"'filially invite him to address us again at his earliest
convenience, and that we cheerfully commend him to the
friends of temperance everywhere.
The resolution was adopted unanimously by a rising
Gte. The meeting was also addressed in an interesting
s'nner by Maj E.tV. HALE, and the Rev. E. M.CKASMKK.
Toe meeting then elected a President, Vice President n 1
Secretary, thus forming the nucleus of a temperance
Society. It was then unanimously resolved that we
'•nvite C. M. MANVILLE, Esq., of Towanda to address us
°t the subject of temperance, on Wednesday evening, the
Wth of March aproximo. The meeting then adjourned
the fourth of March next; S. W. ALDEN.
Monroeton, Feb. 23,1863. President.
" Omnibus quae prosunt scquixur," or
"e labor for the good of all," is the inscription on one
o'the chime of bells given by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co. to
'be city of Lowell. That favored place may have the
bells, but they cannot monopolize the Doctor's skill
"b'.ch is made available by his Cherry Pectoral and
Cathartic Pills to all alike—not only in this country but
1!! 'U countries where civilization and commerce have
Bone. While we admire the liberality and taste of those
B f aUeinen in such a donation to their native town, we
remind our readers of the hallowing influence a
c bime of bells spreads over the whole community that
tears them. They are few in this coun try, and their in
-2unce is little known, but ask the exile from his home
Germany, France, England, whether the chime on
Trinity Church does not make his heart leap into his
ttonth, and hi* eyes swim in the recollection it brings of
loieoin notes bis childhood, his boyhood, aye, and
m *nhood loved to hear at the soft approach of
tveniag in hie native land.
W wish our generou* townsmen whom God has blessed
with means would consider whether we too cannot add
this one more attraction to make our children and our
selves love dearer and stronger and longer the place we
call onr home.— Madison, hid. Banner.

VERS OF GOOD POTATOES.—The celebrated
" Garnet Chili" Potatoes, selected by Goodrich in a thir
teen years' experiment from more than ten thousand new
seedlings, possess a higher degree of hardiness and adap
tation to all soils and weather than any other sort. They
are round, ripen with the season, grow closely in the
hill, do not push out of the soil, are very smooth and
beautiful, have white flesh and in most localities have
been pronounced the finest and best potato for table use.
In good soils and seasons and with lair cultivation, they
will readily yield from 250 to 350 bushels to the acre,
and in sonie hands have exceeded even those figures.—
Secure seed now—several bushels for sale. Inquire at
