LOCAL AND GENERAL.
THE DRAFT —Dr. JOHNS publishes in the
Columbia Republican it detailed account of the en
deavors of the Committees from this Congression
al District to procure from Fnv an adjustment of
the quota for the District.
Failing to accomplish what was desired, the Com
mittee procured (through Senator BCCKALEW) the
following section to be added to the Military bill:
••That when any revised enrolment in any Cou
,rr, ssioual or Draft District has been obtained or
made prior to any actual drawing of names from
the enrolment lists, the quotas of such district may
be adjusted and proportioned to such revised en
rolment instead of being applied to or based upon
the enrolment as it may have stood before the re
vision."
This amendment, which passed, ought to relieve
this District from the overwhelming burden placed
upon it. in the way of an excessive quota.
We learn from Troy that an order has been re
ceived at the Provost Marshal's office, which cred
its to each district upon the present draft the term
of service of volunteers. This arrangement- will
change the quotas in the sub-districts very matcr
i ..llv. Towanda borough, for instance, which has
had an impending quota of nearly 50. is out of the
draft, and has several to spare, ou account of the
number of three years' men, who have been cred
it, 1 to the borough.
We also learn that in consequence of the repre
sentations of the Committee, a government agent
ha* been at Troy,examining the revised enrollment,
and that he finds the late enrollments entirely pro
pel- aud satisfactory. We have no doubt that such
being the fact, the quota will be reduced in accord
ance with the number enrolled.
LLSSF THE ice passed out of the pool of the
dam. on Friday evening, very quiet ly, without doing
any damage.

Considerable damage was done in
Shesliequin by the ice and water, backing up from
the head of Smith's island, and flooding the lower
part of tin valley. The water, as far up as the
Valley House was several feet dee]) in the main
road. Dwellings and barns were surrounded by
w iter, and some stock lost. The most serious loss
| in stock was sustained by VALENTINE SMITH, (who
is in the army.) His cuttle Ac., were driven into
the ban. for security, and one horse, two cows and
about thirty sheep drowned. The fruit trees in
many of the orchards girdled by the ice. and fences
I are gone, and the land badly cut up.

' good, and this appears to be his sole object. After
tin lecture the pledge was circulated and tliirtv

it reigns like a despot. Then it becomes us as a
