NEW RAILROAD PROJECT.—The people of
Spencer and Van Etten are aggitating the project

rtVring the right of way through their town free of (
charge to the Company.
jafk. We have received the first and second
numbers of the Gorry Petroleum Telegraph, pub

,nd ALVIN DAY, Esqrs., the former late editor and
proprietor of the Tioga A Bradford Democrat, at
Waverley, and the latter we believe, from Tunk
huiuock. The Telegraph makes a handsome ap

ographical skill and editoral ability.

SOME OK THE EFFECTS OF THE FLOOD. —We j
learn that Skinner's Eddy in the upper part of the >
i iiiuty, 18 or 19 buildings, mostly dwelling houses, 1
were swept away—Mr. L. D. Sturdevant's house
with all its contents, leaving him nothing but a
•• no-ant lot." The losses of others all along the
river, in lumber, fences, buildings, Ac., have been
immense. The principal sufferers of loss here, if
we except those whose houses, and in some cases
furniture were filled with mud, and whose gardens
have been all laid open to the commons, are Messrs
Samuel Stark, C. P. Miller, John Day—they being
principal owners of the Bridge.
The owners of the "Sharp Mills," Messrs. C.
P. Miller. Wm. H. Piatt and T. L. Ross, have sus
t hied a loss of at least a thousand dollars. They
had about 1000 bushels of corn in cribs near the
mill, which was all set afloat, one crib floating
down to the creek bridge which operated as a boom
—a large amount of chop Ac., on the lower floor i
was overflowed and spoiled. Two large stacks of ,
lumber. 10 or 50 thousand feet, were swept away j
from below the North abutment of the Bridge, this ;
belonged, one stack to Mr. Samuel Stark, and the ;
other to Mr. John P. Avery.— Wyoming Republican.
THE FLOOD AT ATHENS AND WAVERI.Y.—
i The llq rerty Advocate gives the following account ;
t 'if the flood at Athens and Waverly :
I The people of Athens have suffered severely by j
r a general flooding of a portion of the village. The i
waters of the two rivers unitedntthe foot of "mile '
I bill." Blood's foundry lias been seriously injured, i
'Hid the loss of the company is large in other re- !
sheets. The loss in lumber has been most serious j
in that vicinity.
Harris A Co., and C. F. Welles have suffered the !
most in that respect, G. H. Welles has suffered I
great loss by the destruction of fences, Ac,, on his j
tarm. Nearly five miles of his fences have been
swept away. He also lost 40 sheep.
The same paper says of the damages around
Waverly :
Some few of our citizens have met with serious
ioss by the flood. Among them is J. L. Sawyer A
Son. Arthtis Yates and C. H. Sliepard—the former
y loss of lumber and the latter by injury to his
farm on the opposite side of the Chemung. There
iri others, probably, who have suffered more or
less in the same way.
Citizens along Shepard's Creek have also suffer
id severely. Several dams on the upper part of
the stream were torn out, and bridges swept away,
the dam at Westfall's grist mill was considerably
'■■ imaged : also the dam at Stone A Tozer's Tan
fiery. The dam at Morley's grist mill was some
what damaged and a part of the bridge carried
■way. Wlieelock's dam was much injured. In
t all have sustained loss more or less.
s, v n head of cattle were swept from the farm
• -1 ('. H. Shepard opposite this village. The saw
'"ill ami sash and blind factory of G. W. Ham
-1 mil, near Tozer's Bridge, were almost entirely
• strayed—the drying house was carried away.
| ! >'*ry toot of lumber around the mill was lost.

THE BRIDHE at this place stoood the Hood
nobly. The subsiding of the waters shows, how
ever, that the embankment at the east end is all 1
gone, down to low-water mark, and for some feet
much below. Boats are now employed to ferry
teams and footmen over the break. We are not in
formed as to the plans of the Bridge Company,
whether they intend to renew the embankment or
extend the bridge.

man citizens of Elinira, were drowned on Saturday j
week, by being upset in a skiff, whilst crossing the

saloon opposite the Depot, who was also one of the
party, was rescued.

ACCIDENT. —A son of Mr. DAVID FISK, of;
Franklin, aged about seven years, was missed from
the house on Saturday, the 11th inst., and search j
being made for him, his little hand-sled was found
in the mill race, lodged on a cake of ice. The I
children of the neighborhood had been in the habit
of riding down a dugwav road in a steep bank, ■
close by the foot of which the mill race runs, and
on exlmining the banks and road, it appears that
he started his sled at the top of the bank and when
about one fourth of the distance down the sled ran
over the dngway down a very steep place into the |
race. Where he went down the bank, on one side j
of the sled track appeared to be the print of his
little heel stuck in the snow crust to stop the sled,
and on the other side of the track the print of his
little hand. These marks and the sled in the race
are the only witnesses of his fate. The creek has
been searched as thoroughly as could be while the j
water is so high, but the body is not yet found.—
Montrose Republican.
I®"* The amount of damage done by the
flood to the North Branch and Junction Canals
proves to be very serious. The officers of these
companies are now making such inquiries and es
timates as will determine the course they may pur- j
sue in regard to repairs. We trust that the Canals
will be in operation for a part of the season, and
we have no doubt that if the companies conclude
to repair the Canals, the work will be pushed with i
energy.
BOILER EXPLOSION. —On Monday morning
20th inst., the boiler in the steam saw-mill of the
Barclay Company, at Barclay, exploded, scalding
the engineer, Mr. ISAAC D. WEBBER, SO severely
that he died in about 50 hours after suffering most
intense agony. The explosion occurred about -1
o'clock in the morning, while getting up steam,
and the guages had but a moment previous been
tested, and found all right. The boiler was a new
one, and must have been defective. It is supposed
that Mr. WEBBER was standing in front of the boil
er, oiling the machinery, a bulkhead being bet ween
him and the boiler. The force of the explosion
drove the bulkhead out of the mill, carrying him
with it. Mr. W. was from Springfield township, ,
aged about 36 years. He leaves a wife and three
children.

TJUI ST'S GA R D E N S K E DS!
It is au established fact Iliat a large proportion ol the
Garden Seeds sold in the country are worthless or nearly
so. The reason is obvious. Seeds are ielt by the owners
with merchants to sell on commission, often but a small
portion of them are sold, the remainder being returned,
repacked aud sent out again the following year, and so
continuing until as a matter of course many of the seeds
are worthless. In order to get the best and most reli- j
able seeds I have bought a large stock of Robert Bnist.of
Philadelphia, a house whose reputation for selling fresh !
and pure seeds is uot surpassed by any in the country ;
and who never send ont any seeds on commission, and
consequently not liable to accumulate old stock.
I think a little reflection will convince any one of the
advantage of purchasing these seeds. I have many var
ieties not to be found any where els ein town. Also
Rutabaga, Beet and Carrot seed by tbe pound, and Peas
by the bushel.
