A SAD calamity occurred in West Buffalo
township, Union county, on Friday evening
last. Three little children were burned to
death—the precise origin of the fire being
wholly a matter of conjecture. The parents
were both absent—Mr. Strickler was lumber
ing in the mountains, and Mrs. S. was out of
the house a few moments, attending to do
mestic duties. Returning, she found the inside
of the dwelling in flames, but was unable to
rescue one of all her children, whom she had
left in supposed safety. The oldest child was
three and a half years and the youngest but a
few months old.
b'ensitnto of our paper, the Lancaster. Ex
aminer says :
The Harrisburg TELEGnAPIL, published by
George Bergner, Esq., will be furnished daily
to mail subscribers at $6 per annum, and in
the same proportion for a shorter period.—
The weekly, printed on a large double sheet,
is published at $2 a year in advance, or ten
copies to one post-office for $l5. The TELE
GRAPH furnishes full reports of legislative pro
ceedings and gives the latest news by tele
graph. It is a capital paper and we are glad
to learn is in a most prosperous condition.
A MiElf UL INVENTION.—Among the inven
tions of the times, we find none that are cal
culated to be more useful in a dwelling than
Tom Cowden's Patent Ballast Weather Strip,
an article that is warranted to keep the rain,
snow, or cold from blowing in under the
doors. Those whose carpets have been dam
aged from the above causes will rejoice to
know that there is a remedy at hand—one
which cannot fail to render satisfaction. One
of these strips has been placed upon the front
door of our office, where P. can be seen. Mr.
Cowden is stopping at Buell's Union House,
where he will remain for a few days. State,
county, town or individual eights will be sold
on very reasonable terms. Oar mechanics
would find it a very profitable investment.
IMPORTANT TO EVERYBODY.--The Board of
Enrolment publishes •an extetsive advertise
ment in this paper, relative to the correction
of the enrolment lists. The Board urges the
appointment of township and n•ard commit
tees, whose duty it shall be to examine the
lists at the office of the Provoit Itarshal, and
have stricken therefrom the names of enroled
man who are either dead, in the military ser
vice, over or under age, or aliens; those who
have removed from the district• or from one
town or township to another; All who have
served two years in the army, and such as
hare manifest evidence of physical usability.
It is the desire of the Board to have the lists
correct before the draft takes place, in order
that no unjust quotas may be imposed upon
any of the sub-districts. Notice is also given
that if the present opportunity to correct the
enrolment is neglected, no attention; vifl in fu
ture be given to wmplaints about excesOz. quotas.
It is therefore to the interests of the people
of all the towns and townships in this Con
gressional district to take immediate action
in the matter, and appoint committees to'at
tend to the correction of the lists. The larger
the enrolment of any sub-district, the larger
will be its quota. Every name stricken from
the roll aids in reducing the quota. h the
citizens neglect to attend to this impotent
matter, they cannot charge the Board of y, n _
ImM:sent with the imposition of excessive
quotas. We trust there will be no dela,'y on
the part of any one, but let all act at once.__

ME. EDITOR.—The following note explaiue

IMPORTANT 0 THE PUBLIC.
The Correction of le Enrollment.
gIEIE correction of the National Enrollment
is of the first importance. Where it is excessive,
quotas ate Increased and unjust bor.:ens imposed. The
Board of Eurollment desires the co-operation of all citi
zens—those who are not liable to draft as well as those
who are—in an effort tom:cure its reduction to the proper
standard.
HOW IHI3 SHOULD BS DO YE.
In a matter of this kind, organization is what is wanted
to insure success. Every Town or Township should at
once constitute a few of its citizens a Committee to at
tend to its interests. That Committee should be required
to see the preparation of evidence with a view of striking
from the lists the names of men in the service, those that
hive removed from the District permanently and in good
faith, and those that are deceased, as well as adding the
names of persons coming into the District to reside, such
es have arrived at twenty years of age, and any that may
have escaped cm ollment het etofore.
DECEASED PERSONS.
These will be stricken offon Itiocerilficatf. of the proper
molting officer on the affidavit of two citizens stating
the time of death as nearly as tosslble.
PERSONS IN MILITARY SEAVICS
Committees will please confine their attention to such
as have entered the service otherwise than through this
office. Drafted men in service, substitutes and volun
teers enlisted hero are taken from the enrollment as a
matter or course. the Board will strike otr the names of
enrolled persons alleged to be in this ervice upon the
sworn statement of two citizens, giving the company and
regiment in wniclt the parties may be serving, the date
and place of lousier, and such other facts as may suggest
themselves. A specification of at least the regiment and
the time of muster, as nearly as can be ascertained, is
essential,
PERSONS REMOVED.
All permus who have removed permanently and in
good faith from the District, or from one Town or Towu•
ship in the District to another, will be stricken otf on the
app:ication of two citizens whom sworn statement of the
time and manner o - removal, together with the present
residence of the party, if known, 'liquid be Met
TWO YEARS' SERVICE.
Those. that hive t eased two years in the present war
are entitled to be stricken off. The dieoltar t e of such
with an oath of identity is sufficient. Where the dis
charge is inaccea3ible for any good reason, affidavits mak
ing out clearly the fact of service for that period of time
will b 3 received. The organization and dates of muster
in and out should not be omitted
OVER OR UNDER ARE
Persont who claim to be stricken off on account of being
over 4.5 or under 20 years of age, must bring their oen
affidavit, stating the day of their b rth. Where the pa
rents are living their affidavit is also required. In case
the parents are dead, the affidavit of the applicant mast
state this fact, and teen the affidavit of any two reputable
citizens, stating that they know the man and believe his
statement to be true, will be received. In support of the
foregoing evidence, any record evidence, public or pri
vate, that may be in existence, Must be produced. Where
there is no record evidence, the affidavits should set forth
the fact of its non-existence.
ALIENS.
These must file an affidavit setting forth the date and
place of birth; the port at which they v. ere landed, es
well as the time; their several places of residence since
In this country, with the length or time at each; and that
they have never Hied a declaration of intenti a to become
citizens, nor have voted or attempted to Tote at any elec.
tioo is any elate. In addition, the anldavit of t•o re
spectable eitizetis, not themselves aliens, must be for.
noshed who certify that they know the applicant to be a
man entitled to credit; and b..liere his statement to Le
true.
PHYSICAL USABILITY.
The Board Is allowed to strike oft; for manifest per
snent disability. it is impossible to make this
term soy plainer The ialirmities fur which the Board
are permitted to strike oil, must be both manifest and
permanent. Those detiriug to ha stricken on' under this
mead should coins en person. The Surgeon must Ste the
uouble complained of before reportiug au opinion to the
Board.
F it SO NAL APPEARANCE,'
Those claiming exemption for two years' service, over
or underiage, almnago and physical disability should ap
pear ia person. But a cursory examination will he given
the last class. Those that do not feel themselves perma
nently and mani tails disabled ssould not appear. As
regards aliens and persons claiming exemption on age,
peruoual attendance is etyma°. Whenever it is practi
cable for a party claiming exemption tor any alms to ap
pear, ho should come. An application in his abrence,
without reasonable excuse for non-attendance, is eon atrued
against him.
GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.
A copy of the enrollment may often facilitate and cur
tab. the work of committees. This will be furnished. the
Townships in the remoter Counties on application. Only
Committees, not:individuals, need Apply . This Mace has
not tho help to furnish more than a single copy to a
Township.
So soon as the present draft is comp etad the hoard of
Enrollment, or a part of it, will visit the several County
seats of the District, for the purpose of correcting the
lists. Due public notice of the time of visiting each
County will be given. The citizens are urged to hold
themselves in readiness to attend.
Persons of Unsuitable age, tnose afflicted with perma
nent ailments, those that nave seen two years' service,
aliens and all others who can attend should be urged to do
so, This a faithful effort on the part of the Board of En
rollment to obtain accurate lilts, and should be met Lwith
a corresponding spirit by citizens.
Committees need not wait
,until the Board visits Coun
ties, but can via% the Board- here at once if they see
proper.
Where it is desired to have a person enrolled who has
