AFB DlLOWNED.—Margaret, Thomas and henry W., aged respectively 8, 6 and 4 years, children of George Lloyd, of Newberry, were drowned in Lycorning, Creek, on Sunday last. The supposition is, that they weni upon the ice to play.whilo the mothdr was absent at a neighbor's house. Mr. 'Lloyd is a soldier, and arrived home cn furlough just as the bodies of two of his little ones bad been recavercd.— Williamsport Democrat. gr. ASSIST THE Poon.---Winter is at our doors. Fuel and Provisions 'are dear, and there are those among us that have not the means to buy. There are the families of our brave soldiers, many of whom will need as sistance without being regarded as subjects of charity. There are whole families whom misfortune has overtaken, and who, in the -struggle of life, have been driven to the wall. 'These should receive assissistatice from those who have a competence. The Wellsville Press contains several rich and "original" illustrations of the man •"Marsh Champ," *ho some weeks since headed the invasion from Mcliean county. From the appearance of one of the "pictures" it would seem that he ,has not received his regular rations of Democratic doctrine lately. By-the-way, we have frequently been asked by men from different parts of the county, whether this man Champlain said in his speech here that if McClellan was elected . "Democratic prices would take the place of the present high prices, and whiskey could be bought for 17 cents per gallon !" \4 e! can assure all who have any doubt about it that it is true. We heard him say it—and was not very much surprised, as people ,always I speak of that which "runs in their head." }fig?,, At the last Election there were two 'votes cast in Sweden toWnship by a couple, 'ho from the formation of that matt of their body generally supposed to carry the brains, ate not responsible for thetracts. Of course they voted for the illustricias 'gunboat gen eral.'" Ono of these, when asked with what he teas assessed, replied, "with C—Tv's cow," but when the taxes on C—:---NV's cow were to be paid, the "cow" had disappeared and the texes'wbre this week presented to the Commissioners for abatement. We . were present at the time anq are happy rtb an nounce that in the opinion of the Commis sioners, the "cow' ) or her friends' will have to "god-mother" the taxes. Take, this matter, hold it up, and let the light shine upon it so that it can be seen in all its bearings, and it presentsa significant picture of the necessi ties of a party, who, in the words of one of its members, have "exhibited their wax fig ures for the last time in a Presidential con test."

Here is a description of the place. It is a village con taining two hundred souls (i. e., if every hu man biped has a soul), - and is situated be tween a clump of alder bushes, and a noted frog-pond, But to my' story. - in times of old, there resided in said vil lage a hotel-keeper, who, for convenience, we will call Sam Mills. Now Ham was an excellent landlord,. Many miles l have trav elers gone out of their way to stop with Sam. His only failing was his love of city style.— Having returne from the city, his little ons horse tavern was dull. He was on the point of closing, when, horror of horrors, several 'city gents drove up to the door. Having no !waiters, Sam was nonplussed. There hap pened to be an old rum customer, known as Puts B—, lying around, and to; him, Sam, In this dire necessity, applied, telling him, if he would act on this occasion, his whiskey kill for the next month would be nit. Pus readily consented; and dressed, in one of Sam's 'caste off suits, he presented himself at the dinnen-Lable. The guests were -seated, when up steps Pus with : "What will .you have 'gents? We have ham cam, lamb, sheep, mutton, Codfish and venison." Suddenly in cornea Sara, with : J'Here, Pull, you go to the bar." The joke was too good to keep.
