A FORMER TOWANDA FAMILY AFFLICTED.
—We take the following account of the acci
dental drowning of Master LLOYD, only son
of our former townsman, S. ef. ASPINWALL,
Esq., from the Hastings, (Minn.), Daily
News, of June 4. The lad visited in this
place with his parents last year. The be
reaved family have the hearty condolence of
their many friends in this community:
Yesterday afternoon about half past three
o'clock, the alarm was raised that Llopd As
pinwall, the nine year old son of S. N. Aspin
wa'l. of the Foster House, had fallen into the
river from the fire engine pier at the foot of
Rr isey street, and was drowned. The entire
circumstances relative to the sad calamity are
wrapt in mystery and for ever will be. Only
a short time t .fore the alarm, Lloyd went in
to t he dining room of the hotel, and asked for
a lump of sugar, which was given him by
one of the girls. He then ran out, and that
was the last seen of him alive. The first in
stance relative to his drowning, is recorded
by one George Oakes, a young man, a laborer
o*i the wheat burg at Van Inwegen's eleva
or. Oakes informed us that having no work
to do yesterday afternoon, he was leisurely
walking down the railroad track, when he
noticed two small arms extended from the
surface of the water aud almost immediately
disappear. At the same time he saw a straw
hat floating on the water. Marshall Lloyd
claims to have been a witness of the same
circJinstance across the river, and lie linme
dbilelv repaired in a boat to this fide, and
did all within his power to find the body.
Marshall says that when he noticed the arms
extended from the water apparently for the
last time, there were several men on the rail
way track, and had they had courage enough
1 o have made the attempt* Lloyd could have
been saved. On the other hand, Oakes claims
f ere was not another person in sight when
be noticed the nflbir, but lie soon saw two or
three man aud called to them. They secured
the hat, which proved to be Lloyd's, and by
IMS only were the parents of Lloyd convinc
ed that it was he that was drowned. It
would appear that Lloyd, immediately afler
leaving the hotel, went down alone and un
seen to the river and by some mishap fell in.
Mr. Swingler aud Marshal Lloyd got out
boats and commenced dragging for the body,
but at a late hour last night they had not se
cured it. It is apparent that there was a care-
Jess indifference manifested by the men on
this side the river who were first wiinesses of
the tragedy. If they bad possessed even the
courage to have shouted for help, Lloyd might
have been saved.
Llocd was an unusually bright little fellow,
" smart as a whip," being the title unanimou -
lv bestowed upon him. He was a great fa
vorite with the guests of the hotel and the
ido< of bis home. Always a leader among his
many playmates, he will be missed from their
circle "with a sadness that will only grow
deeper rs they grow older and never surren
der from their tender hearts where it is now
engraved.
His parents aud sisters will have the deep
est sympathy of Hastings in their affliction.

Mr. GEO. 11. WOOD:
My Dear Sir —The picture arrived this
morning, and was paid for and taken in less
than two seconds after it was opened. It is
without doubt the finest picture of any kind
in town; in fact, the finest I ever saw at any
p ;iec.
I cannot compliment you sufficiently for
your talent, and as®live you that you will
never regret the labor bestowed on this piece
of work; it will be productive of other simi
lar work from this sectiou and to no small
amount. 1 have no doubt that by putting it
on exhibition in window I could secure you
hundreds of dollars worth of work. I have
compared it with former one of same subject
made by you at sls I think, and this is very
much finer.
My wife, who is a daughter of the subject,
is perfectly carried away; you may consider
her under obligations to you. Again tbauk
iug you, I remain, Yours, &c.

This remedy is something new, both as to name
and composition. This is one of the wonders of the
world. This Syrup, 1 claim, is better and more
effective than any other ever offered to the ople of
America or any other country, and what 1 say of
this I can prove, This Syrup, like the Pills, is
harmless and safe. It contains no opium or other
narcotic poison, like the most Syrup, and is not dis
agreeable to take. Any child will take it. And it
will cure any and all inflammations arising from
Cold. It i uperior to all others in every respect
and especially for the following reasons :
Ist- Tt will cure Croup every time.
2d. It will cure Inflammation of the Lungs.
