Pic Mic Excursion.


On Saturday last two of our select
Schools under the care of their teach
ers-Miss G. Hemmings and Miss
LYDIA Comcr--went on pic ME ex
cursion to short distance beyond
Arcadia, to meet with the school OF
Miss Addie Hemmings. The TRIP
was made by rail and no accident
happened. An abundance of the
good things of this life was taken
along, and splendid dinner was par,
taken of by about six hundred chill
dren and grown people. An appro
pirate speech was made by c. c. Mes
tlerhode. Every thing passed of
pleasantly, and nothing occurred tc
mar the enjoyment Of all concerned
The children enjoyed the excursion
highly and will long remember it.
The originators and projectors o.
the pic mic may rest assured thai
their efforts to give pleasure to the
children are duly appreciated.
This should not be the last pic nic
of the season; the expense ant
trouble is small and the children en-
Joy it so much. While we are OF
this subject, we would suggest tina
the young folks get up pic mic on ,
large scale.

Col j. M. Neibling arrived homo

is at home to stay.
Brigadier- General Walker, returned
home last Tuesday.
One of the most beautiful rains o.
the season fell on Tuesday afternoon
and evening. We never saw it rair
much harder than it did for the first
hour. Vegetation looks very much
refreshed.
On last Saturday night, there was
beautiful display Of Northern lights
or Aurora Borealis. The whole
Northern heavens were lighted up.
Most of the drafted men from
Allen tp., arrived home on Wednes

at the same time.

Horse Thieves.

Horse Thieves.
Mr.. Thomas N. Shepherd, living
near Carey, had horse stolen one
week ago last Sunday night. lie
found the horse Wednesday q week
ago, near Whartonsburgh. lie has
not discovered anything of the thief
"A Mr.. Keller residing near .he same
place had horse stolen at the same
time. He found the horse in Buoy.
rus. The thief had traded Off the
horse for another and twenty dollars
and then sold the horse that he traded
for twenty dollars. No clue could
be found of the thief.
Horse owners cannot use too many
precautions, in regard to that kind o
property. the country is oyerrur
with horse thieves and horses arc
only safe from their depredation'
when under lock and key. 1t would
be pretty good idea, for those hav
ing horses, to form q mutual self pro
tecting club. 1t would ensure then
against depredations of this sort and
serve to fill the Penitentiary will
tenants.

During my stay at the hospital tho
clothing arrived for our men and 9
committee of our officers were ap
pointed and paroled for the purpose
of issuing it. They were very busy
ut this work when word came that We
were all exchanged. They had fin
ishcl issuing TO No. A and No. 6, as
they were the most needy, when or
ders were given them to be ready 10
move the next morning. The order
was changed and Nos one and five
taken in their stead. Four and six
were found TO be dying of at the rate
of from eight to ten per day, and for
every man that died they got suit
of new clothes. The others had not
had the clothing issued to them and
il was nc profit to keep them. just
as certain as q man went to the hos
pital with a good suit on he would
die. Col. Robson went there with n
fine suit on; they Immediately put
warm poultices to his wound, some
thing hardly ever heard of in the
civilized world-mortification took
place and in few hours he was dead,
and they had his clothes for their
pains. Major Ruggles went there a
day or two before l did, with good
suit on, and was not very sick; when
| went there he was working in
spasms, caused by poison, l suppose,
and died in q day or two--they fell
heir to his clothes. AS my suit was
of such poor quality, felt COM
paratively safe.
On the 18th OF February we re-
ccived the glad tidings that we were
to start at five o'clock that evening
for exchange, to Richmond. AT five
we were mustered and marched to
the depot, one fourth of o mile dis
tant. There were thirty mine sick Of
licers and only three blankets, the
balance having left their blankets at
the prison expecting to return. Tie
weather was cold-wc remained at
the depot about an hour, when we
were informed that we could not go
till the next morning. We were
marched back to the hospital. Next
morning-without anything to cat
we were started in open box cars for
Richmond. We had no blankets or
overcoats, and our other clothing in
Il dreadful condition, none OF us hav-
ing yet received any clothing. l was
assisted to and from the cars by Lieut..
Murphy, of the 18th Pennsylvania
Cavalry. We reached Richmond at
eight o'clock that night and were
kept waiting three hours in the cars
and in the streets before we were ia
ken to the hospital; by this time l
was nearly frozen. On the next day
we were paroled preparatory to going
to our lines. On the 2lst we were
taken by steamer down the James
River, and in Il few hours were on
board of the New York, and under
the protection of my country with
the glorious old flag of the Union
floating proudly in the breeze. My
feelings, dear reader, can better be
imagined than described, | therefore
decline the task.

This is said to be the best churn
in use, 1T makes more butter from the
same amount of cream than any other
Churn now in use. 1t can be taken

as readily churn it as an older per-

Bell Ringing.

Bell Ringing.
Some Of our town boys, on last
Saturday night, about midnight, took
it into their heads, to ring the Court
House bell. They did it, and the
result was that many of our cit,
izens appeared in the streets in all
varieties of costumes, supposing il
to be an alarm of fire. When the
cause of the alarm was discovered,
language mors emphatic than nice,
was indulged in. There is a law
against raising false alarm OF fire
and it should be enforced. A fine oi
some amount would go far toward
preventing repetition of such
performance, on the part of the boys
