Two Brothers DrOwned--The
Father Bereft OF Reason In Con-

The following we copy from the
Lancaster Express Of Monday:
Yesterday about noon a sad
drowning accident occurred on the
Conestoga, near Federal Springs, in
Lancaster township, two and half
miles southwest of this city, by which
two very interesting children lost their
lives. The children were brothers,
aged about eight and ten years, named
Harman aud Jesse Seilaman, sons OF
Mr.. Charles Seilaman. 1t seems that
the children asked permission Of their
father to 90 on the ice on the creek
short distance from their home, which
was denied several times. Their APP
peals were so urgent. however, that he
finally consented and went with them
to the creek. The ice was soft and
dangerous, fact not known 20 the
father. AS soon as the three reached
the creek both boys got on the ice, and
were walking upon it, when German
man, residing in the neighborhoOd
knowing the treacherous nature Of the
ice, and seeing il culver, motioned to
them TO 90 back. The warning was
given too late, for almost Immediately
the ice gave way, and both boys
were precipitated into the water
One Of them sunk ut once, but the
other elung to c-.ke of ice. The
father, who witnessed the catastrophe
speedily secured rope and managed
to get it within reach of his still sur
viving son. But just at that moment
the ice tilted. and be also disappeared
beneath and was drowned. The bodies
were recovered shortly afterwards
Another sad feature of the accident il
the fact that the father has become be
reft Of his reason by the terrible
calamity. Mr.. Seilaman was a sol
dier in the late war, and this morning
he appeared dressed in his uniform
Ho carried a cane aud constantly
pointed it in the direction of the
creek, while he uttered incoherent ex
clamations."

THE MAMMOTH TREE.
Thirty feet i'm Circumference, and
1900 Years Old.

Mr.. Jas. Love, one of our subcri
bers, in Troy, o., sends us the follow
ing, which he clipped from an Ohio
paper:
Editor Times: There is standing
at present on the farm of Mr.. Jacob
Furrow in Lost Creek Township, Mi.
ami county, Ohio, a sycamore tree,
which has for years been considered
by the old settlers Of this county the
giant of the forest of the Miami Val.
ley. Thinking brief description OF
this tree may be of interest to many
of your numerous readers, we send you
a chronological, historical and descrip-
tive account of the same. Ii stands
on the left bank Of Honey Creek, 40 fl
from the eastern line Of Miami county
and about so rods from the town OF
Addison, Campaign county, Ohio.
Its age canno. be put down at less
than 1900 years which would place its
primitive days coeval with the time
when Charlemagne was proclaimed
emperor of Rome and the West.
During the periods Of ignorance and
the decay of learning in the east, it
was youthful. At the time of the con-
quest of Jerusalem by the Turks,
which took place at or about the close
of the tenth century, it had attained a
stature that enabled it TO look up with
Importance among its neighbors.
When the Holy Year was instituted,
or Rome was decaying, which was
long before such q land as America
was thought of, it was ranked among
the greats. Perhaps often did the In.
dian hunter sit among its branches to
watch and shoot the deer as they were
want to come to lick not far distant.
1t hight is 100 feet with a base or
stump which measures 10 feet across
or more than 80 feet around. The
first II feet of the body contains ~
cords Of wood. The branches, not
limbs, of which there are four, each
diverges from the main body at an
angle of about 80 degrees, and each
branch bearing off in a different direc-
tion, reaches respectively towards an
Intern diate point of the compass
Each branch measures, at the base
more that 3 yards, and contains each

Sad Termination Ofa Love Affair.

Baltimore, January %. "A terrible murder
and suicide tragedy occurred here this NOR
ming in South Carolina street. A man
named Nyberg, who had for long time
courted a widow named Anderson, living
on that street, shot the woman dead and
with the same revolver blew out his own
brains. Nyberg, itseems, had several times
proposed marriages TO the widow and being
each time rejected finally resolved upon this
terrible course. The woman leaves two

london, january 12.-An appall-
ing accident has just occurred at
England. The explosion
took place in a colliery in the vicinity
Of that town, in which a number Of
men were engaged at work. So far as
has been ascertained thirty-seyen men
have been killed. II is probable that
the calamity may prove still greater

Partisan Determination.

London, January lo.-AdVices
have been received here stating that
the Parisions are determined 10 resist
the Prussians en- mdSse, should Gener-
al Trochu allow the enemy to enter the
city. The idea of yielding is repulsed
with indignation. All accounts agree
that resistance TO the enemy will be
shown that will not have been equalled
in the annals of war.
The horrors of bombardment have
so enraged the population that they
are furious, and will go out to meet
and fight the enemy despite al the
military caution and all the interfer>
ence of the government. If this is
PERSISTED in no horrors Of civilization
vet heard of will be able to find par
allel.
Progress Of the BombGrdmeHt.
A dispatch from Versailles states
that on Monday the Prussian fire
slackened and the bombardment was
much duller than on previous days.
This was rendered necessary by the
dense fog which prevailed at the time,
causing the gunners TO lose the sights
and ranges which they had previously
ken, and rendering their fire inefiec-
tual.
Assembling Of The European Confer

the voice ofthe French republican gov

ever, and as previously intimated to
the French government the proceeding
will be submitted to any delegation
they appoint, who may, if so empow-
cred, signify their approval of the
