An Erie paper has the following : A j short time since, an affair occurred in a quiet neighborhood in this city, which ! though performed by a cow, has DQt been j equalled in pantomimic effect or farcical execution since the performance by the " Bull in ihc China Shop." A family of; three persons, one lady and two gentlemen, j were startled from a quiet condition of mind about the time they were preparing to retire for the night, by an unusual clutter in an adjoining shed. One of the men, , in his stocking feet, cautiously opened a , door leading from the diuing room to the | outside apartment, and discovered a cow with her head stuffed into a barrel of swill, with her horns fast and in her efforts to ; extricate her antlers she had overturned a table upon which there had been stacked a quantity of tin ware, crockeiy.iron pots, &o. Hence the clatter, which was loud enough and long enough to resurrect the dead. The gentleman at once proceeded to drive away the cause of the disturbance, and in so doing brought a dog into the ring,- who with a bound, fastened upon the cow and caused her to shake off her dishonestly acquired head dress, and with nose down and tall aslant she made a dart through the door left open, into the dining room, where she came in contact with a table laid ready to receive the breakfast of the following morning, and sundry other things, the upsetting and banging about of which crested the greatest confusion imaginable. Meanwhile the other gentleman, who had already retired iu an adjoining bed room, arose in his nether garments, and opened the door of his room to see what was going on outsido. The cow thought the opening of this door afforded her an opportunity to make her cscape, and accordingly rushed into tTie bed-room. Here she met with opposition. The space in the room unoccupied by the bed was scarcely large enough to admit her in full length and so narrow that she could not turn ; besides, the occupant of the "room received her by the horns, und endeavored to back her out. Now commenced the genuine sport of the scene. The little fellow inside was pitching and rearing and swearing at the head of the cow, first on the bed, then in tho alley, and next in close proximity to the ceiling, his limbs and skirts gyrating and flapping around with wonderful velocity, while the man in the dining-room had seized the animal by the tail and was pulling, tugging, laughing and yelling, and tho cow bellowing und lighting desperately. Together the men see-sawed her back and forth some time before they succeeded in backing her out. Finally she was driven into the street, but no firew moving ever created more eon| fusion in the affairs of a household than was here created by tho presence of this Camp neau Middldtown, Md., ) July 9th, 18G3. j Mil. Editor—Sir :—It may be interesting, although sad, to the readers of the Gazette to know a little about the fate of one inorc of our town's men, and one moro of our soldiers ; yes, one of our true and brave soldiers—a soldier in every respect, prompt in obeying orders and doing his duty at all times ; but I am very sorry to say lie is no more, lie fell in one of tho bloodiest battles ever fought on this continent—the battle of Gettysburg. Captain C. II. Flagg : wbero is he today '/ He has gone from time to eternity, and but few arc left in his company to lament his loss : but I can truly say for myself, and for thoso who are left, that wo truly mourn and lament his loss. But there is one consolation left for thoso who arc deprived of his company, a«d that is that he died doing his duty as a soldier and a man. It is supposed he was struck by a shell, or a piece of one ; it struck his right arm, completely shattering it, and also struck his side slightly, was alono when he received the fatal blow, in scarch of his horse. So far as I can learn, they, the General and his staff, had como out of the first and second day's fight all right; they had dismounted, and by some means or other the Captain') horso had gone estrny, und whilo he was in search of him, he was struck and lost for some time, bat they finally succeeded in finding his body. IIis horse was also found, and the General being in need of a horse, rode him, and while he was riding the horso was shot and left on the battle field to die. The Captain's body was buried in the town of Gettysburg, with all the honor circumstances would permit. I cannot give the account of the casualties in our company, as I was not present with them, but I was in tho first duy's fight, and saw the Captain lata in tho evening, and spoko to him. I asked him if'he was all right, and he answered that he was. This passed amid a shower of shot and shell from the enemy as they were advancing at tho time, and we wero retreating ; and in the course of half an hour afterwards they were in possession of tho town of Gettysburg. That was the last I saw of the Captain. The First Lieutenant of our company was also wounded, so that there is not a commissioned officer left in our company, as Lieut. Campbell has been transferred to tho Invalid corps. There is but a dozen or fifteen privates left in the company, and there is but few of those that represent Pittston. It is truly lamentable, but we are fighting for a-good aid just cause ; therefore, wo must bear with patience, and trust tjiat God has mercy upon the many thousands that are in these days ushered from timo to eternity at a moment's notice. I shall uot pretend to give you the details of the battle, as you have them in tho papers before this time, but theic is one thing I can say, and that is, we have given the enemy a good thrashing, and made him retreat iiTa demoralized manner, and by this time have his retreat cut off so that he is bound to fight again before he goes back in Virginia, and surrender, I hope, and lay down their arms aud return to the Union: May God give us a speedy and Gnul close to this cruel war and bless our fuir land once more with peace and prosperity.

He went with the parson's horse every morning to drive the cows to pasture. It was on a piece of table-land some little distance from the village; and here, out of Bight, the neighbors' boys were wont to meet him and "race horses" every Sunday morning. Parson Stoddard heard of it, and resolved to catch them at it and put nn end to the gport. Next Sunday moruing he told Bill that he would ride the marc to pasture with the cows, and ho might stay at home. Bill knew what was in the wind, and taking a short cut across lots, was up into the pasture away ahead of the parson. The boys were there with their horses, only waiting for Bill and his master's mare. He told the boys to be ready, and as soon as the old gentleman arrived to give the word "Go!" Bill hid himself at the other end of the field, where the raco always ended. The parson came jogging along up, and the boys sat demurely on their steeds, as if waiting for " service to begin." But as the good old mare rode into line they cried " Go !" and away went the mare with the reverend rider sticking fast, like John Gilpin, but there was no stop to her or to him. Away, licad of all the rest, he went like the wind ; and at the end of the field Bill jumped up from under the feuee, and sang out, "I knowed you'd beat, massa! 1 knowed you'd beat!"

Sammy was fast sinking, and his cries growing fainter and fainter, had fortunately reached the ear of Parkor Borden, who generously jumped in and fished up the drowning man, just in time to save his life. Sammy shook the water from him, and turned to thank his deliverer, when be saw in the uncertain light that it was no other than his ancient foe. The gratitude depicted in his face changed at once to indignation and disgust. " What sort of a placo is this toWn of Bristol," said he, " that when a PRACTICAL WATCHMAKERS National Hair Restorer!
