a Volunteering. js, readers will notice by to days issue that the Government bounty 6f anil 8400 will cease on the first of There are therefore, but a few days left volunteering under the increased bounties. Our citizens should work diligent- It ly and faithfully to fill the quotas of their respective districts. Do not delay; as delays are dangerous, and there is but barely time enough to work, for those who may improve the same. You have done nobly so far; a little effort now, and all will bo well.

0 o'clock last Sabbath -evening, a most distressing oc- currenee took place at the residence of John and Catharine Lowall, on Cunning- ham street, Butler. A little girl ageil about 15 months, second and youngest child of said John and Catharine, was so severely burned as to etiuse its dcatH at about 1 o'clock 'lie same night. Mr. Lowall is a blacksmith by trade, and was absent at Glade Mills, where he has purchased a small property, and has been working at his trade. A family the name of Miller, lives in the same build- 1 ing.

Mrs. Lowall and Mrs. Miller had been together in the same room with four small children, two belonging to each (am- ily, one a babe of Mrs. Miller's, which was in thecradlc. The two Mothers went another room in the same building, the second from that fn which the cliil- dren were left and down stairs to eat sup- per.

While they were, eating, they were i aroused by the screaming of the babe in the cradle. They ran up stairs to the I room, and to their amazement they were met by a volume of smoke that was al- most suffocating. They rushed in Mrs. Miller picked upth babe, and afterscarch- ing they found the child, Emma, sitting under the bed, with nearly all its clothes burnt off, and the person of the child was burned in a most shock ing manner. The poor child was making no lament or noise, and the last words the child was heard to say.

were "By: By! Ma." Parents should be very careful not to leave small children by themselves. From the best information that we have been able 4o gather, it appears that one of the little had pokeda corn broom into the fire and had drawn it out again, and by some means or other little Emma's clothes were set fire. The wash-board was on fire, as also the bed under which the child taken refuge, in a very short time the building would have been in flames. COM MI'SIt'ATIOXS. For the Citizen, School Exhibition.

A grand school exhibition came oft at Coal ltun Collage. Summit on Friday evening, March 18th, at which I had the honor of being present. On the afternoon, previous to the exhibition, the citizens of the district manifested theirinterest in the cause, bv erecting a grand stage for the beucfitof the students. The performance of Orations, Declamations, Essay Vocal Music; in which the whole participated aud performed their in a manner highly commendable to themselves, their parents, and also to their teacher. They showed their performance, that they appreciated the instruction imparted to them by their i tether; and thus merited the approbation of all true lovers of education.

The ex- 1 crciscs were accompanied with instrumen- 1 tal music, by Lemon, Bergman, and Smith. The exhibition terminated with an eloquent address to the audience, by Mr. Aaron and an address to the scliool, by the teacher. D. A.

Heck. A SPECTATOR. for the Cltlten. The Next President. i Who shall we elect lor the next dent Let sober-minded citizens ponder the question.

It is no time to be rashly nominating, but it is time for everybody to be prudently considering. The nation, just now, is busy with something beside a toilsome task upon its hands, having a bloody sweat upon its brow. But while the blacksmith is ham-'" 112 mering, the soldier is marching, and the I farmer plowing, they may be It is idle to say that because the rebellion is on our hands, therefore we are to ban" ish all thoughts of an approaching change of change that may either be the safety or ruin of thecountry. i Besides, if the country is expected to be able, next summer, to carry on a presidenj tial and and a military campaign, both at once, we see no reason why it is not just as able, this winter and spring, to be, not 1 only conquering the rebellion, but at the same time taking a wise forethought ef the I future; first of principles, and afterwards jof men. Shall Abraham Lincoln be the next President Wc arc all aware of the i trying circumstances under which he was called to the Presidential chair, the many difficulties he had to meet and master.

His whole soul has been engaged in wip. ing treason Trom our land, ridding us of sla very, the greatest evil that exists under our Government; and the restoring of peace upon an honorable and permanent basis. Or shall we say Gen. Graut who is the hero of been successful in I so many battles, he has taken ninety thou: sand prisoners, over four thousand stand of arms, besides trains, and other valua i bios belonging to the rebels. Partyism should be laid aside, and only look to the I electing of a President who will be fully able to examine, and give a wise decision to all the complicated problems will present themselves to him the next four years.

By the way of we may suggest a few difficulties that willprei sent themselves to the public view. Noth- I ing less than the establishment andsccuri: ty of human reconstruction of a broken reupblic; the readjustment of the rights of the states, and of the Fcdj eral Government; the status of the negro, i and his conversion into a citizen (he puni ishment of treason; the reowncrship of Southern lands; the Mexican question; I the Monroe doctrine; the National finances, the fixing uponastandingarmy large enough to defend liberty, and not large enough to menace it; these and many other problems, foreseen and unforeseen, I are the unparalleled difficulties which the next Administration must meet and mas; ter. Those diffieultiesare of such a acter as to require the next President to i be thoroughly educated as a The ship of the State tosses on a rough sea; the bells will soon ring a change fljl watch. Who shall take the next turn af the helm Let it be the safest man to steer in a storm, the surest man to find the I way into port and safe anchor. Give us the wisest head, the I est soul and may God help the ship.

A SOI.DIF.II. The all for 200.000 More Men. Though there have been, for sometime past, sundry intimations that another caH I tor an additional 200,000 men would be made, they were pretty generally regard- I ed by the press and the public as rumors, having their origin in a misunderstood remark of somebody in Washington to somebody in New York, The official document, however, which was i published yesterday, proves that in this in! stance the industrious first whispered about a third call ly heard something. There need not have been so much inj credulity in the premises, we as not only our most competent and ed generals, but now every leading mem; bor of the from the dent himself downwards, are said to be fully impressed with the importance of' putting forth such a ce of force, as will make this campaign the final and i decisive a y.reponaerance of force as wt'l not only defeat, butoverwhelm, and i utterly crifsh out, the rebel armies now arrayed under desperate leaders, who well know that is their last chance in the aame of war, do not think that it is more than simple prudence to hold such a reserve army in readiness as will strike the last prop of hope and render victory not only certain, but, in the manifest hopelessness of resistance, as ate as certain. It is stated that Gen.

Grant above all desires to have just such an irresistible force concentrated at the right points, when i the campaign opens, that there may be no longer any cause or excuse for doubt, hesitation, or delay when movements Aegin, that, havingonce begun, there may be no step backward, nor even the remot-f est vision of such a posibility. We have no doubt that far less than even the 500,000 added to our mies by the two previous calls, now nfflff ly filled, would be amply sufficient to undertake aud make an end of the work before next winter, but if the addition of 200,000 more, will save the squandering of many valuable lives in a protracted it not right, is it not wise, isit not provident, sit not humane to make this call Besides these considerations, which arise i in our minds solely from viewing the case with reference to the certainly formidable forces of the rebellion, raised by the desperate effort of an exhaustive eonscrip. tion, is there not also, as we have already ventured to suggest, another possible explanation of this call in the recent indications of l'rench point unmistakably to au intention, at least a wish, to weaken our Government by dividing its territory, so that the npw empire Mnxmilian. the foster-child of French arabi- tion, may have an ally in the Southern Confederacy of slave-holding aristocrat? aud re-actiouists, against the progress of freedom and democratic institutions. But, be this as it may, in reference to French and Mexican complications, there is still the strongest and most convincing argument in favor of putting forth our utmost force at once, in the fact that such a course will reach the gieat result aimed at the soonest, and with aft economy of life aud money no less deserving of consideration than the economy of time.

Even if the Government and its military advisers have at length fallen into the new error of over estimating the strength of the rebels, and are making unnecessarily great preparations for this campaign, to the exteut, sa Wjf additional call, we will ncverthAls indorse it as being an error on the anfe tide being the most provident, economical, and humane employment of our resources that be made in view of all the contingenciesand daggers inseparable from a state of war.
