Before they left the woods they were treated to a shower of rain, enabling them to appreci ate the benefit of pure, cold water. SAILING.—On Tuesday evening last several parties were sailing over the briny deep. Nothing can give greater enjoy ment than a sail by moonlight on the Sus quehanna, providing that you have the necessary appendages to sing sweet an thems. It is also relished to a greater ex tent if you are not obliged to handle an ear, as the operation undoubtedly does away with the poetry part of the excursion. - MONEY ORDE3 OFFICE.—The Post t Office in this place has been made a money order office and will begin to issue . orders on the 6th of August.

HINT FOR THE L.A.DIES.--,The credulity of women on the subject of being Toyed is very gr ; they often mistake a common liking for a particular regard,and on this foundation build up castles in the air, and 411 them with all the treasures of their bright hopes and. confiding love.— But to look handsome and neat, and be loved as they should be loved, they must buy their,dyess goods at the store of I. 0. pruner. .He has an elegant assortment on A.TTEIVITT TO COAIMIT have been informed that a woman living in the suburbs, attempted to "shuffle off this mortal coil" by taking two ounces of laudanum.

TT seems that there is a great rivalry in the two base ball clubs or our town,each club trying to outdo the other. The " Co lumbia" think it an easy .matter to beat the "Shawnee." Both clubs are made up of the very best material and when the match game comes off it will be an e~- elting nee., It is said that the "Columbia" is about to get a full club dress and we would here inform them that the very best and cheapest place to get their new suit is et the store of E. Worrell & Co., 819 Arch Street. Philadelphia. They have just the material Suited for base-ballers. NICE.—On Thursday afternoon last, a couple of our young, bloods hired a team and thade a trip to the Base Ball field,aud from there to Ileises' Woods, intending to bring home a couple of ladies. They ar rived safely and joined in the closing ex ercises, bat when the time arrived to bid adieu to the enchanted spot, - they found to their disappointment that their horse was fiactious and too familiar with his hoofs. The ladies became frightened ; the gents alarmed, but " 'twas for no use," so they were compelled to.part, the ladies taking the train and the discomfitt:ed gents "bring: ing - their unmannerly beast to town in, solitude and vexed in spirit. SPLENDID WRITING FLUID.—We have been using, for some time Fahnes tock's Nonpariel Writing fluid, and we consider it better than any ink manufac-: tured in this country, and greatly superior to Arnold's London Ink, as it will not mould, flows freely from the pen, and turns a beautiful and lasting black: It is destined to take the place of alt . other writing fluids.

It reflects.great credit upon the author. The book describes the Falls of Tanghannock, situated near Cayuga Lake' in Tompkins County, N. Y. It is the most beautiful waterfall in the United States. The chan nel is 400 feet deep,". while the stream flows perpendicularly 215 feetinto a rocky basin, thus forming a cataract_ of more than fifty feet higher than Niagara. Pleas ure seekers should, by all means visit this spot. =l:= . BALL.—II the' past week the 'topic ofcOiciversation has been " Base Ball." -The "Shawnee Club" played their introductory game on Monday last and were very successful. A. second game was I played on Wednesday. On Monday eVeifing another club known as the "Columbia" was organized and is composed of a good set of athletic young inen t 'and we would say to the "Shawnee" :1,13.at it would be well for them to keep an 'eye open or this club may prove a forrdi .fiable rival. Its officers are ; PreS't 461 1 ; P, : Gbssler ; Vice Prest.—B. F. Mullen ;. Secretary—Fred Williams ; Treas,—L. M. Williams ; Directors—A. A. Braidwood, F. P. Farrel, W. N. Williams. The "Susquehanna," composed of young boysrplay in the rear of the M. E. Church and understand the rules of the game per fectly. They have adopted a neat uniform and made a very good appearance. With three clubs in this place we opine that the cry of "exercise" for in-door folks will be done away with. Let them rattle their bones over a ten-acre field and in the following morning they will conclude that they had exercise enough to prevent de cay. Let a worthy spirit of emulation sieze hold of the SWl.Wiled and Columbia, and in a short time our citizens can have the satisfaction of beholding a match game —then lathe Athletics and all other crack clubs look well to their laurels, Police Cases before Samuel Evans, E9q. - —Com vs. Benj.

McGinnis for shooting David_Arrmstrong, of Marietta, in the leg with a pistol. ball, The facts of the case, as we are informed, are as fol lows ; The colored people of this place held pic-nic in . the woods on Thursday last. About noon the defendant, a white man, Chestnut Hiller,came amcng them and in sisted.,:apon getting. upon the music stand to play the fiddle. Being under the influ ence of liquor he soon raised a "muss," when he was ejected therefrom. He then sent some two miles to his home for the pistol, after receiving which ho went upon the platform and attempted to dance with some of the females thereon when he again created a disturbance. Arrpstrong,xlm is acquainted with the Defendant, went up to him and urged him to go away and not make a fuss. Armstrong turned and went about sixty feet from: the -defendant when he snapped4lpistol at hi ni.his loot slipping which caused.him to fall upon his knee.— He then firedand shot Armstrong in the leg below the-knee. Dr. Bruner extracted the ball. Th'e wound seemed to• be very painful, but with care - the patient may re cover. We do not wish to make any com ments upon the ease, bt*present, the facts, from which our readeri can draw their own conclusions. • In delimit of bail, the defendant was committed to Jail to answer. WE copy the following from the Read ing Daily Times. It is from the profile pen of our modest young friend,John D.Mish ler, Esq., of the Times, who has been rus-• ticating through portions of. the great county of Lancaster. He touched at Co lumbia and hear what lie says of our town; " We arrived at Columbia at 11.51 A. M. just in time - for an early dinner. We stopped at the Washington House, corner of Front and Walnut streets, Joseph H. Black, Esq., proprietor. ThiS is a fine four story building, fronting, the Susquehanna, of which it commands a beautiful view. For tt.cellent accommodations, polite at tendance and reasonable charges, we can heartily recommend the Washington House. Here we had the pleasure of meet ing our friend Dr. S. C. Ermentrout, who has recently located in Columbia, with flattering prospects of success. After din ner we started out, under the escort of our medical friend, to view the town. During our perigrinations we called at the office of the Columbia JS'pg, and made the ac quaintance of its able editor. Columbia has a population of 7000 or more,and boasts Gas Works, Water Works, a Town Hall Odd Fellows' Hall, a number of handsome churches, some large mercantileestablish meuts, vast Iron works and a great many elegant residences fur a town of its size.— The magnificent bridge which spanned the Susquehanna at this point, and Which was destroyed by the rebels several years ago, has not been rebuilt. The piers aro still standing,and are owned by the Penna., R. R. Co. Communication With the opposite shore is bad by means of a steamboat, which plies betwden Columbia and Wrightsville. Having done Columbia, we returned to our hotel, and employed our time in look ing at and admiring the majestic Sitsque banna; and the beautiful wooded banks dnd verdant fields beyond. We took our eparture at 3.42, arrived at Reading at 6 P. M., well pleased with one short jaunt, arid convinced that it would be difficult to crowd more enjoyment into two days.

Is he who strikes his wife guilty of an assault and battery and punishable by law and imprisonment? According to what I have been taught, the husband has no more right to strike or abuse his wife than he has to strike or abuse any other woman or man Then why is it clone; or permited or tol erated? I bold that any man who assaults and beats his wife or any other woman is a brute, and should not only be frowned upon by all good and respectable people, but shunned and prosecuted to the extent of the law. The offence is so groat, one can scarcely believe that any man in Columbia would be found low and mean enough to be guilty of, yet it is asserted that every now and then some one or more shameless and ill-contrived brutes do beat their wives with their fists and otherwise ,misuse them in an unmanly manner. For cne I would not hesitate,upon a repetition of the offence, to lay hold of such a scoun drel and help to ride him on a rail or drive him out of town. Such a man deserves not the custom of a decent: neighbor, nor toleration in good society'. -" • Letter from Maytowu. DE MI Si' :—Being surprised that no one replied to your correspondent, " :Nlot olena, and fearing that he will do him self some personal injury should he dis cover that his neighbors consider him of so little accountas not to notice his bark ing, I, in pity for him, i.e , for his wound ed feelings, shall take chargtS of the soar gentleman.

It was unoxpeeted and premature,from the fact that he very lately held the position of Ordnance Sergeant for a small battery of smooth-bore brass field pieces. Upon inquiry, however, we tound it to be true. Ile has a commissioned staff of old-bronzed vet'rans.

We have at this time a singular case in this vicinity which has assumed a chronic form. The Drs. pronounce it "soured," prOduced by the manufacturer becoming sour instead of the preparation designed for vinegar.— The truth is the flop in the Armory was well attended by till elite of the town and everything passed off pleasantly and all enjoyed themselves elegantly, The re freshments were a mutual contribution by the Ladies.

Front, ;Union., Perry Sr, Mill streets at the points where they are crossed by the railroads are in a Very bad condition, so much_ so as to greatly impede the traveling public. We think that entirely too much time has _ been spent in rebuilding and completing the railroads across said streets. That part of the Health ordinance requir ing the gutters in front of stores, private residences and lots to be kept clean by the occupants or , owners thereof is in many instances disregarded. It is ab solately necessary that it should be strictly en forced. or else repealed, and the Supervi sor ordered to clean them immediately. T. It SUPPLEIg, P. GOSSLER, • Road Com.

BOULEVARD 1 1 The New "Boulevard" Skirt is the LATEST INVENTION, and for style and shape, is UNIQUE & UNEQUA.LED. The peculiarity of this beautiful gar ment consists in its having a French Yoke (gore shaped) attached to the waist-band, both of which are of fine English Sateen. The effect of the Yoke is to lengthen the back, taper and give a more graceful slope to the dress producing a flowing and beau tiful train and causing tLe over-skirts and dress to fit more closely to the form just below the Waist, affording ease and com fort to the wearer. These elegant Skirts attained a reputes tion for styli which is peerless, and for in trinsic merit they are unsurpassed. AAR Pon. "BOULEVARD" TRAILS, WITH .PRENCIT ELASTIC SPRINGS.

M;SEIDLE, R - WaTi l IW : °lMl Cured by Nishler's Herb Bitters I' ' When Mishler's Bitters were first intro duced to the public the proprietor did not feel justified in recommending it as a spe cific for Cholera. During the fall at 1865. Dr. Mishler received the following note from Jacob L. Baker, Esq., of Lancaster Pa., a member of the Philadelphia College of. Pharmacy. Mr: Baker had a great deal of experience in the treatment of Cholera is a druggist of sixteen years standing,was Hospital Steward in the Jefferson Hospital, Philadelphia, for three years, and is withal a gentleman of undoubted integrity and one in whose statement the most implicit confidence can be placed : Lancaster, November 3d, 1865. Dr. Mishler—Dear Sir:—Knowing' that the Cholera with its dreadful ravages is now upon our land, and knowing that no medi cine now in our country possesses such a caloric influence "which is the vital reme dy for all diseases of this kind," as the Bitters you now making I . request you to prepare such a quantity of your bitters as would suit all demands, as I assure you they will be an invaluable remedy, and will be hailed as a blessing by all who will use it. Yours respectfully. JACOB L. BARER Being thus urged, and having noticed the Bitters were constantly curing the most violent cases of Diarrhcea, Cholera Morbus and kindred complaints,Dr. Mishler at last offered his compounds as a cure for Cholera The result has exceeded his most sanguine expectations and fully justifies all that Mr. Baker says in his note. It certainly proves that Mr. Baker's practical knowledge of medicine far exceeds that of most doctors who too often dose their patients with de leterious drugs on some absurd theory.— For the purpose of showing that Mishler's Herb Bitters will cure Cholera we give below a few facts. All intelligent persons who have investi gated the origin of cholera, agree that it is caused by poison introduced and generated into the systeth by impure water, damp ness, filth and over-crowded rooms with deficient ventilation. This is proved by the fact that cholera always rages worse on board of ships where all of the above causes are found more or less combined. To cure cholera, and also to prevett it,it is necessary to neutralize this position, and that Mishler's Bitters will do this is proven by the following : The steamship Virginia, arrived at the Port of New York a hont the middle of April with cholera a board a number of the passengers having died during the voyage with this complaint. Among the passen gers were a family named Schmith, from Baden, Germany. This fluffily was at tacked cholera. Fortunately for them they had friends living in this city (Lan caster, Pa.,) who knew the virtues of Mish lees Bitters and who procured a bottle and sent it to the Schmith family. When this package arrived at' Quarantine,the doctors examined it and confiscated the contents. Another bottle was procured and packed in a more secure manner: it safely reached the Schmiths. On its arrival aboard the Vir ginia, Henry Schmith and Christ. Schmith were both laboring under choleric symp toms: Mrs. Marcia Schmith, wife of the former was very bad, not expected to re cover, and a son had died of the dread com plaint and had been buried theday previ ous. It was in this plight a bottle of Mish ler's Bitters, sent forth like an Angel of Mercy found the poor Schmith Henry Schmith was fhe first to try it, and so instantaneous was the relief he experi enced that he gave itto his wife and brother both of whom it at once relieved. They used the entire content's of the bottle and all three were so mach relieved that the physicia6 permitted them to leave the Virginia,after being confined at quarantine aboard that scourge ship forty-two says.— The Schmiths proceeded to their relatives in Lancaster, and at an early opportunity called on Dr. Mishler to express their grati tude for the timely relief they bad found in his Bitters. Mr. Henry Schmith stated that all the compounds the doctors bud given him did no good, but that one glass of Mishler's Bitters made him feel like a new man, warming his whole system, giving him a healthful heat and causing him to perspire freely. His statement was substantially was substantially as given above, and he further said that if the doc tors had not kept the first bottle froin reaching him, hie, son would yet hrve.been living. Mrs: Schmith was still weak from the effect of cholera, but the continued use of the Bitters were most surely restoring her accustomed vigor. It is not to be expected that regular M. Ps. will admit that any remedy not to be found in the Dispensatory will cure Chol era or any other complaint, but candor compels Dr. D. H. Bissell of the Cholera Hospital ship " Falcon" to admit that he believes Mishler's Bitters to be a " very good Tonic." In reply as to a case of Bit ters that was sent to him by a well known gentleman of Lancaster, he writes as fol lows : Hospital Ship Falcon, Quarantin, New Yorkjune ith .1.806. George S. Rowbotham, Esq.—'Dear Sir : Yours of the 23d, inst. is to hand. In re ply, I beg leave to say, that I received the case of Bitters you sent me for trial Yzc., that I gave them to the convalescents in Hospital. I believe them to be a very good tonic Bitters, well adapted to all cases requiring Tonic remedies. 1). H. BISSELL, Physician, Hospital Ship "Falcon." This letter from Dr. Bissell,just after the reception of the Bitters, and before he had time and opportunity to thoroughly test their wonderful medicinal properties is considered an important endorsement, as that gentleman to-day occupies the most important position of any physician in America. The passengers and crews o emigrant and merchant vessels that arrive in the Port of New York from foreign coun tries,are subject to his inspection and con trol, and the great experience he has had in the management of that dreadful dis ease, Cholera, gives an endorsement by him an unusual importance. This letter together with the statement of the Schmith Ihuiily—who while in the Steamer Vir ginia, were under Dr. Bissell's control, shows what the Bitters have done and can do. Another case of Cholera cured by Mish ler,s Herb Bitters is that of Mr. Pearsol of York county, who,after suffering severely from all the symptons of Cholera, finally became collapsed and while in this state, (the doctors stating that ho wtu beyond re lief) a friend administered freely,Mishler's Bitters. The effect was instantaneous ; heat was generated in the body, perspira tion was induced and after using one bat tle Mr. Pearsol was entirely restored. MiShler's Bitters cures Cholera by coun teracting the poison which is the cause of the disease. Poison in the system,whother generated by bad air, filth, &c., as in Cholera, or introduced by the bite of a venomous snake or mad dog will be ex pelled and all bad symptons allayed by the use of Michler's Herb Bitters. The above proves this to be the fact in Cholera and the certificate of Mr.Rhineliart proves that Mishler's Billers will cure the bite of a polsonouTsnako: Lancaster, July 4th, 1.865. Mr. B. Mishler—Sir:—About eightweeks since I was bitten in the left hand by a snake, but at the time did not know of what species it was. Immediately after the bite my hand swelled to a very tlarge size, and the poi Son appeared to be work ing up my arm. I suffered great pain in my hand and arm; I had to quit work and was afraid I would be compelled to have my hand amputated. I came to you, and by your advicowashed my hand and arm with your Herb Bitters at the same time taking it inwardly. In eleven days I .was able to go to work again. The poison was all drawn out and Mishler's Herb Bitters was the only medicine or application that I made usc- of. Mr. Christian. Burns, a near neighbor of mine, went out a day or two after to the place where I was bitten, and killed what I believe was the same snake that bit mo as he caught within five yards of the spot where I was bitten. It proved to be what is called a copper snake; at any rate, whether it was the same one that bit me or not—one thing is certain— that your Bitters cured the bite of a snake in my case for which I shall ever be thank ful, as I believe it was the means of saving my hand, I shall be pleased to personally satisfy any one of the truth of the above. yours.
