~13en.Fioher anal the:pritll,le . It has been industriously circulated in this community, that Senator Fisher Was pot sound on the question of re-building the Columbia. Bridge. We made it our business to. enquire of some of the mem bers atilarriburg, whether there was ;any truth'in the report; and was tuld that General Fisher had carried out the :wishes of his constituents, in reference to the bridge matter, most fearlessly and ,faithfully; and was now doing all :that could be done to further the speedy re .construction of the Columbia bridge.— .General Fisher is decidedly a working member of the Legislature. He does :not write tbr this paper as has been as -serted—we wish that he did, as he is u ...ready -and ,spicy writer. The proceedings which were had in the Senate, together with a letter re .,..ceimed from Senator Glatz, trhich we below ; we hope - will be sufficient :, - to satisfy any sane man that Senator : - Fisher has done his whole duty, and .earried out the wishes of our citizens to tile letter. Ma. FISHER, having - -asked and ob ;blued leave to make a short statement, said : Mr. Speaker, it is known to many .members.of this Senate that I came here liaving in.charge a bill to build a bridge :over the Susquehanna river at Colum bia. When the bill was read in place by me, it was referred by you to the .Committee on R. R. I regarded the re ference at that time, and do so still, as ,entirely proper, because the juterests of :the Penn'a R. R. Co. were particularly identified with the building of that bridge. I have attended to the interest of the bill as faithfully as I know how. I appeared before the - Comtuittee and made a statement covering the entire ground, and supposed thatl was doing all iu my power to advance the interests of my constituents. Last week, sir, a conEnittee from the counties of York and Lancaster visited this Capitol, and I had interviews with them, which I sup posed were entirely satisfactory. They went home and misrepresented me ; and the other day I picked up a paper pub lished in our town, it is true, with but .a limited circulation. I found in that paper an article, a portion of which I beg leave to read,'as follows: "We are also informed by said Commit tee that they arc in possession of facts wbielisinduces them to believe that a Sen ator from this county, who is a strong ad vocate of said bill, while among his con .stituents, has his influence locked up in state quo to say the least of his actions, while in the Senate; that in fact the indi cations are that his influence is on the wrong side for the good of Lancaster and York Comities. The inhabitants of these counties have been put to great inconveni ence during the last four years for the want of a bridge at this point; other parts of the State are inclined to grant them re lief, and should our Rept- , sentatives even falter in this matter, they must remember that these are revolutionary times, that during such times, certain acts may be come a military ne.:essity and certain lo calities may become too warm for the con venience of those who falter." Now, sir, I deny that I have faltered in my devotion to the interests of my .constituents, and as fur making a place too warm cur me, 1 would advise them to try it on. I rise Dow for the. purpose of calling the attention of this Senate and the counties to the fact, and I appeal to the members of the it. R. Cow., twits hon ored Chairman, to my friend front Erie, [Mr. Lowry], to my friend from Schuyl kill, [Mr. Randall], ,and to the other members of the committee,to say whether I did or did not prosecute that bill before the Com., with proper zeal. BILLINOYELT. Mr. Speaker, I would ask if any name is given in that art icle ? MR. FisriEß. There is no name given, but as a matter of justice to myoelf, ask that the members of the Committee state whether I have done my duty or not. MR. LOWRY. Mr. Speaker, the at tack made upon the Senator limn Lan caster,,[\lr. Fisher], in the paper just receired, is in every respect unjus.tifiable He has done all he could, to carry out the wishes of his constituents in refer ence to this bill, and we have agreed to report the bill to-day. The whole spirit of that article is unjust towards the Senator. Ma. GRATIA.M. Mr. Speaker, it is not, lam aware, in good taste to speak of what transpires in Corn., but it is due, I think, to the Senator from Lancaster t..) state, that at the very first meeting that the It. lt. Cum., held after the reception of the bill referred to, he appeared be fore the Com., and was very urgent to have the bill reported immediately. and gave a variety of reasons urging its im portance to his people and insisted upon having it reported. It was held over for consideration by the Corn., fur a few days, since which time the Cont. - finally agreed to report it and I think it will be report ed this evening, as committed. - Na. WHITE. Mr. Speaker, I was very sorry to hear the article read by my friend, the Senator from Lancaster [Mr. Fisher], and I think it eminently proper that every Senator here should be care ful of the reputation of his fellows upon this floor, and should always cheerfully bear testimony to duty faithfully perform ed, when such has i been the case. I take pleasure in rising in my place, after hearing the case of the Senator from Lancaster, and 'stating that I know, from his conversation and intercourse with my self, as Senator from tbawestern part of the State, that be has manifested great interest in representing its claim before the committee. In conversation and intercourse with him, lie has atall times manifested a commendable anxiety on the subject, and I believe the charges are untrue and unfair towards him, and I wish it to go on the Record as coming from me. - • FIAIMISBURG, Feb. 13th , 1867. M. A. .111 . RAMBO, Editor Co lumbia Sp —D ear Sir :—Having understood that some of the citizens, of Columbia have censured General Fisher for a want of zeal in his advocacy of the Columbia bridge bill, I take pleasure in saying that ever since the commencement of the Session he has labored earnestly and efficiently in its support..

EDITOR'S CON VENTION.—T he Altoona Tribune advocates an Editorial Conven tion, and recommends Harrisburg as the place of holding it. Do not hold it in Harrisburg, or you will accomplish nothing ; the thing has been tried. Let it be held in Columbia, T Zi CZ LS ter, 1 - 1. ei44-11i3 , or any other place but Harrisburg, RELIGIOUS AWAKENING : —The series of religions meetings being held in the M. E.

We trust that this may prove true. The prospect certainly was never better. .

TUE PITTSBURGII DAILY DISPATCH. —One of the best papers in the West, now comes to us in quarto form, and greatly enlarged - and improved, and printed on new type. The Dispatch is edited with marked ability, which recommends it to public favor and patronage. DESTRUCTION OP OUR ICE .BRIDGE OVER TILE SUSQUEIIANNA.--The mild weather during the week, accoMpanied by copious showers of rain, had the effect of raising the river to such an extent that the ice yielded to the pressure, and a general break-up took place on Thursday. The weather was very foggy, and persons Could not see but a few yards from shore, otherwise the spectacle would have been grand. The only damage done, was to the Susquehanna Iron Company's wharf, which was torn up considerably, and in it moment huge cakes of ice were piled up many feet high; some of the ice was from 12 to twenty-Live inches thick. At the breast of the dam there is an immense mountain of ice, which by actual measurement, is thirty feet high. A large quantity of ice is still running, bat no further datnagd is anticipated. • THE DOG LAW.—Our prompt and efficient Chief Burgess requests that all owners of registered clogs comply with the 3rd Section of the Ordinance, relating thereto, which reads as follows : " All owners of registered dogs, shall have a collar, or chain, with the owner's name engraved thereon and affixe.l tosaid dog's neck." About fifty dollars in fines have been collected, lately, from poisons violating the dog law. This shows what little at tention has been paid to our Borough laws. We are glad to know that we now have an officer who will see that the Ordinances are enforced, and who will do his duty without fear or favor.

Gortlen bought two houses for $1,030.00; Johu McLaughlin boUght two houses for $1,003, and Joseph Tyson bought two small houses for $970.00. NUMBER TUE LI OUSES.—It always seemed a mystery to us why the houses in Columbia were not numbered. The benefits to be derived from it are obvious. If the name of each street was put up at every corner, and the houses numbered, a stranger coining to town could then -tell the place he wanted to find ; as it is, he has to ask the name of every street he goes into. This should not be the case, and we hope our Council will pass an to have it done, as the cost will be but trilling, and the benefits tube derived from it are uuanv. FATAL ACCIDENT.—We understand from a gentleman just from Cumberland County, Pa., that the pond bank at the Cal edonia Ore Mines, Franklin County, Pa., caved in on Thursday afternoon, of this week, burying sixteen of the workmen.--, Six had been taken out dead, up to yester day noon, the other ten had not been reached yet. These works are owned by Hen. Thaddeus Stevens: A story is told of a young man in NV”ightsville, who was crossed in love,and attempted suicide recently, by taking a close of yeast powder. Ile immediately rose above his troubles, and came to Co lam bia.where he purchased a pair of those handsome bootsat the store of I. 0.

Romantic Episode of the War. General Sheridan sent, a few days ago, to Miss Rebecca Wright, of Winchester, Va., an elegant gold watch, an exquis itely wrought Chain, a brooch and charms. The brooch is ofgold, beautifully wrought into a gauntlet, set with pearls. One of the charms, as a correspondent informs us, is a sword set with very valuable diamonds. Accompanying this magni ficent gift was an autograph letter from General Sheridan, acknowledging Miss Wright's services, which led to the Gen eral's success at Winchester, in the battle of the 19th of September, 1564. Miss Wright was a young Quakeress, well known oilier faith in a united nationality, and understood to be willing to aid the cause at any sacrifice. When General Sheridan was in great doubt how to act he sent a scout to the lady, who, writing upon a slip of paper which she enclosed in tinfoil, directed the scout to place it in his mouth, that it might escape the enemy's search, and thus furnished the information that enabled the General to achieve his victory. - —Pretty •red skirls. and black dresses; scolloped at the-bottom—the black being elevated about three intilies above the red—are quite fasbienable.just now. —High. top boots, small eiinOline, and short dresses, are becoming fashionable among some of the ladies of our large cities. —A bill posted on the walls of a country village announces that " a lec ture will be delivered in the open and' a collection made at the door to de fray expenses. —lt is said the total cost of A.

His health was restored in a very short time, mid no return of thc disease has been appre headed, for all the symptoms quickly disappeared, and his present weight is more titan two hundred pounds. Since his recovery, he has devoted his attention exclusively to the cure of Consumption, and the diseases which are usually complicated with it, and the cures effected by his medicines have been very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr. Schenck makes professional visits to several of the larger cities weekly, where he has a large concourse of patients. and it is truly astonishing to see poor con sumptives that have to be lifted out of their car riages, and in a few months healthy. robust persons.
