"And do you mean to say," we asked,
''that all children arc taught to be acrobats
and equestrians in such a revolting way?"
"No," our friend replied; "oh, no! Some
like it—have good nerves, naturally emulate
each other—and would become exc glent
performers, almost without tuition. But
they are the exceptions. Take Signor
Smitherini, fir instance. and his 'wonder

Reading and Columbia Railroad
A meeting was held at the house of John
W. Gross, Ephrata, on Saturday, the 28th
inst., when Martin Gross was chosen Presi
dent, and Jacob Graver, Secretary. After
the meeting was organized, and the object
of the meeting stated by Joseph Kenig
macher, Esq., one of the commissioners of
above road, a Committee of seven was ap
pointed who reported the following pream
ble and resolutions, which were adopted
unanimously:
In pursuance of public notice the friends
of the projected Railroad front Reading to
Columbia met to-day fur the purpose of
adopting measures to proceed at once with
the subscriptions and making a survey of
I the best routes between these points. This
Isectiun of Lancaster county, embracing a
circle of eight miles, centering at Ephrata,
than which there is none more fertile, highly
improved, and embracing more substantial
resources, than perhaps any agricultural
district of the same extent in this or any
other State of the Union. Within this cir
cle there are located about nc, grist and mer
chant mills. 24 saw mills, 40 stores, 14 tan
neries, besides the usual proportion of other
business establishments, including sescral
iron-works, the Cocalico mill-stone quarries,
an inexhaustible bed of sand and free stone,
equally as good as the Connecticut stone,
and the Ephrata Mountain Springs, fre

from $5,511 to st,so per ton; on this article
one dollar and more per ton may be saved,
and $2 per thousand feet on lumber cn

It is fur these and other reasons we arc anx
ious to be plaeed on an equal footing with
other sections of this county. We are now

it therefore,
Resol red, That, me will exert ourselves to
raise subscriptions to the proposed heading
and Columbia Railroad, and will do all in
cur power to aid in an early Commencement
of this all important improvement, especial
ly to this section of the County, to the whole
of this and the adjoining counties, and we
may add, to the whole community lying
north and smith of this road.
Ros•o/red, That we are in favor of making
an early survey of the best routes flmr a loca
; two of said road; and that we Would re
spectfully request, that the proceedings of
this meeting be published in all the papers
favorable to the enterprise.
By the above it will be seen that the peo
ple along the route of the proposed Lead
ing and Columbia Railroad are awakening
to the importance, to them, of its construc
tion and operation. Are not we, too, of
Columbia, as deeply interested in the suc
cess of this enterprise as the inhabitants of
Ephrata and vicinity? Are we not more so?
Will it not, if completed, add more materi
ally to our prosperity than to that of any
other community on the proposed route?
The fact that the road was pr,tieeted and
the charter obtained mainly by Columbian ,
—we do not mean in this to ignore the in
valuable services of Hr. Konigmacher, of
Ephrata, and others, in obtaining the Legis
lative grant—proves our sense of the ad
vantages likely to accrue to our borough as
a terminus of such a road. The entlinsir•
m.sm with which the meetings in advocacy
of its commencement, during the summer of
'57, were attended, and the fair subscrip
tion made at that time by our citizens, are
evidences that we were willing, by word and
deed, to contribute our share towards its
survey and location, at least—time only ne
cessary preliminary, as we then believed,
and still think, to secure its construction.—
The unfortunate causes which operated to
drive this, with every other enterprise, pub
lic and private, to the wall, are well known.
With the rise of the "panic" came the
fall of the embryo railroad, and it has laid
prone and without signor vitality ever since:
a whole-mile repose, let us hope, and not
the stupor I receding death. By the watch
fulness of those interested, time charter has
been revived and kept alive, through a s-3p
pieta entary Act of the Legislature, and now,
when that great commercial spider, the mer
cantile and speculative interest of New York,
is looking abroad to extend its threads of
iron, centering in its web of brick and mor
tar, is the proper time to push forward our
extension of one of the radii from the great
common centre, with a fair prospect of soo-
ceq..
This movement is properly inaugurated
in the country bordering on the proposed
route. Op;..o,ition—if any there shall be—

rather the agGrandizetnetit of the larger

movement at Ephrata has been warmis

The resolutions, beside appealing directly
to the people to whom they are more partic
ularly addressed, touch s-cry nearly the in
terests of our own citizens. In the enuiner-

of Ephrata SpringQ, in keeping alive the
charter of the road, and in now initiating a
freidi movement through the country, in its
fa ;or, is en example to be noted and fol
lowed. What public-spirited citizen of Co
lumbia will take the load in an effort to
awahen the proper spirit in our town? Let
us hear of a meeting, and with a fair show
of hands on our pact we may so influence
the fate of the good work as to convert it
from a possible and distant, to a positive
and speedy benefit to the town, the country,
and the people.

Mn. IVractm—A few months ago I
bought from my friend; Johnny Hartman,
the painter, a lot of ground, fronting on
Walnut street, and extending back to the
alley on the corner of which and Third st.
liieln the head and front of the High
Constabulary force of the Borough of Col
umbia, has his palatial mansion. When I
purchased, I was under the impression that
I would be entitled to "all the rights, liber
ties, privileges, hereditaments and appur
tanances whatsoever thereunto belonging,
and to all the issues and profits thereof,"
particularly expressed in the deed which
Johnny and his wife were kind enough to
give me, in consideration of the dollars I
gave them. But from the frequent, fanti•
liar and fliendly lillibustcring incursions
made thereon, by men and boys and hobble
dehoys, and the daily despoiling the trees
of their apples, plumy and cherries, the
bushes of their currants, gooseberries and
dowers, end the nightly introduction of
mules to crop the grass and bark the trees,
I am very much inclined to doubt whether
I have any right to anything growing there,
and that all those good citizens are only
claiming their own under the license of the
0-tend Maidesto, which generally gives
authority to every budy to take what they
want; but upon a consultation with those
magisterial dignitaries of the law, 'Squire
Welsh, of the Blue Front, and 'Squire
Ebur, of the three story brick, opposite the
Post Office, I am really assured that I have
an interest in every thing that grows in the
Int, as my friend Johnny Hartman intended
I should have, and that under an express
act of Assembly any person who shall com
mit any depredation in any orchard or gar.
den, or damage any fruit tree, bush, shrub
or grits is liable to a tine and imprison
ment.

A CARD.
rri E members of the German Sunday School
1 having lately made an excursion, the fact
has been animadverted upon by some persons,
having, no doubt a strong imagination, tem
pered with but little charity; led by its power
they have wandered into the regions of fancy,
and in a most unchristian manner, charged
both teachers and children, with a violation of
the rules of sobriety and temperance! This
is a most miserable falsehood, and worthy only
of him who is termed the "Father of lies."—
It may be that some persona visiting the place
may not have been as they should, but even
their fault shrinks into insignificance, when
compared with the malice which marks the
tale of our slanderers:
Those who originated and conducted the
excursion, did so with the sole view to the
happiness and comfort of the children, and
those properly concerned, and of course could
not, nor could be excepted to, exercise a po
lice surveillance over all who might feel dis
posed to visit the grounds. Those desirous of
a further explanation may have it by culling
upon me.
