our borough, celebrated wall the usual con

long, and by a parade of the Cadets of
Temperance in the afternoon. The proces•

turned out well and looked very neat in
their ta , teful regalia. They were hooded
by the Columbia. National Band, and
marched through our principal streets.—
The Lancaster Section took part in the pa
ride, and was composed of a fine looking,
manly, well-behaved set of boys. Previous

presented, by the Ladies of the Order of
Good Tempi:ars, with a handsome Bible.—
The presentation was made through Miss
Susan Lemmun, and the book was received
on the part of the Cadets by Rev. G. M.

Front street, within a few feet of the rail

yielding to the persuasive little tugs of the

This result is a high compliment to our

high appreciation in which he is held 'ey the

prominently before the people, and our
readers must nut tire of our constantly re
eurring to the subject; for it is one of the
greatext importance to the welfare of our
town end citizens. A contributor in
another column, appeals strongly and ably
for interest and movement on the part of
our people, and we will leave in his hands,
this week, the advocacy of the enterprise.
We give, however, the proceedings of the
meeting at Ephrata, on the 30th ult. The
oacial report is as follows:
EPIIRATA, June 30Th, 1859.
A. meeting of persons friendly to, and in•
torested in the construction of the Beading
and Columbia Railroad, was organized by
the appointment of Jos. Konigmacher,
President, and li. M. North, Secretary.
The project was discussed, and on mo
tion the following Committee was appointed
to report resolutions:
C. S. Kauffman, E. Billingsfeldt, Nathan
Worley, Dr. Levi Hull, Peter Martin, A.
Landis, Sebastian Miller.
The following resolutions were reported
and ununimon..ly adopted:
Re,voteed, That the large attendance nt
this meeting of citizens from various parts
of the country, exhibits the interest felt in
the •uhject which has drawn them together,
and affords EVCI y encouragement for the
prosecution ur the enterprise under discus
ion.

The abuse is merely the recorded pro
ceedings of this important meeting. At a
meeting of our citizens held in the Town
llall on list Saturday evening, Mr. North,
for the Committee of Conference, reported
more fully the character and proceedings
of the meeting at Ephrata. It was largely
attended by parties from New York, head
ing, Columbia, and all points of importance
along the proposed route. Every encour
agement was given by the parties from
abroad. and the people on the line of the
road exhorted to push forward the survey
and location, when ample means would be
forthcoming fur its completion. It was do•
tided that Columbia is the only proper
western terminus for the road, and our
people were strongly urged to take the
initititive in the enterprise.
The meeting received •this report very
favorably: and remarks were made on the
importance of early action, by Messrs.
Fisher, Shoch, North, Kauffman and oth
ers. We arc glad to assure our readers
that the true spirit of enterprise has been
aroused, and the good work will be surely
undertaken.

It is very handsomely illustrated, and the
contents are of first rate merit. The "Cos

is published, is an organization for the en
couragement of Art by the distribution of
engravings, oil paintings, statuary, &e., and
extends a fostering care to literature, com
bining the furnishing of our popular peri
odicals at reduced rates, with the distribu
tion of its admirable engravings. The work
itself is well worth subscription.

Reading and Columbia Railroad.
Mn. WRIGIIT:—You are well aware that
several years have elapsed since the Legis
lature passed a law to incorp irate a Com
pany fir th , construction of a Road from
Reading to Columbia; and no people know
better than tho citizens of Columbia, the
absolute necessity of doing, or having
something d ine, to advance the interests
and business of their Borough, which,
within the last seven years have most ma
terially declined. Many of our citizens
sincerely and honestly believe, that no im
provetnent can so well remeky this declen
sion of trade as this Rail-Road, from the
adudtoed fact, that it will open not only to
our lumber and coal trade hut to all other
interests a large tract or region of rich and
fertile country, that has always been and
now is almost entirely sealed against all
trusineos communication with us. If any
one will but look at his map of the State.

That this road will by made may be
looked upon to a fixed fact. Public neces
sity requires it to be made; but the great
lucl•tiuq is, how, when, by whom and
where? because it can and may be made in
such manlier, on such a route, at such a
time anti he such a party, to will not aid
but may materially affect our interests, and
leay.e us worse than we now are. It there
fore behooves us to be on the alert and
make it a matter of common interest and
united determination to do that which is
best to insure the greatest good to the
greatest number in our vicinity; not the in
terests only of one or more individuals, but
the interests of all to the utmost extent; and
for that reason sufficient stock should be
taken, the Company organized, the survey
made, and the road completed on the route,
that will must advance our truest and best
interest, if in so doing we shall in no wise
improperly affect the interests of other
points of the road. In recommending this
we will not be subject to the charge of sel
fishness, for those disposed to make an im
provement act unwisely if in spending their
money they do not secure to themselves a
correspondent benefit.
There is certainly no reason why it should
not be made, but if any one thinks so let
him give in his reasons. It will certainly
injure no one, but must benefit all as it is
intended to do. Some may think and some
have said, it cannot and never will be made.
If all aro of that opinion and determine to
do nothing towards making it, the proba
bility is very strong it will not, unless it be
dune miraculously or" by strangers; bet if
an will say "Corte, let us unite, and make
it fior it nuest be made, oar interests revire it
lo be made," there can he doubt it will
be made. We all recollect it was boldly
asserted, that the R•tilroads from Lancaster
to Ilareisburg, nom Columbia to Middle
town, irom to Balton , ire, fmaii
Y from ]L:rri,hurg to Pius
bu,g, taw Q,Lual from Wrightsville to
,te Unice, never could and never
weeta e made; that money suffi.!ient never
could be r.Lised, and the difficulties were too
graft to be. overcome; yet all these predict
ti ns twued out t be false, fur these lin
provements ware all mode at an expense of
inany tn,llious of dollars, merely because
the bu-ine,s of the country required them,
just as the business of Colombia requires
the road to licading to be male, Can any
man say with truth that it ought not to be
made? The route is an easy one, the ground
favorable, the people tOoug the line friendly
to it, and willing to tale stock and release
their claims for doinag,es. Why then should
ColumMatie hesita te? Let me tell theta
they are losing time. We must come out
boldly and do what our interests require us
to do. before it is too late; for as I said be
fore the road will be made, and there is a
necessity that we should be especially care
ful about its location, else it may, as it can,
and if other interests are consulted will, be
constructed on a route and in a manner not
at all calculated to further, but injure our
interests. Let every citizen therefore coins
forward and take stock. If he cannot take
20 or 10 shares, let him take 8,5, or 3 or if
he cannot take 3 let him take 2 or 1, and
encourage his neighbor and his friend to do
as much as he, or more; but let every one
do his best, and as God prospers - the right,
the day will come, when as citizens of our
Borough we may individually thank our
selves for the manly effort to improve and
protect our suffering interests.

of American Independence; the great day
of days to our nation: on this day those
great miads that could not be subdued by
British tyranny, made that declaration
which eventually gave to us as a nation,
our liberty; and it is a fitting day for you
by the public exhibition of your charueter
as Cadets of Temperance, to declare that
you are free from the worst of all thaldom„•
the bondage of intemperance.
By the exertions at the Good Templars,
your peesent Section of Cadets of Temper
ance was organized; and although the la
dies did not appear in the organization of
your society, we assure you we used our in
fluence toward its establishment; we there
fore feel ourselves closely connected with
you, and united in the same cause.
We are happy to greet so large a number
of the youth of Columbia, pledged against
the greatest evil of our land; and we re
joice, that while so many of the older mem
bers of society stand aloof from the Tern
perance cause we behol I yen, the youth,
banding together against that enemy which
has destroyed, and is still destroying, our
fathers, our brothers and our friends; we
therefore, as those pledged in the same
cause with yourselves, extend to you our
s ncere friendship, and pledge it in the gift
we are about to present.
We offer to you Cle Bible, as the most
worthy of all gifts that can be bestowed;
the best of books, the greatest boon that
was ever vouchsafed to man; the hope of
the world: upon obedience to its teachings
depend the prosperity, welfare, and happi
ness of all; whether as an individual, a so
ciety or a nation.
Allow us, then, to hope that it will be
the guiding STAR of each one of you,
through the journey of life; and may its
happy iatluence be exerted upon all your
actions. Make it your daily companion;
study it well, that you may become ac
quainted with, and understand its teachings;
for in this volume alone can you learn what
you are and what you are to be.

behalf of the men/hors of Itis:ng Star Sec
tion, Nu. 30, Cadets of Temperance, the
Bible presented by the ladies of Hope Lodge,
No. 45, 1. 0. of Good Templar:4, Trusting
you may comply with this sincere request
of your cu-laborers in the great cause of
Temperance, we are fraternally yours in
the bonds of Faith, Hope, and Charity.

Worthy Brother and Sivters:—l received
your note requesting a copy of my address;
in compliance with your request 1 transmit
you a copy of the same, sincerely hoping
that it may du good, and further the cause
of temperance. Yours, truly,

LIDIE MILES,
ANNIE 11.1LnExAN,
Committee
In behalf of the Rising Star Section, No.
30, Cadets of Temperance, of Columbia, Pa.,
1 receive this beautiful present, presented
to them by you for the Ladies of the I. 0. of
Giod Tetnplars, of this place. While ban
ners, flags, wreatbes,and bouquets, the usual
gifts expressive of good will, shall wither,
grow old, and finally pass away, how timely
and appropriate such a gift as this—the
Holy Bible. Its precepts and promises will
never pass away; they are as enduring as
the pillars of Heaven. These boys and
young men want a guide, to direct them
through the stormy scenes of life. They
want a friend in time of trouble and danger
that will "stick el() er than a brother."—
They want a counsellor to instruct them how
to avoid the wiles of the wicked one. They
want a comforter to console them, when pa
rents shall have passed away, to encourage
them to persevere in well doing, and t..) urge
them on to happiness and Heaven, Here
[the hand on the Bible] all these wants are
fully met by the Saviour Jesus Christ.—
Het e they are told of the destructive sin id
intemperance, exhorted nut to look upon the
wine when it is red, for it will bite like at
serpent, and stitng like an adder. Here
they are aQqured that no drunkard shall in
herit the Kingdom of Ilea, en, and a fearful
WO pronounced upon him that putteth the
bottle to his neighbor's lips.
The Cadets are at work to lessen the evil
of intemperance. More than eighty are
united in this good cause. Their numbers
continue to increase and we hope they will
go on increasing until every boy and young
man in Columbia shall be united with them;
and then, if faithful, in less than ten years
they will so completely rero]utionize public
scntimont un this subject that hardly a ves
tige of the foul blot of intemperance shall
be seen in this place. Oh! how desirable
such a result—such a happy era to dawn
upon this place. The wives and children
of drunken husbands and fathers will shout
Amen, let it come! We sincerely thank
you for this precious Look. :day the Cadets
follow its teachings. May the Ladies and
others connected with the Good Tempters
be Clieolltaged to go in. Christians, Phil
anthropists and Patriots wish you God
speed. Now. while the ladies of the United
;es at o at tivoly at work to preserve the
Home of Washington from going to decay,
and to hand that sacred spot down to the
last child that shall breathe the air of lib
erty, so may we assist the Ladies and others•
who are now doing a greater work, in eras
big the foul blot of intemperance that has
so long disgraced the escutcheon' of our
country. When that happy day shall dawn
upon cur laud, then the Fourth of July will
come with renewed interest, Then the pro
longed
shouts of victory will be heard
throughout the length and breadth of the ,
United States, for not one will be left under
the tyrannic sway of Alcohol. If our fore
fathers pledged their lives, their fortunes,
and sacred honors, for the purpose of res
etting us from the usurpation of the king of
England, who would not recognize taxation
and representation as legitimately inter
woven—if fur the accomplishment of this ob
ject thousands arid tens of thousands of our
citizens laid down their lives, what sacrifices
should we not make? what privations should
we notlendure? if necessary, while engaged
in vanquishing King Alcohol, a more cruel
and despotic ruler, whose reign thus far has
proved a greater curse to man than that of
any earthly potentate that has swayed a
sceptre, even with a parricidal hand. Let
us visit the home of the poor drunkard;
wipe away the tears from the burning brow
of the poor wife; comfort the almost father
less children; tell the poor drunkard there
is hops for him if ka will dash away the in
ME
toxicnting cup; tell moderate drinkers that
drunkards do and can only some from their
ranks. Let us labor while the day lasts, for
the night is coming when no man can vrovk.
And we may yet live to see the flag of total
abstinence from all intoxicating drink float
triumphantly in the breeze, encircling un
der its ample folds thourc.nds and tens of
thousands saved from a drunkards life, a
drunkard's death and a drunkard's grave.
HAVE YOU A DISEASED LIVER?
f:l7"The Question, though startling, is sufficiently sug
gestive when the fact is token into comiiderution that
diseases of the Liver have Become most alarmingly
freguentin the United states. Indeed, there are few
orraiduble diseases that are notin some way traceable
to a deranged state of that important organ. Many of
the complaints usually classed under the bend of Con
sumption have their origin in the Liver. “Any remedy
that would insure regularity and healthful action in the
Liver, would be a blessing to mankind!' has been the
exclamation of thousands. That remedy has been
found; it is safe and sure. When a fair trial has been
afforded it, it has never been known to fiiil

EPILEPSY, OR FALLING FITS
We believe we cannot do our readers a more
important service, than by again calling their
attention to that most r emarkable preparation,
discovered by Dr. Seth S. Hance, olpaltimore,
Md., which possesses the power of alleviating
and curing that horrid visitation of man—
Epilepsy, or Pa Pits. In recommending
this preparation to our readers, we do so with
a conviction that we are not degrading our
columns to puff a common patent medicine,
but are placing before them a discovery,
which, if fully known, would probably do
more to alleviate human suffering, than any
invention of modern times. Dr. Hance, in
asking us to notice his preparation favorably
in our editorial department, has sent us for
perusal a number of letters from persons who
have used his pills, and have been cured there
by. All of them speak in the most grateful
and eulogistic terms. One great advantage
this medicine possesses is the fact, that it
can be transported through the mails, thereby
affording every one an opportunity of dealing
directly with the inventor, and also preclu
ding all possibility of being imposed on by a
counterfeit or spurious imitation. Dr. Hance
pays the postage on his Pills to any part of the
country, and will forward them by the return
of mail, on the receipt of a remittance. His
prices are as follows: One box, $3; two do.,
$5; twelve do., $24. All orders for the medi
cine should be addresedd to to Sent S. BA NC!,
