Bat—every medal has its reverse side— what a pity: In the midst of ell these rejoicings, and just as great things were in contemplation for /Annus, who seems to have been re garded as a second Joan of Are, just when one may suppose the Prussian colonel was beginning to find leisure to prosecute his romantic suit, lu! the French reter .ed and took Luneberg. Dire event! which the po. r Lanebergers deplored, and which was per fect rein to our heroine, whose temporary elevation had served to point her out as a mark for the vengence of the infuriated French soldiery. Johanna, thrown down from her lofty pedestal, was, metaphori cally speaking, obliged to grovel in the mud. and literally might hive been trampled to death except fur hiding herself, which she did fur many days in a durk, dismal cellar, indebted fur sustenance solely to the good offices of neighbors, and to Caroline. who l.nought her mill from Grimm, and who, u 'noticed and unrewarded,' was no doubt much happier than the heroine cowering in her dismal cellar expecting hourly dea:l: or worse. But this terrible condition, which lasted many bitter days, was terminated at length by the report of a large body of Prussians advancing on Laneberg; and now, as the French at last ecncuated Luneberg, our heroine unco more emerged from ber ob scurity, and threw ber.elf at the king's feet. Her sorro - wv ended there. Her me:its were at one recognized; she was patronized by some of the female copiections of her Prussian admirer. Following the army subsequently into Prussia, site was at once placed on full-pay of a colonel, and sent to npension to he educated for her future rank in lifs—a Prussian nobleman's spouse.

Did she ever think of Caro line Burger, in the latter's obscurity, or aid the comrade who shared her peril, but not her good fortune? It is believed not. She whom we have called Caroline lived and died, obscure and humble, perhaps not less happy; eon her real name was not known by the old inhabitant of the Sehioss Lune berg, from whose lips this narrative was gathered years ago, and who could boast of baring both seen and spoken to the famous heroine of Luneberg, Johanna Ste gen, by no means the first, nor in ail likeli hood the last, to whom fortune has called in a fit of caprice, and loaded trill numer ous favors.

The varieties of this standard vegetable gen erally raised in this neighborhood have been cultivated in the same soil so long that they hate dz4enerated to "email potatoes and few to the hill."

The Reading and. Columbia Railroad. Since the completion of the survey of this important road, and the announcement of a liberal subscription of stock on the part of the people along its proposed line, a compe titive spirit in regard to its location and western terminus has been aroused, and as sumes the questionable shape of newspaper correspondence. Sundry parties, learned in the topography of our neighborhood have settled to their own satisfaction that the road must be built thus and so, and that the terminus must necessarily be fixed to suit their individual interests, or those of their especial localities. Differing materially in their conclusions they agree perfectly in their main argument, viz: that the road cannot and must not terminate at Columbia; they therefore rush into print, their com munications appear in the Evening Express —and there is, happily, an end of them.— Gentlemen need give themselves no trouble concerning the terminus of the line: Colum bia is a point indicated, not only by the charter, but by consideration for the best in terests of the undertaking, and to Columbia the road is bound to come. It is not worth an argument to prove this, but it may be as well to con ect a mis-statement of these ter minal X. Y. Z.'s, which, if allowed to in crease with its past rankness of growth may presently heave up Chestnut Hill to Alpine elevation, and sink our beloved Columbia much lower than her sins deserve. The cut through Chestnut Ilill will not be a long “fo ty-foot cutting," nor will the gradient in descending our town very nearly approach one hundred feet to the mile, The grades will not exceed those on the Northern Cen tral Railway between York and Baltimore, nor will they equal those of the Pennsylva nia Railroad. We admit the cutting throu"h Chestnut Hill to he the most formidable ob stacle on the whole route, yet not so great a one as to justify a thought of de‘iation from the direct natural line connecting the two points—Reading and Columbia—and thesis- lection of a less favorable and important point than the latter fur a western terminus. With regard to the other and chief sub ject of agitation, the choice of location fur the route between the two fixed terminal points, while we encourage no unnecessary circuitousness in a line that is destined to be come a principal through route of travel between Now York and the South, we advo- I Gate the accommodation, so far as may c/n -sistezaly be, of the many thriving towns of our county now cut off entirely from direct railroad communication with city markets. We especially hope that the claims of towns I of our own neighborhood may receive every consideration, not only for their own sakes, but fur the interests of our borough. A railroad communication with Manheitn and I that rich section of country would secure for us many advantages, and a trade now mo nopolized by Lancaster. The inhabitants of Manheim are in earnest, and offer a lib oral subscription as inducement to make the town a point. Mr. Lyons' survey touched that borough, and should his notes when worked up show a favorable line over the country examined by his corps we shall hope to see our towns eventually connected by bonds of iron. The inhabitants of the place exhibit so liberal a spirit that every encouragement and aid in securing to them the desired location of the road by way of 3lanheim should be extended by our citi zen,. We leant that as soon as the instalment of ft% e dollars per share on the stock already subscr.bed can be called in, letters patent will be obtained and a permament board of Directors and Officers of the road will be elected. The location of the line will then be proaeoded with, and, we hope, the work fairly started that is to end in the connection of the towns of Reeding and Colombia by rail. Tat GREAT ST.CAMILR.—Not the Great Eastern, she is about run in the ground; we have beard enough of her. We are about to refer to a craft of more interest and importance to our readers—we mean the vessel which may now be seen steaming over the waters of our river, yclept Cot.. A. S. °USN. On Saturday last mach excite ment was created on Front street by the apparition of astern-wheel steamer leaving our shores and heading for York County. We rushed with the rest to witness the phenomenon, and on inquiring into the source of this steam monster learned that it was a spirit conjured up by the spells of the machinists of the Columbia Manufac turing Company, assisted by some other of our enterprising citizens. The vessel is, as we here said, a stern-wheel steamer, some twenty-three feet long and about seven feet wide. She is driven by two neat two-and a-half-horse-power engines, built at the shops of the Manufacturing Company, and is intended as a pleasure boat by the own ers. Her carrying capacity is, apparently, only bounded by her deck surface, for when we saw her she waspacked with passengers, and making resonable headway under her load. This boat cannot claim the loner of being pioneer in our steam navy, although the only one nt present on our waters. Many years ago, when we "followed the river," our friend, the late Isaac Pusey, with his brothers, owned a little craft of their own construction, which was driven by a miniature steam engine, in which we frequently had the patience and persever ance to cross the river. It was a boyish plaything, built by boys, and the source of more genuine pride and pleasure than, possibly, the Great Eartern herself. We recall the boat with kindly remembrance, and •:laim fur her precedence of the present craft. The Cot. GREEN is a very creditable evi dence of the spirit of her projectors and builders. She is a novelty on our river, and adds what we have always wanted to see, a steam pleasure boat plying on the waters of the Susquehanna. We congratu late the owners on their enterprise. FAIR or THE LANCASTER COUNTY AGRI CULTURAL AND MECHANICAL. SOCIETY.—This exhibition has been held in Lancaster du ring the present week, and has drawn to that city large numbers of visitors. We have been unable to visit it ourself, but learn that the attendance has been large. We hope to see the names of some of our townsmen among the successful competitors for premiums.

PETERSONS' DETECTOR.—The Detector for October contains a list of 114 now Counter feits fssued during the month of September. The public is especially warned against dangerous counterfeit fives on the City Bank and Bank of Commerce, both of Philadel phia. The immense number of counterfeits with which the country is flooded renders a Detector a necessary protector to every bus iness man. The most effectual is Petersons; which is issued by T. B. Peterson & Broth. ers, Phila., at one dollar per annum for the monthly, and two dollars fur the semi monthly edition. FARUER AND GARDENER.--We give the new candidate fur public favor e more than general cordial reception. A correspondent two weeks since commended the enterprise and hoped for its success. We think we find evidence in the October number, which has just reached us, of the determination of the editor to make it an original and useful alcicultural monthly. He gives us original matter, and we trust will continue to do so, making his periodi cal the standard among Pennsylvania far mers, and their source of practical informa tion. The present number contains an il lustration of our great Lancaster County invention, Fawkes' Steam Plough, with a cut of the prize English machine. The difference is striking. GENNESSEE FARMER.—This old agricultu ral journal keeps up its reputation us one of the best in the country. It contains much valuable matter, and is a Csvorite with the farmer.

Heamx BREACH.—On Saturday, Ist inst., Moo Sarah Ilenderson, youngest daughter of the late Dr. Hendersso, of the 11111, de ceased, appeared before Justice Welsh and made piteous plaint against William Jones, it dusky tonsorial artist, for "kind o' breach of promise." William, assisted by Hol lingsworth, appeared the same evening with scorn and indignation depicted on his aris tocratic countenance. He denounced the outrage in select terms, and would speedily settle the impudent wench who dared sum mon him to the Blue Fronted Temple of Justice. Sarah's statement, supported by evidence of her maternal parient, set forth that the false William, after blessing her with his affection for a year and a half, had suddenly, and without cause given or assigned, withdrawn from the keeping of his Sarah his treasured heart, and laid it at the feet of a rival. Sarah was gnuwed by jealousy. She remonstrated with the fickle one and appealed to his better feel ings. William sympathised with her in her distress, should ever have for her they/arm est regard; entreated her to look upon .him as a brother; could be no more to her as he had married "de oder gal." Sarah got up "a scene." William reasoned with her (cuffed her) and she fainted. W. vamosed, and Sarah finding the fainting dodge inef , titans', straightway arose tmel wended her way to the BIM; FrOnt, where even-handed justice may be had "for st.. consideration." Sarah doubted the validity of William's as serted nuptials, but the .prisoner insisted upon the sufficiency of hie matrimonial ar rapgement with Mrs. Jones. This being the case, tbe'Justice decided thei 'William must go down, as evidence was forthcoming to convict him of having, at a former period of his romantic existence, conferred the title of Mrs. J. on a favored female - now residing in one of the up-river townsof This common wealth. William spent a solitary night in Richard's basement dormitory, and next morning went down, per Hollingsworth Opposition, to await his trial at the coming Quarter Sessions. • MC51'493.-00 Monday, 3d inst., M. M. Strickler, of West Ilempfield township, made complaint before Justice Welsh against John Watson, of this borongh, for trespass. On Tuesday evening Mr. Watson had a bearing. Mr. Strickler complained that he had been much annoyed and injured by the invasion of his farm by men and boys with dog and gun. A few days before he hats had a fine hog killed by some care less or mansions gunner. Under the cir cumstances, he brought the suit rather with the desire to establish a precedent and abate the complained of evil, than of punishing the defendant, Nominal damages only were asked. On Saturday defendant and others had passed through Mr. Strickler's fields, gunning. Mr. Watson was therefore or dered to pay a fine of one dollar and fifty cents, and costs of prosecution. This decision was given under the act of 14th March, 1856, entitled "An Act to pro tect Fruit and punish Trespass in this Corn. myttwealth," the principal sections of which we here give: SECTION 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the Com monwealth of Pennsylvania in General As sembly met, and it is hereby enacted by the authority of the same, that the wilful and malicious taking and carrying away of fruit, vegetables, plants, fruit or ornamen tal trees, vines or shrubs in this Common wealth, whether attached to the soil or not, shall be deemed and the same is hereby de clared a misdemeanor, and may be prosecu ted and punished as such under the laws of this Commonwealth. • SEC. 2. That any person or persons Who shall wilfully and maliciously enter or break down, through or over any orchard, garden or yard fence, hot-bed, hot or green-house, or who shall wrongfully club, stone, cut, bark, break or otherwise mutilate or dam age any nut, fruit or ornamental tree, Nltrub, bush, plant or vine, trellis, arbor, hot-bed, hot or green house, or who shall willfully or maliciously trespass upon, walk over,,beat down, trample or in any wise injure any grain, grass, vines, vegetables or other growing crop, shall and may, on conviction thereof in action of trespass be fore any mayor, burgess, alderman, justice of the peace, or in any court of law, have judgment against him, her or them for treble the amount of damage proven to have been dune, with costs of suit; one-half the damage or penalty to go to the use of the poor of the district wherein the premises lie, the other half of the damage or penalty to the use of the owner of the premises on which the said trespass shall or may be committed, and in default of payment of the said fine or judgment, with costs of suit, the party convicted may and shall be com mitted to thejnil of the proper county for not less than three nor more than twenty days; said complaint or action to be made in the name of the commonwealth, and the testimony of the owner or occupant of the premises shall be admitted as evidence to prove the trespass. The annoyance complained of by Mr. Strickler has grown to be so serious a one that we cannot but approve his action in this case. Sportsmen have too much gen uine love of sport to injure or annoy a farmer in any way, while shooting over his grounds, but there is about this, as all other towns, a rabble—we du not - by any means wish to be understood as classing Mr. Wat son under this head; be is an entire stranger to us, at least by name—which overruns the country in gunning season and is an un bearable nuisance to farmers. Everything is fish that comes to the net of this class, and the stock of a farm must have more in telligence than the majority of these gun ners if they would escape astray shot. The act above quoted effectually protects the farmer from these vandals. Another class of marauders is provided ' 1 for in the Act: we refer to the worthless, forsaken hounds who think themselves as fairly entitled to the choice fruit of a care fully cultivated and attended orchard as the man who plants it, cares for it, pays taxes on it, and gets, in consequeace of these petty depredators, a very moderate share of its products. We have been seriously annoyed by ,these gentry ourself. The apparent respectability of several of them ought to preclude their indulgence in such pitiable peccadilloes as the robbery of fruit trees, grape vines, &c., and we hereby notify them that their farther appearance in the garden belonging to the estate of William Wright will be followed by an apperance at the Blue Front. The above decision establishes an effectu al protection to the farmer against both trepans and petty depredations. We intend to avail ourself of it to the full. We there fore hereby warn gunners, thieves, tramps, and all others whom it tnsy concern, that any trespass upon the farms occupied by Daniel Peart and James A. Richards, lying in the Borough of Columbia and West liempfield Township, will be prosecuted to the extent of the law. ze "Father," said a young lisper of three or four summers, "when wath the flood?"

A JAPANZB2 SOCIAL TICA•PARTI.—"WO paid a visit to the jolly hostess and the fair dames of the inn—one of whom, by-the-by, said she had looked for my return, and bad reared a kitten fur me, for which I thanked the fair creature, telling her I should take another opprtunity for calling for her present. We pursued, our peregrinations through the garden, and suddenly came up on a social party of Japanese ladies and gentlemen at tea in a pretty summer-house. We bowed to them on passing, and as we did not wish to intrude upon their privacy, were about to withdraw, when a young gen tleman arose, came towards us, and begged us to enter and partake of some tea. We gladly acceded to this request, and were soon at ease with our new acquaintances. Small square tables of luquered ware, about a foot and a half in height 'and six inches square, were placed on the right side of the Japanese; these supported cups of tea, sweet-meats, cakes, and small laquered bowls of rice and fruit. Four married ladies sat together un one side, and near them an old gentleman; opposite sat a young Japa nese officer and two young ladies, one about seventeen years of age, the other about twenty; the latter were very pretty. We little dreamed of seeing such beauties in this retired spot; their skins clear and white as that of a Circassian, with a healthy blush on their cheeks, and teeth of pearly lustre. Their jet black hair was brushed from the sides and back of the head, and fastened in a.knot on the top of the head, by a fillet of pale pink silk. The elder was the hand somer of the two, and the chief object of at traction to the young officer, as he frequent. ly gave us an opportunity of observing, by placing un arm round her waist and looking luviugly into her eyes. There was gracefulness in all her atti tudes, especially when she took up a guitar at the request of her lover, and played a few airs for us; but the music was rather monotonous and without harmony; at least our dull ears could not detect any. She ac companied herself in a song, in a falsetto tone: a species of whine, not altogether so discordant as that of the Chinese, yet mere ly bearable from its strangeness. The sister now joined in a duett, one endeavor ing to outshriek the other. Our older hosts were iu raptures with the performance, and they wondered at our stolidity; but our ears had been accustomed to the music of Oriel and Mario, and could not endure even the finest Japanese singers. Finding the ladies so obliging, we prevailed upon one to play while the other danced. The performance was peculiar; she went round the apart ment, as in a slow waltz, making graceful passes with her hands, and humming an air to herself, smiling most agreeably, and bowing towards us as she went round. They were attired in richly embroidered silk; a loose tunic with wide sleeves, was fastened round the waist by a broad sash of pale pink; a fan was passed through this, and, supporting the back of each lady, was a tri cornered flat board, covered with parti colored silk. The married ladies were at tired in robes of a fabric resembling cash mere, and of a sombre lavender color. After tea they introduced pipes and some light wine. The Japanese tobacco is very mild and without flavor, so we requested that they would permit us to light cheroots in stead, according to our own custom. They examined our uniform minutely, asking the English name of each part of it, and pro nouncing each word separately after us."— Treason's Voyage to Japan. TEE LADY OF TIIE KITCIIEN.—The papers are making light of the demands made by female servant girls upon the mistresses of the house. It is, however, a serious sub ject. Au Irish girl complained not long since to the head of one of the "first famil ies" of Hartford, because the smooth floor of a kitchen bad bean painted and was des titute of a carpet. The bead of the "first family" made bold to say that the maid of Erin was rather particular for a female who In.d, in the old country, never trodden other than nature's carpet under the thatch of her father's hovel, and ending his remarks by showing her the position and describing the uaesof the door leading upon the street.— Another outrage upon the finer feelings of this class of individuals is committed by the New Haven Palladium in the publica tion of the following advertisement: "WANTED TO HIRE.—A lady, having a pleasant home, no incumbra.nces but a hus band and child, wishes to place herself at the disposal of some servant who can come well recommended from her last place.

DUELS AT Llztaxicaufta.—A correspondent of the New York Tribune, at HeidJeburg, gives an amusing description of the manlier in which the German - students prepare themselves for duelling. The combattauts are well protected from injury, save their heads, which are bare. Their right arm is wound with cloth until it is as big as a man's thigh, and too heavy to hold; it is supported,when not fighting, by the seconds. The neck is also wound with cloth to the ear, to protect the jugulars. The swords are about four feet lung, three fourths of an inch wide, blunt pointed, with a rough edge, be ing a regular fencing sword. If all is ready they begin, and endeavor to cut each other only on the head or face. If the swords are bent or broken, the parties are stopped by the seconds, who examine the wounds, sew them up if necessary, straighten the swords and the fi"htin.• recommences. Fur fifteen minutes this continues, unless one of the party gives out, or they declare their re venge satisfied. Now and then an ear or an note is cut off, and always more or less slashes are given across the scalp, forehead or face. These marks are regarded as hon. orable distinctions, giving evidence of bra very on the part of the bearer. rte.-The gentleman who stood upon cere mony has lost his footing, and-now finds that he has slipped out of a very pleasant circle.

For a long time a certain class of di have baffled the skill and practice of the most eminent members of the regular medical fac ulty. Foremost among these we might in stance epilepsy or falling fits. Happily now by the skill and inventive genius of an eminent chemist of Baltimore, Md., this disease has been brought within the means of a cure. We allude to the preparation called the Vegetable Extract Epileptic Pills, invented and prepared by Dr. Seth S. Hance, of 108 Baltimore street, Baltimore, Md. Since their discovery many persons who had given up all hope of ever being cured, have been restored to the full enjoy ment of health. Prominent among these we might enumerate Mr. Harrison Lightfoot, of Huntsville, Alabama. Mr. L. has suffered as much from Epilepsy, as any other person in the world: never knowing what it was to pass a week without having an attack, and often fall ing in the streets of Huntsville. He is now fully restored and has not bed an attack for more than a year, Dr. Hance's Pills have been the sure cause of tbis cure.
