PARADE OF WI DE AWAKES.-011 last Sa turday evening the Wide Awakes of the l'eoples Campaign Club of Columbia para ded for the first time in their uniform.— They had only received fifty caps and capes, and these were speedily appropriated, and the body paraded with the fifty uniformed men. The list contains some one hundred and fifty names, and when the entire corps obtain their equipments we may expect a general turn out. The uniforms are drab oilcloth caps and capes, and Gael, man car ries a torch. The light dress shows to great advantage at night, and under the glare of the torches presents a striking appearance. When the club is completely drilled and turns out in a body the display will be ad mirable. The Wide Awakes paraded un der command of Capt. John P. Wright.

Essick.,- Apart.ftem.,the interesting nature of the exercises, the occasion is one' which should,. for the sake of the future of the school=so important to the welfare of our town— call out a general attendance of parents and children. Nothing so essentially contributes to the character of a town for general intel ligence, as the location within its borders of a first class institution of learning. We already have the necessary school-building, and we can, if we will, secure the school.— To do this requires more than the entering of pupils at the institution; parents must evince an anxious interest in the progress of those children, and the manner of their advancement, to the extent deemed permis sible by the teacher. The public exercises must be attended by parents and citizens generally, and every opportunity afforded by the Principal fur an exhibition of public interest in the working and progress of the school must be taken advantage of, and not discouraged byeold neglect on the part of parents and friends as heretofore. The ex orcises of next Friday evening will we hope, attract such attendance as shall* show a dis position on the part of Columbians to en courage the Institute, and givo promise of future attention to the subject of good edu cation at home. TEMPERANCE MASS MEETING.—WO would call especial notice to the Temperance Mass Meeting advertised to come oft to-tlay at Blush's Woods near Xlountville. It will doubtless be very largely attended from the neighborhood, and from all the towns in this section of the oounty. Professor Gad dis, of Cincinnati, who will be one of the speakers, has a reputation as a temperance orator scarcely inferior to that of John B. Gough. We hope our citizens will bear in mind tho opportunity they will have of hearing Professor Caddis and the other speakers of the Mountville meeting, this (Saturday) evening, at the Odd Fellows' l all, Columbia. It will be en interesting occasion, and evory one who wishes to list en to rum able address will eaten I. J. C.

Homeopathic practice foranimals is not a new thing, but has been employed with great success in Germany, Ragland and some portions of this Country and ex perience has shown that while its medicines may be given with perfect eaqe and facility, they are far more efficient in controlling disease than the usual practice. Its adve o ttes contend that many di •e tses are o trable by it, which obstinately resist every other method of treatment, and that by its intro duction ninety per cent of animals other wise lost or - rendered valueless by treat• ment may be saved.

MB n 37 .I*N5 .5.17 :SO 'JO A a lt E 9 I r --The Harrisburg nion of Monday says: Officer Becker started for Lancaster haiing in charge, in iroaq, couple of black burglars named Henry Cor nish and John, alias, Bucky Shultze, alias W. W. P'atterson. These fellows are wan ted in Lancaster to answer fur a burglary committed on it dry goods and clothing store in Columbia in Alareh last. it appears that immediately af'er completing the job in Cu' linable, those "craksmen" came to this place, where they were joined by Thomas Dorsey and Peter Smith, and the party went into a system of wholesale plundering.— Their depredations were carried on skill fully, and for a long time escaped detection —but "the pitcher that goes often to the well is broken at last." They were all ar rested and committed to April.— About the time of their commitment, the Columbia burglary was traced to Shultze and Cornish, and Lancaster county having "the age" on us, these chaps will have the felicity of being sentenced by Judge hong, and afterwards Judge Pearson. if the Pros ecuting Attorney of this county insists on having his turn out of them. In any event it is to be hoped that the chastening and reformatory institution known as the Eastern Penitentiary may cul tivate their acquaintance and its ponderous iron doors be closed upon them for many a long day. The community will manage to get along without them. tio Suai.l. 01.1NG6.--In the official report of the California Mint the following pas "sage occurs, which illustrates one of the singular phases of social life on the Pacific: "Half-dimes, three-cent pieces, coppers and nickels and unknown to our commerce, and are almost unknown in our mint, al though a few half-dimes were once issued, to the great indignation of some people, who consider thorn a dangerous innovation, as having a tendency to reduce the price of labor and the profits of trade." ME R 44 554 4:2 40 `21)11 .106 liYlex lt),t3 277 2702 13 I•NS THIODOWEI MvsEITM.OP - ART.—On the• au thority of several' gentlemen who had wit. nested the exhibitioaof this unrivalled work of art in other cities, we promised. that the citizens of Lancaster would sae something far superiex to anything in• the exhibition line which had ever been presented this city. It is gratifying for us to know• that in all Jour prospective praise, we did not ex aggerate. What was seen at Fulton Hall last evening, and will be seen every even ing next week, cannot be exnggerated.— We are pleased also to see unerring indica tions that so fine a work of art, one in which so much time, labor and money have been invested, not only by the ingenious projec tor and proprietor, but by the enterprising lessees of this city, will meet with that sub stantial appreciation front our citizens which will justify them in continuing its exhibition here fur some time. The opening last night may be written a complete success. The audience was large and embraced a large number or those who can appreciate the mechanic arts in their highest development; and yet we di'd not meet with any ono in the audience who was not only pleased and delighted, but really astonished. The programme gives nothing like an adequate idea of the various scenes in the exhibition. To see the rocky coasts of Gil ralter, with its harbor covered - with shipping, the sails spread, and the vessels moving gracefully through the undulating ocean, a war steamer heroically breasting the waves, the smoke issuing from het fun nel, minature marines now and then firing a salute, the boom of the cannon folloming at a proper interval upon the vivid flash, is a mechanical result well calculated to tax the credulity of any one who has never seen it. And yet this is but one of a hundred - of the mechanical marvels which constitute the programme of the evening. If possible the "Storm at Sea" is more sublimely beau tiful. The clouds lower, the billows roll and dash upon the beset, a light house op pears in the distance, the lightnings flush and the thunders roll, the noble ship labors and strains through the storm, untill struck by lightning, she reels like a drunken man and goes down—automaton men sink and rise, the wreckers, from an overhanging eilff come to the rescue, a rope is thrown and the last man is hauled up to shore in safety; the storm subsides, the light from a clear sky aswares the light of the light-house, and the angry ocean is seen to subside as naturally as we have seen it at Gape or long The Automaton, Rope-Vaulter, is withal, the great feature of the prograMine, and may wolf be lined in the bills as the "Won der of the World'"—but we must pay our respects to this interesting little fellow on another occasion—merely remarking that it is hard to conceive why he has not brains, and muscles and nerves, like Blondin self—seeing that he has got more sense th in the daring Frenchmen. Must persons supposed that the figures in this exhibition would merely move not walk; but the walking is the wonder of the mech anism. In the view of Rome, a "fine old English gentleman" lifts his pedals with.the measured dignity of Johnny Bull; Brother Jonathan slides along like a New York note shaver on his way to Wall Street; while la lies vipeously ply their fans, beggars take off their hats and ask for alms, and the don key illustrates his character by stubbornly moving backwards under the spur of his rideth Altogether the like of this was never s:en by our citizens, and if any one says it is not worth "a q barter,'' we will set him d Avn as the second curiosity. The lessees were pressed for time to get ready for the exhihition last night, and the carpenters could get only one stairway com pleted. This evening there will be another on the south side of the flail, tehen the au dience will have greator facility for entrance and exit. Th 3 arrangement for ventil.•ttion will also be improved, and several other comforts for the audionoo attended tn. We are pleasel to no•ice that the lessees have taken tho precautions to exclude till improper characters from the Hall, and if any should elude the vigilance of the door keeper they will be promptly ejected.— D Illy L'.cprcc.s. IMPORTtNT DLSCoV ERY IN PH OTOGRA PHY. —The monthly meeting; of the American Photographicil S iciety, in New York, on M Ind iy, was made specially interesting front the presentation of a minute descrip tion of the new apparatus of Mr. Fontagne, of Cincinnati, by which copies of photo graphs can be multiplied indefinitely and with wonderful rapidity. It was stated that miniature photographs had been printed at the muonishing speed of two hundred a minute, or 12,000 an hour, from one nega- tivo. Tho means by which this is acoom pli.he,l is the adaptation of machinery to the process of printing by development.— Prints so produced, are conceded to have the advantage in permanency over the or dinary print, produced by the direct action of light. The negative is fixed in a box, together within sheet of prepared paper, and the latter exposed by automatic machinery, to the condensed light of the sun passing through the negative. The time of expo sure at the above rate of speed was but .03 of a second for each impression. The con densing lens being seven inches in diameter, and the circle of condensed light about cue and a half inches, the above exposure is equal to .G 5 01 a second direct exposure to the light of the sun. If, therefore, the ma chine wore to be used for a large Glass of pictures, such as hook illustrations, a con densing lens might be dispensed with, and yet nearly 2500 impressions be taken in an hour. The importance of this discovery cannot be over es timated. For the purpose of book illustrations alone tho new process will prove invalualide, for the number of impres sions capable of being produced in nny given time are far beyond the ordinary ma nipulations of lithography or plate printing.

In 1835, the• late Col. Creecy made• an equestrian cruise through the wilds of Missis sippi, in search of goodlande and a pleasant location.. During this cruise, the Colonel witnessed some rather frightful and many very Indierous scenes. On one occasion, he found himself, at oight,in crude log cabin, in oompany with thirty or-more rollicking gatiblers, who were on their way to a horse race. In this mere shell of a cabin, there was only ono bed, and that occupied by. a sick woman. In the work recently published by the widow of (Jul. Creecy, the doings of the night are thus described by him: Setae of thopasty early went into the shed, with. their overcoats and horse-blankets, where they endeavored to rest or sleep; but the majority, having a fair supply of whis ky, resolved to "keep. it op"' all night, and nearly filled the room in which the fire was burning brightly, being kept well supplied with wood during the whole night. A small 'table stood on the floor, at which floe. of the "blessed and unterrified Democracy" of the Union took seats to play poker. I had often heard' the game mentioned, bat bad no idea of it, except that it was a gambling game, played with cards. They had not long been, at the table when a violent quarrel took place. The words used were so particularly infamous and blasphemous that I involuntarily looked round; and at that instant Isaw a man snatch or grub a handful of bank notes front the table with one hand, and a pistol near hint with the other; and then I noticed several other pistols and bowie•knives on the ruble. The man nearest me sprang from his seat, caught ur a stick orpiece wood —more like a stave than. anything else—which was lean ing against tho side of the chimney or fire place just before me, and, as quick as thought,. turned and raised it, evidently de termine& to strike someone of the gambling party. I involuntarily rose instantly, caught him by the• shoulders in front. and pressed him with• all my strength against the chim ney, so as to prevent him from striking. but looked him kindly is the eyes, and beseech ed him to detest. Ile spoke- not, but gave me a look I can never describe or forget.— I, however, held him firmly, though several land voices exclaimed: "Let him go, sir! Let him strike-!" And simultaneomsly I heard the clicking of several pistols as they were cocked. My back was to the table. I looked round, and there were certainly six or seven pistols pointed at me and the man against the•wall, and as many bowie•knives glittering in the fire-light—making, altogether, a display, a scene I shall never forget, and Dever desire to witness again. I spoke to them ng mildly as I possibly could, entreating them to put up. their weapons. At that moment a voice ex claimed "Stranger r Let him go, and stand aside, or you'll be shot !" "I quietly replied: "I will not let him go while he bolds the stick; and if on shoot him now, you must shoot hho through me." The fellow dropped the stick, and' the only elderly man present straightened himself up. and said, loud enough to he heard above all the "noise and confusion:" "Shut up, boys—end this fans ; the stranger ain't acquainted with our ways— he means good ; stop it all, and drink, friends.' There was a little hesitation—hilenee— when one of the gamblers put up his wea pons; and remarked, "It's all right; let it go. Jim was cheated when he intended to cheat. It was a fair tight : that's the row—let's all take drink." The old man worked hir.. way to me as d offered his hand. which T took, as a tall young man came up, with some raw whisky in two glasses, and said: "Item stranger, you and father take a drink, and we'll be friend=." 'That liquor has always been my particular aversion, and I endeavored to beg off—told him 3 could not drink it; that it wonld make me sick. Ile looked astounded, and the old man came to the rescue, shying: "Don't insist an the stranger's drinking. my sun," And then turning to me, said: "Just touch your lips to the gloss; and say, "Let's all be friends;" that will satisfy all 'em ." I did so, and that scene was closed A s:EIIBARRA.SING MISTAKE.-Au Englisb., man who could not speak good German, was riding, a few weeks ago, on the railroad from Dresden to Leipsic, when he asked as well as be could, how long it took to go through the tunnel. The person be spoke to thought he said how long before the tun nel would be reached, and so he answered, "In half an hour." When they approached the place, the Englishman threw down his carpet bag and pulled of his coat. In a few moments all were enveloped in the darkness of the tunnel. After some ten minutes a streak of light appeared, and the ladies, oppressed by the heavy atmosphere, seemed impatient to be again in pure air.— Soon the full light onnse—every one took a long breath—when suddenly the ladies gave a simultaneous shriek and pulled their veils over their faces, to hide them from the disastrous condition of the Englishman.— The poor man thought the passage through the tunnel would take thirty minutes, and had been surprises: by returning light in the midst of his toilet, which he had not been able to make at Dresden, and for which he theft ht he would take the ad vantage of the supposed half hour's dark ness.

PABTE.—There• Bee been much talk.in Paris fora few days past of an Adventure of a Russian who le - very rich, and has great passion. for diamonds. Atb a house to. which be was 'introduced, he saw one evening seated. at a. card table a young :man very elegantly dreesedf„-nail having on !his-finger a superb•diamond ring,. which, as 'he-handled the cards, reflected the- light very brilliantay in. every direction. The diamorid naturally attracted the attention of the Russian, who asked perrniseion to examine 'it. He looked at it, tried it on, and became so, enamored with it that he offered. to pur chase. The young man declined on the . ground of fitmily associations, which made him_unwrilrag. to part with it. A large sum was offered, but again declined. The Rus sian still persisted. At length the young man told him that if there were no other reason, he could not think of selling it as it was not a genuine diamond. Astonishment succeeded admiration in the mind of the Russian, and he. asked the loan of it for a single day. Consent was courteously given, !and ho took the ring to. his jeweller, who pronounced it a diamond of the first water. Ile sought again the young min. "Monsieur," he said to him, "I return you your ring; here it is; but I am still very anxious to purchase it. I ought to. tell you, however, that my jeweller pronounces it a genuine diamond.. I offer you six thousand francs." "Your jeweller is mistaken. I eitnnot accept six thousand francs for what I know to be a mere bit of glass." "But if I want the bit of glass?" "Still I am nut willing to cheat you.," "But I insist on being cheated." "Very well; you may hare your wish, on one condition, that you will sigh a paper oaying, that of your own free will, you gave six thousand francs for what I assure you is only a morsel of glass." The paper was readily signed, the ring given up, and the Russian went off trium pliant. A few days afterward meeting his jeweller, he showed him exultingly, his new purchase. The jeweller glanced at it; then examined it more closely. "This time," he• remarked, quietly, "it is paste." The ring, undoubtedly, had. been adroitly exchanged at the moment of delivery, but the paper the Russian had signed left him, of course, without any legal remedy.—Home Amnia.
