COLUMBIA TALI:NT ABRUAD.—We are al ways happy to notice the creditable public appearance of migrated Colombians, in whatever capacity. We find in a life Bev ton paper the following remarks made before the "Boston Conference," (a% Math(ltiOn resembling, we beli we, our Hope Lodge "Evenings,") by oursold teitrisintin, Dr. N. B. Wolfe, on the qiltstion "Vfliat le Life? What is Animal Life?'; if man, in his preseut state,'was a finished being—a floats, invested with an am at-, tributes of lore; porter; Wisdom and know-' ledge; dint he is ever to possess—if he is; in his seresent condition of living, all that lie is to be, or capable of being—no more, nu less—then he would be able to eryeteliee every thought, and irradiate every sulsjeet, with truth, that is presented to his mind for inspection. But man, in his present form OS earth-life, is nut an ultimate; he is simply a creature of culture—a traveler on the royal road to knowledge, which still lies beyond the scrutiny of his present being, but to wltlels :men his every step is tend• ing; .lfirl hillier propelled by every circum sweets of life. "The fossil strati;" says Mr. Emerson, in his bite work on the "C ,n -duct of Irife;" "shows us that nature began with rudimental forms, and ruse to the more complex as fast as the earth was tit for their dwelling place; and that the lower perish as the higher appear. Very few of our race can be said to be finished men. We still carry, sticking to u., some remains of the preceding inferior quadruped organiza tion. We call these millions !nen; but they are not yet men. Half engaged in the soil, pawing to get tree, man needs all the music that can be brought to disengage him. If Love, with tears of joy; if %Vent, with his scourge; if War, with his cannonade; if Christianity, with. its charity; if Tinde, with its money; if Art, with its portfolios; if Science, with her telegraphs through the deeps of space and time, can set his dull nerve's flifolibing, and by loud taps on the cryselis can break its walls and let the new I creatute emerge erect and free—make way t and sing means! The age of the quadruped is to go out—the age of the brain and the heart is to Come iu." Tile millions,then, arc not men—finished i i -they are in teir rudimental state perhaps formless as regards Omit future— einbryotic —bl iCks of Mande, granite, xerety fir the sculptor's chisel—the genius of Phidias, the inepiratien of Praxitelee.

They are not a speculation, but spiritedly gotten ad by the gentlemen having them in charge for the sake of the public entertainment onl",-. The frid. of flekets forbids a hope of more than the payment of expenses: and surely we haVe rablic pride enough to pro vent the disgrace of a gratis lecturer ad dresging entity benches. After the conclusion of the lecture Major PititirtrA of Lancaster opened the debate.-- lie 'prefaced by saying that man should lever attempt to speak extemporaneously tInINs its trim. Ile, owing to a disappoint- MOnt in billiards, or other cause, was wa' in trim. Therefore he would speak. THU Major believed the lecturer's position, that man's superiority to the brute lies in his pos session of reasoning faculties, to be untenible. The true . mclier of reason is retrospection.-- The surveyor is the exemplification of a reasoning teing. After :t Idnft furwt.rd sight he shouts "Flag up!" retersesbi4 Mem:lntent and takes a correcting or assuring back sight. So man looks ahead and gets a sight with his mental eye: then reverses the machine and:looks backward With hie reasoning facul ties which [ought, therefore to lie among the animal bumps back of the cars, fur conve niencri tb see if he sees anything, or is on the contrary, all at Sen.

The speaker denied the correctness of the lecturer's dietetic conclusions.

LITTLE Pt f.t.S —The favorite electioneering at&ment in the South during the last catarlaign was, that lithe people adnstitutiortally elected a President die testefttl to that Seetidn; the Cottdri States would secedes This assunription was so Monstrously wrong, in the esttmaten of all lovers of the Union and the Constitution, that few men in their sober senses were willing to believe it. Recent events, however, show that those who Conirdl pulflic seritintent lit sdale of the South-; ern States Ward in earnest—but we were hard ! prertdred to Believe that the some principle' would be used here in Lancaster, to coerce sub mission, and that too by gentlemen so respect. able, bland and courteous as the members of the medical profession. Recent developements, hdiVever, lead us reluctantly to the conclusion that secession, in a certain contingency, has been threatened in Lancaster, and that the thtents Piave not been carried out simply be cause they were the means of preventing the contingency deprecated. It is well known to many of our citizens that for two or three years Past it &sire has been expressed by a large number of highly respect able tax-payers, to see the Homeopathic prac tice of medicine tested in the County Hospital, in comparison with the Allopathic system. It was proposed that one Homeopathic physician be elected out of the four now employed there' and that he treat evety fourth patient, not in any way interfering with the patients treated allopathically. A similar plan has been pur sued in Many °the; hospitals, in Hite Country and in Europe, and the Homeopathists allege, that the results have been favorable to their system. Tats is denied by physicians of the old school, and hence the desire of many who are not disciples of the new system, to see the question settled by a practical comparison of the two systems. At first sight, it would be supposed that a proposition so reasonable would meet with no serious objection. If, as the Al lopathic physicians allegdi Homeopathy is merely a sugar-of milk humbug, the easiest way we know of to demonstrate that fact and finally explode the humbug, would be to allow the system to be tested in the manner propo sed, and the Comparative results laid before the public. Besides this, there is a large and quite respectable minority in this city and county who practically believe in Homtepathy, land use no other remedies in their families; I, g and we are not prepared to say that their re ; quest of a one.fourth representation in the Board of Physicians to the Hospital is an un reasonable demand. But aside from the merits of this contra versy, this community will not sanction the precedent set by some of the Allopathic phy sicians in controling a majority of the Board of Directors by threatning to resign if a Hom eopathic physician was elected. This is carry- I mg the joke a little too far. Yet Oa have good authority for saying that this policy was sdcceasfully pursued last year, and repeated again on Saturday last, when the four old in- cumbents were all re-elected. The friends of ' Dr. Stehman, the Homeopathic candidate, had assurances that a majority of the Board wduld ; vote for him, for the reasons we have already assigned, and not from any personal preferen. ces entertained for him, or any personal ob jections to the other incumbents, who Are all worthy men and competent physicians; but I the reason assigned by one or more members of the Board was that the Allopathic incum bcntsi would resign in case a Homeopathist was elected, dud in that event the 'Hospital would be left seithetit the necessary medical attendance! In yielding to such coercion, the Directors (:indented by it, showed an amazing lack of back-bone, neither creditable to them ; selves or their constituents. Such conduct it is our duty to oppose, as a precedent in filling any elective office in future, as the example of South Carolina is by no' means desirable for the imitation of Lancasterians. j The Directors should have promptly !aid to the threatening Doctors and their friends—lf a majority of our Board deem it expedient tc , give Little Pills a fair chance for a year, and Big Pills resign in consequence, let them re sign; there are Little Pills enough in the coun try to take their places!, Governor Curtin's Inaugural On Tuesday GuvernorCartin was inaugu , rated at Harrisburg, WAIL appropriate ere monies, His I nangurai Address was cahn and cottetliatory in its torte, and gives geW eral satiarection„ We givex brief abstract:" The Governor commended by saying: Deeply impressed with its responsibilities . and duties, I enter upon the offatti lion-• einor of Pennsylvania, with a determination to ntlEI 'Wens' all faithfully to the tar:Witt of my ability.
