PERSONAL.—Lieutenant Edgar Eyde, of the 45th P. V., is now at home on a "leave of absence." The Lieutenant was seriously wounded at the great "blow-up" 111 front of Petersburg a short time ago, and is yet compelled to navigate on crutches. REPAIRING. —We notice that the resolution passed by the Town Council, at a late meeting, requiring all persons to repair their side-walks, is having the de sired effect in some portions of our Boro'. Wo hope that the resolution will be carried out to the very letter, and theft it will be some pleas..re to promenade, but as it is, you must be aware of all the ups and downs, or a severe concussion will be the result. GOING DOWN.—Since the great and brilliant victories of Sheridan, gold has been on the decline, and as a natural con sequence groceries and provisions slightly declined under the pressure. It will be joyful news to the thrifty housekeepers to hear that sugar, coffee and flour are likely to decrease in price, and that they will soon be able r,o purchase the "mince" that they so much need, but have been holding air lbr a downfall of prices in the mercantile world. LIFE hisUitANCE.—We call especial attention to the advertiseinennnt of Wm. U. Hess, in to-day's paper. He has been appointed agent of the Girard Lite Insu rance Company, of Philadelphia. People are at last beginning to appreciate the great importance of life i11331/rilliee.

Weaver, paid a friendly visit to their brothers of Chirpiest'bingo Tribe at Columbia. The visit was made at tho instance of Chique salunga Tribo for the puipose of receiving instructions in the new work of the Order, adopted by the Great Couneilof the United States at their last session. What was done when tho "Councl-fire" was burning would of course not be in place to let "Pale faces" outside of the Order know, but aufßee it to say that the " War-whoop" was given and the war dance indulged in. The members from Lancaster speak high ly of their good treatment at the hands of their Columbia brethren, and . should op portunity offer, they promiso a return of the compliment.—E 'press 28th ult. SEND YOUR HOME PAPF.RS TO TUE Sou:pmts.—No one but a soldier or an ex ile knows how to value his home paper. No one who has not stood In the battle's front, away from the quiet of home, can know the eagerne-s with which the famil iar shoot Is read and re-read and passed through the whole catnp. Home speaks to them from every column, and in the sweet perusal they forget the gory contest in the clear sky, the laughing brook, and the voices that gladden the old homestead. Qur boys In blue, hunger after news from home; need tho "paper bullets" of his loyal paper to lighten those in the cartridge-box. Let every ono send papers to their acquain tances in the army. It is but little trouble to mail your old papers, and they will so gladden the eye and the heart of the patri ots who aro now doing battle for our birth right—a free and undivided government. BEADING & COLUMBIA R. B.—This Road has been extended as far as Union Street, and there makes eonhoction with the Penn'a R. R. A depot is being extem porised out of a brick building on Union street, which,when finished will be a great convenience to the traveling public. The trains now leave and arrive on the corner of Union Street and the Penn'a R. R. in place of "Black's," as heretofore. Trains leave Columbia at 7:40 a.m.,arrive in Phil adelphia at IWO p. m., and in New York at 4:40 p. m. Leave Now York at oa. m.. and arrive in Columbia at 4 p. m., and leave Philadelphia at 7a. m., and arrive at Columbia at 4 p. m. Henry J. Howard, in his " Leaves of Travel" on the outside of our paper to-day gives a graphic description of Locomotives, being built for this road by Messrs. Hay ward, Bartlett it Coo, Baltimore, Ncri, A NEW EXPRESS LlNE.—Since the ' accident on the Pennsylvania Railroad, by which a number of lives were lost in consequenbe of the car doors being locked, the conductors have been instructed to lock no doors while the train is in motion. The doors are to be so arranged that they will only open from the inside. The ob ject in locking the doors is to prevent way passengers from entering the through curs, so that the people in the latter shall not be annoyted by showing their tickets ut almost every station. The travel on the road has Increased so rapidly that it has been found necessary to put on another fast express train.—/atctligencer. DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS. The following are the nominations made at the Democratic County Convention, on Wednesday last : roll CONGRESS. HUGH M. NORTH, Columbia. ASSEMBLY. WILLIAM S. DAVIS, Colerain. Dn. HENRY B.

It will be seen that our fellow-townsman, M. North, Big., has been nominated for Congress.. This is one of the very best selections the party could have made, as ho is a gentleman of no ordinary ability, and if elected will carry out the princi ples of his party and tho interests of his constituents; which will do credit to him self and honor to the district that elected him. We wish him success. ATLANTIc Morins.—The October umber of the Atiantic JCrarhltl eontains 0:00 of the very belt literary articles. Atnongst them we allnde partieularly to lie one headed "Paul Jones and Denis Du val," which is a kind of continuation of Mockery's novel, and gives us his version f the action between the Sump's and the Bon }femme Richard. It is very charae eristie and entertaining. Duval Is repro . anted as being a boy at the time, and he s made to describe the hattle as seen by ism thrbugh one of the after-ports of the 'erupts. Added to this is another account f the same battle by one of the ollieors of he British frigate, who was taken prison er and subsequently naturalized hero. A great portion of this very interesting arti •le is taken from Tharkery's own notes and unfinished manuscript. Next in in crest is "A Night in the Water•," by Col. ligginson, a singularly well told tale of a econnoisanee of the enemy's pickets on ho coast of South Carolina, We are glad o learn that Cll. I figginson will begin in he next number of the Ai/antic a series f papers describing the traits and fulven fires of his pioneer colored regiment, the irst S.mth Carolina. They will bear the •itie of "Leaves front an 011leer's Journal." Mrs. Stowe contributes N 0.9 of her 'House and Homo Papers,' which treats of the nanagement of domestic servants and o • It has been compelled to raise its subscrip tion to four dollars per nnnurn—but WO should hardly think that those who have b;..en accustomed to look to It for their monthly supply of mental aliment will hegruclgo the increased price.

EDITOR:—AIIow me a space in your columns to call attention to the growing evil in front of the Town Hall. The mar ket benches around said institution are nightly crowded with pet•sonngcs, who would consider themselves insulted,i fthey were not called Goats or Young Men ; but from their actions they are not entitled to a more appropriate name, than " rowdies of the lowest class !" No young man,that has any respect for himself would be in the habit of posting himself In such a pub lic place every night, (Sundays not except ed) and indulge In all manner of remarks, singing obscene songs,and insulting every one who passes by. I think It would bo advisable Ibr our worthy Constable to pass that way, and see Usomething cannot be done to abate the nuisance. If the youngsters like the vicinity of the Town pall, it would bo doing theta justico to open the doors, and give them a free pass into the apartment built for the especial accommodation of such persons. G. WHo suout.D PAY STAMPS WI RE CEIPTS ?—COMUiliSSiOner Lewis, in a re cent decision says : "Ordinarily at law no person is bound to give a receipt fur money paid. The receipt is an instru ment of evidence, useful only to the per son to whom it is given. If he needs a receipt it is necessary fur him to furnish a stamp, or to stamp the receipt, it' re• quired, before it is signed. The person who receives the money is not obliged to give a receipt unless the other party fur nishes the proper stamp. If a person gives a receipt without requiring that the party to whom it was given shall fur nish the stamp, the maker of the•receipt must himself stamp the paper before he delivers it. It he fails to stamp the pa per before he deliVers it he is liable to the penalty which is provided by law fur the omission ; but the other party may stamp it immediately upon its being re ceived." is Barketo.

It is a National Savings • Bank,offoring a higher rate of interest than any other,nnd the best security. Any savings bank which pays its depositors in U. S. Notes, considers that it is paying in the best cir culating medium of the country, and it cannot pay in anything better, for its own assets are either in government securities or in notes or bonds payable in govern ment paper. loves 8: Collars It is equally convenient as a temporary or permanent Investment. The notes can always be sold for within a fraction of their face and accumulated interest, and aro the best security with bunk's R.. 9 eodaterals for discounts. In addition to the very liberal Interest on the notes for three years, this privilege of conversion is now worth about three per cent. per - annunt, for the current rate for 5-20 Bonds is not less than nine per cent. premium, and before the war the premium on six per cont. U. S. stocks was over twenty per sear It will be seen that the actual protit on this loan,at the present market rate, is not loss than ten per cent. per annum. Its Exemption from State or Mu nicipal Taxation. But aside from all the advantagotrwe have enumerated, a special Act! of Con gross exempts alt bonds and Treasury notes from local taxation. On the average this exemption is worth about two per cent, per annum, according to the rato of taxation in various parts of the country. It is believed that no tocurities offer so great inducements to lenders as those is sued by the government. In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of private parties, or stock companies, or separate communities, only, is pledged for payment, while the whole property of the country is hold to secure the discharge of all the obligations of the United States. While the government offers the most liberal terms for its loans, it believes that the very strongest appeal will be to the Loyalty and patriotism of the people. Duplicate certificates will be issued for all deposits. The party deposing must en dorse upon the original certificate the de nomination of notes required,and whether they aro to be issued in blank or payable to order. When so endorsed it must be left with the officer receiving the deposit, to bo forwarded to the Treasury Depart ment.

Burk• Convertible inton, Six per cent.s-20 Ciotti fond. contamination is va riously caused by mercurial disease, low living, disordered digestion from unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitution, descending "from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation; " indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him who says, "I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their children." The diseases it originates take various names, according to the organs it attacks. In the lungs, Scrofula produces tubercles, and finally Consumption; in the glands, swellings which suppurate l and be come ulcerous sores; in the stonfach and bowels, derangements which produce indi gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; on the skin, eruptive and cutaneous affections. These, all having the same origin, require the same remedy, viz., purification and invigora tion of the blood. Purify the blood, and these dangerous distempers leave you. With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot have health; with that "life of the flesh" healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease. Ayer's Sarsaparilla is compounded from the most effectual anti dotes that medical science has discovered for this afflicting distemper, and for the cure of the disorders it entails. That it is far supe rior to any other remedy yet devised, is known by all who have given it a trial. That it does combine virtues truly extraordinary in their effect upon this class of complaints, is indisputably proven by the great multitude of publicly known and remarkable cures it has made of the following diseases: King's Evil, or Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Erysipelas, Rose or St. Anthony'. Fire, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from tuberculous deposits in the lungs, White Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases, remale Weaknesses. and, indeed, the whole series of complaints that arise from impurity of the blood. Minute reports of individual cases may bo found in Aria's AMERICAN ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists for gratuitous distribution, wherein may be learned the directions for its use, and some of the remarkable cures which it has made when all other remedies had failed to afford relief. Those cases are purposely taken from all sections of the country, in order that every render may have access to some ono who can speak to him of its benefits from personal experience. Scrofula depresses the vital energies, and thus leaves its victims far more subject to discaso and its fatal results than are healthy constitutions. Bence it tends to shorten, and does greatly shorten, the average duration of human life. The vast importance of these considerations has led us to spend years in perfecting a remedy which is adequate to its cure. This we now offer to the public under the name of AYER'S SARSAPARILLA, although it is composed of ingredients, some of which exceed the best of Sarsaparilla in alterativepower. By its aid you may protect yourself from the suffer ing and danger of these disorders. Purge out the foul corruptions that rot and fester in the blood, purge out the causes of disease, and vigorous health will follow. By its pecu liar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital Ainctione, and thus expels the dir• -- which lurk within the system or " on nay part of it. We know the public "have beets by many compounds of Sarsapar, dant tria , am t tore remains no - cfu. its surpassing excellence for the cm afflicting diseases it is intended U Although under the same name, it is a very different medicine from any other which has been before the people, and is fur more ef fectual than any other which has ever been available to them. 41.Y23.1:t'S CHERRY PECTORAL, The World's Great Remedy ibr Coughs, Colds, Incipient Con sumption, and for the relief of Consumptive patients in advanced stages of the disease.
