OCT OF THE DRAFT.—Now that the war is over and no more danger- of draft, we occasionally notice in our midst some new arrival who loft to get out of Uncle Sam's clutches., The most noted one ar rived here on Monday. His name is Ku gleman. Re - invariably left when ho sup posed the Borough would not fill its quota. We asked him what ho wanted, and he replied, "me Want to see mine frents."— His "frents" should be searee,and Colum bia should have no resting place for his cowardly person. ' A Si OONEY PARTY.—On the evening of the 4th, throe or four young " bloods," -some of O&M with ladies—drove into town and had their horses put up at the Franklin 'louse. After spending the eve ning looking at the" grand display" of tirewcrks. &c., they called upon the ostler who had been in waiting for them till the "we sma hours"-:to bring theirhorses out. He hitched up in "double quick," and for which the whole party •'spliced" and paid him the handsome sum of fortrtecn ccuts.— Fred, ofeourse, felt incensed—so much so that he wen'. off the next morning on a regular bender. AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST.—The July number of this excellent monthly "fm the farm, garden and household" con tains a table of c‘entents, not only useful to farmers,but useful to mechanics, merchants housekeepers and others.

MUSTERED OuT.—The 190th and 191st P. V. V.'s have been mustered out of service. These regiments were composed of the remnant of the Penn'a Reserves.— The men enlisted In '6l and re-enlisted in the spring of '6l, and they were the first veteran regiments discharged. Several have returned to Columbia and have laid ?if the blue to become good and useful cit izens. Wo welcome them once more in our midst. Among them we notice C.&pt. Torbert, Lleuts, Fisher and Mullen,Drum Major Smedley, Corporal Welsh, and Pri vates Farley and Miller, and Musician Hess. Vire also notice the pleasing counten ance of Capt. M. B.Strlckler of the 20th Pat. City., who just returned to Columbia, and to the ranks of civil life. Dr. Jos. Cottrell, Ass't Surgeon in the; IC avl, has resigned and returned to Columbia. Be was on board the "Macki naw" at the capture of Fort Fisher. AN ArrAelt.—During the present heated term, police matters have some what accumulated, owing we presume, to the bad state of the blood in certain indi viduals of belligerent disposition. John Schilo and Charles Schilo of the bor ough of Marietta, came to our good bor ough several days ago to participate in the enjoyment •of a' Pic-Nic at " Bethel's I V uodo," having imbibed several tri glass Lager and awi glass beer, the brothers Sehlio began to feel Heenanials and looked around about for some Columbian whom they could punish. Failing to find such an individual, they extended their peregri nation to our usually quiet ,borough, and when in the vicinity of Perry and Third streets, observed. Mr. Peter (Traub, stand ing in the doorway of his house, whereup on they gave him a polite invitation to step towards them as they desired to make an important communication, complying with their said invitation, said Peter- ad vanced, and for his pains, was knocked down and terribly beaten.

FOURTH OF JULY—EXCURSIONS TO EPIIRATA AND LITIZ.—As Our " City Fathers" did not appropriate or make any arrangements to celebrate the Fourth in Columbia, the citizens generally left the place. A majority of them took passage on the Reading and Columbia R. R., and disembarked at Litiz and Ephrata. In company with the Ephrata party wo left Columbia at; 7.00 a. in. and arrived at Ephrata at LOO. Disembarking, the party formed in pairs,and under the marshaling of Col. Myers proceeded to the Hotel. The House was filled with visitors from far and near and they were all on the •pizarro' gazing intently upon the new-corners, and the arriving party, especially the sterner sex, returned the gaze with interest. La dies, blushing, innocent and lovely were there stationed "In Mil view. One young Gent was perfectly dumbfounded ut the sight, and nearly lost his partner. He at lust withdrew his eyes, muttering, "Well, if I could only remain hero and pass my days with her, all would bo well I" Shortly after our arrival a couple of young bloods drove through the yard,cut ting quite o.dush,when attempting to turn a corapr in a fancy manner, managed to upset, breaking the top of their carriage, but fortunately escaping personal injury. The incident consideratly dampened their ardor as they left with elongated counten ances. At noon we left Ephrata for Litiz, and arrived in time for dinner. The crowd at this place was immense, and the Messrs. Lichtenthaeler tt: Sons did un enormous business. The grove was perfectly crowd. ed. At 3p. m, speaking commenced and continued about an hour. The Union League Band of Lancaster was present and discoursed excellent music. Everything 'passed off in a splendid manner and reflected credit on the Mana gers. The Fire-works in the evening wore grand. The grove was a perfect candle factory. The candles were placed about three feet apart around the woods,and zig zag along the run, making a beautiful scene. About 9 p. m. the heavens began to grow dark, thunder rolled and tho light ning flashed, warning all that the rains were about to descend. The sight at this time eclipsed everything during the day. A. perfect rush was made for the Hotel and houses. Women were squeezed, hoops were mashed, mon were swearing and all was confusion. In a short time the storm came up and it rained for about fide min utes, as if the very flood gates were open ed, and then became clear. The candles were all extinguished and the people gen erally housed or in the cars. No more traveling to the spring for that night, During the afternoon we witnessed the following scenes ; the first was a " kissing arrangement." A party of young country folks formed a ring in the grove, and en gaged in the amusing game of "dropping the handkerchief. • A young lady would pass around and drop her kerchief behind the man she loved. He would then catch her and bestow a fond kiss upon her rosy lips. It afforded considerabkramuiement to the spectators, and no doubt real enjoy ment for the participants., We also perceived a young couple under a tree, in full view of the crowd, the lady seated and the gent stretched, with his head snugly pillowed, her loft arm encir cling his neck, - while the right hand was busily engaged in smoothing his curly locks. They were " billing and cooing" worse than turtle doves. We had the good fortune to find an infant lying in the grove, covered with a veil,and 'no woman within fifty yards of it. We judged it was about six weeks old. On raising the covering the cherub commenc ed kicking,. as much as to say, " this is Fourth of July and my limbs are my own and I'll kick th—r out of you." We left Dr. di. in charge of it until its " fond parient" arrived. Only ono or two skirmishes ilVe off during the day. All was harmony and or der. The police fon.e performed their duty well. and deserve the thanks of all con fronted, 4t sa. in. on Wednesday morning all lad returned. The enjoyment of the day bore heavily upon them and the greater part sought their; couches thanldhl that thircuirth of July only canto Outat • year.

The exercises con - 'of Recitations, songs, Ate., by the members , of the church and the Sabbath School, tinder the direction oflitr. David Richards assisted. by other member of the church. Mr. Richards opened the meet ing,b7lo'evir remarks in his native tongue —the ...Welsh language—after which the little children sang a beautiful and ap propciute hymn." Song - by Miss Rich -4=l#4-' ;.lit, before the battle Mother," :arse An!try affecting, "My Native ,14tradr" was well sang. Mr. David Itiefrards, again i made slew rernatks-ftr which he made reference.to "tamer - day we celebrate," said he wits-arWelsh Yankee, and that he was ndfishamed of it—said that he was a peace ful, law-abiding citizen, and that he loved and revered the flag of his adopted country. He belieied that the Declaration of Inde pendence was more powerful to-day than eveteit... seam:heft:ore, notwithstanding the desperate attempt' of - rebel-hordes to break it. He thought that traitors should re ceive the punishment due their crimes.— He hollered that God in His infinite wis dom wobld call them to an account for what they had clone against the Declaration. of Independence, and its teachings, and the Constitution of the 'United States, which declares all - men free and equal, but not free to do evil. He was attentively listerf-, ed to, and enthusiastically applauded "Blow ye the Trumpet in Zion," was sung with a will. This part of the pro gramtne was splendid, and to us not the most dlatgreeable part of tho proceed ings. Recitation by Mary A. Richards. Very good. "The blind boy," was spoken very pretty. Sallie Richards, Susanna Harris, D. Jones, and many others spoke beautiful pieces. We could not learn all the names given or pieces spoken. Great taste was exhibited in the selection of the the pieces recited, and the performets cer tainly did their part in a masterly manner. We assure both teachers and pupils that their ellorts were not unappreciated. Rev. Jolm Crumlish of the Episcopal Church made an excellent speech. He re garded the laboring man who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow as an honor to the ohuroh and to society, lie called the attention of parents to their duties, tu.d I the great necessity of their co-operation In the work of the clnistian religion and the Sal bath School. He was listened to throughout with marked attention. But for the tiring of "Squibs," pistols, &c., our town seemed more like Sunday than a national holliday—all the stores and places of business were closed, and no business done. Particularly noticablo for their display of dogs were the stores of Win. U. Hess and It. J. Haldeman. In the morning many persons repaired to Heise's woods where a pic-nie was held by the Columbia Firo Company which proved to be a decided success. Every thing passed off finely, nothing transpired during the day to mar the pleasures of the party. Quite a. number of our steady and more sedate citizens, spent the day, with their families, on Big Island. We under stand that, they had an exceedingly pleas unttime in luxuriating on the good things of this life, in fishing, ruralizing, &c. Ica cold lemonade, claret punches and cham pagne were indulged in to the satis faction of all concerned. Not the slightest incident occurred which could mar the harmony and good will which prevailed,— They all returned to town in the evening well pleased with the day's enjoyment.— We saw the right wing of the "Columbia Insurance Company"—propelling up Lo cust street as if he had "seen service." In deed as we saw his huge proportions rounding the corner, loaded down with fishing rods, shovels, baskets, ite., our first impression was that a circus had just come to town.

The delivery of the notes 45f this third series of the Seven-Thirties will• com mence on the Ist of June, and . will be made promptly and continuously after that date. ~ The slight change made in the conditions of thitt THIRD SERIES affects only the matter of interest. Tim payment in gold, if made, will be equivalent to the curren cy interest of the higher rate. The return to specie payments, in the event of which only will the option to pay interest. in Gold be availed of, would so re. duce and equalize prices .that purchases made with six per *cent. in gold would be fully equal to those made with the seven and three-tenths per cent. in currency.— This is The Only Loan in the Illarket. Now offered by the Government, and its superior advantages make it the . GREAT POPULAR LOAN of the People. Less than :130,000,000 of the Loan author ized by the last Congress are now on the market. This amount at thp rate at which it is being absorbed; will undoubtedly command a premium as has uniformly been the case on dosing the subscriptions to other Loans.
