NEWSPAPER Bossowzas.—We have heard much complaint lately, about this class of people—newspapor borrowers.— Persons have told us they did not get, to see their paper for a day or two after-pub lication and sometimes not then. This is contemptible meanness, nay—thieving.— They have no• more right to read your pa t*: for which you subscribe and pay for, for the use of yourself and family, than they have to d o me into your house and eat your bread. We hope our patrons will be a little more prudent and not let the paper go out of their family to those who do not subscribe. Newspaper borrowers aro al ways full of brazen-faced impudence, and should receive tke scorn and contempt of all honest people. Let us have the names of all such individuals, who are known to borrow, rather than spend the paltry stun of a dollar or two for a local newspaper.

M., but after arriving at the Hotel tho programme was changed, on ac count of a pressing invitation from a Lan caster party to remain and " join in the mazy." They had come prepared for a festive thue,bringing with them, "Miller's Band," and accompaniments. The spacious dining rooms was soon cleared and ar rangements made for action. The heat was oppressiye,but ull bore it gracefully, determined to dance as long as they had music, cluing not if they would melt away. Atl2 M. they " lunched," and after a short promenade resumed operations in the l;lall. All were in the heighth of en joyment and good feeling prevailed be tween both parties. At 3 A. M. the Lan casterians left for home and the Columbia party retired Litiz, singing "We won't go ho s* till morning.", The Columbiana return thanks - to the Lancasterians for the uniform kindness and courtesy extended them, and. bog to remind them that "angels are often en tertained unswares." Did the lAtelligen car see them ? G. P. BAILEY & Co 'S CIRCUS AND MENAGERIE.—Next week the public will be gratified in having an opportunity of witnessing the great pageant and trium phal entry into town of Bailey & Co's. Circus and Menagerie. This troupe of ex cellent performers have won for theta sel yes considerable popularity. They suc ceed in drawing large audiences of re spectable ladies and gentlemen, and the character of _their performance is unex ceptionable and pleasing:. They come well recommended bY the press every where, and we know that their entertain ments will be • superior to any that we have had in Columbia ter years. The performers are peerless as gymm.sts, acro bats or equestrians. The menagerie com prises a rare collection of beasts, reptiles, monkeys and birds of beautiful plumage. The gigantic nirrororAmus is of itself worth the price of admission and should be seen by every one. They will give two performances,Thurs dar next the 21st inst., afternoon and even ing, on the lot belonging to Maltby & Case, in Fifth street. This shows the wis dom of the business agent in selecting so good a location to raise their imme.ise pavillion; under which three thousand persons can be comfortably seated—so let none stay away for the fear of want of room. POLIO E AMU ns.-13,:fote Samuel Evans, Esq. James Toomey made complaint against Edward Smith for robbery. It appeared that on Thursday, 7th lust., the complain ant and a companion went to Mariett.t,de termined to get on a " bender" and " sec the sights." After perambulating through the town,Lhey brought up at a dance house in "Irish Town," at 11 o'clock P. M., in a condition far from sober. They participa ted in tiro dance, when complainant laid down upon a bench for thi) lltlyPose of sleeping himself sober, soon after which the defendant was seen to take a seat up on the bench, and place complainant's head upon his lap. It was thought to be a kindly action on his part, but very soon he was observed fumbling about the per son and pockets of the sleeper. 13efortt Ile awoke, defendant had disappeared, and with him, $7O in greenbacks, and a w.ttch worth $l5. On Friday morning following emmlainant went before the Justice and made complaint. A warrant was placed in the hands of " Old Ironsides" who im mediately proceeded to work up the case. Ascertaining that defendant and two of his "ducks" hired a vehicle at Irogendoblees, at 12 o'clock same night of the robbery, he inferred that they went to Dr. —,who re sides on Chestnut Hill, and cures " fits in the face." Not finding the birds there he immediately proceeded to Lancaster and in company with the "Vidoeq" of the Lan caster Pollee, Philip L. Baker, went to Safe Harbor, where they found their game sleeping at a Hotel. A search was made and the stolen watch and some of the money, besides a large bunch of keys and a discharge stolen from a soldier, was found upon his person. lie was brought to this place and committed to answer at November Session. It seems that the defendant is an old of fender be having served several terms of in Jail in different parts of the state for similar offences. Too much praise eartrmt be bestowed up on Constables McGinnis and Baker for their promptness in bringing the defend ant to Justice. —Sarah McCimm made comfdaint against Nidfer, (who keeps a groggery somewhere in the vicinity of "Sawney Town" it being a suburban portion of the classic "Tow 11ill,") for selling spirituous liquor to the complainant's mother, Eliza both Norris, (now in jail for being drunk on liquor obtained of defendany after no tice not to so, It's very evident from the compkxicny and character of the witnesses in this case that )jr. I:sliefer does not know how to "keep a hotel." The only wonder is that ito has escaped so long without getting into the meshes of the law. Defendant bound over to answer qt Nett ember Session. —lsaac Duck made complaint against John Anderson, a colored soldier, just re turned from the War, for tArlrfg osc a. mus ket within the limits of the gorough. A very serious affair very nearly happened through the gross carelessness of the de fendant. Re went to the Lancaster pike and fired his musket at a fence, the ball ptraitig through an inch board and over a field several hundred yards wide, to new cent etry, where James McAnall was at work. The ball struck Mr. McA.. in the shoulder Indicting a painful flesh wound. Mr. McAllen was In a stooping posture at the time, or he might _have received a fatal wound. was very much astonished, and knew not from whence the leaden messenger sosnddenly came.

Let us have some legis/ution on the subject, and if it becomes necessary to have the butcher shops removed let us have it done, sooner than the health of our people be injured thereby. The present damp and sultry weather is very unhealthy, and we would impress upon our readers the necessity of keeping their cellars and out houses in a pure condition by using lime or other dis infecting agents. The authorities of many of our principal towns are actively engaged improving the sanitary condition of their respective corporations. The present sea son has been of a charaster tending to pro duce disease, and the proper authorities should see that our streets and alleys are thoroughly cleansed gall filth. SOLDIER'S MEETING.—A meeting , of the Returned Soldiers was held in - the Town Hall. on Saturday evening last, at which the following resolutions weregass ed, relative to a dinner given them by the citizens of Columbia : Whereas, The citizens of Columbia on Friday last invited the returned soldiers of Columbia and vicinity to partake of a Dinner in Heisos' Woods, and Whereas, Such invitation was accepted and the soldiers turned out en masse, and were treated in the best possible manner, therefore be it Resolved, That to the citizens of Colum bia and vicinity we return our sincere thanks for their kindness extended toward us, and for the deep and abiding interest they manifest in our welfare.

Resolved, That the Ladies of Columbia and vicinity aro entitled to all praise for their energy and perseverance in prepar ing the necessaries of life, enabling us thereby to enjoy a dinner that would glad den the heart of any Soldier. Resolved, That while mingling In the festivities on Friday last, our minds could not help wandering towards the South, thinking of our brave comrades, whose re mains repose on near every battle-field, and in the vicinity of Andersonville and Libby, and'a silentprayer ascended from our hearts, that a just God would mete out proper punisiment to those who were the originators of the rebellion.
