Al- Clough it is named the 'Junior Bachelors,' they will be willing to allow any 'Seniors' -admittance that desire to mix, and behold how they have "sinned away their day of ~grace." - CLEAN YOUR. PAVEMENTS.--7-We find that many places in town.Lpersons pay lit a tle or no. attention to the matter of keep ing their pavements clear of snow. 'We think our Street Commissioner is certainly • derelict in this respect. 'We believe it is his imperative duty to notify all renters .and property holders, so oflending,to have, their pavements clear of snow in due tinie, then if they neglect, report them to the Chief Burgess whose duty it is to enforce the ordinance made and provided for such ... • .cases. LOOK OUT FOR LE AL—Sometime -during last week, a young German, a stranger, put up at one of the hotels_in this -city, and announced that he was a Watch -maker by trade, and that ho was traveling about for the purpose of repairing watches, _jewelry, 4.tc. He succeeded, after a few days' sojourn,in collecting quite a number of watches,rings, etc., to repair,with which ,he 'disappeared on Friday last, not even paying his. hotel bill. This is another 4.lodge at swindling, and we hope that the •citizens of our neighboring towns and vil lages will keep a lookout for this swindler. —lntelligencer. A FRACAS IN CIIURCII.O . ri Saturday .evening last, at a revival in the 'Borough of Washington, a difficulty: occurred, re .sulting in one man receiVing a black eye. We understand that a'geatientan made use •of the remark, "that the meeting was as ,good as a circus," and ho was immediately - visited by a fist from one who resented the insult. Unfortunately the avenger was not "as healthy" as his opponent and con ..sequently, instead of punishing the aggres -sor ho received the punishment. The brethren intertbred and soon everything . went or. in "the even tenor of its way." It -was a disgraceful proceeding, and we be lieve no arrests were made. SABBATIr SCHOOL Itlntuit* , evening last, the annual exhibi tion of the M. SalibathSehool came off. It was well attended, and the etv.ereises, consisting-of speeches, dialogues and sing ing, were pat-formal in a creditable-man ner to all concerned. Au interesting fcatnro of the exhibition -was the presentation of a Silver. Pitcher, Goblet and Waiter to Mr. Samuel Grove, Sap' tof the Sabbath School. It vas pur chased by the Scholars and Teachers and presented to Mr. Grove by Rev. Wm. Major, in a neat and appropriate address. Mr. Grove responded with a few remarks but was so much surprised that he could not command his for.dings. We should sup pose that to receive such a present,without any previous knowledge, would deprive us - ofspoech altogether. Don't do it, any body, we entreat you. SLEIGIIING.—Our young folks made good use of the sleighing during the past weak. " Jingle, jingle," the bells were going all the time and many a bonnie las sie was made happy by taking a trip with her gallant. On Tuesday , evening last a merry party "of young folks hook-ed up their horses and started for Lancaster. They went out the pike making the air resound with, "Merrily, merrily, on we go, Gliding o'er the fleecy snow." Without receiving any knocks, they ar rived all (w)right at Cooper's. Music was soon obtained and the dining room cleared and. not " caring whether the schoolmaster was around or not," they - joined in the "mazi." "Abe" was along and ho in forms us that they had a delightful time, and that .they experienced no danger of wither=ing asiong as they wire at Cooper's for want of wines, as Bill keeps the best '-and of the latest date. They arrived safe ly.at home with' clear craniums, well satis fied with thehospitality of Lincasterians. REMEMBER TILE POOR.—This is an ;nnpleasant subject. We do not mean to •say that to remember the needy is un pleasant, but it is unpleasant to publish the fact to the world that in Columbia we have - personsxho are actually starving for the necessaries of life. In conversition - with a gentleman on Wednesday. evening, we were informed that a short time since, a couple of Ladies were on a certain street, „soliciting subscriptions for . the Freedmen, And on that same street were no less than ,three families belonging to the same con gregation who were greatly in need of food. Another case came to our ears of a family who were visited by a humane gentleman, and found that they had not a. mouthful of food, or a bushel of coal in the house, ire supplied their wants as well as he possibly could. These are only isolated cases. We could name several more but we are ashamed to give them publicity.— Why is something not done to relieve them? Every day we hear .of the great efforts that are being made to relieve the suffering Freedmen, but not a word do we hear of the suffering poor,- both white - and black, - of Columbia. We would say to the liberal and wealthy of Columbia and vicin ity, let the Freedmen alone, Jet the Gov ernment attend to their wants as they are stow doing, and let, your contributions 17,e killen'to those at home, and then after their pressing- wants are satisfied, if you wish, you can • aid the Freedmen. Our Ministers - should urge this matter upon their respective congregations, and not be over-zealous in regard to those whom the Ge,Veinntentare attentimg, SALE or Itrix, • FATA.TE., 7 --Willian2 Patton -sold to.

A DISPUTE.—Two Dutchmen once got into a dispute about the English Lan guage, each one contending that he could command the best. They made a bet at length and appointed u judge to decide be tween them, and accordingly they began ; "Veil, Chon," said the first, "did it rain to-morrow?" "I fink it wash !" said John. 'Wasn't . that j - - quandary? But there is no disputing the fact that E. Wor rell & Co., No. Sl9, Arch street, Phila.,keep the best quality of Clothing in the market. GIVE THE PRINTERS Run PLAY.-- We have a piece of advice, says an ex change, which we wish to fix firmly and indellibly upon the public mind, and that is, give the printers fair play. Do not for get that it costs something to " puff," as well as to advertise, and never sponge up on a printer in any way whatever. It is the printer's ink - that makes nine-tenths of your fortunes ; it fakes money to buy ink, type and paper, and yet after :all this, few are the thanks that the, printer gets.— Give the printers faii : iiluy, and give up all expectations of gratnitous puffing, &c., and come down with a remuneration. SOLDIERS, RESD.—From an address sent out by the Soldiers' and Sailors' Na tional Union League of Washington City, we copy the following ; "We beg you to consider well the import ance that your Discharge or Discharges will be to each one of you through life. It is the only evidence you possess of having sttvEr , TaitOUGLIOUTI- your term with_ honor untinged sir untflotted by any . 6r - cowardly act - it will ever be a pass to you for obtaininglonest and hon 'orahle employment or .position in the walks oteivil life ; it is the only voucher which enables you,to•elaim or recrive from time to time such benefits and blessings as a free and gyateful peopp„ through their Congress,w ill'ungueStionably bestow upon its country's saviors, particularly in their old age." PERSO:sTAL —Our old friend, Alex. Caldwell, of Leavenworth, Kansas, paid a visit to Columbia during - the week. He comes East on a business tour, and"will return in a short time. He is engaged in transporting Government Stores over the plains which is abnsine,ss blimmense pro portions. and we are tolct•has proved quite lucrative to friend C. his hosts of friends will be glad to learn this as he is a cour teous, affable and liberal gentleman, and deserves success. We hope that he will, sooner or later, again make Columbia his home. COL'A & PORT DEPOSIT R. R. Co.— The following are the officers of this road, for the ensuins year ; President;—C. S. Kauffman.

'65 rrtuE Directors are highly gratified in J. being enabled to inform the members of the above company that no serious loss has been sustained by any of its members during the current year. Several small fires have occurred, but none of sufficient Magnitude to require the services of the appraisers. The closing year has not pass ed by •sithout the casualties by fire; some of which have. been attributed. to the ma licioUs-doings of the vile - incendiary ;. but fortunately none of die property insured by this company has 1.-een disturbed or molested. This almost entire exemption from loss, affords ample cause for mutual congratulation, and will be greatly accept ed by every member of this company.— Another source ofgratitication to the di rectors is founded on the fact that the amount of property insured is constantly on the increase, the augmentation dur ing the current year being considerably in advance of that of the preceding year, and the aggregate amount now insured by this company being upwards of FIVE Mir.- Lroxs OF Dott.a.tts. No tax has been lev ied during the past year, and although the company is somewhat in arrears with the Treasurer, for money advanced by hini,the Directors have deemed it better to borrow a few hundred dollars for a short time than to incur the trouble and expense of levying and collecting a tax for so small a sum as the present necessities of the com pany would seem to require. The number of Policies issued during the past year is 146, covering property to the arneunt of . $ 383,231 Additions nictde to old Policies antt'd to Making a total addition of 417,292 The number of policies canceled was 39, the valuation of which ain'ted to 122,145 Diminutions on all poiicies :uric to 17.130 Malcine a total decrease of - 139,593 Which being deducted from the addition exhibits an actual increase of 277,701 Which increase being added to the ain't exhibited by the last report, 4,809,812 Malces an aggregate of 5,084,513 ns the who.o amount at present insured by the com pany.

There is a small amount of out-standing taxes yet to ho collected, but not sufficient to liqui date the present indebtedness of the com pany. All of which is respectfully submitted.

Oct. 21, tf• RELIEF IN TEN DIINUTES, BRYAN'S PULMONIC WAFERS. •ifZ" The origin Medicine established in 1837, and first article of the kind ever introduced under the name of “Pulmonie Wafers," in this or any other country; all other Pulmonic Wafers are counter feits. The genuine can be known by the name BRYAN being stamped on each Wafer. These Wafers have been before the public for nearly thirty years, and the imincuso snle attained, not only in At neriea but in foreign countries. fully attest their intrinsic worth. The medical proper ties are superior to any other articles offered for the cure of Pulmonary or Bronchial Miectious, and the quantity contained to each box is nearly dou ble that of that of thc many worthless imitations advertised. Bryan's Pulaionie Wafers cure Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, 1-to wseness, Asth ma, Catrrh. Bronchitis, Difficult Breathing, Spit ting Blood, Pains in the Chest. Incipient Consump tion and all diseases of the lung. isiot only afford ing temporary relief, but effecting a rapid and last ing cure and arc warranted to give satisfaction in every instance. They do not nauseate like acoholic compounds, and the medical properties are com bined in a form so agreeable and pleasant to the taste, that any child will readily eat them. One dose will always afford Relief in Ten Minutes. To Vocalists and Public Speakers, these Wafers are peculiarly valuable: they will in one day re move the most severe occasional hoarseness: and their regular use for a few days will, at all times, increase the power and flexibility of the voice, greatly improving its tone, compass and clearness, tor which purpose they are regularly used by many professional vocalists. The very great celebrity of this invaluable rem edy has induced unprincipled persons to prepare base imitations, which disappoint tile just expecta tions of the purchaser, and injure the character of the genuine medicine. See that the word, -BRYAN," is stamped on each Wafer, and also observe the fee simile of the sig nature of the Proprietor "JOB i3IOSE:s" oa each wrapper, to counterfeit which is _forgery. irg-Offen ding parties will be dealr with to the full extent of the law, Ilryans Palmanic Wafers aro for sale by all Drug _ _ _ JOB MOSES, Solo Proprietor,27 Cortlandt .St., N.
