MIISCAD6II4. SOIREE.—The Soiree of
this Club was held on Wednesday evening.
The atiendange:wa.s not very larg6,• but
those who were on hand, spent a very

COUNTERFEIT QUARTERSI.—A new
counterfeit on the twenty-five cent frac
tional currency is in circulation. In this
-cOunterfeit,Mr. Fessenden is adorned with
.11 breast-pin, which does not appear in the
genuine. The engraving on the Vignette
is very imperfect.
THE reign of waterfalls is no more. --
"Rats Rats and tnice,and such small deer" will

able belles. The fashion was set in Paris
and imitated in Washington—of letting
the natural hair do iluty by, unloosing all
fetters_ and allowing it to fall gracefully on
the shoulders.
OUR neighboring county of York is
now afflicted with a Republican Sheriff,
who has been appointed to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Sheriff Wolf. This
is Something new for her, and we suppose
the new Sheriff will have to improve the
golden opportunity as his reign will not
last hang.
. ICE BRIDGE.—The ice bound Susque
hanna still: forms a natitral bridge over
which all kinds of vehicles, sleds and
sleighs are constantly passing. Four-horse
teains, and wagons loaded with lumber,
coal, iron, ac., cross over in perfect safety.
The ice is now about eighteen inches thick
and the skating splendid.
GET MAttßlED.—Marriage is the goal
of most young men's ambition, or at least,

SABBATH SC CIOOL C ELEBRATION.—
On - Thursday evening last, the Sabbath
Sawa of the Episcopal Church, met,as is
their custom, in Odd Fellows' Hall, and
• had a. jovial time. Instead of visiting the
woods annutilly,thla School takes a winter
evening in - the Hall,and from observation,
we think that they experience more real
enjoyment than they would in the woods.
Their tahles, wore abundantly supplied,
and the'shouts of the children evidenced
thatihey were in the heighth of their glory.
THE GETTYSBURG RAILROAD EN
TERPRISE.—The project to make a new
railroad connecting with the Reading &
Columbia Railroad and the Gettysburg R.
R.'itt Gettysburg, has culminated, we are
iiformed,in the Inoation of the road to run
down back of Wrightsville, up the river
'and cross the Susquehanna at or near
Chiques. Thus it will be seen that the
much talked of enterprise avoids Colum
bia altogether. Our people had better be
."up and doing" if they wish the proposed
ne*W:link to come through this borough, as
'it - certainly, should.
ECLIPSES THIS YEAR.—Duritv• the
present year there will be threo eclipses of
the ninon and two of the sun, as follows ;
'On the
16th of March there will be a par
tial eclipse of the sun. On the 30th of
Mttrch the moon will be totally obscured.
On the 14th of April the sun will be par
tially eclipsed. September 23d the moon
will - be totally invisible. On' the Sth of
October there is to be a partial eclipse of
the sun. Jupiter..will •be the morning
War until the 23d of April, and then eve
ning, star the rest of the year. This
month Saturn plays the roll of morning
ptar. •
" TILE CONCER.T."—The greatest at
tempt of the season was made in Odd Fel
lows' Hall, on Monday evening last. The
leading spirit was all spirits,and it was im
possible to tell whether ho was able to "sing
nigh" or "sing low." We feel sorry that
any man should so degrade himself, as to
appear "in public on the stage," in a con
dition,th'at.plainly evidenced that ho was
not a An eNkber of tile worthy order of Good
Templars. The whole thing was a "fizzle."
No blame Was attached to the Lancaster
amateurs who were present, as assistants.
We hope the lesson 'received by the Prof.
will be the means of inducinff;him forever
to "shun the tempting liquid." •
SLED RlDlNG.—During the fore part
of this week,Yoting America made Locust
* Street resound with triumphant shouts,as
they passed from Second to Front, over
the railroad, and in some cases, to the ice
on the river, on their- favorite sleds. To
view the urchins in their spoq almost
brought the wish, "Would I were a boy .
again!" That they enjoy the sport is only
necessary for a spectator to view them .for
ft few moments, rid lie will find that their
whole soul is in its No accidents have yet
occurred, although we daily expected to
hear of some;, for the . sleds sped over the
crossings at a 2.40 rate, and pedestrians
had to keep an eye single to . the Safety of
their - "props," or find their heads' whore

ALL NOISE.—In front of Odd Fel-
Tows' Hall, on Monday evening, a few
youngsters, who were "soaked," indulged
in a clashing of tongues. For a time it
was supposed that some person would be
hurt, but as soon as the wind had all ex
ploded; the parties vamoosed, doing no
damage except disturbing the peace of the
neighborhood.

—O-.0. 1.
Mr. EDITOIL—We all remember the
great gold excitement which followed after
the acquisition of California, the great
rush for that land of gold, and prospective
fortune which each expected to bring
bark in his knapsack, and many of us
have a sabstantial recollection of a recent
excitement known on the stage as "oil on
the' brain." A few names of the lucky,
have been heralded in all of our public
journals, and millions of capital have
been sank in the wells which did not flow
with "milk and honey;" nor with
We have also read of a single iron furnace
in our own county, yielding an income of
sixty or seventy thousand dollars per year
and yet, what? no excitement, why? be
cause this is a home matter, and—a, and—
a, there may be some risk in the iron
business. Columbia is a great coal depot,
surrounded by ore banks richer than the
gold mines of California, and the risk of
manufacturing iron is 'not a hundredth
part of what it is, in hunting after gold
and oil, and yet our old and young fogies
are preaching for home protection, and
practicing home negligence in allowing
foreign capital to develop our wealth. and
carry the profits of our Iderado out of the
State. It I,lAu.y not be out of place to give
a sketteb, ti\O atatisticsof the iron busi
ness i,n our country. Pennsylvania- has
109; furkl,s,.ces; all the other states together
haven.- , In 1864, Pennsylvania produced
685,204, tons of p.ig, metal, worth fifty mil
lions of dollars; all the other states pro
duced bill 248 . ,f . ...9it0,n5. It will be noticed
that Pennsylvania produced more than
three fourths of the entire amount. In re
fining and rolling iron, Pennsylvania
falls far short of her proportion in mann
' facturing. * She has 14 rolling mills pro
ducing Railroad irou,and produced 159,010
tons in 1804; al/ the other states have 24
mills which produced 175,759 tons in the
same year. In ISSO there were but six
mills in the United States which produced
29,083 tons. With these facts before us of
the incioNising importance of the iron in
terest in - Pennsylvania, it is impossible to
account for the indifference shown by our
farmers - who
. have so much surplus funds
seeking inveitfrient; If our • farmers
should hear of a fertilizer: that would
double the product of wheat, I fear the ox-:
citement would run so --high that the ca
pacity of our Lunatic Asylum would have
to be increased, and all of them would find
thousands to invest. The iron interest of
the state is equal to the agricultural inter
est, and yet our farmers shun a furnace, a
rolling mill, and the proprietors thereof as
they would a pest house.
This apathy to the iron interest is the
result of negligence on the part of capital
ists; and in this county our capitalists are
composed of farmers who refuse to engage
in its manufacture. The production of
iron requires a large amount of capital so
as to hold the stock when •the market is
dull. A furnace should have capital
enough to hold its stock for five years or
more without stopping. All the furnaces
in Pennsylvania that have had capital
enough, have made larger dividends than
any other manufacturing interest *during
the last thirty years; the failures have all
resulted from want of capital, and not
from a want of intrinsic value in the busi
ness itself.'SVhen ironis dull it is manufac
tured cheaper than when the market is
brisk, and capital can take advantage of
dull times. Farmers who do not wish to
engage extensively in manufacturing or
refining iron, can invest a few hundred or
a few thousand in stock companies for
that purpose and thereby double their in
come without investing any more than
they can afford to let remain therein,
during dull times. The farmers of this
county ought to build some half dozen
rolling mills, and place them in a condi
tion to run all the time. The wants of our
qountry during the next ten years must
make a fair demand for railroad iron, and
there should be enterprise enough in our
county at least, to work up all the • pig
metal produced therein. I ask our far
mers to point out a single person with
a fair amount of capital,who has not made a
fortune during the last twenty years, and
who has not made double the profits of
any farmer with a similar amount inves
ted. Then why not invest, and develop
the minerals of our own county?
