The room was full to overflow ing, and all seemed delighted with the en tertainment.

' I=l=l "EVENING D CSPATCII." — A. taew daily bas s ! ttF...t made its appearance in Reading, Pa., called the Evenktg Dispatch. It is a twenty-eight column pap er, published by Laciar d Co., and gives • evidence of an amount of mental and mechanical labor, which must recommend it to the reading public. It is got up in a style of excel lence scarcely surpassed by any other daily, and is well worthy the cordial sup port of the people of Reading. We wish them every success in their hazardous en terprise. DESERVED COMPLIMENT —While it: Philadelphia a few days ago, we were shown a handsome silver medal gotten up by a few of the friends and patrons of the establishment of E. Worrell h Co., and presented to them for getting up the best and most fashionable clothing in the city. This is a well deserved compliment and shows conclusively the high appreciation in which these gentlemen are held as mer chant tailors. Onr friends visiting Phila delphia should, by all means call at their elegant establishment, 819 Arch street, and examine their stock. They are making up their winter stock of goods at greatly reduced prices, in order to get ready for spring business. LENT.—Wcdnesday, 14th inst., was the first day of Lent. Since the Savior en dured the terrible trial and temptation in the wilderness for forty days the .annual recurrence of the season has been gener ally observed by several branches of the Christian and by the Czaholic Church.— Bishop Wood has issued the following cir cular in reference to the present Lent ; 1..11l the faithful who have completed their twenty first year are hound to observe the first of Lent, un less dispensed for legillmate reasons. 2- One meal a day only is allowed, except on Sun .day:. 3 This meal is sot to be taken until abont noon. 4 Un those days on which permission is granted to eat meat, both meat and fish are not to be used at the same meal, even by way of condiment. 5. A collation, or partial meal, is allowed in the evening. The general practice of the pious ehris tians limits its quantity to the fourth part of an ordi nary meal. O. Bread, butter, cheese, fruit of all kinds, salads, vegetables and fish, are permitted at the collation.— 'tad eggs are prohibited. 7. Custom has made it lawful to drink in the morn ing some warm liquid, such a: , tea and eutlee,or thin chocolate made with water. 8. \e•:es+icy and custom have authorized the use of lard instead of butter,in preparing tish,vegetables, fie. 9. The following persons arc nut bound to ob , ,crvc the fast, viz: All under twenty-one years of age; the sick; pregnant women, and those giving suck to hulints; those who are obliged to do hard work; and al! who, through weakness, cannot fast without in jury to their health, to. By dispensation, the use of ile , h meat will be allowed at any time on Sunday, and once a day on ondays, Tuesdays Thursdays, and Saturday, widl the exception of tidy Thursday, and the second and last Saturdays in Lent. . . - . 11. Persons exempted from the obligations of fast ing,, by age orlaboriens occupation, are not restrict ed to the it.se of meat at one meal only. on those days on which its use is granted by dispensation. TUE Hop.—The grand "hop ' given by the "Junior Bachelors" of this place,on Tuesday evening last was the grandest affair of the season. The music by Prof. Keifer and his able assistants was all that the most fastidious cold have desired.— The " beauty and chivalry" of Lancaster were well represented on the occasion,and loud were their praises of the manner of "doing things" in ("olninbia. Our modest friend Sanderson of the editorial staff of the Lancaster Intelligence). seemed in his glory, and looking as pretty as a picture. And the fair ones, how shall we speak of them, only to say All were witty_ All were pretty, Witty and pretty a; they could be." The floor was under thesuperintendence of Mr. D.P.Grillith,an experienced caterer in that line, who exerted himself ttS usual to contribute to the pleasure of all. The refreshments were served in the usual good style of W. D. Smith who fully un derstands this important branch of•the business. The Janitor of the Hall, Mr. Daniel Cully, is the right :can in the right place, as he is always on the alert to make his guestscomfortable and is courteous and affable to all of i °spectral mein and good behavior. The l'estivities were kept up until. the wee small hours when all departed well satisfied with the night's enjoyment. This is the last of a series of the most sociable and interesting parties ever given in Columbia and great credit is due to the efficient management of Mr. Geo. Young, Jr., as under his guidanceand superinten dence these social gatherings were made respectable, interesting, pleasant and highly popular. HEADLEY'S HISTORY OF THE REBEL LIoN.—In another column will be found the advertisement of Headley's history of the great civil war in the United. States.— The book is perfectly reliablo and em braces an authentic account of the whole contest. This work differs widely from the dry and barren catalogues of mere facts; devoid of interest to the reader, which are ()tiered under the name of His iories of the War. Digesting and combining in his own peculiar and masterly manner, and pre senting the whole in his brilliant attractive style, Mr. Headley, makes every page glow with the facination of romance. He brings his reader into the immediate pres ence of the act he describes, and under his powerful pen the momentous scenes of the war pass in review with the vividness and distinctness of a present and living reality. The Work is profusely Illustrated with Engravings on steel, from original Designs by Darley, Parsons, and other eminent Artists—embracing Militay and Naval scenes, and Portraits of leading ac tors in the War, on both sides. In this re spect it will be superior to any yet issued from the American press,—the Engravings alone being worth the price of the Book.— No library is complete without it. FRAUDS ON REVENUE LAWS.—For some reeks past, says the Examiner, ru mors have been ci re ulated upon the streets. that certain prominent distillers in the county, had been detected in largo frauds upon the Government,said frauds consist tng in the parties not making a correct re turn of the whisky distilled, and thereby cheating the Government out of the excise tax of V, upon every gallon. On Saturday last J. K. Alexander, Esq., the Assessor for this District, had a hearing of tho case, front which it appeared' that information was given by George H. Ettla,of Marietta, that John C. Cookson,formerly of Virginia but now of Mount Joy, had been distilling and selling liquor in violation of the Rev nue Laws of the United States. It further appeared tblit Benjamin M. Stauffer, of Manheim borogab, and John Becker of Rapho townsl4, were connected with Cookson in carrying on the distilling busi ness ; and that 21,113 gallons of whisky :had been distilled and sold on which no tam had been paid. After a full investiga •tion in ,tho presenec of the parties and their Attorneys, the Assessor impc,q,ed the tax of two dollars a gallon on the number of gallons alleged to have been sold in vio lation of law, amounting to $42,226. To secure the payment of this a mount, the dis tillery situated in East Donegal township, near Marietta, with fixtures and stock on hand, including 78 barrels of whisky, had been siezed by the U. S. Collector. In ad dition to this seizure, Messrs. Cookson, Becker and Stauffer,were required to give bonds for any deficiency that might exist. There aro numerous charges against other parties, among them one against A. S. Hackman of Mount Joy, who will have a hearing, to-day, With these preliminary examinations and imposition of the tax, the jurisdiction of the Assessor in the District ends. The local Assessor has done his duty, and it re mains with those in higher authority to do theirs. Treasurer's Report of Columbia Relief association, for week ending. Feb. 16th 'GO. Received from W.

Our own Hatters. Mn. ErnTett :—Nature appears to have arranged the deinies of man so as to re quire not only ial, but commercial re lations to be perforated in good faith.— None are exempt from reciprocal obliga trolls, and where these obligations are per formed, she has so arranged her bounties that all may have enough and to spare.— Every community is afflicted with those whom accident has thrown into possession of more of the bounties of nature than is necessary for their support, who not only play dog-in-the-manger with allthoy pos sess, but go growling along like their pro totype, with both feet in the trough of na ture trying to cro everybody else out, whom they mistake for swine like them selves. Others t.re mulish, and again others appear to be a cross breed possess ing a mixture of the disposition of all dumb brutes, particula,rJy, the dumb.— They are too dumb to ever learn their duty towards civilization; and use every argu ment in their power to prove that the human flintily are all as dumb as brutes.— They assume to be prophets ; oppose .all improvements, do nothing themselves, prophecy a failure of every enterprise projected by others, and when any of their fellow men, meet with a reverse of for tune, chuckle with an idiotic smile of wis dom and exclaim, I told you so ; I told you to keep out of that business ! It ap pi ars front the following Photographic Sketch that these animals are of no mod ern invention : 'Of nil the horrid. hideon , notes of woe, M==l til:n porton awls phi 11,12, I told Vroa L+o, • • -• • ". • Uttered by friend-, p'roptiet; of the past:' Some of our enterprising citizens pro pose building a Rolling Mill near the foot of Locust street, and if the proper spirit is shown on the part of those interested. to attach a nail factory to the same. These mills will employ sonic no hands and at a low estimate, pay them $3OO per day or say, $90,003 per year ; of this, =30,000 will be spent at our stores, butchers, bakers and in market. Is the.r.e nmerchant , or butcher in our borough who can see less than ten dollars per day added to his trade, or less than WO per year 04ditiona1 profit in his business from this source ? Then whose bread is to be battered by this enterprise more than these two classes? Railroads, our Rolling Mills and other improvements have nearly doubled the irtlitte of real estate during the last two years and made a demand for a hundred more houses; this projected enterprise will still further advance real estate and make a demand for a hundred more, so that every person owning building lots has a large indirect interest in securing its com pletion. Farmers especially,have a direct interest in securing a better market and an indirect one, increasing the value of their farms. This company will be incor porated under the general manufacturing laws of this State, so that each ono can subscribe in proportion to his means.— Our merchants and property holders should immediately adopt ways and means to have the proper amount subscribed and thereby create a permanent increase of our trade. Three-fourths of all the money paid out for labor, is spent in the place where it is paid out, and there is no busi ness transaction which benefits the whole community in the same proportion as the wages paid forlaber. Pennsylvania man ufactures three-fourths of all the iron made in the United States and can control the market if she will do her duty and choose to do so. Lancaster county is the richest agricultural county in the United States, and the pride of her rich farmers should be sufficient to prevent the stocks of companies formed for the pur pose of working up her own mineral into useful and necessary articles, from going a begging the market. The Rolling Mills and Nail Factories aro owned by tho richest men and richest companies in the State, and although there may be times that the business does not pay as well as other stocks ; in the aggregate the stocks of these companies, pay more than double the income on ordinary investments,—. Shall the mills be built apd $60,000 trade be secured for our borough per year ? This is no mystified sketch of the imagi nation. The "ilo" has been "struck" and is flowing. Shall we tube the well and let li this $60,000 flow into our pockets, or send our "pigs" away and let tho Yankees make that amount ?

Mr. Headley, of all writers, is perhaps best qualided to portray the stupendous features or the mighty contest. His previ ous works on less momentous themes have placed him in the nest position, as a graph ic and powerful delineator of war scenes and characters, and the magnitude and grandeur of the present subject, impart .to his pen the fire and vigor of a yet more ex ulted inspiration, and furnish amolo scope for the highest exhibition of his peculiar genius for military description. .Under his powerful pen the stirring scenes of the War pass in review with the vividness and distinctness of a present and living reality; while his great talent for condensation en ables him to embody everything of impor tance in a compass just suited to the public want. From no other source can so clear and comprehensive an impression of the grand march of events be obtained, so easily and agreeably,as from, Mr..Eleadly's work. Other Histories have been issued before Grant's Report and other Official Docu ments were submitted to the Government, and are therefore unreliable. Mr. Headley h•as dealyed the completion ofilils.till those documents so essential to authenticity and correctness could be obtained. The Second Voluble, completing . this Work, will be iss.led in March, 1566. Agents wanted to engage in its sale in every town and county in the United States. Liberal inducements offered.
