TUE FOURTIL—As custotuaryfor the
last few years, nothing of any moment,
transpired in Colombia cm. the Fourth. A.
number of our citizens attended the Flag
Presentation at Philadelphia, and received
fg. slight. pressure in the vast n - mletudo
there assembled. We presume that all
'went, expecting to realize ti pleasant time,
but we know that they retorned,impressed
with the idea, that Philadelphia, on a gala
day, js the wrong place to find enjoyment.
To see the battle-fiats and the remaining
veteran soldiers of Pennsylvania was a
,grand sight,but to have a good view it was
jaecessary to be above the masses and not
many strangers had that privilege,but had
to take pot-luck in the streets and on the
side-walks.
ISLAND PIC-NIC
Several parties were made up in this sec
tion and sought different localities to spend
the day. One of them, composed mainly
,of married folks was on the Island, with
fishing tackle, provisions,slierry-cobblers,
mint juleps, and, as the " head and front"
of the Insurance Company, : , stays, about
twelve copieg of the Declariitton: of Inde
pendence, which were read at 'intervals.
To say that a pleasant time was had Would
not express it,'for to havepleasure it must
be sought, not among young folks, but a
gathering of those who passed through the
'`mill of matrimony." It is also very nice
to have a sprinkling of maidens and their
gallants, to enable them to appreciate that
the sweets of this life are not found in the
troutilotis_spa, of single blpSsedness.
The fishing tackle was brought into use
and the young folks " east a lino" and
waited for a "bite." One of gie party was
fortunate enough' to secure an eel, but
imagined she had a snake and a terrible
clamor arose. (We ha - ve heard of folks'im
agining they seen snakes'kout did not sup
pose Sherry-cobblers Would have such 4p.
effect.) Our friend, S. H. Purple, 4sq.,
made a draw and liectired - the iaro- e .est cat
fish, • •
that has ever been caught in this Byer
with a hook and line: He is'a tempegance
man and did not imagine he• seen mikes,
. but he thought he had a mermaid or some-
thing else. He could not Pull it ont With
out' assistance, and: Fendrich, the,Tobac
„Cbniat. a very small than, aided,"h4l, and
with a pull; a strong pull and a pull all
. together, the cat-fish waslanded'in'slifety.
It weighed just three, lbs. and five Oz.
Everything vas 'passing off merrily,
when about 3 P. M., the heavens opene4,
the rain jell, the ladies ran, the children
screamed, the gentlemen were soaked and
all piled pell-mell beneatha tentand there
awaited the pleasure of the clerk of the
weather. After the storm, the party dis
persed in the best humor,some remarking
• that the closing scene was the best per
formance of the day, although it was not
on' : tha' While ; the married
iplits : laall,their enjoyment the
COIIIT4IBIA FIRE CoMPAITY
and their invited guests also; were in the
heighth of bliss in .4eises' ;Woods. They
had Weber'S Orchestra from Ilarrisburg,
and a splendid platform, protected from
the weather, and bad a "Fourth that was
a FoUrth." The woods was crowded and
from 10 A. M. until BF. M. the, platform
was well used. .611 were merri:and peals
of joyous laughter were ringineand echo
ing through , the woods. • The " Columbia
Boys" are an institution and their Fourth
of July Pic-Nits cannot be Surpassed. The
best order prevailed and the accommoda
tions were excellent. The storm did not
materially damage the proceedingS, its all
were under cover. We are glad that they
were successful, for if we have a deserving
organization in our midst,it is the Colum
bia Fire Company. We will now notice
that the
MARIETTA PIC-NIC
which was well represented by Colombians
,was held in Duffy's Park, and we .re told
an excellent time was.had by the partici
pants? Our good-looking friend Smythe
was general manager and did the honors of
the occasion with a grate unequaled. This
party was disturbed by : the storm and took
refuge in a large barn, where the Glancing
was continued, until nature was herselt
once more, when they returned to.the Park.
The buffalo was the center of attraction,
and it is said that she cut up some queer
antics, much to the delight of the party.
That the eatables were good we judge from
the remarks of a couple who were there,
saying, "they never ate as much at one
time, before. as they /lid at Marietta.."—
Look out, you Mariettians, how you force
our folks to dissipate, or you will regret it.

as usual, performed their part by setting
off tire-erackers and yelling as loud as they
could. Boman candlei, &cc., were dis
played in different parts of the town,every
one celebrating the evening in the manner
suited to their taste.
A:young boy named Wm. Worley shot
himself through the hand by the prema

" Ma: EDITOIL—The citizens of Colum

they have full power to make Laws j eso„for
our good order and government, they will
at once, or as soort,as possible hereafter,
enact arid prepare a body of ordinances,
necessary for that pt6pose, being careful
to halve them drawn up in a proper rnart
ner by a competent person, that they will
be effectual whoa tested before the officers
of the law. Many of as would be pleased
if the charter and ordinances were pub
lished in pamphlet form and generally dis%.
tributed, so that no one can have a pretext
'for not knoWing what he is required to do
or not to do. I have great faith in the
present Council and hope they Will avoid
the too common error of similar bodies in
taking their own members us security for
collectors and other employees, for in case
of default it is always an anpleasant mut
ter to hold a brother member for his lia
bility, and I also expect that in their wis
dom they will see the necessity of doing
something decisive with the slaughter

lest, as Mr. Robert Young of -Coatesville,
was driving .a three-horse .team through
Main Street, the leader became detached,
and went down street at • full speed, euter
ing 'Young &Rambo's Store,ereating quite
an excitement among the clerks and cus
tomers: He dashed through the store; the
spreaders catching on the short counter,
upon which "was a large show ease; filled
with costly,articles,which were all thrown
upon the floor. He - Made his exit through
the back door. upsetting forks, shovels,
brooms, rakes, &c.., and demolishing the
door. After leaving this store he made for
Henry's, but they beheld him and closed
the door in his face. He' was at last se
cured without doing any further damage.
A short time ago, Drs. Coates & Harry
performed a surgical operation upon the
son of Mr. Entriken, a lad about six years
old, 4. "wen" was growing, upon one of
his•eyelids about as large as a pea, and an
operation was performed, but the result
was fatal, as the child bled to death in a
sharttime. Several cases,in this neighbor
hood, where the knife has been used, have
resulted disastrously.
The Fourth was duly celebrated. The
usual accompaniment or fire-works was
on hand. The Saloons were well patron
ized, and the citizens generally, evinced
their patriotism, by indulging in a day of
recreation.

them.
A friend at Coatesville Pa., writes us
a letter in rhyme, from which we extract
the following .
- Accept friend Spy, for your generosity, .
My thanks for the Banner of Light, and Rellgio-
Philssophy;
In return I will send you, all the news that is found,
In this sultry weather floating around:-
Weather that is so hot., it sends hogs to the gutter,
And in the coolest of cellars makes oil of your
butter.
In this place we've two churches, where they preach
to the people,
Ono has a plain top, the other a bell cud a steeple.
Lava, week they held in those places a festival and
fair,
And I'll try to describe to you what they had there:
They had strawberries and cream, they had oranges
• and ices,
And very large cakes'ent down in small slices,
Tey had lemonade that was made in a tub,
At tire emits a glass to wash down your grub•
They had tiddlers that were led by old Ur. Lansing,
Whose fiddling set Ed. the quaker to dancing;
If they'd had them dressed up in buckles and
breeches,
They'd beat the old d—l and the Alloway witches:
They had a big eagle right over the stand,
And under it set our blue-coated band;
hey , had a big drum and a brass cymbal,
But they had no little joker placed under the thimble:
They had a post-office too that looked very fine,
Where you'could billy a letter at five cents per line;
The last night with a raffle they wound up the fair,
At ten cents a e hanee for anything there,
Not excepting in gilt frames a well known prayer;
I tight mention all that they had, and give them a
puff,
But in such sultry weather as this is, l've written
' enough.

we remained until a splendid collation of
dough nuts and gingerbread was served.
On Saturday night while I was wending
my way home, I was startled by a great
noise at the Gap, better known es Pike's
Peak. I listened and to my surprise, I
heard the Canadian General drilling his
legion, composed. of Dutch Pinians, Bob

midnight drill did not last long for the

"L shall have to celebrate the unswerving loyalty
of this army, that ofttimes when the bond of milt

tea duty sc:f impo,ed."
"I shall have to follow it through a oheckered ex
perience, in a tale commingled of great misfortunes,
great follies and great glories ; but from first in
last it will appear that, amid many buffets of fortune.
through "winter and rough weather." the Army of
the Potomac never gave up, but made a good tight,
and tinnily reached the goal."

ZINGARI BITTERS.
A Sure Preventative of
aPI C) :.ERA 1
THIS IS ONDERFLIL REMEDY ices discovered
and introduced about twenty years ago by Dr.
S. cheopaes, an eminent Egyptian physician.
He hod ions seen and felt the want of some reme
dy which would strike Lathe root of disease, wild so
prevent much of the suffering which the human
family was then compelled to endure.
The great question was presented to his mind
every d.,y in vivid colors as he moved among the
sick and dying, and observed the inefficiency of
nearly all the remedies then in use. Thus he was
lead to think and experiment; and after ten years of
study and labor, he presented to his fellow-man the
wonderful Zingari Bitters. The effect of this prep
aration in the prevention and cure of disease, was
so marvellous and astonishing, that the most flat
tering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon
him who discovered it. His name was placed upon
the Roll of Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol
lowing inscription—Dr, Cheopsus, the Public Bene
factor—was presented to him by the Viceroy.
The preparation has been used in several epidem
ics of eholei a, both as a preventive and curative
measure, and with such great success, that it has
been introduced into nearlyall the general hospitals
of the old world. '
The eta saying that an ounce of prevention is
worth a pound of cure. applies with marvelous force
to cholera., and therefore any remedy that will pro
tect us against this terrible disease should be freely
and persistently used.
All pathologists now agree that the cholera poison
acts on the excretory organs, and keeps them in
working order, must prevent a sufficient accumula
tion of the poison to exert its teirible effects on the
organism. This is true not only of cholera, hut of
nearly all other maladies, especially the different
forms of fever.
The Great Zingari Bitters is just such a remedy
as the ab ire eouditions require. Its acts on the
organs of excretion and seeretion,keeping up a per
fect bet:ince between them. This Bitters is com
posed entirely of roots and herbs. so nicely con
cocted that every organ is acted upon and put in
tone. Its taste is pleasant and its effects prompt
and lasting.
Numerous cases of the following disease have
been cured by it: Cholera, Diarrhma, Dysentery,
Typhoid and Typhus Fever, Fever, Ague, Nervous
Deb;lity, Anaemia, Female Irregularities, Dyspep
sia, Flatulency, Co.ic, Scrofula. etc.
