TIMES. =lt would be, perhaps, best when people jiear alarming stories of the spread of cholera, and every one is talking of what should and what should not be eaten, that they should persistently refuse to believe that there is such a thing- as cholera in the world, and keep on eating and drinking precisely as they did before, only taking care not to indulge in anything to excess Every one cannot do that, however, and it is, on the whole, better thatpeoplo should pay a little attention to their diet, so as not to give actual encouragemor.t to the disease. Good fresh beef and mutton are wholesome in cholera times, but pork and veal are bad. Fruits should be eaten sparingly and only when perfectly ripe and sound.— Melons are interdicted. Salt meats are healthy, but should not be eaten in large quantities. Eat all the good bread you can, and fill in with crackers, but don't drink too much ice water. Fresh fish is prescribed, don't starve yourself, but eat moderately, and sleep with your head out of the draft. Above all things, don't be scared. Keep sober and be sensible, and the cholera cannot touch you with a forty foot pole. - . THE County Commissioners appointed Ellwood Griest, of Sadsbury Township, Treasurer for this County, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Sam'l Ensminger. THANKS.—John A.

He had a horse and buggy with flaming banners enchside ofthe horse advertising his "Cure-all." He drove through several of our principal streets "blowing" very hard and finally brought up at the foot of Walnut-Street, where, as he said, the people would have a chance "to smile on his iore/y countenance." ire made speech es, sang songs and told stories to an admiring crowd, and let off considerable surplus gas. The oil would cure everything, ex•mpt Captain': Black's "clerk," "Dummy." After considerable puffing and blowing, ho "tied up," satisfied that Columbia was no place to sell electric oil, and this is the only place our reporter could see where the laugh came in. :)ZS,:I. 15-c.
