I=l PROFESS - 10:s; Af, CALL ACCEPT ED.— Uany of our readers will be glad to learn by reference to a card in another column that Dr. F. Hinkle, has accepted a call to locate permanently hi Columbia. This will be very gratifying to a majority of our citizens ; not that we have no physicians of equal merit, but to have one so well skilled in surgery is very important to our growing and greatly increasing popula tion. He leaves Marietta with many sill zero regrets, but his arduous practice be gan to tell upon his weak constitution,and he being a constant sufferer from the effects of a septic, or poisonous wound, received - while amputating a limb of one of the wounded from the battle of Gettysburg, at the Jarvis Hospital, Baltimore, has caused his health to fail. lie thinks by avoiding exposure and a laborious country practice, lie may be able to regain, in a grcatdegree, his usual heillth, and still give his patrons satisfaction. He will not entirely give up his practice in Marietta„ but will attend to families when called upon, or will attend to special .eases in surgery, cee. Dr. Hinkle's character as a_ - Physician and kind-hearted, humane gentleman is I"nown to many of us. He• graduated at ,the University of Pennsylvania, Philadel phia, (his rtativo city) in April, ISlf.; and has been in active practice both in inedi- Oita and surgery for over twenty years.— Puring this time he made a tour t o Europe which afforded him no opportunity to visit 110 of the most important hospitals in - London and Paris, thereby obtaining great practical benefit. In 1861. he volun teered his services as a surgeon in the United States Navy, and at Oil time of the capture of New Orleans, he was taken TerTW with typhoid fever, and Was sent 4 0 41 e, !after.. his recovery—being too Weak to go to sea again, he entered the army and served in all, three years during the rebellion. During which time lieassist -9d in dressing the wotauded of eight im- Portant battles. For his record whilst in service, we would refer any one to the Surgeon Generals of the Army or Navy, by whom ho has frequently been compli mented ; ' or we would refer to Prof. W.W. , Gerhard of the University of Pennsylva nia, and to Prof. Pan coast of the, Jefferson Medical College at Philadelphia. Asking pardon of our modest friend, the Doctor, we welcome him to Columbia and bespeak for WM alyilliant and prosperous career, W. U. Hess, has just received at his book slor.e, a largo assortment of sheet music. All popular pieces received soon as published. Ho has also a large and splendid assortment of Violins, Accorde ons, Violin and Guitar Strings, Violin Bows, &c. Also, the largest assortment of Gold Pens ever offered in Columlia. Call and examine for yourselves. A COLLOQUY.--"Why, Catharine ! whore did you get that lavely dress pattern and that handsome lace collar I saw you have on to-day?" "Why, I bought them of Wm. G. Patton, at Maltby d Case's Store, to be sure." Such was the colloquy we overheard in Walnut Street, the other evening. Catharine, or rather " Kate" (for pretty) knew where to purchase. The ladiesof Walnut Street are women of taste, they know where nice goods are kept and are fully posted in political affairs—from arguments we hear. They are a jovial set too ; mirth and hilarity reigns supreme ; if you don% believe it visit that locality almost any pleasant evening. "Oh !" says Deborah, "did you„seethose elegant Silks, splendid Alpacas and beautiful Poplins at Maltby & Case's Store? They are of the rarest quality and their calicoes are all new patterns, and everything they have is sold so cheap." The "confab" here ended with all parties being satisfied that the Rolling Mill Store was the place to buy goods. A FOUNDLING LEFT IN RAILROAD TnALN.—As John Michael's Harrisburg, Acemnmodation Train, on the Penn'a P. It., was proceeding west, on Monday afternoon last, it stopped at Steamboat Station to discharge passengers, when a lady hurriedly entered one of the cars and laying a bundle in one of the seats left the train. She was observed by the brakeman, Frank Barr, who informed the "Judge" that something was wrong, and upon ex amination of the bundle found it to con taint an infant about, two weeks old. It was a bright little baby, neatly dressed ; had a bottle of milk by its side and seemed prepared for a journey. The train was already under headway and Ilse "Judge" scented to bc• in a"clilemma. He stopped the train and backed it to the Station.— loran k wanted the Judge to take it but he would not receive IL. He then carried it into the hotel but the woman said it was not her baby, but that it belonged :',to a railroad man and she did not want dt.— Neither (lid Frank want it. It was left, however, and the train moved oft much to the amusement, of the train hands and pas sengers. It appears that the woman got on Harry Zook's train, east, at i neaster, the same morning, having a ticket for Steamboat Station. She seemed to be uneasy, and told 1 tarry that the baby was not her own, but that sour) one would tbr it. On getting out 01 the ears at the station above alluded to, she attempted to leave it on the seat, but !Tarry " couldn't see it in that light." Ile did not want a lone passenger so in rantile,and made her tame it with her. The lady was neatly dressed, appeared to be about nineteen years of age and rather preposess!ng in appearanee. She evidently \v anted to cover up her own dlsgpttee, or undertook the job for some one else. How (Intel to thus attempt to desert, an inn coon babe. The question arises who (loci the baby belong to? Tito novel idea was sug gested that the stranger be taken charge or christened "19., $30,973 34 ANO II Eit IJOUSE Tit 121? ARRESTED, —Oa Monday night last a valuable horse was stolen from the stable of 'Air. henry Flannery, near Douglassville, Co. Tito lion; ,, appeared to be a *list one and a great favorite with the family. Not wish ing to lose hi at, Mr. Henry Flannery, .Tr., and a Mr. Rupp started in pursuit. They first heard of him near Wormelsdorf.— S.:ouring the country :di over for miles around they clotild occasionally hear of him. They last heard of him in the vicin ity of Litiz, and enquiring the road to Co lumbia. They arrived at Litis, exhausted and tired, just ill time to take the train for Columbia on Tuesday ovum lig, where they arrived at $.30. They proceeded to examine the didl!rent hotel stables, when to their surprise and gratification they found the horse in .Ir. Biacies stable, at the so , ash ington Housejaded and almost rode down, having traveled about one hundred miles, and the horse sick with the distemper They also founcl the thief, asleep in a chair in the bar room. Ile was ;la-rested, put in the lock up and the next morning had a hearing bonito Esquire Evans. The I blot gave his name as Win. F. Jones. He ap pears to be about fifty years of age, with gray hair. Says he has rafted on the Sus ' quehanna. frO Was taken to 'Reading by I Constable McGinnis of this place, and lodged in the perks County Jail, there to await his trial,and perhaps become a. wiser and better man, Mi. Flannery is a very clever gentlman and, deserves great credit for the zeal, skill and sagacity-which he displayed in hunt ing down the thief. Ile appeared to be highly gratified at his success in capturing his noble animal, and ridding the country for a time, of a notorimm . :-horse thief. lie would make a good detective—certainly these thieving characters will have no bu siness in his neighbexhotl; the some time to cease. BAsE BALL.—This community at the present time seems to be badly inflicted with a new epidemic,. which may be styled 'base ball on the brain." There is nothing but base ball from one end of the town to the other,and you can't pass a group of old or young without hearinu;something about 'fly-catches,' or 'runs,' while every ragged little urchin, with molasses candy daubed over his face and a white flag at half-mast, is either 'President" or 'Treasurer' of a 'Base Ball Club.'-111i/tortian The same epidemic prevails in Colum bia. That is the fault of the American people ; every new thing that comes up is overdone—"run into the ground'," We believe :Pas@ Ball, as it is carried on now, to be demoralizing to the youth of our country. It takes them from ottkerstudies. It keeps them from School. It keeps them from learning a trade, which every boy ought to haVe; It takes up, perhaps, val uable time from their employer. It takes up time that should be employed in a more I useful and profitable calling., We beljexe in active, out-dour, athletic exercises, and we believe in Base Ball when not played to excess. But we do not believe in over doing it. Play once a month,or on the holidays during the year. We notice that many of our exchange m s, that at first strongly advocated the gae as being a healthful and pleasant exercise, are now denouncing it as a nuisance and an evil,— it being carried to such au, eNtent every where that it begins to interfere with busi ness, and takes too much of the time that young men owe to their employers., I=l=l - - DELEGATES ELECTED.-James E, Mifflin and Fred. Williams of the 'Colum bia B. B. Club, and A. J. Kauffman, Esq., and R. J. Fry of the Shawnee, have been elected delegates to the State Base Ball Convention to be held at Harrisburg, on Thursday, 27th inst. PERSONAL—M. M. Strickler of this place, the newly appointed Collector of Internal Revenue for this district, entered upon his duties on Thursday last, the 20th inst. The Collector's office has been re moved into the second story of the Union Longue building, North Queen street,Lan caster.. The assessor's office will also be in the same building. COLUMBIA PORT DEPOSIT R. R.— The work on the Columbia &Port Deposit Railroad, at Port Deposit has been put under contract, and a full corps of laborers are at. work. We hope soon to bo able to announco that the whole line is under contract, and work commenced in earnest. This road, when completed, will be a valuable link to our net work of railroads centering in Columbia. PERSONAL.--We had the pleasuie of seeing in our sanctum, yesterday, Thomas Warinu•st, Esq., for many years the Busi ness Agent of the "Old. Folks." He visits our place to make arrangements for the celebrated Spltulding Brothers, Swiss Bell Ringers. He announces in our - columns, this morning, some of the best taleLt that have tbr a long time visited us. The Odd Fellows' Hall has been engaged, and we expect to see a vast crowd at the Concert on Monday evening next. We would say tha, these entertainments are very select and new, something very desirable in concerts now-a-days. MtM Mu. A. M. Thimno ; —Dear ,S 7 r have the honor to acknowledge two ollicial calls signed respectively by many of the most prominent citizens of Columbia, request ing me to locate permanently in your midst and promising their cordial sup port and encouragement.
