PIANO FOR SALE.—We have for sale ;
at our domicil in - Walnut street, above
Second, a first-rate Piano, which we offer
.at Fifty-five dolecv‘rB. Dirt cheap. Don't
all apply at once.
TECANKS.—We are under particular
• obligations to brother " Honflest",of York
County, fora sack of his elegant buck
wheat ilour. May you always be prosper
ous, and your crops abundant. It was
quite a treat. The article is scarce in this
ARESPO.NSIBILITY,---We do not hold
courselves responsible for the sentiments
,-expressed by our correspondents. Believ
ing in freedona'lsVtliought, and the right
of expression for ourself,. we would not
odeny the same right to others. We only
: , ask correspondents to base their thoughts
upon principles that will be of benefit to
the reader, to write clearly, pointedly,
well.
THE HUTCRINSON AFFAIR, AGAIN.—
Since our last article appeared, relating to
the rupture between Mr. Hutchinson. and
the workmen at Grubb's Furnace, we are
informed that the first statement was cor
rect ,in the main. Mr. Allison also states
that his name sfieuld not have been made
use of,as lie knew nothing about the affair.
He and Mr. Reid were setting in the
offieeat the time the fracas occurred, and
diciniot see it.
HONESTY.-- Show your respect for
honesty, in whatever guise it appears; and
your contempt for dishonest duplicity,
by whomsoever exhibited. Persons who
buy goods at the Store of I. 0. Bruner aro
always honestly dealt with; they do not
misrepresent their merchandise, and those
that buy there once, are always sure to go
back.
MOUNTVILLE STATION.—This Station
has remained inactive for upwards of
twenty-five years. But now, through the
activity and energy of Mr. M. G. Shindle
.and Mr. Crider, it has just waked up into
existence. A sorghum mill,feed mill and
warehousb have lately been built. A Coal
yard has been opened—a railroad sideing
has been put in, and a ticket office estab
lished; all of which look more like
business, energy and enterprise, than the
lifeless old station of former times.
FALL OF THE LEAF.—The season of
the fall of the leaf has come again, with
all its sad and salutary teachings. Who
can shut his heart against its lessons ?
Who, as he sees the frost-withered leaf
driven by the fitful winds, is not remind
ed that winter is approaching; and it be
hooves ull,to prepare in time for its coming.
To do this, go to the store of Maltby LS: Case
and select from their immense stock of
goods, clothing suitable to the seasons.—
They sell cheap, and the variety of goods
'cannot be excelled in Columbia.
SORGIIIIM.—Mr. Shindle has seat us
n sample of sorghum manufactured by
him, at his works in Mountville. It
pospsses a line flavor, and unlike most
sorghum molasses that we have tasted, it
has nbt that peculiar sickening flavor.—
Mr. S. has put up extensive ,team works,
and is manufacturing the article on an
extensive scale. The crop this eeason is
the largest ever known in the county.
MORE DWELLINGS WANTED.—There
is a crying want for dwelling houses in
Columbia. Fifty more would not meet
the demands. Business men, mechanics
and laborers leave our town almost every
week, for want of accommodations for
their families. We are pained to see this—
it is a burping shame. Let capitalists go
to work and erect moderate sized dwellings,
sell them on time to mechanics, andlabor
ing men, and it would not fail to pr„ve
remunerative investment, and be of a last
ing benefit to the place.
THE NEW SCLIEDULE.—A new sched
ule went into effect on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, on Sunday last. Corrected
time of the arrival and departure of trains
at this place may be found on first page.
The Columbia train has been taken off,
though the Lancaster train runs as usual,
leaving Harrisburg at 7 A. M., and Co
lumbia at 5.30 A. IM.
The change does not seem to give gen
eral satisfaction in this region. We have
now, no train, through East or West.—
The mail train that formerly arrived here
at 11.51 A. M., does not arrive until a fow
minutes of 1 o'clock P. M. Most persons
coming to Columbia, come on this line;
but they - are now discomforted by having
to change cars at Lancaster. Some one
suggested that Columbia had better. be
stricken from the time table. We should
have a through train East and West; or it
we could only get the Erie mail to pass
this way, all would be well.
THE ILLUMINATION.—The Republi
cans of this place celebrated their late vic
tories by a grand - illumination, and the
"Boys in Blue," by a torchlight parade,
an Saturday evening last. The Zouavo
Battalion turned out full ranks, headed by
their Drum Corps and the Union League
Band 'of Lancaster, which discoursed the
most charming music. Nearly all the
business places in town,and many private
residences were' brilliantly illuminated—
some of them wero most magnificent, and
great tasty was displayed in their arrange
ment. In front of Major Pfahler's hard
ware establishment, the " White Star"
appeared, surrounded with gas jets, which
Anade a beautiful appearance, and wan
,greatly admired by the passing crowd.—
'lt was made at the Major's shops, by Mr.
Decker, who , is an experienced gas-fitter.
The most attractive part of the procession
Ras a boat mounted on wheels—drawn by
ten or twelve mules, and filled with a
motley crew, bound for the Saline Springs.
They were greeted with shouts and cheers
from the multitude along the streets.
It.was, perhaps, the largest alTair of the
kind ever witnessed in Columbia, The
streets were packed full of people. Many
persons from the adjoining ;towns and
townships 'were present to witness the
demonstration.
The brilliancy of our streets—the en
thusiasm and excitement of ,the people,
contrasted strongly with the jubilee after
the fall ofitichmond, and the surrender of
Eigg,
DESERVING CREDIT 1 2 —The Spy 'was
gotten up this week, and worked off, by
two apprentice 'boys. one (Will Erwin,)
being at the trade only a few weeks. Be -
sides this, one of them furnished much of
the local matter , and abotit twenty-five
dollars worth of job work was done.
SPLENDID faTS.—lf you cannot get
suited with a splendid hat, of the latest
style, at Shultz's Lancaster, Pa:, there is
no use of looking further. They keep
about the largest assortment of hats and
caps of any store in the State. They
always keep posted in the fashions, and
can suit the taste of the most fastidious.
SALES OF REAL ESTATE !—George
W. Heise sold - his farm of 76 acres, in
West Hompfield Township, to Frank
Shillott, of Columbia, for $135,50 per acre.
We learn that Michael Liphart and Jas.
Vau - gben have each sold lots of ground on
Cherry street between 2cl and 3rd,to Mr. E.
Krause,of Lancaster City. Mr. IC. intends
to put up a fine dwelling and also a brew
ery, ou these lots, which formerly was the
garden property of Col. S. Shoch.
MAN DROWNED. John Henry Jones
a colored man in the employ of John
Brown, and engaged in boating cinder to
the wharf of John B. Bachman, was
drowned on Thursday evening last. By
some mishap he fell off the flat, and im
mediately sank to the bottom_ of the river.
He was raised to the surface soon after
wards and an inquest held by Deputy
Coroner Caney, and a verdict rendered of
accidental drowning.
FATAL ACCIDENT ON PENNA.•It R.
—Early on Sunday morning last, a rail
road accident occurred between Chandler's
and Midway, by which John McGinty,
Cot‘ductor of a freight train, was killed,
and the engineer and several other persons
were wounded, some seriously, among
them Dennis 'Collins, of this place. The
engine and ears were badly wrecked, and
over one hundred sheep were killed.—
The accident was caused by the coupling
of one of the cars becoming detatched,
thus leaving a portion of the train on the
tack; and not being observed -by the
engineer of the rear train in time to pre
vent the accident. Blame is attached to
the flagman in not performing his duty,
in going back far enough to Hag the ap
proaching train. The morning was a
very foggy one.
WAr U. HESS, ESQ.—We have had
frequent occasion in these columns to
notice the enterprise of the above named
gentleman, and we take renewed pleasure
in observing the improved interior of his
handsome store. The display of books,
albums, school stationery, etc., is partic
ularly fine, and exceedingly tempting to
all persons of liberal culture and refined
taste
Some mendacious rascal carried off the
beautiful gold pen sign, lately put up by
Mr. Hess, in front of his store. If the
guilty party can be found out, the severest
penalties of the law will be inflicted.
ACCIDENT.—Benj Vau Lew, - Master
Machinist of the Reading A; Columbia
Railroad, was injured by a collision on
said road, near Deep Cut, on Monday of
last week. Ile was cut on the back of his
hi ad—ankle sprained, and otherwise in
jured. At last. accounts be was 'still con
fined to his room. FoAunataly he was
insured in the sum of five thousand dol
lars, in the North American Transit In
surance Company, by our friend A. T.
Kauffman, esq.,for which he pays thirty
dollars a year, and will draw twenty-live
dollars a week, during the Nvhoie time he
is disabled from attending to his business.
Oar advice to all,is, to insure.
HE_IDQU_IRTERs.—•Our friends in want
of traveling bags, horse blankets or robes,
will find the Gstabl ish mon t of J. C. Pfahler
the headquarters lor these articles. He
has now a better assortment than ever be
fore offered to the citizens of Columbia.—
Rre the carrying bags a few clays
since, and must say they are beautiful
and unique, and comprise all sizes and
patterns; we only regret that we cannot
run, one of them. Ho also has valises,
trunks, rugs, and robes of all styles; also
saddles, harness, etc. Call and examine
his stock. Be sells as cheap as the same
articles can be had in the city.
MONEY STOLEN.—On Saturday eve
ning last, some person entered the house of
Mr. James Bennett,on Walnut street above
Third, and robbed his desk of $545. The
house was entered between eight and nine
o'clock, while the family were absent
witnessing the torchlight procession.—
The robbery was evidently committed by
some person well acquainted with the
premises; as the key was taken from a
crevice in the sofa, where it was kept,
the desk unlocked and the money taken
out. Suspicion rests strongly on certain
parties, yet no clue has been obtained that
will justify any arrests.
CROSBY ART ASSOCIATION.--Read
the article on our fourth nag in reference
to this Association. The drawing will take
place within sixty days, and by the first
of the year some lucky mortal will be the
happy possessor of the beautiful Opera
House in Chicago. For our part we
would as soon have one of the many ex
quisite pictures, to be distributed at the
same time; some of which are now on ex
hibition at E. Spering's Jewelry Store.
Front street, Columbia. Subscriptions to
the Association will be received there.
BASE BALL!--Our citizens who take
an interest in such matters, have had a
perfect carnival of Base Ball this week.—
On Wednesday a game was played be
tween the Columbia of this place, and the
Keystone of Harrisburg, and resulted as
follows; Columbia ; Keystone 45. This
game we announced in our last, was to
have boon played on Thursday,but thro' a
mistake, made by the Sec., of the Colum
bia, the Keystone was wrongly informed
as to the day set for playing them.
The Columbia met with better success on
Thursday afternoon, when they played
the Excelsior of Mount Toy, and were tho
winners of a ball. The scorn standing:
Excelsior 23; Columbia 31. It is due to
the Columbia to say,that they did not have
their full nine out., in this game, Their
Pitcher I;taving hurt his hand on Wednes
day.
This afternoon, the 2d nines of the Co
lumbia, and Tecumseh of Millersville Nor
mal School, play a match game, on the
grounds of the Columbia. Game to be
called at 2P. M. We wish the Columbia
success. The Tecumseh are the challen
gers.
" NATIONAL BLUES" BALL.--The
National Blues' Ball came off in Odd
Fellows' Hall, on Thursday Evening last,
with great eclat. The hall was beautifully
adorned with pictures,wreathes and flags.
The room was well filled with handsome
ladies, and admiring gentlemen, who
seemed to enjoy the delights of the mazy
dance,and the twirl of the polka. We
believe everything passed off to the entire
satisfaction and enjoyment of all concern
ed.
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—PauI Strickler :
of this borough, and son of Jacob M:
Strickler, deceased, met with a very
serious accident in Lancaster, where he is
engaged in the office of his uncle, M. M.
Strickler, Internal Revenue Collector of
this District. It appears ho was crossing
the street, after dark, on Tuesday evening
last, when he was run over by a buggy
driven by one George Messenkop, at a
furious rate. The shaft struck him be
tween the eyes, and the buggy ran over
him. He was taken up senseless and
carried into a store near by, and medical
aid called in; he was finally removed to
the 'residence of his aunt, Mrs. B. A.
Sheaffer. He was senseless for six or
eight hours, and is still lying in a critical
conditiim. Our readers will remember
that this is the young man who barely es
caped trom drowning last S pring. while
out gunning on the river with young
Grubb, who was drowned by the boat
going over the darn.
TIM' Zoo Zoo Hor.—The second grand
Hop given by . the Columbia Zouave
Battalion, in,Odd Fellows' Hall, on Tues
day evening lust, was a great success.—
The room was beautifully decorated with
evergreens, and the stars and stripes hung
in festoons on the walls. The hall was
brilliantly lighted up, and the showy
uniforms of the Zouaves added zest to the
occasion. The music, keffer's 'Orchestra,
was all that could be desired. We shall
not attempt a description of the fair ladies
who flitted about the hall-room,each carry
ing in her train, numerous heart-hopeful
admirers. The fan was kept up until the
" wee sma hours" when all returned to
their homes, highly delighted with the
evenings enjoyment. The Ladies return
thanks to the gallant Zottaves for their
splendid entertainments, and at some
future clay, think of returning the com
pliment.
HIGH PRICES.—SieCe the close of the
war every one has been hoping and look
ing for a reduction in the prices of the
necessaries of life. From present indi
cations, however, the cost of living is
likely to be higher than ever during the
coming winter. One article only, coal, is
cheaper than it has been, while meat. flour
groceries and dry goods have all an up
ward tendency. The grain clops have
been far abo - ,,e the average, and it was
thought that brcadstufl's would be cheaper,
but the poor• crops everywhere in Europe,
and the waste and destruelion of the
German tear, have created a foreign
demand for American grain and run up
the prices. The people, then, must meet
these high prices with proportionate econ
omy, and the rich should not neglect the
poor, for whom there is a hard winter in
store.

numerous and just suited to the ladies.—
Godey is already out with his prospectus

book in 1867. Now is the time to make up
clubs for next-year.

SNOW POWDER.
Patented :Nray 29th, ISGG
This is an article for washing without rubbing, ex
cept in very dirty places. which will require a very
slight rub, and unlike other preparations offered for
a like purpose, will not rot the clothes,but will ica, e
them much whiter than ordinary methods, without
the usual wear and tear.
It removes grease spots as if by mazie.and softens
the dirt by soaking, so that rinsing will in ordinary
cases ern irely remove it.
This powder is prepared in accordance with chem
ical science, and upon a process peculiar to itself,
which is secured - by Letters Patent. It has been in
use for more than a year, •tad has proved itself an
universal favorite; wherever it, has been
A mong the advantages claimed are the following,
viz—
It, saves nil the expense of soap usually used on
cotton and linen goods.
It saves most of the labor of rubbing, and wear and
Lear.
Also, for cleaning windows it is unsurpassed.—
With one quarter the tuna and labor usually re
quired it imparts a beautiful gloss and lustre, much
superior to any other mode. No water required ex
cept to moisten the powder.
Directions with each package.
And can be readily appreciated by a single trial.—
The cost of washing fora family of live or six per
sons will not exceed three cents.
The manufacturers of this powder Ave aware that
many useless compounds have been introduced to
the public which have rotted the (loth, or failed in
removing the dirt, but knowing the intrinsic excel
lence of this article they eontidenily proclaim it as
