RESIGNED.—We learn that Mr. S.:W.
Mifflin, has resigned the position of Chief
Engineer 'of the Reading & Columbia Rail
read., and Mr. Chas. McDonald has been
appointed in his place. Mr. Me Donal(' was
formerly in the employ of the Atlanta ck:

IMPROVEMENT IN RAILROAD IRON.—
Mr A. .1", Rindomire of Robrerstown, this
Coon ty,•bas taken. out a patent for steel
head railroad iron, which we think will
supersede " allother rails .noW' in use. A
new and cheap process is used to -the
face, or head of the rail with - steel. It
works admirably and must prove very
lucrative to the inventor, as large offers
have already been made to him to engage
in the' manufacture of his-!`patent steel
head rail."
ECONOMY IS WEALTII—It is sup
posed that nine•tenths of all' the wealthy
men in the world laid the tbandation
of their wealth by the.practice of ecoriOnly.
That is living saving,ly; and in no manner
can a man that has a family live moiesav
ingly than by buying 'his Dry Goods at
the Cheap Cash - Store of I. 0. Brunner.
For by so dOing he can- save from 10 to 15
cents on each thillar's worth o f goods that
he needs for his family.
i - )13 AND GIRLS WEEKLY.—We have
received No. 4, of a new illustrated paper
en titled Boys and Girds Weekly. It is from
the fertile preSs of that enterprising pub
lisher Frank-Leslie, 537 Pearl Street, - New
York. It is one of the best, and, most ;in-
Structive juvenile works yet published and
when fairly introduced—as it soon will be
—must-take the lead of all others. Send
and get a copy—only five cents, or $2. 50 a
year. With this number every sr bseriber
or purchaser is entitled to a sirlendid Gilt
Plate,"General Wayne's Assault on Stoney
Point." This picture alone is worth a
year's subscription. -Address the publisher
W. U. Hess will furnish it.
THE BUILDING ASSOCIATION.—This
association met on Friday, ey,ening,2d lust.
A. committee was' apphinted to sblict -Sifb
§eriptions, and other important business
was transa2.ted. About thirty thousand
dollars is already subscribed in aid of the
project. MfiCh more yet remains to be
done before the objeet can be accomplished.
Many of our monied men yet stand aloof,
and unless they come forward and put a
shoulder to th i s wheel, the enterprise• will
fall through. Such a - project would be a
lasting - benefit to the place, and we hope
it will go on.
" WOULDN'T COME TO TIME,"—WO
'understand that the " Athletic" Base Ball
Club of Lancaster,. some . time since, ac
cepted a challenge from the " Columbia"
Club, of this Borough, to play a match
game, on Friday the 2d inst. Accordingly
the'!t'Columbia Boys" left here in the 5.30
'A. train, for Lancaster, on the above
mentioned day. But the " Athletics"
;; iyouldn' t come to time." Their- excuse,
we believe, was, that they wished to have
'sociable - game to' themselves,'—which
was equivalent to a back-down. The "Co
lumbia" do not think muchof the chivalry
of the Lancaster Base-Ballers.
COLUMBIA BAIDG.I.LTbe bridge over
the Susquehanna,' bet Ween Columbia and
Wrightsville which was destroyed by the
rebels in June 1863, has, not yet been re
built, much to the disadvantage of trade
and commerda of Columbia. The right of
way is owned by the Pennsylvania ,Rail
- road Company; and when 'it came . into
a
their possession, it was thought that new
and substantial bridge would be built at
once, bat we were doomed to disappoint
ment. There is no, visiblo effort made to
re-build it, and the reality is staring us in
the face, that a great portion of our trade'
froni York county and elsewhere, will be
cut oft for some time to come. Let our
people on both sides of th e river look around
for some means of escape from this oppres
sion. If the Railroad Company will not
build up the bridge, let Them sell Out "to ; ,a
company that will build 'it. What.is our
people waiting for? Let us have sonic
legislation on the subject and see if we can-
riot bring about some plan that will secure
us the reconstruction of a bridge over the
Susquehanna at this point, if not by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, by some
other company ; no matter who, so that we
get a bridge. The only remedy we have
now is the running of a steamboat, which
is very good as far as it goes, but it does
not afford the accomodatiou that a bridge
would. This is ainatter in which all 'our
citizens are interested, and we hope.an ar
rangement may be effected to relieve us of
this public want.

MRS. FRY'S liklMOvAL.—The York
Republican, comments as follows upon the.,
removal of Mrs:Fry from thti Post Office
of Wis place.
Andrew Johnson has removed Mrs.
Mary J. Fry from the office of Fost Mis
tress at Columbia, Lancaster C',ounty, and
appointed kienry W. Shultz in her place.
Mrs. Fry is a widow—was appointed to
succeed her husband at'his deatu, and one
or more of her sons were air tle Union
army. We suppose that wasaher olience,
us sue could not have offended on the score
of Politics. Well as Andy has succeeded
so badly in his coutroversey with the men
of the country, he is going to take his spite
out of the Wolltell, atter the fashion of the
sneaking bov,who having been Well
Ped by a comrade, whimpered out, "if I
can't lick you, I will make mouths at
your sister." if reports be true, Andy is
not so cruel to the wotnen who hang around
the N Vbi tO douse, actilig as pardou-brokers
and who receive his most distinguished
consideration. A lady afar off does not
meet with the same favor. Both Mrs. Fry
and her late husband were natives and
former residents of this Borough.
—Vashion 'rules the world,
and a mo•t tyrannical mistress she is—
compelllng people to submit to the most
inconvenient things hnaginable, for her
sake.
She pinches feet with tight shoes, or
chokes ns with a tight neckerchief, or
squeezes the breath.out of our• body by
tight. lacing.
She makes people sit up by night, when
they ought to be in bed ; and keeps them
in bed in the moring wnen they ought •to
be up 'and doing. •
She nakes it vulgar to wait upon one's
Self, and genteel to live idle and useless.

The Crosby Opera House Art t►s-
The success oft his—the most stupendous
Art enterprise of the nineteenth centbry—
is already an accomplished Met.. The as
surance of Mr. Crosby to that effect;
strengthened by the concurrent testimony
of the wealthy and - influential. Committee
appointed to• superintend the drawning,
and the personal guhrantee of Samuel M.
Nickerson, Esq..(a gentleman whose un
doubted integrity is backed by unlimited
pecuniary neans), has appeared in a former
issue of this paper. :The sale of certi ticates
has been rapid and immense, and fully
justified thus far the expectations of the

sociation.
remain in the hands of agents scattered all
over the country, the extreme shortness of
time (as orginielly limited) precluding the
pssibility.of their sale, before the date of
drawing.
Ono obstacle, which has seriously retar
ded sales, has been the resolute impossi
bility of furnishing engravings as last as
required. Although the presses of the
Association Lave been worked night and
day, tho *demand has far exceeded the
supply.
Alter duly considering this, Mr. Crosby
has concluded—in justice to the interests
he represents. and in defference to the wish,
of the public, which (so fax.can be ascerta
ined) is ,almost universal—to delay for a
short time the closing of the subscription
' books, so as to extend the area of mem
bership as widely
, as possible,
- In adopting this course, the Actuary has
consulted the members of the Committee
on drawing and others, who agree with the
management that - a short extension of
time will amply suffice, at the present
rapid rate of sale, to dispose of the remain
ing tvrtitiCates. The names of the. Com
mittee are, a sufficient guarantee of the
soundness and disinterestednes"f their ad
vice, as thorough and competent business
men..

Tne integrity of all connected with'the
management of this colessal enterprise is
too nrial, established to admit, of a mo
ment-, doubt or eavil. The honor and
reputation of some of the wealthiest capi
musts and intluenual business men in the
country are identified with its ultimate
triumph and complete - success. For
reasons above stated, thesegentleinen not
only approve, but advise this temporary
delay, eonridiiit that such to policy will
equally inure to the- benefit of the public
and Um interests of the Association. No
one wno can form an approximate idea of
the enormous scope and magnitude of this
truly wonderful' enterprise—involving as
it- has from the moment of its organization
(barely three months ago) the establish
ment of hundreds of locus agencies iii every
city, town and hamlet of the States and
Te.rritorie,, the employment of an im
mense clerical. fore, the printing ofthous
ands of superb engravings, and the
im
manse details included under the general
head of correspondence, advertising, tele
graphing, expressing, hesitate to
admit or concur in the propriety of this
step.
We can assure our readeas that every
pledge given or promise made will be
faithfully carried out, in strict accordance
with the original spirit.
An elegant discriptive catalogue, giving
a complete list of prices, has just beets

The I\lanagement would announce that
the thite limited for the closing of the books
has been found too short to complete an
undertakings of such magnitude.
•The sales have been very large—suffici
cientto insure the entire success of the en
terprise: Had it been possible, within the
short time allowed, to have furnished the
engravins as first as they have been re
quired, there, is not the -least doubt that
every certificate. would now itave been
disposed of.
There has been a general deairo,however
to receive the engravings at the time of
subscription, and the dila:lay hereto. ore
of fully Com plving with this desire Lay
materially retarded the nrocrras of the

SNOW POWDER.
Patented May 29th, ISG6
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 leave
them much whiter than ordinary methods, without
the usual wear and tear.
It removes grease spots as if by magic.and softens
the dirt by snaking, so that rinsing will in ordinary
Cases entirely 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
u..e for more than a year, and has proved itself an
universal favorite; wherever it has been used.—
Among the advantages claimed are the following,
It saves all ihe expense of soap usually used on
,cotton and linen goods.
It saves most of the labor of rubbing and wear and
tear. . .
Also, for cleaning irinuow•s it is unsurpassed,—
With one quarter the time 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 still each package.
And can be readily appreciated by a single trial.—
The cost of washing for a family of fiye or six per
sons will not exceed three cents.
The manufacturers of twig powder are aware flint
many usele,s compounds have been Mtreilneed to
the public which have rotted the cloth, or failed in
removing the dirt, but knowing the intrinsic excel
