DIE CHOLERA is raging fearfully iu different parts of the country and it be, hooves our town authorities to look well to the cleanliness of our borough, to sea that our streets; lanes, alleys and slaughter houses are kept in a perfectly clean con di lion. Let every family have their "lamps trimmed and burning,"' look well to their cellars, sinks, drains and out-houses ; have them whitewashed and apply disinfectants and you will be proof against the scourge, which, in its most fatal form, is steadily and resistantly moving eastward. It began its march on the far-western boundaries of Kansas and has already gained the banks of the Mississippi. At Memphis, its furth est eastern point, it is known to be raging with virulence. The daily papers there have ceased to mention its ravages, but it is rumored that for the hist week the deaths have numbered as high as fifty a day. THE NATIONAL GAME.—On • Monday next, the nine of the Columbia Base Ball Club, (at least as many of it as are lucky . enough to, receive permission from their employers,) will visit Middletown - , for the purpose of - playing a match ganfe of ball with the - Oudins of that - place.

DAVELLINOS SHOULD HAVE A SOUTH - - EDLY AsrEe'r.—No dwellings are so pleas ant, because so healthful, as those ,which have a southerly aspea. People who live in houses looking chiefly to the north and bast, suffer seriously, if not sensibly, from the imperfect running of the air; the un kindliness of the aspect imparts itself to the occupants; that the heart- should look southward, our window's should do so. No one can say how mach sickness and debili ty, how much ill temper and moroseness are not °Wing to self-imprisonment in dark streets and dull counting houses, and back parlors, into which a 'sunbeam never en- , term. "Truly the light is sweet, anda pleas ant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun." School rooms, most of all, should tic on the sunny side of the house; no sensible school-muster ever places them anywhere esle.

Thomas A. Scott, Vice President of the Pennsylvania Central Rail road: Mr. S. was formerly a resident of Columbia, where he has many friends, and is highly,popular.: He is now in the prime of life, though his 'physical energies appear somewhat ex hausted by the tremendous exertions -of his mind. Had he other than an iron frame, long ero this his. biographer would have written in memoriam instead of: in vita, for had Mr. Scott had not possessed a constitu tion far superior to most men, his labors years since would have broken him down. Among all men where Mr. Scott is known, the general opinion is, that few per sons think more rapidly or execute ,with greater force end directness. of, purpose .khan he, and the opinion of tiaptain Ber thoud of Mr, .S. was, that ho wasAulight ning." Berthoud' remarked' that he' had been interrogated by many men as to the best route for the Pacific rend across the Rocky Mountains, but Scott vies the only man who Lad not asked -him .nonsensical questions'. Rapidity is the .leading charae , teristie of Mr. S.'s mental operations; and it .heirteen asserted by - some of his friends, thifrhe finds. a conclusion and afterwards 'gives Ids'preinises ; be this as it may, few men have,blundered less than be, whether they have arrived at their conclusions by intuitiorOrarconcatenation of reasoning. We have often thought that the facial ap pearance of Scott. resembles that of Whit field, the distia,„.•uished revivalist, and we think that had Whitfield been called to the Penn Sylvania Railroad when the stages ran to the Mountain house, and continued to think and act as Mr. S. has for 1.E . () last twelve years, the saintly look of Whitfield would have been changed to the Vire and action" expression of one of our most dis tinguished railroad men. it is only. to a few that Mr. S. has given evidence that he possesses those qualities. that make men loved by their fellow-men. All concede him ' remarkable intellect and untiring energy, but many assert that he is wanting in those human sympathies which endear man to man., But this idea of the character of Mr. Scott originates from the - titet that' few men know him - intimately, and that he does not carry his heart in his coat sleeve. We have known him in his kindness - --we have known him in his sympathies, and never have we known a man whose heart could be so easily reached by genuine dis tress or friendship. Mr. Scott's labors are not yet completed, and his friends predict for him a career commensurate with, if not superior to, his past achievementg, as one of the leaders in Railroad progress. T OLD - RAIL 116.11) FIIO3I PiIILADELPIILI TO COLumati.-Since the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, bipur chase, came into possession of the Uld Alain' Line of Public Works, the railroad between this city and - the Susquehanna river at Co lumbia,, where the canal connects with it, has been constantly improved, till now it is in very much better condition than ever before. The road is double [lack, heavy rail, and- well ballasted. The bridges, one Ib7y one, have been xenewed, 'and when the new structure no sin process of erection over the West Brandywine al Coatesville shall have been completed, the new Series will cover all the intersecting streams be tween the Schuylkill and the Susqtfehanna. To thoSe who passed over the railroad to . Columbia twenty years ago, a ride over the same road now, is suggestive of many and marked contrasts.' And when the curva ture between Ilaverford and - Valley Creek shall have been reduced, according to a plan and policy agreed on, the Philadelphia division of the Pennsylvania Railroad will have been thoroughly improved and mod ernized. The traffic over this division is destined to undergo constant increase and to attain enormous totali; alrettdy, since the Con necting Railroad was opened, it is attract ing much business which heretofore sought its destination over another route. And when it is considered that the Philadelphia division is the east end GI: the Pennsylva nia Railroad and-of the Pennsylvania Rail road Company's system, and that whilst the Pennsylvania Railroad technically ter minates at Philadelphia, it has a powerful ally which gives it a joint Mileage to New York, as against all possible combinations via Allentown, it is easy to realize, pro:xi mately, the importance of the Old State road as a link in the transportation chain which unites Pittsburg, Philadelphia and New York, and which includes'" the entire mileage of two powerful corporations.— Philadelphia 3lbling _Register•. ~, . , YORK /COUNTY - AEFAIRS..—+A fanner whjr am nalrici ; of ISeller, rosidingl,near _Floi-- shayrs iNriu; had; his-honso brokeninto by some - scoundrels* on Monday evening 'A week, and 'a quantity of wearing apparel stolen therefrom.

EDITOR:—I perceive by the lust few numbers of your valuable 7 and interesting paper—l believe that is tho approved mod ern style'of begining au article—that there aro differences of opinion as to the propriety of opening additional.streete in the borough of Columbia;. and-ids°, tbat your contribu tors don't feelwilling to rest their respective. cases squarely upon their merits, but find it necessary to descend to rather uneourte (Ms language to one another on the subject. Now, this should not be: A subject of pub-- lio interest should be discussed calmly- and dispassionately, _without the appearance of any personal feeling i n the matter, if the per son is desirous of making converts to his , way of thinking.- In the particular ease in point viz opening of additional streets, or the exten sion of already:existing ones, for the -pur pose of increasing the urea of the town, and providing additional facilities for building, and by that means inducing additional pop ulation, and, as a COUSCiptC7LoC, additional prosperity; I think there should be but ono opinion, and that one concurring' in the wisdom that suggested the proposed exten-, sion •, for it has been conceded on MI hands that the limited area in the market as build ing lots, acted as a serious draw-heck upon the improvement of the borough. But there is often times "a Wheel within a wheel," and that inner wheel isJiot al Wfir visible, but in this case the inner wheel is plainly visible through the transparent cov erir!g afforded by the outer one, and the op position of your correspondent is not to the CVC7I3iO2I, of the, town, (if I understand the case,) bat to his being called upon to pay for it.. Now, the question arises,-is he right, or is he wrung in.that opposition? 1 will give'yoU my opinion—nonsked—so I will charge-you nothing: for it. It is this: The person or persons benefited by any public improvement, should pay for that improve ment out of the appreciation of their prop erty caused thereby. This is a plain prin eiPle, recognized and acted upon everywhere else. In Philadelphia andeverywhereelse, except Columbia, whenn new street is ooen ed, graded, curbed, or paved, or in any other way improved, so as to enhance the value of the property frontink, upon, and contigu ous to the said street, the cost thereof is Its- SeSSO upon the owners of the properly,thns appreciated in value, just in proportion to that appreciation. Does any one doubt the perfect fairness and equity of this plan?— If he 'does, let him look at the palpable un fairness of 'any other plan, and I think the; case will prove itself by the'reduciio ad ab surdum. Suppose a ease. —A owns a block of building lots in the northern part of the borough, worth -5500 each, and readily sale able at that price, on account of the limited number of lots in the market; the borough Council determine to open or extend a street' or streets, southward or eastward, by which fame land (worth ',WO per acre,) is brought into competition with A's block, as build-. ing lots, and A's property thereby depreci ated-ten, fifteen, - or twenty per cent. (for, we all know that in this matter asin all others, the rule of supply and demand determines prices,) should A be taxed to depreciate the value of his own. p . roperty, or should the cost of the street opening be paid by the owners of the farm land? I think thiserzuestion, . • properly considered, can receive but one' answer; viz : the answer which it has already had in the practice of all other corporations ; and I further think, that - When it once prac tically receives that answer front our Bor ough Council, they will find the opposition to the indefinite extension of the town, to vanish like mist before the morning sun.

POLICE CASES.—The • following cases appeared before Morris Clark, Esq: Assault and Battery.—Charlotte Loney made complaint against E. Smith, and C. Loney, (colored.) 'lt appears in this ease that Charlotte sent Smith and wife a bureau, to put their good clothes in. The waters were calm and serene, but in due time the winds began to blow, the waters to move, and a storm arose so that Charlotte demanded her property, but Smith did not manifest a willingness to give it up. Par ties live in one house. During the absence of Smith and, wife, Charlotte took the priv ilege of going- into Smith's apartment, opened the drawers and scattered things about the room in every direction. Hence the melee: Lydia Ranson, a regular built shanghae, made complaint against Rebecca Young, a small respectable looking colored woman. Lydia swore this woman did throttle and tear her throat badly. The scrape grew out of Rebecca sending Lydia a ribbon, to help ornament her "coal-black the In due time Rebecca demanded the ribbon, for it was getting the worse for wear: This bad a tendency to raise Lydia's rissibles; said she could buy her a new one. Then came the tug of War. Rebecca came out victorious. :gamey Chaney made - complaint against Elizabeth Snyder, for committing an assault mid battery on her, in her own house. It appetured that three thmilies occupy one house, and all blessed with children, and when they are molested by. either party that is the signal for war to the knife. That is about the way this set-to began At the hearing they pitched into 'each other pretty freely. The Justice thought plaintiff did not sustain the charge of :mum It and battery according to, her own witnesses. Parties live in Marietta. ' Elizabeth Hariis made complaint against Frederick Smith' for pushing her Mr the walk on which she was standing, and pull ing it stick violently - through her baud; and mode divers threats that did not go down well with Mrs. Harris. It appeared at the trial, that Mrs. H. had a' little child under her care, and she thought it had not quite fair '1)141y. Hence the row. Women, children, and chickens against the world to kick up a fight.

The rapid progress of the 'Union Pacific Rail road, now inuldingwest from Omaha, Nebraska, • and forming, with Its western connections, an unbroken line across the continent, attracts at tention to the valueof the First Mortgage Bonds which the Company now offer to the public. The first question asked by prudentinv estma is,"Are these bonds secure'!" Next, "Are they a profit able investment?" To reply in brief: Ist. The early completion of the whole great line to the Pacific Is ascertain as any future busi ness event can be. The Government grant of over twenty million acres of land and fifty mil lion dollars in its own bonds practically guaran i tees it. One fourth of the work is already done,. and the track continuesto be laid nt the rate of two miles a day. 2d. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds are Issu ed upon what promises to be one of the most profitable Mies of railroad in the country. For trimly veins It must be the only line connecting tile Atlantic and Pacific; and being WithOUt eoM petition, it can maintain remunerative rates. ' 3d. 376 miles of this road are finished, and fully equipped with depots, locomotives, carsAc4and two trains are (lane i aiming each way. The ma •36-01c-AirtrtZireniiklzlitintlrese male _eastern 0 e-natim7nrcr it is under contras bedone In September. 4th. The net ea lugs of the sections already finished are srverat,thacti greater than the gold in terest upon the First Mortgage Bonds upon such sections, and if not another mile of the road were the-part already completed would not only pay interest and eapense.s, but be profitable to the Company. lilt. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds can Ire issued only as the road progresses, and therefore om never be in the market unless they repre sent a tosalide property. SIM Their nmonnt is strictly limited by law to a sum equal to what is Erran Led by the U. S. Gov ernment, and for which it takes it aroma lien as - Its security. This amount upon the first . 5 / 7 miles west front Omaha is only 116,000 per mile. Ith. The fact that the U. S. Government con siders a second lien upon the road a good Invest ment, and that some of the shrewdest railroad builders of the country have already paid in five million dollars upon the stock (which is to them a third lien), may well inspire confidence In a lirst Hem • • Bth. Although it Ls not claimed that there can be any better securities than Governments, there are parties who consider a first mortgage upon such a property as this the'very best security in the world, and who sell their Governments tore invest in these bonds—thus securing a greater interest. 9th. As the Union Pacific Railroad bonds are ofrered for the present at 110 cents on the dollar and accrued interest, they are the cheapest secur ity in the market, being, 15 per cent. less than U. S. Stocks. 10th, At the current rate of premium on gold' they pay . Over Hine per Cent. Interest.
