TO ADVERTISEnS
Puma:ors who wish their advertisements to • reach
the greatest number of persons, will do well to avail
themselves of the superior inducements offered
through the columns of the COLIT3IIIIA Srr. 'lt posses
es large advantage over any other newspaper; its
average weekly circulation being more than thirty
' per : cent, greater than any other paper published in
thin vicinity, and promises to be more than one
hundred per cent. greater, in less than six months.—
in addition to this, the patrons of the SPY are of the
class that advertisers wish to reach—liberal minded,
and intelligent people, thereby.making ,lt the most
iesirable medium for all classes of advertisers. This
fact should MA a great weight with advertigers.

Currnrso.—Henry Rice's is the place to
supply yourself with new and fashionable
clothing. He has one of the,largest stocks
to select from to be found outside of Phila
delphia, and he sells at'• a very small ad
vance over first cost. See advertisement.

up to the finestrinality of goods. Call and
be convinced.
R011111:1117.—G. W. Appuld, of this
place, was robbed early on Tuesday morn
ing last, whilst passing over Chiques
of mgold watch, and about eleven dollars in
greenbacks. The robbers also took his
horse and buggy and drove back to Mari

morning, hitched to the wheel of a large
wagon in an alleS,.

Tll}l COAL SCIIUTES now beiii:_!erected
on the wharf at the foot of Loctist street
by the Reading ,tr, Columbia Railroad Com:
pany, are beginning to look like something.
It is thought the work will be nearly if not
entirely completed by Christmas. From
present appearances it will be quite a con
venient and handsome structure,—some
thing that will greatly increase the coal
trade of the R. C. R. R.
NEW. PATENT.—lsaiah R. Richards, of
this place, lies received letters patent for a
HOW and valuable composition, to be used
in puddling iron. The (•liet:Mails employ
ed are peculiarly adapted to expe-sulphur
and phosphorus, and for producing the
best quality of neutral or refined iron, so as
to require no subsequent re-heating, saving
much labor and expense by the use, as lies
been amply proved.
THE BRIDOE.-'—tibOut a dozen stone
cutters are busily engaged on the -wharf
below the steamboat lauding, dressing stone
necessary for patching up the piers of the
Columbia bridge. Masons are also at work
on the piers, re-laying and 14Voling the
loose and broken stone. The stone cutters
will be at work pretty moult all winter, and
it is now thought the work of reconstruction
will be vigorously pushed forward.
THE owner of a copy of " Ogilvy's
Metrical Translation of 'Homer's Iliad—
will be very much obliged if it would be
returned to him soon. Those who indulge
in the use of other people's books ought to
suppose that the owner might also want to
read them. Books are not yet reduced to
The level of umbrellas, and borrowers need
not apprehend that owners will be either
:startled or offended by their return.
READING & COLUMBIA - .a.—The
coal trestling erected by the R. ct.. C. R. R.

completed and ready for use. ' The railroad
company have erected the trestling for the
acconnuodation of the public. Any pei•son
or parties can purchase .their coal by the
car load from the operator at the mines, or
their agents. The railroad company have
nothing to do with buying orselling at that
point. The bins will not bei leased or rent

FouND G Donavan,
charged with the murder of the Squibb tinn
ily, in York connty, in June, 1860, was
found guilty of murder in the first degree,
on Monday last. The jury was out five
hours. It is rumored that the condemned
has made a confession implicating with him
self, his with and two parties who were ar
rested with him, and upon a trial fur the
murder of all the family, acquitted. If this
is true, the Digtrict "Attorney deserves the
severest censure for not aryaigiing the ac
complices so that if acquitted they might:
again be arrested if subsequent develop
ments warranted it. As it is, he they ever
so guilty they cannot again be placed in
jeopardy of their lives.

IM t PORTANT (?) A:: SU 1J NC Wit ExT.—The
La Grosse Demo era l—Briek Poineroy's
paper—announces the fact that F. X. Zieg
ler, of Columbia, is the author of " Chron
icles," a folio sheet circulated here a short
Hine since. Now, if i•lr. Ziegler had hem:
"playing second fiddle" to the Adams Ex
press Company, in place of writing such a
miserable desecration of the Holy Bible,
our com . munity would :MVO been saved the
disgrace of having such contemptible stuff
thrust upon it. He can find time to write
vindictive scurrility, but as the servant of
the Adams Express Company, be frequent
ly has not time to serve the public. So dis
gusting were these "Chronicles" that tho
Pennsylvania nal road Company forbid
them being distributed in their cars. And.
yet it is said some Republicans helped pay
for getting this sheet out. ; The "bmshwack
ers" blow about it, at all events. Spot these
milk and water Republicans.
THE FARMERS ALL lila HT.—Farmers
are just 110 W getting on as well as could be
expected, getting high prices lbr their prii
duce, and at the same time the value of
pretty m tie!) everything they find it neces
sary to buy - is largely depreciated. Most
kinds of dry goods sire down almost to an te
war prices, while the products of tho soil
ore 0110 to two hundred - per cent., and, in
most cases, higher than they were in 1860.
Thus farmers ore getting two or three
prices for wheat, corn, oats, potatoes, hogs,
hay, butter, eggs, while the product of
the loom and the anvil is selling far below
the cost of production. Even with short
crops, fitrmers must accumulate under
present circumstances, while other people
are generally losing money. This is better
than the reverse would be. The rural
districts are good to have capital laid up. It
will encourage agricultural industry, mid
this', nu derlies.all other interests._
houses SAJAIiCE AND RENTS GOING
UP.—There has been put up in Columbia
during this year, over one hundred new
houses, and yet there is not ono for rent: If
there were two or three hundred more put
- up they all could be rented - before a week.
The demand for houses is great, and the
landlord sees the desperate straits to which
people are driven, and the consequence is
they are demanding outrageous rents for
their houses. The question with some of
them is not " What is my house worth a
year'?" or " Whet is a fair price on my in
vestment?" But it is " - How touch will
some ono be forced to pay me?" People
are becoming alarmed. As things look,
none but those of wealth and in receipt of
largo salaries are to have houses to live in.
What can be done to relieve this pressing
want for houses and business places? We
want houses, 'Store rooms, offices, shops, ae.
Can any one suggest a plan whereby oat as
sociation can be formed to erect suitable
tenements? AS our capitalists fail in this
respect, leriiome kind - of building associa
tion be formed that will be a lasting benefit
to our rapidly growing town.

Tlf E ASLILEI'S ; LICHLTS AND SHAD
ows, o Earl:— By the Late L. Augustus
Jone4.—This is the title of a lengthy and
most interesting story, Writkin for the Sev,
by Mr. Jones, a short time previous to
his death. It is emphatically a war story,
and althongh for' sometime past the publi
cations of the day have teemed with stories
whose scenes and incidents were of the war
Ihr the:Union, and they have been read un
til, people have felt almost satiated with
them, still we do not hesitate to predict that
this story will be read with intense interest
by all. The plot is well laid, and the char
acters true to life. The version and rend
ing of the chary tors demand deep knoWl
edge, not only of the language in which
they first took Lucia, but of mull the civil and
intellectual conditions of the Limo and cumin-
try in which they were produced, as well
as the utmost fidelity, end exquisite deli
cacy of taste. it appears to us that Mr.
.Jones lied these requireinents, and exe
cuted his tusk with signal grace mid suc
rose. No reader eon fail to be interested in
the ton ehing filial affection of stout-hearted,
honest .Toe Brown, lbr his widowed mother,
the noble, true-hearted "Frank". Willis,"
and the quaint humor of " Mickey Ragan."
We shall commence the publication in a
week or two, and feel convinced that all
who read the first installment, will not fell
to follow the characters to the end.
FIRE ITEMS.—A self-propelling steam
lire engine, built at the Atnosgeag Works,
recently made a mile in three minutes.
On the return of the Hibernia steamer, - of
Philadelphia, from a tire recently - , an eel
was found in the chamber of the engine.
The Columbia Fire Company of this place
can boast of having one of the finest swam
engines, as well as the handsomest house,
of any other company in the county.

The York Press says that the prospect of
having a steam tire engine in their• town, is

to wait upon some of the citizens anci ascer
tain their feelings in regard to the purchase
of an engine of this description, and, we

tions it met with the highest encouragement,
I any of the persons waited trpon signify

tov.ards the enterprise. Some few objec

is a very silly argument against procuring

Our Cemeteries.
Enrron.—As any remarks reflecting
upon the condition of our cemeteries apply
with equal force to all of Lhe' separate and
congregational burial grounds upon the
hill, as well us to the .new cemetery, in
which I am particularly iuterested,- I have
been slow to assume a prominent share of
dis-credit in endeavoring to defend them
from the charge of neglect and carelessness.
But, at the present time, when a proposi
tion is made which-not only promises but
insures permanent improvement to that
beautiful site near which some, at least, in
our borough, have lived for half a century;
where their grandparents, their friends, and
their children are buried; I venture,. re
spectfully, to remark upon what I suppose
to be a'question, rather than an objection,
made to Councils to oppose, or to delay so
desirable an object. Ido not know precise
ly the words of the objection to extendimmg
the limits of the cemetery, and if it' was
simply requiring a guarantee from the re
sponsible persons proposing improvement,
that these improvements would be made
within a given time, that the grounds should
be kept in neat and tasteful order, and that
nothing in its management should conflict
with the sanitary regulations or other or
dinances of the borough. All this is well
enough, and will be promptly and cheer
fully complied with—for it is chiefly to in
sure such management that organization is
proposed; - but, itirther'than tins; it may be
questionable whether minute enquiries into
the business management of the company
Proposed to be incorporated may not be
unnecessary interference. They propose to
purchase land at less than the price it will
bring as building, lots—to enlarge the ceme
tery, amply for a long time to come; to sell
lots at reasonable prices, to enclose the
ground handsomely, to grade and gravel
the walks, to plant shrubbery, to erect a
house for a person to guard and keep it iii
order--to elect managers, mind to regulate it
according to the rules which have been
proved to be satisfactory in similar ceme
teries elsewhere. -
As to the implied neglect in the keeping up
of the present cemetery, it has its own sins,
and those of the road common to them all,
with its growth of briars and weeds, and
particularly the Potter's Field—all within a
tort night an impenetrable thicket of thorny
locust sprouts—to answer for. The care of
the gate at the front entrance, and the road
—which is used us a wagon road for the
Institute also—and Potter's Field is under
charge of Councils :done. And three-fourths
of the lots in the new cemetery being sold,
the proprietor of the remainder of the
- ground is no more responsible for their
condition than for the order of premises
which he may have sold, because he still
retains a tenement in their vieinity.
As to the space required for burial
grounds for this community, the experience
of the past will he seine guide for the future.
The " brick graveyard'' is a century old, and
several families still hold portions of it
large enough for their wants iii this gener
ation. Net to it, the ground of the Society
of Friends has nineteen-twentieths unoc
cupied. Then the Presbyterian, the Metho
dist and Lutheran have tilled up within the
last fifty years; these grounds, all, include
but two acres.. The new cemetery of less
than four acres was opened fifteen years
ago; and about three acres, (less its wide
paths) has been. sold. Four hundred
hunilies, I suppose, have secured burial
places in it ; but as sonic of these are large
lots, such individual enclosures will accom
modate the present generaton. One-half of
the families who have taken lots will re
quire no other ground for twenty years to
come. And wnen we consider the large
proportion (lithe borough and vicinity who
will be buried only in their own grounds,
consecrated by the German or the Roman
Catholic Church, I assume that burial
places are already provided ibr half the in
terments to occur in our borough for thirty
years to come. The seven acres offered
(and more is easily attainable) will furnish
room for a century to come. We might,
perhaps, as wisely magnify our market
houses, or expand our Churches, now, as to
provide for the possibilities of the great
future of the City of Columbia, as to do so
much in our life time for its future genera
tions after their death. When Columbia
becomes a large city she will not be satis
fied with one cemetery ; and, no doubt, at
that day landscape gardners and horticul
turists, engineers and architects will still
be found and the country still contain:torus
in abundance fer future cities or the dead.
A word about the economy of laying out
fanciful cemeteries at a distance front town.
To tho lovers of the picturesque ; to the rich
man, and those who like to look attheir own
graves as " afar off," the country may do.
Distancc will lend enchantment to the
view,''—pleasant ride—procession of car
riages, and all that. But the poor man
must pay for that, or suffer in the summer's
heat or in the winter's slush and snow; the
cheaply bought lands will not cheapen his
funeral expenses. J. 11. tE.
