made, " where did that big corn coni. -
from?" On one of the ears, over thirteen
hundred grains were counted; indeed, some
• of the ears are large enough for an Indian
war-club. Our West Homptield Harmers
should call and see this fine specimen of

THANKs.—There is a silver lininz to
almost every cloud. There are lights and
gay colors in almost every picture, however
dismal its general tone. Even the austeri
ties of Editorial life are softened, even its
har.h and hard experience is ltri4 - htened
by occasional pleasant incidents. We pre
sent herewith, a pietnre of the present we
received a few days since front an esteemed
friend in Coney. We also received/ .. )
a similar bird a short time since ``s
W
front a valued friend in est
Ilemptield. We would here return thanks
to our friends, who, in the hoar or their
prosperity have kindly remembered us.
Even long after the " gobble" of these most
sought for birds have ceased their sweet
music, will we remember and cherish the
names of EIARILY and Jo Ft with the fond
est and tenderest idolatry.
"BLACtiBURN'S Hom.k.B.
This is the name of a newspaper published
at Holum', Louisiana, by W. Jasper Black
burn, Esq. On looking through its col
umns, we observed the card of A. J. Kauff
man, Esq., of this place. This led us to
make some inquiry about the paper, fCc;
and Mr. K. informs us that the editor is a
staunch Union man, and remained so all
through the war. He was often threatened
with death—had his printing otlice destroy
ed, and lost all his property. Notwith
standing all this, he bitterly opposed the
rebellion, remained true to the old flag and
spoke his mind freely on all occasions. Ho
was born in the South, and never was in
the Northern States until after the close of
the war. We hope brother Blackburn will
lie amply rewarded for his fidelity to
the Stars and Stripes, during "times that
tried men's souls."
CoLunlrA SKATING PARE.—On Thurs
day last, a space of three hundred feet was
surveyed and staked out on the ice, mt the
Susquehanna, near the foot of Locust street,
and workmen are now engaged in clearing
the park of the snow and loose ice, prepar
atory to flooding. which, when frozen, will
afford a line, smooth sheet of ice, 12(10 feet
in extent. The expense attending this
work is borne by an organization of our
citizens, (those of them who tire " skatists")
and will be known as the •• Columbia
Skating ChM." The club now numbers
some thirty-five members, and the determi
nation is to have a good park, kept. in good
order, so that au opportunity - may be atlbrd
ed for all to enjoy this, tine and healthy
amusement at a very trilling expense. The
fee for met bership of the club is one dollar,
and those who are not members arc expect
ed to pay an entrance fee of teti cents for
each admission. 4 , Tho p e ar will be liber

IltumsTmAs.—Before ;mother isue of
the Soy, the Christmas c,f l,cti7 will have
come and gone. The merry tinkle of the
innumeraLle bells reminds us of the fact,
while it annoulleeS that the peculiar enjoy
ments of the season have commenced in
earnest; that, out and young, the staid :Ls
well as the frolicsome, have resolved on a
pleasant pastime, in which all kinds of
business and the usual daily avocations,
must give way to. May it prove for all the
readers of the SPY', a merry and a happy
time.
It is safe to assume that, with rare ex
ceptions, such will be its record. For it
must he induct: a heavy cloud of sadness
that Christmas does not lift, at least tem
porarily, and deplorable is the misery that
shuts out every glimpse of gladness on die
birth-day festival or the Lord. The hard
est faces soften genially, the most weary
eyes brighten then, and good cheer and
fellowship lighten places that are darken
ed every other day of the . year. It would
be intrusive to urge uyon anybody, the
duty or getting fro‘n the holiday the full
measure of enjoyment. We hope it is
equally unnecessary to suggest the other
duty of enabling others to enjoy it. IL is
not the least blessed privllegti of the day
tlTt a great deal of happiness may 1, , e de
veloped trout it very lit tle material. An ef
fort, so inconsiderable as to be scarcely ap
preciable on the part or every In elllber of It
household where luxtnies are so nnfaultug
as to scent nothing more than common
comfort's, would assure a cheerful Christ
mas in all the houses or the poor. Columbia
benevolence is of such wide repute that we
do not mean to indicate a duty : we simply
record the fact that children under their
Christmas trees, and older folks around the
well-tilled table, will not forget to purchase
the highest pleasure at the trilling cast of
timely charity.
Let 'every indi rhino], connnunity and
section, bound in a clover brotherhood, feel
that it is their duty to
Gently scan your brother num,
gentler sister, woman,
Though both may gang a golml , ' wrang
To step aside Is hunt:M."
We wish all our readers a merry, happy
Christmas, mid many returns of that bless
edrday f and that the good feeling it will
engender, and the beneficence it commem
orates, may inaugurate a birth of `•peace
and good will — in our whole country; that
at the next advent season the glad angels
may renew above us their Christmas carols,
and repeat the " glad tidings of greet joy"

TEACHERS' INSTITUTE..—We gave
notice last week that the County Superin
tendent would bold a Teachers' Institute of
two days duration, in this borough, on
next week the 20th and 27th lusts. These
institutes have taken high rank for the in
terest and instruction they afford to teachers
and others, who attend them. Wherever
these branch institutes have been hell the
citizens of the immediate vicinity have
availed themselves of the advantages to be
derived from them, and we greatly mis
take the intelligence of the citizens of this
community, if they do not fill the hall of the
Union School at every session, morning,
afternoon, and . evening., The various topics
and relations of the teachers efforts ain't
duties necessary to the successful working
of the schools, and of the school system,
will here be brought up for discussion and
be the theme of essays and lectures. Now,
that the cause of popular education has
taken such it strong hold upon the people,
and is the subject of so much attention and
investigation by some of the ablest and hest
men of this country and of other count' les,
we cannot but regard it as a rare opportun
ity our citizens will have of hearing the
()pillions and experiences of those whose
hearts are in the work, and whose aims and
hopes, talents and etlurts have all been and
will he devoted to the one great purpose and
resolve of making the Common School Sys
tem of this country the pride of the Nation.
ft is by meetings such as this, that we may
lea rim the great work that is being done and
to ho done. (me obstacle to the sluices,: of
popular education and the efficiency of our
schools, is the ignorance and inflifrerence of
the people. Jf these could be brought to
know and appreciate the benefits of good
schools, and the value of education, one
half the labor of educators would be accom
plished. Let our citizens, then, be in
attendance next week, and help on the
great work by their counsel and counte
nance. If this Institute shall not accomplish
the results anticipated, let no censure be
attributable to the teachers and citizens of
Columbia.

the laboring man and mechanic are urged
to vote for the " big bugs' of the party for
Conncilmen, as the only means of saying
the Borough from baiihruptcy, and the
streets front bein.r oven uTown with a
ant growth of grass. Thus. this demagogue
sings his syren song. fit December, MG,
he sang a different song, and wanted
" Young America - anti • the " laboring
men" to " burnt clubs" and '• shake oil the
dust of Mgyistn," and elect from their num
ber, sultable persons to serve their country
ns C-imeilmen. tlr did not wish-" - lo array
labor against capital," (not he, the modest
man.) But his appeals, weekly, to the pre
judices of classes, were calculated to invoke
broaches of the peace, and bring about a
conflict between labor and capital; although
pretending not to desire such a result. The
good sense displayed by the workingmen
of Columbia, in giving no heed to what
tins demagogue tot ht .ay—:tad in going to
the polls and rebliking into by depostting
their ballots, silently, for the nudi of their
choice., without any dictation—was sub
lime. tailing to lead the workingmen
then, he now turns it dip-ilap, and urges. t he
dear laboring Man to vote for the aris
tocrats—the nabobs of the party,--then
capital was " inert" and " labor
hail brains." Now, times have changed,
:Ind capital is active and labor is
inert. What cares this dinnagoglie for the
laboring class. lle his set tip a ticket which
he has no hopes of electing; but there is
money in it, if ho call koilvyrti,'ZlU It is ean
diciaLe.,4 into the belief that they can he
elected, if they are green enough to be bled
by him, and therein is contained the scent
of his blatent desire to get the rich nabobs
of the party on the ticket. The rank Ittpl
Tile of the party can go to thunder, so far as
he is concerned.
This adventurer gabbles weekly of the
wonderful influence of his Satanic Press,
in moulding, public opinion—to revolution
ize the polities of the• enemy (in his esti
mation,) there need only, be distributed a
few thousand eopiesof Iti , -"pres• amongst
the "Dutch," who he says are led hlindly
by Mr. Stevens.
What a wonderful man Drigham is,
judging from the influence of his Sattinie
Press upon the voters of Colutnoin. It
won Id. k••n brut tiba r thousand years to con
von the yeomanry of the Old Guard, to Ins
nefarious doctrines. I can tell him that
the laboring men of Columbia think for
themselves, and seek information when it is
desired—elsewhere than in his infamous
sheet. Ile hopes to take advantage of the
necessities of a large body of laboring men,
who are anlintunately at present out of em
ployment, by reason of the stopping of one of
the largestrollingmillsin this borough. lie
mocks them, and talks as though they had
no principles, but would, at his beck or nod,
vote for his men and train with them. It is
cruel thus to seduce them from their faith,
because of their ..misfortnne. I can tell
this conceited adventurer, that' no people
on the face of the earth have stood limner,
and truer to what they believed to he right,
under any mid all ciretunstances, than
the Welshmen. During the late - tearful
struggle to maintain the integrity of our
free institutions, those of LLCM who have
sought an. asylum hero, were as true to the
party that maintained the government in
Ms trials, as the needle is to the pole. It
ha's always been the practice of the leaders
of what they are pleased to term the Demo
cratic party, to curse and heap opprobrious
epithets upon a race they deem still more
degraded than themselves ; it is ;to com
fortable for the debauched to look down
upon the "nigger," who, their leader's
teach, is yet beneath them in social degra
dation.
This moral, festering leper, who has been
spewed upon this community by an out
raged people of an adjoining . State, in the
night, occupies a place in society, the depth
of which no being, however degraded and
brutalized, could descend to. Hence it is,
that all the senseless ravings, filtered
through his Satanic Press, weekly, are
avoided as the noisome odors of a cesspool.

Teachers' Institute.
Me. Ein - ron :—I noticed in your last is
sue, a paragraph announcing, that on the
•26th and 127th inst., al:lP:melt Institute of the
teachers of this county, will he held in the
liall of the Union Public: School building,
of this place. I ant glad, and every citizen
truly interested in that intellectual welfare
of our town, should be glad, that the claims
of Columbia have at last been recognized.
Our schools rank among the best, and the
principle on which they have been orgm
lied, and so far successfully advanced, lets
attracted the attention and and the appro
val of Superintendents, Directors and
Teachers in different parts of the State.
It is not my intention, however, to speak
of the merits of Columbia's Pont unit
Schools. I desire rather to excite in your
readers a greater interest in Common
Schools generally,and those who are in any
wise connected with them. They constitute
one of the institutions of which - .ve justly
are proud; for from them leave gone out the
influences and powers which have made us
a free, prosperous and intelligent nation.
Upon the instruments employed, de
pends the perfection of the workmanship.
Great as is the success which has attended
the operations of the Common School syst
em, that of the future is stilt greater. To
secure this, the improvement among the
leachers must know no diminution. That
the teachers are in earnes,:, is evident 14;
their efforts. Labor, however, must have
its reward. The parents must show that
they are interested in the improvement of
their children's minds. Otherwise, the
teacher will become indifferent, and in
stead of striving to develop intellectual
strength, will labor only for his scanty sala
ry. Oar citizens ought therefore to meet with
the teachers at their coming, Institute, and
learn what they are doing for our children,
how they do it, what they intend to do,
and how they intend to do it. Let, us aid
them by our presence, and where opportu
nity offers, by our words of advice or en
couragement. Let us prove to them that
we manic how responsible a duty they
aria required to perform, and that we at all
tittles stand ready to lend a helping 11:1:1,1.
