inches, and around the stem five inches,
tapering up to four inches. The leaf of
the smaller stalk measured three feet
wide. Some rhubarb, that.
BANK STREET.—Another week has
come and gone and not a move made in
reference to repairing Bank Street. It
seems to be, as yet, the - receptacle for all
kinds of filth. There are some persons
-who still continue to throw their garbage
in the alley. Who is it? If our devil,
with his ink pot, can catch them, we know
they will imagine a ray of sunshine never
struck them.

Rodenheiser, Jos. Long and Wm. Metz,

morrow, with a sermon by William S. H.
Keys, a talented and able divine of this
place. We regret that pr - essing business
matters will prevent our being present nt

is °pea the best school managers we know
of—a good linguist, a' ripe scholar and
clever gentleman. Under his care and
guidance he has brought the Lebanon Val
ley College up to a standard of excellence
to be envied by similar institutions.
A FIRST-CLASS CONFECTIONERY.—
Among the many large establishments de
voted to the retail trade its Columbia, we

establishment of Mr. Allen Richards. He
has lately fitted up an elegant store, with
handsomely furnished rooms attached, He
has a very fine assortment of foreign and
domestic fruits, nuts, cakes, candies, &e.
Ho will serve families and parties with
everything pertaining to either fruit or
confectionery, and we would advise our

TILE TOBACCO TRADE.—Few persons
have any idea of the extent of the tobacco
trade in Columbia. Among the largest es
tablishments is that of John Fendrich. He
employs about twenty hands, and yet can
not at times supply his • foreign demand.
He shipped, this week, over one hundred
thousand segars to his western customers
alone, and has yet some orders to fill.
Mr. Fendrich is very particular in his stock,
and the manufacturing of his segars ; he
will have the best quality, and when sold
it must be as represented. Hence the large
and increasig demand. Merchants in town
and county cannot do • better than to pur
chase of Mr. Fendrich, as he has the best
stock to select from. Go and see him ; you
will verify the truth of our statement.
COUNTY ITEIVS.—J. Oatilerou Muhlen
burg has been appointed Deputy Collector

years of age, a daugeter of George Lafferty,
dec'd, and step-child of Sohn Caffrey,
residing in East Earl township, Lancaster
county, accidently fell into a well fifty feet
deep and containing twenty feet of water.
She was rescued and drawn up, and , when
she had almost reached the top she again
fell to the bottom of the well, and was the
second time drawn to the top in safety.
The Examiner of Lancaster city, has the
authority of the Hon. Thaddeus Stevens
for stating that the tax on whisky will be

SIMPLE DIRECTIONS FOR PRESERVING
Pmts.—Ladies are often _anxious about
keeping furs free from moths during the
summer months. Some one advertises to
send the requisite information for $l.
Darkness is all that is necessary. The
"miller " that deposits the eggs from which
moths are hatched, only moves in light;
the moths themselves work in darkness.
Hang the furs in a dark closet and keep the
door shut ; keep it always dark, and you
can have no trouble. But, as closet doors
aro sometimes left open, the better way is
to enclose the articles loosely in a paper
box, put this in a pillow case, -or wrap
around with cloth,,and hang up in a dark
closet. Camphor, spices or perfumes, are of
no use. And do not take out the furs in
Juno or July to give them an " airing," for
even then cornett' the enemy, and it may be
that in fifteen minutes after exposure has
deposited a hundred eggs.
FATAL ACCIDENT.—john P. Schalck,
a h rakes m an on the PeunsylVania Railroad,
was killed on Tuesday last, about one mile
east of Mountville, in this county. An in
quest was held on the body by Samuel
Evans, Esq. From the evidence it appear
ed that the deceased left this place on en
gine No. "300," at 9.30 A. M. When near
the foot of the grade beyond Mountville, he
left the "tank" to go back to take charge of
his "brake," and is supposed to have fallen
between the cars, just at the time when the
locomotive commenced to ascend a grade
and suddenly stretched the couplings, which
made an opening between the bumpers.
The body was dragged about one hundred
yards by the cross pieces attached to tho
brakes, and mangled horirbly. The deceas
ed was about twenty-five years of age. He
resided with his father, Philiep Schalk, in
this place, until about nine mouths ago,
when he married and moved to Harrisburg.
In 1562 the deceased enlisted as a private in
Co. G, 2.11 Reg. Pa. Res., and joined his com
pany at Harrison's Landing. He was in
all the future battles participated in by the
Reserves. He was wounded at Fredricks- .
burg, and, we believe, taken iirisoner after
wards, and served several months in a rebel
prison. He also re-enlisted as a veteran in
the 191st Reg. Pa. Vols., and remained in
the army until the rebellion was crushed.
GliA NT AND COLFAX.—Mr. Albert D.
Richardson, author of the "Field, Dungeon
and Escape," " Beyond the Mississippi,"
&n„ is about publishing a complete history
of the life of General Grant. It will be the
best work of the kind yet issued, as it will
contain over twenty-five full-page,eugrav
ings, with an elegant Steel engraving of
Schuyler Colthx, and condensed sketch of
his life. Mr. Richardson is the only one
who has sought the truth. by labor, perse
verance and travel. He has left nothing
undone to getall such information as would
enable him to give not only a life, but a
real History of the Man. Ho has inter
woven with it a thousand reminiscences
and incidents connected with the General
and his position ; hundreds of mementoes
of remarkable places and events ; fac-simi-
lies of rare and valuable documents incluth
ing the unconditional-surrender and other
letters from Generals Grant, Buckner, Lee
and others, from the originals entrusted to
him, (and which no other work has or can
get,) on riosities connected with events of
the past ten years, and with General Grant,
never before given to the public; and, in
fact, a niass of such incidental and impor
tant matter as will make the book not only
exceedingly valuable and interesting now,
but tenfold more so incoming years. Had
we now such a history of Washington and Ms
times as this will be of Grant and his times,
it would be invaluable.
AN ELEGANT EsrABLISIMENT.--We
are always pleased to record enterprise,
whether it is in our town 'or in the neigh
boring cities, and though we have several
very large stores in ,Columbia, the one of
Atishier S. Moors, at Reading, wonld be
" town talk " for months. The proprietors,
during their sojourn in Europe in 1567, at
various places took drafts of stores, which,
upon their return, they compared and im
proved, and the result is the erection of the
neatest and most showy store in the State.
It is located at No. 533 Penn Square. The
front is principally glass, the windows
being oval and resting on a marble base,
handsomely ornamented with flowers fres
coed on glass, from an idea taken on the
Boulevard des Capucines, in Paris. Tho
cornices are very elegant;being principally
carvings in walnut. The counters and
shelvings aro of walnut, interlined with
ash, with a border of gilt. The ceiling is
white, with, sides of flowers of plaster of
Paris. Two large
,seven -light chandeliers
.are suspended front the coiling, which give
the store an effect to be seen and not de
scribed. The , rear -end is graced - with a
mirror costing $550; the carving upon the
frame is worth going to see. It is, in short,
an ornament to the city, and one which we
know Will - receive from its citizens the en
couragement it so richly deserves.' As John
-and Daniel are courteous, and men of taste,
we know that, all who call -once will' call
again. Our readers will do well by-reading
-their advertisement in to-day's paper, and
when they visit - Reading give_ them -it call.
.. A WORD IN SEASON.—:—When the
cholera last visited this country with ma
lignancy, it will be remembered that its
advent was prepared by an extremely wet
May and a hot June. The cradle of the
pestilence wos found in the organic decom
position induced by such unnatural condi
tions. Common caution would lead 113 to
look for the same consequences to follow
this year, and to prepare against them by
extraordinary vigilance and hygienic pre
cautions of all kinds. If the borough is not
to be cleansed by the corporate authorities,
it will not relieve every citizen from doing
his utmost to ward off the approaching
plague. Let every man see to it that his
own house, his own pavement, his own
sewers and gutters, are kept clean and
healthful, and let him, by ceaseless admo
nition and entreaty, urge on his neighbor
the same duty. Itis an obligation not only
of self-preservation, but of Immunity. The
alloys and by-streets need especially to be
looked after and kept clean.
NEWS OF NEIGUBORING COUNTIES.—
Mr. John Davidheiser, of Pottsgrove town
ship, Montgomery county, shot an Ameri
can eagle on the 25th of May, which tneasur
erl S feet across the wings and weighed 11
pounds. These noble birds aro becoming
scarce in this part of the country.
A ben belonging to Mr. Ruben Starr, of
Lewisberry, York county, recently hatched
a live chicken which has four legs.
The military of York are making prepara
tions to celebrate the coming Fourth of
July in a becoming manner. They pur
pose holding a pic-nic somewhere near the
borough, and to entertain the citizens with
a sham battle.
On Thursday of last week, a most heart
rending accident happened in the family of
Chas. Anderson, a colored man, living in
East Bradford, near Chester county. The
parents were both absent, leaving three
children aged respectively about 12 and 6
years, and 5 months. The eldest when
about to kindle a lire to cook dinner, lit the
fire and took a can of coal oil and com
menced pouring it on the blaze. The can
instantly exploded. Neighbors living near
hearing the explosion, ran in and found
the room all in a blaze—the infant trying
to crawl out of the fire. All three were
shockingly burned. The clothing all burned
of and parts 6f their bodies literally
charred. It is thought that at least one—
the infantcannot live. The scene when
the agonized mother was brought home
beggars description.
The cherry crop in parts of Chester coun
ty at least, we aro informed, is not very
promising. The blossoms were dashed otf
by the numerous rains.

READXNG, MAY 2107, 1868.—This is
to certify that my daughter has been
afflicted with vomiting and subject to
cramps in the stomach for several years.
A number of friends pronounced the case
one of severe Dyspepsia. Hearing of the
curative properties of your Life Drops I was
induced to try a few bottles of it, and to my
great satisfaction and to the relief of my
daughter, found it to be of great benefit in
this case, and after using it a short .time
she was entirely cured of the affliction. I
consider it the greatest medicine in exis
tence for the cure of the various complaints,
for which you recommend it.

Political and Outline Charts.
COLUMBIA, PA., Juno 10, ISGS
Mr. Editor :—I have just been examin
ing a series of political and outline charts
for school room use, published by Messrs.
Cowperthwait ek Co., Philadelphia, and left
at Mr. W. U. Hess' store by the gentleman
ly agent of this popular publishing house.
An examination of these soecimeus con
vince me that, in regard to mechanical exe
cution, they cannot be excelled. There is
that in their completeness, blending of
colors and beauty of finish, which makes
them very pleasing to the eye, and pecu
liarly adapted for school room use. I
recommend them to the notice of all teach
ers and school boards. EDUCATOR.

Axe now finished and In operation. Slxtymiles
of track have been laid tills spring, and the
work along the whole line between the Atlantic
and Pacific States is being pushed forward more
rapidly than ever before.. More than twenty
thousand men are employed, and_ it is not im
possible that tile entire track, from Omaha to
Sacramento, will be finished in 1860 Instead of
1870. The means provided are ample, and all
that energy, men and money can do to secure
the completion of this
GREAT NATIONAL WORK,
at the earliest possible day, will be done.
The UNION PACIFIC • RAILROAD COMPANY
receive: ,
I.—A GOVERNMENT GRANT of the right of way,
and all necessary timber and other materials
found along the line of Its operations.
GOVERNMENT GRANT of 12,800 acres of
Mad to the mile taken In alternate sections
on each side of Its road. This is en absolute
donation, and wild, be a source of large
revenue in the future.
M.—A GOVERNMENT GRANT of United States
Thirty-year Bonds, amounting to from
810,030 to $lB,OOO per mile according to the
difficulties to be surmounted onAhe various
sections to be built. The Government takes
a second mortgage as security, and it is ex
pected that not only the interest, but the
Principal amount may be paid in services
rendered by the Company in transporting
troops, mails, &c. The Interest is now much
more than paid in this way, besides securing
a great saving in time and money to the
Government.
IV.—A GOVERNMENT GRANT of the right to
issue its own FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS, to
aid in building the road, to the same amount
as the U. S. Bonds, issued for the same pur
pose, and no more, THE GOVERNMENT PERMITS
the Trustees for the First Mortgage Bond
holders to.clAliver tile Bonds to the Company
only as the road is completed, and after it
has been examined by United States Com
missioners and pronounced to be in all re
spects a first-class Railroad, laid with a
heavy T rail, and completely supplied with
' depots, stations, turnouts, car-shops, locomo
tives, cars, &c.
V.—A CAPITAL STOGY:. SUBSCRIPTION from the
stockholders, of which over Eight Million
Dollars have been paid in upon the work
already done, and which will be increased
as the wants of the Company require.
VI.—NET CASH EARNINGS on its Way Business,
that already amount to „moan TIIAN THE

and have coupons attached. They have thirty
years to run, and bear annual interest, payable
on the first days of January and July at the
Company's °thee in the City of New York, at
