County Committee to the district giving the
largest vote compared with that 0C156(3, has
been awarded to Mount Joy borough.
IN THE FAMILY.—A man in this town
who employs all his children in his busi
ness says he does it because if there is any
"knocking down," it a❑ goes in the fam
ily.
THE PAVEMENTS.—We notice that
workmen are employed repairing the pave
ments on Front street, North of Walnut.
We hope to see the work pushed forward in
other sections.
LOOK OUT FOR, FRA:U.D.----The leading
Copperheads of this place are making . op a
purse of money to be used to carry the elec
tion by fraud. Watch them ! They will
stoop to anything.
"THE Republican majority in this State cost
over ten dollars per hcact.—Brigham.
If Brigham will give us an idea of the
member of majorities, and how many heads
they had, we will semi the problem to the
New York World for solution.
DUCK'S.—Sportsmen are cow enjoying
a delightful season. We learn that ducks
are quite plentiful in the river. From morn
ing, till night we hear the sound of the
sportsman's gun, and suppose that " dead
ducks" is the result.
A NUISANCE.—We have noticed fires
in our streets for several evening past, made
by boys, of leaves front trees, trash, Sc.
This amusement is a dangerous one, and
we are led to enquire where the Chief Bur
gess keeps himself, that he has not inter
fered ?
HORSES STOLEN.—Two horses were
stolen from the stable of the Silver Spring
Ore Company - , on the evening of the 27th
inst., one a grey, the other a bay. A liberal

BtII
BASE BALL.—The Fairplavy Base Club, of this place, will visit Reading on
Thanksgiving day, for the purpose of play

pitable entertainment at the hands of the
" Keystoners."
DROWNIN“ ACCIDENT AT CIIICKIP
Mrs. Finn, an aged widow lady, residing
near Chickies, was drowned in the• canal
at that place, early on Tuesday morning
last. It is supposed that site accidentally
fell in whilst dipping water from the canal.
Her body was picked up by a boatman
some time after the accident.
BRIGHAM YOUNG.s itt tale
.ns:urance
business. Some people wonder how he
keeps up his Copperhead paper. It is easily
understood, when the tact is revealed that
the directors do not inspect his printing,
bills fur the Company. Ile eharges what
he pleases, and thus his Copperhead con
cern is kept afloat by the Company.
PRODUCE MARKEL—At town market
Wednesday, the following were the prices:
Butter, 40 ets. per lb.; potatoes, $1.25 per
bushel; eggs, 2S cts. per dozen ; lard, IS ets.
per lb.; hams, 20 ets., shoulders, 17 eta.,
sides 17 ets. per lb.; chickens, SO ets. to $l.OO
per pair; turkeys $1.25 to $1.50 apiece; cab
bage, G to S ets. per head ; bnekwheat,
ets. per lb. Market was well attended, and
the several articles named above sold readi
ly at annexed prices.
OUR TOWN.—No tuwn within our
knowledge will favorably compare with
Columbia in the way of improvements that
are constantly going forward. Scarcely a
day passes but the foundation of a new
building is made, and some new enterprise
projected. Our mechanics aro continually
kept busily employed, and no place offers
greater inducements to the industrious, up
right mechanic, or thorough-going business
111
ADVERTISEM ENTS. - The man who
does not read the advertisements in his
paper can never be said to be well inform
ed. The advertisements indicate not only
the business enterprise, but the enterprise
of the advertiser. When you see a man
who advertises liberally, you may be cer
tain of finding a good stock of goods in his
store, thbt he keeps up with the market,
and sells cheaper than those who do not ad
vertise. If you want good bargains,, al
ways patronize those who avail themselves
of the advantages afforded through the ad
vertising columns of their paper,
MONEY FOUND.— On the Mit inst., J.
D. Smith, Esq., of this place, lost a pocket
book, containing about $l3O. Ile inquired
in every direction, but could gam no tidings
of the same. At last he dropped into our
office and invested a dollar in advertising,
which had the desired result. The pocket
book and money were found by a young
man living in Marietta, and a few days ago
promptly returned to the owner. This is a
practical demonstration of the efficiency , of
printers ink. Advertising •pays, gentle
men ; if you don't believe us, ask Mr'
Smith.
A lit:AM:it CAUTION.—It ie an erro
neous notion that the public health only
needs looking after in summer time. Come
mon sense suggests that when worm weath
er admits of dwellings being thoroUghly
ventilated, there is really not as much
cause for disease front overcrowding as ex
ists duping the season upon which we are
now entering. In this season, out-door oc
cupations being interdicted, the dwellings
of the laboring classes aro more crowded
than usual ; and it cannot be disguised
that, during the cold weather, those epi
demic-contagious diseases prevail, particu
larly among children, which are rarely mot
with in the summer.
THE SEASON OF FIRES.—Now Haven
has directed its fire marshal to examine
every house, to see if the stoves and fur
naces are put up properly, in order to di
minish the fires. Our housekeepers
should exercise similar caution at this sea
son.
RAM3ITS.—We notice that many of our
boys are in the rabbit trade, and judging
from the number we daily see being
brought to town by them, they must be
meeting with success. Yesterday we saw
an oppossum in town, which bad been
caught by ono of the boys.
THE WINTER.—Some of the rural pa
pers are dismally prophesying that this
winter will be as hard as that of 1524, when
the ground froze on the twentieth of Octo
ber, and did not open again until the next
spring. Many crops of potatoes were lock
ed up in the ground and could not be dug,
except with a pickaxe or crowbar.
BELL-TOLLING.—The bells of our
churches are often tolled, in respect to the
dead. The propriety of bell-tolling on such
occasions is seriously questioned by not a
few of our citizens. It is one of the many
fashions that are entirely useless, and in
many instances a decided. annoyance, es
pecially to the sick or afflicted.
COPPERHEAD RASCALITY.—We direct
the attention of every honest man to the
rascality of Copperheads, as shown in our
editorial columns to-day. A league of pub
lic outragers have organized to use money
in the election on next Tuesday, and thus
corrupt the ballot-box. We warn the pub
lic against the diabolical schemes of these
political desperadoes. Let every Republi
can be at his post, and watch with an eagle's
eye every attempt at fraud.
SUDDEN DEATa.—With profound sor
row we chronicle the death of Eliza Davies,
wife of Dr. D. I. Bruner, one of our oldest
and most respected citizens, who died sud
de nly,last Sunday morning,in Philadelphia,
where she was visiting relatives. She was
an estimable lady, respected and beloved
by all who knew her. Her loss will be
deeply felt and mourned by her many rel
atives and friends in this community. Her
remains will be brought to this place for
interment.
THE NEW BRIDGE.—Upon inquiry at
the Engineer's ollice, we learn that the
bridge across the Susquehanna river at this
place, will, in ten days, be so far completed
as to admit of the passage or vehicles. In
two months time the entire structure wilt
be completed, except the rooting, whieh
will be done next Spring. It is quite prob
able that public travel across the bridge
will be denied until the river freezes up, for
what cause we know nut. When commu
nication with York county is fully opened,
it will be no little advantage to the busi
ness public.
THE POOR.—The lowering clouds and
chill winds proclaim that rude winter• is
approaching with rapid strides. Careful
and prudent housekeepers are preparing to
meet the invasion. Coal binns are being
replenished ; collars stocked, and every
thing which can relieve the dark and
dreary days will be put into requisition.
But there is a class which winter always
finds unprepared—the poor. At this sea
son it is meet that the charitably inclined
should devise means to ameliorate the con
dition of those who cannot help themselves.
There is a great and good work before
them, which should not be neglected.
ORDER OF AMERICAN AIRMAN ICS.—
The Slate Council of Pennsylvania, 0. U.
A. M., held its annual session in Philadel
phia, last week, State Councillor Snyder
presiding. The annual report states that
37 new subordinate Councils and six de
gree Counci s were organized in the State
during the year, making a total of 176 sub
ordinate bodies. The following officers for
the ensuing year were installed S.
Gco. W. Jenkins, of No. 30; S. V. U., John
Quigg, of No. 27 ; S. C. S., John I'.

Krider, of No. 41; Inductor, P. A. jibe, of
No. 30 ; Examiner, WM. M. Shultz, of No.
13; Protector, John Server, of No. 52 ; Rep
resonlative to National Council, Henry
Lomas, of No. 13.
UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT.--Col- Mil
ton Weldler, of the lillll of Sprenger tk,
Weld ler, brewers, of this place, met with a
very nil fort unote accident, yesterday. Ho
was ("living into the yard at P. Reisinger's
Lamb Ti vern, and in crossing the gutter
one of Ihe horses stopped, and apparently
beraine unnianagable, when the Colonel,
fearing an accident, jumped out to take the
horse by the head, and in doing so broke
his left leg. It is supposed be slipped on
one of the cobble-stones in the gutter, or
alighted with great three on the one leg.
Ile was taken into Mr. Reisinger's, where
his leg . was set, and where he still remains.
It was 0 very had fracture—the bones pro
truding through the flesh. The accident is
very much regretted liy his many friends
in this conimunit3-.
YORK COUNTY ITEms.— ,, We take the
following from the York Democrat:
The Moravian Church, in North Duke
street, was dedicated to the service or God,
on Sunday last. The services were exceed
ingly interesting, solemn and impressive.
On Monday night, the 19th inst., about 12
o'clock, the house of Mr. Jacob Markey,
near Raffensparger's store, in Washington
township, was entered by burglars and
robbed of some forty eullars in money and
a few articles of clothing of trilling value.
We understand that capitalists are about
tusking arrangements to start a furnace in
or near the borough, as soon as a suitable
location can be obtained. An effort is being
made to procure the lot near the Poor House,
which would be au eligible situation for
that purpose.
The saloon of George Seager in East Main
street, was entered ou last Thursday night
by some prowling night thief and robbed
of about ten dollars of change that had been
left in the drawer. The party who com
mitted the deed first went to Mr. Stager's
house, in South Duke street, and got the
key of the saloon out of his pantaloons'
pocket.
The general agent of the Pacific and At
lantic Telegraph Company visited Mechan
icsburg last week., to make arrangements to
establish an (axe of the Co in party there.
The intention is to connect with the line
running on the State road from Harrisburg ,
to Gettysburg, at Shepherdstown.
ti VISIT TO T Fink:
COMP -VS 11 0 OMS. —On Saturday evening
lust we were, by invitation, ushered into the
splendid hull of the Columbia Fire Com
pany. We found it spacious, and furnish
ed in a very superior manner. The floor is
carpeted with the best Brussels, :old the
furniture, consisting of four green velvet
sofas, largo marble-slab centre-table,
officer's desks and 'chairs, made of solid
walnut, all evidence superior taste in their
selection and finish. The hall iv lighted
by a magnificent chandelier, from the cen
tre of the room, put up by Air. Hiram Wil
son, the efficient gas-litter, of this borough.
The furniture, we were informed, cost $9OO.
Beside what we have named, the walls are
decorated with paintings and engravings,
which :old no little to appearance. One
Portrait hanging over the President's chair
was pointed out to us by our obliging at
tendant and official, as his "gradfather."
The portrait was truly a work of art, and
to us looked like Washington, and al though
we did not deny our informant, we could
not believe that such a good-looking man
was the "grandfather" of our homely
spokesman. The whole was a joke, wo
guess—u hard ono on Washington. After
surveying the magnificence of the hall, and
being the welcome guest of our brethren of
the " Columbia," we took another peep at
their steam-engine. It is very handsome,
and an ornament to our town,whilelts keep
ing reflects credit upon all concerned. Wo
repaired from our inspecting tour highly
pleased, and think that others can not fail
to mark the enterprise and liberal spirit of
the Company when on a similar visit. We
learn the rooms will be open to visitors
during the present week.
PARADE IN MARIETTA.—The Repub
licans of Marietta will have a grand torch
lightparade th is (Saturday) eveningin which
the Tanners Club of Lancaster city, accom
panied by the City Cornet Band, will take
part. Let there be a grand rally.
HORSE AND VEltlCfai STOLEN.--A
horse was a few nights ago stolen from Mr.
Thompson, residing near Pleasant Grove,
this county. FrOm Pleasant Grove tho
thief or thieves proceeded to Texas, this
county, on the soul° night, and stole
buggy and ,set of harness from .Tohn Cum
mings.
MEmottr.—The colored people of
Washington have erected tho first monu
ment to Thaddeus Stevens in the shape of a
handsome schoolhouse. No tribute could
have boon more appropriate nor more
grateful to the venerable statesman, who
al ways deemed his labors in behalf of the
common-school system of Pennsylvania to
be the crown of his life.
"So far as tax-payers are concerned, it
will wake but little difference whether Sey
mour or Grant is placed at the otner end
of the; avenue."—Brigham Young, fr.
What, have you ceased to lie about taxa
tion, high-prices, bankruptcy, &c? If you
keep on at this rate, yon will be kicked out
the back-door or Tammany ! For the sake
of the Constitution—for the sake of aloe
inanisni, and your own boner, stop and
think
SHOT IN THE FOOT.—Harrit , on Worth,
of Colerain township, Lancaster county,
was shot in the foot one day lust week. Ile
was Carrying his gun upon his shoulder,
when it accidently slipped out of his hand,
tell over his shoulder to the ground behind
him, the concussion exploding the charge,
which entered and lacerated the inside of
his foot, near the great toe. The escape
from serious injury was very narrow.
ACCIDENT.—John Rohr, SOU of John
Rohr, Sr., Mennonite Minister, residing iu
Man licitn township, two miles North of the
city limits, on the Liti.z turnpike, met on
Saturday last with quite a severe accident.
He was driving a four horse team, and in
attentpdng to get off of the saddle horse,
his foot became fastened in the stirrup and
was thrown to the ground and dragged
for some distance. The providential stop
ping of the team saved his life. The young
loan sustained some severe injuries, one of
his knees being badly hurt.—lntelligearer.
PARADE OF TANNERS.—On Saturday
evening, the Columbia Tanners' Club, head
ed by the Cornet Band, paraded our streets,
presenting an imposing appea ranee. Dur
ing the parade, some Copperhead sneak
cried tire, which produced a general alarm,
and called forth the different tire com
panies. The alarm proved false, and was
sounded to interfere with the parade. The
alarm did not have the desired effect, as
the Tanners performed their programme
in spite of Democratic rascality.
DEMOCRATIC 0 IIf . RAC. Two Color
ed Persons Shot in Middletown for Cheering
for Grant.—We au•e informed that during
the Republican celebration on Saturday
evening in ;Middletown, two colored per
sons were shot in the vicinity of the depot,
by Democratic ruffians, for no other crime
than cheering for Grant and Colthx. The
wounds of one will probably prove fatal.
It. appears they had got among a crowd of
Democrats congregated in that vicinity,
emulous of achieving the notoriety gained
by the Democracy of this city, and follow
ing their exanlple. Our informant was not
able le give us Maher particulars of this
act of barbarity, but we trust the offenders
may meet with the punishment they de
serve.—Stale Guard.
GLOItIOUS SUNSET.—How few th2re
are who really enjoy the gorgeous sunsets
of the autumn. This is the season when
they are seen in perfection, and the sight
to those who are fortunate enough to have
a west window, with unobstructed view,
is one that tills the mind with the most
pleasing emotions. No painter can rival
the magnificent tints of gold and purple in
the clouds, as the sun gradually sinks to
rest, behind them. Who can look upon such
a scene and remain unmoved? And yet
we :u•e often too unmindful of all that me
Creator has done to render the world agree
able and pleasant. Thu sight of the beauti
ful autumn sunsets ought to raise tie soul
out of the slough of grinding commerce to
the comtemplation of scenes that money
cannot purchase. IVlatt a pity it is that so
many inen endowed with " eyes, can see
nothing :above them! nothing good, mass
ive, glorious, soul-puritying or inspiring.
“TH E vote in Pennsylvania on Tuesday

When we remember that the author of

Nolte enrricism. "—The infallible
Brigham appears to take delight in search
ing out every little typographical error that
creeps into our columns, nod in this way
cowardly replies to our advocacy of Repub
lican principles. We are not disposed to
play the critic, but feel that we must tlght
the devil with his own weapons. For this
occasion we direct attention to the following
hentenve :
"Next Met,.lay the American people will Le
called upon to elloose an adrninisti anon for the
next four years, ,te."-13rIgliant.
The above is from the scholarly pen of one
who is, or would be, an habitual critic. AVe
only ask Brigham, and his class of public
sneaks, to excuse our presumption when
we pronounce the sentence quoted a hove,
not only incorrect, but unintelligent. Who
ever heard of a'people electing an adminis
tration? The people "choose" a President,
if you please.
DEATH or• Junta: MunnAr.—lt is our
unpleasant duty this morning to record the
demise of Judge Wll.. F. Murray, long,
favorably and prominently known in this
community. His death was as sudden as
it was unexpected, and hits cast a deep
gloom over friends and relati via; with
whom he has for nanny years been inti
mately associated. On Monday he was ap
parently enjoying excellent health, t u rd re
tired in his usual good spirits. On Tuesday
morn ing he was stricken with a paralytic
stroke, and up to the hoar of his sours final
flight, which occurred at 11 o'clock, utter
ed but two or three words. Tito decowged
was born in Middletown, this county, and
was fifty-five years of age lust :May. He
moved ft om thence to this city, where he
has resided for the last eighteen years, and
been identified with its growth and itn
provement, taking the la U in every pub
lic enterprise. He held several positions of
public trust and honor, and tilled at the
time the ollice of Associate Judge of the
county. His death will be universally re
gretted by all who knew him, while Har
risburg has lost one of her best • citizens.—

. "WIIO ARE THE TRAITORS ?"—Under
this bead Brigham Young, Jr., publishes
the entire electoral ticket of the Democratic
party, and urges everybody to vote for it.
That's something like it, at last. Tell the
truth and shame the Devil. We . enjoy
your blunders, Young George, the verdant,
hugely.
"FORWARD then—the whole line! Let there
be no cowardice—no skulking!—young Brigham.
Stop thief! How about your own cour
age? Do you remember that a little man
whom you characterized as an "oyster
man," made you swallow your threats of
violence upon Republican processions?
And that you, like a coward, that you are
retracted everything you had said, mid as
a whipped dog, whined out apology after
apology. "-Let there be no cowardice,"
coming from the lips of one who is a public
coward, is significant, indeed!

A NEW ODD FELLOWS' FLAG.—The
H. W. Grand Lodge of the United States, I.
0. of 0. F., at their recent session, adopted
a flag to be used on all public occasions.
The flag is to be of white material, either

crooks are to be added. The Grand Lodge
of the United States has ordered a national
flag, which will be borne for the first time
in the grand procession in Philadelphia, in

JUST THE PLACE.-I.f there is any
thing an honest farmer likes it is plain deal
ing. It is his own way of doing things,
and he will never do business it' lie knows
it, with any one who is even disposed to
take advantage of him. When he is deal
ing in corn and wheat, he isn't afraid of any
man's getting ahead of hits, but when he
goes to town to buy things with which he is
less familiar, then he wants first of all an
honest man to deal with. All visitors to
Oak Hall, are struck with the " Instructions

a IMPORTANT ADVICE TO VOTERS !"
" On the third day of November the voters
of Columbia will be called upon to discharge
a sacred duly they owe to themselves.
There are two parties in the contest, both
rallying around the Flag of their Country.
One of these parties is doomed to defeat, aad
with that defeat there will lie a great de
pressihn of spirits, superinducing a loss of
appetite and an entire derangement of the
digestive organs, or animal functions. The
unfortunate in the contest aforesaid, will
find a W hol eso e panacea in lloolland's
German Bitters or Tonic that will speedily
restore the lone of their stomachs and ena
ble them to resume business, These prep--
rat ions are for sale by Druggists and dealers
in Medicines everywhere.
GET Stint) EOE WlNTER.—Persons
who wish to be neatly and comfortably
"shod," should go to I. 0. Bruner, where
may be found the very best assortment of
Boots and Shoes in Columbia. They are

NEW VoaK, .July Ist, MS— Dear
Sir.—ln your paper or last week you or one
of your correspondents say that Dr. Drake
is not the originator of the celebrated Plan
tation Bitters, and that they were manu
factured and sold by one Pedro Martalc, an
old Spaniard, in the Island of St. Thomas,
over forty years ago, as every old sea captain
can testily. Now sir, I can certify to the
above as being true, tin• I have followed the
sea for over forty years, moat of the
time doing business with the West Indies.
These same Bitters dillbrently put up and
named. were brought to my notice on toy
first trip to the Island of St. Croix fora car
go of ruin, and for years and years after,
my ship's stores were never without them.
I always supplied my flintily and many of
iny neighbors with them, and eau truly say
a better Bitters and Tonic, is not made in
all the world•
Yours, truly,
CAPT. II ENttr Xyz.

sented which need only to be understood to
prove acceptable to the public, such as the IN
