of this place, entered upon his duties as Su

most valuable officer.

ly and best conducted pic-nie of the season,
in this vicinity, was held in Ifeise',s woods,

DOCTRESS HANNATI BOSLEY ABROAD.
—Doctress Bosley, of this place, is now rus
ticating at Long Branch, N. J. We find the
following in the Long Branch News, of Sat
urday :
"Hannah Bosley, Corn Doetress, from
Columbia, Lancaster Co., Pa., is at the
Branch, on Clark street, and guarantees to
remove Corns and Bunions without pain.
Come, ye sore-toed sufferers, and get re
lief."
Go in, Morris, and get your :wiling feet
relieved ; "Prosser" can do it.
COUNTY COMMITTEE MEETING.—The
Republican County Committee met in the
Orphans' Court Room, an Monday, the 19th
inst. After the chairman, Martin S. Fry,
stated the object of the meeting, Hon. B.
Billingfelt offered several rules supple
mentary to those which now govern the
party at the primary elections. They are
intended to guard against fraudulent
voting, and stuffing, the ballot-boxes at the
primary elections. The discussion elicited,
took a wide and desultory range. A mem
ber from Columbia stated in his remarks
tharhe knew of one man who has received
pay from, and promised to vote and use his
influence for three of the candidates for
Sheriff. Yes, this fellow "can be seen"
anytime, and we can lay our hand on his
shoulder in five minutes. After referring
said rules for final action to the committee,
which meets on Monday, the 2Gth inst.,
"Honest Andy," of bonegal,offeroci the fol
lowing interrogatories which were to he
answered by the various candidates for As
sembly, viz:
Are you in favor of reducing the compen
sation of members?
Are you in favor of abolishing the Legis
lative Record?
Are you in favor of reducing the nnmber
of officers now created by the Legislature?
Our .41.ady wanted to know whether the
last interrogatory included the twenty
seven pastors and folderi.
lie was answered by the author of the
slime that it did.
A. green member, fro r m a new district, of
fered an additional interrogatory to the
effect that every candidate for the Legisla
ture pledge his sacred honor not to charge
more mileage than he would be entitled to
if going in,a direct line to Harrisburg from
his residence. This, together with tne pre
vious ones, were laid over for action on
next Monday.
In the meantime the "rules," ate., were
ordered to be published in the daily and
weekly Republican papers of the county,
until next Monday.
The subject is a grave one to every lover
of the welfare of the Republican party. It
behooves them, therefore , to give the mat
ter their attention. If the ascendency of
the party is to continua in this county, an
honest primary election may determine
that tact.
THE FIRST LOCOMOTWE.—A few days
since the first locomotive was placed upon the
track of the Wilmington and Reading Rail
road at Coatesville, Pa. It is used for haul
ing ties, iron , &c., for the construction of
the road, which is rapidly approaching to
wards completion.
CAUTION TO Boys.—Our exchange
papers make record of the death of many
boys while bathing. It is not to be won
dered at when the carelessness, and even
recklessness of many boys, is daily ob
serveable. Lads who cannot swim,venture
into deep water, and are often attended
only by those as helpless as themselves.
Parents should caution their boys of the
dangers of bathing.
' ADAMS EXPRESS.—Expressman Zieg
ler should by all means, it not for his own
convenience, for the credit of the borough,
request from the Adams Express Company
a suitable wagon for the conveyance and
delivery of - goods passing through the agen
cy for this place. It is not at all enter
prising-like to see a small boy wheeling a
huge trunk, several boxes, parcels, ac., on
a wheelbarrow through the streets, for
patrons of the company, it looks "slow."
GRAND CONCERT.—The new Organ for
the Evangelical Lutheran Church at Eliza
bethtown, Pa., will be opened by a Grand

B. F. Mullen and V. J. Wight, of the Co
lumbia 2Eolian Club will lend their assist
ance on the occasion.

PAY YOutt DOG TAX.—War will be
waged against all dogs upon which the re
quired tax has not been paid, after The first
day of August next. A pound is now being
constructed for the confinement of "delin
quent curs," in which, however, they will
only be retained a short time before killing.
Jacob is determined to enforce the ordi
nance, so step up to the captain's office, on
South Second street, No. 216 and pay your
share, all ye owners of dogs, else abide by
the law.
LAFAYETTE COLLEGE.—We have re
ceived a programme of the Commencement
Exercises of this institution, situated at
Easton, Pennsylvania, which will begin on
Sunday, July 25, when the Baccalaureate
will be preached by Prof. Saml. J. Wilson,
and with various exercieses extend till
Wednesday evening. On Tuesday a poem
will be read before the Annual meeting by
James P. Boyd, Esq., of the Philadelphia
Press, and au oration will be delivered be
fore the literary societies by ex-Governor
James Pollock. Arrangements for excur
sion tickets have been made with the dif
ferent Railroad companies.
SUMMER SICKNESS.—.II. is the custom
to attribute at least one-half the sickness,
especially in cities, at this season of. the
year, to eating cucumbers. Wo do not be-
Hove cucumbers aro less healthful than any
other garden vegetable, if properly prepar
ed, and eaten in moderation. Few persons
are ignorant of the pernicious influence of
sulphdric, nitric. and muriatic acids upon
the human organs of digestion and the en
tire alimentary canal; and yet it is declar
ed upon good authority, that much of the
vinegar in Commerce, or liquid sold us vin
egar, is made by the use of these concen
trated acids, at a cost of not more than ono
or two cents a gallon. It is quite likely,
therefore, that adulterated vinegar is the
fertile cause of so much sickness in the
summer season. The corn vinegar manu
factured in this place by filmes d Myers,is
strictly pure.
A YEAR OF PLENTY.—From all parts
of the country the cheering intelligence con
tinues to come announcing the abundance
of the earth's productions. The wheat crop
just harvested is all that could be desired,
and the yield is pronounced to be far above
the average. In the South the cotton prom
ises to furnish more bales than has been
produced since the commencement of the
war. In the West. excepting a portion of
Illinois, the corn stands firm, and gives as
surance of an uncommon harvest. In our
own section all kinds of grain have done
exceedingly well, and potatoes, the farmers
say, are too plenty to pay. The peach and
plum crop is also unusually large. The
chances tire that the apple yield in Pennsyl
vania this fall will be the largest it has
known for a long stretch of years. Should
this hold good all over the country, the
poor man may once again have a barrel of
apples in his cellar. We hsve plenty, now
let us have peace.
Tres COMING ECLIPSE.—On the sevens h
of August will occur one of those interest
ing phenomena which silently but eloquent
ly communicate to mankind some very in
structive ideas as well as facts. It is noth
ing less than a total eclipse of the sun, com
mencing about half-past five o'clock in the
afternoomund continuing nearly two hours.
Should the weather be clear, it will be
visible over the greater part of North
America.
Everywhere throughout the United
States, the lovers of science are making
preparations for the occurrence. The Gov
arnment has taken measures to secure ac
curate observation of the eclipse. Many
close observers will be on band at various
points on our continent. There will be del
egations from abroad, as well as numerous
private individuals at home, watching the
astronomical transaction. The naked eye,
tho smoked glass, the opera glass, and the
telescope, will be employed on the interest
ing occasion.
SPIDER IN A MANS HEAD—NARROW
ESCAPE PROM A HORRIBLE DEATIr.—An
intelligent traveler, named Jonas Wells,
from Ritchie county, West Virginia, called
at our office yesterday, and stated that ho
had just been delivered from a certain
death—that a spider which entered his head
and was preying upon the brain had been
extricated a few minutes before. The cir
cumstances are these: On Tuesday night
last, Mr. Wells found himself in the coun
try, and wishing to "turn in" for the night,
laid down upon some straw and was soon
wrapped in the arms of morpheus. During
his slumber, it is supposed, the spider was
out late at night and coming in mistook the
stranger's ear for his web and accordingly
crept in, unconscious to the sleeping,
weary man. On awaking in the morning,
Mr. W. experienced pain in his head, but
did not concern himself much about it,
thinking it would soon pass away. He suf
fered the most excruciating pain, the ef
fects of which almost made him blind, and
he concluded to wend his way to town and
seek medical aid to relieve his misery.
He sought n drug store, and entering re
quested the clerk to drop from a feather a
small quantity of turpentine into his ear.
No sooner had the fluid reached the spot
than a clever sized spider bopped out and
was captured by the druggist. He says he
could distinctly hear and feel something
working or gnawing as If at his brain, from
which ho suffered the most intense pain.
No doubt had the insect remained in his
head longer, it would have reached the
brain and death would certainly have been
tho result. Be is now entirely relieved.
Mr. W. though in destitute circumstances,
made so by the late war,is an honest and re
liable man, having some very complimen
tary recommendations from men of note in
Virginia and other States.
NUMEROUS building improvements are
going on:
STATED MEETIyG OF 00IINOIL.—A
stated meeting of Council was held last Fri
day evening. Present--W. W. Upp, Presi
dent, and Messrs. Crane, Detwiler,Hippey,
Shreiner, and Supplee. The minutes of
June 18th were read and approved.
The Road Committee reported Market
street graded, and the alley adjoining the
property of Tinny Skeen on Fourth street
repaired. They presented a communica
tion. from the Boroughßegulator relative to
the grade of Fifth street, between Locust
and Walnut,and to changes in the pavement
grade on Front street in front of the new
freight depot of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company.
On motion of Mr. Detwiler, an unbroken
ascending grade from Locust to Walnut
street, as recommended by the Regulator,
was adopted.
On motion of Mr. Supplee, the matter of
changing the grade in front of the freight
depot, was referred to the Road and Pave
ment Cononitttees.
The President reported that the County
Commissioners had agreed to pay their
portion of the damages ($1,005.05) asked for
by Mr. Samuel B. Heise, iu the compromise
claim presented by him at the last stated
meeting of Council.
On motion of Mr. Detwiler, Mr. Heise's
claim was approved, and an order - directed
to be drawn in his favor for $503.03.
In the matter of calling a jury to decide
upon the damage inflicted upon other par
ties by the opening of streets, be reported
that application must be made at once to
the Court for a jury, which would then be
appointed at the August term.
The Finance Committee reported *4189.09
received by the Treasurer since last stated
meeting, and a balance in the Treasury of
*6,706.63.
They reported further that the balance on
hand and the amounts to be collected from
taxes, rents, ;will not exceed $9OOO,
whilst the amounts appropriated to com
plete the new Market house, pay damages,
put in fire plugs, repair the Town frall,pave
market square, and pay interest and con
tingent expenses will exceed that sum. It
is therefore necessary at the present time
for the Council to refrain from taking any
action that will increase the liabilities of the
borough.
The Market Committee reported too little
progress made upon the now market house
during the past month to warrant an esti
mate being made. A contract was made
with D. J. Wallings, (he being the lowest
bidder) for the painting and penciling of the
Town Hall and steeple, with two coats of
paint, at $144.50, which work is nearly com
pleted. They ulso engaged Mr. Wallings to
bronze the ball and vane at $l5, and paint
and letter the balance of the signs required
for the market house, at eighty cents a
sign.
The following circular was prepared and
widely distributed among tho fanners of
York county:
"The Columbia Bridge Company have reduced
the toll on the Columbia Bridge, in favor of the
Farmers and Butchers of York county, attend
ing the Columbia Market, to one-half their Itxed
rates, on (Market Days) Tuesday, Thursday and
Saturday of each week. In behalf of the citi
zens of Columbia, we cordially invite the
farmers and all others, of York county, having
marketable produce for sale, to avail themselves
of our market, as no town in the interior of the
State ailords or commands higher prices for the
product of the garden and farm, than the mar
ket of Colombia borough. Our accommodations
are ample, having recently erected a large and
commodious Market Ilouse,wi th all the modern
improvements, giving greater comfort to the
vendor than any other Market Douse in the
State. There are yet a few stalls remaining
vacant inside, and those wishing. stalls inside,
and under cover should apply at once. Tables
outside can be obtained at ally time by calling
on the Market Committee or S. S. Detwiler. at
First National Bank. We are also pleased to
add that the merchants of our town are always
supplied with a superior stock of Goods winch
they guarantee to sell at prices as low as call be
obtained at any other point."
The following communication was re
ceived from the Chief Burgess:
TO THE TOWN COUNCIL OF 'RUE DOROUraI. OF
COLUXBIA.
GeniiCIUCIL :—Complaints have been made to me
that the Chestnut Hill Iron Ore Company is ob
structing Union Street with a large pile of stones
and has fenced up the way to Shawnee Run
where it crosses the Lancaster Turnpike, ,
thereby preventing persons tromwatering their
cattle, and getting water therefrom. I saw the
grievances complained of, but I am unable to
decide upon the actioul ought to tette, es I am
ignorant of the relative rights of the Borough
and the C. H. I. 0. Co.. at the points referred to.
I would therefore, request ycu to examine into
these matters and give me such information as
will enable me to properly discharge ray duty.

BARN' BUIIISED.—The barn of Mr.
Isaac Stauffer, who resides near the Gap
this county, was entirely destroyed by fire,
Saturday night last. The tire broke out
about eleven o'clock, and all efforts to ex
tinguish it, were unavailing. All the crops
in the barn were burned, also a valuable
horse. It is not known whether the fire
originated•accidentially, or was the work of
an incendiary.
A GOOD WATOn.—Persons in want of
a good watch, either American or foreign,
gold or silver, would do well to consult
Chas. P. Shreiner, jeweler, No: 13: Front

LANCASTER CITY AND COUNTY EIRE
.T.N.sunAscu ComrANY.—John W. Bruner,
of this place, is the authorized agent of this
co mpa ny,an d we can ass u re our readers that
it is one of the best institutions of the kind
in the State. and is controlled by some of
our best men. Hon. Thomas E. Franklin

storekeepers, business men, and others to
consult - Mr. Bruner in reference to having

are dangerous.
" Goo D, B ETTER, BEST."--Messrs.
Wanamaker Li; Brown early in their busi
ness career demonstrated the possibility of
supplying the people with good clothing at
low prices. And every year they have ad
ded to the excellence of their clothing and
subtracted from the usual charges. This
good work still goes on nt Oak Hall, the
garments growing "good, better, best,"
and the prices "low, lower, lowest."
CERTAIN Insurance agents have been
endeavoring to give out the impression that
"The American Life Insurance Company of
Philadelphia," having a paid in cash capi
tal, retains all its profits, and does not share
them with its policy holders. The Com
pany, once and for all, brand that a lie. 1 - 1
insures at the lowest rates consistent with
safety, rates lower than those of many other
companies, and on every plan that is ap
proved and used by first class companies,
and its largo dividend of 50 per cent. is avail
able to nil who aro insured in it on the mu
tual plan.
BEAR IN OUR. STREETS.—Our citizens
were •mused lately by a free exhibition
of a bear in our streets. Bruin was muz
zled and led by his owner with a rope. He
was trained to walk erect, turn summer
saults and perform numerous other "feats,"
to the music of a tenor drum. After the
exhibition a collection was made, when his
bearship faced the audience, on all sides,
erect as a soldier, and made his manners by
numerous bows. He drinks beer with a
gusto astonishing to behold.
THE PRESBYTERIAN GRIMM—At a
meeting of the Presbyterian Church, of this
place, held on Monday evening last, it was
unanimously resolved to erect a suitable
parsonage, at a cost not exceeding $6,000, on
the lot of ground on the corner of Fourth
and Walnut streets, donated for that pur
pose by Mr- Samuel 33. Eloise ; and it was
also agreed that another meeting should
beheld on next Monday evening to_eOn
sider the propriety of extending, enlarging
and otherwise improving their church
building, for the accomodation of any ad
ditional membership, as at present the
pews are all taken.
WITH Dyspeptics everything is wrong.
Food does not digest; sleep does not refresh ;
wine does not cheer; smiles do not
gladden; music does not charm, nor can
any other joy enter the breast of the miser
able dyspeptic. You must get rid of it, or
it will become seated and confirmed, and
life will be a burden and existence a curse.
Plantation Bitters will do away with all
this. New life, strength mid energy will
take possession of you. The damask will
again bloom upon your cheek, and the lus
ter in your eye wili again be as bright as in
your healthiest, happiest and most joyous
days.
Magnolia Water.—Superior to the best
imported German Cologne, and sold at half

CHOLERA MORRUS—READ TLLIS.-oE
borne, Green Co., 0., May 27, ISG9.—Dr. S.
B. Hartman & Co—Gents: One week ago
to-day, I was taken with an attack of chol
era morbus ; the vomiting and purging was
most excessive, and accompanied by in
tolerable cramps. My family became
alarmed, and sent for Dr, —, but ho
was not at home, and the nearest
other physician being three miles etr, it was
concluded to procure a bottle of your Itlish
ler's Herb Bittere. My wife gave our boy
cue dollar, and bidding him " make haste,"
despatched him to the nearest druggist,
Messrs. Kauffman & Bros. ties returned,
and according to the directions on the bottle
I took a win eglassful immediately, sad re
pented the dose every fifteen minutes for
three-quarters of an hour, and astonishing
as it may seem, it stopped all discharges
and cramps like magic. You cannot be
lieve how grateful I feel to you for this po

For Register of Wills.
Col. Milton Weidler is out for Register of
Wills, and he deserves the suffrages of
every loyal voter in the County. He en
tered the service a private in Co. B, Ist Pa.
Reserves in April '6l, and served two years
in the ranks, when he was promoted to Ist
Lieut., which position he held until the
muster•(3ut of the Division, when he was
promoted to Major of the 191st Penn'a Vet.
Vols., 'coth , pbsed of the veterans of the old
Reserves. Ho was wounded while loading
his Regiment in a night charge in front of
Petersburg, and was taken prisoner ut the
battle of Weldon R. R., Aug. 19th, 1831.
During his imprisonment he was confined
at Salisbury, Danville, and Libby. Ho was
released in the Spring of '65, and on rejoin
ing his regiment was promoted to Lieut.
Col., which position he held until the mus
ter out of his regiment, July 3d, 1865. Re
participated, (except while a prisoner) in
all the battles of the Army of the Potomac,
commencing with the great seven days'
fight in front of Richmond, and ending with
the surrender of Leo at Appomatox Court
Rouse. ltdaw
Txu cheapest insurance is that which
enables one to secure the gr.iatest amount
for the least outlay, and to select this
from amongst the various terms and condi
tions, offered by different companies, it is
necessary to consider, firstly, the amount of
premium required, and secondly, the man
ner in which premiums are to be paid. The
amount of premium should be suchas to
meet all future contingencies, and yet not
more than sullicientto effect this object.
Experience having shown that the rates
formerly required by all mutual companies
were much higher than necessary for the
purpose, some of them adopted what is
known as the "note" or "half-noto sys
tem." By this system the policy holder is
required to pay larger amounts of money
in after years, and yet if he is compelled by
misfortune, or otherwise to stop the regular
payments even of any additional assess
ment, he is denied the advantage of a naid
up policy as a means of securing the
amounts already paid in.'
The Delaware Mutual Life Insurance
Company, having quit the use of the note
system, has reduced the rates twenty-five
to thirty per cent. lower than those of other
mutual companies, making these rates all
cash, while the company is entirely and
thoroughly mutual in all its relations, thus
affording insurance on the lowest terms
consistent with entire security, at the same
time that a careful selection of risks, and
the most thorough economy in managing
its business, is steadily developing a very
light proportion of losses, which will tend
still lurther to increase its dividends, and
thus reduce the actual cost of insurance.
Our friend Bassett, is the agent of this
vigorous and thriving Company, and will
always be found reudy to afford any further
information which may be desired.
"Cour" I3uxtGEss.- - -The Burgess and
members of Town Council persist in pre
fixing Chief to that office. Who aro his as
sistants?
APPOINTED U. S. STOREKEEPER.—Mr.
Albert Gray, formerly of this place, has
been appointed 11. S. Revenue Storekeeper
in the Fourth Pennsylvania District, by
the Secretary of the Treasury, at Washing
ton, and he is now on ditty at Philadelphia.,
LARCENY.—The house • of John Fry
meyer, in upper Leacock twp., this county,
was entered during the absence of the fam
ily a few weeks ago, and it lot of gold, silver
and notes—amount not recollected—and
bonds of the amount of altie were taken.
Promissory notes on Mr. Bomberger io the
amount of $l5O were also taken.
LARGE CABBAGE LEAF.—It appears
they raise large cabbage in Mambeim. Mr.
0. D. Klinefelter brought from that place to
Columbia, a few (lays since, a cabbage leaf
which measured, full twenty-eight inches
long, and twenty-five inches wide. This
large cabbage may be seen in the garden of
Mr. John Deyer, hardware merchant, iu
the borough of Munheitn.
MAN AS A LOCOMOTIV.E.A busy
man as a locomotive, and life a track.
Every night he drives into "the house" and
and stops. Every morning he is tired up
anew, and away he goes. Switching off in
one direction and then in another. In this
routine of business he should not forget that
a neat paper collar adds greatly to his ap
pearance. In view of this fact,we would ad
vise our friends to go to Breneman and buy
a box of "Boz," the neatest and most dura
ble collar in the rnarke,t at only twenty-live
cents a box.
BEATEN TO BEATII.—The Harrisburg
Telegraph states that, on -the 14th inst., a

influence of liquor visited the White House,
a tavern on the river, about seven miles be
low Harrisburg, and insulted. the women
employed there. They reported the fact to
Samuel Neibling, the proprietor of the es
tablishment, who immediately commenced
- to chastise Berger. Berger then run out of
the house, and was pursued by Niobling on
to the grounds of a Mr. .Bomberger, adjoin
ing. Our informant states that there Nieb
ling beat and kicked Berger, breaking
several of his ribs, and inflicting other in
juries. from which the latter died on Satur
day. Niebling has disappeared from the
neighborhood, and no clue has as yet been
found to his whereabouts.

continued to improve, as I have been doing for
some time under the treatment of the new med

here. I commenced the use of DODD'S
VINE without anybody advising me to it. When
I began with It I could only walk frbm my bed
to the chair. My trouble has been extreme pain
in the head, and has lusted over three years.
All the medicine I have heretofore taken has
failed to give any relief. lam now able to go up
and down stairs, and daily improving. Peon
shier the NERVINE the best medicine I ever
found, and shall continue its use, for I am con
fident of entire recovery. I have taken only
three bottles, and would not be without it on any
account. Very truly, Alps. I. S. .hrtrrE,
