Old accounts were looked up, adjusted and the change put in circulation. So far we have heard of no failures, end from the generally happy faces we met, we presume that " all is well." SALE OF MARKET STasus.—On Saturday last the stands in the new market house were sold, for the ensuing year, at public oht-cry. Messrs. 11. G. Minich &Son pur chased stalls, Nos. 1, :2, and 3, at ;:.'2O a stall, the rest of the butcher stands bringing the saute price. The farmers stands were sold St $l3 apiece. Tux storm of Sunday was very severe, and prevailed along the entire Atlantic coact. Many of the telegraph %vire: were prtstrated, making it impossible to receive tidings of any disasters that may have oc curred. This is the vernal equinox, and the elemental commotion is ascribed to the sun's entering the first point of Aries. THE Herald, the SPY aunt the York True Democrat together with all the progressive, enterprising citizens of Columbia are in fa vor of the new Town Hall. The croakers oppose it, and especially that clue of croak ers who see a little self interest in the mat ter. Besides being a benefit to trade, to market people, to the Masonic association, it will confer a public and inestimable good upon the whole community. THE M. E. Church, of this place, which has been tastefully and beautifully retitled, will he re-dedicated, to the w'irship of Al- Goa, on Sunday, April 10th ev..l. Walker Jackson, of Philadelphia, will preach in the morninr at 10 o'clock and Rev. J. 1-I. A Iday, of Philadelphia, in the evening at 71 o'clock. In the afternoon will be held n re-union service, at which the large and flourishing Sabbath school will be present and a number or former pastors. Tun proposed new Town is being thoroughly canvassed. Everybody seems to be in favor of it, except a few wbo think . it should be erected by private enterprise. The expenditure will not increase the rate of taxation, but, in all probability, in the course of a few years will be the means of reducing it. Let every mechanic, ever la boring man, every tenant, every property holder, who desire to increase the value of his property, every young man and every voter, no matter what may be his condition in life, turn out on Saturday, 9th prox. and vote for" Lira, energy and improvement." —Herald.

Hacker, hardware merchant at Litiz, met his death in a sad manner. While watching men engaged in tearing down an old frame building, a heavy log, termed by carpenters the side plate, fell on him, injuring him to such an extent that he died in about half an hour.

A LARGE Boo.—There has been left at this otticea hen's egg measuring,Sl inches in circumference one way and 6t the other and weighing 3 oz. It is the largest we have seen, and in every respect a perfect egg. It was purchased by Rob't. Hamilton in a lot from the basket of John Berger of Manor. If our citizens want big eggs let them get them wbere,"Bob" gets his—out of Berger's basket. TrrE FIRST RAFT.—The first raft of the season lauded at our shores on Tuesday afternoon piloted by Harry Seiple formerly of Washington, b. e.,lately of Williamsport. Mr. Seiple. we learn is one of the most skillful pilots on the river. At the present stage of water, surely his adventure was one of peril and difficulty. Mr. Selple's family and furniture accompanied the raft and have been taken to Washington, where Mr. Seiple intends to reside. BnxErs.—Hiram Aiken, a brakeman on the Penna. R. R. had several of his toes crushed by the flange of a car wheel pass ing over them on last Saturday morning. Mt.

Membership in the associa tion costs one dollar a year. Two dollars from every subscriber will greatly oblige us. 1.17.1,113 ER PROSPECTS.—Tho Wrightsville Scar says " Croakers have been busily en gaged in circulating reports that the supply of lumber and timber would be scant this spring owing to the scarcity of snow in the lumbering districts of our State. Recent information from the headquarters of the Susquehanna lead us to believe that the supply will be as large as usual. The snows that have have visited us during this month have extended to that section of the State, affording the timber men ample opportuni ties for getting their iogs to the streams. The Itufbnan's Jowl nal, of recent date, pub 'kited at Clearfield, says: " Since our last issue, we had several light falls of snow and in consequence the roads have been in good hauling condition. Much of the timber which still remained in the forests has bean conveyed to the streams, and the probabil ity now is that a pretty full supply will reach the markets in th,z spring." Pursuant :o adjournment, the " Colum bia. Reading Room and Library Associa tion" met in the Town Hall on Tuesday evening, the :ilk 1.1 ult.. S. S. Detwiler, Presi dent, in the chair. The minutes of the last meeting being read and adopted, Geo. Young, jr., Chairman of the Committee on Subscriptions, reported the gratifying fact that the Committee, with very little labor, had secured subscriptions to the amount of S2SO, and that he was con tident '.f.:600 could be raised, as those who would be likely to sub subscribe $I each, had not been approached. Report accepted and Com in ittee continued On motion ofJos. Mifflin— Resolved, That another rule (rule 8) be incorporated into the ret(ulations of the as sociation, to read : " Fifteen members shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. On motion of Geo. Young, jr.— Resolved, That the President and Secre tary be a committee to get up 2O circulars, to he sent to the different editors and pub- lisheis, requesting that, their publications be sent free to the Association, and in case of refusal to state the lowest rates at which they will be furnished. After an animated discussion as to the best method of furnishing the flail, the Association odjou r nett to the Hall on Second Street, to continue the discussion. At 91 I'.

THE NEW OUGAN.—Tho magnificent or gan built by Max Oestrich of Pottsville for the Methodist ehurli of this place is now put up and ready for use. The tune of the organ is full and round, and the instrument is pronounced by competent judges to be very superior. A full description of stops and the range or the organ will convey a more accurate idea of the instrument. It contains two manuals and a pedal of two octaves.

M., held at their 'Wigwam on Monday, March 14, IS7O, the following preamble and resolutions were passed in zelation to the death of Charles Ginter.

Knomm, THE NEW TOWN HALL.—The only oppo sition to the new Town Hall will come from those who think the project will add to the debt, or from those who consult self interest. The debt cry is en old one, and was the rallying cry of the opposition to the new Market House. Yet facts prove that the investment was a profitable ono all around. The income of the stalls pays a liberal per coifing° on the entire invest ment. The new Hall with stores and offices un der it, with Masonic rooms and council chamber over it w ill according to the most careful estimates of practical business men yield a liberal or at least a reasonable per centage. Why may not the borough make the investment, and secure all the advanta ges, not only for the corporation but also for the public. THE PEOPLE need a Public Hall, the Borough can build a bet ter one than any private individual or com pany. We have assurance that it will be done in the most economical way, and with a design to yield the largest return. Why any ono should oppose such an enter prise is to us a mystery. He might as well commit Harikari (?) at once. If this were:! measure to expend the public funds to en rich any private in.lividual, opposition to it would be a virtue. People should lay asido selfish motives in this matter, and yield to the sentiment that we should consult the . interests of the whoic community. The hall should be large, it should be central, it should be built with a view to revenue; all these objects will be secured by the plans Proposed. usristnss CIrANOES.—We giro below all changes in places of business, already heard from, which have taken place, or will take place next month. Our readers will please inform us of any change not mentioned here : Jos.

DEAD BODY FM:MD.—The dead body of a colored citizen ,supposed to be George Elam; lin was found and picked up yesterday morning by the first local freight eastward, near Groom's Mills on the Penn's. R. R. The body when found was lying between the tracks, the neck, part of the face and one arm mutilated. The accident happen ed during the night and was not witnessed by any one. Deputy Coroner Fraley held an inquest and the jury rendered a verdict of . ccidental death by being run over by the cars. PERSONAL.—From the Savannah Repub lican of the 23d we learn that our fellow townsman Dr. Howard S. Case arrived at that city on the 22nd, per steamer " Wyo ming" from Philadelphia. The weather was mild and more akin to May than "stormy March." In the morning Pluto had everything his own way, causing a general use of umbrellas, overcoats and heavy boots. In the afternoon Old Sol shone forth, but his rays were soon hid by heavy clouds, which went drifting across the heavens, and the weather-wise prog nosticated " more rain," but they were mis taken, and the sunset betokened a fair to morrow. ACCLDENT.—On Saturday last, John H. Heistaud, of Duncannon, Perry county, Pa., sou of John M. Heistand, of East Don egal twp., while attempting to got on the Lancaster city mail train at noon, opposite the Columbia Bridge, fell and the cars pass ed over his left ankle, mutilating the limb in a shocking manner. The unfortunate man was taken to a house in the neighbor hood, and medical assistance called in. After a brief examination by Dr. Craig, as sisted by Drs.

Also an elegant assortment arena' boys and youth's hats and caps of the latest styles at prices that defy competion. White corsetts at 50 cents. Hosiery and notions at panic prices. The public will find it a profitable to give him a call at corner of Third and Cherry streets, Columbia, Pa. THE ARTS.—We had the pleasure a few days ago of examining very fine portraits of several of our citizens, executed by Mrs. Julia F. Gilman, the artist, of Philadelphia. These portraits are universally praised, and the likeness in each care strikingly correct. Mrs. Gillman's success in crayon portraiture has excited quite an interest. Crayon portraiture is not new. It posses ses advantage over oil paintings as the lights and shades fall more fully under the control of the artist's taste. The portraits of Mr. .L• Mrs. Dr, 'Hinkle, Mr. & Mrs. J. G. Hess, and Mr. & Mrs. M. M. Strickler have fully established nil that is claimed for this branch of the arts, as well as the artist's B. F. MULLEN, S. B. CLErrER, Committee THE TEEHNOLOHIST.—This is a new monthly especially devoted to engineering manufacturing and building. The second number, now before us contains a very line full page engraving, on tinted paper giving details of the East River Bridge Cession, and other illustrations. It has large pages und,is full of entertaining matter which will interest the mechanic and the general read er. Published by the American News Co., N.

It con tains some good hits at prominent men and fashionable follies, is well printed, and well illustrated. It ought to be a success. 10 cents a week. Punchinello Company New York. FLORAL BEAUTIES.-A visit to the' para dise" of Columbia affords one of the most refreshing sights of the season. The Co lumbia Nursery is now in "full blast," and Mr. Purple the energrtic and obliging pro prietor is prepared to fill all orders of his numerous customers. Too large stock of Arborvitae, Norway Spruce, Irish Junipers Flowering Shrubbery, Shade Trees and Small fruit affords every inducements to those wishing to make selections. One of the hot houses presents a most lovely ap- pearance• The roses and verbenias aro in full bloom, imparting a fragrance and ex hibiting a beauty rarely equaled; Gerane ums, Petumas, lielitropes, Daisies and bas ket plants are on hand in great variety and profusion. In fact Mr Purple can please the most fastidious. We advise our readers to give him au immediate call and make early selections from his stock. , . AWARD OF CONTRACT.—We are pleased to learn that the proposal ffr the dressed ma terial for "Aston Terrace Hotel Company" at Downingtown has been accepted and awarded to Messrs. Bachman h Dehuff, and for the lumber to Mr. John Pearl and Mr. Geo. Bogle, all of this place. This Hotel when erected will be one of the largest and perhaps most commodious in the State. The main building is three hunderd feet long, with three wings extending back eighty-five feet. The situation is very pleasant, overlooking one of the most beau tiful and romantic valleys in the State, the landscape extending from seven to ten miles. The bid of Bachman C Dehuff will cover about ten thousand dollars worth of fur nished material. The lumber required in its construction will amount to about five hundred thousand feet, till of which will come from the lumber market here. We are pleased that this contract has been awarded to Cul umbiaus, as it gives employ ment to a large number of hands, and is an indication of the busy tittle.; coining. AT a special meeting of the Psi Omega Fraternity held March _9th 1870. the follow ing resolutions were unanimously adopted: Wintreuxs. It has pleased the Almighty Ruler of Heaven and Earth, who holds in his hands the life of every one of us, in his infite voodness and mercy to remove from our midst, thus curly in life our °teemed friend and brother, D. Harvey Smith. W. G. W. therefore be it. Resolvedt, That in the death of our broth er our fraternity has lost a truly valuable and devoted member and we are thus sud cal led upon to mourn the loss of our whom we have ever cLerished the most tender ibeltngs of respect ; his manly virtues, gentlemanly deprotment, and magnanimity of mind and heart now and a most worthy place in our affections. Resolved, That we deeply sympathise with the affected family in their said bereave ment, knowing truly .he irreparable loss they have sustained in the death of so noble and affectionate a sort and broth..r ; and we can only thus in the midst of their sorrow and affliction recommend them to seek con solation from Him who cloth teach Himself in all things, and who alone can dry the mourner's tear and soothe the troubled and wounded spirit. Resolved, That as a token of our esteem and appreciation of the worth ofour late friend and brother, the members of our Fraternity wear the badge of mourning for the space of thirty days. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be transmitted to the fatuity of thedeceased and also a copy be submitted to the Colum bia SPY and the Franklin Repository, of Chumbersburg, for publication. A DEBATING CLUB in Worcester lately discussed the important question, "wheth er a rooster's knowledge of daybreak is the result of observation or instinct." This same debating club, if in Columbia, might discuss the question `•whether the opposition to the new town Hall is based on principal or self-interest?" SUBSCRIZEMS of the Columbia. Spy are requested to pay their annual subscription. W. K. SOUREIER. H. MIFFLIN. Committee J. A. CASE. What Oar Neighbors Think of Us =1 Our neighbors across the river, aro fully determined to erect a new town hall in Co. lumbia. They have appointed a Commit tee to report upon the subject, and the site is already selected, and the work will go on. The place designated is the south west corner of Locust and Third streets—a most eligible and desiralbe situation, and the costs to the Borough are not to exceed S-10- 000. Whatever more may be necessary to complete the enterprise, will, no doubt, be raised by private contributions, as the price of a hall such as would satisfy the Co lumbians, would, certainly, far exceed that amount. It is proposed that legislation be obtained to enable the borough to issue bonds for the amount named provided two thirds of the citizens favor the project. There will be no doubt that it will, thus, be favored, as the people of Columbia are en terprising and do not stop at a few pennies in the work of home improvements. We trust our good citizens of York will take inspiration front this prompt and decisive action of our neighbors across the river and • devise means, at once for the construction of a hall in our borough,an enterprise which we have already stated as not only desira ble but pi•olitable.—Truc Donocrat. CoLumaia, March 31 Editor Spy :—A person should never write or speak (except interrogatively) upon subjects of which he knows nothing ; but I find your correspondent "Argus" violating this plain proposition in his article of Sat urday la4t, on the subject of the Council procuring instruments " especially" for the Borough Regular. Now, if Argus knows anything an the subject, he ought to know that if the instruments were proctued by Council, at the expense of the borough, they would not be for the benefit of the Regulator,but ofthe borough, whose streets &c., would be laid out and graded by the aid of those instruments; and he should also know that it is not at all a common thing for engineers now-a-days to own in struments, they being procured by the cities, boroughs, railroad companies, ac., thatrequi re their use. Land surveyors work for individuals, and must, famish their own instruments, but engineers generally work for corporations, which are able to furnish the implements. Argus might have spared his wit about Mountville, Drytown and the "full-fledged" engineer, as I presume the whole profession will be willing that he wears all the (goose) feathers himself. Mu. EDITOR :—I see by the proceedings of the Reading Room and Library Associa tion that the rooms are to be open every day in th, week Sunday excepted, and as one interested in every movement under taken in the community I would ask . why the exception of Sunday in the opening of this public reading room. In many of the larger cities the public reading rooms and libraries are kept open every day and even ing during the week, and are felt to be a source of great good to the masses both in tellectually and morally. lam aware that there is a disposition among some people to exclude everything from the Sabbath, but that pertaining direct to the church, but 1 fear it is a principle both wrong in concep tion and in its results. It is right to do well as the Sabbath day and everything calculated to benefit the intellectual and moral faculties of man, whether organized inside or outside the church may be safely tolerated ou this day. We have among us many young men and some older ones, who to use a common expression "do not know what to do with themselves on Sundays"-and are found loafing on the cor ners—if not in worse places—who if this reading room was opened might spend their leisure Sunday moments there in reading, thus improving their minds if not their mo ral natures. -IRA will say the objector, " these men ought to go to church on the Sabbath." Granted that they ought, but we know they don't and common sense would teach us that if we can get theta to a reading room when they can certainly do no harm and may do good, we are acting the part of wise men. I am not one of those who because people Will trot go to church are in favor of depriving then, of every other rational means of enjoyment or an provement. If we can not get the people to till our clurches, let us furnish a place where they may be prevailed upon to go, and which may at least be the means of keeping them from Hotels, Beer Saloons, Gambling Hells and the like. it is to be hoped that those having this matter in charge will consider carefully this matter and that the rule may read as it should, the rooms will be open every day and evening in the week. CITIZEN. [The object of the Reading Room is to ex tend moral and intellectual advantages to the public during the week, and not to sup plant the offices of the church on Sunday. It may do good to have the reading rooms of larger cities open on Sundays, (though that is a disputed question) but in a town like Columbia, where everybody knows almost everybody else, it would be better for neighbors and citizens to greet the way faring with a christian "good-morning" and invite t hem to join in thoservices of the sam - tuary.—ED.] Bm.glary and Robbery. Bold burglary and robbery were perpe trated at the residence of Mrs. Rogers, widow of the late 1)r. .James Rogers, on the west side of North Duke street, be tween Orange and Chestnut. Three men were concerned in the affair. The en trance to the house was effected through a door on the lower story of the back part of the building, the burglars poring out a panel of the door through which a hand was inserted and the key turned. After gaining admittance into this part of the house, there was no further impediment to their progress—the other doors being unbolted—and they passed into the sitting room, and from there up stairs into Mrs. Roger's sleeping . room, which is immedi ately over the sitting room. The first in timation that Mrs. R. had that rob bers were in her house was from seeing a light in her room. As soon as the fellows found they were discovered, one of them, whose face was masked with ti handker chief, went to the bed where Mrs. R. was lying, and holding a pistol to her face, threatened that he would shoot her if she gave an alarm. Two other men were also in this room for a portion of the time, though one of them was sent down stairs for some purpose, probably to stand guard An old secretary which was standing in the room was opened by the robbers, and its contents examined. Here about a hundred dollars in bank notes, a patent lever silver watch, certificates of deposits in Bair & Shenk's banking house, several promissory notes, and several United States government bonds of the value of $5OO each, were found and taken. The balance of the contents of the secretary were strewn over the floor. One of the men demanded a thousand dollars, but the old lady stated that she had not that amount of money in her posession. While the robbers were at work in the room of Mrs. It. one of the men held one of his hands over her eyes. After getting through with the search for valuables, the fellows tied Mrs. R.'s feet together with a piece of muslin and left. As soon as the old lady could extricate herself she went to the front part of the house and cried "murder.'' The door out of which the panel was taken contains a number of stains of blood showing that the person operating the brace injured one of his hands while at work. A. sleeve button, a pocket knife and a brace and bit—the latter having been used in taking out the panel of the door— were left by the burglars. Several blades of the knife are covered with putty and paint. Mrs. B. states that the clothes of one of the men in the room were soiled with paint. Two young men named Henry Mimes and Frank Le Barren were arrested, charged with being implicated in the crime. Both were taken before the May or, who committed them to prison for a further hearing in default of 52,000 bail each. Both the accused are well known in this city.—Exprese.
