THE Fiusx.—The First of April was a
busy day. Everybody was settling up old
scores, and the town was quite lively. 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

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."

Tun Reading Room will be open on or
about April Ist. The rules for its govern
ment are republished elsewhere by request

thing done to make the place pleasant.
The association will keep a file of about 30

M. to 10 P. M. papers will be placed in the
room immediately after the arrival of each

citizen lends a helping hand to this praise
worthy enterprise.

flattering examination before the honorable
gentlemen of the bar. We wish him suc

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.

rates for houses any longer.

Ist of April eras soon thereafter asmossible.
Any person young or old, can have access
to the rooms. 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'. I\l., adjourned to meet in the Second
Street Hall, on the 2.1 Tuesday of April, at
71 P. M., to elect otli.ters for the next six
moon tbs.
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

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

loving, and exemplary brother.

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

one arm mutilated. The accident happen

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. Linaweaver and Bruner, the
limb was amputated six inches below-the .
knee. At last accounts the sufferer, though
in great pain was doing as well as could be
expected.
ANOTHER. INVOICE.—A. R. Hougendobler
has received a second invoice of spring
goods and is better than ever prepared to
accommodate the public to every descrip
tion of boots and shoes, including gaiters,
slippers, ladies misses and children's shoes
of all colors. The largest stock of infants'

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

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

at Downingtown has been accepted and
awarded to Messrs. Bachman h Dehuff, and
for the lumber to Mr. John Pearl and Mr.

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.

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.
