We have beard him several tunes before, but, we think, his voice was never in drier tone or better con dition than on this occasion. His recite tio•es were grandly rendered, Lulal his hu morous selections were received with shouts of laughter. Prof. hart is not only a thorough elocutionist and recitationist but a capizal imitator and mimic. ••Tae Battle," one of Schiller's griu t le.• poems, which concluded the evening's entertain ment, could not have been excelled in its rendition.

TEE TEN DOLLAR LICENSE _Tax.—The bill introduced by Mr. Dickey providing for the repeal of the odious ten dollar li cense tax was referred to a committee, and by them approved and incorporated into the general revenue law. It is now under the control of Schenck's committee, but the delay occasioned in the report of the general law, will undoubtedly delay the passage of this amendment. In order to hasten it Mr.. Dickey proposes to call it out of committee and if possible pass it. The injustice of the act is apparent to every onellion. R. J. Haldeman, member •of Congress from the Dauphin district, has replied to a letter of Joseph niftier, secreta ry of the Mechanicsburg Hall and Market 'Company, of Cumberland county, in regard to the produce dealers' tax. Mr. Haldeman thinks that a section will be incorporated in he new tax bill, repealing the section in so :far as it relates to farmers selling their own 'produce. He concludes his letter as lollows: " I certainly think it should be so, for us a 'class the farmers are taxed dirictly or in 'directly in everything that they consume, •and are recipients of protection or bounty in no wise at the hands of the general gov ernment. They constitute 'about 48 per 'cent. of the producers oUthe country, and produce about one-half of the gross annual income of the nation ; yet, in all the legisla tion of-Congress; whether for banks; rail ways, tariff or internal revenue, I do not know that their interests are considered. Therefore, now,when their produce receives 'an unprecedentedly small return in the Market, it strikes me as especially unjust that they should be subjected to this license Itax, which Is as erroneous in principle as it is oppressive An practice."

THERE was considerable excitement on Tuesday evening. Some object had attract ed a crowd of ladies and gentlemen, and while trying to discover what the real won der was, somebody said "Bachenbeitner." The gentlemen immediately lelt for his store where the very best bargains can be had. Ttiz Public School examinations closed yesterday. The result is most gratifying to teachers, pupils and parents. The prog ress of the examinations was watched with considerable interest and shows that the subject is receiving more and more the atten tion of our citizens. In another column will be found a brief notice of the exercises on Thursday. ON Wednesday evening wo observed a number of young men making zig zag mo tions down Locust street. They bad evi dently been imbibing too freely, and prob ably indulging in gentle gesticulations as one of them had his left eye in deep mourn ing, plain visible in the light of the gas. Had these young men spent the evening in the Reading Room, the trouble would not have occurred, and they would have been saved the disgrace. INCIMASE or RAFTS.—The Harrisburg Patriot says two thousand two hundred timber rafts have been put in the Susque hanna and its tributaries thisseason,against eighteen hundred last season. Computing each raft at twelve hundred dollars (which is about their average worth,) the aggregate value of the whole number is two million, six hundred and forty thousand dollars. From this some idea can be formed of the immense forests in the northern part of the State, and the extent of the lumber. NOT ONE *— Notwithstant'ing that all the colored people of the city, and numbers from the rural districts, gave all of yester day to jubilation over their enfranchise ment, not a single case of drunki•nneS9 or disorderly conduct or a colored man was reported at the Mayor's office last night or this morning. That certainly speaks Innen in their favor as orderly and luny-abiding 4•/11Z1 , 11q. —La neastor Express. We suggest for the sake of the orderly and law-abiding citizens of Columbia, that next Tuesday's demonstrations lie inaugu rated by the early arrest of Grier by con stable McGinnis, and his safe lodgement in the Town Hell leek-up. SEVERAL complaints have come to us lately,concerning that abominable nuisance —corner lounging. A lady informs us that she had quite a difficulty recently to pats through a crowd of those fellows, who had congregated on the pavement, and that the. language they used on the occasion was anything but polite. This is only one in stance in many, that roach our ears of la dies being discommoded and insulted by being frequently compelled to overhear ob scene and profane remarks, made by these idlers whilst passirg along our streets. We hope for the good of our community, a stop will bq put to the vile practice. PRESENTATIoN.—On Thursday morning last the butchers, Messrs. H. a Minich Son, H. Wolfe tk Son, Conrad Yeager, and John Yeager, of avenue A, presented a po liceman's badge to officer Barrack, also market master, as a memento of their high esteem towards him for his prticiency in in the discharge of his duties as market master. The badge is in the shape of a star and composed of solid silver, with his in itials, "R. 8.," surrounded with a wreath neatly engraved In the center; in all it is a splendid badge, showing a taste for neat ness on the part of those who had the se lecting of it. Mr. Barrack, being a iltitidul officer and always at his post of duty, well deserves to wear an ornament of that kind and merits the praise of every one. Pit.tcuks.—The Wilmington Commercia/ says we have just been shown a private let ter trout a fruit grower, of Moorton, in Kent county, dated April 18th, from which we make the following extract : " The fruit prospect was never better. The blossoms are strong and healthy and every tree loaded, and not injured as yet. I am acquainted with the whole breadth of the State between Smyran and Camden, the prospect is the same through the whole of it. As to apples, the prospect is just as good, also for pears and cherries. Strawberry vines look very tine. Should tne weather continue warm the yield will be heavy. I am planting out ten acres ; blackberry vines are being extensively planted this spring. Of peach trees set I think I do not exaggerate when I say that one-third a, many acres are added this year as thdre were set altogether before 1860. I have set 60 acres, near Kenton, and sold every tree I had, and coeld sell any number more." CooL.—On last Saturday morning Dr. Craig, while engaged in his usual tour ot• professional visits, bitched his horse to a post in Poplar street. During his absence from his horse and carriage, a gentleman (?) who afterwards was compelled to give his name as James Smith, and who had be• canto tired of walking, deliberately jumped in the carriage and drov off. Upon learn ing that the horse had been driven otl • by a stranger, Dr. Craig started in pursuit, having first telegraphed in different direc tions. Constable McGinnis got upon the ; :rail of the thief near Marietta, and had t races of him at almost every house along t he road. People working in their gardens h ad observed the stranger driving a fine hi wee anti carriage, anti made a note of it. A; lout half an hour before reaching Eliza be thtown, Constable Flowers telegrap'ied the arrest of the thief. The prisoner was bro ught to this place, and had a hearing bef ore S. Evans, Esq. Ile attemptel to justify the driving away of the horse by ple ailing that be had been hired by another par ty. When asked where he came from, ho replied " that it was sufileient for them to itnow that lie was front home. He was col limited in default of $lOOO bail to await trio SE:clam:or: or HiMjs.—At eleven o'clock on Wod.nesday, Himes was brought before Court for sentence. Judge Long ad dressed him stating the enormity of his crime, and pointing out the singular man ner in which his agency in it had been conclusively shown by the finding of the sleeve-button which had dropped from his wrist into the bed as ho was taking Mrs. Rogers out of it. The Court, he said, could find no mitigating circumstances in his case, and had determined to give hint the full penalty allowed by the law ; he was thou sentenced to pay a flue of one hundred dollars, to restore the property taken, and to be imprisoned in the County Prison for the period of ten years. Slimes listened to the Judge's speech with the ut most composure, and received the sentence without flinching or betraying any emo tion. Leßarrou's sentence was postponed to await the result of his counsel's applica tion for a new trial; none had been made in behalf of Nimes. Hugh" Cosgrove for burglarionsly enter ing-Rothartners 'Saloon, at the depot,was sentenced to pay'sl fine and to undergo an imprisonment in the County Sail, for two years and five months.

A MusicAL FA:V.II.I%—We had the pleas ure recently of attending a soiree for which Prof. Schmeid, and hi-: family furnished the music. They were an Orcheatra in them selves. We were very 11l uch pleased with the excellent perfonnances of the Professor and his boys. His otchestrat eumb tnation displays admirable musical taste and cul ture, and the harmony, and skillful execu tion of the most difficult selections evince careful training and much practice. Tho orchestra has become a universal favorite. The Professor plays the seeoucl Violin, and his three sons, the first Violin, Base Viol and B flat Cornet respectively. The or chestra is sometimes augmented by the ad dition of several other instruments. Per sons desiring musk: for parties, balls, f: c., should secure the services of Schmeid's or chestra. Tm; Sromt.—A heavy thunder storm passed over this section of the country last Thursday evening. The rain continued for nearly one hour. During the storm the 11g-htnlng' struck tilt , Lutlart... Wrightsville; and soon enveloped the build in flames. The tire was confined to the roof for some time, and the citizens were ena bled to carry the furniture out oldie church including the organ itc•,. The vigilant engine of Columbia was out promptly and was over in time to save adjoining property, and ex, inguish the flames of the burning building. Nothing is saved except the walls (brick,) and these may be sprung or otherwise damaged. The loss is $lOOO anti no insurance. After the lire, the vigie boys were "ova- Led" by the grateful people of Wrightsville, and an excellent supper served up. During the absence of the vigie, the Col- Tots Sum:amt.—A shoit stroll around town convinced us that Col utnbia will be more beautiffa this summer than over. The streets everywhere are in most excellent condition, and can be kept so if our citizens wish it. Our front yards are being bean titled, houses repainted and trees planted. A number of yards have been laid out am I beautified in a most tasteful manner, and being almost tilled with choice flowers front Purple's nursery, present a very attractive appearance. The trees along the different streets are donning their summer foliage, the birds are last returning and filling the air with their cheerful songs. Straw hats and linen coats, ladies' •sundowns," and out door sports resumed, all give evidence of the near ap proach of summer. We noticed several parties of Columbians enjoying the fascin ating game of croquet. Fishing excursions and pie-me parties will be the next on the program tne of saintlier pleasures. ONE of the most interesting end success ful school examinations it has has ever been our pleasure to witness came off to day at our Pu bile 11 igh School. Upon en tering the building our ears were greet. d with the sounds of song and melody, pro ceeeding, as we found upon entering the high school room, from a bevy el young lady scholars, with organ :u•comp;u:icmcnt by their very ellieieut teacher, Mass Lyle. What a delightful exercise music is in a school room—how it soothes the minds and rubs ofT the rough edges of the tempers of the scholars, vial: s I hom feel more kindly towards each other in the friendly strife of mind against mind, at least so it seemed to us to-day, for outwith,tr tlding the struggle was long, continued and severe, we fade to see even an unkind or tint plea:quit look upon the countenance of a single pupil. The range of the examination this after noon embraced Grammar, higher Arithme tic, Astronomy, and Geometry, To show how anxious the teachers were to be impart tat towards all the scholars, we will state that the various questions pro pounded were written out on slips of paper which were placed into a book with one end of each slip sticking out, each scholar then drew a slip to solve the problem upon which the pupil must either sueeed or ftit. It is greatly to the c , edit of all the pupils that, notwithstanding many of the questions were of the most difficult to Lai ibund to their books, we did not notice a single fail ure. The exercises closed with singing, by three voices, "Soul bast thou gleamed welt to -day?" This beautiful composition WILS exquisitely rendered. If we have judged by the triumphant and joyful count enances of the boys and girls, they at least felt ulna a rich harvest had been gathered There was a goodly number of holy vie itors present but the Fatther4, where were they? and the school Directors where were hey? of the ss'hole Board we saw but three members. These examinations have been going on, in all the different school rooms, forseyeral days until all have now been examined and, we have been told by persons who have at tended than, with the most gratifying suc cess throughout. Let us, as Parents and Citizens congratu late ourselves that a new spirit seems to have been infused into our Teachers and Scholars, and that we have a man tit the helm whose motto is " ,PEoGnEss."

Pig iron is not bringing more than the cost of making it in localities with ordinary advantages. To add to the "un pleasantness" of such a situation, there is now some trouble in this locality in keep ing up an assured supply °lcon]. With the unions controlling the mining opera tions, and with the operators in suspected collusion with the strikers, the coal supply is extremely uncertain. If such a state of afThirs shall rentinue for a eonNiderable time, it is not improbable that some of the iron masters of the State may think it ad visable to stop their works. SUICID.E.-Mr Jacob Frantz a highly re spected citizen of West Cocalico township, this county, residing a mile and a half west of Senoeneck, terminated his life last Sat urday- morning the 22d hist by hanging himself in his barn with a pair of leather reins. Between eleven and twelve o'clock, just as dinner was ready, Mr. Frantz was nowhere to be found, and a grown up son, going in search of him, accompanied By a smaller boy, discovered ids father hanging lifeless in tho barn, where he had appar ently hung for more than au hour.

Gazette ctad Bittfrtim EOM At an early hour yesterday morning, eight timber rafts were carried over the darn and badly broken up. In floating, down, some of them came in contact with the piers of the suspension and railroad bridges and suffered further injuries. The accident, we are informed, occurred in this way : A number of rafts were tied up above the dam awaiting an opportunity to Pass the chute, when these eight canto float ing down, and instead of landing above those ahead of them, attempted to Pass down and laud below,to gain the firet chance to pass through the chute. When they at tempted to land, the men on the rafts there Bret, refused to allow them to ' snub ' ou them, and not being able to make the month of the chute, there was no other alternative but to let the rafts pass over the dam, which they did, nearly broad sided. The men were all retained by skiffs, excepting one, before the suction of the dant was reached, and he was obliged to plunge into the water and swim for a short distance, before lie Wins picked up. The rafts were all badly broken, portions of the wreck being strewn along the shore near the bridge, whilst the heavier parts floated don n the river. The accident was caused by the pilots being in too great a hurry to press forward. The loss Ulla, entailed 111)0n Ulu OWIlerS will be large. .dory Ruts 11'recke , 1.- About two o'clock yesterday afternoon a jam of eight rafts were partially broken up by the immense press ure of the water and swung our tile pier.-- Out of the entire number only one remain ed whole—the balance were badly wrecked two or three broken in two; others were badly twisted and some of their timbers de tached entirely. It would be necessary to raft them all over again before they could proceed any distance. The loss incurred by this mishap will amount to considerable. It is reported that Pine Creek was higher yesterday than ever known before. Toe bridge on the Lock haven road was carried away and passed under the aqueduct out into the river. Late yesterday afternoon the water was reported Within eighteen inches of the aqueduct, and still rising.— Fears were entertained for its safety. It is probable that the swollen condition of the stream has done immense damage to the saw mills above, and the lumbermen will be heavy losers.

MARKET.—The Williamsport Gazdtc, April 13 says: The movement of lumber, for the last week, has been quite brisk, amminting to nearly or quite a mil lion of feet per day. The mouths of Feln n ary and March show more activity in ship ments than the corresponding months of the previous year.—Since the opening of the canal and the decrease of charges tor through freight on railroads, the lumber is moving off rapidly, and in a few weeks, at the present rates, it will be difficult to find a full assortment of seasoned lumber tinning the mills of our city. The prospect now is, that the mills will start up with a smaller stock of seasoned lumber on mold than in the spring of 1569. Under such cir cumstances, prices will remain firm at for mer quotations.

Yours Truly, COURT PROCEEDINOS.—The Court of last week possessed but little interest outside of the }limes Burglary case. Charles F. Wright, of Columbia, for stealing a demijohn 01 brandy from William Brady, was sent to prison for ten days. Ben Lowry, a Columbia colored man was sent to prison for threatening to knock the daylights ont of Margaret Myers. Corn'th vs. Jacob Trier. This defendant was convicted for assault and battery on his wife Elizabeth Trier, in July of last year, at their home in Safe Harbor. Trier testified that he had on one occasion "strap ped" her, and at another time slept with au axe in his bed, threatening to use this wea pon on her, iu case she came to bed to him. The defendant in cases of this kind being entitled to make a statement to the Court— without the administration of an oath—told his side of the story, which, if half of what be said was true, he was a greatly injured man, and his wife a degraded prostitute. As there are several other charges pending against this-defendant, the Court suspend judgment for the present. To the Republicans of Lancaster County. Having been charged with favoring the passage of the .let~ey Shore, Pine Creek end Buffalo Railroad bill, I deem it simply a duty to myself to answer the charge. A record, pm-no:tit= to give the several votes on the bill in the House, hits been publish ed, which votes prove just this: "That I voted aye on the question proceeding to the second reading and consideration of the bill ,- that I voted to susntiu the decision of tho Chair ; that a majority of votes of the House was sufficient to take up tho bill for consideration, and tbit on the question: Shall the main question now be put, I voted in the affirmative? This, I beliveos all the evidence which is ofle.ed in suppo - t of the assertion that I litro ed the bill. Whilst I do not deny the coe.ectness of the record, or alleged record, as far as my votes are concerned, 1 do assert that, as an opponent of the bill, I acted in good faith throughout; and my votes thereon, not referred to above, were us follows, as the ollicial record indis putably proves. On Mr. Pa-son's motion "to postpone the further consideration of the tirst section of the bill until the following Monday, and to have the hill printed," I voted "Aye," On the question, " Will the House agree to the first section of the ?" I voted "\o." On the question of "postponing the bill for the present," 1 voted "Aye;" and on the fi nal vote, " shall the bill pass?" I voted " No." During the entire session I have endeav ored to discharge my duty according to the best of my judgment. That I have erred sometimes is probably true, yet I feel as if I might safely rely mpon my record throughout the session, upon various ques tion of great public importance, for a popu lar endrrsement by those who placed their confidence in me, when they elected mo one of their Representatives.
