Col. D. W. Patterson, from the committee
appointed one year ago, to increase the
efficiency of the society, reported that very
little had been accomplished, " owing to the
want of interest felt by our people in the

ly a very bad state of things. Whose fault
is it?

COLUMBIA PROGRESSING : We learn from
our Columbia friends, that a company is about
to be organized in that borough with appro
priate capital for the erection of manufactories
upon an extensive scale. What is the na
ture thereof the public is not fully advised.
The advance of our neighboring town in pop
ulation and business is wonderful indeed, and
reflects great credit on the enterprising gen
tlemen who have "pushed things." It is
outstripping Lancaster far away. Our capi
talists are engaged in stock and gold specula
tions, and matters of that sort, and while they
are adding dollar to dollar for themselves, are,
for the most part, not doing anything to cause
the citizens to remember, after they have gone
to their fathers, that they ever lived I We
mut:t wait for the next generation.

B EWARE 01' IMPOsLTION!
It is a remarkable fact, and one that is favor
able to the already well established reputation
of the HOW E SEWING M ACIIIN E, that the
more valuable the article the more apt it is to
be counterfeited.
It has often been remarked in favor of the
Christian Religion, that if there were no true
Christians in the world there would be no
hypocrytes, and if there were no genuine money
in circulation, there would be no inducements
for counterfeiting. The same rule applies in
Sewing Machin es.
The large and increasing trade of the Howe
Sewing Machine in this city and county, has
been 1 he great incentive that inducts] the Agent
of a rival machine to introduce into this city a
bogus sewing Machine whose only claim to
notoriety is in its name, the A. B. Howe Sew
lug Machine.
We deem it a duty to our friends and the
public generally, to give them a word of warn
ing in time to avoid imposition from unprinci
pled agents who will no doubt attempt to palm
off upon the unsuspecting, this bogus How e
Machine for the original S lltiWE, .111.,
sE WI Nt; MAC 11l E, as by carefully observing
they will be able to see the difference between
the two machines.
The trade mark of the original or genuine
Howe Sewing Machine is a medallion head of
Elias I lowe, jr. the original inventor, which is
embedded in the base plate of every genuine
Howe Sewing Machine, and it has also a very
valuable huprovement in the upper tension
which is regulated by an ingeniously construct
ed wheel, which the bogus machine dare not
use.
The genuine original Howe Sewing Machine
is sold in this city only at No. 25 , .; North Queen
street, were persons in want of the best in the
market arc respectfully invited to call and ex
amine Ihe machines and the work done on
them, before purchasing elsewhere.

EDITORS EXTRESS: DT. WM. M. Whiteside, the
enterprising Dentist, has purchased from me a
large stock of teeth and all the fixtures, the in
struments formerly belonging to me, and also
those used by my father, Dr. Parry, in' his prac
tice. In the purchase, the doctor has provided
himself with some of the most valuable and ex
pensive instruments used in dental practice,
and has beyond doubt one of the best and lar
gest collections of teeth and instruments in the
State. Persons visiting the commodious offices
of Dr. Whiteside, cannot fail to be fully accom %
modated. The Doctor loses no opportunity of
furnishing himself with every late scientific
improvement in his line of business.
