SAD AFFAIR AT COLUMBIA—FORE BOYS SHOT—TWO OF THEM KILLED.—LaSt night (Sunday), a few minutes before 8 o'clock, the report of a gun was heard in the neigh .borhood of Erisman's Saloon, corner of Front and Locust streets, Columbia, fol lowed soon after by screams of distress. It appears that a number of small boys, two of them sons of Mr. Erisman, proprietor of the saloon, and the others children of Mrs. Pella, Mrs. Dickinson and Mr. Charles Rawlings, were playing in Mr. Erisman's yard, when Mr. E.'s eldest son, a lad of ten or eleven years, went into the saloon and came to the back door with a gun in his hand. He told the boys he was going to shoot them ; and immediately drew up the gun and fired, the load taking effect Up on four of the boys. Mr. E.'s second son was killed almost instantly, receiving some sixty-seven shot in different parts of his body. The son of Mrs. Felix, aged 6or 7 years, was shot in the abdomen, and lin gered until this morning at 7 o'clock, when death put an end to his sufferings. The son of Mrs. Dickinson was not seriously wounded, and Mr. Rawlings' son received but a slight wound, but one shot pene trating his breast. The gun was kept load ed for the purpose of killing rats, and the lad who fired it was not aware of its being loaded. Deputy Coroner Hunter held an inquest on the bodies of young Erisman and Felix this morning. The affair has caused a general gloom in Columbia. THE FIRST DEATH IN AN 01. D FAMILY. —lt will be seen by reference to our obitu ary record that Mr. Jacob Mishler, proprie tor of Mishler's Hotel, and a highly-re spectable citizen of Reading, died on Friday morning last, in the 57th year of his age, after an illness of a few days. This is the first death in a family of ten children. The father and mother, at a hale old age, are also enjoying the decline of life at the old homestead, near the village of Reamstown, in this county, where they have resided for , over 58 years. The youngest of the family is Mrs. William Garrett. Mr. M. was a brother of Mr. Benjamin Mishler, the cele brated Bitters manufacturer, and Mr. Isaac Mishler, the well-known Liquor merchant of 127 North queen street, this city. The rarity of a death for nearly sixty year in one family is well worth noting. EMIGRANTS FOR Tur.: WEsr.--The emi grant travel, over the Pennsylvania rail road, says the Philadelphia Ledger, for the Far West, during the present month, is much greater than at the same period in 1804. The number sent for the month up to the present time is about 3000, and most of them are farmers and farm laborers.— Emigration by the present route would be much increased if the Western railroad companies did nut throw obstacles in the way, by frequent changes of the rates or fare, and arbitrary charges upon extra baggage, which is checked in Philadelphia to the point which the emigrant desired to go to. The Western roads should encourage this class of travel as much as possible, for many of the roads would never have been built, nor would they now be of much use, but for the emigrants that have settled in the States through which they pass. The emigrant counts the cost of reaching a certain point before leasing home, and if the Western roads demand more than a fair price, he will seek other channels of reaching his destination. Now that emigration to this country is likely to be very great, the sub ject of transporting them to the West is well worthy serious consideration. STILL ANOTHER PLAN TO (;ET RID or THE Wonms.—To guard against the worm nuisance next year, everybody knows that the millers of the present season must be despatched as scam as they make their ap pearance,. which is now very shortly. The plan now suggested of ridding the trees of these pests, is to procure a few sheep of what is termed " fly-paper" (which is nothing more than heavy paper smeared with balsam of fir or varnish,] and taking round blocks manufacture a couple of:lan terns. These lanterns are to have lighted candles placed in them, and hung in the trees. The millers, attracted by the light, will flash around them, and alighting on the paper,:of course stick fast. In this way hundreds can be captured and destroyed, and as the experiment is a cheap one, it is well worth trying. COUNTY OFFICERS' FEES.—The following is a copy of the Act passed at the last session of the Legislature, increasing the fees of several County Officers of the Common wealth. It will be observed that the Act is merely temporary in its provisions, and au thorizes the increase to be demanded dur ing the present year only : An Act increasing the fees of the several County Officers of this COo, otonmealth. SECTION 1. Be it enacted, &c. That tor one year from the passage of this Act, the Sheriff, Prothonotaries, Clerks of the Or phans' Court, Clerks of the Court of Over and Terniiner, Clerks of the Court of quarter Sessions, Recorders of Deeds, and Registers of Wills, of the several counties of this Com monwealth, shall be and they are hereby authorized to add to, collect and receive twenty per centum in addition to the sum total of all fees now allowed by law : Pfo vided, That this Act shall not apply to the counties of Philadelphia and Allegheny, Susquehanna, Bradford and Sullivan. COLONEL BOWMAN.-COL Bowman, to whom General Sherman addressed his re cent letter excoriating Stanton and Haßeck, is said to be the former Superintendent of West Point Academy, who was removed from that position last summer, by order of Secretary Stanton, because he invited teen. McClellan to delier the oration at the lay ing of the corner stone of a monument to the soldiers from the Academy who have fallen in the civil war. Our readers will probably remember the circumstance.— Cleaveland (Ohio) Plaindealer. —The Colonel, ever since his removal from command at West Point, has been re siding in this city, except at slight intervals when on detached duty. He is a brother of the lamented Bishop Bowman, of this city, and one of the noblest and most accom plished officers in the old Army. Fort Sumter was erected under his supervision, • and numerous other public works construct ed by him attest his great ability as an nth ,cer of the engineer corps. He is a splendid specimen of the American soldier and gen tleman, and has hosts of devoted friends wherever known. The petty and malig nant spite of such a man as Stanton can never take from Colonel Bowman the re spect and esteem of his fellow-citizens. HORSE INSURANCE COMPAN Y.—The Penn Township Horse Insurance Company, for insuring horse and for the detection of horse thieves, has been organized, and is now pre pared for the transaction of business. An drew A. Zug has been elected President, and E. H. Gingrich, Secretary and Trea surer. The Board of Directors will meet at Jacob Busser's tavern, near Manheim, on the first Saturday in each month. JUST CRITICISM.—The 14th Army Corps correspondent of the New York //crab/ thus speaks of the "eleventh hour " promo tion of the brave, meritorious and gallant Hambright and others. The Colonel, the correspondent states, declines to accept the promotion, and very properly, too, we think: Davis' Brigade Cononanders.—\o corps commander in the army, I may safely say, has more able subordinate commanders than has General Davis ; yet, strange to say, their advancement, from some cause or other, has been sadly neglected. There is Hobart, of Wisconsin, who at Chicaniau ga alone won a brigadier's rank, goes home next week with his regiment a simple brevet brigadier, Then there are Hunter, Gleason, Hambright and Langley, who have com manded brigades long and faithfully, and have time and again won a full star. All these officers have been neglected, and now, when the war is over, Gleason gets a cold breast, Hunter and Hambright are recom mended for a brevet brigadiership, and Langley, with a commission of full colonel in his pocket, is recommended for brevet colonel. Hambright,l believe, is the senior colonel and Langley the senior lieutenant colonel in the army, and both of them de cline to accept the paltry crumb thrown to them now on the eve of retiring to civil life, when they look back and behold their juniors, who have-won promotion by stay mg at the rear on court-martials and " hob nobbing" with politicians, promenading Pennsylvania avenue beneath brigadiers' stars. The same disregard of merit extends down into positions of lower rank. SALE OF DURHAM. CATTLE.-Mr. James Gowen, a well-known agriculturist and stock-raiser, advertises a sale of Improved Durham Cattle, at his country seat, "Mount Airy," near Philadelphia, on the 20th of this month. Our farmer friends, who are in want of choice stock for breeding, will find this sale well worth their attention.— See the advertisement in another column. WHIT MosnAr.--Great is Whit Monday, but greater still the crowds with which a denizen of our goodly city is greeted in every quarter to-day. ' The railroad trains, stages, private conveyances, etc., have brought in their thousands, and nothwith standing the weather is intensely warm, the thermometer being about 90° in the shade, the streets are swarming with pleas ure seekers. The circus and fat woman are not here, but the flying carriages are attracting a large share of attention, and a variety of other amusements are on hand to cater to every taste. Allen, the razor-powder and liniment man; McEntyre, the renowned worm-verruifuge man, and a host of lesser esculapian lights are discoursing on the wonderful effects of their all-healing pana ceas; and many leave their rostrums re lieved of a portion of shinplaster currency, if not of the "ills to which human flesh is heir." Then we have song, picture and "yaller-kivered" literature dealers, who relieve the monotony of their calling by bringing noisy drummer boys to their aid. And when the gaping crowds become athirst, why "here is your ice-cold lemon ade" to quench the same. The visitors are invited to "roll up,tumble up,any way at all, so you get up," to test the quality of the de hg htful beverage, at "only ten cents a glass." Of course no sun or dust can get to it, and it is gulped down with gusto by those who invest their "ten-centers." 0 f the numerous other "wonderful sights,' it is impossible to make a note. It is enough to say that everybody, his wife or sweet heart as the case may, old and young, of all classes and conditions, are enjoying themselves as best they know how. There fore, great is Whit Monday, and long may it continue as one of the peculiar yearly "institutions" . of Lancaster. A CAUTION TO FENCE-BREANDIDi AND THIEVEs.—Among the Acts passed by the late Legislature, is one providing: " That if any person or persons, from and after the passage of this Act, shall malici ously or wantonly break or throw down any post and rail, or other fence, erected for the enclosure of land, or shall carry away, break or destroy any post, rail, or other material of which such fence was built, en closing any lot or field within this common wealth, such person or persons, so offend ing, shall he guilty of a misdemeanor, and WI conviction, shall be sentenced to pay a tine not exceeding fifty dollars, one-half thereof to he paid to the informer, on esm -viction of the offender or offenders, The other half to the support of the poor of such county, township, borough or ward where the offence has been committed, with costs of prosecution, or to undergo an imprison ment not exceeding six months, or either, at the discretion of the court." LANCASTER HORSE MARKET, MONDAY, JUNE STH, 1865.—The trade is very dull at present, and the sales and arrivals limited to a few ; but there is apparently more reg ularity in the prices.

There are others, more destructive than the three united. We al, lude to the deadly poisons sold as ruin, gin, brandy, whiskey, wine, ctc. A glance at our criminal calenders, police reports and medical statistics proves this. In the State of Maine, the headquarters of the temper ance movement, there is no restriction on the sale of Speer's Samburg Port Wine —a flattering testimonial of its worth and purity. In our opinion its sale should be encouraged in every section of the country, not merely for its non-intoxicating proper ties, but for its rare and valuable medicinal virtues, approved by eminent members of the faculty, in Europe and America. All druggists keep it. Soldby H. E. Slaymaker, No. 31, East Eing street; Lancaster, Pa. Heals Bents —There seems to be no end tollte dhow ery of oil in Permsylvarda.

To the ' . itor of the New,york Permit me to describe one of the early scenes in the grand drama, the last act of which has not yet been played. It was during the session of Congress, the winter preceding the Charleston Convention, that a grave senator occu pied the attention of the Senate on the state of the nation. His solemnity of manner, his, simplicity of style, his ex treme views on the subject of state rights, all proved the sincerity of the speaker, and recalled to memory the figure, voice and sentiments of the dead Calhoun. The voice seemed more like the emanation of a spirit than the ut tered convictions of the man who was destined to, be the leader of the great rebellion. A sort of awe spread over the Senate chamber, and even Wade, and Sumner, and Chandler listened with an attention akin to respect. Among the auditory there was one who seemed more than the rest absorbed in the scene before him. The Senate ad journed, and Stanton hastened from the Senate chamber to one of the great hotels of Washington, and asked to be shown to the room of the venerable Governor Me dary, of Ohio. Scarcely had he entered when, with a voice full of passionate energy, heexclaimed—" Medary, I have just heard Davis, and, by all the gods, he is the greatest of living statesmen! The South is right, and Davis must be the nominee of the Charleston Conven tion ; and to secure that end, you must come at once to Washington and take charge of the government organ." Governor Medary suggested that there were certain reasons why such an ar rangement might not be acceptable to Mr. Buchanan, when Mr. Stanton re plied : " I will look to that ; I will be respon sible for that! 1 will go at once to the White House, and in two hours from now I will see you again." Aledary waited, Stanton returned; but for reasons unnecessary here to narrate, the scheme failed. This was the open ing scene which preceded the rebellion, and Edwin M. Stanton played the chief role as the advocate of southern rights, and the especial friend of Jeff. Davis. Governor Medary sleeps in an honored grave, but there are yet threeliving wit nesses to the truthfulness of this narra tive. One is a state prisoner who lies in chains at Fortress Monroe ; another is his jailer, who declared the prisoners, views to be just, and who sought to place the man he now holds in irons, in the Presidential chair ; the third and last is the venerated James Buchanan. This is but a stray scrap of history, but it is nut unworthy of being presented. VOICE FROM TILE GRAVE Mr. Vallandlgham's Letter We print, on the outside page, a letter from Mr. Vallandigham to the Young Men's Democratic Association of Lan caster, Pa. As the calm and thoughtful utterances of one who has been grossly misrepresented, bitterly maligned, and most wantonly persecuted for opinions' sake, this letter commends itself to the attention of every unprejudiced mind. It contains nothing, in thought or lan guage, to offend the most zealous sup porter of the Administration, while at the same time, in its statesmanlike re view of the important events that have been crowded into the past four years, it constitutes a searching vindication of the position and course of the Demo cratic party in reference to those events. The whole letter breathes the spirit of the purest and most exalted patriotism, and will leave no doubt on the mind of any one not utterly a slave to partisan bigotry, of the writer's intuitive, firm and unalterable devotion to THE UNION. In his recommendation to the Democ racy, to give their support to President Johnson, so far as they consistently can, in all his efforts at the pacification of the lately rebellious States, Mr. Vallan digham soars so high above the com mon atmosphere of the factionist and demagogue, as to put to shame the mean maliciousness of the enemies who have so obstinately hunted him down.— Reading Gazette. The War Secretary The Springfield Republican, alluding to the report that Mr. Stanton is going to resign, and that the President intends sending him to congenial Prussia, thus administers a scorching rebuke to the laudatory of the Secretary in Washing ton and elsewhere: That Mr. Stanton should be entirely willing to leave both the War Depart ment and the country, can readily be believed. There is a shallow press at Washington, disgracing the government by pretending to be its organ, which has lately overflowed with coarse abuse of those who condemn some things done by the War Secretary, declaring that it is because of his patriotism that he is hated and abused. * * It is nonsense to talk of hatred to him because of any good thing he has done, or of hatred to him on any account, except among those whom he has per • sonally injured and insulted. The army officers have always complained that they could obtain neither just nor gen tlemanly treatment from the War Sec retary, and his recent abuse of General Sherman has made their ill-feeling more intense. There 'are many men, im prisoned and released by Secretary Stanton's ofders during the war, who threaten to bring suits against him for damages as soon as the reign of civil law is restored. For these and other like reasons a residence abroad for a few years will be pleasanter than any posi tion at home." THE Evening Press of last Saturday contains an editorial, evidently written by a " Minister of the Gospel." Speak ing of a time just before the war com menced, the writer says: "Then, too, our navy, small as it was, had been treacherously sent to remote seas, and the munitions of war, to a great extent, had been treacherouslyre moved from our public arsenals and fortresses. An administration was in ower that sympathized wholly with the rebels, and which embraced men actually engaged in the rebellion. God could not have selected a, time when we we seemed to human eyes an easier prey to the destroyer." Here are three false statements, whether intentionally false or not, we cannot say. 1. Our navy was not " treacherously sent to remote seas." The largest home squadron during the previous twenty years, was that stationed on our coasts and in our harbors, during the closing part of Mr. Buchanan's term. The of ficial proof is on record. 2. The munitions of war were not "to a great extent removed from our public arsenals and fortresses." 3. The Administration in power did not "sympathize wholly with the re bels." Neither Mr. Buchanan, Mr. Toucey, Mr. Holt, Gen. Dix, nor others connected with the Administration, sympathized with the rebels, or favored secession. Floyd, Thompson and Stan ton advised them to get their States out of the Union. But under Mr. Buchanan neither he, Floyd, nor Thompson, was permitted to aid them.—Hartford Times. P. Grey Meek Arrested Again On Tuesday last the editor of the Watchman was taken into custody by the Deputy United States Marshal of this dist'r'ict and conveyed to Pittsburg, on a charge of counseling resistance to the draft, and with advising drafted men not to report. Mr. Meek arrived home again late on Thursday, none the worse for his little jaunt, much to the disappointment of his abolition friends, who had given it as their opinion that he was at last finally disposed of, and hoped to hear of his death by hanging or some other such dire intelligence. This makes the fifth time that the editor of this paper has been arrested through the instrumentality of aboli tion bloodhounds. It seems to be their intention to pursue him to death. They will fail to accomplish their object.— Bellefonte Watchman. A Murderer Escaped. Andrew Mi Ginley, who was convicted about five years since of the murder of Thomas Shaveland, and under sentence of death, broke from the jail of Montour county on the night of Monday last. He managed to escape from the cell in which he was confined by sewing off six iron bars of the window. This must have taken him a considerable time, as two of the bars were three-quarters of an inch square, while the remaining bars were half an inch in thinkness by two inches width. From the window of the cell he lowered himself down to the jail yard by making a rope out of the shetts of his bed.. He got out, of, the bail yard by digging , away the ground eneath the atone sill under the • gate way, there being no stone foundation to impede his work. Mobbing a Woman in lowa. [From the Des Moines S n.J For a few days Indianola has been the scene of Amazonian warfare. A disgraceful mob, composed of women, has given the town a notoriety which its well-disposed and orderly citizens must be heartily ashamed of.. It ap pearsthat a Mrs. Patterson, a• widow who has been under the Doctor's care for two weeks, was peculiarly offensive to the exclusive loyal : female portion of the town, for some expres sions of hostility to the Administration prior to the unfortunate death of Mr. Lincoln. On the receipt of the news of US diabolical assassination, some evil disposed person,• probably a personal enemy, gave currency to the reportthat this unprotected and invalid woman had expressed joy at the death of the President. Without giving the subject the least investigation, and bidding de fiance to the laws, a number of women, among them the wife of the Presiding Elder of the Methodist Church, visited the house of Mrs. Patterson and com pelled her, an invalid, to leave her house, and carry an emblem of mourn ing which, we understand, was a flag, and march around the town. She protested that she had not uttered a word of exultation at the death of the President, and implored to confront her with the witness, but her protestations were answered by the insulting reply that she was lying. She assured them that she was unable to walk the distance required, and if forced to perform the humiliating service they must carry her. Her protestations of innocence, her demand for the proof, her widow hood, and even the precarious condi tion of her health, had no power to move their pity. Go she must, and they forced her out of the house, and dragged her around the streets to be scoffed and jeered at, tearing her dress nearly off Not content with inflicting this gross indignity upon the sick mother they attempted to compel her little daughter, thirteen years of age, to perform the same service, and because she had spirit enough to resist the out rage she was beaten and bruised until blood streamed from her nose and her arms were black and blue. The above, we are credibly informed, are facts. What lower depth of degradation can we reach than the existence and en couragement of a public sentiment which transforms females, in the midst of schools and churcees, and surrounded by what ought to be Christian influences into the worst type of men. In God's name what kind of an example is this to set before the youth of the country? 1)o these women desire that their sons and daughters should pattern after them, and trample under foot the laws of society, humanity and God? Such an exhibition of heartlessness and con tempt of law, humanity and ChriSti anity—disgraceful alike to the town and the parties engaged in it—we venture to say has not occurred since the mobs of Paris, which originated the bloody and disgraceful French Revo lution of 1798. Have our people gone stark mad, and are the mothers and daughters of America to live in history as the most degenerate type of their class? As profoundly as we pity the poor in valid mother who was scourged. in the public streets of Indianola, and sVho was pained by the outrages visited upon her little daughter, we would rathera thou sand times occupy her position and have her feelings than enjoy the unenviable notoriety and torture of soul of those who persecute her. Since writing the above, we under stand that Mrs. Patterson went to the , postmaster of Indianola, who was re ported as the witness against her, and , demanded the reason for reporting such a falsehood, and lie denied utterly ever having heard or reported any such thing. lieneralHeck's Antics It is reported that (ieneral Halleck has been removed from the command of Richmond, to which he was appointed soon after the occupation of that city by the federal forces. If the report is true, the removal has not been made a moment too soon, as, in his new position, he had been playing many " fantastic tricks." Among other acts he actually issued an order setting aside the marriage laws of Virginia, and commanded that no mar riages should take place except on con ditions laid down by him. This extra ordinary proceeding was too much for even some of the journals which have hitherto been among his advocates, and one of them, the New York Times, is constrained to say : " The restrictions upon matrimony in Gen. Halleck's order are absurd, and revolting to human nature. They are in antagonism with the laws of God and of man. They are a tax upon chastity, an invitation to illicit intercourse be tween the sexes, an encouragement to adultery and lewdness. They are an abomination that should not be toler ated in a Christian land. They are an insult to the spirit of enlightenment, and exhibit the most disgraceful illus tration of tyranny that has ever de graded a nation." spttixllutit¢L u-u,The Great Enirl lab Remedy.
