I'M LATE Can. fiaomm —The Columbia Spy
of this morning, referring to the late Capt.
Brooks, uses the following language : At one
time our relations with Capt. Brooks, then a
Columbian, were intimate, and enabled us to
appreciate his noble and joyous nature. He
made himself beloved by all his associates, and
leaves behind scores of friends by whom he will
always be held in tender recollection. The
sympatbits of the many warm friends of his
father, Samuel Brooks, Esq., are with him in
his great loss.

QUALIFICATIONS OF Vorsas.—The law requires
a person who claims the right to vote, to have
been a citizen of this Commonwealth "at least
one year, and in the election district at least ten
days immediately preceding such election, and
within two years to have paid a state or county
tax, which shall have been assessed at -least
ten days before the election. But a citizen of
the United States who has previously been a
qualified voter of the state, and removed there
from and returned, and who shall have resided
in the election district and paid taxes aforesaid,
shall be entitled to vote after residing in this
state six months. But citizens of the United
States, between the ag-s of twenty-one and
twenty-two years, who have resided in the
election district ten days aforesaid, shall be en
titled to a vote. although they have not paid
taxea "
TIM Tax on TOBACCO. —The heavy tax on to
bacco imposed under the internal revenue law
is already beginning to be felt here, and a con
siderable falling off in the demand for the arti
cle is experienced. Our readers have but a faint
idea of the extent to which this tax must affect
the tobacco trade ; but when we state that un
der the law some of our manufacturers will
have to pay $2OO a day to the '3overnment,
they will be better able to arrive at an intelli
gent conclusion on the subject. There is another
thing, too, which will operate against the manu
facturers, unless their whole system of business
be revolutionized. They generally give a credit
of four months on their sales, but under the
law they are required to make returns every
month to the collector. They will thus be
compelled to pay the tax long before they re
ceive payment for the tobacco, a thing which,
considering the great amount, will be out of
the question. The result of this will be, they
will have to do a cash business exclusively, or
none at all.
FILM. -A fire broke out in the lumber yard
of the Messrs. Smyser, about a mile and a half
from Goldsboro', in York county, at 3 o'clock
on Thursday afternoon. It is believed, to
some extent, that a spark from the locomotive
attached to the mail train which arrived in
York between 3 and 4 o'clock the same after
noon, occasioned the fire ; but we understand
this is not established to a certainty. As no
fire apparatus was on hand at first, the flames
continued to spread until nearly all the lumber,
consisting of sixteen piles, was consumed. Mr.
Isaac Frazer, by great activity, saved nearly a
raft of lumber.
We have since learned that the lumber was
owned by Mr. Albert G.. Smyser. He is insur
ed for $2,500 in the York County Mutual, and
for five hundred or a thousand in some com
pany out of the county. His loss above the in
surance may be in the neighborhood of $2,500.
It is estimated that from three to four hundred
thousand feet of lumber have been lost.
Tns Oyer= Tamm.—As almost everybody,
as is anybody, is more or less interested in oys
ters, we give the following facts from the Balti
more Sun of yesterday, in regard to the trade
in that city. The Sun says : " The oyster
trade of that city, heretofore one of the princi
pal of this city, has received a serious check,
and there is now every probability that it will
not reach to mare than fifty per cent of the
usual amount. '[hose engaged in the trade,
have held several meetings with a view to
remedy the deficiency as far as possible, but
thus far there appears no probability that the
difficulty will be overcome. In the first place,
the principal °later fields in Virginia are still
closed, and those of Maryland were so complete
ly dredged last year that they cannot afford a
half supply. Another difficulty would be, it
plenty of oysters were in the field, there are
not vessels to bring them to the city. It is
estimated that fully five hundred vessels en
gaged in that trade have been destroyed, or
seized and confiscated, since the war began, I
besides which, nearly all the small boats, usu
ally employed in catching oysters, have disap
peared from the shores, and those formerly em
ployed in taking the oysters from the water
have sought other employment. The result of
all these embarrassments is that oysters are
much higher than for many years, and the sup
ply is far short of the demand. Thus a most
important branch of business has been partially
prostrated, and the entire West, the largest
customers of Baltimore, cannot Le fully sup
plied, even at the advanced prices which will
naturally follow so many embarrassments."
by. DZ. LYON, of Erie, will preach in the
Presbyterian church, corner of Market Square,
to-morrow at 10} o'clock A.
A SPICIAL Kimura will be held by the Young
Men's Christian Association at their room this
evening at 7} o'clock, and all members of the
Association are requested to be present, as Im
portant business will be transacted. By order
of the President.
BEARS —Three cages, containing eight large
bears, arrived here last night via Pennsylvania
Railroad from the west. They were fierce
looking customers, and attracted quite a crowd
to get a sight at the monsters. They left for
the east.

Home STOLEN. —A horse was stolen from the
Morgan House, corner of Second Pine streets.
The horse was found this morning tied in a
shed adjoining Murray's livery stables. The
horse was owned by Mr. M'Cullough.
ABIUBSTID 808 CIROULATING LYING HANDBILLS
—Philip Billmyer was arrested at Lewisburg,
on Thursday last, and Thomas Smith and Jacob
Smith at Middleburg, on Friday last, for circu
lating bills against John J. Patterson. They
were bound over to appear at the next Court.
BVIALT YOE JEFF.—Our quondam friend Davis,
agent of the associate press, was arrested yes
terday at the depot on suspicion of being a
pick-pocket. All we have to say about the
matter is, that if the °Meer who made the
arrest would be a little more vigilant he might
possibly succeed In capturing the pick-pockets
who have been sporting so extensively in this
city. We know that Davis picks up all the
news items he can get hold of, but don't believe
he would pick a man's pocket.

To the Afflicted.
The undersigned would respectfully inform
those who are afflicted with Rheumatism, Dys
pepsia, Consumption of Liver and Kidney,
Coughs,
Fevers, and all diseases arising from
impurity of the blood, that she is prepared to
furnish Mrs. Westhoven's German Vegetable
Medicines at very moderate rates. I have also
on hand a quantity of invaluable Salves for
Sore Eyes, Frozen Feet and Piles. References
can be furnished ai to their wonderful efficacy,
whenever called upon. There need be no ap
prehension in regard to my competency to ad
minister it, as I have had it on hand for the
past Biz years. As they are now sold at reduced
prices, no family should be without them over
night. They can be had at any time at my
residence, is Pine street, between second and
Front. (aul3-dlm) MRS. L. BALL.
THE wonderful swam which has attended the
use of my medicine, has induced me to say a
word through the press in its behalf. My medi
cines are prepared with great care, expressly
for family use, and are admirably calculated to
preserve health and remove disease. I can
therefore recommend them with the greatest
confidence, and am fully percriaded from past
experience that they will give very general if not
universal satisfaction. But at the same time Ido
not pretend to assert, that they are "cure ails."
I have cured Gravel, Dropsey, Scrofula, and
have regulated the female system. Reference
can be had at any time with the persona, as they
feel a delicacy in having their names in the
paper. MRS. LUCRETIA BALL.
