BLOOMSBURG, PA.
SATURDAY MCKN1NQ, MAY 4, 1061.
Tub proceedings of tho Cattawissa war 1
meeting, wero unavoidably omitted, last !
week on account of the absence of the
Editor.
Mr. Lloyd T. Sham-less, has just
received new Spring and Summer Goods,
at his Store in Bloomsburg, and wa advise
all of our readers, to give htm a call when
they see his Card in tbo "Columbia Dem
ocrat." The Philadelphia Inquirer, is an
excellent City Daily. It is published by
Wm. W. Harding, Esq., at 90 00 per
annum, in advance, Attention is directed
to its Prospectus in this Columbia Demo
crat. Sherivf Miller, has just returned
from tho City, with a now supply of Spring
Goods. Tho "Old Arcade," is always up
to time and keeps pace with the latest fash
ions. Ladies, you now know where to
find tho centre of attraction.
Wkiiave tho Ladio's (Ohio) Kcpository,
for May. It is a superb number, replete
witb useful and entertaining reading mat
tcr. Each number contains two fine en
gravings, and aro of tho brightest order
of execution.
Plcaso send us tho -Ipril work.
Hon. Peter Ent, of Light Street, Col
umbia county, Las four ions, and
THREE of them have enlisted in their
country's service. They are all bravo
patriotic young men, and like their Father
and Fathcr's-Fathcr, never betrayed their
trust or dishonored their country. Com
mcndablo patriotism coupled with great
sacrifice of pecuniary and personal com
fort.
Men for Defense Tho offico of tho
11 Columbia Democrat,'' has furnished its
full quota of men for the defense of the
Country. Mr. C. F. Schwadereu and Mr
Harrison A. Siiuman, have volunteered
in Capt. V. W.llieketts' Company, having
for that purpose dropped the composing
stick and rule. Mr. Owen M. Fowler,
a graduate of this office, who has since
last fall been discharging the duties of a
"Journeyman Printer," iu Philadelphia
has also volunteered lor tho war and is
now on duty in Washington City, baring
Lis head-quarters in the National House
of Representatives. All honor to the pa
triotic and bravo Printers.
y
ISyOur neighbor of the Dcmocr U made
n capital speech at tho meeting in the Court
House on Friday evening last. Col. Tate
is now with us and declares that he will
ttand by the Government iu this hour of
national danger.
Columbia Co. Republican,
Dr. John, in the abve paragraph, (-peaks
a strange language "Col. Tate is now
with us." Wo aro precisely whero wo have
been for over thirty years, squaro upon
the Democratic platform, and always in
support of every just war in which our
country has been engaged. And, without
stopping to enquire into the causes which
superinduced this war, wo arc with our
true and trusty friends in defeneo of the
National Flag seven-tenths of whom are
of our political family and wo will patri
otisally vindicate the honor of tho "Stars
and Stripes," to an- ignominous death or
glorious victory.
Bloomsburo has worn a war-like ap
pearance, for tho last ten days, and may
be compared to a Military Camp, A. ar
tial music of the fife and drum and the
sturdy tramp' oi the soldiers' feet, almosl
constantly salute our cars and rc-animate
the inherent spirit of patriotism and mil
itary prowess. Every indication ii for
War, and wo aro reminded of "the Peril
ous Times," foretold by tho Apostles and
Trophets.
Our patriotic young men of Columbia
county, arc raising two Companies of Vol
unteers, and expect soon to bo called to
service by tho Governor. Capt. AV. W.
lllOKETTS, commands the "Iron Guards,"
and Capt. J. D. Meliok, tho "Columbia
Artillerists." Lieut. Col. W. H. Ent, of
Mojr Gen. Dana's Staff, is also on active
duty. They aro a lino looking company
of noble young men, and we fondly trust, j
thould they bo called hto tho battle-field, ,
, , .
will prove themselves worthy tho proud I
prove themselves worthy
appallation of "Sons of Columbia."
Last Sabbath our Soldiers attended

tho call of tho General Government. Tho

Kay An old soldier, writing to tho Now

lork kvtning Post, gives tho fol owing
uniciy hints to tlio volunteers who arc now
. , ,
hastening to the defence of the country :
1. Kcuiber that in a campaign mora
men die from sickness than by tho bullet.
2. l.ino your blanket with one thickness
of brown drillinjr. This add
but four
ounces in weight, and doubles tho warmth.
3. Duy a small India rubber blanket
(only 51 CO) to lay on the ground or to
throw over your shoulders when on guard
duty during a rain storm. Most of tho
Eastern troops are provided with thc&e.
Straw to lie on is not always to be had.

the brain, lou can lastcu it up
tincntal in fair weather, or turn
it down
when it is wet or very sunny.
5. Let your beard grow, no as to pro
tcct the throat and lungs.
0. Keep the entire person clean; this
prevents fevers and bowel complaints iu
warm climn. s. Wash your body each
,i -e mi'. 4 .m.. .r i

oily meats. Gen. Scott said that the ,00
free use of these (toircthcr with neirlect iu
keeping the skin clean) cost many a. sol
dier his life iu Mexico.
7, A sudden check of perspiration by
chilly or night air often causes fever and
death. When exposed do not forget your
blanket.
Gen. Scott True as Steel. A dis
patch to tho IV. 1'. Tribune, of Wednes
day, says : "Gen. Scott was thoroughly
, ,i, . ii, c.nfi,
concerning his resignation, and took oeea-
sion to say to a group of gentlemen, scv
cral of whom were officers, and who bad
'
pointed out to him the report: ''Sirs, I
havo fcrved half a century under that
beautiful flag, and though I have the fir
mcst commence in you all, nnd in your
patriotism, I can moro easily believe that
you would trample that flag in tho dust
than that I should over bo suspected of
resignation at this hour of trial. No,
Sirs; please God, I will fight for many
years yet for this Union, and that, too,
under the protecting folds of the star
spangled banner."
Death at Camp Curtin. Patrick
M Call, aged about 30 years, died yester
day at Camp Curtin, from tho effects of
exposure and irregular habits. Tho de
ceased arrived here about a week ago as
a private in the Danville Itiflcs, comman
ded by Capt. M Clurc, but was not mus
tered into the service of the United States,

The Cheshire Republican a decided
Democratic paper printod at Kecne, N. II.
speaks tho sentiments of its associates in
t'ae Granite State in tho following words :
"Still wo have a country ,aud
it must be tho effort of every patriot to
save it if po.-.-ibie. Mr. Laieolu and his
frauds havo control of the Government,
and however wo uia diaagrco with their
past policy, wo can also see that it is only
in conjunction with tho power of the Gov
ernment that order cau be brought out of
cbao-i that credit can be sustained, and
universal anarchy avoided. Hence it is
that party so far as this quc.tiou of Couu
try is concerned, should be left out, and
all proper tfforts of our Govcrnim-nt tn
au-taiu itself be upheld by the people. '
Amen amen, say we to this, and the
echo will resound through ah New Etig
.aul. Tho attack upon Fort Sumter, the
seizuro of navy yard, fortifications, Gov
ernment treasures and other property,
together with the letter of marquo Procla
mition of President Davis to lcgalizj
piracy, tho taunt and deBanco bandied be
tween sections, seem as though madness
ruled tho hour, nnd that nothing but a
conflict of arms dreadful as the remedy
is could restore reason to its throne.
That this issue may be avoided that God,
iu his infinite mercy, will open before us
eomo other way for reconciliation, wo pray
with all our heart but this contingency is
pending with dreadful significance '; so
imminent that it would seem as though the
miraculous interposition of Divine Provi
dence alone could savo us from tho shock.
But if our fato depend upon tho cast of
battle, to its bloody arbitration must we
submit with heroic fortitude, willing to
give life, property all that wo hold dear
for our couutry. .
