NOTICC TO THOSE INDEBTED TO THE STAR
Many of our subscribers will find bills in
to day's paper, to which we earnestly ask
them to pay their earliest attention and
send us ike money. September Court pre
sents a good opportunity to many indebted
to bring or send their amounts due. Bills
shall be seni to all as fast as they can be
made out, but our friends know nearly how
touch ib dee us on subscription or other
wise, and can remit without delay, if they
only feel so disposed. A few dollars each
may not seem of consequence, but multiply
by the hundreds in airenrs and the amount
is important to the printer. We have sent
our paper to some over two years and a
half without receiving one cent, and we
can't afford to send it much longer without
being paid up, neither would we if we could.
It would be much better for both patron
and editor to have these subscription bills
squared op in advance, or at least during the
year, and not permit them to run one, two
and three years, unpaid. Such work will
break op an editor, if he allows his patrons
to presist in that course. Now, we do not
intend it to be practiced upon as ; we want
every man who owes us to pay up. This
notice is not intended for those who pay us
in advance, br.t unfortunately this portion
of our patrons is beautifully small.
PacifirM List. In to-day's Star can be
6eec the premium list of the Columbia
County Agricultural, Horticultural and Me
chanical Association, for the next annual
exhibition, which will be held, on theregu
Jar Fair Ground, on the 1 8th, 19:h, and 20th
of October. The premiums are much bet
ter than they were last year j they are suf
ficiently large to make it quite an object
for our farmers to attend with their various
articles of production, stock &c. The me
chanic is much more encouraged by the
late offered rewards, in fact all. We hope
to see the people of Columbia county earn
estly engage in this matter and try to make
these exhibitions more interes'.ing each suc
cessive year.
Delegate Elections. Next Saturday is
the day fixed for holding our delegate elec
tions, for the purpose of choosing two per
sons from each township, to represent the
Democratic party in County Convention, on
Monday following, at the Court House, in
Bloomsburg;, and to place just such men
on the ticket as they think proper. Elect
good men as delegates and you may rest
assured that they will nominate a ticket
that we can insure success. The candidates
all have opposition, and the contest is ex
pected to be pretty warm.
Musical Festival WTe learn that invi
tation have been extended to quite a num
ber of Bands throughout the Slate to attend
a Musical Festival on the 28th at Poltsville.
It has been stated that over thirty bands
were invited and expected to be present.
A prize of a tenor drum will be awarded
to the best band, have not been in
formed whelker-oat band will atten4 or not;
bat we venture to say did they attend they
. would stand second to none as performers.
CampMeettG' During the present week
the Methodists of this place and vicinity
have been holding a camp meeting near
Buckhorn, between five and six miles from
this place, which commenced on the 17th
inst., and judging1 from the interest mani
fest it was largely attended. Vehicles of all
descriptions are to be seen going to and
from this place of gathering. The weather
so far has been very favorable. A number
of celebrated preachers from abroad were
expected to be in attendance.
Col. Jobk G. Freeze is at present consid
erably indisposed, suffering from a severe
attack of dysentery, which is keeping him
confined to his room.. It is rather unfortun
ate for him as he is a candidate, with a stiff
opponent, for a Legislative nomination.
- Prepare to Shaxe. The mornings and
evenings are becoming quite cooL Excel

to bring on the shakes is a quart of butter
'milk and the sonny side of a cellar door.

MESSRS. ZUPPINGER & ROBBINS, of
Bloomsburg, having purchased the ex
clusive right of the above valuable Impro
ved CheaF Patent Sewing Machine, for
the County of Columbia, will be happy to
supply their friends with the article for the
accommcdationof themselves and families.
The following are some of the superior
advantages ibis implement possesses, viz:
1. It Sews from 400 to 600 tight stitches
per minute.
2. Double thread Machines aie from the
more complicated character of their mech
anism invariably managed and threaded
with more or less difficulty ; not so with
RAYMOND'S, a child can manage it ir. two
hours, and it is threaded easier thua a com
mon needle.
3. One of the most valuable features of
this Machine, is the smallness and the
compactness of its mechanism.
4. It can be attached to a board, table or
stand, in operating order, and removed in
less than half a minute.
5. It greatly economizes the thread, and
yet produces a seam, sufficiently strong for
any work lor which it in intended, a qual
ification not known to all kinds of Sewing
Machines.
6. No human hand is capable of produ
cing a seam so regular and systematic.
The seam is so strong if well done, that the
strongest material will tear before the
seam will give way.
7. Among the array of Pa'ent Sewing
Machines, there are none so cheap ami
durable as Raymond's Patent, but no Ma
chine is adapted to all kinds of work as
experience has proven. There are perhaps j
none so realy useful, doing such a variety
of wore for the immediate use of the fam
ily circle, and at such a moderate price as
RAYMOND'S PATENT.
8. The operator can shape hi- seam just
as he pleases, waves, leave and flowers,
etc., can be represented or imitated.
9. It is particularly adapteu to all kinds
of stitchicg such as gentlemen's shirts,
bosoms, ristbanJs, collars, etc., and all
kinds of ladies' sewing, including silks,
lawns, delaines, calicoes, dusters, etc., ex
cepting lor men's heavy wear, this Machine
is rather too light of construction.
10. But we all admit, that the advantage
lo health, and principally to t vision or
eyesight, inuueed by the use of Sewing
Machines, surpasses infinitely all other ad
vantages.
11. This Machine fastens the seam al
ways itself, but if the operator wishes it
unlasiened or open, there is a way for it
too, thus y ou can have it fastened or not,
as y ou please, which is, sometimes, espe
cially for beginners, a very favorable cir
cumstance. II the seam is left unfastened,
y ou can draw it out in three seconds and
save the thread.
For sale by the undersigned, at their re
spective residences, in Bloomsburg, who
will put the Machine fn operation and give
all necessary instruction.

strengthens our conviction of the wisdom
of our choice.' 'So long as you continue

are developed in the science of lexico
graphy,' &c, &c.' June 6, I860.

MEDICAL REVOLUTION
The World Unanimous
IIOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
THE GREAT COUNTER IRRITANT! !
The virus of disease often makes ils way
to the internal organs through the pores of
the skin. Ttiis penetrating Ointment, melt
ins under the hand as it is rubbed in, is ab
sorbed through the same channels, and,
reaching the 6eal of infiumation, promptly
and invariably subdues it, whe her located
in the kidnes the liver, the lungs, or any
other important organ. It penetrates the
surface to the interior, through the countless
tubes that communicate with the skin, as
summer rain passes into the fevered earth,
diffusing its cool and regenerating influence;
SKIN DISEASES AND GLANDULAR
SWELLINGS.
Every species of eWerior irritation is
quickly reduced by the ami inflammatory
action of this Ointment. Angry Eruptions,
such as salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Teller
Ringworm, Scald Head; Nettle, Rash, Scab
le, (or Itch) kc, die out, lo return no more,
under this application. Hospital experi
ence in all parts of the World proves ils
infallibility in diseases of the skin, the mus
cles, the joints and the glands.
ULCERS, . SORES, AND TUMORS.
The effect of this unrivalled external
remedy upon Scrofula, and other virulent
ulcers and sores, almost maraculous. It
fir-t discharges the poison which produces
suppuration and proud flesh, and thus the
cures which its healing properties afterwards
complete are safe as well as permanent.
WOUNDS, BRUISES, BURNS, AN
SCALDS
In cases of the fracture of the bones, in
juries caused by steam explosions, Bruises,
Burns, ScalJs, Rheumatism, Stiffness of the
Joints, and contraction of the sinews, it it
employed and warmly recommended by
the faculty. This marvellous remedy has
been introduced by its inventor in persons
into all the leading Hospitals of Europe,and
no private household should be without It.
UNDEF1NABLE TESTIMONY.
The Medical Staff of the French nd Eng
lish Armies in the Crimea officially signed
their approval of HOLLOWAY'S Ointment.
as the most reliable dressing lor sabre cots,
siabe, and gun-shot wounds. It is also
used by the surgeons of the Allied Navies.
Both the Ointment and Pills should bt vud
in the following cases :
Bunions,
Mercurial Eruntion.
Piles,
Burns,
Chapped Hands,
Chilblains,
Fistula,
Lumbago,
Swelled Glands
Sore Legs,
