Notice 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
tend us the mcney. September Court pre
sents a good opportunity to many indebted
to brinrr or send their amouuls due. Bills
u
shall be seni to all as fast as they can be
made out, but our friends know nearly how
touch is due as 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 aire.xrs and the amount
is important to the printer. We have sent
oar paper to some over two yaars and a
half without receiving one cent, and we
can't afford to send it much longer without
being paid up, neither woulJ we if we could.
It would be much better for both patron
and editor to have these subscription bills
squared up in advance, or at least daring the
year, and not permit them to run one, two
and three years, unpaid. Such work will
break up an editor, if be allows his patrons
to presist in that course. Now, we do not
intend it to be practiced upon us; we want
every man who owes us to pay up. This
notice is not intended for those who pay us
in advance, but unfortunately this portion
of our patrons is beautifully small.
PaKMirM List In to-day's Star can be
eeec the premium list of the Columbia
County Agricultural, Horticultural and Me
chanical Association, for the next annual
exhibition, whicU will be held, on therego
lar Fair Ground, on the 18th, 19th, and 20th
of October. The premiums are much bet
ter than they were last year : they are suf
ficiently large to make it quite an object
for our farmers to attend with their various
articles of production, stock Lc. 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 iuteres'.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 We learn that invi
tations have been extended to quite a num
ber of Bands throughout the Slate to attend
a Musical Festival on the 28th at Pottsville.
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. We have not been in
formed whether our band will allend. or not;
bat we venture to say did they attend they
. would eland second to none as performers.
Camp Meeting 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 judging 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. Johk G. Fhicze 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 be is a candidate, with a stiff
opponent, for a Legislative nomination.
, Prepare to Shaxe. The mornings and
venings are becoming qoile cool. Excel
lent ague weather this. All that is needed
to bring on the shakes is a quart oi butler
'milk and the runny side of a cellar door.
' On the first page of our paper can be f een
the eo much talked of political speech of
James E ecu a man. It completely lets t?.e
wind out of the Republican sails, hence
their bilter feelings toward it.
A. M. Rupert, of this place, is making
op some very handsome and desirable self
sealing cans, capablo of holding one and
lVo quarts. :They are fine for putting op
, peaches, tomatoes, wLortleberries, &c.
Statu Fair. .In to-day's -paper appears
an advijrtismsnt relative to the Btate Agri
cultcral Fair, to which we would direct at
tention of cur readers.
Ors readers are informed that we are
ready and waiting to receive anything in

RAYMOND'S FAMILY
SEWING MACHINE!
patented march 9, 1858.
rillCE SIO EACH.
TiTESSRS. ZUPPINGER & ROBBINS, of
Bloomsburg, having purchased the ex
clusive right of the above valuable Impro
ved Cheap Patent Sewing Machine, for
the County of Columbia, will be happy to
supply their friends with the article tor the
accommodalionof themselves and families.
The . following are some of Ihe superior
advantages tbis implement possesses, viz:
1. It sews from 400 lo 600 tight stitches
per minute.
2. Double thread Machines aie from the
more complicated character of their mech
anism invariably managed and il.readed
with more or lees difficulty ; not so with
RAYMOND'S, a child can manage it ir. two
hours, aud it is threaded easier lhaa a com
hi on neecie.
3. One of the moM valuable features of
this Machine, is (he srnallness 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
yel produces a searn, sufficiently strong for
any work lor which it i 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 team is so strong if well done, thai the
swongect material will tear before the
seam will give way.
7. Among the array of Pa'ent Sewing
Machines, (here are none so cheap and
durable as Raymond's Patent, but no Ma
chine is adapted to all kinds of work as
expedience has proven. There are perhaps
none so realy uselul, doing such a variety
of wore for ihe immediate ue of the fam
ily circle, and al such a moderate price as
RAYMOND'S PATENT.
8. The operator can shape his seam jusl
as he pleases, waves, leave and flowers,
etc., can be represented or imitated.
9. It is particularly adapteu to all kinds
of stitchirg such as gentlemen's shirts,
bosoms, riatbands, 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 o! conduction.
10. But we all admit, that the advantage
to health, and principally to lh virion or
eyesighi, inuueed by ihe use of Sewing
Machines, surpasses infinitely all oiher ad
vantages. 11. This Machine fastens the seam al
ways itself, but if ihe operator wishes it
unlaslened or open, there is a way lor it
too, thus you can have il fastened or not,
as you please, which is, sometimes, espe
cially for beginners, a very favoruble cir
cumstance. If the seam is left unfastened,
you can draw it out in three secends and
save the thread.
For sale by ihe undersigned, at iheir re
spective residences, in Bloomsburg, who
uill put the Machine in operation and give
all necessary instruction.

MEDICAL REVOLUTION
The World Unanimous!
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
THE GREAT COUNTER IDRITANT! !
The virus of disease often makes its wty
to the internal organs through the pores of
the skin. This penetrating Ointment, melt
ing under the hand as it is rubbed in, is ab
sorbed through the same channels, and,
reaching the seat of inflamation, promptly
and invariably subdues il, whe her located
in the kidneys the liver, the lungs, or any
other important organ. Il penetrates ihe
surface to the interior, through ihe countless
tubes that communicate with Ihe skin, as
summer rain passes into ihe fevered earth,
diffusing its cool and regenerating influence;
SKIN DISEASES AND GLANDULAR
SWELLINGS.
Every species of eaJerior irritation is
quickly reduced by the ami inflammatory
action of this Ointment. Angry Ervptions,
such as salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Teti'eri
P.ir.gworm, Scald Head; Nellie, Rash, Scab
ies, (or Itch) k.c, die out, lo return no more,
under this application. Hospital expert
ence ia all parts of ihe World proves its
infallibility in diseases of the skin, ibe mus
cles, the joints and the glands.
ULCERS,, SORES, AND TUMORS.
The effect ot this unrivalled external
remedy upon Scrofula, and other virulent
ulcers and sores, almost roaraculous. It
firt discharges (he poison which produces
suppuration and ptoud flesh, and thus the
cures which its healing properties afterwards
complete are safe as well as permanent.
WOUNDS, BRUISES, RURNS, AN
SCALDS
In cases of the fracture of the bones, in
juries caused by steam explosions, Bruises,
Burns, Scalds, Rheumatism, Stiffness of the
Joints, and contraction of the sinews, i: is
employed and warmly recommended by
the faculty. This marvellous remedy has
been introduced by its inventor in persons
into all Ihe leading Hospitals of Europe,and
no private household should be without It.
UN DEFINABLE TESTIMONY.
The Medical Staff of the French nd Eng
lish Armies in the Crimea officially sigaed
their approval of HOLLOWAY'S Ointment,
as the most reliable dressing for sabre cots,
siabs, and gun-shot wounds. It is also
used by Ihe surgeons of the Allied Navies.
Both the Oimmerit and Pills should be uisd
in the following catet :
Bunions,
Mercurial Emotions.
Burns,
Chapped Hands,
