Mrs. Fanmk K. Weavicr will make pub
lie vendue of her personal property, at her
residerjee, on Rock Street, Bloomsburg, on
Friday next.
Hon. John C. Ellis has our renewed thanks
for documentary favors. Mr. E. is a faithful
and worthy member,' arid soundly demo
cratic. Tor roads at present are in a horrible
condition. We have not seen them so bad
in a long time. Certain places it is almost
impossible to get through with a loaded
learn.
The lime for paying the Government
bounty to volunteers has been extended to
the first of April next. In consequence of
this the draft will not be made on the 10ih
inst. as was ordered.
The First National Bamt. or Blooms
fcrg, commenced operations on Monday
last. Capital $50,000 This institution will
be quite a convenience to our business
men.
On Sunday morning last Mr. Jacob Diehl,
of this place, lost one of his best horses a J
fine, valuable iron-gray horse. We drove
the horse on Saturday just previous to his
death when the animal appeared lively
and in good condition.
We notice several townships in this coun
ty are still a, work raising their qnotas of
volunteers to avoid the Draft. Local bounty
paid is $250. This, with the bounty Daid
to veterans by the Government will amount
to S652
-Thb Ar.t-fcf.rf Ccvnty Democrat has

time a2o. bv the soldiers, instigated by the I
Abolitionists of that place.
John Chambkrlin, of the "Iron Guards,"
but doing duty ir. the Signal Cokps of the
Army of the Potomac, arrived home at this
place. 6o furlough, a few days since, look

Job Work. Any person wishing hand-j
bills printed, with neatness and dispatch j
and upon reasonable terms, will do well by j
giving the Star office a call. We are pre- i
pared and will engage to execute, any kind :
ot a job this section of country may de-j
niaril. J
The Local Senate, ol this place, is in full j
Mau every Wednesday evening. To hear;
its members dWcnssing certain measures j
one would come to the conclusion that the j
"fire-eateth" of the South and the ' Aboli- j
tionists" of the North were at work. There I
are some very good Union men belonging j
to. this institution as well as some very bad j
ones. !
Th Administrator, Hiram R Kuki, of
Thomas Longer' Estate, sold the la&t tract
ol laud of said estate, on Saturday the 5;h
inst., to Wm Losg, inn-keeper at Epy,
Columbia county. The land is situated in
Orange township, and in a pre ty (air state
of cultivation. The tract contains ninety
four acres.
The. Township Elections, will take place,
in this County, on Friday the 18-.h inst.
This is a matter of considerable impor
tance, to pee that good and competent men
are selected :o perform the duties pertain
ingto oar local offices. A Constable, Judge,
Overseer, School Directors, Superisors,and
a number of other officers, are to be made
by ballot In this township Overseer is
qnite an important matter, as well as is the
selection flf Supervisors. Our streets and
alleys need looking after. They never
were in a more wretched condition than
they appear to be in this Spring. Under
ihe iupervision of the late men who had
control of that rnaUer they did not improve
but retrograded. "
Wc bear a great deal of complaint in cer
tain portions of this county about the non
arrival of newspapers. We have frequent
ly been written to on this subject, and are
beginning to get tired of listening to this
old complaint. Abraham Lincoln has a lot
of Postmasters in this county whom we
should suppose knew their duty, but they
most egregiously fail to perform it, in many
instances. We could, if we thought it
would do any good, name several offices,
in this county, where ve direct papers to
every week, at which offices our paper does
not arrive one half of the time, or at least it
is not delivered to the patrons when they
calL There U a Club of that staunch Dem
ocratic newspaper, known as the New York
Dat-Book, taken at the Still Water ofSce,
this county, which is not received every
other week." Single papers, of the nine
Democratic faith, seem to get through, but
the large package very frequency fail? Now,
where lies the fault 1 Is it with the Post
master, atNewYork, Philadelphia, Bloom -bor,
or where ! There evidently is some
Abolition Postmaster detaining and suppres
sing newspapers on the line I He should
fca ferreted out and banished to the Isle of
Sl Domingo, for a terra cf years, or al leat
till he learned cot to violate the laws ol h:
country. This rnal'er of knowin!y and
vrilfaliy violating pon cl":a law, is no
eosli afTair, when ja.iica can be meted out
to lis eiTanrs. Friends, be. oa your
