WEDNESDAY MORNING, AUG. 17, 1864.
Th newspapers, the 'daffies, ''contain
.nothing of lata ol any great' importance. A
synopsis of war news will be found in
' another colamn. All qoWaforfg the Poto
'mac. The army at Petersbarg it hot doing
'anything. The forces here are scooting oc
' casienally. The state ol affairs in this coun-
lf are io a good condition, as they ever have
'been. The people of Columbia county are
'law-abiding.
. More Troops. On Tnesday last, reir.
lforcemsnt arrived at this place, to the tone
of about 750, making in all some 350, or
more. They are encamped on the Fair
Ground. The late arrival brooght Infantry,
li in said that General Couch 'is 'here, and
that bis Head Quarters are in town.
TnT Reverend gentleman who was op
the creek preaching not long since and who
was frightened oat of a school boose where
he'Vaa ezpaciating, through fears of a rope
being pot about his neck.was heard remark
that, those people op ibe creek were en
trenched, and were ready to maks resis
tance, and he only wished the soldiers bad
come in time to have gone with him up
the creek the time be was obliged to leap
oat of a window.
It would seem that some people have no
sense ; and on occasion like last "Saturday
'evening, hey very Ireqaently make 'It
'known. When tt! soldiers arrived here
"all the old women that the town holds were
'seen and heard. They werejobilant over
'they knew not what. But they we're not
'seldom heard to remark, "the copperheads
will eatch it now," "they will be burned
oat," "thecopperhead cffices will be tore
'p now," wiih other like egressions
These creatares are really hot worth 'mintf
' jng. Their actions are only in accordance
with the more weak minded ones of (he
male sex, belonging to thst ponio'n of the
Abolition party lhat are totally blinded and
'crazed on the brain with tha negro They
talk about burning peopl) out, at the same
time do not a 'much 'as think that ibey may
have occasion some morning to scratch oat
and dress themselves by the light of a large
'candle What fools, to talk about burning,
'when there is no're'asbh why their property
would nol ignite at the touch of the torch,
as well as that of a Democrat.
Ma. Elias Mcndeshall, a red hot Abnli

MiVshal take measures, on Saturday even

Meodenhall smelt treason on oar track, and
nothing would do bat we mcst be sent after

out into the country for the purpose of giv

not reported in the last draft, and for that,
he said, we '9Ugkf to be hung and made an

ought to be bong!" Many of our readers
are acquainted and have dealings wiihuhis
man, Elias Mendenhail, and we make this
statement of facts for the simple pa'rpose ol
informing oar readers up the creek as well
as throughout the county how he would
treat your humble Editor and Democrat. He
would have os bung because 'As "thought we

"more than the simple announcement of the
death of this man. Mr. Etxrlt enjoyed a
wide circle of friends' and acquaintances,
having lived io this county almost from his
boyhood np to bis death. He was born in
Nazareth, Northampton county, this State,
on the 23d of June, 1789, and died on the
30th of July, 1864, in the 76th year of his
. His health had not been good for
several months past, although at times he
was able to ride out, and seemed tolerably
mart. It is said that be was "suffering
Jrom a tendency to dropsy'
He was in public life, nil til last Fall, as
Protbonotary of Colombia county, with the
exceptions of one term, since 1830. He
first received the office by appointment, by
the then present Governor; and, since 1839,
has been re-elected term after term, uotil
tour last Democratic convention, in 1863
when be declined being a candidate, and
tendered his roost sincere thanks to the
people for the many proofs of their con
fidence which he had heretofore received
at their hands. No man ever, held office,
against whom there was so little complaint,
to prove which, the mere fact Of his retain
tog bis position so many years, dhe term
after another, is ample evidence. He was
an obliging, courteous And correct officer,
ever ready to render assistance when in his
power. Mr. Etmly lived the life of an
honorable, upright man and Christian, be
ing for many years a zealous and active
member of the Lutheran Church. The
Church lost a worthy aad,exemp!ary mem.
ber and the community a useful man. He
lilted a targe and respectable family. ;
