Slavery and its Evils
The discussion of this question has
hitherto been monopolized by the Abo
litionists on the one band, and on the
other, by the so called Democrats who
desired to perpetuate Slavery in the
•South, and at the same time to make the
North participate in the crime of its
maintenance. We have abstained from
agitating this subject, not from any love
we cherished for "The Domestic Insti
tution" but because we desired peace.
and trusted that in the ordinary progress
of intelligence, the union of the States
could not long be endangered by a sys
tem, so directly at variance with the
spirit of the age, and so prejudicial to
'the honor, and the interests of our com
mon country. .We think, however, with
►the great majority of our northern pen.
tple, that the time has now arrived when
►this dark subject ought to be frankly
tend freely discussed is all its bearings,
tby every loyal citizen. It is already the
cstabl shed opinion of the public, that,
while slavery exists, there cannot possi
tbly be real, intimate, cordial, social and
•commercial intercourse between the
:North and South. Some of the most
distinguished of our officers in the field,
openly avow their abolition sentiments,
and as in the recent case of Col. Coch
rane, when they do so in the presence
of their soldiers, whose intelligence is
on a par with their patriotism, they are
applauded to the very echo. The inde
pendent Press of the country now advo
cate the abolition of slavery, as the only
measure that pan restore peace to the
Nation. The clergy of all denomina
tions, who are faithful to their import
ant trusts, are now preaching the same
doctrine. Recently, in their respective
churches, the Rev. Dr. Tramow, and the
Rev. Mr. WHEELS/I, both of this borough,
preached real abolition sermons, sof the
strongest kind. that were extensively
discussed by the people, some highly
approving, some disapproving, and oth
ers doubting as to the propriety of such
preaching. At the time, we gave them
credit for their faithfulness, we knew
that they were right, and we knew also
that several of their hearers needed
light on the subject from some such re..
liable source, to dispel the clouds of
prejudice that bofogg'd their almost
stagnant intellects.
Now however is the time for action.
The people of West Chester, alive to
their duty as good citizens, have taken
the initiative in the great work and are
now preparing to petition Congress at
its first sitting to devise the ways and
means by which the people shall in their
united majesty and might, but with due
regard to the vested interests of all our
loyal fellow citizens, uproot the deadly
Upas tree, of which our present war is
but part of the bitter fruit. It is certain
ly our duty to aid is this good work.—
'The hotter war the sooner peace."—
We therefore counsel the leading spirits
of our Borough to bestir themselves,
without further delay.
or The poultry yard of Mr. Eagle,
adjoining this Borough, was visited a
few nights since and relieved of sixteen
chickens. This is the second time Mr.
E. has suffered in like manner during
the present fall. We also learn that
the residence of Mr. David Eyer, at
Schock's Mill, was entered on Monday
night last, by several Germans, and the
entire wash of the family, which was
soaking in a tub, stuffed into several,
bags, and the party just in readiness to
start with their plunder, when Mr. Eyer,
overheard the noise, got up, and, in an
almost nude state, attacked and secured
one of the thieves, holding him until
assistance came to his aid. The other
German.escaped, but he is known, and
will, beyond doubt, be arrested.
..... ta.
elif E. D. Roath, Esq., of this Borough,
is getting up an Infantry company, to
be attached to Col. Gray's 61st. Regi
ment. The captain and his 2nd Lieu
tenant (S. L. Dellinger) took a squad to
Camp Curtin on Wednesday last. They
were immediately provided with uni
forms and turned "right-in" to Camp
life. The 'Squire has had considerable
military experience—having at one
time been Captain of the Maytown In
fantry. A number is now required to
fill np the company. Capt. Roath, or
Lieut. Dellinger, will, from time to time,
be in town to enlist those who may feel
disposed to join.
r The Lancaster Union says : " We
learn from the newspapers that the
Court of Inquiry in the case of Com
mander Poor, of this city, charged with
negligence concerning the escape of the
pirate Sumter, has adjourned, and on
their report the Navy Department has
ordered a Court Martial to convene,
composed of Captain Breese, President,
Captains Latimer, Levy, Jarvis, and
Chauacey; Lieutenant William G. Tem
ple,Jadge-Advocate. The Court will
meet on the 18th inst. Coma Poor / is
now on a visit to his family in this city.
Sr On Friday morning at an early
hour, Mr. Henry Sultzbach, Sr., hearing
some theives amongst his turkeys, got
up to detect them, and on going down
the yard steps fell and broke one of his
ribs and cut his face. The scamps
escaped.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.—"On Thursday
night the 7th instant,"•says the Columbia
Spy, "a fatal accident happened on the
Pennsylvania railroad, on Front street.
On Friday morning about 5 o'clock, Mr.
Martin Erwin, when proceeding to his
train standing on the south track found
lying on the main track, opposite the
Washington House, the body of a man
most horribly mutilated by the passing
trains. Assistance was called and the
body removed. An examination of the
track showed that the accident bad hap
pened opposite the Bellevue House, the
body having been dragged to where it
was found lodged between two of the
cross ties. It was only on the finding
of a knife with the name "J. H. Arms"
on the handle, which had evidently fal
len from the pocket of the unfortunate
man that the body was identified as that
of John Henry Arms, a well-known
Columbian. Although the face was
but partially bruised, there was no like
ness remaining. The body was horribly
mangled' being almost cut to pieces. It
was taken to the warehouse of D. F.
Griffith, and there wrapped up prepara
tory to removal.
Mr. Arms was last seen, as well as
we can ascertain, on Front street, near
the scene of the disaster, between ten
and eleven o'clock. It was supposed
that he was killed by the first freight
eastward, before eleven o'clock, and
may have been mangled by each suc
ceeding trains passing over the same
track in each direction during the night.
Nothing positive is known, however ;
but there must be some traces of the
accident on the wheels of the cars strik_
ing him, which will probably settle the
question as to the time of the accident.
Mr. Arms was an old railroader, and
had met with more than one accident
in running the Pennsylvania Railroad.
He had not been in the employ of the
company for some time. He enlisted
with Capt Herr, in Harlan's Cavalry,
and accompanied him to Washington,
but was never sworn into the service
and returned some weeks ago to Colum
bia. Be was a young man of some
thirty.five or six years, and leaves a
wife, but no family.
TEMPERANCE.- We were very much
pleased with a lecture delivered here
last 'l'uesday evening by Wm. Nichol
son, Esq., on the subject of Temperance.
We congratulate the Good Tempters
in having so efficient an agent in the
field as this old veteran. His lectures
must do good. A hypercritical mem
ber of our Marietta Lodge took excep
tion to some of Mr. Nicholson's remarks
that told somewhat severely on the fash
ions of the fair, but we suspected that
the thing was a ruse to curry favor with
the ladies, a goodly number of whom
were present, and if our friend succeeded
in his efforts we wish him luck of his
bargain.
The Marietta -Lodge of Good Tem
pters meets regularly every Wednesday
evening at 7 o'clock, and is, we under
stand, doing good business. The follow
ing are the officers of the Lodge for the
present quarter, viz : W. O. T. Barr

Trn GRIFFIN CANNON: The Govern
ment Inspectors have tested forty of
the three hundred now being made at
Pliccnixville, for the Government. They
were finished in a superb style, and stood
the test well, clearly proving the super
iority of this gun. Each cannon was
loaded four times, and discharged in
rapid succession. These wrought iron
cannon of Mr. Griffin's are far superior
to any steel gun that has as yet been
made, and cost but half the price, and
will stand in a fair. test doable the quan
tity of firing.
MAN'S FOOT FOUND.—The Philadel
phia Bulletin of last Saturday says, that
on last Friday the foot of a man was
found in front of the engine house of the
Pennsylvania Railroad at West Phila
delphia, and supposed it to have belong
ed to the Irishman Flannigan, who was
run over by the cars below this city last
Thursday.—Harrisburg Telegraph.
We learn through Edward R. Black,
engineer on the Mail train, that the foot
in question belonged to Harry Arms,
who was so frightfully cut-up at Colum
bia a few days since.
fir The now Confederate pos
stamps are green, with a lithographic
likeness of President Davis, within dciub
le oval border, surmounted with the
inscription, " Confederate States 'of
America." Outside of the circle, and
at the head of the stamp, ie the word
" postage," and at the lower edge its
denomination, " five cents."
r The Lancaster County Return
Judges met on Tuesday last and Counted
the Army vote. The result does not
change the result heretofore announced.
Both the republican candidates for Pris
on Inspectors and Directors of the Poor
are elected. Those are all there was
any doubt about.

pair for all good knit woolen socks de-
livered in Harrisburg. The best color
is grey, and the yarn should not be too
fine or closely 'knit. The socks should
have double heels.

nificent number. The Bridal Fashion
plate of six figures in bridal attire, is

IMPROVED GOTTA PERCHA.
CEMENT ROOFING,
The Cheapest and most durable Roofing in use.
IT IS FIRE AID WATER PROOF.
It can be applied to new and old. Roofs of all
kinds, steep or fiat, and to Shingle Roofs
without removing the Shingles
The Cost is only about One-Third that of
Tin, and it is 2'W.I.CE as duTable.
This article has been thoroughly tested in
New York City and all parts of the United
States, Canada, West Indies, and Central
and South America, on buildings of all kinds,
such as. Factories, Foundries, Churches, Rail
Road Depots, Cars, and on Public Buildings
generally, Goyernment Buildings, &c., by the
principal Builders, Architects and others,
during the past four years, and has proved to
be the IHEAPEST and MOST DURABLE
ROOFING in use; it is in every respeet
Fire, Water, Weather and Time Proof cover
ing for roofs of ail kinds.
This is the only material manufactured in
the United States which combines the very de
sirable properties of Elasticity and Durability,
which are universally acknowledged to be
possessed by GUTTTA PERCLIA and INDIA
RUBBER.
No heat is required in making application.
The expense of applying it is trifling, as an
ordinary Roof, can be covered and finished
the same day.
It can be applied by any one,
and when finished forms a perfectly Fiat
Pacior surface, with an elastic body, which
cannot be injured by Heat, Cold or Storms,
Shrinking of Roof Boards, nor any external
action whatever.
LIQUID GUM . PRIMA MUFF.
For Coating. Metals of all kinds when
exposed to the Action of the Wheth,
er, and for Preserving and Repar
ing Metal Roofs of all Kinds.
This is the only Composition known which
will successfully resist extreme changes of all
climates, for any length of time, when applied
to metal, to which it adheres firmly, forming
a body equal to three coats of ordinary paint,
costs much less, and will last three times as
long; and from its elasticity is not injured by
the contraction and expansion of tin and other
metal roofs, consequent upon sudden changes
of the weather.
It will not CRACK in cold or RUN in warm
weather, and will NOT WASH OFF.
Leaky tin and other, metal Roofs can be readi
ly repaired with Guta Percha Cement, and
prevented from further corrosion and leaking,
thereby ensuring a perfectly warer tight roof
for many years.
This Cement is peculiarly adapted for the
preservation of Iron Railings, Stoves, Ranges,
.Safes, Agricultural Implzments, ttc., also for
general manufacturing use.
Gutta Percha Cement.

and we are prepared to supply orders iron
any part of the country, at short notice, for

pared for use, and Giutta .Percha Cement in
