PROXY VOTING.—We invite attention
of officers of the Election to the recent
law passed allowing soldiers, where not
more than ten of them are together at
one place to vote by proxy. It will be
found in the Sheriff's proclamation as
published in another column. This is a
very important part of the law, and i s
intended to enable soldiers in Hospitals
and on detached duty to vote. If any
of our friends desire the blank forms to
send to their friends they can be had by
calling on Mr. t 4. 11. Ettla.
gir The unwashed Democracy held a
County ConventiOn on Wednesday last,
in Lancaster, to settle a county ticket.
We find quite a lengthy report in the
inteiligencer, from which we glean the
following: Nathan Worley was made
president, ri vice presidents and 4 sec
retaries. A. round dozen candidates for
the legislature was announced, amongst
whom we found the name of George W.
Wormley, of this borough. Mr. Hugh
M. North, of Columbia, was nominated
:or Congress by acclamation. David G.
Eshleman, for Associate Law 'Judge;
W. S. Davis, of Colerain township,
Abram Shank, city, H. B. Dunlap,
Mount Joy and W. U. Custer, Earl, for
the legislature ; W. Carpenter, for
county commissioner; George W. Boyer,
of Elizabethtown and Benjamin Work
man, of Alanbeim, for prison inspectors ;
C. 11, Charles and John Hess, for direc
tors of the poor.
Qom' A few days ago an engine on the
Pennsylvania railroad at West Phila
delphia, which had been supplied with
fuel and water preparatory to tifking a
train west, got loose from the hostler
and run off up the south track like a
streak, snorting and puffing es if giving
challenge for a race, Engineer Edward
R. Black, formerly of Columbia, with
an engine of the fast line, was dispatch
ed at once on the north track in pursuit
of the fugitive, and she being the faster
animal, caught up with the runaway at
Athensville, and, running along-side,
the engineer stepped over and reined in
the flying steed. The Superintendent
at West Philadelphia took the precau
tion to telegraph 'to White Hall, and
had the switch turned so as to throw
her off the track, in case she reached
that point,—Columbia Spy. '
Air There will be a grand mass.meet
ing in Lancaster, on Wednesday next,
which la intended to exceed anything of
the kind since 1840. The Lancaster
Examinervery truthfully says : "Devote
one day to your country, and hear the
questions of the day—to every one so
vitally - important—discussed by able
speakers, who are engaged, and will
surely he present. Let delegations
from all parts of the country attend, and
make the demonstration one long to be
remembered, for the enthusiasm of the
people la the , cause of their country, by
both friend and foe to the . glorious
Union.
okr A large and enthusiastic Union
Meeting was held on Thursday evening
last in the Town Hall. Mr Samuel
Hopkins, an old war Democrat, was cal
led to the chair and John Jay Libhart,
Henry Musselman, Jacob E. Kreybill,
John Paulis, Sr., Geprge Shriner, Jacob
Mellinger, Christian Stibgen, Frank. F.
Hoffmeier, Jno. Noel and J no. O'Bryan,
vice presidents ; Isaac S. Geist, secre
tary. .The meeting was ably addressed
by Samuel J. Rea, of Philadelphia, Ja
cob B. Amweg and George R. Barr, of
Lancaster. Mr. Amweg's remarks to
the war democrats were particularly
happy and several times "brought down
the house." Marietta may be set down
as all-right for honest old Abe, by a very
handsome majority.
gar Mr. George W. Mehaffey, has, we
learn, purchased the handsome residence
which 001. John W. Clark but recently
sold to Mr. Van Leer, of the Eureka
Saw Mill. This is one of the finest res
idences in the borough, and was built
only a fow years since, by Col. Clark,
and was put up without• regard to cost.
The following Columbiana put in
representative recruits : Mrs. Wm. A.
Martin, Mrs. Wm. G. Case, Mrs. E. K.
Smith, Mrs. J. G. Heim, Mrs: J. B.
Bachman, John A. Jackson, Isaac 0.
Bruner, B. F. Appold and Rudolph

well in this respect.
