OUR COUNTY.

The County Of Columbia is out Of debt.
except The balance OF State taxes, which
will be paid, II is OF a convenient Size;-
not large enough TO be unweldly, nor small
enough TO burhen its citizens with heavy
taxes, 10 support It's courts and defIay its
expenses. 1t is favored with mighty re-.
sources iH lis iron ore and limestone. II is
contiguous TO inexhausble coal fields. o.
all the northern counties, it is most favored
with eligible water power. 1t takes in
both banks Of the Susquehanna, and lis ca
nal, - Fishing creek, CaIawissa and other
large branches; and lastly its cii2pnS are
about locating its seat Of justice at the CEN
tire, where il will be most convenient for
them, and where it ought justly TO have
been placed long ago. Indeed we can see
10 reason why we should be otherwise than
graifed with our location and advantages
as a county; and why The prospect ahead
should be looked at otherwise than as cheer
ing and hopeful There need be from this
season forward, no commolion in The coun-
ty;-no struggling Of interests as our inter
esIs as citizens will be identica no i'll feel
ing between neghboring villages; none ci
the strife and clangor of conieuding and an,
'gry factions! Except upon national poll.
tics, where differences are unavoidable, we
see nothing likely 10 produce violent con
'lenlion among our citizens. The cultiya
ton Of amicable feelings, among ourselves
is sanctioned both by duty and interest, and
only one thing stands yet, in the way o.
carrying fully into operation such a proper
and commendable intention. In the dispo.
stl of that one stone of stumbling, the
se,,lemen. of that long moo,ed question
500 voices that never yet we're heard or
that side will pronounce in favor Of justice
and future peace and conlenlment in tbt
county; and if we are correct, feeling o
aCquiescence, even from the minority, vii
accompany the decisive verdict of Ihe peo,
pie.
