OBITUARY.

Written on the death OF CHRISTIAN D. ASH,
JOHN K. STiNE and EMAEuRL AsB, members
OF The school, al the Ash School-house, Ben
ton township, Columbia county.
Three school mates dear, have gone 10 resi +,
We hope they're numbered with The 3iesI;
They're sleeping in the silent grave,
For them no human power could save.
Emanuel, John and Christian too,
We now must bid you all sdieu
Your friendly voice our hearts did cheer,
Now a, your graves we drop a tear.
They'd not yet passed quite thirteen years,
Their school days end, their lot W as cast,
To be The playIhiug of the blast.
Where once smile our hearts did greet,
We now. behold vacant seat;
A shadoWed gloom rests on each brow,
For we are sad and lonely now.
When merry voices reach the ear,
Ii calls 10 mind when thou wert here,
Midsl solitude in.etin bowers,
We dream OF happy by-gons hours.
Dear parents calm those anxious isars,
And dry yopr many failing tears
Your dearest treasures you may meet,
Within a CAIN and sure retreat.
These flowers were nped just in their bloom
Their morning son has set al noon
May we prepare for that blest shore,
Where parting W ords are heard no more.
AMANDA.

In publishing synopsis OF the Court pro-
ceedings in OR last We. by some cause or
other, neglected to publish the report made
by the Grand Jury. The following is the
report:
To the Honorable Judges of the Court Of
Common Pleas now comprising Conrt
OF Quarter Sessions OF the Peace in and
for The County OF Columbia.
The Gfard Inquest OF the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania inquiring for the body of
the County OF Colum bia respectfully report,
That we have examined The public build
ings belonging TO lhe county. and ind them
all in good repair.
We recommend d that there De an addition
of twenty feet put 10 the rear of the CourI
House. and that the ground floor OF said aJ-
dilon be made into fire proofs TO be used
By the Register and Recorder and Commis-
sioners and that the Commissioners office
De held in the room now occupied as a
Grand Jury room, and that a parI of said
room, with part of The room now used
and occupied by The Commissioners, be
made into a room for Sheriff's Office; and
that The balance OF the Commissioners Of.
ice be used by the Treasurer Of said county;
and that on the second floor of said addition
there shall be Two rooms fitted up, one !or
the Grand Jurors aud one for The Traverse
Jurors.
The public road between RuPert and Geo.
Willis in Montour township, is very dam
gerous for want Of proper fence between
said Road and The Lackawanna and Blooms
burg Rail Road,
All of which is respectfully submitted.

President Johnson was nominated for

lican Convention because of his Demo-
cratic antecedents, and 10 secure TO him
Democratic support. Now, when he acts
like Democrat and exhibits, as President,
the very principles for which be was made
Vice President, the ShOddy leaders de-
nounce him as traitor to their party aud
It's princiPles-whatever they are. As they
