The Town Council on Saturday last
decided to proceed with the pavement
of the side walks on Third street as
originally ordered, giving the property
holders thirty days in which to complete
the work. A majority of the property
holders on Main street have also petit
toned for thepavemento of the sidewalks
on that street, and this necessary i'm
provement will doubtless be promptly
made. In fact the condition of the side
walks on Main street have been stand
ing disgrace to our town. With a
couple of thousand dollars lying idle in
the Treasury, there is no reason why
necessary improvements should not be
made Mt once.

WITH regret we part with about 100
subscribers this week. 1t is not at their
request, but because we cannot publish
newspaper from year to year without
pay. The men who complain about
money being dull generally have
enough for cigar or glass of beer.
The COLUMBIAN costs weekly less than
either. The sum due from each man
is small, 1t is true, but multiply these
small items by $500, and the aggregate
Is respectable. We trust our friends
will pay promptly-a once, and those
who cannot at least should notify us.

SOMETHING ABOUT DRINKING IN
WARM WEATHER.-Drinkin is a
habit. Some people drink little, not
because their constitutions require less
than others it is their habit. These
people never perspire 30 much as those
who drink more. The moro that is
drunk, the more water passes away, or
the system would suffer. AS IL is the
strain affects it. The skin, the kidneys,
bowels, lungs, are all drawn upon.
The result is, as may be expected, ex
haustion. For this reason the man
who drinks much water, particularly
during the summer and in the hottest
weather, is less able to endure fatigue.
The water is of no benefit to him-that
is, the excess. 1t must pass away, and
this requires an effort of the system,
which is the sweating process. 1t is a
bad habit to drink so much water a
false thirst is created. We should
drink only what is needed. The habit
of drinking more will soon be over
come, and the person will feel much
stronger and more capable of bearing
fatigue. In winter, little fluid is need
ed beyond what our food furnishes in
summer, some more, but not much.

Republican County Committee.

| To, Postmaster. At
| DEAR SIR: AS means of promoting
the success ofthe Republican candidates
at the approaching election, it is deemed
important to have list of subscriber:
to the New York Tribune in this
county.
viii you have the kindness, as early
as possible, to send to my address al
| Towanda, a list of subscribers to the
| Tribune at your Office.
Your Immediate attention to this re.
| quest is very desirable.
Very Truly,
j. HoLCoMB,
Chairman Republican Committee OF
Bradford County.
The above neat little document Just
issued would seem to indicate desire
on the part of the Grant worshippers
to ascertain the number of 7ri6unes
sent to the various post-offices, with a
possible view to their suppression.
Creditable business this, and fair sam
pie of the dirty work we may expect
from the Administration party this
Fall. We would suggest to the editor
of the Republican of this town, that
when he sends in his report to the
"Chairman of the Republican Commit
tee of Bradford County," as of course he
will, he should state that the copy of
the Tribune received at this Office is an
Exchange" and we should be much
disples sed to have it stopped, especially
as it now contains so much really vaIu-
able Information about Mr., Grant and
his horse jockey friends, which we
wish to use during the campaign.

THE Fourth of July passed quietly in

the day in neighboring towns where
celebrations were in order. There were
no infractions Of the peace and the re-

was rigidly observed. Those young
sters whose patriotic fervor was not
wholly to be repressed, crossed the
bridge below town and exploded fire
crackers unmolested in Hemloclz town

enness occurred to mar the quiet of the
day. There were numerous picnics in
the vicinity of town which were well
attended.
IN Mifllinville the Order of American
Mechanics observed the Anniversary
by appropriate ceremonies as did the
Order of Knights of Pythias in Cambria.
The day was exceedingly warm and
the shade of the trees was more than
unusually grateful, hence the various
parties for fishing and camping out in
the woods were freely patronized.

80 r
We have observed for the past few days,
inIthe window of Maj. S. NJ. Timberlake's
Metropolitan" Store, a handsome picture,
said to- have been painted by Maj. DAVID E.
HENDERSON, formerly of the G. s. Army,
but now a resident ofthis, his native county.
The picture'is an oil painting representing
Gen. "Stonewall" jackson in his tent on the
night succeeding the bloody battle Of Fred
ericksburg. On the ground floor of the tent,
with a Mcclellan saddle for his pillow. lies
Col. Alex. r. Boteler, apparently sleeping
with a souhdness that somewhat resembles
TIE ''sleep that knows no waking" Gen.
jackson, having observed that the light of
his candle was shining in the face of his
sleeping aid, has placed his testament on its
edge, 60 as to protect the eyes of his friend
from the light. However. our space will not
permit us to give-a more lengthy description
of a picture. admirable both in design and
execution. We understand it is for sale, and
any person having the funds so to invest, and
wishing a picture that would not only crafty
the patriotic feelings, but at the same time
prove. snSornan,ent to any parlor, may pur-
chase il either from Maj. Henderson or Mai.
S. 81. Timberlake, the last of whom now has
i, in his possession.
