The excitement is over and no serious damage done. The volcanic ernplion with its destructive streams of lava thut threatened to devastate the beautiful City of Columbia ! according to the preditious of Prof. Wiggins has failed to appear. All is peace and perj feet quiet reigns in Warsaw. r I Our old und experienced salesman, S. E. Cauglinjnn, has given the whole matter the closest scientific investigation, and has found that the dense smoke issuing Ironi the I ground and the rumbling noise like distant thunder can be seen and heard in the Northeastern section ol Chester County. Our many frieuds und customers in Lexington, therefore, need not entertain any fears of encountering streams o! red-hot lava rolling down Main Street in Columbia. It is a matter of universal regret that the prophecies of Prof. Wiggins caunot he relied on in the future. It is impossible as well as useless for us to enumerate articles and prices as our stock of . SFM.VG AJVD SI* GOOBS is varied and complete in every department, and at PRICES that DEFY ALL COMPETITION in Columbia.
