APRIL AND DECEMBER UNITED HYMENIAILY.
Ezra Comfort, aged rs, and Miss Sarah E. Carr
aged 10, residents OF this city, were, yesterday,
married in Chester by Rev. j. b. Maddux.
The courtship OF this couple is somewhat ro-
mantle, but although hastily consumated was
strictly legitimate, and with the full knowledge
Of the-wel friends Of the parties, The groom
has long since laid away to rest his parental an
cestors while the bride was acquainted with the
griefs and neglects of orphanage at very ten
| der age.
Shortly after the death Of her parents, Miss
Carr was removed to the childrens Home, in
Philadelphia where she remained until taken
out by George Karsner, (familarly known as the
Eyes Of Delaware, y at Odessa, and entered hit
| family as a help to bis wife. She resided here
/ until September last, when she found home
| with a Mrs Miller, at Fourth and Madison SITS.
| this city Miss Carr was frequently dispatched
| ON pyramids, and it was viii absent on one o.
these that she met her husband and he became
| enamored OF her.
Two weeks ago they became acquainted, afte
frequent meetings at the grocery, Seventh an
Madison streets, aud shortly thereafter the harl
Of the young lady was asked and promised il
marriage, she, no doubt, thinking it was ia
preferable to become an "old mans darlin
| rather than young mans slave"
After the ceremony had been concluded, yes
| terday the welded couple returned by ii
| train, and last night reception was given, whe
J smiles wreathed the benign countenance Of IL
tender husband and his heart beat as joyous
as in his earlier years. Mlas Carr is Mrs. Con
} fort now and Comfort is. comforted thereby.

"What can't be cured must be endured" says the

the end of their days they choose, but as It is not
supposed that any rational being prefers physical
torment to ease and health the probability ia that If
all sufferers from indigestion were convinced that
an absolute, infallibe remedy for their compliant
existed, they would with one accord resort 70 1t.
We most emphatically declare that such a remedy
does exist and that It's name is Hostetters Stomach

Mr.. Keene, shrewed and thrifty farmer Of
Allenborough, owned large flock OF sheep and
one autumn when it came housing time, he was
greatly annoyed upon missing number Of his
finest muttons, among them three or four weth-
ers which he had raised and fattened for his own
table. He was sure it was not the work OF dogs
and the most he could do was to await further
Developments.
On the following spring, when his sheep were
turned out to pasture, he instituted careful
watch, and ere long he detected Tom Stickney
q neighboring farmer, in the act OF pilfering q
sheep; but he made no noise sbout 1t at the time
Stickney was man well TO do, and keene die
not care to expose him.
Autumn came again. and upon counting NJ
his flock Mr.. Heene found eight sheep missing
He made out bill in due form TO Thomas Stick
ney for the eight sheep, and presented it. Stick
ney choked and stammered but did not bach
down. Like prudent man he paid the bill and
pocketed the receipt.
Another spring time came, ard MIR. Keenet

At the meeting OF the Delaware Historical So
ciety, Thursday evening, there WAS an average
attendance and much interest manifested.
There is a general determination on the part
OF the most active members to make the Society
the means of accomplishing an important work
in this community in seizing and preserving
many interesting historical data which now, in
the march of time, are slowly, but unless res
sued, irreyocably, passing away.
Much has already been accomplished. Dur
ing the past year, the Historical Society has ex-
perienced a marked revival By the energy of
some of its members, aided by the hberality Of
our citizens, it has secured commodious and at
trastive rooms, has made large additions to its
collection of books and relics, has increased its
membership, has had better attendance and
livelier interest at its meetings, has presented
some entertaining lectures and addresses to the
public, and has, in every way, shown itself de-
serving Of the support and corporation Of the
citizens of the State Of Delaware.
This State is rich in materials for history, es
pecally in the earlier period Of our national life
Many distinguished citizens thereof have reflecte'
honor upon this community, and are worthy o
memorial tributes at our hands.
1t is proposed by the Historical Society durin
the coming year to take systematic measures TO
collecting and publishing the State records an
documents, for gathering the materials for tn
biography of our distinguished statesmen, jul
lists dvines, physicians and mechanics, and 70
the collection and preservation of histories
relics Committees have been appointed fC
these various purposes, and it is proposed
several members of the Society to investigat
particular historical subjects and present the
results to the public in the form Of lectures al
published papers.
Many of these plans are not yet sufficient
shaped and decided upon to DO announced, b
active measures are in progress for their co
summation, and all the citizens of our State a
urged to cooperate and assist in this work fro
which all are to derive credit and advantage.

WILMINGTON, DEL.
Saturday Afternoon, Dec, "a,
A CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION AND THE
ETATK TAyEA

The Gazette has :" no especial objection to a
Constitutional Convention" Glad to hear ii.
Then can we not have one called, by this session
of the LegislAture3 1t thinks, however, that it
will cost the State " fifty or sixty thousand dol
lars" This is q totally extravaganza estimate
We are not mistaken, we think, in saying that
the annual expense Of the Legislature is about
e20, 600. This body sits three months, takes its
pay in gold and charges for Sundays, and days
when it is not In session. Being organized in
two houses, 1t has two sets of officers, has
two printed journals, and requires the lighting
and heating of two rooms We believe Con-
vention, Qf the members CAB could be reasona-
bly, limited could readily frame new and
satisfactory Constitution, in six weeks, at cost
Of not over one-sixth what the Gazette estimates,
namely $4,000. This would be a liberal amount.
The Gazette also wants to draw US into CON
troversy over the details of the State tax laws
and demands specifically what taxation the Com
NERcIAL would propose. We beg to remind Il
that it's own party is liz power, having two-thirdf
Of each house, in the Legislature. 1t is Our bus
mess to point out the fact that these taxes are
laid upon the industry and business of this city
and county and are therefore unequal, and 1t ii
the business Of the Gdzetes associates to provide
system which shall not contain these object
ionAble features. They have the majority and
the responsibility. Possessing the one let then
meet the other. We tell them their revenue sys
tenn is unequal and unfair-the people upor
whom it bears GENEROUSLY so declare it = and it il
for them to remedy the fault. 1t is an OLE
dodge to attempt to silence criticism by demand
ing that the critic provide something better
When the Republicans have q majority in tn
Legislature of course they will do this; till the
let the Gazette and it's party face their own mu
SIC and not ask us to provide them with ideas.

The whole of their splendid stock is TO be sold be-

OF over one hundred horses The difference in the
condition OF the feet is so great in Its favor that
would not be without 1t for ten times Its cost. 1t
should be properly applied to every horses hoof es-
pecially in the Summer when the horses feet are
always in contact with the heated earth, which
dries them up and they become hard and feverish,
which produces contraction, corns, quarter cracks

"Knee Sprung" and often from the pains in the

She rose from her seat, and
strolled up the garden path.
Jenny did not follow. She sat
on the step, lost in thought. The
riddle Of her friends life was at
last made clear to her. : She had
often wondered why Margaret, in
the midst of all her wealth and
luxury, should seem SO sad; she
wondered no longer now.
