IN UHScl!i>h Act.

The resignation Of Col Joha G.
Freezo-Who was elected Il member OF
the Constitutional Convention from
COLUMBIA c0upty-in order to make
place in that distinguished body for
Hon. Charles Il Buckalew, is an act
that will recommend Col. Freeze to the
entire Democracy of Pennsylvania.
1t is an act of unselfish patriotism by
far too rare in these days Of lust after
place and power, and one that will!
stamp the Colonel as n man more dc.
voted TO the interests Of his State and
country than to his own personal or po-
litical welfare.
Mr.. Buckalew framed the bill under
which the convention was called into
existence, and it is therefore eminently
proper that he should participate in its
deliberations. He never asked for or
desired the nomination for Governor,
stating at the time that he would much
prefer seat in the body that would
shortly be called TO the important
work Of remodeling the Fundamental
law Of the State, 1t seemed to be neCes

Another disagreeable, not to say dis.
a5trous, aspect Of the horse disease be
gins to claim public attention, especially
on the part of the younger members of
society, both lads and lasSies. Here's
Winter at our very doors, snow falling
already, the time for sleighing almost
at hand and where are the horses? ?
What IS to be done in theway of dances
and suppers and where, oh! where will
the lovers find consolation. We venture
to predict that the N atrimonial market
will prove u dull one in the year 1878
unless this equine epidemic ceases and
allows the usual preliminary sleigh-rlde
lOve-making to go an. Who can count
the numbers of shy but earnest lovers
whose lips are locked between the four
walls ofa room, but who grow eloquent
and talk to the point as well, whilst glid-
| ing over the smooth surface of the snow,
gazing ever and anon into the bright
eyes beside them which rival the stars
o'erhead. Who can tell how many mait,-
| ems have softened under the influence
of the clear pure moonlight who under
other auspices had hardened their
hearts-perhap5 until too late. The God
of Love has no abier auXiliaries than
the moon and stars, the merry jingling
Of tho sleigh bells and the delicious
sense of comfort aud pleasure which is
afforded by the roiseless gliding ofthe
sleigh. over the frozen covering Of the
earth, and the want Of these latter will
keep many faithful hearts asundel
which else, would "beat as one.'
