March !

The best thing for health and comfort
would be put march on ice. We must en-
dure it for the usual thirty-one days, and it
may spoil on our hands, just like February,
unless it is thoroughly chilled at the start.
But if it keeps as fresh us its first day, it
will do. 1t is very agreeable now-not too
fresh, but just fresh-which, paradoxically,
accounts for its staleness. We are likely to
have all sorts Of weather during this month,
As we are sure to have all sorts of festvelS
and fasts. st. Patrick's Day, with. prob;t-
bly,, its horrors eliminated, Passion Week.
with Maund Thursday and Good Friday.
Easter Sunday, and, finally, the three sue
ceeding days of the Easter festival, afford
variety enough in the way of special days,
and give TO the second half of March this
year Il peculiarly significant charactrr.-
Ecclesiastical and theatrical events. niety
and pleasure, fast and festival grief and
gladness, are all crowded into it, and the
weather is likely To keep pace with the
vicisSitudeS of human affairs March is
like 4 youth who is half way between child
and man, with two voices, like orator Puff.
y heavy bass tone one minute, coming with
Il SuddenesS which almost takes away ones
breath, and 4 delcite feminine sound the
next minute, are types of the quick changes
which occur in the sky in March. Whee,l-
ling and bullying, cutting and caresSins
this most capricious of months will land us
fairly amid the smiles and tears of April.
and Spring will really begin with E,Ster.

A Brilliant Wedding.

The pretty residence of MIR. and Mrs.
Henry Warner, nj Westamwell, near this
town, was the scene of an exceedingly pleas
ant affair, ON Thursday evening last, being
the occasion of the SolelnniZatun of the
marriage ceremony Of their amiable and
accomplished daughter, Sophie, to Mr..
Dexter Nj. Lee, worthy young farmer, son
Of John T. Lee, Esq, who also resides near
this place. Guests numbering, it is est
mated, over one hundred, had assembled at
the appointed hour. At precisely ten min
utes past seven o'clock, Miss Sophie, pref
tily attired in white, leaning on the arm OF
her bctrothed, entered the parlor, when the
Silken knot was tied hy the Rev. Vaughan
Smith, pastor of the Elkton NJ. L. Church,
of which both are members, and the happy
couple received the ongratulations of their
numerous friends.
The guests We're then summoned to the
dining room, where they partook Of the re-
fresh,nents bountifully provided, consisting
man could desire, such rs ice cream, cakes
of almost every description, tropical fruits,
apples, nuts, &c.
In the sitting room, tastefully arranged
by dcft fingers, were displayed the numer-
Gus presents for the bride. In our limited
space we can but briefly state that while
many of them We're elegant and costly, yet
they We're chiefly of a useful character, and
consisting OF silver china and glassware
ornaments for the parlor and ware for the
dining room with an endless array of OTHER
articles in general. Prominent among the
gifts, however, We're Il handsome family
Bible, presented by her father: Il pretty
chamber set, by her mother, and a costly
silver pitcher, by her brother
About 10 o'clock, the guests took leave Of
the bride and groom and the affable host
and hostess and repaired to their homes
1t was 4 very pleasant event: was enjoy
ed heartily by all, and will ever he cherished
in the grateful remembrance of those pres
ent. The happy couple have our sincere
wishes that they may have a pleasant and
prosperous voyage across lfe's raging main
and happy entrance into the blisSful coun
try on the other side. -.

Recovery of Stolen Property.

The person arrested in Elkton, last week,
OH suspicion of having stolen Il set of har
ness, and who gave the name of Thomas
Brown, proved to be Cowan Fury, of
Franklin township, Chester county, Pa
In consequence of information received.
Richard Wigtall, the owner of the harness,
who resides near Kimbleville, visited the
Jail, on Monday, and identified the harness,
which, together with 4 lot Of butter, had
been stolen from his premises, on the 18th
Of last September. Whereupon Fury was
released from custody. Fury is respectfully
connected, and at various times has fallen
heir to large sums of cash, but not being
gifted with much intellect, soon Squandered
it and is now in poor circumstances. He
asserts that the theft was committed by
another person, who sccreted the harness iii
a hole under his (Fury's) house, and who
fearing to offer it for sale himself, induced
Fury to do so, by promising him half the
proceeds and threatened to shoot him if he
divulged the matter. Mr.. Wigfall believing
Fury's story will avail himself of his testi-
mony in prosecuting the guilty party in
Chester county.

A Legend of Elk Ferry.

Away back in the history of this county,
when old John .Jawwert cantered over the
hills ana dales of Bohemia Manor, after his
cry Of huntin. hounds, " and left the ferry
in charge of female negroes fresh from he
coast OF Guinea, a murder was committed
in Elk Neck, under the following circum-
stances: one William Sarn, who, if we
have been correctly informed, was then
sheriff of the county, and lived ON the old
ferry farm, opposite Court House Point, in
Elk Neck had an unruly negro slave, that
lie confined in the Jail on Court House
Point. The negro, the story goes, es-
capped from the Jail one night, and swim
min. across the river, entered his masters
house and taking Il loaded gun with him
secreted himself in his masters woods
ing the ncgro's flight was discovered, and
forthwith his master and some of his friends
betook themselves to the woods, with the
view oi capturing him. In his search for
the fugitive. his master came near the place
Of his concealment, and the negro fired and
killed him, MS DioOu DGSlbtlteflllS tnt leaves
of holly bush that grew near where he
fell. The negro was captured and subse
quently executed, and, according to the
barbarous and inhuman custom that then
prevailed, his body was drawn and quar-
tered and part OF the ghastly remains eN-
posed to View on each side of the river
His head is said to have been placed upnn 4
gate post, near the old ferry house, on the
Elk Neck side of the river, where an old
lady, since dead, told our informant she
had seen it in her early life. The in>ignif-
cant holly bush has grown into a tree of
considerable size since that untoward &C.
currenCe, but, strange to say, its leaves are
still tlecked with red splotches that bear !.
strong resemblance to human gore.
On Saturday last, VIM. Mercy, Esq, of
Elk Neck, left Il branch of the said holly
tree at our office, where it may be seen by
those who are interested or curious enough
to investigate the subject.
