During the lot sales, or distribution of
lots, Judge Lucas became the pOssessor of
the old mill pond above town on Evitt's
run. 1t is not stated whether it was regis
tered as a residence or business lot,-proba-
bly, the latter, for the Judge says he will
farm it for frogs. There was more senti-
ment than percentument in the acquisition
of the old mill pond. We recall the days
of our youth, when we sat upon the banks
of this old fresh water pond-fringed with
wild flowers and alive with the snipe and
fy-up-the creek-and fished for the cat with
niue lives aud the slippery eel that we were
afraid to take from the hook, and watched
the lazy skillpot disport himself on project
ing rock or restful log, and the skeeter on
the placid waters that reflected the umbra-
geous tree, the blue sky and heecy cloud.
We reckon when Judge L. on the Seryia
goes on old Ocean he'll be more at sea than
when he bought the old pond, and will
ponder over the days gone by at altoona, .
near by, and contrast the old fresh water
pond of his early remembrance and of his
purchase, and the Salt pond DER whose bos-
ON he Is borne to a foreign shore, and we
hope he will give rein to his poetic fancy
let Pegasus outstrip the storm and carry
thunder and lightning as Of old, and kick
HelicOn if he wants to.

We believe our friend, Postmaster Hig-
inbothau is entitled TO the credit of sue
cessfully inviting 10 our town last week the
biggest and clever as bigl delegation Of
lot buyers. Fine men, all of them-genial
and generous and wide awake, energetic
aud business all over; and we believe they
went to their Pennsylvania homes impress
cd with the beauty Of our country, inspired
by its breczes aud lbs prospects, and it, de-
STABILITY for business OF other purposes. -
We should like 20 make special mention OF
each one Of them, but our space does not
admit Of that; but we will remark upon
the fact of one of them, Mr.. Gummert, a
very agreeable young gentleman, who has
the distinction Of being a relative Of Elk
Presiden, Jefferson Davis ON the fathers
side and Of Gen. b. +. Butler on the moth
er's side. Among these Pennsylvania
friends Of Mr. lliginbo;ham was the veneer
able Mr.. Chatleu-oue of the oldest Masons
of the State, and possessing the vivacity Of
spirit and step Of youth. We thank cur
friend Higinbotham for having given US an
opportunity to meet these clever friends
from the old Keystone State.

The doors of Postmaster HiginbOtham's
beautiful country home were opened wide
as the gates of gospel grace to his Pennsyl-
vania friends He was disappointed-he
expected forty, at least, but only twenty
eight were with him one night twenty -four
the next and twenty-five the next, and they
sat comfortably loose in his ten four-seat
carriages that he feared would be made
ouate. Our friend HiginbOtham deserved
the credit of the exceptionally fine delega-
ton of Pean-ylyauians from his former
home-mcu of character, Of business and
of generous habits as well as impulses.
