LANCASTER DAILY IiqaLLIQENCR, FKipi.Y, AfAHOH 18, 1881 practice of medicine at Gap, Lancaster county. Returned te Philadelphia, and for several years previous te his death filled a prominent position in the employ of the Pennsylvania railroad company. Notwith standing lie took high rank as a physician, I always felt that his life was misdirected, that literature was the field in which nature fitted him te shine, and had he made a truer estimate of his own abilities and lived te reach a riper age, he would have ranked among the ablest thinkers and writers of his time. Within the last decade a revived inti macy sprang up between David and Jehn Housten, another cousin, who, for many years, was a permanent resident ei Phila delphia, that ripened into a close brotherly bend of affection, which terminated only with the death of Jehn, an event which took place in October, 1879. I bave thus hastily reviewed these branches of the Housten family and might here fittingly close, yet am tempted te philosephise. Of all the ceremonial out growths of human dcvclepenient, none marks se high a place in the graduations of ethical progress as the well asserted marriage tie, the tie in which all rites are but empty forms, the blend ing of two lives that judicial enact ments can neither intensify nor separate. Nene is se beautiful none se fruitful in domestic felicity none ap peals se strongly or assimilates se readi ly with the best elements of our nature none carry us se nearly te the outer rim of man's intelligence, whence we catch veiled glimpses of that higher, grainier, di viner 1'fc, that has been the dream of poet and philosopher of every age. The early associations (he agi cement te join fortunes the united htruirtrle te overcome difficulties the mutual de pendence the ever ready sympathy together tiding ever the dark days, and sharing equally the joys of a'l the sunny spots the entiic oneness of the desire for the future of the children ; all these may become but a part of the vaguely remem bered past; but the impress is left upon the soul, and shines upon the face. Here we have the fruition, the full measure of man's estate, the crowning of life. And why should it net be a glorious one '.' New when Hearing the end of the race, when the lengthening shadows mark the decline of the evening sun, they arc still side by side, surieundcd by their children, new all grown te manhood and womanhood, and in their turn deeply im mersed in the cues and responsibilities of middle life, repeating the same role, breast ing the same wave.", treading the same paths trodden by the parents in the lensr age, and yet every struggle, every step of the way rendered less difficult in conse quence of the example set and the earnest admonitions deeply implanted round the fireside 'in the early home life. Surely, this is the acme of human alleltnicnt. Be fore the lapse of another fifty years net only they, but perhaps the most of us pres ent, will have gene te that ' undiscovered country ;" but it is fair te presume, and we sincerely hope, that this aged pair may live te grace many recurring anniversa ries." The Peem. A letter was read from Mrs. Louise S. Housten, private secrclary.ef the Chicago publishing house of A. S. Barnes & Ce., expressing her regrets that she could net be present, and sending as her contiibutien te the occasion the following verses : Hick fifty years.

What gifts of" lame, -heit-live l" luine, or golden fleece Are worth these fifty year-, et plente-ms peace? The High Contracting Parties Many ether letters were read from rela tives aud invited guests who had net been able te attend, among them one funn Henry and Margaret Housten, of Ogdens burg. X. Y., who were mariied in Ireland in 1825, aud are new far past the golden milestone of " their wedding journey." Most notable among the features aud most distinguished among the guests of the occasion was the presence of Margaret Wilsen, 'who had been a bridesmaid at the first wedding, who came te this coun try ten years after the Houstons, and who, strangest of all, had never, (-ecu them since uutil yesterday. Slie knew they were here and they knew she was some where in this country. The indefatigable search of interested 'relatives found her out in Philadelphia, and made her the honored guest of the occasion. She is a very sprightly and intelligent old lady of about Te. aud recalled the first wedding very vividly te aeirclc of charmed listeners. The joy of the old-folks who had becn In timate in Ireland and had been parted se many years was one of the most interesting incidents of the celebration. After the literary exercises, the dinner was the order of the day, aud after dinner some of the guests left for their homes, but most of them lingered for several hours of delightful social interchange. In the"cventng the guests and neighbors gathered te witness tu cxliibitiomef parlor magic and sleight-of-hand performance given in his usual successful and wonder ful manner by the accomplished Prof. Lip Lip pett of this city. It was well nigh the end of the ' happy day" when the com pany separated. Mr. David Housten is still a man of vigorous health, clear aud strong mental powers, and with the exception of a slight deafness, is in full possession of all the well-developed faculties which have made him a mau of mark and the progen itor of a vigorous stock. His geed wife, mere enfeebled in body, leans en him as she has leaut for fifty years, trustful and loving, waiting the call for their separa tion in the happy hops that they cannot long be sundered. Mr. Housten's has been a busy and useful life, a centre of healthful influences, the waves from which have widened into theemmunity apd which will be trans mitted te generations yet unborn. Less concerned about idle honors at the hands of a fickle populace thau for harmonious development of character and the careful training of geed men and women, he has been less conspicuous in public life than for these domestic virtues which arc the saver of our society, our churches and .the state. A man of judicious reading, of stern integrity of character, of most, genial so cial parts, of uncompromisingly orthodox religions faith, no higher praise can be given of any citizen than can be fairly said of him that he is a geed citizen, a geed neighbor, a geed husband and father, a geed Christian and a geed man. Anincident which he related yesterday, among the many charmingrcminiscencesef his life that ought te be permanently fixed as part of our local history, was one that in conclusion of this article may be cited as most aptly characterizing the subject of it. The erratic and jrcrsatile Reuben Chambers, editor, publisher and manual printer of the Bethania Palladium, next deer neighbor te Mr. Housten for many years, 'and, as he styled him, "a rank atheist," would often "'burst in " upon him with questions about the Bible, which Chambers intended should perplex Mr. Housten for a ready answer, though he well knew that he could never shake his faith in that blessed Boek which Cham bers said was "all lies" and Mr. Housten stoutly averred "hadn't a lie in it." Said Chambers : " New, David, I can prove te you that it lies. Fer it says one place Moses was buried here, in an ether place there and in another that he lay there In two of the places your Bible must lie." " Fer a moment," says Mr. Housten, in his bread Scotch Irish, " I was struck dumb, but I believe the Almighty put the answer into my mouth. I said : ' Sec here Reuben Cham bers, suppose some stranger would come here long time afterwards te find where some dead man lay who had been buried here. He would meet you and you'd tell him he was buried in Bethania. He'd come along and inquire of Jee Bare foot and he'd tell him in Jacksonville ; aud he'd ask me and I'd say Puddingtewn, aud he'd go away thinking what liars two of these men must be." Chambers was silenced if net converted. COLUMBIA NEWS. OUi: KKGULAR CORRESPONDENCE. The weather te-day continues threat ening. Teny Denicr's company left here at eight o'clock this morning.

It appears that Mr. Cassell and a hired man had driven the colt, unharnessed, te Landis ville, where they were offered at public sale, but were withdrawn en account of the inadequacy of the prices offered for them.

He is Prosecuted for an old Beard BUI. Last evening Billy Andrews' lady min strels appeared in the opera house te an audience which represented ab'eut $20, There were four women and five men iu the cempauy. There was no first part, but the cl liferent people appeared in their specialities, several sketches were passably well acted, but the show was for the most part peer. The costumes were net at all rich, most of the patty appearing in their street drcsr.es. About 0 o'clock and before the show commenced, Andrews was arrested by Officer Cramer, en a warrant issued by Alderman Barr, en complaint of Geerge W. Eaby, for an old beard bill contracted a little mere thau three years age. The complaint charges false pretense and ab sconding without paying his beard. Ciamcr having te go ou duty at the mayor's office, handed Andrews ever te Helman, who took him te the station house and was about te lock him up when the turnkey suggested that the man be given a chance te get bail. He get Chas. Bitner, who was taken as bail iu $200 by Alderman MeCouemy fpr Andrews's ap pcarauec before Alderman Barr at 9J a. m. te-day. A hearing was had before Alderman Barr at 10 o'clock this morning, and the testimony of Mr. Eaby, the prosecutor, was te the effect that" Andrews and his troupe, then plajing a variety show at Rethwciler's hall, had bearded for several weeks at the Serrel Herse hotel, of which Mr. Eaby was then proprietor, and that Andrews made himself responsible for the beard ; tb.it he paid from time te time, but when the troupe left thcre was a balance of $48 un paid ; tmt he once afterwards leccived from Andrews $10 en account, and has received from him nothing since. That he made from time te time efforts te dis cover the whereabouts of Audrcws, but could net find him Fer the defence Mr. Andrews was called and testified that he paid Mr. Eaby from day te day the beard of the mcu in his employ ; that when he could no longer get a license te give performances, he paid Mr. Eaby alrj he owed him, told him he would no longer be responsible for the beard of his men, and he himself went te beard at the Plew tavern: that he never made any false pretense te Mr.Eaby ; that he did net abscond ; that he is a citizen of Pennsylvania, and has ever since the date of the alleged debt resided iu Philadelphia, though at times his professional engage ments took him outside the limits of the state. B. F. Davis, esq,, counsel for Andrews, asked that he be discharged, first because there was net a particle of evidence show ing cither false pretence or an intention te defraud an inn-keeper; and secondly, that if the eifeucc had been committed, the statute of limitation cuts it out, as it was committed mere than two years age. B. F. Ehleman, esq., Mr. Eaby's coun sel argued that a prima facie case had bem made out. Tfiat Audrcws had obtained beaid for his men by premising te pay the same, that he had absconded without pay ing, aud, that his abseucc. from the state deprived him of the right te put in the plea of limitation. The alderman demanded Mr. Andrews te furnish bail in the sum of $209 te answer at court, informing him at the same time that he would net accept as bail the gentleman who had entered bail for him last evening. Mr. Andrews said he was a stranger in this city and did net known where te leek for bail, whereupon the magistrate made out a commit ment and placed it in the hands of au officer. Mr. Andrews asked the officer te give him a little time te settle the matter ; aud we are told an arrangement was made whereby Andrew's was permitted te go te Ceium". bia where His company plays te-night, the officer going along with him. After the suit.breught by Mr. Eaby had been disposed of by Alderman Barr, Mr. Finney of the Grape hotel put in an ap pearance,and was about entering complaint against the whole troupe for non payment of their beard, when Andrews begged him net te de se telling him if he would accompany him te the hotel he would make everything right, and he did se by paying the bill.
