From Sirl.iin's Magazine. MR$. SARAH POLK. BY MRS. C. W. DENNISON. Mrs. Sarah Polk was born in Buckingham co., Virginia. ' When she was quite young, her father, Major William Childress, a very respectable an' wealthy gentleman, removed to Rutherford county, Tennessee. She had the misfortune in early life, to lose her mother ; and in the tender years of childhood, was much away from home. She was a pupil at the Moravian Institute, and remained under the care of this quiet and remarkable people, two years. Here, probably, were formed many of those distingui>hing traits of character, which have made her life, so far brilliant with examples of loveliness, worthy to be imitated by all her sex. Thrown, to some extent, upon her own resources, with no mother's guiding hand or approving smile, she early displayed an independence of mind, and a strength of will, joined to remarkable perseverance, which few. acquire until the ripeness of middle age. Soon alter the completion of her education, she returned from North Carolina, and took up her res idence at Murlreesborough, Term; where, at the age of nineteen, she was- married to Mr. Polk, he having been recently elected to the Legislature of that State. Mr. Polk was in 1525 chosen a member of Con gress, and out of the fourteen sessions he remained in Washington, Mrs. Polk was with him thirteen. Many who had then opportunities of knowing, and often meeting with her, testify to her uniform sweetness of disposition, her eminent piety, and the purity - of her iile and conversation. Mr. Polk being chairman of several important committees, his house was much frequented by persons of high social and political distinction ; hence his lady early made the acquaintance of many of the most illustrious characters of which our country can boast. In IS3B, when Mr. Polk was called to fill the office of Governor of Tennessee, Mrs. Polk exerted an excellent influence, even upon those members of the Legislature who were among her opponents, by her social qualifications, her amiability and her attention and devotion to the interests of her hus band ; and when, subsequently, he was elected to be President of the United States, she removed to Washington, remaining with him the four years of his term, with'the exception of the summer of '47, which she spent in Tennessee among her friends and acquaintances; In that exalted station, Mrs. Polk was a sweet exemplification of lowliness. She was as retiring, as'gentle, as though the public eye had never scanned her conduct, and the public tongue never sounded her praise. The leading feature in her character is con sistency. -Everywhere, and at all times, she is the same gentle, yet dignified woman and Christian. She possesses equanimity of temper in a remarkable degree ; and her penetrating mind can readily read the motives that influence those with whom she comes in contact. I he angel of benevolence hides itself in her heart, like the lily; that seeks the deep shelter of the valley, to bless unseen. Many has she assisted of whom the world knows not; for her charities fell as noiselessly as the snow. The trumpet voice of praise echoes them not, and the blessings of the poor is her only reward. Never was an applicant for the promotion of useful knowledge, or of any truly charitable work, sent from her doors unaided. To objects really worthy of support her donations were always mu nificent. Mrs. Polk, though as far removed as possible from what would be called a politician, has yet taken pains to make herself well informed on pub lic affairs. One~who knows her intimately says, there are not twenty days in a year, that not spend a certain time each day, in reading the leading.public journals, not those filled with trashy, “fashionable literature, but the solid productions of sterner intellects—the strong argumentative, philosophic matter, which none but strong and re flective minds can comprehend, none other than healthy brains digest. Though perfectly acquain ted with politics, yet with a rare judgment, and a comprehension of womanly delicacy, she seldom makes them a subject for conversation, and never takes sides in an objectionable manner. Whatever was identified with the public career of her his life, interested her. She made herself, on this account, lamiliar with much that would have burdened others. An anecdote is here in point. While Mr. Polk resided in Tennessee, a story was put in circulation, calculated to injure his rep utation as a public man. He was, at the time of which we speak, several hundred miles away from home. A gentleman well known, who was then editor of a political paper, eager to vindicate his fair fame, repaired to Mrs. Polk, and made known the circumstances to her. She instantly led him into her husband's private office, and selected differ ent journals and manuscripts, referred immediately to the page and paragraph containing her husband s non-participation in the plot imputed to him. These were soon published to the world.— Mr, Polk was then hurrying home. Rumors ol these accusations had reached him, and e was anxious to confute them, before they were gener ally received. As he was crossing one.of the rivers of Tennessee, he accidentally met with a paper, containing a complete refutation of the falsehood! In extreme, but delighted surprise, he turned to a friend, and remarked, “ Why ! this is indeed singu lar—who could have done it? No one but Sarah knew sc intimately my private affairs. 5 ’ Mrs. Polk possesses the faculty of making her self popular with all classes of people. None see her but to praise. The sweetness of her counten ance, radiant with the impress of mind, and the affectionate warmth of her reception, inspire the beholder with the feeling that she is an uncommon woman. I remember my own impression, when, in com pany with some friends, I visited the White House, on the occasion of a public levee. An immense crowd had assembled, for it was the first day of the new year. The foreign courts were well represen ted, in the imposing splendor of official costumes and uniforms shining with'gold. Many ladies beau tifully attired, stood near the wife of the President; but among them all, I should have selected her, as fitly representing, in person and manner, the digni ty and grace of the American female character.— Modest, yet commanding in appearance, I Jelt she was worthy of all the admiration which has been lavished upon her. She was affable, easy in her deportment, and most becomingly dressed. The thought involuntarily entered my mind, “You well become the high station which Providence has assigned you." Much has been said about the discontinuance of dancing in the White House during President Polk's administration. A company of ladies conversing with Mrs. Polk one day, alluded to the matter rather plainly. “ Why,” said she, in reply to a question indirect ly put to her on the subject, “/ would not dance in the President's house, would you?'’ This silenced them. They here, at once, struck with the propriety-of an answer, so delicately inti mating that the public ball room, or the private drawing room, were much more suitable places for such pleasures, than the residence of the chief mag istrate of the nation. Her religious views were extremely liberal.— They commend themselves, in the loveliness oJ their charity, even to those who do not coincide with her. There is a perfectness in her character, a freedom from austerity and bigotry, that speaks louder than the most untiring efforts put forth by many to reform the erring. She was always regular irther attendance on the ministrations of her pastor, while in Washington. Those who were members with her, and by whom she was recognized as a true Christian, testify to the uniformity of her example, her affectionate in terest in their welfare and her untiring solicitude for the prosperity of the holy cause, in which'she has for so many years been engaged. Her taking leave of the church was mournful, yet tenderly solemn.' The elements of the holy communion were administered to her, amid the si lent weeping of gathered friends, waiting to bid her farewell. 'lt was an impressive sqene ; few words were spoken, and those were uttered in the tremulous tones of grief, but the many prayers for her welfare, silently breathed by the sympathizing communicants blended into one, as on the wings of love and faith they were wafted before the Eternal. I have but faintly limned her virtues; suffice it to say that she is respected and loved by thousands who have never seen her. Her name has always been associated with good and holy things. As a wife, a benefactress, a friend, she is a mod*! for every woman to imitate, whether of exalted or lowly estate. Her life has been unmarked by sor row, until the bereavement which has so lately af flicted her. Existence cannot seem so joyous to her now, since that dark hour. But she has ar. arm where on to lean; an Almighty presence overshadows her path, to guide her. till the dawn of a purer day ushers her into the better land, where dwell her richest treasures. • • Remarks of Mr. Meek On the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad bill —in the House of Representatives, Jan. 31, ISSU. Mr. Speaker: — l have watched the progress of this bill, now before us, with mingled feelings of grief and indignation: nor do I now rise to address the House in opposition to its progress, with any hope of arresting it. No sir, I have seen too much legislation to hope for any such result. I have learned, by painful experience, that there is no re sisting a measure of this kind when backed by cor poration power. But I must express my total dis sent to its passage, and representing as I do a plain unsophisticated democratic constituency, I dare not suffer the passage of a bill so monstrous in its pro visions, without speaking out my disapprobation in the most unmistakeable language. I cannot disguise the fact, that my own heart beats more faintly—my high expectations of suc cessful legislation now drag in the dust—all my hopes quail, and I am wounded for the cause of my best devotions—the triumph of sound democratic principles. How is it sir, that we promise so much at home, and yet do so little when here, that is re ally democratic ? Are we not continually derid ing our whig opponents with the meanest subser viency to incorporation privilege—with the most abject devotion to wealth and its usurped preroga tives—with being the party who are always readv to confer privilege to the lew, while we claim to be the devotees of principles known only by this motto, “equal and exact justice to all men—exclu sive privileges to none V’ I should not have said a word on the subject, but that I wish to bear testimony to the soundness of our people at home and their honest adherence to They send us here with right views, but alas, we do not stay right; and our deceived and betrayed constituents are still left to wonder why it is so—why they elect the majority of members to this House charged with the cause of their rights and principles, and yet, whig principles always pre vail. It is with amazement, I see democrats in this House, wiljing to father a responsibility near akin to that assumed by those who inflicted upon the abused people of the Commonwealth the defunct Bank of the United States—a deep, damning, dark deed, that involved millions of money, and brought ruin upon thousands of innocent and confiding peo ple. The same arguments used now, were used to se cure the passage of that obnoxious measure—the case of poor widows, orphans, retired business men in their old days—the cruelty of robbing them of their only hope—their all—by cutting down the Bank at a stroke! We were then told of its sound ness and utility!—of its solvency—but the need of time to settle up its business. In vain did the friends of right measures, urge the dangerous mag nitude of the mammoth corporation—its’unwieidy debts, and corrupting influences—the inevitable ruin it would sooner or later bring upon the State. All was nothing (with men of like passions with us,) when brought in contact with the means and ap pliances of the Bank—and its friends; But sir, the day of doom came—the day of which we had been again and again premonished, and a fearful crash it was! We heard wailings and ruin through the whole length of the land. Then came the Bankrupt Law and swept away 450 millions of the debts due by those bank robbers, to a plundered people! Where now is the man who dare avow himself a friend of that foul deed of legislation, and yet ask the people to support him for any office in their gift? . But look at this bill before us. Two years ago this company l were here asking us to incorporate eight or ten millions of debt as preferred stock. We refused it that privilege. It now' comes, and asks us to suspend for 20 whole years the operation of our collection law’s, while it acknowledges over -sixteen millions of liability! How comes all this to pass? Two years since it was involved, we are told, in a debt-of ten or eleveq millions. It has%- creased to between sixteen and seventeen millions. The officers of this company have grown rich, built palaces, and ride as nabobs through the land; they have paid no debts—no sir; they have increased them vastly. Sir, did you ever know, or read ol any people in their corporate capacity, paying a debt ol this size? Never, sir; "but in the case ol our own noble Union. Whether she will be able to pay again, remains to be seen. With this corporation, I hold it is impossible that ever it should pay its debts. The road is one hun dred miles long, and cost $16,325,032 ; each mile, therefore, cost $103,250, and must, at least, yield an annual income of $lO,OOO for interest, besides the cost of repairs, management, &c. This it can not do: no sane man will believe that it can possi bly subsist any longer than it can borrow money. Sir, dare any man in this Commonw’ealth, in his private capacitj, come and ask us thus to rtep in between him and his creditors? No sir, no- such an application w’ould be scouted from this hall!— Well do I remember the man with the red shirt, who, with many other hard working men, had set tled upon a tract ol what they thought to be vacant land; after years of toil, sacrifice and patient endu rance of privation; when they thought themselves in possession of homes for their declining years, a British subject sued upon them a writ of ejectment. They preferred their cause to this body, and asked us to interpose the shield of our protection. Were they heard? no sir-., the Constitution was in oui way. Poor fellows! we eould do nothing for them! CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 19, 1850. they were not a corporation. “Alas! poor Yorick!" Sir, we hear, with the deepest emotion, of the threatened rupture of our holy Union; with dismay portrayed upon every face, the bare possibility of such a catastrophe is spoken of—one lays his finger pon his mou th, and dumb with amazement, e he.hears the fearful and portentous word “DISU- pronounced as the death knell of his coun try s glory. His country* aye, the country of des tiny; the glory of all lands; the beacon light of the benighted, down-trodden, oppressed, and injured ol all the nations; the country to which we invite the hungry, homeless and persecuted of every clime to come, find an asylum in the “land of the free and the home of the brave.” And yet sir, we, by our profligate legislation, are likely soon to make it but an empty name, a shadow—a skeleton only will be jeft to the people, if we continue thus to rob them, for the benefit of soulless corporations. Sir, we shall hear- of this bill again, when we come to elect a governor or president. The whigs will hurl it upon us as the party in the majority, and having the power to prevent such legislation. We profess to hold the best—the only good prin ciples upon which to administer a republican gov ernment, and urge men to sustain us by arguments addressed co their hopes and fears, their rights and liberties, and yet disappoint all and betray our party. In the name sir, of the democratic party and its principles—of my constituents of Centre county and of the constitution which I have sworn to sus tain, I protest against the passage of this bill. Remarks df Rev. J. A. Devinney, or Carlisle, Made in the late Education Convention , upon the res olution in regard to Normal Schools. Mr. Deyinsey said: The precise number of normal schools to be recommended to the legisla ture, produced considerable discussion in commit tee; and we felt all the embarrassment upon that subject that our friend from Northampton [Mr. McCartney] discovers. It had not escaped our no tice, that the convention had shown itself diffident in entertaining any proposition which foreshadow large expenditures. And this conservative feature gives the convention strong claims upon the public regard. From the very first, it has encouraged no tendencies to extravagance. Assembled from every district of state, the members seem impressed with the two leading thoughts—the apparent failure of a good system of free schools to administer itself,- and the importance of giving that system a longer trial under better circumstances. Accordingly,, utopian schemes have found no inviting reception among us, indeed none have been presented We have met as friends, our sessions have been harmo nious, and our aim appears to be to the attainment of such results as will favorably influence the in terests we represent. • Acting under these motives, we deemed it advi sable to proceed with moderation, thence the res olution advises the establishment of only tu-o state normal schools. This measure being somewhat new to Pennsylvania, it simply asks a fair, experi ment. Let the experiment be conducted on a reasonably extended scale, and if it proves a failure, it will be easy to retract, and if it succeeds, our successors can provide lor its enlargement. Grant us these two institutions, ably conducted, and well attended by candidates lor matured qualifications in a noble art; and when those accomplished in structors sl&ll have returned to their respective neighborhoods, and satisfied the friends of education that the institutions themselves are worthy of con fidence, common school keeping will become a profession, and normal schools will multiply to any extent the public wants may require. Their es tablishment will be as natural and necessary as the establishment of the primary district schools. But if we recommend their erection in every county in tiie state, we may thwart the whole affair, ami by attempting too much, accomplish really nothing. It has been objected, that with only two normal schools, located either at the centre or the extremi ties of the state, it will be inconvenient and ex pensive for the teachers to attend them. I admit the truth of the objection, but the proposed substi tute does not obviate the difficulty. Teachers would find it both expensive and inconvenient to come from the remote parts of each coun’y and attend upon the schools located in each county town; and even granting that the expense would be less, it must not be forgotten the classes would be too small to secure the services of cbm petent teachers and instructors. But the strong answer to the objection lies in the fact that school keeping is to become a profession whose respecta bility and emoluments will justify some outlay in the acquisition of suitable qualifications. The other learned prolessions labor under precisely the same difficulty. After a class of young men have spent five or six years at college far from their homes, they occupy two or three more in reading medicine, theology, or law, in some institution char tered for the purpose—arid all without a murmur. No one would employ, as a safe physician, or an able counseller, the young bachelor of arts with his honors fresh upon him ; apd is it right that of all crafts and trades, school keeping alone may be subject to no law but the caprice and temperament of the teacher? Can any person, who knows a little, teach a common school ? If this opinion prevails, normal schools will gradually correct it. They are not intended to teach directly all the citizens. They begin with educated men and women, and impart to them—not general know ledge, for this must have been obtained previously —but the very best plan of communicating to others what they know themselves, and the wisest method of disciplining a school. But I must not consume time an explaining what is obvious already. I hope the resolution will pass without amendment. ■. Circumstantial Evidence. The Washington (Pa.) Examiner, a few weeks since, gave an account of an affair, which occur red some years ago in that vicinity, and which is .another strong addition to the mass of objections against the reception of circumstantial evidence in capital cases. Two gentlemen, named Cooper and Long, whose families resided in the neighborhood of Washing ton, had been absent for some time in Ohio, They returned together in a -‘jumper," as far as Wheel ing, ai*d there spent the night. They arose before daylight in the morning, for the purpose of mak ing an early’ start for home. While Long was “hitching up' 5 the horse, Cooper made his disap pearance. Long looked in vain for his absent friend—no person had seen him. and he could not be found! Supposing that Cooper had come across some neighborhood friend in Market, and had gone home with him, Long left Wheeling, alone. But Cooper did not reach home ; and when Long rela ted the circumstances to the Iriends of the tormer, they very naturally supposed that he had been murdered by some unknown person or persons at Wheeling, who wished to obtain possession of his money. Diligent search was immediately com menced, but without success. The impression then became general that Long was the murderer! Some weeks alterwards, the body ot a dead man was lound floating in the Ohio river, several miles below Wheeling. It was taken ashore, a coroner's inquest held, but not being identified was buried. The friends of Cooper seeing an account of The inquest, in the papers, hastened to the place and had the body disinterred. After a careful ex amination, they arrived at the unanimous conclu sion that the body found was that of the long-lost Coopep! The shape of the body, the mould of the face, the color of the hair, and even the clothes were all Coopers. And to complete the identifica tion, there was a large scar on one of the legs of the corps, which removed all doubts from the minds of Coopers friends. They had the body ta ken home, and regularly interred. The friends put on the habiliments of mourning. Letters of ad ministration were taken out, and the temporal af fairs oi the murdered man were settled ! Long was pronounced a murderer by every one, and no person of respectability would longer asso ciate with him. A warrant was made out for his arrest, a regular indictment lor wilful murder was found by the grand jury of Washington county, and Long was committed to prison to await his trial for the most diabolical of all crimes! Owing, however, to some informality in the receipt of the requisition of the Governor ol Virginia, Long was set at liberty. But still the eyes of the old and young were upon him, and he was forsaken and despised by all! Months passed away, but the excitement in re gard to the murder did not in the lea»t abate. At « THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD.” Buchanan. length a letter was received from an unknown per_ son in Indiana, by the friends of Cooper, stating that the man who was supposed to have been mur dered, resided in that State. But supposing this to be a trick on the part of Long, to operate in his favor, no attention was paid to it. Shortly alter wards a letter was received from the murdered man himself! This, however, did not satisfy the friends of Cooper that Long was innocent. They believed it was a forgery; and this belief was not changed until the murdered man stood before them—not a spiritual apparition, like the ghost of the murdered Dane—but a real, corporeal existence, the true, bona fide, identical, long-lost Cooper! Had it not been for the informality above alluded to, no doubt Long would have suffered death upon the scaffold! Fat Meii. The following is an extract from the lectures of Rev. liEN*nT Giles, now going through the press of Messrs. Ticknor, Reed & Fields, Boston : There is something cordial in a fat man. Every body likes him, and he likes every body. Your Ishmaelites are, in truth, a bare-boned race: a lank tribe are they—all skeleton and bile. Food does a fat man good; it clings to him, it fructifies upon him; he swells nobly out, and fills a generous space in life. He is a living, walking specimen of gratitude to the bounty of the earth, and the fulness thereof; an incarnate testimony against the vanity of care, a radiant manifestation of the wisdom of good humor. A lat man, therefore, almost in vir tue of being a fat man, is per sc a popular man ; and commonly he deserves his popularity. In a crowded vehicle the fattest man will ever be the first to jnake room. Indeed, he seems half sorry lor his size, lest it be in the way of others; but others would not have him less than he is, for his humanity is usually commensurate with his bulk. A fat man has abundance of rich juices. The hinges ol his system are well oiled; the springs of his being are noiseless; and so he goes his way ie joicing in full contentment and placidity; * * * A fat man feels his position solid in the world; he knows his being is cognizable; he knows he has a marked place in the universe, and that he need’ take no extraordinary pains to advertise mankind that he is among them: he knows that he is in no danger of being overlooked. Your thin man is un certain, and therefore he is uneasy. He may van ish any hour into nothing; already he is almost a shadow, ami hence it is, that he uses such laborious efforts to convince you of his existence, to persuade you that he is actually something; that he is more than a nonentity; that he is a positive substance as well as his corpulent fellow creature. * * * It really does take a deal of wrong io make one hate a fat man; and if we are not always so cordial to a thin man as we ought to be, Chris tian charity should take into account the force of prejudice which we have to overcome against his thinness. A fat man is the nearest to that most perfect of figures, a mathematical sphere; a thin man to that most limited of conceivable dimen sions, a simple line. A fat man is a being of har monious volume, and holds relation to the material universe in every direction; a thin man, in hiet, is but the continuation of a point. Secret Prayer Rewarded Openly When Jacob and Esau met—on the one side the shaggy chieftain with Iris Jour hundred swordsmen, and on the other side the limping shepherd with his caravan of children and cattle—a flock of sheep approaching a band of wolves; when the patriarch took his staff in his hand and stepped forward to meet the embattled company, and the anxious retinue awaited the issue, they saw the tear start into the rough huntsman's eye—they saw the sword drop Irom Esau's hand—they saw £us brawny arms round Jacob's neck--they saw in the red savage a sudden and unlooked-for brother. They saw the result, but they had not seen the prelude which led to it. They had not been with Jacob at the Jabbok the night before. They had not viewed his agony and heard his prayer; 'and though they noticed the halting limb, they did not know the victory-whose token it was. They saw the pa triarch, the husband and the father; but they knew not that he was a prince with God, and had gained Esau's heart from Him who has ail hearts in his hand. The halting thigh and the pacified foe were obvious; but the wrestling overnight was unknown. The reward was open, but the prayer was secret.— Mount of Olives. Hays or Appeal.

Do llkpout. that i hey have carefully examined the account of John K. SUruder. Ksq.. late Treasurer of Lancaster County, iu account with said County, aud find a balance in his bauds, on the 7th day of January. ISSO. for Coun ty purposes, of twenty-one thuiwunl eight hundred aud seveuty-three dollars and sixty-live aud a half cents, say $21,873 05j We also find. at the same elate, a balance of State appropriation for Common School purposes iu hi* bauds, of ill roe hundred and sixty-three dollars and six corns, say 363 00 Making the aggregate amount in his hands, twenty-two thuusmd two hundred and thirty-six dollars and seventy-one and a half cents, for which amount he has this day produced the receipt of Miller Fraim the present Treasurer of the County, say $22,236 71} We also tind that the Collectors of the following township' have paid and settled olf their duplicates for the year 1849. viz: Brecknock. Carnarvon. West Co calico. Colerain. Conestoga. Conoy, Elizabeth. West Hcmptield. Hast Lampeter. West Lampeter, Lancaster. I’eun. Ilapho and Strasburp. •, At the same date we find the duplicates of the Col lectors of Conoy. West Lari. Mountjoy and Strasburp Borough for 1848. and of West Donegal and Strasburp Borough for'lB47. remaining unsettled. Although the aggregate .amount ot outstanding taxes compares favorably with that of last year, we regret to find at the above date, unsettled balances due the County for Che years IS4S and 1547 ; and. in justice to the punctual tax : payers of the County, we feel con strained to protest against such practice of Collectors, permitting their duplicates of oue or even two years previous to remain uu.-cttled at the time of auditing the annual accounts ; we are especially at a time like the present, when the financial condition of the County requires a considerable portion of such taxes punctu ally paid into the County Treasury, to be assessed for and appropriated to the payment of interest on Loans due by County. The County Commissioners orTreas urer having the means of correcting this evil in their hands, the Auditor.- feel thenw.dves so strongly justified in refusing to allow a credit to the Treasurer in the ad justment of his account for unsettled balances of du plicates of previous years, for which a credit had al ready been given, at a former settlement of the .County accounts, that the majority of the undersigned, con tinuing in officn. have resolved, with the approbation of the honorable Court, to adopt such course at the next adjustment of the Treasurer's accuunt. During the year 1849. three townships have drawn their proportional share of the State Appropriation for Common School purposes, from the County Treasury, still leaving a balance, as above stated, uncalled for.— Since, by an Act of the LcgiMature. the adoption of the C ommon School system has become general throughout the County, the Lalanee of the appropriation should come iu possession of those districts which are still entitled to their shares, by their drawing it from ihe County Treasury, thus putting an end to its longer •• existence.” which has been one of continued ••decline” from its infancy, through the frequent "consumptive attacks” to which it was subjected by the commissions thereon allowed to each successive County Treasurer, during the •• long term of its existence ” amongst us. We have also examined the account of William Gor recht. Esq.. Treasurer of the Poor and House of Em ployment of Lancaster County, and find the same cor rect as presented to us. with a balance in his hands of aixty-two dollars and twenty-four cents. $62 24 Witness'our hands at the Commissioners’ Office of Lancaster County, this 23d day of January, X.
