TURNED UP AGAIN.—Some tone last Win ter or early in the spring we wrote an obitu ary notice on the death of Colonel Henry Douglas, of the Confederate States Army, a well-known graduate of Franklin and Marshall College of this city. Subse .quently we learned that the Colonel W:l5 alive and well, and had read our notice of his "shuffling off this mortal coil" with great glee and The war has since ended, and the Colonel, finding his "occupation gone" in that respect, has "ye sinned the plaeliek, of his profession, the law, to which he has added that of an agency for the sale and purchase of real estate in the Shenandoah Valley, at Winchester, Va. lie is a gentleman of ability and integrity, and will doubtless have his hands full 01 business. Sucre- , s attend hint. NVE have frequently spoken of the pleas ures of a visit to the quiet and beautiful vil lage of Litiz and its picturesque surround ings; and such pleasures are heightene,l, seems to us, when the company consists congenial spirits, ladies and gentlemen, whose sole object is to make tire visit of each other as agreeable and pleasant as possible. Well, just such a party as this proceeded to that village Wednesday afternoon, and rel ished the Copious shower of rain On tho which instead of dainpening tlll' anlor or enthusiasm of any one made all l'eul de refreshed, and better prepared to enjoy the festivities awaiting their arrival at the hotel of those princes of landlords, the Messrs. Lichtenthaler.

A beautiful promenade march was perMrtned, in which !wanly the whole company mil:. part.

Wedekind, for nearly three years past pas tor of St. John's Lutheran Church, this city tendered his resignation on Monday even ing last, which has been accepted. Ile Kati, we learn, received a call from St. James' Lutheran Church, in the city of New York, His resignation takes effect on the first of October, but he will officiate for the last time in St. John's Church on Sunday, the sth of October. At a meeting of the Church Council of St. John's Lutheran Church of this city, on the evening of the 13th inst., the ( 'onnuit tee to whom the resignation of Rev. Mr. Wede kind, as pastor of said congregation was re ferred, repo - hod the following, which were unanimously adopted: Wit EitEAs, Our pastor, Rev. A. ('. Wede kind, has placed his resignation in the hands 'of the Church Council of this congregation, in order to accept the call tendered him sonie weeks ago by the congregation of St. James, in the city of New York, therefore, Bes,dred, That whilst from the peculiar circumstances connected with the congre gation in New York, we feel it our duty to accept the resignation of our much loved and esteemed pastor, we cannot refrain from expressing our sincere regret that the pas toral relation formed less than three veers ago, and which has been attended with such blessed results, both temporal and spiritual, should be so soon severed. Resolved, That in his ministrations to this congregation we have always found Rev. ...Mr. Wedekind to be a sincere and earliest Christian, "instant in season and out of season" in the work of the Master, per forming all his pastoral duties with an eye single to the glory of t led and the best interests of the members of this congregation. Ever evin cing the spirit of Chri.-4, he been a fr]e.,l to all, his ,euerons nature .11..11 him to make sAcritices for those who little or no claim upon him. His loss to our congregation and the community generally will be deeply deplored by all who know him. Resolved, That this congregation is under special and deep obligations to Rev. Mr, Wedekind for his energetic and indefatiga ble exertions in raising the means to defray the onerous and oppressive debt under which it had been laboring since its organi zation in 1.853, and we are sure that no rem iniscence of his short labors in our midst will be more gratifying to him as well as ourselves, than that, on the first of April last, St. John's was able to say "we owe no man anything." Resolved, That i pur prayers for the welfare of our late pastor and his family, and for the success of the mission on which he is about to enter will follow him to his new charge. _flay the Great Head of the church abundantly bless and reward him for the good he has done among us, and may lle continue to smile upon and bless his labors more abundantly, until his work shall be done upon earth; and may he, when he shall be called upon to give an account of his stewardship receive the welcome plaudit: Well done, good and faithful servant; enter thou into the joys of thy Lord." Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be presented to Rev. Mr. Wedekind and family, and be also published in the city papers, Lulltertin Observe?' and Lidltc?•an and Missionary. PENNSYLVANIA P.

AN EARTHQUAKE.—QA Sunday after noon last, about 3 'o'clock; the shock of an earthquake was very distinctly and sensibly felt illithis city. The like of it was never before experienced in this vicinity. It sounded as if there had been a tremendous fall of some heavy body, and thin a rumb ling noise succeded C71.2i - ithqwjtEkl for fully one minute. All the buildings in' the city were more or less shaken, and persons on the streets imagined that the houses were tumbling down over their heads. At first it was supposed to have been an explosion of Dupont's Powder Mills at Wilmington r distant in a_straight line some fifty miles from here, but the ''shock - and its effects were too tremendous and lengthy to admit of it resulting from that. The shock was felt in different parts of the county. We confess our inability to comprehend or give any cause for this sudden convulsion of nature in this region. Our impression has alwaysbeen that earthquakes have been con fined generally to volcanic regions, but the ways of Providence are " past finding out.', A Second ,Sltock.---.Saine night, a few min utes before 11 o'clock, a second shock was experienced, but it was not so distinct or lengthy as that of the afternoon. LANCASTER HORSE MARKET, MONWLY, SEPTEMBER 18TH, 1865.—The trade in horses, both in the way of arrivals and sales, continues about the same as last week. Tom(.s.—The arrivals were 9 head to D. M.

SAD BEREA NT.—We regret to an nounce the death of Miss Rebecca C. Ma graw, naughtier of the I lon. Henry S. Ma graw, formerly State Treasurer of Pennsyl vania. We learn that she died on Tuesday noon last, after a brief ill ness, at her father's dully seat, near Port Deposit, Maryland. The deceased was a young lady of rare per sonal gifts and intellectual endowments. She was beloved by all who knew her, and her sudden death will occasion the deepest grief in a circle where her .presence was al- NV:IV, greeted with the tenderest affection. NO words of human consolation can lighten the sorrow that darkens the Household of her stricken family.

THE URI" or A ROASTINt; REPORTER.— The local reporter of one of our city ex changes, who has been ffering and swear ing ever since September began, gets off the following: There is a peculiarly oppressive and al-• together uncomfortable quality about this burning weather that we did not have dur ing the summer. It makes one feel as if he were totally•depraved, capable of becoming a Common Councilman, or a Mormon, or any other monstrous thing Which men mast shudder at anti gods condemn The mercury persists in keeping in the neighborhood of 90'.

SAVE Youn SEEDS.—Secure those already ripe, and make suitable provisions for the others. Few persons are fully aware of the superiority of seeds ripened front the best selected vegetables and flowers over the mixed lots obtained at the stores. Let a person try for a few years and save the largest and earliest pods of Lima beans from the most prolific vines, the largest corn from stalks with two ears, thelbest mellon, squash and other seed, and note the constant improvement rather than the two frequent degeneration of sorts. One row, or a part of a row of peas and beans, should always be marked off for seed, and none be picked from it until fully ripe. It is a too (.onm:on practice to save seed from what is left utter the faintly have eaten the earliest and lest. At the time of housing the vege tables, lay by the finest for seed, instead of depending upon the culls in the spring. The strings around the ears of sweet corn is a mark that they are not to be plucked green.

POBEIGN HUMBUG AND NATIVE. HoN- EsTv.—With all our cuteness, we are annu ally swindled by foreigi humbugs who palm themselves on us as medical men and university graduates. Mr. A.

"Brick" Pomeroy . gives the following • as his experience in getting mosquitoes intoxi cated. These "animiles" are remarkably . plentiful in this city and vicinity this sea- , son, more so than we ever knew them to be before, and, by reason of their affectionate habits, have well earned the appellation of " sticking closer thane brother." "Brick's" description of "Mosquitoes on a Bender" is inimitable, and without further prefatory remarks we give it to our readers entire: MOSQUITOES ON A BENDER. Night before last, in order to sleep, we placed a piece of raw beefsteak on a plate at the head of our bed. In the morning it was by the mosquitoes sucked as dry of blood as an old sponge, and our skin saved at least two thousand perforations. All about the room in the morning were mo squitoes, plethoric with blood, loaded till they could not fly. We killed a few, but the job was too sanguinary, so we left them to their feast. Last night, in order to get even with the serenading devils, we steeped half a pound of fresh beefsteak in some old rye whisky, and left it on a plate near the bed. Nothing like being hospitably . inclined. In ten minutes after the light was extinguished a swarm of these back-biting bill-posters made an advance movement, One of them caressed us sweetly on the nose—he sent in his bill—there was a slap—a diluted damn —a dead mosquito! Soon we heard a tre.. ntendous buzzing about the whiskey-soak ed beef. The entire mosquito family came singing in. and such an opera—good Lord deliver us! But they did not disturb us 1 with bites—we fell asleep to be awakened I in ten minutes by the worst mosquito con- I cert ever editor, mortal, denial, angel, divine, Dutchman or any other tiari listened to. We raised a light, and the greatest show of the season was there to be seen. Every mosquito was drunk as a. blind fiddler, and such an uproarious night as the long-billed whelps had, never was seen before this side of—xcla ! The worst antics! Some were playing circus on the plate.(toe big fellow, with a belly like Falstaff, full of blood and whisky, was da n cing Juba on the Bible, while a fat friend of his tribe lay on her back beating the devil's dream on an in visible tumborlne with one hind leg! Two more were wrestling on the foot-hoard of the bed, each with his bill stuck fast in the timber. Another wus tying the legs of our pants into a bow knot to tie about the neck of Anna Dickinson, which hangs against the wash-stand, while anotherred-stomach ed customer was trying to stand on his head in the wash-bowl. All over the room were drunken mosqui toes! One long bill, gaunt representative was trying to rant the mucilage bottle full of newspaper chippings. Another chap was drilling a hole threw a revolver handle and singing " My Mary Ann," while another was limping across the window sill in search of Ireslt air, to the agonizing tune of—tramp —tramp—tranip ! One little rant ofa skeet was trying to ,jam theeock out of Ben. But let's eye with a tooth brush, :is his picture mug beside that of Kidd the pirate and a few other thieves. Another drunken states , man of the mosquito family, reminding us of /,itch Chandler, was talking Bussian to a lot of drunken companions as they lay in a heap on a plate, while another one sat on the handle of our bowie knife, doubled up with cramp in the stomach, and trying to untie his tail with his bill, which seemed like Lincoln's back-bone When Anna Dick inson said it wanted stiffening. He was a sick looking skeeter, and (lied in three min utes after we saw hitt - 1,41er, or it, as the case may be. Two others took a bath in the ink stand. Another one with it hill like the devil's narrative was trying to wind our watch with a pen-wiper, while another had just died as le- wits sitting on the rim of a dish in the room, trying to chant—" Mother , I've come home to die !" (1- skeeter. A nice skeeter,but," 'twas a pity thee drank. - An old veteran with a pith full of iii(!ti and 'alf—blood and w hisky—sat on the table reading Les M iserables, while hilwife was under the stove trying to mend her broken wing with a limpsey tooth pick. She looked disgusted ! Another one combed Ins hair with a paper of pins ' tied a Mere of paper al/011( his neck, pasted a live cent in fernal revenue stamp on his rump, and died like a loyal citizen. His last words were— " Tell the traitors all around you," etc., etc. Another drunken scamp has just started out of the window for John 11. (tough, or a stomach pump. A worse behaved set of bummers we never saw. They have acted feartul. About two thousand lie abouldead, but sadness scemod iiot to break in upon their hilarious rioting upon blood and whis key. llal tt dozen of them set on our new hat playing draw poker, using worm lozen ges for checks, while one of the party got clean busted by making a fifty dollar blind good on it four flush. which didn't fill! lie will be apt to wear cotton socks next Win ter and keep away I'l,lll chisel COllO .

Six others were trying to hang one that looks like a Copperhead to the corner of A match safe, but as they were drunk and lie sober, it is not sate to bet on Ins being dang led. They have eaten Ow beef—drank the blood and whiskey—drilled the plate full of holes—and on the centre-table organized a Son of Malta lodge, using a live-cent shin plaster fit' blanket in the act entitled The Elevation of Man." Another red-bellied leader of the Miss Keeler family hail a battalion or drunken bummers on the edge of a spittoon watch ing him jaill a fill' overcoat into his left ear. Ile was foolish—foolish enough fora Brin dier t t eneral or a member of t'ongress. little cuss with black legs, CriIIISOIISIMIIIaCiI and di tultlejointed bill, was vomiting in 0 satin slipper, while Ins wife, a sickly tool:- int , lady of her tribe, was gnawing at the bed post, thinking it a bologna. Another one, evidently an old maid, sat under the sofa milking the cat, while her sister was crowding a pair of woolen drawers into her water-fall, singing in a subdued strain: " come ruSt is tills boS0111! . ' We have applied fora season ticket—front seat. Another one, with a certificate of mar riage over his head in the shape of a welt the size of a candle mold, was dancing a fandango with two mosquito virgin,: 00 a watch crystal, while :t deacon in one of their churches sat playing old sledge with a cork screw, to see which should go for a gin cock tail. An artistic delegate was standing on his head in a champagne tumbler, one hind leg run through his under jaw, while with the other he was pointing out the road to Richmond to a lot of skeels still drunker than himself, which were sitting dog fashion on the pillow. We should say iL was a gay party—quitely so! Talk about shows, concerts, dog tights, amputations, circuses, negro funerals, draw poker, sparking, or other amusements, there is nothing to be compared to a flock of mosquitoes on a bender. If you don't believe it, fix them up with a piece of beef steak soaked in whisky, and laugh yobr sides sore at the antics the drunken warble', cut.

THE NEWSPAPER.—An exchange says the newspaper has become a great " institu tion" in tins country, and is read by all classCts, the highly cultivated as well as those occupying a more humble sphere. Newspaper reading, in fact, forms about all the knowledge a great many,—may we not say a majority,—have the time or inclina tion to acquire. Yet we will venture to say there are none who earn their daily bread by mental labor, that are subject to so many annoyances and vexations in the multifa riousduties which they are compelled to per form, and who for such services receive so little remuneration, as editors. " He pencils and scribbles all day and all night, While Sleep holds the earth in her chains ; And a pain in the neck and a blur iu the eye Is all the reward he obtains."

Herald.] The delegates to the convention which has in its hands the restoration of South Carolina to the Union assembled in this city this morning, and have already ef fected an organization. The election of these delegates took place last Monday in the various parts of the State, and a very respectable body of men—respect able in size and appearance—has been gathered together. As to their condi tion in other respects, you must wait for time to 'develop. Their antecedents are not good. They were all bona fide, bitter and original secessionists and rebels. The thoroughness with which these men embraced the crime of seces sion, to whose deformities thirty . years' familiarity had, blinded them, is the only virtue they have as yet developed. But this is a wonderful age of transfor mations, and this convention may un expectedly develop something akin to patriotism. If they have none of this, you may rest assured that they have the bump of selfishness thoroughly devel oped, and in like proportion also the burnpnf caution. They are going to do that wllich will benefit themselves, in dividually and collectively; and as they have enough sense left to see and enough honesty and candor to acknowledge that slavery is dead and only requires decent burial to afflict us no more, you may safely conclude that they will rapidly follow the example of Mississippi and reorganize with an altered constitu tion recognizing that slavery is dead. Whether they will take the other abso lutely necessary step in addition and prohibit slavery henceforth and forever depends on circumstances and the Pres idential pressure. THE . 3IEMBERS OF THE CONVENTION Some of the members of the conven tion sit without any certainty that they are eligiule. Numbers of them have never been pardoned. Wade Hampton, who used to be a rebel lieutenant-gen eral, is a prominent member. James Collor, who lost a leg in the same ser vice as brigadier general, is also a dele gate from the Charleston district. Alfred Huger, the old postmaster of South Carolina, was the head of - a family all of whom indulged to excess in treason. Charles H. Simon was Colonel or Lieu tenant Colonel of the Twenty-fifth (Eutaw) rebel fegiment, and fought in defence of Charleston. In short, it may be said, without exaggeration, that the convention represents the rebel army. But you will best know them by their works of the future and not the past. The Convention met in the Baptist Church of this city. You will remem ber that Sherman's troops left the capi ,tal il.l a condition not proper for habita tion. The organization was effected by the jselection of David L. INardlaw, of Abbeville district, as Presidentpro ton. Governor Perry was then untitled of the organization of the Convention. On the receipt of his reply, stating that he would send in a communication to the Convention on Thursday, the Conven tion adjourned, to meet at noon to-mor row. THE PRESIDENT OE THE CONVENTION Mr. Wardlaw has never been known in national politics, but has been a prom inent State political agitator since he was elected to the State Legislature as a member of the House of Representatives, and on the assem blage of the Legislature he was elected Speaker, and retained the position un til 1841. In this year he was elected a Judge of the Court of General Sessions and Common Pleas, and has been on the bench continuously up to the pres ent time. He is looked upon as a line lawyer and a splendid presiding officer, The Prospects In New York The N. Y. iicro/d says:--It will not be so easy for the republicans to regain power as it was for the democrats in 1862. An overwhelming triumph now will decide the next Presidential elec tion in advance and put the democrats in possession of the government for many years to come. The victories won by the republican politicians during the war were merely temporary ; but a vic tory now is a permanency. Thousands of democrats left their party in the war times because all other issues were sub sidiary to the war issue; but now they are marching home to their old political quarters, just as our veterans are return ing to their farms and their stores. We see some of their names conspicuous upon the democratic State ticket, and we shall see nearly all of them voting this ticketat the polls. When the coun try is in danger we all join the national army and the national party ; but when the War is over the army and the party are disbanded together, and our citizens resume their old political affiliations with their old avocations, or else they strike out for themselves new parties and new occupations. The republicans must learn that we will have no stand ing parties and no standing armies. The democratic party is now as national as the republican, and if the -radicals prevail at Syracuse they will make the republican organization as sectional as it was when it first took the field. We should not be surprised, in that event, to see the democrats become the admin istration party, nd, assisted by Presi dent Johnson, put the republican oppo sition to total rout. A Loud Call on Gen. Butler The New Orleans Picayune, of the 27th, notices the fact that Gen. Butler has been interceding for the restoration to Mrs. Slocomb of certain private prop erty taken from her during his (But ler's) occupancy of that city, and says : General Butler went all the way from Lowell to Washington to ask it as a per sonal favor that his promise to Mrs. Slo comb should be carried out. The favor was granted, and Gen. Butler was thus released from this obligation. How about the thousand other and similar demands of the ladies, whose jewels, books, plate, family memorials, etc., have been appropriated and withheld in like manner with Mrs. Slocomb's prop erty? Does the General recognize it as a pledge and obligation of honor and duty to aid these ladies in the recovery of their property We trust that hisseusibility to appeals of the character of Mrs. Slocomb's will not be satisfied with this act. There are a great many other claims on his honor and faith, quite as strong as Mrs. S's— to which it is hoped, he will give his early and earnest attention. New York Hotels A correspondent says: During the last four years twenty-five new hotels have been opened in New York, and yet the public houses were never more thronged than they are at present. It' seems that the more hotels there are, the more they are crowded ; and it is reported that two immense establish ments larger than the Fifth Avenue are to be erected next spring, one near the corner of Broadway and Twenty-fifth street, and the other on Fifth Avenue and Fourteenth street. Stewart, the calico Crmsus, it is said, is to be inter ested pecuniarily in one of them, and the Lelands of the Metropolitan in the other. No doubt they will make for tunes for their proprietors, for there has been no more remunerative business for years in this city than that of hotel keeping. I learn from what I deem good authority that during the last twelve months the Fifth Avenue has cleared $175,000, the Metropoliton, $160,- 000, the St. Nicholas $150,000, the Astor $125,000, and the others in the same proportion. ,#ptfial Notices. tQ- Itch Itch!!
