Marriages on Saturday To get, married on Saturday is the fashion of the Summer. Snriotv is standing own-inouthed with s tonishinent nt this new idea, for if there has been these last twenty years any one day regarded as par ticularly inappropriate nnd unlucky for weddings, that dav has len Saturday. But r f a sudden Satur day hns been seized on ns the day of nil for the most elaborate bridals of the moment. The most import ant weddiiiL'S of the Summer have been set for that day of the week, and Monday, Tuesday and Wednes day have been cast quite into the shade. What lias brought this change of feeling about among the brides can hardly be told. Besides the prcjui. ice that has always existed against Saturday itself it has long been the custom to have marriages take place in the early part of the week. Tues day and Wednesday have been very favorite days. Only these people as a rule who have been indifferent to public opinion hnvo ever even thought of getting married din ing tho latter half of the week. This sudden making of Saturday as the fasbionnUTTi' MlUg day of t-i:n !:um iner is, therefore, little short of re markable and is occasioning a great deal of talk. Death of Judge Wlckham.

Treasurer's Sales. Judge Morrison, of McKean Co.. has decided that the Act of Juno 3, 1S35, P. L. 71, making sales of seat ed and unseated lands forarronrnges of taxes valid nnd rffeotunl, irre spective of tho fact whether such lands were seated or unstated at tho timo of assessment thereof, is not illy vicious legislation, but offends against Act 14, Sec. I, of tho Con stitution of Pennn., which requires that taxes shall bo uniform upon tho same class of subjects. A tax sale of land erroneously as sessed ns unwated land, when in fact it was seated land, and ought to have been assessed on tho seated li.-.t, will pass no title to the pur chaser. M., M. A N. Y.
