January was a kaleidoscopic month, sntl a humbug. It gave us more un- cxjucted combinations of absurd weather than was ever see a before in tho same length ol time. Instead of going right along with its honest work of affording a cold aud bracing atmnsphere, in which hard work could be elieer.’iiily done, and sausages buckwheat cakes nr.d mince pi.-s could be readily assimilated into fat and muscle, it dawdled and drizdod along, one day s’.ealiug tbe moat di pressing of March moisture, and tbe neat tan talising and tempting us with a de ceptive imitation of May, only to re lapse into a temjioraiy and feeble im itation of Winter. Perhaps Febrn- vy will imjiart the electric energy, the keen sense of enjoyment, the om nivorous appetites and the recupera tive activities that ought to be afford ed by any (esj>.'ctable, well-conducted and efficient month of January, To ita other distinctions it may add that for tbe Spartan virtues which Janna- ry shamelessly discarded. It cannot bo a more disgraceful fraud than its predecessor. reXXSYLYAJfU TOR GRANT. * The Pennsylvania Republican State Convention met at Harriaburg *aat Wednesday, the 4th inst, and adopted a resolution that the dele gatee elected to the Repnblicah No tional Convention be Instructed to support Grant for the Presidency.
