MARRIED.

HUGHES - SHUFF. - At the Methodist Episcopal parsonage, by Rev. M. K. 
Foster, on December 10, 1878, Mr. T. D. Hughes, of Altoona, and Miss 
Sadie Shuff, of Allegheny Furnace.
  He was the other day muttering over something like this:
   "The frosty nights have come again,
      And at this time of year
    The single men who sleep alone
      Pounce 'round upon their ear.
    They turn the bedding quickly back,
      And then they tumble in,
    Roll up into a little lump -
      Their knees up to their chin.
    And then unto themselves they say,
      Just loud enough to hear,
    'By George this thing has got to cease
      Before another year."
