Education Outside Of Books.

Do you know that your best educated wo-
men are the most ccomical without being
mean They stop to count costs. They
are never deluded by fashion They only
pay decent respect to other peoples opin-
ions, and fit their garments by the length of
their purses, They can give literally to
Ged's poor, and be happy with nm ingram
carpet. They can look neat and be content
ed in plain bonnet, because they love a
wild rose better than one made BY a millin-
er. They can be intelligent and entertain
ing without reading more than one book a
year; because, keeping their eyes and ears,
and hearts open, rich and beautiful expert
cnccs are daily falling out of them. And
after all this is the great secret of happiness
and efficiency in lilo-this is what YOU are
educated up to-in earnest appreciation OF
the capabilities and the treasured joys of
the present Your true learning, what
makes othcs richer by being with you, are
the golden sparks struck out of yourown be
ing. Your worthicSt opinions are not Dor
rowed from books, but those born of the
thought and culture you have brought for
ward in your life work. The symmetry
and harmony of your character was no
drilled into you at once by yeIir teahers
but grew by daily accrctlons, until you haC
learned to live, ms it you were accountable
to God and not to men for deeds done il
the body.

Make a. Beginning.

Remember in all things, that if you dc
not begin you will never come to an end. =
The first weed pulled mp in the garden, the
first seed in the ground, the first shilling put
in the savings bank, and the first mile tray
elcd ON a journey, are all important things ;
then make beginning, and thereby a hope,
promise, a pledge, an assurance that you
are in earnest with what you have under
taken. How many poor idle, crring, hes
itating outcast is now creeping and crawling
through the world, who might have held
up his head and prospered- If, Instead of
putting off his resolutions of industry and
amendment, he had only made beginning.

Oid Hoops.

lleaekiel llelwrnkle, Esquire, says that
instead of the ladies throwing away their
old hoops, they should suspend them to
your gsrded across a beanpole s. tx feet high.
Plant hopvineS and morning glorys and in
Il very little while over this rejected trellis,
creeps mass of beautiful and living bloom;
at the same time answering aS an ornamen-
tai and summer house. And it is much
better place to put them than in the street.
All the girls and women who wear hoops
should cut this out and paste it in then
scrap-book.

Allegheny Cattle Market.

The transactions at the Allegheny
Drove Yards on Wednesday the 18th
inst, were as follows:
CATTLE There was a full average
supply of cattle on sale on Monday, and
with slight improvement in the de-
mand, the market for prime grades ruled
firmer, while common and inferior were
as dull as ever. The attendance of East
ern buyers was rather larger than usual
but they did nat take hold very freely,
the uncertainty of the Eastern markets
requiring great prudence and caution on
the part of those who would operate
with any degree of success. This week
the telegraph may report the New York
and Philadelphia markets active and
higher, as over supply is almost sure to
follow next week, and, as a matter of
course, dull market and lower range
OF prices are the result In our market
strictly prime cattle sold up to 74astc,
which is a slight advance over last
weeks prices while commonish stock
sold slowly at from At to 1-2c. Parrish
cattle may be quoted at to cents. The
whole number on sale on Monday morn
ing, may be set down at 1,4OO to 1900
head, of which number full 300 to 400
head were either left over or shipped
East.
Hoas-With light arrivals and an i'm
provement in prices reported in the
West, the market ruled shade frmer,
and as compared with last week, prices
are from / tol-2 cent per lb. higher Our
packers have stopped buying, and at
present the demand is confined to sup
plying the retail trade, or for shipment

Co. report having retailed l42 at prices

done in this class of stock, So far as we
could learn there was but one bunch
wholesaled; 90 head, very common aver
aging s5 lbs at DC, gross. For good tat
mutton sheep quotations may be fairly
given at to l-2c, gross. No transact
