To His Eccclieacy, The Governor of M'
pEsTRUCTioN' OF SHEEP.

From all accounts the loss of sheep by
the recent storm has been immense. Every
flock, whose heeces had been shorn, and
which had insufficient shelter, has suffered
severely. The Cleveland Hcrald estimates
that in two townships alone, in CuyahOgo
County, the number killed will reach three
thousand. So from other points through
out Northern Ohio, information reaches us
that the losses have been severe, and will
approximate to many thousands. 1t is
probably that our important wool-growing
interest has received such ipjury as viii
sensibly affect the community.

INFLUENCE OF THE PRESS.

In a sermon on Thanksgiving Day by
the Rev. Mr. Leaken, rector of Trinity (Epis-
copal Church Baltimore, he said.
l shall reserve the remainder of my re-
marks for subject which is rarely alluded
to In the pulpit but which is exercising a
most important influence upon every State
city, village, county and family of our I'm
ion. Ireter to the press-the newspaper
which from the smallest beginning, luxury
for the favored few, has become indispensa-
bic to millions and whose power In forming
public sentiment is unmeasurable
10 illustrate remotely the influence of
this power, suppose person Of intelligence
coming to your family every morning He
informs you of all that has occurred in your
city IN your country, in Europe or distant
Asia. He gathers the details of each inter-
esting event; he attends each important
meeting, and tells you what Is said and
done. In rain and tempest, In summer
and winter doeSthis person pay you his
daily visit, and not only brings you infor-
nation, but gives you his opinion on each
question that arises. In time he becomes
one of you; he is identified with your family
and the character of yourself and those a.
round you have been moulded by this con-
stant contact
But the newspaper does more. 1t brings
you an hundred different articles besides
advertisements 1t can be read at leisure.
Its tsinformation reaches children, and it is
read by servants. 1t forms the subject of
conversation, and plies It's ceaseless yisits to
to your home, instructive, entertaining and
interesting to ALL Have | ever estimated
the force Of this mighty engine? The French
Encyclopedias helped to produce the French
revolution by means Of ponderous books
reaching the learned few.
What increased influence must the
modern press exert, scattering It's myriad
thoughts daily among the milhonsl How
noble the ministry of the editorl How vast
his capacity for good or evil He may enter
the family daily and difuse cheerfulness by
his diversified thoughts He may dry the
tear Of sorrow, animate the weary pilgrim
to renewed exertions, arresting the young
man in his downward career, and shield the
humble and defeneeless against the invasion
Of power. We have prayed for the Presi-
dent of the United States, and for all in au-
thority-for our Senators and representa-
tives in Congress assembled. And shall we
forget those who make our President and
determine our representatives?

DARE TO BE TRUE.

Dare to be right dare to be true, you have
a work that no other can do; do it SO bravely
so kindly, so well, angels will hasten the
story to tell Then dare to be right, then
dare to be true, other men failure can new
er save you; stand by your conscience, your
honor, your faith, stand like a hero and bat
tie till death. Dare to be right dare to be
true love may deny you its sunshine and
dew. Let the dew fail, for showers shall be
'given; dew is from earth, the showers are
from heaven. Dare to be right, dare to be
true, God who created you cares for you too;

head. Dare to be right, dare to be true,
cannot Omnipotence carry you through, city
and mansion and thine all in right, can yon
not dare to be true and be right? Dare to
be right, dare to be true, keep the great
Judgment seat ever in view; look at your
work as you'll look at it then, scanned by
Jehovah, by angels and men. Dare to be
right, dare to be true, prayerfully, lovingly,
firmly pursue the pathway by saint and by
seraphim trod. the pathway that leads to the
city of God

AT the beginning of the war a modest
lieutenant in garrison at the extreme
northwest boundary of the nation, on the
Columbia river, declared that, if a chance
should be offered him, he would strive hard
to gain captains commission. Fate did
not at first seem propitious to him. Until
long after the war was in progress ne had
no CHARGE to rise, and was still a iieuntsnant,
But opportunity came at last, and with great
rapidity that young man rose to be colonel,
brigadier generaland major general in the
regular army. The whole country delights
to honor him for his daring, science, bravery
and patriotism, and his name is Philip H.
Sheridan.
