"a correspondent Of the Pittsburgh DIS
patch writing from Cadiz. Harrison county,
says: The farmers of this county raise
Sheep principally and ship over one mil
lion pounds annually. The agents have
bought up nearly all the clip this year, and
paid fifty cents per pound, irrespective OF
quality. The price has come down now,
and wool is dull at forty FIVE cents. There
is great prejudice here against heavy fee
ces, and buyers will scarcely look at twenty
five cents per poun clips These heavy
1eeces turn out to be principally dirt, and
when washed, about onc-fourth of the for
ner weight in clean wool "
GSS"We find the above extract 10 the
Presbyterian Bannel, of the l7th, copied
from the Pittsburgh Di&patch. The writer
of a communication containing so much of
falsehood as the above, is certainly very
mean man. We hope he is not citizen of
our county. There is in this county now
from three to four hundred pounds OF the
best wool in the world, which waull be very
cheap to any manufacturer at from fifty to
sixty cents per pound, and is worth more
money. All the best woods are not bought
up. We admit that there has not been
enough distinction made by agents about
the condition of wool, but considerable
quantity of the wool has brought as high as
fifty four and fifty-six cents per pound, and
we have heard of one clip selling at sixty
cents. @
We know Of no object the correspondent
could have, but to keep buyers out of the
county, and in this VT think he will be mis-
taken.

A HosT OF FRIENDS.

R25 This number closes the second Vol
ume (new series) of the Sentinel. We are
very grateful to the Democracy of this coun.
tyfor theirlibcral support given the paper,
which We hope may continue. We would
suggest, however, that the circulation of
the Sentinel might be greatly increased if
friends of the paper would made an effort
1t should be done. We labor under great
disadvantage by reason OF the comparative
ly small number of Democratic voters in
the county, which all understand There
is not a county in the State with so small
vote that sustains newspaper. 1t is on
ly done in this county from the reason that
30 many take an interest In supporting the
local press.
In this connection we would say that there
are many who have received the paper reg
ularly from us for two years, who have not,
as yet paid US one cent. Many Of them we
know are good men; but friends, we cannot
afford to publish paper in this way. We
must be paid promptly, or wo will labor un-
der financial embarrassment We dislike
to dun, vory mu,h, but sometimes it be-
comes necessity.

Pee The Carrolltou Union Press takes ex-
ception to an article which appeared in the
Sentinel some two weeks since, in which it
was claimed that the right to vote carried
withit the right to hold offices. The fress
does not deny that the two go hand in hand
but claim that the negroes are unambitious
and would vote the Radical ticket straight
along without asking anything for their
devotion to party. Don't be SO sure of
that, MIR. Eress-it is impossible for any
man to be among Radicals very long with
out having great thirst for position, and
the lower he is in the scale of humanity,
the better his chances are in that party
The Press should not treat the colored Re
publicans SC slightingly, when even now,
the leaders Of his party, claim that a negro
shall be nominated for Vice President OF
the United States on the Radical ticket next
year. The article shows that the Press is
governed by corrupt motive, and has no
other object than that Of retaining the
''loayes and fishes" among its frierds. Try
again, manhood manhood Suffrage"
but no manhood office holding is the
motto Of the Press. Our friend of the
Press should not write such silly articles =
His friends must see that he is placing
them in an uncomfortable position, Do
not trust so much to the generosity and
self-abnegation of your colored brotber.-
Young man, you will be deceived. Why,
sir, the Larkios of this side, are claiming in
advance division Of Offices.

Death of Rows. "a. Rrockunier.

DE atn OF Rev. y. Il. BrOckunfer.
Rev. S. r. Brockunier, Of the NJ. L.
Church, well and favorably known in this
county, died; at his residence in Wheeling,
West Virginia, on Tuesday, the 23rd inst.
The following notice of his death we copy
from the Wheeling Register of the oath:
We were pained to announce on yester-
day the death of Reverend s. r. Brock
unier, an able and popular minister of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, and long a
resident in our midst. For over fifty years
Mr.. Brockunier had devoted the best ener
gies of noble nature and the splendid
qualities of superior intellect to that sa-
cred calling, than which none is more holy.
he had seen grow uD around him many
useful members of society, weo under b is
labors had been led from the paths of NOR
al darkness and error up into the light and
purity Of a better life. He had witnessed
the turning of young footsteps into ''the
way which leadeth into holiness, and lik.
the faithful and devoted teacher that he
was, had drawn HIS sweetest pleasures from
those duties of his vocation which enabled
him to minister unto the reformation of
hayward youth. The world-worn and aged
pilgrims were also the precious objects of
his ministration, and to those who had long
borne with him the burdens of the Chris
tian, he was ever a trusted adviser and a
bright example. To all classes of Chris.
tians, as indeed to all classes of society, he
was cndeared as we'll by the gentle acts of
the temporal friend and adviser, as by the
holy Offices of the religious counsellor and
example.
Having beheld the stormy mutations that
for near three quarters of century had
marked the progress of civil, political, So
cial and religious life in this land, he has
been called from the field of his mortal du-
ty and the scenes of his earthly struggles.
To the bereaved relatives and friends,
who to-day are mourning his loss with a
grief that no coincidence can assuage, we
tender the sympathy OF sorrowing com
mnuity. All feelt that good man has been
called from our midst, and all unite in at
testing the purity and goodness of that
character which henceforth will be immor-
talized in memory.
"How beautiful it is for man to die
Upon the walls of Zion! To be called
Like a watchworn and weary sentinel
To put his arnor Off and rest
In Heaven"
