Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-01-25

The vicissitude of fortune to which the I" able
editor of many rural journal has been SUBJ
jected has again found expression from the pen
of Albert F. Yost, Esq, who has just emitted
himself from the responsible editorship of the
Wyoming Republican, published at Tunkhan-
mock, Pennsylvania. Mr.. Yost thus paints his
emotions at the unhappy event:
I" With this half-sheet, dear reader of the Re-
publican, it is our intention to bid you SORROW
full farewell. This may surprise and disgust
you, for we are vain enough to believe that our
paper has been welcome visitor-not up to the
standard in any respect, but it was our design
to improve as we went along-and you are all
10th to see it 90 under. Yet such, you see, is its
manifest destiny. We fiat broke-so COM
pletely strapped that if one -hundred-acre farms
were selling at twenty-five cents a piece we
couldn't muster enough to buy wild plum-tree.
That is why we compelled to stop.
s'Our people have a wrong conception of us,
we fear. Understand that we were born pretty
much in the manner children are born nova
good while ago, it is true, but that don't affect
the truth of statement. Being born in the
| flesh too material, we fear, to get quite
fat on promises with glimpses of success in the
future, and nothing to appease the clamorous
demands of the present. When we came into
this beautiful world money happened to be very
| scarce, anu we knew Dy intuition tuaI VIC "elo

hew our way through the awkwardest mate
rial, and under the toughest circumstances, but
not prepared to wedther ii in Wyoming
county. There don't appear to be enough of the
true Christian element among you-are too sell
| fish, don't want to get acquainted with anybody
but yourself-allow a friendless stranger to seek
his company among the low and vulgar, or if he
is too refined for that, he may mould and rot in
his own individuality. You are not sociable
enough. We might possibly give you some ad-
vice, but forbear. Leek at your rickety
town with your eyes open. Rid yourselves Of
some of the rich fossils of last century, and it
will do you incalculable good. Elect men to fill
your borough offices who are enterprisng, and
if you haven't them import them. Devote more
energy and money to the cause of education.
Build respectable institution of learning in an
inhabitable spot. And in advance of all pay
YOUR debts, and do not suffer the sheriff to set
tie with your creditors. This advice won't be
included in any ones BILL

every part and parcel of us.
I" Our professional brethren will let us down
easily as possible under the circumstances We
are sorry that in our retirement we will not be
able to subscribe for all our exchanges. If any
have words of comfort and consolation to ad-

be glad to know it ) and if any feel like droppino o

o To our readers we also say farewell: and
tho we have never seen very many of you, we feel
just as friendly toward you. We regret that onr
relations are thus abruptly suspended, and that
you owe us SO much money, but your easy con-
