NEW VOLUME.

The present issue is the second
number of the third volume of the
REPUBLICAN. Our readers will see
by looking at the tabs on their pa
pers, that their subscription is due.
There are not a few who still owe
us for the second year, and we hope
that such will not be offended should
we tell them that we need the mon
ey badly, and hope that they will
call Immediately and square their
accounts. During the coming
month we have some heavy bills to
meet, and we urge it upon every
one who is owing US to come for
ward and make q settlement. Every
two dollars helps a little. Every
subscriber should pay in advance if
possible, as we have our bills to
meet every thirty days. We trust
then, that during the present and
next week that every one who can
will pay up for the past and coming
year.

The Old Times.

There is a strange pain in coming sud-
denly npon some relic of ones lost
youth-some lock of golden hair, cut
when your hair, gentle lady, was golden
which is so white now-some, portrait
painted when life was young, when lips
red charm and the pride of the brown
were in their prime, when the skin was
satin which now is parchment. You
feel it, too, strong man though you are,
and your lip curls half sorrowfully,
half scornfully, under your grizzled
mustache, as you look at the face of a
boyisl bloom whicha wandering artist
painted quarter Of a century ago.
Was that you-that young face, with
the, frank, fearless eyes which no care
had made dim, the tell-tale color, the
eager mouth? What were the ambi-
tions of that old time? How different
were those day-dreans, from the sober
schemes of to-day! How you hoped
how you tt asted-with what sublime
faith you looked on into the future!
Now you are old and the world is cold,
and the rose color Of youth has faded
into the sober grey of middle age. This
is a better thing, you try to think-you
are wiser, you are stronger-but there
is little pain, nevertheless, sigh of
longing, for the Something sweet"
which
"Followed you with flying feet,
And can never meet again."

The Estey Organ.

The Estey Organ is one of the Oldest
and most improved organs in the Uni
ted States, having been first built in
1916. twenty-six years ago. The estab-
,ishment for the manufacture of these
instruments, although humble at first,
has grown from year to year, until the
House of j. Estey & Co. has become the
most extensive manufacturers of Cot
tage Organs in the world. The Works
are situated in Brattleboro, VT, and
consist of six main factories, placed in
a row, fronting on Bridge street, each
one hundred feet long, three stories
high, and forty feet wide. The. Dry
Houses are in the rear of the main fac
tories, and are 36x52 feet and l2xl35
feet, and two stories high. The main
buildings are forty feet apart and are
connected together at the second story
by bridge, containing track, on
which is run car conveying material
from one shop to another. Other i'm
provements are being made, buildings
erected, in order to furnish instruments
in sufficient numbers to meet the great
demand of the public. These organs
have been sold not by extensive adver-
tising and putting, but by the real mer-
its of the instruments themselves,
Whenever they have been introduced
they have won their way into the ad-
miration and confidence of the people
and this is not mere chance, but comes
as the inevitable consequence of skill,
high attainment, and unremitting ap-
plication and labor. From the first the
manufacturers have employed the finest
mechanics and inventors of the age
The leading Improvements now In vogue
in Reed Organs were perfected and
brought out in this establishment. Theil
instruments now stand unriyalled by
anything found IN this country or Eu.
rope. For many years they were un-
able to supply the home demand, that Il
the demand in the Eastern States. Since
; their introduction into the Western
! States, their sales have been immense
and are rapidly increasing as the organ
is introduced. That Estey & Co. have
r invented and adopted more valuable
Improvements in Reed instruments thar
any other house in the world, is evi
denced by the fact, that other promi
nent establishments after yainly endeav
: oring to depreciate, haye been driver
to scarcely more honorable course o
initiating them, and they have beel
: obliged on several occasions to call t.
their aid the law to protect their rights
2 But let it be well understood, that tn
credit for originality and superior ex
: cellence belongs to the Estey Organ
l There are several improvements pecu
: liar to this organ, which we will lay be
! fore our readers at another time.

Firemen's Tournament.

The State Firemen's Tournament met
in GAINESVILLE last Thursday. There
were about four Thousand firemen pres

to all who were there. A special train
was run from Akron through to Mt.
Vernon over the c. Mt. V. & ID. road.
On its return it stopped off an hour or
two in Millersburg, and Marbles Band

they would stop off, a fine supper would
have awaited them. This Band is one

Contemplate Meanness.

There are some of the meanest boys
in this town that we have ever met, and
some just as good. One of their mean
tricks can be illustrated as follows: A
little boy five or six years old had bought
a watermelon with his own money that
he had been saving up for that purpose,
and was carrying it home, just as much
as he could do, when some larger boys
met him and took the melon from him
and carried it of with them. The little
fellow was almost heart-broken. Such
meanness is contemplate. A boy who
could do such a mean act, is candidate
for the penitentiary.

Dead Letters.

Nearly three million letters went to
thedead Letter Office last year. They
werepartly classified as follows: Fifty
eight thousand letters had no county OIL
State direction; more than 400,O 900 lack
ed stamps, and 5000 were posted with
out any address at all. The sum of $92,
900 in cash, and more than $3,O00,000 in
drafts, checks, &C., were found in these
letters. 1t appears that on an average
every letter misdirected, or that goes to
the Dead Letter Office from any cause,
contains one dollar.

Petition to Trustees.

The Trustees of Hardy township have
been petitioned by one hundred or more
taxpayers to grant an election on the
railroad question under the new law.
We trust that all our citizens will feel
deeply interested in this matter, and
when the proper time comes, cast their
vote for the railroad. Its undoubtedly
the best way, and perhaps the only way
by which we can secure road through
our county. A road can be built in
this way and the people feel the burden
but little. We shall speak of this mat
ter more fully again.

FREDERICKSBURG, Aug. 26, ~.
EDS. REPUBLICAN: After repeated eff
forts, (and as many failures) in the at
tempt to resume correspondence, and
keep the readers of the REPUBLICAN
posted in regard to the local affairs Of
this vicinity, have finally determined
to break the monotonOus silence which
has so long existed, and continue at in
tervals to acquaint them with the par
ticulars unless some unavoidable cir
cumstance is placed in the way.
We have lately been visited with an
abundance of rain, which in one or two
instances was accompanied by high
wind.
Wheat in this vicinity, on an average,
may perhaps be called a twO-third
crop. Corn and oats will likely aver
age with former years. Apples appear
to be plenty and Of good quality.
Peaches, like Greeleyites, are scarce.
The greatest excitement here at pres
ent is the proposition of the Pennsyl-
rania Central Railroad Company to
straighten their present route, by cut
off from Massillon and running through
Mt. Eaton and Fredericksburg, and
thence westward to Shreve. .5
A meeting was held in the Hall last
Friday evening. Officers were elected
and short speeches were made. The cit
liens here are asked to defray the
necessary expense of surveying from
here to Shreve. Nothing is known to
the certainty of the project.
In political affairs there is no unusual
excitement. The prevailing tendency
appears to be in favor of the "Tanner
and Shoemaker" An sold liner" in
this vicinity was recently taken sud-
denly i'll with what at first was thought
to be cholera morbus. A physician was
and upon = closer investiga-
tion it was discovered that the cause Of
the malady had been a premature at
tempt by the patient to swallow Gree
ley. Theold "Philosopher" proved too
much for his digestive apparatus.
Thanks be to the vigilance and fideli-
ty of the firm and true, there is yet a
remnant (Of Republicans) left which
have not defiled their garments. Who

The latest returns from West
Virginia assures the election of ia
cob, but leave the fate of the oonsti-
tuition in doubt. 1t is probable,
however, it has been defeated by
small majority.
Vice President Colfax, in a letter
to a friend in Washington, says there
is no doubt of Indiana, She is sure
in October, and will swell the elec
toral majority for Grant and Will
son in November.
Since the nomination of General
Dix for Governor by the Republi-
cans of New York, Mr.. Greeley's
friends are very fearful that New
York State will go against them. 1t
would be carryingthe war into AT
rica to whip the ola Philosopher in
his own State, but stranger things
have happened.
