For the REPUBLICAN.
Hithered Hopes.

OH who hath none OF these to recall :
Who can look back upon the pathway
of life, and not find these strewn along
it? Yes, we have all our dead hopes,
our dead idols; but though dead, not
forgotten. We know how eager we
were with expectation, how we stretch
ed out our hands to some darling OBJ
ject, and when that object grew fainter,
more distinct,-when the straw, TO
which we still clung in our desperation,
is taken away, then, and not till then,
do we realize that all is withered,
blasted.
And death has entered and torn from
us that, upon which our hopes are built.
He hath taken that which is dearest TO
us, and left us only tormourn over its
downfall. But it is not always death
that iLficts the heaviest blow. 1t is far
more bitter, to the aged mother, to be-
hold heisson in the path of vice, than it
would have been to have lain him in the
grave, when child. Her hopes for the
future would have been a solace left;
but now hope is dead, never to bloom
again. The estranged, yet loving hearts,
the streams that in one should flow,
and vet must take a different course,
the fairy picture of bliss which faded
away before the stern reality. Oh.
this is "deeper sorrow than the wall
above the dead"
o, We withered hopes, We dead idols,
how do you lie like leaden weight up
on our hearts, and crush the rising joy!
But it may be best for us. We have
needed the discipline to turn us away
from the mere earthly, to that which is
higher and purer. We worship our
clayey idol, and rob God of the honor
due to him. Softly, his voice doth
speak comfort to us, tell us Of hope
that never dieth. Then, ye whose lives
are dark and cherries, whose brightest
hopes are withered, listen to that voice
of consolation, and bring your burdens
unto Him.
Come ye, when youths hopes are dying
h.at- Sin do l.nffn

There are agents selling organs
through Holmes county, representing
different make of instruments, who
represent themselves as being agents
for the Estey. Several times this has
come to our ears. 1 would just notify
the public that they are not represent
ing the Estey. They have no right to
sell them. This is done to injure the
Estey and praise their own. have the
entire control of Holmes county for this
celebrated organ; have man in Mil
lersburg working for it and one in the
western part of the county but no 9TH
ers. This is quite grab game. Well,
brothers do all you can against the Es-
tey, and then all against me, and then
write to Estey for No. 81, and have
him to send your letter to me. If you
would like to work this celebrated in
strument, perhaps 1 can help you a lit
tie. William Vischer of Wellington, is
the agent for Northern Ohio, and Bald
win of Cincinnati, for the Southern
part, but this territory is occupied, gen.
tlemen. We know its the best organ
before the public. We find no fault
with you for falling in love with it but
just represent things as they are.

A TruStY Friend.

The adage "A trusty friend is hard to
find," is by far, not true one. If ii
were, what an unpleasant abiding place
this world would be indeed. 1t would
be as dreary uninhabited island with
but one occupant. Business would al
most be hushed. Friends would nc
longer pay out their hard earned money
to pay visit to distant acquaintance.
Gladly may we rejoice that such is not
the case. True friends are everywhere
to be found, and without number. Take
but a good friend with you, and start
out in the world, and you will find to
your surprise these few words are true.

Learning f0 Write.

Penmanship is an art which requires
diligent practice. The learner may
have a thorough knowledge of the fun
damental principles, and yet be poor
writer. He may be able to analyze
every letter perfectly, and still not be
able to form them ON paper. Therefore
once knoaoing how to form the letters,
he must put forth his best efforts to at
tain skill in execution.

Allegheny Cattle Market
PITTSBURGH, Feb. IS, 1871.

CATTLE.
The supply of cattle was again comparative.
ly light to-day, footing up about 800 head. The
market opened up fairly active to-day, and
nearly if not all the good cattle were picked
up early in the day, and that too, at full prices
lin some instances, at better prices than those
of last week-but the common grades wert
slow at the opening and continued to drag all
the way through. Selling at to cents. Prime
to extra butchers stock sold at from to- "
and common at to AZ As compared with
last week, there was little or no difference in
prices.
SHEEP AND LAMBS.
The supply was light to-day, unusually so
footing up about $40 head, and nearly all o.
those were common. We had no sales reported
above 50 cts per lb. The most of the sales were
within the range of 50 to "a per head.
HOGS.
The supply of hogs was fair. fully up to the
demand, and the market was moderately ac-
tive though as compared with last week, there
was but little change in prices, say t5to5 z cts.
The competition among the regular dealers is
so sharp thatthere is little or no margin. and
at present there is not much difference between
the Wholesale and retail prices; butchers are
buying half dozen about as cheap as they
could buy car load.
