"VIcE OF The AGE."-A lively sermon
on the "Vice OF the Age" was preached
in st. Louis, recently, by Rev DR.. Hol-
land, OF that city, and in the course OF
his remarks he said: "The middle
classes spend their income in keeping
up false appearances. They, too, must
wear dove coloted psntaloous and shiny
boots. They must wear diamond studs
and seal rings, and carry young ladies
to the opera in hired carriages at the
rate of thee hours use for three days
wages. They must take a turn now
and then at billiards, stand treat to the
cocktails, bet upon their varacity when
called in question, and, last Of all, lest
they should be deemed timid, must
demonstrate their nerve by fighting the
tiger, until it claws the last dime out
Of their pockets. and claws lasting
scratches upon their souls" What a
fearful pictute this is. Let our young
readers remember that the only safe
guard against this horrible vice is work
not work as the slave who works to
eat and eats to work, but work to reach
a higher plane OF effort, not only OF the
body but OF the mind. Work, whatever
it be, whether for a day, a week,
month, or a lifetime, honestly and
cheerfully, as one who expects to con-
template its results forever Tank not
OF danger or hardship, press onward and
onward, determining to triumph.

The friends of Garfield are maneuver-
ing to give him an improved standing.
A correspondent tells how it is done :
considerable indignation is manifested
on the floor OF the House at the fact
that within the last two days Garfield
has been quite frequently called to the
char by Speaker Blan, to preside tenn
porarily. Garfeld's occupation Of the
chair heretofore has been an unusual
thing, and that he is now called to it so
often is regarded as an effort to give him
q better standing than he is entitled TO-,
and to give him such weight as belongs
to one who is held in high esteem in
official circles, as will influence the
House when his case comes to be voted
on"

We were in error yesterday in state
ing that CabeIl county received its name
in honor Of Joseph c. Cabell, president
for so many years Of the James River
and Kanawbs Canal Company. We
inferred that it was so named in his
honor because the people of the region
of country where Caball lies appreciated
30 highly his great servicea in the cause
of that magnificent improvement which
was OF the utmost importance to them.
But Cabel county was established before
the commencement OF the canal, and re-
ceived its name in honor Of the late
Judge William II. Cabell, a brother OF
Joseph C, Judge CabeIl was president
OF the Court of Appeals for many years.
He had previously filled the office Of
Governor Of Virginia with dignity and
honor.

THE Christian Union utters warning
cry when it proclaims that the great
battle of our day is to be the battle OF
money. "The combination of capital
ists," it adds, "the consolidation of rail-
roads, the enormous concentration Of
money in comparatively few hands, is
raising up a plutocracy which threatens
to overmatch legislatures, courts, and
all private iutrests that may stand in
the way OF tb ese gigantic corporations,
II the very ablest men in Congress are
so easily beguiled and perverted by this
first onset, what vii 1.-The future be, when
millions OF dollars can be brought to
bear upon Congress to secure million
a;res' legislation, as against the intrests
Of the common people2" Where is the
remedy for this evel? The Union sug
gests tn at it is two-fold, to wit:
"There must be formed q home SEN
t;ment of honesty, which shall make it
i'm nssoible for any man to enjoy such
cams as he gets by a sacrifice OF honor,
truth, and public trust. As long as
men bv scores and hundreds, can 60 to
the Legislature poor, and in five years
return rich, maintain their popularity
and enjoy their ill-gotten possessions,
Of what use will it be once in ten years
70 sacrifice the luckless criminal amid
universal execrations2 The honesty
must dwell among the common people.
There must be honesty at the sources
of power Ifthe people are detsuched
their representatives will not be virtuous
Tbe moral education OF the whole com !.
muuity must, after all, be the grand
remedy."

OFFICE OF THE DAILY hEGlSTER,
WHEELING. February est, 1873 J
There is a good deal of activity in
the general markets and our dealers
are anticipating pretty lively spring.
There are no great changes to note.
There appears considerable difficulty
in getting money accommodations. and
10 most articles there has not appeared
anything 10 warrant investments for
speculative purposes. A good many
persons are keeping out Of the market
hoping for lower prices when spring
opens.
The flour market is considerably
excited and prices for the better grades
have advanced fully SOC per barrel
as will be seen by our quotations.
The Wheat markets are weak but
without change. There is much diver
sity of opinion between the bulls aud
tie bears" the one protesting that
prices must advance, from the very
nature of things, and the other as firm
in the belief that although change is
likely, the tendency is for lower figures.
We are of the opinion that the present
figures will rule for some time yet.
Corn has been very Steady during the
week, but the feeling seems to be that
the enormous amount yet to come to
market, will tend to lower prices.
Oats are very firm, though without
change.
In the seed market trade is weak
The price seems to be declining all over
the country. Sales were made in New
York on Monday OF Timothy seed at
$3,75@s4
In groceries we have no changes OF
any importance to make, except in Coz
fee which is advancing in price and is
stiff at the advance.
There seems to be a better inquiry
for Salt Fish, but prices are without
material change.
In the Iron market we mark down
the prices of some grades Of nails SOC
per keg. Manufacturer iron is lower.
The Wool market is dull and weaker.
Sales cannot be made now at as good
prices as week ago. Advices from
New York, state that there has been q
little more movement but not by auy
] means an active market. 4 few man

GOSPEL GAMBLING. The expulsion
Of the Rev. William G. Clark from the
New York Conference Of the Methodist
Protestant Church for engineering q
religious lottery, the New York Sun
thinks, indicates healthier moral
feeling in that part Of the Christian pub
lie. The movement against religious
games OF chance, we are told, should
not end here. The railing of silver
plated TIN trumpets; the sale OF these
at fifty cents, and all other questionable
methods o. raising funds for gospel pur-
poses, should be sternly rebuked ard
discountena ced. 1t is inconsistent to
preach against vanity and pride when
these verv weaknesses are worked upon
to obtain contributions from reluctant
church members. Let the ministry

goods, and they will fine plenty of buyers
