Is heard many times. 81 work for
money" says some man dissatisfied
with former pay. The above and
kindred expressions may be heard
almost every day. Sure it is we
can't get along without some money
on these mundane shores. But do
we not lay too much stress on mon
ey making? Has il not become
one of the virtues among Ameri-
can people? DO we not Get more

times fear that we are ready 10 sac

we not acting on the principle that
money is the chief thing, and we
are ever saying, get money. Its
price is above everything else. But
let Us stop and ask: Are we not
setting too much store by money
Are we not sacrificing too much
for its attainment? Is it worth al
the muscle, aud brain, and effort
which we are expanding for it? Il
it worth the moral principle which

EMP0RIA AS A CATTLE MARKET.

We derive most of the facts and
figures given below from Mr.. G..
w. Slaughter, the cattle king of
the Neosho Valley.
For many years Mr.. Slaughter
was engaged in the cattle trade in
Texas, and thoroughly under
stands the business. About three
years ago, becoming impressed
with the advantages of this city as
residence for his family, and as a
shipping point in his business, he
removed here, since which time he
has been largely engaged in driv-
ing cattle from Texas, generally
wlntering them near here.
We only give the principal herds
now IN This vicinity. which are
now, or soon will -be. rcady for
market. These cattle have all
been wintered in the valleys near
this city, and will all be shipped
from this point.

THE LATE CONGRESS-.

The New York Tribune speaks
goodIword for the forty-third Con-
gress. We are glad TO note the
record of such an opposition paper.
Some of the little papers who have
opposed the majority of Congress
might learn something by carefully
reading the following:
"Whatever may be said of the
first session of the XLIIId Con-
gresa, as to its want of courage on
many subjects. and its want of eau
ton on others, it cannot be denied
that it has been freer from jobs and
schemes than any that has as
sembled here for years and it must
| also be said that its appropriations
have been made with greater eau
| ton, and with more regard for
economy than might have been eX-
| pected. The calendar of either
| House has at no time been un-
marked by dishonest schemes, but
there has been great surprise on all
sides, in many cases heightened to
appointment, that SO few Of
them have obtained favorable ac.
ton. 1t does not appear that thf
city has been freer from jobbers, oi
