IT is becoming a difficult thing to
elect a Bishop Of an Episcopal diocese.
Illinois has made two unsuccessful at
tempts, and Iowa bids fair 70 follow
the example. The complaints about

Eccleston, declaring that his accept

against Allen.
II the worthy and sturdy old

sumption, OF natiouPl banks, and
of radical rascality at large are

Make Home Happy.

AV tulS sSdSOu Ol Tue year, Wu9n
our city homes are gathering in
their truant inmates, many of
whom have been drinking in ener-
gy and inspiration for their coming
duties from sea breezes and noun
tain air, many plans are being
formed for the approaching winter.
Schools are rapidly getting into
working order business plans are
being laid; societies, clubs, and
associations of all kinds are reu-
hitting; new organizations are
forming the lecture season open
ing entertainments and excite
ments are vieing with each other
for precedence, and the commu-
nifty generally is in stO to of hope
fol preparation which only comes
in its tullness once a year.
It is, therefore, especially suit
able at this time to consider the
claims of the home-that centre
from which may emanAte so large
II proportion of life's eIevatiDg, in-
MIGRATING, and gIaddening influ-
euCes. tits doubtless, just now, q
prominent subject in the thoughts
of many honseholders. Dwellings
are being renovated, cleansed, re-
furnished, and decorated, altern-
tons made in the style and man
ner of living, new arrangements
formed to suit the new conditions
that have sprung up. But the spe-
cial point to which we desire to
call attention is the happiness of
the home. It is true, that this is
but one out of its many blessings,
bat it is the foundation upon which
they may be built with most Sc
curity. This is often lost sight of
by conscientious persons, whose
main desire is to inculcate virtu0us
principles. They often wonder
that, with SO much effort, they yet
fail, but never dream that had they
tried as earnestly to create happi-
ness as they have to promote we'll
doing these failures might have
been successes. Be good aud
you will be happy" is a frequent
admnnition Of parents to children.
With Ut least equal justice might
II be said to the parents, Make
your children happy and they will
probably be good" The memory
Of q happy home is the best pre-
parati0n that can be given for the
duties and cares Of mature life,
and its continual influence is The
most successful teacher OF every
good quality.

nation Of events. The happiness
Of which we speak may be the boor
Of every family, the priceless treas
ure Of every household. it may
dwell with the poor as we'll as the
rich, the simple az well as the
learned. To believe this to be pos
sible is one great step towards Sc
curing it. We can not work sue
cessFullv without faith in the end
pursued. Che household that is
united by family affection holds
the keys of its happiness in its
own hands. By loving kindness,
gentle courtesy, sympathy and
good will by self-denial, forbear-
ance and patience by bringing
the various talents and qualities OF
each member to bear upon the
good of The whole, the foundation
stones of happy home may be
securely laid. -
1t is sometimes affirmed that the
wife and mother is wholly reponsi
bly, for this duty; that it is her
sole province to create q paradise,
which her husband has oily to
enter and enjoy. This is manilestly
a most unjust demand, and one
impossible to fulfill. Whatever
enters into the home forms the ele-
uents of it's Joy or its sorrow. II
the husband bring home with him
a clouded brow, pre-occupied
thoughts, a cold and Indifferent
manner, or a peevish and dissatis-
fed spirit, it matters little that the
wife has striven with all her ener-
gies to make a happy home his
entrance has poisoned it and null
lifted all her efforts. Both must
work together to this end, it it is
to be reached; both must bring
sympathy, kindness, and good will
to the task; both must leave self
behind as a secondary object, and
devote themselves to the needs
and pleasures Of the rest both
must together lay plans and make
arrangements according to their
means for the comfort and enjoy
ments of the family.
In the disposal of the dwelling
nothing more directly tends to
promote family happriness than n
cheerful, bright, inviting sitting
room, or family parlor. It needs
no expensive decoration or costly
furniture, but only such comforts
and ornaments as the taste and
purse can easily supply, 1t should
freely admit every member of the
household, and give warm vel
come to their various amusements
and occupations. From that room
AID loneliness, silence, and gloom
should be banished ; private vex-
atoms and petty trials should be
left outside only love, sympathy,
good humor, pleasant feelings, and
thoughts should be al
lowed to enter. Especially should
sHch a room be provided for the
long winter evenings about to
come upon us. Many n weary
spirit may thus be cheered, many
II restless youth be drawn from en-
ticiDg temptations to pure and
simple pleasures, many a seed of
happiness may be sown that shall
into rich and noble fruit.
In all our plans, then, for the
coming winter, let happy home
be included. AS each one shares
it's privileges, SO each one can do
something to secure and to
it. Let oil combine to
this end, from the Oldest to the

may have in store for us, Of out

Business continues dull, but from every
section of the country we receive very
gratifying reports concerning the crops of
every kind, and bountiful harvest will
undoubtedly bring general revival in
trade. In fact, the business outlook at
present appears brighter and more hope
ul than for several years past.
Owing to the recent heavy rains but lit
tie wheat has been threshed and conse-
quently very little of the new crop has
reached this market. Farmers generally
seem disposed to sell at $l.OO per bushels,
for prime white, and should the market
fully open at that price, which we believe
it will, many thousand dollars, in the
course of a few weeks, will be added to
our present circulation.
