Three Good Lessons.

When was eleven years old (said Mr..
S., an eminent American merchant, }
my grandfather had a fine flock of
sheep, which were carefully tended
during the war of those times. l was
the shepherd boy, and my business was
to watch the sheep in the fields. A boy
who was more fond of his book than
the sheep was sent with me, but left
the work to me, while he lay under
trees and read. / did not like that, and
finally went to my grandfather and
complained of it. shall never forget
the kind smile of the old gentleman as
he said;
"NeVer mind, Jonathan, my boy; if
you watch the sheep you will have the
sheep"
What does grandfather mean by
that" Isaid to myself; /" l don't expect
to have sheep" My desires were mod
crate. l could not exactly make out
in my mind what it was, but he had
been to Congress in Washington's time !;
so concluded it was all right, and l
went back contentedly to the sheep.
After l got into the field [ could not
keep the words out of my head. Then
| thought of Sundays lesson: "Thou
hast been faithful over a few things; |
will make thee ruler over many things"
| began to see through it, "Never you
mind who neglects his duty; be you
faithful and you will have your re-
ward"
l received a second lesson soon after
came to New York as a clerk to the
late Mr.. r. A merchant from Ohio,
who knew me, came to buy.goOds, and
said Make yourself so useful that
they can not do without you." took
his meaning quicker than l did that of
my grandfather.
Well, worked upon these two ideas
until Mr.. r. offered me a partnership
In the business. The first morning
after the partnership was made known,
Mr.. G., the old tea merchant, called to
congratulate me, and he said: " You
are all right now. I have only one
word of advice to give you. Be careful
whom you walk the streets with" That
was lesson number three
And what valuable lessons they are I!
Fidelity in all things; do your best for
your employers; carefulness about your
associates. Let every boy take these
lessons home and study them we'll.
They are the foundation stones of char
acter and honorable success.-N. Y.

Discussion followed as to the neces-
sity of defending suits against the COM
pany by James Pursell, Of Washington
G. H.; General Jones, Of Waverly; D.
F. Monahan, George Spence and others.
DR.. A. Dunlap, of this city, presented
resolution favoring such defense and
pledging stockholders to a two per cent.
subscription to support it, which was
adopted. William N. Whiteley said
this meeting was held upon his respOn-
sibility, and was for consultation as to
the best course to pursue. He hoped
nine of the best men in interest would
be chosen next day. The meeting re-
suited in the appointment of the follow
ing committee, to meet for consultation
at the Council Chamber this morning
at nine O'Clock: J. w. Boyd and w. P
Laughlin, of Greenfield; L. H. HOus-

nc ohio Farmers Ins. Co.

Has the words "stock Plan" printed
upon the face of all its policies strictly
according to law, by which it is abso-
lutely impossible for it to make an as
sessment even if it desired to. Com
petition is always honorable and legiti-
mate, lying is equally despicable and
the liar is a fraud. Any agent laying
claim to any honor or integrity cannot
represent that any holder Of policy in
the Ohio Farmers either may be or ever
has been assessed. Any such represen-
tation by any one is at the expense Of
truth, and is utterly dishonest and false.

ment by its wonderful cures, curing
thousands of hopeless cases. Over one

1t is clear enough that the Democrats
are bound to have a majority by States
in Congress if they haye to steal it.
Their plan to steal seat from Minne-
sofa and put that notorious demagOgue,
Ignatius DOnnelly, into it, is easily un-
derstood. 1t is much worse than the
proposed theft of Congressman 0rth's
seat in the Indiana delegation, but it is
a safer theft to make. Minnesota is a
sure Republican State, and an outrage
like this upon it will only increase the
Republican majority; but Indiana is a
doubtful State, and the theft of seat
from there might convert it into a sure
Republican one. The calculation is a
shrewd one, but it will have the effect
of rousing the country to the peril
which is before it. There is absolutely
no safety save in the election of Re
publican President by vote so over
whelming that even fraudulent DEM
ocratic Congress will not dare to set
the will of the people aside.-N. 7.

Jordan Davis, of Fairfield township,
is extremely anxious to hear from his
son Jesse, who left home one year ago
last July, and, with the exception of a
letter written at Athens, Ohio, a few
days thereafter, has had no tidings of
him whatever. Jesse left with tenn
perance lecturer named Shoenberger,
or something like it, who lectured at
Lexington, Leesburg, and perhaps in
Hillsboro. He is young man Of good
habits, well educated, having taught
school several terms, and is now about
% years old. He is of medium height,
weighs perhaps $50 lbs, and of light
complexion and red hair. His father
knows of no reason for his failure to
write to them. He said when starting
away that he wanted to see the world,
but that should not have prevented him
writing to family and friends. Mr..
Davis would be much pleased to hear
from his son, and any information con-
cerning him will be thankfully received.
His address is Jordan Davis, Highland

Mr.. Gibson said, in considering the dangers
and evils which threaten this country, he fully
sympathised with the Hon. Noble that there are
dangers which were enumerated by him-excess
of maIes-bu5 more especially the sad disease OF
leprosy. The decrease of the Hawaiian race
awakens the profound interest of every lover Of
his kind. The dispropOrtIon of the sexes showing
an excess of about Is, 1000 males, in a population
of about 6 5000, Is a fearful subject for the NOR
alist to contemplate. No one can deny that lep-
rosy and other diseases are threatening the cOun-
try, and we might dwell largely on the subject if
we could see a way how to meet them and how to
dispose Of them, but he could hardly appreciate
with the Hon. Noble that the fact of our being
thwarted in securing Indian immigration is a cal
amity to be considered in connection with them,

that no license be allowed for Hilo, and no ma

pointed out the convenience the House had grant
ed to the Press. and in return he expected cor
rect reports. His constituents would no doubt
read the Gazette and infer that he had betrayed
