Filial Love.

There Is not Oh earth q more lovely
light than the unwearied care and At
tention of children TO their parents.
Nliallove will keep men from sin and
crime. There never will come a time,
while their parents live, when their
children will not be under obligations
to them. The older they grow, the
more need will there be for assiduous
care and attention to their wants. The
venerable brow and frosty hair speak
loudly to the love and compassion OF
the child. If sickness and infirmity
make them at times fretful, the younger
folk should bear with them patiently,
not forgetting that time ere long may

Peace and Mappiness.

How different is peace from happi-
ness Happiness Is the result of harmo.
ny between our wants as creatures and
the world without |; peace Ia the har-
mony between MS as spiritual beings
and the Father OF our spirits. The one
is a. cbangeable as the objects or cir
cumstances on which IL, for the mo.
ment, relies; the other Is az unchange-
able as the God on whom It eternally
rests. We may thus possess ut once
real happiness and real peacs, yet
either may exist without the other.
Nay, more, happiness may be destroyed
by God in order that the higher blessing
of peace may be possessed; but never
will he take away peace to give happi
ness. Happiness without peace Is tenn.
poral, but peace along with happiness
is eternal.

What slre Clerk Says.
TCoMMUNICATED.1


In regard to the answer TO "a Jus
Complaint" in Wednesdays issue O
| the REPUBLICAN, would like to max,
q few remarks. The gentleman thai
gave the answer to A ust Complaint
says that he has, according to his OWE
statement. worked or been connected
with nearly every branch of business
pertaining to farmers, butchers and
grocers, and that he thinks that he
knows q good bit about beef and pork.
Now, with all due regard to the gen
tleman In question, from his own state.
ment I would infer that he knows very
little about anything. My reason for
thinking SO is that he says that you
seldom see sick hog. Now, any one
that has had any experience at all
knows that of all the animals used as
food for the human being there is none
30 liable TO disease as the hog, for &C.
cording to scripture the devil is In the
hog. Again, he says that some butchers
In the market houses sell goat meat for
veal. Any one with common sense
would know better than that. II he
had said that they sold goat for mutton
then 1t would not have been so bad, but
to suppose for moment that any one,
much less butcher, would attempt to
sell goat for veal is proof positive that
the gentleman had not the remotest
idea of what he was talking about. He
also says that the butchers and papers
had better shut mp, for he heard the
clerk of the market say that he had
several fights with the SINNERS, and
that he could not do anything with
them. That statement l emphatically
deny, for have never had o word with
simmer or q butcher since I have held
the position as clerk Of the market, but
have said that under the law that now
exists it is impossible to do anything
with the simmer. He also says that
there are many things that he could
give away, but he won't. L think he
has given himself away. According to
my way Of thinking, all Of the growing
and agitation that is going on through
the papers and on the streets about the
amounts to nothing. In due
time think that can safely say that
every thing pertaining to the markets
will be adjusted to the satisfaction of
all concerned. WBI. 7. WRIT,
Clerk of the Market.
