Encourage Others-You Need
it Too.
Many persons, in various pursuits of
life, have abandoned success,
given up their efforts, r.-j-t , me ut-
ter ciphers in society, simply far want
of a little encouragement at the proper
time. We shall guard very carefully
ngninsl the—too common—practice and
fault rf discouraging others in any
laudable vocation. When wo use the
term Uuuloh'r. in this connection, we
wish it distinctly undetsfood that we
do not use it in its usual sense. We
take flic position ill it anything is land
utdo that i- honest and legitimate.
What, sir! is the position of an ostler,
or that of a teamster, laudable '/FFe,c e ,
just as much so- if faithfully and hon
orably pursued—os merchandising,
farming, journalism, tho various pi o
fessioos of fine arts, and is only rcgeid
cd as raiL.i- degrading, Ly people of no
sense, nnd less principles.
The great fault of otir people i-, that
idleness is too much encouraged, and
horest toil- especially of a physical na
turc —as much di. couraged Even the
children of tho pn-seot day, turn up
their small noses, and sneer (it manual
labor, however hones’. This may boa
tuning truth to some over-indulgent
parents ;if s”, we cannot help it; that
makes it none fho less true. Reader
nro you guilty of ridiculing anything
that ia honest, beostn - called labor ? if
so, you should have the pity and con
tempt of every intelligent man and wo
tna-'. Just such imbccils as you, have
driven many a well-mean ng—though
soft-headed young man from eotno
honorable trodo or occupation, and have
caused them, perhaps, to bring dis
grace upon nged parents, and end their
own miserable enreor in notno Stato
prison, or, vvliat is \mso, pot haps ott
tho gnllows ; wltori ( hoy wero qualified
in rntny wy j , to have beoomo orna
ments to-souietj, j-ist by hjuK‘ •
litilo cnflourngviuont from Ihoso by
whole influence thry were surroundi-d
and governed. Think what you may
do for ttu individual, by speaking o llv
one word of uUcourngciucut, and then
reflect whnt can bo—what Inis 10, it —
done by n few words or actions of cn
f'oinngctncnt, wh n n hope mny have been
almost got e. How tinny shipwrecks have
been averted by tho bravo and dar
ing conduct, as w. 11 as bold and cn
oourngciug words of commanders, the
crew all in oot fusien, and tho most ut
ter consternation prevailin'); hope n!-
luos' gone—tho hands, win's duty it
was to man her, all dbcuirnged, it may
be, have ceased every iffurt, when the
vneourngoing words of tho commander
is heard, above the shrieks and crios of
the affrighted multitude, and new en
ergy and liopo are revived, and the no
ble ship rides gallantly and safely into
port. Tl.is pieturo is not too t ighly
colored ;it is t r uo to life, and nothing
more forcibly illustrates human life.—
Many have bo, n saved from moral, men
tal and financial wreck, by cncourage
incat from friends, and many have sunk
—to iisc no more for want of a little
et.courgrmi ut. We have in our minds
eye, a ease in point: A good man, one
who had seen hotter days, had readied
• poiu', iu financial matters, at which
U seemed that he must stop —to ad
▼sueo without some onc<>urng r ivieot, was
impossible, and as no human being cun
lire over yesterday or last week, lie
could certainly never go back. Ho was
mechanic, a master workman, but lie
conld not tako c nlraets. us ho could
uot gi't money advanced on any job
snd could not employ laborer- for any
thing but the cash. In this condition,
lr “good Samaritan’’—an ohl friend
cnuic to him and asked him why be
didn't take cotitrucis, as in former
times and go to work. Ah, said lie,
‘I cannot get any funds wiih which to
pay labor, ru.’’ His friend asked him
if bo bad tried, which question was an
swered afliruiativ.lv; bn*, raid he, “1
■can g<-t no one to n-i-t me. I am
dooegooe ep witlt.vnl lul t . The “gooA
J-amautau' asked him what anvuiut he
conld commence cpmtiou with, and
when told, furnished the m-c'scary tutu,
in a tew dajA this hono-t, yet almost
lost mar, had as much wink under cou
tract as be could dispatch fur a I me.
and-so continued to noiivo contracts,
and in a short while, was sgam on the
road to prosperity, usc'ulneas and bap
J-UICBS.
We£hi:k our M.iker that wv w-re
rrised I* insaro the most prof utid res- t
pect for honest labor, in whatever shape
or mauDCr we bavo seen it.
Il is—always bas been, and we (rust
will ever be—our plcasuro to encour
age every one in the pursuit of any
laudable enterprise, profession, or oc
cupation. We love to tako.them by the
band,'and bid them God speed. Nor
aro we—wo say it gratefully—ashamed*
to labor with our bauds or head, for the
welfare of others ; and like others, we
feci and acknowledge the need of en
couragement from others, and as ours
i. a position, tho intere-ts of which are
identified with every class of industry
and every commerc al interest, we have
a l ight to hope for encouragement from
all the good and wine.
Let us. especially, encourage tho
young to refrain from misspending
their procious time in idleness anj in
dulgence of vicious practices. Let us
urge upon them the necessity of culti
vating their minds, hearts and hands,
in that which is n-eful and good.
Encourage the children to attend
sabbath school, church and prayer-meet
ings ; to tell the truth and Imte a lie ;
t a-sist father and mother in every
| availablo manner, and feel that they
I are li moiing their God, their parent",
1 and hetnselvcs , ami by thus living,
they will become an l.onor to th ir

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER,
Suggestions for the Improvement or (lie
House of RepresrntntlvrS" The Defects
of the Present Hull Hint it shot (inn
Would Have Done The Presidential
and Congressional Excursion to flies
ter, Pa An Ohio man who did not
come to Washington—The new Dollars
The Cameron Sherman Wedding,
etc., etc,
| From our own correspondent.J
Washington, It. 0, Apr. G, 1878.
It has long been a souroo of dissatis
faction and complaint, that under the
present organization arid airangemcnt
of our Uou Q e of Representatives, it is
almost impossible for a speaker on the
floor, unless ho be gifted with extraor
dinary vocal and reformatory powers
to make himself hoard by his colb agu s
iu distant portions of the hull, and in
the reporter’s gallery. My daily visits
to Congress have convinced me of the
justicc- of this complaint, and of how
much better it would he if some plan
liko that recently suggested by Mr.
Hewitt,.of New York, were adopted,
by which most—if not all—of the phys
ical obstacles to debate which now ex
ist, would be removed ; improving the
stylo of speaking and making the house
a fur more attractive field for able men.
Mr. flewiil’s plan is, bib fly, to di
via- naif or iu. nouse in two, ar
range ono half of it with benches fac
ing each other, on the two sides of the
house, as is tho osso in tho Engli-h
House of Customs. This half of t’e
liou.-o should ho sacred to debate, and
no business should ho pi-miiitod there
hut tho discussion of hills and resolu
tions, and notion upon them. The oili
er half of tho house should ho filled
with desks, as at present ; and at the
do u s bet wcan tho two halls, there should
boa gong or bell to notify the members
when a division w-s demanded or a note
to be talon. Those who choose to lis
ten, or take part in tho debate, would
be in tho hall with tho beuohcs, whi’o
those who li.oi more import ml duties
to attend to, would bo in tbo ball with
tho desks, within n -inglo step of the
odter ball. Widi such a ehtuge would
come ease of -peaking, n quieter tone,
bettor thinking on tho t’oet bettor taste
in orn’ory, better progress in every
thing that makes profit.ihlo business
diacu-Mon, nnd hotter pr g.-tss til-o in
tho public business.
As 1 returned from tho reporter’s
gallery yesterday, lifter having listened
for mi l our or so t,, an amusing sally
between Ren Hutlcr and .Mr. Cox, of
New York, in reference to the much
contested Doorkeepership -made vn
caut by Mr. i’alk’s sum-nary dismissal,
on TLiur-d iy -and was on my way to
the Senate to fee wh.it was going on
there. I stv standing together in the
lobby of the Senate chamber, engaged
in free tun* easy oinversa’ion, Go 1 , loui
Scott, Jny (* u!d, C. I’. Huntington,
and Sidney Dillon. At the distance ot
a few feet, with his larboard car ileva
ted to the proper nng’o of communica
tion, was John Roach, the fatuous iron
ship builder, of Chester, Pa. A shoi
guu loaded with buckshot, and dischar
ged t v n accomplished fowler, would
have swept the famous quintette dear
out of tbo region of interest in sublicn
rv concerns. At a f .ir calculation, those
live men reptesent'-d not Lss than two
hundred millions of dollars, and could
probably have tbrir ebook honored for
more money than any other tivo men
path'rod together iu any other city in
the ci it ty'; and ret there are people
who say that Wushing’on is noi a big
city I
Toro Scott, Jay G uld, and their
confreres tire hire to lot,by for their
railroad, and the object of Mr. Roach's
visit, "a* to invite his Senatorial
friends to join the excursion which left
fur Phe-ter ibis m ruing, to witness the
1 ,uno: ing of one of Ins large s'Camrrs
the "Pity o( Rio Janeiro,” I believe
This party included the I’iestdcn', all
tho members of the Cabinet, wi-h the
exception of Postmaster (Tenoral Key,
who is on hi- way to Havana, Pubs, -
many members of the corps ji/Jotna
ft.-;m-, and about a liundrtd Senators
and m tubers of Oongtvs*. They wdl '
leave (' iett*r this evening, slo p off
lh>ir h -nd:ieh.s t'-morrow Sunday— .
and be "ou dee*” ag dn Monday m ro

The rum n ext-i - ve’y circulated iu
the pr. ss that Mr. Hayes will spend j
j the summer in Ohio,provei. upon in- !
quiry at the White H-iuse to be un- |
true. He will take up his old list sum- i
mer quarters in one of the cottages in i
the grounds of the “soldier’s homo
the same which the late President Liu
| coin occupied with his family ; but it
; has b en enlarged and improved since
j his time.
Naturally, when on Ohio man is
im sing from his uative hearth, his
, friends look tor him in Washington,
| a ”d so when ex- Congressman Vauce
left borne and dilu’t turn no here as
expects 1, it wa- at oneo concluded that
lie had been killed, or was crazy, or
' was a defaulter, or had ran off with a
I woman, t account for his abnormal and
extraordinary deflection from the road
to the seat of Government and to of
fice, Mr. Vanco has many friends here,
who arc loath to believu that he has
i been guilty of any wrong, and denoutice
as fabrications, the sousational stories
j recently telegraphed from here by the
correspondent of the New York Trib
une which assert that lie had been guil
ty of petty thefts, such as the purloin
ing of books from stores, etc., and of
oven still graver offences which would
i ~übj ;ct him, if found, to criminal pros
ecution.
A change lias been made in the coin
age of the silver dollar, which will ena
ble it to wear belter. The much abu
sed spread animal with wing-, which is
supposed to be an eagle, is still theie on
one hide, bu' lias been depressed be
liw die rim and g-neral surface of the
coin. The head of tho Goddess of Lib
erty, on the other side, has also been
flatu-ucd arid a- press and, to prevent cou
j -taut friction and w.-aring away. The
; hard steel dies aro working much bet
ter now than at first, consequently the
Coins issued lately have a smoother ap
peiiririco and hotter finish than those
I fie at turned out at the mints. Tho on
ly tr üble is, that the supply is far from
j equal to the demand 1
The talk among fashionable circles
just now, is the Cameroo-Sherman wed
ding, which is to come off’ on May !)'h,
and promises to be a most brilliant af
fair. The lroußHca.u, made in New
York, is said to be worth many thous
ands of dollars, and tho presents will bo
simply supcib. Old Simon Cameron,
the fattier of the groom, bas publicly
declared that he is going to “let him
self out” on this oecasion, and he is,
generally speukiug, a man of his word!
liret iiirte is in the city, and called
upon the President yesterday. And
ihat is about all the news on itie lupin,
with the exception of an order scut to
the Navy Yard to-day, to clear up sev
eral hundred heavy guns, which have
lain storod there since the war, and
put them iu serviceable condition.—
What these guns arc to be used for, is,
as yet, a mystery ; hut it has probably
no connection with tho threatening ns
poet of affairs iu Europe.

To understand our method of bti-inese, we have endeavored to explain it in
unmistakable language and for which wo request a carsful perusal We beg to
caution tno public to try to diserimii ato between our dealings and that of mer
chants who offer a few domestic goods only cheap as a bait, to catch the ftuwarj ,
and make them believe that they sell everything equally as low; the iutelligeua
reader will easily understand this. We offer our goods for inspection to every
body./V ik will send samples of Dry Goods, with prices attached, to any one who
will write us for them and give everyone a chance to see for themselves.

upon application, send such samples, with prices attached, as they may desire
when they can form a much better opinion and select for themselves Not 1= 5
than a million of people have dealt with us and wo are sure we have satisfied a i.
Any one displeased with his purchase can return the goods to us at our expense
and we will return the money. On twenty dollars w.irth of goods we prepay
freight to the nearest station. YVe make no charges f r packing or drayage, YY’a
dou’t sell one article low and make it up on the others.
WE RETATL OUR GOOES AT WHOLE3ABE PRICES,
Which accounts for our Wonderful Sncccss.

one yard as low as we would ten thousand. Those who are tird of paying ex
