BY S. J. EOW. CLEAKFIELD, PA WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3, 1870. VOL. 16.-N0. 47. LIFE 13 WHAT WE MAZE IT. Let's often talk of nobis deeds, And rarer of the bail enes, And sing about oar happy days. And not about the sad ones. TVe were not made to fret and sigh, And when grief sleeps to wake it; Bright happiness is standing by This life is what we make it. Let's find the sunny side of men, Or be believers in It ; A. light there is in every soul That takes the pains to win it. Ob ! there's a slumbering good in all, And we perchance may wake it; Our hands contain the magic wand This lifo is what we make it. Than here's to those whose loving hearts, Shed joy and light about them ! Thanks be to them fer countle.s gems We ne'er had known without them. Oh ! this should be a happy world To all who may partake it; The lault's our own if it is not This life is what we make it. TflE PARSIMONIOUS CLEEZ. "Wesson," said Mr. Dayton to one of his clerks a-; they were alone in the spacious counting room which was attached to the hrge itore of which Mr. Day'.on was pro frit-tor, "give me leave to say that I don't think your dres sufficiently genteel to ap pear as clerk, in a fashionable store." A deep biu.-h suffused the face of the vounc man, and in spite of his endeavor to rpros it, a tear glisicaed iu his full, Hack eyes. "Did I not know your salary wa3 suffi cient to procure more geutcel habiliments, I would increase it." "My salary is amply laree, sir," replied Vestcn, with a mortified air, but with that proud independence ef feeling, of which even poverty ha J not been able to deprive hint. "Oblige me, then, by ' changing jour ap j are!, and prccentinfc a different appear anoe in the future. You are wanted in I he More." Weston turned and left his eni-iht-T. who muttered as he took up his 1'iI'iT, "How I detest these parsimonious fd!uw." Mr. Layton was a widower, and hid hut one child, a daughter, who was the pride of his declining years. She was sood an angel, and beiutiful as ;he was good. She was simple in her taste and appear ance. Such was Laura Dayton when Weston May fir.-t became an inmate of her father's lwu-c and what wonder is it that he tcon irariied to love her with an ardent affection. Their tongues neer gave utterance to what they fe't, but the language of their eyes ouMnotle mistaken. Weston nas the v. ry sou! ot honor, and although he per. c:ivf J n il h pleasure that he was not dis tasteful to her, still he felt that he must n.jner ths passion that glowed in his own h.art. "1 iiia-t not win her heart," he paid to h:m"!f; "I am penniless, and her father 'ill never consent to our union." Thus he rea-nnfj. and thus he manfully endeavored t.)ul..ne what he considered an ill fated pavi"ii. Laura had many suitors, and some were worthy of her ; but che refused them with decisive, yet gentle firmness. Her father wondered at her conduct but r'uM not strive to alter her inclination. He was in the decline t.f life and wished to se; her happily settled ere he departed from this world. It was not long before he sur mej that young May was the cause of her indifference to others. The pleasure she to 4 in hearing him praised, the blush wr.seli mantled her face when their eyes met, t rved to convince the old gentleman that tiiey took more than common interest' in ea.'h other. He forbore to make nny re nwk upon the subject, and was not so dis p!ea3i at the thought as Weston imagined be would he. W i-ston May had now been three years in Lis erjplor. Mr. Dayton ki cw nothing of Lis fati'ily ; tut his strict integrity, good n.orals ar,d pleasing manners conspired in ii:si.ini; him esteem Weston more highly. He pV-e I unbounded confidence iu him aud as very proud of bim. He wished him to '"he as well as others, and had often wondered at the scantiness of his wardrobe; for al'iiouch Wcv.on dresred with the most "upu!oj.s rsard to neatness, his clothes JS almost threadbare, which Mr. Daytoo 'hvj-ht r receded from a niggardly dispo snd accordingly he addressed hixn P-'n :!:.- subject as before related. S ' ?ker this conversation Mr. Dayton 'r-:t hoi:,e in business. As he was riding i'to a pretty little village, he alighted at tiie 't.or ot a cottage an 1 requested a (hint iA water. The mistress, with an ease in J politeness which told that she had not a.wij, been an humble cottager.inrited him to inter. Hecoruplied, and a scene of neat Besi an 1 poverty met his gaze, such as he til never before witnessed. The furniture cwsnrip of nothing more than was actual it f.e.'euiry, was so clean that it cast an air fcomf)rt all around. A venerable old ttiri sat by the window with his staff in his Land. His clothes were whole, but they Homed a counterpart of Joseph's coat of wny colors. '1 his is your father, I presume," said -je addressing her. "It is, sir." ''He seems quite aged." 'He is in his eighty-third year, and has tnrvived all his children except myself." 'Have you always resided here ?' 0. sir. mv linahand wa nni wflltY,tr . -. j " -'"j i cat endorsing ruined him and we were re used to this. He soon after died, and two oi my children followed him." ''Have you any children living ?" "One, sir, who is my only support. My own health is so feeble that I cannot do much, and father being blind and deaf, needs a great deal of attention. My son will not tell me how much his salary is, but I am sure he sends me nearly all of it." "Then he is not at home?" "No, sir, he is a clerk in New York." "Indeed ! Pray, what is his name?" "Weston May." "Weston May ! Is it possible 1 Why he is my clerk. I left him in charge of my store only two weeks ago." Explanations followed, and Mr. Dayton soon left, promising to call some other time. "Noble fellow," Baid he mentally, as" he was riding along and ruminating upon the call. "Noble fellow, I believe he loves my girl, and he may have her, and part of my mouey, too. Let me see," and he fell into a reverie ; and by the time he reached home he formed a plan he determined to execute. How it terminated we shall see. Full of his new plan he entered the breakfast room where Laura was waiting his appearance. "So Weston is going to England." "Sir," said Laura, dropping her coffee cup, "goinc to England?" "To be sure, what of it, child?" "Nothing only 1 ws shall be rather lonesome," replied she, vainly endeavoring to suppress her tears. "Come, come, Laura, tell me, do you love Weston? You never deceived me, don't do it now." "No, well, I I do love him most sin cerely." "I thought so," replied fie, as he left the room. "Weston," said he, as he entered the store, "you expect to go iuto the country, shortly, don't you?" "Yes, sir, in about two weeks." "If it would not be inconvenient, I wish you would defer it a few woeks longer," said Mr. Dayton. "I will, sir, with pleasure, if it will oblige you. "It will greatly oblige me, for Laura is to be married in about six weeks, and I wish you would attend the wedding." "Laura married I" said Weston, starting as if he had been shot. ' 'To Le sure. What ails i he boy ?' ' "Nothing, sir ; only it was rather sudden unexpected." "It is rather sudden ; but I am an old man, and wish her to have a protector be fore I die. I am glad you can stay to the wedding." "Indeed, sir, I cannot stay." said Wes ton, forgetting what he had just said. ' A ou cannot! Why, you just now said you would." "Yea air ; but my business requires my presence, aud I must go." "But you said you would with pleasure." ''Command tne iu anything else, bat iu this I cannot oblige you." "Weston, tell me frankly, do you love my girl?" "Sir !" Westcu seemed like cne waking from a dream. "Do you love my girl?" "I do sir." "Will you give me ycur mother for her?" Mr. Dayton repeated the incident already related, and iu conclusion said : "And now, my boy, I have written to your mother, and offered myself, and she has accepted ; what have you to say?" "That I am the happiest fellow on earth, aud proud to call you father," replied the young man with a joyful face. A few wecKs after a double wedding took place at Mr. Dayton's mansion, and soon after a s:gn went over a certain store, bear ing the inscription of "Dayton & Co." Young man, you may learn from this that it is not fine clothes that will win for you the esteem ot those around you. An Anecdote With a moral. A young lady friend of ours met in company a young gentleman who had an excellent opinion of himself. During conversation he introduced the snl ject of matrimony, and expatiated at length upon the kind of wife he expected to marry ; that is, if ever he should take the decisive step. The honored lady must be wealthy, beautiful, accomplished, amia ble, etc., etc. His listener quietly waited until he ended, and then completely con founded him by asking iu the coolest pos sible manner: "And pray, sir what have you to offer in return for all this?" The young man stammered, reddened a little, and walked away. An editor who has been lately married, in discoursing upon love, says : "As the unseen violet betrays itself by its odor, so will love, however carefully concealed, discover itself by impalpable emanations from the heart that forms its arbor." Arbor, forsooth 1 The idea of a man's heart forming an arbor t You might a well talk about his liver con structing a chickeu-coop, or his alimentary canal developing into a wood-shed. Our druggists sell a kind of vermifuge that will set that editor on his pins again. It goes right to the afflicted spot, and no fooling. If he takes a bottle or two he may recover. A Model Speech. An Ohio member of a School Board delivered the following speech aC a recent sitting of the Board : "I rise for to that is, to make a motion, which is as follows : Resolved, That there are no need to build such costive school houses as some of this ere board is proposin to 'rect. No, Mr. Cheerinan.I'm 'posed to spendin money for more housen. The old ones are pretty good yet. and for to go for to build a pretty slick house which will cost $10,000, or more yet, its all wasted." A CHILD'S PEAYEE. 0 sweet Lord Jesus ! hear me speak ; I am a little child ; And yet, dear Jesus, I may seek Christ, who on children smiled. 1 wish to speak my daily prayer, And ask thy blessing new. And gain of thy deaf love some share t Oh ! bear my simple vow. I'll ever love Thy precious name; ' Gcd's holy laws I'll keep ; I Will do naught te merit blame: Oh i bless me while I sleep. The disobedient Squirrel, "Now," said Mrs. Grey Squirrel, as she tucked the mots and leaves around her two young squirrels, "do you keep still. Don't you stir out of bed till we eome back." "Where are you going V said one of the little squirrel"., whom we shall call Hetty. "We are going to a hickory grove to store away some nuts for winter. If you are not good little squirrels, you will not get any of them." "May we not look out of the hole ?" The hols was an opening made from the outside of the tree to a hollow within it. It was made by a red-capped wood-pecker in search of insects for food. The hollow fur nished ample room for the squirrels; the hole was the door. "May we not look out of the hole?" said lTetty. "No you must not go to the hole," said Mrs. Grey Squirrel. "If you so to the hole, you wi 11 go out on the limbs of the tree, some sportsman may see you and shoot you. "What is a sportsman?" said the other young; squirrel whom we shall call Harry. A sportsman Li a creature who has two legs, and who takes pleasure in killing birds and squirrels that never do him, or anybody else, any harm." "It must be a queer animal one that has queer ideas of fun," said Harry. "It would be fun for one to put some buckshot into your jacket. Do you keep out of his way." "We shall never know anything," said Hetty, if you always keep us shut up in this dark place." "You mind what t tell you, if you know what is good for you." "You arid father go out." "We are old squirrels and know how to take care of ourselves. Come," said she to Mr. Grey Squirrel, "we must be going." Mr. Grey Squirrel had been sitting on a knot near the nest, and had spent part of the time during which Mrs. Grey Squirrel had been laying down the law to her chil dren, in scratching his ears, first with one hind foot and then with the other. When the old ones were gone, the young ones began to talk without much reserve just as little boys and girls are apt to do in similar circumstances. "I think," said Hetty, "that it is too bad to keep us shut up here all the time." "We are not kept shut up here all the time," said Harry, "don't you remember what a nice time we had yesterday when moth-r took us out to give us a lesson in jumping? Mother thinks it best for us to stay la to-day?" "I don't think father thinks so. lie didn't say anything." "He lets mother do the talking." "I know he lets her do most of the talk ing and the working, I wish I could have seen him alone before he went, I believe he would have let me look out of the hole." Sometimes girls whe n their mother has refused them permission to do a thing, go and get permission of their father, but squir rels ought not to follow bad examples. "I guess," said Harry, "we had better go to sleep. The time never seems long when one is asleep." So saying, he put his fore paw over his ears, and closed his eyes and was soon fast asleep. "Harry is asleep, mother is away, and father is willing, I think I will take a look out of the hole." Something seemed to whisper, "your mother told you to keep stilL" "Yes but father did not tell me so. Be sides it is not good for my health to be shut up here all day. I shall die for want of air. Parents ought not to wish to have their children sufier." Thus she went on trying to pcrsude her self that it would be right for her to disobey her mother. If you did not know that she was a squirrel, you would think she was a boy or girl ; for she did ju.st as boys and girls often do when they begin to seek ex cuses for disobeying their parents. They almost always find some that they think will io. Hetty crawled carefully out of the nest without disturbing Harry, and went to the hole. "Oh, how beautiful everything looks," said she ; "I think it is mean in mother trying to keep us shut up in that dark place. How fresh the air smells ! It has done me a great deal of good already. I think I will go out on that limb a little way. I can get a better taste of the breeze." So she went out on the limb. She brush ed her hair with her fore paws, and shook up her tail, and bent it gracefully, as she thought, over berback, and looked around wishing there were some squirrels there to see her. It occurred . to her that her mother might be jealous of her beauty, and that that was her reasons for confining her to the nest. While she was indulging these pleasant thoughts she heard a sharp yelp or barking at the foot of the tree. She looked down and saw a dog there. He was look ing up at her, and his eyes sparkled. "lie admires me," thought she, "see how his eyes shine ! His voice is not pleasant, but he is plainly in earnest" So he was, for he kept looking op and barking, and jumping about, and putting his fore feet up the trunk of the tree. "He wants to come up and see me, but he can't climb. I suppose he would like to have me come down to him, but I can't think of such a thing, especially as this is our fisrt meet ing." So she ran out further on the limb to show him how gracefully she could move. This made him dance and bark the more vigorously. "What do you see, Jack?" said a man with a gun in his hand. Jack sat down and looked steadily at Hetty. "Oh ! I see. I'll bring him down." He raised his gun and fired, but at that instant, Hetty changed her position. The man failed to bring her down to Jack as he said he would, and only brought down a small piece of her tail. Jack watched it as it came down slowly sniffed at it when it reached the ground, and turned nway in disgust. When Hetty felt the force of the shot which struck her brush and heard the rattle of other shot around her, she was frighten ed as she was never frightened before. She darted into the hole, and plunged into the nest, and tried to cover heiselt up in the moss and leaves. Of course she waked Harry up, who cried out "Hallo, what is the matter?" but he got no answer. "Where have you been ?" still no answer. "What has happened to your brush ?" No answer. "You have been disobeying your mother, and have not your pay for it. Anything but a bobtailed squirrel ! ' He saw Hetty's breast heave. He pulled aside the moss and opened her eyelids. They were full of tears. He began to pitv her. He said no more by way of reproach. He began to think what he could do to sof ten his mother's anger so that she would not be too hard on poor Hetty. We will leave him to his thoughts, and Hetty to her remtne. Bright Side. An item in one of our exchanges says "a snake twenty feet long is frightening the people of Rhode Island." We don't be lieve a word of it. Such stories will do to publish out in Kansas, but it is rather too thin to be believed here ; because we know that a snake of that length has no chance to fool around in a State of that size. The only thing it could do is to lay itself in a circle round the edge, and even then it would have to swallow part of its tail to prevent over-lapping. It's of no use to start such stories in a country where people study ge ography. An exchange says : "And now we hear of another man up in Elruira who has married a girl while he already had three wives liv- ine." It does seem strange how absent minded some men are ! We should think a fellow who bad three women on his hands would never have a chance to forget about it. But this singular forgetfulness seems to seize them, no matter if they marry a whole woman's rights' convention. Every man who is married ought to tie a knot in his hand kerchief so that he would remember about it. It would save a great deal of trouble. They hare a queer way of amusing them selves in Auburn. A party catch a toad, then a couple of dozen fire-flies or "light, ning bugs." They make the toad swallow the bugs and afterward put him under a glass dish. The little flics keep up a flash ing inside for some minutes and illuminate the toad all over. It makes bim look just like a jack o-'lantern. The effect is declared to be comical. A down-East paper says that pursuasive and humbugging agents are about in that neighborhood selling lightning-rods. One old lady told an agent she had no fear of lightning, but she had always been afraid of thunder. "Just so," he replied ; "we can meet your case exactly. The square rods are lightning rods.and the round ones thun der rods." One of the biggest reptile stories yet is that of an alligator near Midway, S. C, which a planter has used in harness to do his plowing. The animal weighs 350 pounds and is said to be perfectly docile and thor oughly "broken in" to bis work. This al legation is somewhat astounding, to say the least. It costs three cents less to raise a pound of cotton now than it did before emancipa tion was proclaimed. There is still a profit of $31 50 per bale of 45.) pounds, or $90, 000,000 on a crop of 3,000,000 bales. This is exclusive of transportation to the seaboard and the charges of middlemen. A Dutchman was relating his marvelous escape from drowning, when twelve of his companions were lost by the upsetting of a boat, and he alone saved. "And how did you escape their fate ?" asked one. "I did not go in te pote," quietly replied the Dutchman. A sailor passing through a graveyard, saw on one of the tombstones "I still live." This was too much for Jack, who shifting his quid, ejaculated : "Well I've heard say there were cases in which a man may lie ; but if I was dead I'd own it 1" A precocious boy, in a public school out West, who stands high in geography, was recently asked by his teacher where Africa was located. He promptly answered, "All over the United States." A girl hearing the lady of her house, at dinner, ask her husband to bring "Dombey and Son" with him when he came to tea, had two extra'plates on the rapper table for the supposed visitors. Minority Convention. A convention of delegates from the sev eral counties of the State of Pennsylvania of such persons only as are favotable to the movement to secure minority representa tion will be held at the city of Reading on Wednesday, the 31st day of August next.at eleven o'clock, a. m. The convention will consist of two dele gates for each representative in the lower House of the . State Legislature, provided that each county shall be represented by at least one delegate. By order of the Committee. E. J. More, Chairman. J. W. Wood, Secretary. Allentown, Pa., July 17, 1870. To th Repuhlicant of Pennsylvania: In calling the attention of the Republi cans of Pennsylvania to the convention to meet at the city of Reading on the 31st dsy of August next, we desire to present the following considerations concerning its pur poses: The Republicans of Pennsylvania who live in counties in which they are in the minori ty number one hundred and twenty-five thousand voters, more than one third of the whole Republican vote. They own and con trol very large and varied and material in terests, requiring the care and protection af forded by wise and salutary laws. That these people are wholly excluded from participation in the management and control of their respective county governments does not in the least estrange their devotion to Republican principles or cause them to abate their efforts in behalf of the success of the Republican party. They have just cause of complaint, however, in the fact that, while their political brethren are and for many years have been in the ascendency in the State Legislature, they are entirely unrep resented, and by an unjust rule established by a Republican majority, they are continu ally subjected to unjust and oppressive laws, while they arc persistently denied such leg islation as their material interests require. That so large a body of the people should find themselves unrepresented in the law making power is evidence of a defective fun damental organization. A republican or democratic form of government must of ne cessity be representative, and to fill the re ttHf suatft-of a roproaentativa averaruetit it should be so framed that all the people, as nearly as practicably can be, should have a voice in the enactment of the laws which govern them. If the government is so shap ed that a majority of the people only are to be represented, then it cannot be a free and republican state, but a mere despotism of one portion of the people over the other. Such a government is despotic in principle as well as in practice, for it can be of very little consequence to the minorities whether the laws which govern them are made by a particular class of men, or by a single po tentate, the minorities, who are excluded from all voice or hearing in the law-making branch of the government, bearing about the same relation to the majorities as do sub jects to an absolute monarchy. According to the mode of representation, as established by the constitution and laws of Pennsylvania, more than one-third of her voting and tax-paying citizens are excluded from any voice or power in the law-making department of the State, and the same re mark will hold true as to the General Gov ernment. We most respectfully and earnestly present this subject to the candid and considerate at tention of the voters of Pennsylvania, con fidently relying on their intelligence and sense of justice for a reform in a matter so vital to the welfare and prosperity of the whole people, and the safety and perpetuity of the Government. It is gratifying to observe that this move ment is not without precedent in our own country ; for the people of Illinois have quite recently amended the organic law of that State so that minorities will hereafter be fairly represented, not only in the State Leg islature, but also in all corporations author ized by law. In other States the question has been favorably entortained, and even in some of the European governments it is dis cussed bv the people, and, in one instance, partially adopted, while learned political wri ters everywhere have commended it to pub lie attention. In view of this subject, and because the Republican minorities have suffered long and much for want of a proper and equal representation, the members of the Repub lican State Central Committee held a meet ing in the city of Philadelphia, on the 13th inst, when it was resolved that a State Con veotion of delegates from minority counties be held at the city of Reading, on Wednes day, the 31st day of August next, with the view of concerting measures to aeure repre sentation for minorities in all matters where in they are interested, and consider other matters interesting to minority counties. It is firmly believed that if the people of Pennsylvania were more generally and equal ly represented in our State Legislature, that the character of legislation would be Tastly improved, while the danger of corruption would be very materially lessened, if not al together avaided. The minority districts in Pennsylvania are most earnestly enjoined to send able and in fluential representatives to the convention which will meet at the city of Reading, while all other counties in the State are also re quested to send delegates to assist in the ob jects of the convention, in accordance with the resolution passed at the meeting of the Committse.

I did this because I had used all kind af ad vertised remedies, and had found I hem worthless, and some quit injurious ; in fact, I despaired ef over getting well, and determined to as rea dies hereafter anless I knew of th iagvaaltaats. It was this that prompted me to use yourreeaedy. Asyoa advertised that it was composed of kasha, enbebs and juniper berries, it occurred to Etaaad my physician as an excelleat combination, aad, with his ad vie, after an examioatioa ef the arti cle, end consulting again with th draggtot, I concluded to try it. I commenced it aa a beat eight months (go, at which tim I was aiasd to my room From th frst bottle I was taih ed and gratified at th benefioiai effect and after using it three weeks was able to walk rat. t fait much like writing you a full statement of sy a, at that time, not thought my improvaaiaajt asighf only be temporary, and therefor eoajcladed ta defer and se if it would effect a perfect ar knowing then it would be of greater valu ta job, and more satisfactory to me. lam now abl to report that a care is effected after using the remedy for fir month. I hare not ased any now for three raalhs, aaoV feel as welt la all respects as I ever did. Your Bncha being devoid ol any nplaaat taste and odor, a nice tenisand invigorates af th system.
