The funeral of Mrs. FRED A. CASH will take

grace the market, and will compare favorably
with the best western-fed beef.
We aekowledge the receipt of an invitation
to he present at a dinner to be given by the
Officers Association of the oth Regiment,
N. G. I'., at the Ward House to-morrow
evening.
KENT'S auction sale began yesterday after
noon. It's as good as a show —a lecture we
should say—to hear Mr. TAYLOR, the accom
plished auctioneer sell goods. Every article
is struck down at some price, and many arti
cles are being sacrificed. If you want bar
gains in good dry goods, now is your time.
The editor of the Mercury, flushed by the
brilliant and easy victory won in his race the
other day, readily accepted a challenge from
his contestant, CHARLIE SMITH, to another
test of speed yesterday afternoon. The race
came off near the Barclay depot, and was
witnessed by a large number of interested
spectators. The distance was 100 yards, and
alas, our over ambitious tthletie cotemporary
was distanced two of them.
SHOULD PATRONIZE THE BRINRER.—A
case of the schoolmaster abroad reaches us
from a township in the southwest end of the
county. A constable, whose name it is not
necessary to mention, had a sale, and adver
tised the articles "seized and taken in several
executions," as follows: 1 two horse drug
wagon, 1 enrk as good as new, I bay raik, 1
leight sleight, 2 eags vinidcr, 1 eultewater, 1
corn further cutter, 2 set yenger hemes*, 'l
sadlt, 2 dubble trees, 1 shuffie,a lot berles and
tups, 1 eupbort, 25 bushls seed potuters, 1
dieneriim table, 1 purrow. and mutiny more
articles to uuimnerate to mention on day of
Bale;" and much more just like this specimen
—Dottaville Chronicle.
EXPERIENCE.— The best education one can
obtain is the education which experience
gives. In passing through life learn every
thing you can. Do not bo frightened away
from any one pursuit. 1 f you cannot have
anything more of an education than a smatter
ing, it is better than nothing. Even a slight
knowledge of the arts, sciences, languages,
opens up a whole world of thought. A little
systematic endcavout —one hour, or even a
half an hour a day, devoted to the acquisition
of knowledge—and a man may become
learned before he dies. Learn thoroughly
what you do learn, be it evt;r so little, and
you may speak of it with confidence. A few
clearly defined facts and ideas are worth a
whole library of uncertain knowledge.

Only a Day at a Time.
[A lad.y, after enduringa painful operation,
inquired of her physician how long she must,
be upon her bed of sickness. "Only a day at
a time!" was the reply. — Incident related by
the llec. Dr. Uehrends.]
Only a day at a time,
To toil and hope and wait;
Step by step our world-worn feet
Are Hearing the Beautiful Gate!
Patiently, bravely bear
The burdens and ills of to-day:
To-morrow's dawn perchance may bring
Sonic sunshine to brighten the way.
Only a day at a time!
When the future looms dark before,
And trials thicken and close around,
And alllictions press us sore.
W hen slander's cruel sting
And the cross is lie; vy to hear,
And the way is wild and rugged and dark
And we well nigh sink in despair.
Only a day at a time!
O, blessed message of cheer,
That seems the heavy burden to iift.
And smoothes our rough way here I
A word of cheer and hope, *
Will life's dark parth illume;
Bring courage to the fainting soul,
And sunshine through the gloom.
Only a day at a time,
To sutler and work and wait!
Stop by step our way-worn feet,
Are nearing the Beautiful Gate.

THE LAW OF PUBLIC SALES.— In a sale by
auction there arc three parties, viz: The owner
of the property to be sold, the auctioneer, and
a portion of tlie public. The articles must be
sold without reserve, and unless the vender
reserve one hid he cannot, bid himself or have
the auctioneer or anyone else, bid for him.
There arc eases on record where a bid was
not reserved, and the vender had a bidder
who bought it in, and nfterwaVls suit was
brought against the vender by the highest
bidder for the article, and it was decided
that lie, th£ plaintiff, was the highest outside
bidder, and entitled to the article against the
Vender. So, also, if any article is struck oil"
to a person, and it is afterwards ascertained
that the vender or auctioneer practiced fraud
by bidding himself, or had puffers, it was
held, both by the courts of England, and so
| repeatedly by the Supreme Court of Pennsyl
vania, that the purchaser could not be held,
but the purchaser, as soon as he discovers the
fraud practiced on him, must return or ten
der the article to the vender.
