A Question
.oR THE PUBLIC TO DECIDE.

GAN it be expected that Merchants and Drug
u eists. who lend themselves to palm off upon
the public their base limitations and counterfeit
medicines, in preference to the genuine, merely
because they can make more per cent on them,
would deal honestly in selling other articles We
think not. Persons that deal out counterfeit medi-
cIneS, and thus encourage counterfelters, even at
the expense Of the health and life of their custom
ers and nelghbors, are they honest or honorable
men no. And they should be avoided.

For THE LADIEs.-For the especial enter
tainment of our lady friends, we publish the
following description OF new sewing machine
from the I" Boston Traveller" If the 1" critters
be all the paper says, then indeed will it be
quite favorite with the fair sex -
To sew the seams of pantaloons, for in
stance, the cloth is fastened to a bar, so con-
structed as TO 0bviate the necessity of basting
This bar, with the cloth attached, is moved
horizontally in front of the needle, by means
OF feed motion, which measures with perfect
accuracy, the length OF the stitches. This
motion can easily and instantly be so adjusted
as to make longer or shorter stitches, at the
will OF the operator. The needle-which has
ITS eye IN the point or very near it's driven
through the cloth by means of peculiarly
formed cam. The thread-which runs from
a spool through the end of spring, so that it
can be frightened at pleasure, passes the point
of the needle through the cloth, till it is caught
by hook on the other side. This hook holds
the thread in peculiar manner, forming it in
to loop, until the needle has passed out and
been again driven through-the bar upon
which the cloth is, having, in the meantime,
been moved along the length of one stitch
The hook then drops its first hold and again
seizes the thread-which has now passed
through the loop-and repeats the process
mus Interviewing the thread so as TO form a
unborn and substantial stitch, such as the Ia
dies call chain stitch.

Prophecies of Jefferson.

10 inc E0tOT o. He On|On:
SIR remember some few days since to
have told you that intended 10 publish the
prophecies of the Apostle of Liberty, and to
cali the attention of the public to their fulfil
ment in the many incidents which had occur
red in our own day Recent events in Europe
and the publication of suppressed converse
ton between Napoleon and Las Casas, have
revived in my recollection the wonderful sa-
gacity and wisdom of that statesman and sage,
as displayed in his knowledge of human ma
ture and Of human rights. The last letter he
wrote-a paper forming suitable supplement
to his immortal Declaration of Independence
was addressed to the then mayor of this city,
R. C. Weightman, Esq. This letter foretold
the events which are now transporting in Eu-
rope, as we'll as others, of which they are on
ly the precursors. Please publish that letter,
which is to be found in 4th volume of his
" Correspondence" 1t is the last public let
ter which that illustrious man ever wrote.

To Mr. U'eightn1an.

MONTICELLO, June ~, 1870.
RESPECTED SIR The kind invitation re-
ceived from you, on the part of the citizens of
the city of Washington, to be present with
them at their celebration on the fftieth ami
versary of American independence, as one of
the surviving signers of an instrument preg-
nant with our own, ard the fate of the world,
is most fattering to myself, and heightened
by the honorable accompaniment proposed for
the comfort of such a Journey. it adds SEN
sibly to the sufferlngs of sickness, to be de-
prived by it of personal participation in the
rejoicings of that day. But acquiescence is a
duty, under circumstances not placed among
those we are permitted to control. should,
indeed, with peculiar delight, have met and
exchanged there congratulations personally
with the small band, the remnant of that host
of worthless, who Joined with us on that day,
in the bold and doubtful election we were to
make for our country, between submission
and the sword and 10 have enjoyed with them
the consolatory fact, that our fellow citizens,
after half century of experience and prosper
ity, continue to approve the choice we made.
May it be to the world, what | believe it
will be, Ito some parts sooner, to others later,
but finally to al,) the signal of arousing men
to burst the chains under which monkish ig.
norance and superstition had persuaded them
to bind themselves, and to assume the bless
ings and security of self-government. That
form which we have substituted, restores the
free right to the unbounded exercise of reason
and freedom of opinion. All eyes are open
ed, or opening. to the rights of man. The ge-
neral spread of the light of science has already
laid open TO every view the palpable truth,
that the mass Of mankind has not been born
| with saddles on their backs nor favored few
booted and spured, ready to ride them legitl-
mately, by the grace of God. These are
grounds of hope for others. For ourselves,
| let the annual return of this day forever re-
fresh our recollections of these ri hts, and an
| undiminished devotion to them.
| will ask permission here 10 express the
pleasure with which should have met my
ancient neighbors of the city of Washington
and its vicinities, with whom passed so ma
ny years of a pleasing social intercourse; an
| intercourse which SO much relieved the anXi-
cites of the public cares. and left impressions
so deeply engraved in my affections, as never
to be forgotten. With my regret THAI i'll health
lorhds me the qualification of an acceptance
be pleased to receive for yourself, and those
for whom you write, the assurance of my
highest respect and friendly attachments.

on the 4th of July-its ilustrious author and
John Adams, both members of the committee
which reported the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, breathed their last-Unlon.
