From the New York Commercial Advertiser.l
Where do the Tooth Picks Come From.


From the New York Commercial Advsrtiser.l
Where do the Tooth Picks Come From.
The next question to be considered is,
where do the tooth picks come from 3
1t is supposed that the Yankee, when
he first felt the necessity of cutting a
stick of timber in order to provide him
self with toothpick, gained the knowl-
edge of whiting, and has since kept
and improved on the leseon. A New
Englander will produce toothpick
with his knife from almost everything
except bar of iron, but with all his in
ventlve genius it has remained for the
natives Of Chill to supply this toothpick
ing nation with large proportion Of the
instruments for gratifying their habit or
necessity. The aged and decrepid and
the youth of both sexes Of Chill are en-
gagged in preparing those little orange
sticks that one finds at every restaurant
and hotel in the city and country. These
they white out with astonishing rapid
,y, at the rate Of five or SIX hundred in
an honr. The sticks are then packed
in bundles of thousand each, and sent
to this city !; being imported expressly
by a lady in Division street, whose son
superintends their manufacture in Chill.
Here the toothpicks are sold for twenty
cents thousand and scattered all over
the country, placed in all the restanr-
ants and hotels and in the hands of every
tooth picking Yankee in the Kingdom.
To such an extent is this traffic car
red that the proprietors of the Astor
House alone purchase eight OF ten bar
rels OF every importation and retail them
among the country hotels. A restaur-
ant with good run of custom will con-
sumo about twenty thousand toothpicks
in three weeks.
The adage, "it's an i'll wind that blows
nobody good" is in this case VERIFIED
We find that the American public by the
persistent practice of picking their teeth,
give employment to hundreds Of poor
persons and children in Chilli, and at
the same time assist the army Of dem
lists who thrive upon our suicidal cour-
SEES of life. We drink scalding hot pota
tons in winter, and freezing mixtures in
summer, and not content with that, are
constantly punching our teeth because
we have acquired the habit, and cannot
or will not refrain from it.

AS we epected, our neighbors Of the
Gazette are entirely confounded when
.wo put the question direct to them az
TO what lis fayorite candidate, Abe LIN
coin, has done in or out OF Congress-at
home, abroad or anywhere, that he Is
entitled 10 any consideration at the
hards OF the American people-that ut
IS to be set up as the candidate for
Chief Executive. by virtue OF the po-
si,ions which he has sometimes occu-
pied lie had opportunities OF dong much
good, or initiating some important step
for the benefit Of bis fellow men-and
thus showing his good will to be OF
some use, but as yet nothing of the kind
has ever been discovered even by the
sharpest eyed Republican capital hunt.
ers, and when we ask the Gazette to
point out somethng-dnything at all
which he has done-an good in any
shape that will prove that he should be
President, or have anything to do
with the Government of the Nation 9th
or than casting his individual vote on
election day like any other member OF
the common herd.
The prediction of the Gazette as to
what Mr.. Lincoln pW do in the future
what he is going to do, provided he
gets chance, is extremely childish,
about as devoid Of sober judgment as
the mandlin little joker's fumigatlons
usually are. The last chance of Abra-
ham Lincoln for the Presidency Of the
United States has passed away forever.
He stands far better chance of beng
struck by ligttning on some cloudless
day than Of being the next President OF
these United States.
If the American people are, as the
Gazette SAYS, satisfied with Lincoln's
record" will not that sheet, on the part
Of the American people, or small por-
ton of them, publish portion Of that
record, that it may be known III what
it consists.

The DOUG as organ here accuses Va of swlnd-
ling, lying and other pleasant pastiines, because
we copied telegraph report (as officially sent
to the Associated Pres by Il friend Of Douglas,
and copied by nearly every Democratic paper
in the west y giving an abstract OF Douglas re-
marks at Harrisburg on the Taritf.-Gasetts.
Certainly we do, and we have fasten-
ed it upon you in such a manner that
all your wriggiing and classifying the rec
ord can never clear your conduct IN the
eyes of those who have watched your
course.
In the above paragraph there is a
matter which we require the writer to
either prove or retract or sneak ont
of in his usual way. He says "as otiic-
tally sent by a friend of Douglas" Now
upon what authority does the Gazette
state that it was a rtend of Judge Doug
las who sent that Geographic report 3
We ask that some admissible proof of
tits assertion be brought forward. In
the first place Mr.. Douglas used no
such language as the report would infer,
as we have already sufficiently proven !;
and further, no friend Of that gentle
man would ever put in circulation such
Statements statement entirel con-
Trajectory in every feature-in word
and in spirit to what Mr.. Douglas &C.
tualy did say. Now in all candor, We
call for the proof Shall it be forthcom-
ing?
AS regards the Carl Shurz declaration
we have yet failed to see any proof what
ever that he did not use the language
quoted. He did make use OF that trea-
sonable anguage-slandered in public
our toretathers, condemned our glorious
constitution, and reviled the spirit of the
American Revolution, in order to tickle
the ears of the one idea men-the
higher law" men, the fanatics who
worship at false shrines, and who bow
down to imaginary gods, and strew their
pathway with flowers. Such nas the
language of the great revolutionist, Carl
who has the impotence to
stand up aud abuse the dead patriots and
living statesmen of America, in the face
and eyes of living, intelligent and loyal
American citizens. II he did not saw
SO, Mr.. Gazette, just disprove it. That
Is all We ask. If he did not say what
he meant, and mean what he said. inst
make 1t SO appear.

these things should be met square in

The UniOu Ticket.

The prompt indorsment Of the Union
Electoral ticket, at Mozart Hall on Mon
day evening, is indicative OF the support
it will receive at the hands Of the Dem
ocrstic mas es. We have yet to hear,
from any Democrat, the first in,inatlon
of a determination to oppose i. SO far
AS the Press is concerned it is sustained
by all the journals adverse to Lincoln,
and this simply reflects the sentiment
Of the people. Politicians and wire
pulleis can neither arrest the current
that PUSHES with the movement, nor d.
vert it from its course. 1t rises h'gh
above tae sordld schemes OF placemen
and pIacehuuteus, and addresses itse II
straight to the common sense aud pat
riotlsm OF the people.
What action may be taken IN reference
to it by the Committee OF which Mr..
John A. Green, Jr., is CHAIRMAN, has net
TRANSFERRED, nor is it material, since the
controlling minds and controlling men OF
that organization, in this city, including
all, or nearly all, the Federal officehold-
ers, yield to it jealous support. The
Democratic State Committee have not
yet made any announcement, but We
have cvery reason to suppose that they
will assent to the arrangement; not SO
to believe would be to question their sa-
gaci;y as politicians and their desire to
defeat the common enemy.
Mozart Hall has already given IN its
formal Endorsement of the ticket. The
Breckenridge and Tammany men will
not have the temeritv to oppose it. We
may therefore be said to have now, in
fact, united Democracy in its favor,
and that the commercial metropolis will
roll up for it majority Of sixty thous-
and.-N. r. NeWs.
