YEAREIEd ANswBRHD.-The Democratic
masses, who have been listening to the inco-
herent periods Of Blair for months past, are
"yearning for the TRUTH" and now Horatio
himself is about TO satisfy their longing. 1t
is officially announced that he will tsks the
stump in person, opening his campaign at
Buffalo tomorrow. When the Tammany
nomination was thrust upon Horatio, he de-
clared that he could not accept it with honor;
and yet he did accept. He also asserted that
he was strongly disinclined to accept, for the
reason that such a course would preclude him
from taking an active part in the CANVASS
with honor, Of oourre. Blair has no such
scruples, and 80 he totters over the country,
and prates about all manner Of things ad
ndusedm. And now Horatio has been thrust
into the same unenviable position before the
people. His case is desperate one, how
ever, and in this fact lies his excuse for this
second going back upon his high sense of
''honor."

PAPER COLLARS.
p AP < r COLL r 8.
w z A r z r 8

FOR months past, complaints have reached ws
that many persons have been poisoned by wear
Ing ENAMELLED PAPER COLLARS. and
we have been repeatedly appealed to by deaIeSu
and others to know whether there was anv
truth in these reports,
Recently. our attention being called to two
very aggravated cases Of poisoning by wearing
Enamelled Paper Collars, We determined Ia
employ an expert Chemist, and have several
styles OF goods now offered In this market
anslyzed.
The result OF the analysis made by Prof
Williams. late OF the Polytechnic College, viii,
be found below. and the Collar referred 70. as
sample No. l." was Ename,led and Ltaca
Finished. with glossy appearance.
Az the same time we invited Prof. Williams
to visit our Factory. and sent to his Laboratory
samples of all the articles used In our CIoth
Lined. and also our new Irving" ""west End y
Elite" and other styles OF Linen Finished
Collars, as well as the Collars themselves. and
his report on them will be found below.
As all the enamels are prepared and put on In
our own establishment. we had no doubt OF
their being harmless; but believed our custom
ers should have not only our assertion, but also
Prof. WDliams' report after careful analysis.

REPORT OF PROF. WILLIAMS.

men:-The Paper Collars which you sent me.
marked mo. l." contain Carbonate OF Lead or
White Lead as one of the constituents of their
glaze or finish. regard this substance as exert.
ing poisonous action when brought in contaos
with the skin. and when acted upon by the
liquids exuding from the surface OF the skin
The action of this substance Is too generally
known to require any further certificate from
me. 1 have, at your request, exhibited the
presence Of lead in these Collars by submitting
them to the action of Sulphydric Acid Gas
(Sulphuretted Hydrogen). which, as you will
perceive. has blackened them. A quantitstive
chemical analysis shows that each collar con-
tains fraction one tenth less than one grain OF
Carbonate of Lead. The amount seems small,
but the continued action of even this on the
surface of the skin must result injuriousiy.
Very respectfully yours,
CHARLES p. WILLIAMS
Analytical and Consulting Chemist.

HONOR TO PHnADBLPHIAE.--Last evening,
to densely crowded audience, the Hon.
Benjamin Harris Brewster, of Philadelphia
delivered an address Of great ability at the
Cooper Institute, New York. He visited the
metropolis at the request of the National
Executive Committee. After doing the Repub-
lican party invaluable service in the Courts of
our city and in the Supreme Court of the
State, he now goes to lend his voice to help
the cause in New York. Mr.. Brewster's repu-
tation as an orator was more than sustained
last night, and we only regret that we have
not space for his address in fall.

These letters speak for themselves. No ons|
has ever questioned the purity OF our goodsj
and especially our Clio h Lined Collars whiohl
are the best as we'll as the most reliable made

WEST END" and "ELITE" Linen Finished
Collars, the first two OF which are sold by retail
ers at 20 cents for q box of 10 Collars and next
to our Cloth Lined Goods are the finest made
To those who prefer the best goeds although
costing q trife more, we recommend our Cloth
Lined Collars, which we have made since 1855
and which have always commanded from the
wholesale trade from $40 to Sis more per lOOo
than any other make. Our NEW ROUND'

out), as also styles Nj and X, we especially
recommend.
In thus publicly drawing attention to the
subject OF Poison in Enamelled Paper Collars
our object is twofold, viz.:-To caution those
who have been induced to wear Paper Collars
on our representations. and to do Justice To
ourselves, who commenced the business and
introduced Paper Collars into general use I'M
1858, and are probably more largely Interested
In their universal use than any other parties In
the trade.
That no injury may be done to, or unfair.
advantage taken over other manufacturers
who, like ourselves. have been striving to fur.
nish customers with goods well and hopestIyt
made. we desire to say that the inyestisationI
made reveal the fact that probably not over 8S
to 40 per cent. OF the goods now offered for sale
contain Carbonate OF Lead or other Injurious
substances, and we doubt not that many other
makes OF goods are as harmless as ours and
that manufacturers of such Collars will cheer
fully place themselves right on the record, a.
regards their goods.
If both wearers, as well as dealers, will insist
upon proof OF freedom from poisonous ingre-
dients, before buying Enamelled Collars, tho
market will soon be rid OF such goods. and the
public, as well as the honest manufacturers
alike benefited.
