Prog. ess in Manufactures.

| Ia an article which we pa lished in this
| journal in December last. under the above CAP
| ton, we rcfe, red at some length to the ereat
| soap manufactof OF Mr. j. B. DJbbins at Sixth
street and German town avenue, predicting that
the soap which Mr.. DobbIns manufactures
iamiliarly known as Dob bins Electric Soap-was
destined 10 attain degree OF popularity never
equaltd by any other manufactured article in
this country; and stating that already the
cupidty of certain envious (woulo-be) rivals
bad been excited by Mr.. Dobbins' unparalleled
SUCCESS.
1t Is TO the latter of these points that We to-
day wish briefly TO direct attention. As great
econom'zer of time aud labor, We then gave to
Mr.. Dobbins' Soap the end irsement which its
merits deserve, believing that by so doing we
should promote the CON ort and hap iiness
OF millions throughout our cities aud the
country at large. Bat we are un willing that
our endorsement Of a good article shall be
falsely usel ia order to give respecta oility
and character to poor limitations Of it. There
are CERTAIN soap manufacturers of the more
unscIupu'ous class, wno after vainly endeavor-
ing 10 foist their soap upon the market
under certain names have simply changed their
names, without in the least improving their
washing properties, and are endeavoring
to delude the public into the adoption of these
miserable shams They are pretty looking
Wb te SOAPS, but for washing purposes are abso-
lutely good for nothing. Let the people
therefore beware. One concern has even gone
so far in this deception as to advertise PhIGdeE-
phid htectric Soap, very nearly initiating his
labels, with the evident design OF misleading
buyers into the suppostion that it is the Dobbins
article. OF course no honorable well-esta-
fact we know of respectable firms in the busi-
ness who denouuce the mposture more severely
than does Mr.. Dobbins hmself.
We can hardly imagine a more disreputable
mercantile procedure than these "played outr
soap-makers after their soaps have become as
''plaJed our as themselves, endeayorng to re.
suscitate their dead failures by resurrecting
them in ne1o bOres, or rather in the old ones
with reec labels, and pamlng them off upon un
suspecting dealers and consumers as "ELEOrRIc
SoAP!" 1t is q wonder that their audaclty has
not impelled them even to the use OF MIR. Dob
BINS name to give currency to their worthless
trash. Again, we say, beware OF these imita-
hons! Those woo have not yet tried the merits
of the genuine E.eetrc Soap have i'll a real
household blessing in store for them, and we re.
commend all our readers to avail themselves of
it; but let them be careful TO buy no other than
that m manufactured by Mr.. Dobbins at his i'm.

Life Insurance by the cooperative
Plan.

The great benefits resulting from life insurance
are too generally known TO need any comment
from us. Some days since We called attention
TO the method OF Cooperative Mutual Lie In
surance, as adopted by the Philadelphia Com.
pany, located at the northeast corner of Fifth
aud Walnut streets, in this city. The amount
required to obtain an insurance of $1,000 is only
SIS and upwards, according to age; a sum within
the resch OF every person of limited income.
And that, in addiICn to this, only SIPS, payable
on thirty days notice, is required on the death
of sny OF e of the one thousand of the class to
which the insured belongs. Those who depend
upon their earnings from day to day for the
subsistence of their families, should take this
matter into serious consideration, and there are
few who cannot make the small payments
required by this Company.

years o. age, sometimes calls him elf Persian,
sonnet mos Russian, sometimes a Christian,
and at others Muss ulman.
During the past tOur mOnths he has occupied

fore the Governor, where ster an exam natlon
by two physicians, no evidence whatever OF in
sanity was discovered. Al eT having aus TeIed

ANOTHER PRESS DESTROYED.

POLITICAL DISCUSSIONS NOT TOLERATED
Freedom Of the Pres Assailed.

Some time since a mob partially de-
stroyed the printing establishment of the
Homer Itidd, owned by Hon. W. Jasper
Blackburn, NJ. G. This was done during the
absence of Mr.. Blackburn to this city,
and Mr.. Pratt, of Claiborne, a DEM
ocratic Representative in the pres
ent Legislature, very promptly and
magnanimously offered to place at Mr..
Blackburn's disposition the printing ma.
teriai of the Minden Democratic paper.
The publication of the Had was
resumed again, and we now learn from Mr..
Pratt that the establishment has second
time been sacked in the night, and this
time completely demolished.
The people of Claiborne parish seem to
fear the truth, and very unwisely demon
strate their hostility TO the discussion of
Republican principles by destroying type
and breaking up presses.
They are as bad as the benighted citizens
of Franklin, Opelousas and Alexandria, who
have done the same thing once. The ex-
pense of this luxury will be paid by the tax.
