Two Styles of Horse Powers,

NINE-TENTHS of all the Threshing
IN Machines in use in this country belong to tho
"ENDLEss APRON" class, |. O., they have tho
arrangement Of the "Endless Apron" or "Canvas
Grain Carrier" heaters and "pckers' IN COM
mon. Machines Of this style, having the same
general form and somewhat similar appearance,
are made in nearly hundred different factories,
large and small. Yet machines from these differ
emit factories differ as much in real qualities as do
different makes Of Wagons cloth, leather, cutlery,
catches engines. Hence the Importance OF care
on the part of the farmer and the thresherman in
making their selections. Some are practically
cheaper at a thousand than others at three hun
bred dollars, yet thore is not more than hundred
dollars difference between the prices of the best
and the poorest.
Q. Aultman & Co.'S Sweepstakes is
and its superior strength, durability, simplicity,
ease of draft, style of finish and capacity for
threshing and cleaning grain are acknowledged.
It has been for eighteen years favor
lite, and for several years without peer.
It has led the van of Improvement
and reyolutonized the styfe and quality Of work
bestowed upon threshing machines.
It is more widely known and esteem
ed than any other. The names OF sc. Aultman
& Co." and SWEEPSTAKES" are household words
from Maine TO California.
Our circulars contain the names of
over five thousand five hundred men in the North
west alone who have purchased 1t and used tan
evidence Of its standard character which should
not be overlooked.
The great reputation achieved by this
favorite machine has led several inscriptions
manufacturers, and numerous agents, to attach
ths name "swEKPsrLKEs," in one way and
another to their machines and advertisements to
mislead and deceive.
To avoid deception, look for the card
&C, AULTMAN Co., Manufacturers, CANTON,
omo," in gilt letters, conspicuously, on both sides
of the machine.
If you want to buy spurious Sweep
stakes, because you can get 1t for "poor pay
or on "long time,' do it with your eyes open
That is the way they get rid Of inferior machines
The genuine "Sweepstakes" con-
tains many valuable peclttidrtties of construction
rs well as Patented Improvements not to be found
in any other machine whatever.
It is the acknowledged Leader of the
great Endless Apron" or Canvas Grain Car
Ter" branch of the threshing machine family,
which has for more than thirty years threshed and
cleaned the grain Of the country.
= More SWEEPSTAKES are being
Quilt for this year than ever before. Improve
ments have been added, and its acknowledged
position at the head of its class will be fully
maintained in the future as in the past.

burglary Mnde Respectable.

| If the theory of the Spiritualsts is correct,
what must be the state of mind experienced
by the spirits of Jack Sheppard and Jonathan
Wild when lowering about us in the present
period? The profession so clumsily wrought
| up by them has now reached its zenith, and
moreover high premiums are awarded by the
community at large to all who are willing to
try their hand. We soon expect to see adver-
tisements in business directories such as
''Jimmy Crowbar, professional housebreaker.
Burglaries done by the job at ten per cent 4"
In fact, in the same category as any other
honest calling; for it becomes an honest call
| ing, in common parlance, when such induce
| ments are held out for those who follow it.
| Recent events tend strongly to prove that there
exists body of cracksmen who, although they
| do not show up as actual housebreakers de
tacto, are only the more guilty by reason of
their positions and the connivance they lend
| to such nefarious proceedings. Really, we
repeat burglary is now becoming respectable
following, and so long as such immunity is
granted it cannot be wondered at if that branch
of industry prospers. Not long ago officials
were rudely spoken of if they realized fortune
in brief period-say year-but now every
facility is offered for few enterprising men to
do so in one night. Seriously speaking, how
ever, if this state of things be allowed to con-
tinue it will soon become an interesting ques-
tion for banks and all deposit holders of money
and valuables, and to private citizens who
have anything, how much it will cost to insure
them against loss, and also how such can be
effected.

THE KEToHUM CAsE.-Young Ketchum did
exactly right in declining to accept release
from the State Prison on quibble about his
indictment, especially as he has but short
remnant to serve of his term of Imprisonment.
His microscopical lawyer Mr.. Bartlett, we
think, in this case permitted the discovery of
the loophole of legal techncality to carry
him too far; but the result-that is, the refusal
of the prisoner to avail himself of the flaw
suggested, will not be to the prisoners disad-
vantage. Apparently cured of his follies, and
disposed to the full reparation of the past by
his course in the future, it is to be hoped that
the young man in returning to the world will
be given chance to redeem himself In every
case where there is repentance and reform
there should be some encouragement to keep
it up.

cursionists are off to Europe, and many are
preparing to go but all these, after all, are
but as drop in the bucket. The signs Of the
times indicate good season at our summer
resorts, inland and seaboard, all along the
Jersey coast, all around Long Island, and from
the Connecticut coast up to the lakes of Maine,
and at the White Mountains and Lake George
and Saratoga, Niagara, yea, ''from the centre
all round to the sea-" on both sides Of the
Continent, including the new wonders opened
to sight seers by the Pacific Railroad. After
''the glorious Fourth" however, the grand
rush to the woods, the fields, the lakes, springs
and inland rivers, and to the mountains and
the sea will set in, and then, till about the
first of September, the gay world will be out
of town, including our fashionable parsons,
and then the tide will turn again. Meantime
those who stay in town will have our noble
and health-giving Park for purposes of recrea
ton, the most beautiful summer resort of all in
this broad land. Moral-Winter or summer,
New York city has its attractions which cannot

THE FRENCH CABLE.-The announcement
that the Great Eastern had succeeded in repair
ing the fault in the French ocean cable and
was again proceeding with the work of paying
out was received with general pleasure yester-
day in every circle in the city. She is now
probably more than half way across the ocean,
and we may expect in few more days to hear
of the landing of the shore end at the island
OF st. Pierre, off the coast of Newfoundland
Monopoly might as well try to vindicate its
character for devotion to the public good as to
attempt to prevent the increase of telegra phic
communication between the Continents.

The Health of the City.

| In another column of the HERALD we call
attention to the disgraceful and unhealthy
state of many of the up town and down town
| districts of the city. The report alluded TO is
based on actual observation of the localities
| mentioned, which are in such condition as
to give due cause for alarm. During the
spring months we called attention of the
Board of Health to the necessity of adopting
the necessary precautions to guard against an
epidemic, and by an early commencement to
adopt measures to meet any contingency that
| might arise. Our advice was not taken, and
now we find ourselves, in the full flush of
summer, with our streets and public thorough
fares, in many places, in such condition that
there is very great cause to fear that an un-
healthy season may be anticipated unless
some energetic measures be adopted by the
Health Board. There is no reason why the
city, or portions of it, rather, should be in
their present condition. We very much fear
that wranglings in the Board are the real
cause of this neglect. If the inspectors of
the HERALD can find these pest holes in the
streets, surely the sanitary inspectors, whose
sole duty it is to attend to this business,
ought to be equally observant. That they
are not vigilant is apparent, and having
failed to be 80 they render themselves guilty
or no small offence in the eyes of the public.
A visit to any of our so-called public markets
will convince even the most unthinking person
that they are in a most neglected state.
Sicky and offensive odors of decaying vege-
table matter offend the sense of smelling, and
may in time prove detrimental to public health.
This is intolerable, and that it is allowed to
continue is matter of serious concern to our
citizens All these facts, taken in connection
with the arrival of vessels from tropical climes,
bringing as as they do in many instances the
seeds of pestilehce and disease, are contem-
plation not pleasant to consider. We trust the
members of the Board of Health will act with
sohe dsgfse Of pfoAptftude in 4 this ism matter, set
aside their little political differences until the
cool weather once again visits u.s. and place
the city in comparative security, beyond the
danger of the malarial agencies now being
sOwn in our midst.

ADMIRAL PoRTER.-Much has been said OF
the red tape management Of the Navy Depart
ment by Admiral Porter; but nothing has yet
appeared to the prejudice of his we'll earned
reputation as an able and accomplished naval
officer. If blunders have lately been COM
mtted in the department. such as the changing
OF the genuine American names Of our ships
of-war for the names Of the English navy,
the responsibility belongs not to Admiral
Porter. He is not and has not been the head
of the department; but he ought to be, and il
is unfair to him and to the administration that
he cannot be without sacrificing his place in
the navy. We hope to see this Injustice
repaired by Congress, in order that the depart
ment may be administered by man who
knows from experience all the leaks and all
the wants of the service.

The OPENING OF THE SuRz CANAL-A
STEAMSHIP FROM New YoRK.-We understand
that project is well under way, in the hands
of an American who has spent some years as
merchant in Constantnope, for the charter
ing of large ocean steamer CATER the fashion
of the Quaker City Mediterranean excursion
of some two years ago. for the purpose of
pleasure trip direct from this port to Egypt. in
order to give the excursionists the opportunity
for assisting, in September, in the grand
ceremonies Of the opening of the Suez Canal.
We learn that the round trip will cost perhaps
thousand dollars, that in the cruise the shin
will touch at the principal Mediterranean
ports, and that in Egypt sufficient time will be
given the party to examine the Pyramids, and
that a diversion on returning will be made to
the coast of Palestine, to give the party
chance for run over to the Holy City of
Jerusalem. The idea is good one and IL
ought to be great success.

Our ST. DOMINGO CORRESPONDENTS. In
view Of the rising Importance of the relations
of the Dominican republic, and its position as
the first applicant among the Spanish Ameri-
can communities for the establishment of
nearer political relations with us than those
of mere treaty stipulation, we have sent
special correspondent to the island, to give an
impartial report of the matters and things he
may find of public interest. We publish to-day
in another column his first letters, containing
report of the condition of st. Domingo city,
founded by Columbus, and the Oldest European
settlement in the New World, with an inter-
view with President Baez and his Cabinet, all
of which will be found very interesting It
will be seen that the most friendly disposition
is entertained towards the United States, and
desire to participate in the future march of
the American Union.

GEORGE PEABODY-ANoTHER MILLION
1.-The universal Yankee nation" has reason to
be particularly proud of George Peabody.
His munifcent presents in the cause of philan-
thropy in England, where the bulk of his for
tune has been made, and in the United States.
the country to which he belongs, reduce the
personal contributions of princes and poten
tates to institutions for teaching the ignorant
and helping the poor to mere tri1es. He has
just given another million to his original fund
of a million to his trustees for educational
purposes in the South, without distinction of
race or color. Such princely giver as this
in good works is an honor to his country and
his race; and in dispensing his charities while
yet in the land of the living he sets an example
that ought to be generally followed, especially
by men having millions to spare. In this re-
spect Mr.. Peabody is wise man as we'll as
liberal one. May his days yet be long in
the land

The Summer Season and Our summer Re-
sorts.

The summer season is upon us in all it's
power and glory. Merchants complain that
business is dull the pretty milliners sit in
their stores awaiting customers who do not
come, the theatres are languishing in the
withering heat; but our hotels, railroads and
steamboats, tell different story. 1t is, like
wise, the harvest time of hackmen, express
men, trunk makers and baggage smashers.
The city, all our cities, North and South, are
discharging their summer birds and butterflies
of fashion, for pleasure and recuperation upon
the country, to the great lakes, the springs,
to the misty mountains and to the surf line of
the sounding sea. Many of our summer ex-

IMMGRAToN.-We invite special attention
to the statistics Of recent immigration TO the
United States which wepublish to-day. There
are no signs of a refux or abatement in the
full tide which has lately been pouring in upon
our shores. In 1868 the number of immigrants
who arrived at Castle Garden, from January to
June, inclusive, was ,097; in 1869 it has
been l42,227. Here is an increase of 33, 1870, or
thirty and two-6fths per cent over the arrivals
during the same period in 1868. In the month
of June alone fifty-six steamers and twenty
one sailing vessels arrived, with Al, 339 immi-
grants on board. Political discomfort in Ire
land, and famine, occasioned by the partial
failure OF the crops for the past two seasons,
in Sweden and Norway, are the.main causes of
this remarkable exodus from the Old wqyld to
the New.

London and New York Fashions.

In the unexpected absence of the usual
letter from our Paris fashions correspondent
the readers of the HERALD will be glad to
read the letter which we publish to-day from
London correspondent, who endeavors to
show that in England, despite ''the frumpish-
ness of the first lady of the land" it would be
strange if some of the fair daughters of Britain
did not display discrimination and taste in the
selection of toilets. But our London corre-
spondent is, after all, constrained to admit
that at the recent gathering of the nobility
and gentry of England at the Royal Botanic
Grounds, in response to invitations issued by
the Prince of Teck, 'tbs dresses were. as a
general thing, exceedingly dowdy, although
rich in material" Certain exceptions, in
deed-as, for instance, rich garnet silk, with
q long train, biased founce trimming, plated
pun pun anu anu 555raiaS. and garnet Grape bonnet,
trimmed with lace; lavender SILK suis, with
panier and point applique trimmings, and bon
net and lace to match; rich green corded
silk; two white muslin underskirts, with
mauve silk over dresses, "paniered and puffed
to death, and the black satin train, pointed
at bottom, with black velvet overskirt, BASQUE
waist of velvet and satin to match, and black
lace bonnet, with scarlet ostrich tip, worn by a
royal visitor-are duly mentioned. The simple
but handsome walking suit of purple merino,
the skirt just reaching to the ground, trimmed
with silk hounces Of the same color and a.
purple Grape bonnet with black silk flowers,
the toilet of ''the amiable but fading" wife of
the heir apparent to the British crown, is also
deservedly praised.
In this connection it may not be amiss to
add, on the authority of a writer in an English
magazine, who was lately present at the cele-
bration of high mass in the chapel of the
Tuileries, that the Empress of the French,
responsible as she may be for the prevalent
extravaganza in dress throughout the fashion
able world, appeared in toilet which entirely
condemned the fantastic costumes which have
recently been affected by English and Ameri-
can ladies. "She wore no huge chignons or
streaming hair, no looped-up tunic or short
petticoats, but plain black silk falling in
long folds to the ground, with a quiet little
black lace bonnet over her very simply ar
ranged hair" Here is an example of sim
plicity and elegance which we can conscien-
tiousy recommend to all the ladies who have
acquired the habit of following the example of
the Empress Eugene as leader of fashion.
The only particularly noticeable feature of
New York summer fashions is the prevailing
fancy for ecru, or unbleached goods. Harper's
Basar grows eloquent over linen, lawn,
pongee and foulard which are shown in the
natural pale buff of the material as it is before
being subjected to the bleaching process. 1t
says that Chambery gauze and the Grape called
Chinese, but manufactured in Paris, are made
by art to represent this delicate tint-the
mere shadow Of color-and adds that this
hue is becoming alike to the dark and the fair.
This is, perhaps, the secret of its popularity.
