Lock-Stitch Sewing Machines

Are world renowned for durability and SIM
plicity Of machinery, the perfection Of the ten
sious, and tho unparalleled wide range Of work
they ure capable Of performing without change
or read justrnent.
At the great "Expnsiton Universclle'' IN Ia
ris, in 1867, they were awarded the highest prize
a massive Gold Medal-over s. competitors,
and the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor was
conferred on Elias Howe us the original inventor
of the Sewing Machine.
The growing appreciation Of their character
istc excellence by the intelligent people of this
country was clearly shown by the unprecedent-
ed sales Of the Howe Sewing Machine during the
past year, being far in excess Of those Of any
other one patent.
More than 1000 Of these excellent machines
are in daily use in tho cities Of Washington and
Georgetown, and of this very large number
single case of dissatisfaction cannot be found.
They make the Howe" or Lock -Stitch,"
which has the same beautiful appearance on
either side Of the fabric sewed, and they are the
only machines that make this beautiful stitch to
perfection.
A branch office has been recently established
at No los, King street. Ifyou are prejudcedi in
favor of any particular machine, at least exam
inc the Howe before you purchase Remember
that Mr. Howe was tho original inventor of the
Sewing Machine, and gave twenty years Of his
life to perfecting this machine.
Every Howe Machine is warranted for ten
years constant uso by the company, and is kept
always in perfect order by tho local agency.
I Il, ,otn Il tbnir
residences by competent instructresses, i'll every
variety of plain and ornamental sewing.
An efficient lady operator will be in constant
attendance at tho Office, and machine stitching Of
every description will be neatly and promptly
executed. j. KARR, General Agent,

to respect n set of their SER
wants which violates or t~ranscends
its provisions, To deny the right to
| reverse or condemn any action of the
rulers for the time being, because, for
sOOth, il is an accomplished fact,
is to surrender the whole question
Of the freedom Of the people,
which no Democrat can for moment
think Of doing. If the Democratic
party would obtain power again, it
must command the confidence and re-
spect of the people. This it cannot
do by any Sinking, trimming, dOdg-
ing policy. II must stand out bold
and defqnt, inscribe its principles on
its banners, write them In terms so
plain that he who run may read,
attack Radicalism not only in its
weak, but in its strong points also
attack it along the whole line.
For ten long weary years Of storm
and tempest, the Democratic party
has stood to its principles with a sub
lime faith. The fanaticism of de-
bauched Radicalsm, the stake andth
dungeon struck no terrOrs to the
! Spartan band of Democrats, who,
amidst Imprisonment and perseeu-
tions Rugged as close to their bOsoms
their principles as the Christians
clasped to their breasts the Holy
! Cross, and are such Democrats now
going to a~cquiesce in measures for Op-
posing which they have endured so
much? Notwithstanding the clamOr
Of the political gamblers, the people
viii see to it that the Democratic ban

and viii follow principle wherever
it may lead them; and cut loose from.
party, when it is whirling them on
whittier they would not go. WeknOw
there is sometimes a spell about q
name-a charm that attaches to the
magic word which Wakens old assOci-
ations Of the happy pasta alismanic
tie that connects the mind, and the
heart too, Of every earnest man with
the dear old name Of the good old
party he served so faithfully and so
long. To hear the familiar word is
like listening to the mention of a
cherished friend we shall never meet
again. But when that name is
only a mementO to remind Us of what
it meant, not what it means; when
when the party no longer lives; its Or
ganizatiOu is prOstituted, and its old
principles have either faded away
OF yields to usurpatiOus as accom-
pIished facts" it is due to his country
and to himself that every man who
nobly followed its flag as long as a
fragment Of its bunting doated to tell
of its existence, should now bravely
take position ON the ground where
the defenders of the Constitution are
called upon to rally for the liberties
of a people and not the interests of a
party. A name is naught. Princi-
piles are everything. Mere partisan
preferment is the aim Of the seIf-seek-
ing ADVENTURE. The triumph Of right |
over wrong, of truth over treachery, /
of law over license, OF freedom and
fairness over intolerance, usurpatiOn
and tyranny, are the purposes Of the
patriot in becoming a partisan.
