The American Washer !
PRIC. $3.50.

FhlC, DO.OU.
The American Washer Saves Money.
Time, and Drudgery.
The Fatigue of Washing Day no
Longer Dreaded, but Economy, Eff
cheney, and Clean Clothing, Sure.
In calling public attention to this little
machine, few of the invaluable qualities,
mot possessed by any other washing ma
chine yet invented, are here enumerated.
1t is the smallest, most compact, most port
able, most simple in construction most cas-
lily operated. A child ten years old, with
few hours practice, can thoroughly compre-
bend and effectually use it. There is 20 ad-
justing, no screws TO annoy, no delay in
adapting 1t is always ready for usei Il
is perfect title wonder 1t is a minute
giant doing more work and of better
quality, than the most elaborate and costlye
Ono-half of the labor is fully saved by its
use, and the clothes will last half longer
thar by the old plan of the rub board. II
will wash the largest blanket Three shirts
at time, washing thoroughly In a word,
the ablution of any fabric, from Quilt to q
Lace Curta OF Cambria Handkerchief, are
equally within the capacity of this LITTLE
GEM 1t can be fastened to any tub and
taken off at will.
Nomatter how deep rooted a prejudice
may exist against Washing Machines, the
moment this little machine is seen to per-
form its wonders, all doubts Ct its cleansing
efficiency and utility are bapished, and the
doubter and detractor at once become the
fast friends of the machine.
We have testimonials without end, setting
forth It's numerous advantages over all 9TH
ers. and from hundreds who have thrown
aside the unwieldy, useless machines, which
have signally failed to accomplish the OBJ
ject promised in prominent and loud sound
ing advertisements.
it IS as perfect for washing as a wringer
is for wringing. The price, another para
mount inducemert to purchasers, has been
placed so low that it is within the reach of
every housekeeper, and there is no article OF
domestic economy that will repay the small
investment so soon.

PRAISE.

from the Milwaukee Sentin Ell.
Earnest, sincere words of commen-
dation, such as own 40 kinshlp to fiat
terry, have saved more souls than all
the ireful denuneations that were ever
uttered or conceived. They are CHEEKY
gospel whose eloquence is resistless, be-
cause it is diyine. The exultation which
comes to true soul, when another
catches up responsive its thought or
endeavor, and sends it on with gener-
Gus words Of praise, is more fearful than
hilarious 1t is a noble exultatlen ;
triumph ia which there is no mixture OF
Iittleness or of meanness. 1t is deep
intense joy, coming from the past rec
ognizance of its power, and IS higher
and grander than are many of the
emotions commonly denominated sub
lime. True greatn ess turns away from
fattery with loathing, and it always
detects it, no mattel how artful the dis
gu:se it may wear. But true greatness
is never bellttled by merited praise.
Those natures that give way to vanity
were never large. Praise is the sun
light in which great natures thrive
Leave them long alone, unrecognized,
and they fail to bourgeon into glory of
which they are capable. No life can
feed entirely upon itself and grow.
There must be outward light penetrat-
ing it, or the inward light will fail to
ray out | have thought, sometimes,
that plants grow faster and greener
and happier when csressing hands
pass over their leaves, and voices, low
with tenderness, tell them of re sum-
mer time. Children do, | know, and
strong men and women do. And may
be even God is greater for the praise we
give Him.

Mr.. GREELEY IN TEXAS.

1t is something new for Horace Greeley to
be reported visiting and speaking in the south
ern States. The world has moved within the
last ten years for such an event to be possible.
We hope it indicates that the time is at hand
when men may speak and write their political
sentiments in any State of the Union without
hindrance. Alter serenade at Galveston on
the 10th, Dir. Greeley was called and spoke
from the balcony Of the Hotel as follows:
He said it was not his purpose in visiting
the State, to speak at all upon subjects on which
the people have been much at variance.
ne events OF the past are beyond recall;
there they stand; they could not be mcnded.
They had been great bsne Of contention, but
since the struggle was over, it became Il duly

Bile the injuries which the common country
had suffered. The right OF peaceful revou-
tons and change of Government was affirmed
and the duty OF the citizens to the Govern

explained and illustrated by reference to the
early Convention to form the Constitutions
A State coming into the Union, like New
York or Texas, could not withdraw at pleas

solved like mass meeting. The violent de-
termination of portion Of the Soulli-not

was allowed no alternative, they accepted the
issue. New that the appea! to the sword had
decided the matter, there let it rest. Let the
whole people turn Their attention TO the restor-
alton Of peace, order, and prosperity. No
country possessed such marvellous capacities
for development. The result of the war
made it essential that the blacks should have
the ballot to protect themselves, and that Al M

should be restored TO all classes. A ease OF

PENIS FL VANLA.

The republicans of Pennsylvania held
their State Convention on the 18th. In
their resolutions adopted, they insist that
the credit of the nation shall be maintain
tanned. home industry encouraged and
protected, favor civil service system for
appointments to office, the reduction of
taxation as fast as consistent with the
steady payment of the national debt, and
the security of persons and property in all
the States and honest elections. They
commend the policy of retrenchment and
economy pursued by the administration
and declare that its course meets the full
approval of the republicans of Pennsyl-
vania. Among their resolves upon State
matters, is one in favor of the abolition OF
the State tax on personal estate. They
denounce the democratic party for its adj
herence to violence and wrong in the
South the past winter There are but two
candidates to be elected on the State tick
ct, one for Auditor General, the other for
Surveyor General. The resolution endors-
ing the administration was amended by
an addition declaring President Grant

lican party in 1872"

THE FISHERIES.

A synopsis of the brief of Secretary Fish
has been published. 1t contains statement
of the matter from its earliest history to the
present time, differing but little if any in sub
stance from articles already published in our
columns. The conclusions to which Mr.. Fish
arrived are as follows.
/. That the acquisition of the right 20
American fisherman to fish on the in-shore
fisheries, from which they are now excluded,
is more important as removing danger of col
lision than as of great intrinsic value. Its
money value is probably overestimatcd by the
Canadians.
2. That the British headland doctrine has
no foundation in the treaty has been decided
against Great Britain in cause where it was
the only issue, and is now insisted upon theo-
retically rather than practically.
3. That the right now asserted to exclude
American fishermen from the open ports of
the Dominion, to prevent them from purchas
ing bait, supplies, &C.. to prevent them from
transhipping their fish in bond, under color of
the provisions of the Convention of 1918, is
an assumption and construction of that in
strument which was never acquiesced in by
the United States, and is carrying out in prac
tice provisions which were proposed to the
United States by the British Commissioners
in 1916, and were rejected by the former.
4. That the mackerel fishery, out of which
the trouble mostly comes, is a matter that has
come into existence since the negotiation of
the treaty, and it is a subject for considera-
ten whether the terms of the Convention
are fairly applicable to it.
The remedies suggested by Mr.. Fish are
that the whole of the reserved fishing grounds
be thrown open to American fishermen and
all obnoxious laws be repealed or by agreeing
upon the construction Of the disputed renun-
citation; upon the principles upon which a
line should be run by joint commission, to
exhibit the territory from which American
fishermen are to be excluded upon measures
to be taken for enforcing colonial rights, the
penalties to be inflicted for a forfeiture of the
same and mixed tribunal to enforce the
same. A suggestion is also made for the ad
mission, free Of duty in both countries, of the
fish taken in the waters open to both nations
