A FEW reasons why they should have the
IN preference over all others:
l. Wheeler Wilson's Sewing Machine ia
much simpler than any of the others; re-
quiring lees than half the amount Of ma
chinery.
2. AS the result Of this simplicity, this ma.
chine is much less liable than the others to
get out of repair.
8. Another reeult OF this simplicity is
greater durability.
4. Another result is less friction. and, con.
aequently, greater ease and rapidity OF mo-
lion, with less noise.
5. And greatest Of all, that it uees no Shut
tie, and makes the lock stitch.
It ie the cheapest to buy the best. Buy the
bly, won reputation and independence
against strong and bitter competition. For
more than twenty years has the Wheeler i
Wilson not only stood fret and foremost. but
now stands the un1ivaled Sewing Machine O!
the enlightened civilized world. Buy the ma.
chino that has been thus tested and proved
and then you are cure to get thu best. Fol

in 1870, which, in all It's parts was a most
extraordinary transaction. The Govern.
ment had at that time contract then run.
ming TO transport all Indian goods to the
Missouri river agencies, at rates ranging
from 81 3S per hundred pounds to IS II,
according to the month when the freight.
ing was 70 be done. But Notwithstanding
this running contract, at the prices named,
the Commissioner OF Indian Affairs
made private contract to pay an aver.
age OF $3.50 per hundred pounds, On
this contract $179247 were paid, not d.
Tecily 10 tho freight contractor, but to the
beet and provision contractor already re.
ferred 10, who deposited the money TO his
own credit, and afterwards paid to the
freight contractor $65,143 IS out Of the
$179 ,247l As this amount Of $65,14 rs
is about what the Government ought to
have paid for the service at the public con.
tract rates, there Is room for inference as
TO how and among whom the excess was
divided. a n - slal. I'D. 4.
The committee Of appropriations say
that they find no evidence Of corruption
against the Commissioner, nor do we; but
they also say that they find much TO criti-
else and condemn in the administration Of
his office. Alter q perusal Of tho forego-
ing, which Is written as dispassionately as
the case admits Of, we are persuaded that
no reader who has business Of his own to
transact, would DO willing to employ as
an agent one who discharges important
duties in that style. ~

ARCHITECTURE OF THE HUMAN EN-.
vELoPE-It is pity that there are so
many men in the handicrafts who arc
content 10 be mere artisans, and so few
who aspire TO DO artists. There is scope
for art In almost all the trades. But how
often, for instance, do you find boot.
maker that can satisfy the artistic de-
mands Of the human tOOtS Where Is the
tailor who ever thinks of studying the
stature ofman to decide whether nature
prGdestined his frame for long skirts or a
bobtailG And where is the halter who
can build upon man with hat so rs to
to finish him rOOiward, as It woro,
in the same style Of architect.

halter Of the period botchcs humanity
worse than any other workman In the
business. There has not been a bccom.
ing headgear invented, as nearly as my
memory serves me, for tho last hundred
years. The ugliest product Of modern
civilization Is the gentlGmAn's hat There
are no artists In the trade. Neither are
there in the BARRIERS trade. Without any
regard to shape Of head or style Of fea.
lures, these tonSorial despollers NOV every

An Endless Chain.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
Among mechanical forces Is one
which may be termed an endless chain.
In manners and morals there Is the same
sort Of power or influence, the linked con.
nection Of cause and effect. Causes and
effects continually change places, cause
becoming effect by rotation, and effect be-
coming cause; and as the nursery song
says, 80 the wheel goes round" A per.
sonAge In one Of the novels Of popular
authOr-Marryat, we believe-hOlds the
opinion that the world resumes the same
position once In Q given number Of years.
Men and things come round again to pre-
cisely the same position. Perhaps, exact
facts would not exactly establish this ex-
act statement. But it sometimes happens
that the less o theorist hos to do with
facts, the more interesting and attractive
is his theory. Still, there does seem
something more than plausible in this
notion OF rotation, and certain general
conclusions would seem to have the evi.
dence ofhistory and the lessons Of expe-
rience on their side. Some thoughtful
German has worked out the following
"schema," which Is inscribed on the town
hall in Berlin, in anticipation Of the illumi-
nations for peace, for which German
hearts arc longing;
Peace brings wealth;
Wealth brings pride;
Pride brings war;
War brings poverty; -..

A oURloUs connection between tho Bi.
bic and a recent fashion in journalism, is
to be noted. The Bible says in II Chron.
iCles, "In his disease Asa sought not to the
Lord, but to the physicians. And Asa
slept with his fathers" This passage Is
somewhat similar to this sort Of paragraph
which one frequently meets with In the
newspapers: "Smlt6 Jones tried to light
a fire with kerosene the other day. His
funeral was largely attended" In both
forms Of phrase0logy, 1t will be observed,
the Nippresso Neri Is very cleverly con.
ceived, while the sequel is fairly stated by
implication. H. AD. l..ur ,a
