diary. Its wide streets and substantial build
ings were better protection against destruc-
ton by fire than the weapons or the courage
of its defenders. So it must be with every
city we'll and wisely built If Boston had
long ago exchanged its crooked cowpaths for
wide and straight avenues fire at the corner
Of Kingston and Summer streets would not
have swept everything before it from Wash
ington street to the water and almost as far as
Faneuil Hall. Failing to take this necessary
precaution, Boston now suffers as many other
cities suffered before this latest lesson was
added to the long list Of the calamities Of the
past.
There is one point in this Boston fire which
must not be overlooked. 1t was O Mansard
roof which lifted up and scattered the flames
broadcast over the city. any une VINO will
take the trouble TO look up at some of the
buildings now under construction in this city
will readily understand the dangers which
lurk under these frail, insufficient and COM
bustible roofs. In Broadway, between Union
sqnare and Twenty-third street, and in the
latter street are buildings recently covered
which some day or other may do for New York
what similar structure has just done for
Boston. One of the correspondents of the
HERALD, in describing the origin of the fire and
the rapid spread of the flames, refers to this
building as surmounted by high Mansard,
overtopping all the houses in the vicinity
Upon this elevated fre-box the flames roared
and cracked and were at once carried by the
high wind from roof to roof, block to block,
corner to corner. An hour before it looked
grand enough and secure enough, but the fire
gave the lie to all its pretensions of grandeur
and security. 1t was licked up more readily

A WORD In REGARD
TO THE
Sewing Machine Business.

THE SEWING MACHINE is one of the
greatest improvements of the age, and at this
day and age of the world every family must
and will have one. This fact appears to be
perfectly understood by oil Sewing Machine
Companies, consequently every company is
making every effort in their power to put
their machines forward, and to make s,.les as
rapidly as possible. They employ every per-
son they can get, and three-fourths of those
employed are not fit for the business, conse-
quently the country is now overrun with men
and boys representing themselves as Sewing
Machine Agents,and everyone claimingt to have
the best machine, when, in fact, they know
nothing about machines, consequently the
business has become a nuisance-it is over
done and oyerrun with unprincipled agents,
and almost every farmer breads to see one
stop at his gate.
But to lay all prejudice aside, the New VIII
son is the only First-class Machine in America
that is sold at a reasonable price; price with
in the reach of every family. The New VIII
son stands to-day at the head as being the best,
the simplest, the easiest to manage, the most
durable, and by far the cheapest. The Wilson
now costs $500 more to manufacture than any
other machine in America, and is sold for
S25OO less than any other frst-class machine.
This simply because it is not in the "Com-
bination." This machine is sold for Just what
tits worth, while all others are sold from
$500 to $4,000 more than they are worth.
The undersigned has been selling the VIII
son for one year at his Grocery and Crockery
Store in Fremont, and has sold Five Hundred
Machines, and nearly all have been sold in
Sandusky County, and have never yet had
an agent out soliciting sales or boring the peo-
pie to buy Every machine has been ordered.
This, think, is the largest sale that has ever
been made in the county. This fact of itself
is certainly sufficient evidence that the ma
chine Is good one. All other companies have
drummed and bored the people nearly to
death to sell their machines, and in very many
instances people have bought simply to get rid
of the agent Now, we claim that the proper
way, and the only way, to buy machine, is tc
go town and see and try all the machines and
select for yourself-buy machine in the same
way that you buy a dress, or a set of dishes
or a dollars worth of sugar. There are now
some six or eight different kinds of Sewing
Machines represented in this city, try then
all, select for yourself, and do not be hum.
bngged by agents, and nine out of every ter
win buy the Wilson. p. CLOSE.

Can't Govern the Country:

Chas. Sumner says: "Grant can't
govern this country" and quotes
Stanton to prove it. The circum-
stance of the case reminds us of the
old story about the man in jail. He
entertained the belief that he was
illegally confined, and so sent for a
lawyer to consult about the matter.
After listening to the prisoners 8
story, the lawyer said with a conf
nent smile: "Pshaw! man, they
can't put you In jail for that
Cant they thought"
"Certainly not, the thing is pre-,
posterous. They can't put man
in jail for any such action"
"But they have though" urged
the prisoner, who fully agreed with
the lawyer that they couldn't do it;
but was unable to get it out of his
head that he was in jail neverthe-
less.
81 tell you my dear fellow, it is
impossible; they can't imprison you
on a charge like that; it's against
the law.
"But they have done it." cried the
prisoner, stubbornly, and with rising
anger, "and confound 'em here /
am, want to get out"
"But 1 say they can't do it. If
you understood the first thing about
law you would see they couldn't
yourself. Mr.. Blackstone says
"Oh-Blackstone! amt l here and
haven't I been here for the last six
Weekspn
"I tell you they can't put you in
Jail for this" shouted the lawyer,
springing out of his chair, and
growing excited himself because his
client stupidity refused to listen to
the points of the law in the case.
"AndI tell your yelled the pris-
oner, jumping to his feet and dane
ing around with excitement and ex-
asperation, "they have done it, and
1 am here in Jail, and likely to stay
Eere for all of you"
Grant has governed the country,
is governing it, and may continue to
govern it four years more for what
we can prophesy. He can't do it
though, of course not.-Fat Contri-

This wonderful vegetable
restorative is the sheet-an-

stOmachics. AS a remedy for
the nervous weakness to
which women are especially
subject, it is superceding ev-

climates, tropical, temperate

tFrom the Philadelphia Press
EOrnP on Sumner.

1t will not help the cause Of the repub-
lican party or Geu Grant to abuse aud
disparage Charles Sumner. He is one Of
the graudest historical characters OF our
time, standing almost alone III the iin.
inensity Of his intellect aud the subimity
OF his patriotism and integrity He is
the ideal of democratic senator in Il
republic approaching more nearly, the
Roman model than any man that lives
to-day. His life is record of absolute
fidelity to liberty and human rights-of
that rare virtue that clings to right in the
absence of reward and at the expense of
preierment. In the struggle against
slavery and caste he has been the fore.
most man in America, aud through all
the mutations Of our politics, the apostasy
OF somo leaders and the lukewarmness OF
others, Charles Sumner has been consist
ent in his rigid devotion to repubicanism
in the widest meaning Of the term.
1t is said that Mr.. Sumner "has done
some service tor the black man as against
his democratic enemies," but it was "the
great republican party that gave him
liberty, citizenship, his rights as human
beirg, protection from democratic knklux,
and laws which compel his enemies TO
treat him as a human being and not as a
beast" 1t will be readily granted that
it was the republican party Of the couu-
try that did all these things for the color
ed man, simply because every intelligent
man knows that in free land the act OF
ono individual could not effect so much,
but the republicans did all these at the
instigatiou of Charles Sumner indeed at
the coercion of his mighty brain aud
eloquent tongue He was an emancipa-
touist before Abraham Lincoln dreamed
of issuing his proclamation. He advoca-
ted universal suffrage in the Senate years
before the republican party in convention
assembled had the temerity to say SC
slight thing as that, while the suffrage
question in the loyal states belonged tc
the people thereof, at the South it should
be granted to the loyal blacks aud he
alone, even as late as the last session oI
Congress, Of all the republicans in the
Senate, dared advocate a measure that
gave the black man the last full measure
of liberty and equality.
We deeply regret the present position
OF Senator Sumner. but more the personal
abuse that is heaped upon him, and while
: We hold that every colored man owes il
as sacred duty to support the republi
can party and General Grant in the pres
ent crisis, we hope none will be found ,un
grateful and ungenerous. to raise his hand
against the best and most faithful fricut
that ever espoused the cause Of the weaI
or oppressed on this continent.

Mr. Greeley, if elected, will not nec-
essarily be Il democratic president. He
will be liberal republican. He will not
be bound by any other policy than that
enunciated in the Cincinnati resolutions
lie has made no other promise than is
contained in his acceptance of those prin-
ciples as the guide OF his administration
aud whatever gratitude may prompt him
to do for the democratic party, or for in-
.lvidual democrats. utter he is elected, he
certainly is bound by 10 pledge to show
them any special favor whatever, or car
ry out any policy not already announced.
He is, in fact, the candidate of the liber-
al republicans, ani is pledged only to
their policy. As democrats We offer
o rselveS uninvitcd to assist them in es-
tabishiug their policy We only ask in
return that they shall secure US in the
peaceful enjoyment of IL good aud honest
government. This is all the reward we
ask for our services From the Rich
mond Enquirer.
The democracy have asked nothing for
themselves. They have unhesitatiugly
idop,ed the platform laid down by the
liberals, and they have with unprecedent-
ed unanmity coucurred in the nomina-
tlons made BY the liberals. Though they
have made Greeley and Brown their
nominees, Greeley and Brown do not
claim to be democrats, nor do they claim
it for them. With unexampled selt.ab.
negaton they have given, and freely Civ.
en-, both the platform and the candidates
to their allies 1t those allies respond as
they should, and as we believe they will,
au overwhelming majority will be the re-
suit. We congratulate the country on
the new political era which has dawned
upon it. The Cincinnati and Baltimore
conventions have proved that in the esti.
nation Of the people patriotism is above
party. The movement which has been
so successfully inaugurated is based on
the ignoring OF the passions and prejudi-
ces growing out OF the war and Of all
worn out and etfete issues, and propose
the fraternization of the people and the
sections. 1t promises the restoration of
! honesty and purity in the administration
OF national affairs and of constitutional
government. A new departure" has
been ia ken from the party politics of the
past twelve years, and that departure
coutemplates the cooperation of all the
liberal-muded and patriotic citizens, with
out regard to former party associations
in the reiustation Of the government up
ON true republican basis.-[ From The
