all but three are tor Greeley; and every one
of the 200 workingmei in the Working

sdiction would thus seem likely to prove
true.
Fifteen per cent. Of the Republican vote
of Wisconsin is already claimed for Greeley,
with specifications that seem fully to sus-
tain the pretentions. g Among the promi-
nent Greeley Republicans are Samuel d.
Hastings, chief, of the temperance men in
the State and for number of terms State
Treasurer, Judge A. Scott Sloan, Senator
Brown of Buffalo county, Charles Burch-
ard Of Dodge, ex-senator Cobb of jackson.
and ex-senator Clement Of Racine. Tho
Germans are without break in their support
of Greeley. Madison, the capital, reports
1913 Republicans for Greeley; in La Crosse
127 have already declared; whitewater go
Berlin half of all its Republicans; Lancas
ter all but one hundred out of BIG, and
so on. William e. Cramer, editor Of thu
Mil,oa,lkee Wisconsin, is s'sorehead,

HARDWARE.
Hardware Stock
FOR SALE AT COST.
A Rare Opportunity offered
to any one desiring to go
into the Hardware
Business.

TNHE CoPARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE
Il undersigned having expired by limitation, we
have determined to close our business, and now
offer our entire Stock of Hardware, which is
very complete in every Department, both in
light and heavy articles, selected and bought for
this trade, at the low prices that ruled before
the recent advances in Hardware. This stock
cost at least from 20 to 80 per cent below what
the class of goods can now be imported or pur-
chased from manufacturers for. Our location is
one OF the best in the city, No. 2S Broad street
an old established Hardware House, and the on
ly one on the street. 1t has large, well estab-
lished and lucrative trade.
Our desire is to sell the entire Stock, with the
privileges of the location, to party desiring to
20 into the Hardware Business in Nashville, and
our terms are so low that no better opportunity
can be offered to purchase and continue safe
and profitable business.
Pending this announcement, we will sell from
this date at cost for cash to Country Mer-
chants who desire to renew their Stocks of Hard
ware, to Builders, Carpenters, Blacksmiths and
all others wanting anything in the Hardware
line. Having determined to close our business
at once, and meaning what we say by selling at
cost for cash, purchasers will find it greatly TO
their interest to give us a call without delay.
Our stock being purchased at prices greatly be-
low the present advanced rates, this is an oppor-
tunity seldom offered for buying cheap Hard
ware. ....
We would say to our old friends and patrons
that our wish to close our business at once,
makes it necessary that those indebted to us
should come forward and settle Immediately.
We have no disposition to collect our dues by
law, and should regret to have to place accounts
in the hands of an officer for collection, but viii
be compelled to do so unless settlements are
made at once. We trust this notice viii be suti-
cient, as we mean that our business must be
closed at once. .

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-07-14

In these days of noxious etfiuvia, when
deodorizers are almost as much in request
as hair restOrers, any new disinfeetant viii
be gratefully received. 1t is therefore sat
isfaetory to learn from the P0oasa Observer
that a valuable discovery in this line has
lately been made in India, where, if rumOr
is correct, it must be doubly welcome.
After numerous experiments with roasted
coffee the result proves that it is one of the
most powerful means, not only of rendering
animal and vegetable eflpvia innocuous.
but of actually destroying them. A room
in which meat in an advanced degree of
decomposition had been kept for some time
was instantly deprived of all smell on an
open eoffee-rOaster being carried through it
containing pound. of coffee newly roasted.
In another room the eff1uvium Occasioned
by the cleaning out of a eesspool, so that
sulphuretted hydrogen and ammonia could
be clearly detected, was completely re-
moved within half minute on the employ
ment of three ounces of fresh coffee. The
best mode of using it as disinfectant is 20
dry the raw bean, pound it in mortar, and
then roast the powder ON a moderately
heated iron plate until it assumes a dark
brown hue, when it is ready for use.-Neae
York Commercial AdgertiSer.

About the year 1895, says a letter from
Colmar, a poor iourneyman turner. Of the
name of Muhle, badly shod, with wallet
on his back, entered the village in which
stood the machine factory of NM. Well &
Boutron, and applied for werk. His ragged
exterior did not spesk much in his favor,
and NJ Well, to whOTn he applied, refused
TO engage him. The workman sOrr0wfnIly
turned on his way. All of sudden be was
recalled BY the voice Of the owner of the
mandatory. stop what sort of hat
is that you wear 81 "a wooden hat. "A
wooden hat 7 Let me look at it closer.
Where did you buy it 2" II made il my
self, sir" Sand how did you make it y
"0h, on the turning lathe" But your
hat is oval, and the things made
on the lathe are round" 'Yes, that
is true" answered the workman, "but
in spite of that / made the hat. / displaced
the centre and then turned it as / pleased
/ required hat which would answer the
purpose of an umbrella, and as had no
money to buy one, was obliged to make
this one for myself" The poor workman
had instinctiveiv discovered the method of
eccentric turning which was to prove of SO
much Importance in modern mechanics. al.
We'll perceived, with the keen-sig htedness
of clever manufacturer, the immense i'm
portance of the discovery. He retained the
man with the wooden hat, and found him
not merely a skillful workman, but a
genius that only wanted opportunity and a
small degree of culture for its development.
The workman Muhle soon obtained a share
in the profits of the business, and became
later, under the name of Moulin, the pro-
pFietOr of it. He died a short time since
possessed of a large fortune.

Norcott. and one Of the firm Of Wye g.
Peasants. That Oh the day testified to as
the day Of the robbery both he and his
partner we're at their store at Noreott, and
there was sn unusual call for goods. Joe
Slifer was then in town; they knew him
well, had often employed him to work in
their store. On this particular day they
sent for him; he came Immediately, and be
remained at the store, waiting on Gus
toners, from two o'clock TO eight, without
once leaving it. Mr.. Peasants was in court,
and be could testify to the same facts.
The first question Of the district attorney
made the fellow start and SILVER.
" Are you in disguise
"Wh-Whatl' stammeFed the man.
Have you silver gray wig over your
dark hairlD
The man looked amazed and then fright
ened, but SAID nothing, and before he could
recover his seIf-p0ssession the district att0F-
ney had stepped forward and removed the
wig, revealing a smoothly brushed head Of
dark brown hair.
what does this meant he asked, sternly.
"Only fancy was the sulky answer.
1--WE worn that wig for years"
"Haye you, indeedl Did you wear it all

"At Noreott, to be sure"

"When did you arrive here at Carlisles"

The district attorney gave me triumph
ant wink and when he stated to the court
that be desired this witness TO be detained
till the close of the trial, the sheriff was al
rected to take charge of him. Mr.. Caleb
Wye came down from the stand with the
wig IN his hand and took a seat by the
sheriff, looking decidedly more bilious than
had vet seen him appear.
Mr. Peasants was now loudly called for
by the defense, but no one came forward.
The unexpected reception which the last
witness had met probably chilled the ardor
Of his confederate, and he wisely chose to
keep himself in the background. This,
then, was all the defense, and my evidence
at once blew it to the winds. / looked di-
rectly at Mr.. Wye ESQ called) while was

vious day, and saw him tremble like an

left Carhse the next morning, and
heard nothing more of the affair for several
weeks. Then q letter from the district at
tOTney, thanking me for the assistance
had rendered him, conveyed more details.
"The witness, Wye" he wrote, 'whose
real name is Nicholas Bray, was indicted
for perjury. very slight investigation
showed me that we could prove that he had
no right to the name of Wye; that neither
he nor any man by the name of Peasants
had ever kept store in NorcOtt, and that
neither of them was known there at all.
This, with their evidence, would have been
to coRvict him, and understand
ing it as well as anybody, he concluded to
save trouble and plead guilty. So he and
Slifer are both in the penitentiary, and will
keep there for term of years"

not Grant the soldier. | ask you to look
upon HIM now as the leader of a ring of
politicians who claim that the Republican
party is all justice, all honor, all mercy, and
above honest criticism, and that thew, with
Grant, constitute the Republican party, and
not upon General Grant, the successful
leader of our great Union armies. And

and his admirers have disgraced and hu-
INFLATED us as nation abroad; that he ar
rOgates to himself powers delegated alone
to Congress; that the whole tendency of his
administration is toward Capitalization; and
finally, that he attempted to force through
Congress the outrageous proposition to
place in his hands the power to suspend

might place a creature of his own at the
ballOt-box, backed by federal bayonets

elect himself to the high office he
has so shamefully disgraced it will not
do to say, Eyes, but Grant received the
sword Of Lee at AppOmattox Courthouse"
Gentlemen, the partisans of Grant are
p0werless to refute the charges of whole
sale frauds, of executive maladministra-
ton, Of dishonesty and corruption in high
est places, of the crimes and misdemeanOrs
of their chief himself. He and his partisans
are trampliDg upon the rights of the State
and the liberty of the people; they are
binding us over to q military despOtism,
going to do about it; didn't Grant capture
Lee at AppomattOx Courthouse ?" They
shut their ears to the indignant murmuring
of an awakening people. They close their
eyes to the omnibus strides already made
to Grants inOrdinate ambition and lust for
power, and, heralding abroad with peans of
ecstatic praise his most insignificant
achievements, they tremble at his nod and
bend in humble submission to his slightest
wish. Gentlemen, let US rather "be dogs

The women of Hartford, Connecticut, or.
gained last winter a system of charities
which ought to be initiated in other
cities. The chief point of success is the
"coffee-house," neat, bright little place
wherein simple dishes exeellently prepared
are to be had at an average. of five cents
each. This is intended to benefit not the
extremely poor, but those working people
whose slender purses can not bear the strain
of dinners at the usual rates Of restaurants.
fulfills it's object, and is paying
for itself. The upper part of the building
is reading room, where workingmen are
invited to the freshest publications. An
other part of this helpful plan is the imme-
date establishment of nursery, resem-
bling that of the Familistere, at Guise.
Society in Hartford last winter was placidly
dull; it became the fashion not to entertain,
but to hold meetings of charitable organ
izations instead The practical results of
those meetings do honor to the women of
that pleasant little city.
