which General Grant once accepted but

DELIGHT IN STRIFE.
If lie finds no enemy he fi,llsSupnn' his
friends, as when he struck at the Black
Republic, insulted Russia in his annual
message, offended both France and
Germany, and then in personal relations
quarreled generally. My own personal
experience teaches how futile is the
charge that when Horace Greeley re-
ceives Democratic votes therefore he be-
comes Democrat or lapses into De-
mocratic control. Twas the first choice
to the Senate by the coalition of
FREE. soILERs AND DEMOCRATS.
Democratic votes helped make me

also helped make my excellent friend.

help make Horace Greeley President.
But neither Mr.. Chase or myself were
on this account less faithful as Free
S"llers; and, answering for myself, I
know that never became Democrat,
or lapsed under Democratic control. |
do not doubt that Horace Greeley will
be equally consistent. The charge to
the contrary, SO vehemently repeated,
seems to refiect the character Of those
who make it, except that many repeat
it by rote. There is a common sayil @.
PRINCIPLES NOT MEN,
and on this ground an appeal is made
for President Grant, feeling that in any
personal comparison with Horace Gree
ley he must fail. But the better saying
is principles, not men. ! am IN favor

party in contradiction to Grantisn,,

their triumph shall always rejoice.
II any valued friend separates from me
now, it will be because he places
MEN ABOVE PRINCIPLES.
Early in public life declared my
little heed for party and my indiffer-
ence to the name by which am called;
and now confess my want of sympa-
thy with those who wonld cling to the,

The Memorable Fire Of Chicago

Has given such an opportunity of show
irg-as it is much to be hoped may
never occur agdln-how the citizens of
that city at least regard the different
machines claiming public attention.
Ii is stated in the Report of the SPE-
CIAL RELIEF COMMITTEE, as pub
lished in the Chicago Tribune, March
9th,) that the whole number of Sewing
Machines for which orders have been
issued to the date of this report is 2944,
on which the Committee have paid the
sum of $7l ,430 80. The number sup
piled by each company is as follows:

lgnateu the kind Of machine desired.n
The returns of sales of the different
sewing machines, during the year 1871,
show the Singer machine to be by far
the most popular Of all in the market,
Che number sold being 1871 $50, out ola
total OF 6lo,l94 of twenty-five different
patterns. 1t appears, too, that the
Chi1go Relief Committee, which un-
dertock to furnish, sewing machines to
persons needing them, supplied 2427
Singer machines against 517 Of all 9th
er kinds. This preference for the Sim
ger machine is due to its intrinsic su-
periolity, and seems likely to be main
tanned against all competition.-[New
York Sun.
Which is the best machine, is q point
on which different companies differ
each, of course, thinks its o,vn the best.
One may have advantages for one kind
of work, and another for another. But
if the point were to be decided by pop
ularity, the Singer machine would out
strip all otlers.--[N. Y. Evangelist.
