The undersigned would respectfully announce
to the citizens of Alexandria and vicinity, that,
having introduced their improved
STEAM FEATHER rem OVATOR
into this place, they are now prepared to cleanse
and renoy ate feathers in the most efectual man
ner. BY pressure Of steam, and the way it is
applied together with the facilities for ventilat-
ing and drying which we have invented we
claim more effectually, and in less time, to rem
ovate feathers than by any process ever offered
to the public. Our process not only cleanses old
feathers from all impurities, relieving their
matted condition, thereby increasing their bulk
nearly one half, making them light and lively,
clesn and healthy, but also removes the diss-
greeable odor so common to new feathers, an d
destroys all moths and the liability thereto.
@s- For further particulars and prices see bills
which will soon be in circulation.
Satisfaction will be guaranteed or no charge
will be made.
Parties DESTROYS of examining the process are
respectfully invited to call at place Of bust
ness, NO. sc KING STREET,
between the hours of and II g. M, where the
patentee or his agent will DO found, who will
take pleasure in showing how the work is done.
Send in your orders and come and see the
process yourselves.

During all this period its prominent object mas
been to advance the interests of the people Of
whose life it is the daily chronicle. Its fortunes
have been their fortunes; it has shared their
prosperity and suffered in their disasters. Its
inspiration has been the desire to forward the
best interests of the community in which it is
located, and its own prosperity is. as it has been
purposey made, inseparable from that of tue
community it aims to represent When they
grow rich it hopes for reward commensurate
with its lsbors. While they are poor it expects
to work with them and for them, expecting to
make their success the measure of its own.

THE CASE OF Mr.. PENpLrros.-Ex-
Honorable George H Pendleton, of
Ohio. has been caught in the commits.
sion of an act Of an ugly face, to saw
the least Of it. 1t may be true that
the government was not wronged by it,
but neither was the government wronged
by the pos.-tradership sales. He ad-
mits that while acting a. President of the
Kentucky Central Railroad and as guar.
dian of minor children who were heirs
to large amount Of stock in said road
he succeeded in obtaining from Bel.
KNAPP claim Of this road against the
government amounting to $50, 900 and
that Of this amount be received for his
personal services and .pocketed the
sum Of $4,000. Now, admitting that
collision between Pendletou and Bel.
KNAPP has not been established, still ".
think it fairly inferable that Pendleton
has either wronged the railroad Of
which be was President or the minors
Of which he Was guardian or both by
apProp, iating to himself the lion 9 share
of claim which be was bound as a
fduciarv agent to have collected for q

New HAMpsHIRR ELEcrIoN.-The

it was to be q contest of purses rather

ders were hacked by the Administra-
ton, Of course they could, and did,
out5id and outbuy the democracy. and
the State was carried BY their ticket
by some 5000 majority. They also
elected majority of the Legislature
and Of the Governors Council. We
have beard and are hearing a great
deal about the venality Of public agents
and much virtuous indignation 10 ex.
pressed against men like Babcock, Bel.
KNAPP and Orville Grant, but few seem
to reflect that the general rascality of
public agents s1ch as now exists il only
possible among q venal people or that
voters who sell their ballots in the
highest market a. they do in New
Hampshire and rs they are coming to
do everywhere and in all parties are
the natural allies Of people like Ball
