lence and beauty.
2. This machine is more durable than any
other of lbs class, requiring much less outlay
for repairs and renewal Of parts.

an Opposition House of Representatives., the

f, We are running the Wheeler & Wilson Sew

Of 7O0 stitches per minute on Ladies' and

to any other machine in the following par

1t will close seams with heavy silk in leather
tighter, without puckering, than any machine
we know. 1t will close leather seams with
Mhrshali's Cabled Thread ct above speed equal
to the Howe Cylinder Machine.
1t runs faster and makes more regular

A Card from Roberts"
From the Sunday Herald Of September H.
610 THIRTEENTH STREET,
WASHINGTON, September +.

Clio THIRTEENTH STREET,
WASHINGTON, September +.
1. N. Burritt, esq:
SIR In THE REPUBLICAN of this morning /
read letter signed by you commenting on the
article in last Sundays Gazette signed
''Nemo." As far as your comments on the
article in question is concerned have nothing
to say, but will confess I read with painful
surprise your assertion on credible" informa-
tion that "Nemo" and "Roberts" were one
and the same person. OF the Memo article I
know as much about as any reader of the Sun
day Gdzette, and no more, and my letter in The
REPUBLICAN of the 18th was in answer and con-
tradiction to it. My respect and esteem for
you as a journalist, gentleman and a soldier
makes me write this note to you, asking you
to either prove your charge or acquit me, in
stead of writing a card for the papers, as was
first suggested to me. Every one that knows
me in private life knows that / stand by what
/ say, and those who have done me the honor
to read my articles will do me the justice to
say carry this peculiarly into public life, and
that "RobeTts" has never been afraid to speak
her mind plainly, and never has shown a dis
position TO shirk any responsibility under an
anonymous communication. Unfortunately l
am not infallible, and being human flesh and
blood am liable to make mistakes and to be
in the wrong, but / am always ready and
willing to acknowledge it. l am not.willing
to be placed, as you place me in your article
of to day, among the ''gush and slush" style
of journalism, of which l agree with you we
see so much of here, but which have
studously tried to avoid. -
Sincerely yours, Mrs. ROBERTS.
I'VE are happy to give place to " Roberts"
disayoWal, and regret that We chrouicled the
National Republican., 1876-09-18

Mr.. CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS accepts
the nomination for Governor as though he
was comforting great favor on somebody
by SO doing. He does not even acknowl.
edge it as coming from the Democracy, 4"
but from a convention of voters of Massa-
chusetts." He accepts from principle, 1"
he tells the president Of the convention of
delegates, but is careful to remind him in
the same breath that he never in his life
Solicited an office" And now he only
accepts from principle" He is old, he
says, but being satisfied that the ruling
party is not capable of reforming the
prevailing tendency to corruption in of
"fcial station, he will take hand at it
himself
