Another Example Of Hard Times

Messrs. James J. Hamlock & Co.,
Wholesale merchants in the East,
who failed few months ago, have
just succeeded in making settle.
ment with their creditors. After
having completed their settlement
they found they had left In stock
10000 dozen ladies hose, gentle
men's fancy socks aud linen hand.
kerchiefs. To dispose of the same
in short time they adopted the
following plan: The above goods,
which are fully worth So per dozen,
were put up in half dozens In
boxes. In every one hundred
boxes they have placed $40 in coin,
as follows: In one box So SO in gold
coin aud in fifteen boxes so cents
each In silver coin. The boxes con-
taiuing the above articles are to be
sold at ST.. which gives the pur-
chasers 81 cents on each box less
than the wholesale price. Besides,
one may get So so in gold coin.
The proprietors of the Mechanics
store, 40 Main street, who are al
ways on the lookout for great bar
gains for their customers, succeed
ed in obtsining 1,000 dozen Of these
articles and will arrange them for
sale on Saturday, Dec. IA, 1878, at
their store, No. 40 Nam street. op-
pOsite the st. Charles Hotel.
We further wish to say to the
public that we have examined the
goods and find the same fully worth
81 SO n box, which will be sold at
81 per box, the purchaser receiving
81 so worth of goods for 81 and may
get 81 so in gold coin in with his
bargain.
Remember the sale will posi-
lively take place on Saturday, Dec.
18th, at the Mechanics store, 40
Main street.

Rip Van Wlnkle as presented by
Berps Dramatic Company. When

only fair to say that the play was
capitally mounted. There are of

OuTIuS InS CdINdSS mere ftepuU-
lican orators sought to make
point OH US that, if elected, we
would vote for him; but we never
denied that we woud, and asserted
our intention Of voting for the one
we thought the best man-whether
Mr.. Farley or another. Under such
circumstances, il there had been
such opposition to Mr.. Farley as
you supposed, it must necessarily
have come out, but nowhere did
the slightest sign appear; nor did
we ever receive the slightest inti-
nation of such feeling until Mr.
Farley was OH the eve of election,
and at a time when to have turned
from him would have been an act,
not only of weakness, but unpar-
donable treaGhery.
1t is a matter of regret to us that
there are some Democrats who dis.
agree with US in our estimate of
Mr.. Farley, but we do not believe
that they are us numerous as is sup
posed. You have, however, a right
| to your own opinion on this point,
| as we have to ours, and / do not
complain Of your expressing 1t.
What I do complain of Is the in
| situation that we did not act hon.
estly in voting for Mr.. Farley, but
were led to do 1t by the influence
| of the railroad company.
| 1t Is a matter of astonishnent to
me that you-knowing me as you
do, and knowing also the actual
record of the delegation IN the
Legislature-should attempt to cre-
ate such an impression; and, even
though compelled to believe 1t, l
still cannot help thinking that you
could not deliberately have intend
ed it, but that in your anxiety to
make point, you temporarily for
got what was due to Others and due
| to the truth.
You doubtless followed the pro-
ceedings OF the Legislature at its
last session, day by day, and read
of every vote that was cast by the
delegation on the railroad ques-
ton. You therefore know perfect
ly we'll that, In view Of the actual
record made by the delegation, any
suspicion of subserViency to the
railroad, on their part, is utterly
absurd. You cannot be- Ignorant
that, in the Senate, I actually sup
ported the Commissioner bills
and that, in season and out, [ did
everything In my power to secure
the legislation upon the railroad
question which the people here de
sired; nor can you be ignorant that
In the House, Mr.. Ellis and Mr.
Holloway acte,l and voted upo'

GLASS MILLSTONES.

Die MueAEe states that Herr Meissner, of
Thorn. Germany, has invented a crystal
glass milestone. The inventor was led to
construct this novelty from observing that
French burrs produced the best results
when they had the closest and most CLASSY
nature. The manufacture of glass mill
stones is pursued on the same plan adopted
in building French burrs. Eight pieces of
glass of equal size, containing nine cubic
meters, are used as nuclei the counter
piece of granite being kept open at the hole
and bound to the outer form with cement.
The burrows are cut with knife-picks, and
the dressing done with pointed hammers,
though the inventor recommends the use of
a diamond dressing machine. 1t is claimed
that these glass millstoues do better work
thar French burrs, running more easily,
grinding cooler, and producing finer and
