He possesses in a marked degree

From the first sentence to the

To ANY TNJrN rrr ryrNyu Drynr


To AN INDULGENT PUBLIC:
We do not propose to
write you a Lecture. Sermon, or
Essay on the frailties of Human
nature. but wish to have a con-
fidcntial chat with you on that
subject, as far as it is connected
with the Watch and Jewelry bus
mess. When we first started in
this business in the spring of
1875, it was with high hopes
and high and holy desire to do
Justice to all beth in good. sold,
work repaired and to reap pc
cuniary reward, sufficient to help
as eyer the rough places of life,
In our short experience of ap-
premiership previous to that
time zoe did not claim 10 know
it all, but expected at all times
to keep q practical and reliable
jOurneyman. But alas! How
quick the tide turned. A few
watches stepped, perhaps from
the neglect of the owners it
might have been our fault. Soon
it was said by some '.that boy
is not it to fix a watch;" Why I
bought watch key from him
and my watch stopped the next
day. i not, this, just such unreas
enable remarks drove away the
large trade of my predecessor,
then my journeyman had to go.
Then there ac0S trouble in the
jewelry store. Youth and mex
perience battling with the cold
heartless world. Many. except
some steadtast friends. ready to
fulfil the old adage, "When q
man commences to go down hill
give him q kick" But with a firm
belief that truth and right would
prevail / held on With a pluck
and energy that had it been APP
piled to other business or other
places, would have enabled me
to count my dollars by the thous.
ands instead of hundreds. But
the past has gone and cannot
be retrieved. Thirteen years
have nearly passed away, and
with the struggles and triumphs
Of business here and in the trade
work shop Of Phila, find that
l have dearly bought the exper.
fence that now enables me to
say am competent to put in
good order any work that you
may leave with me. I devised
Watchmakers Record for nv
own use but conceived the idea
of placing it on the market for
sale Attempting to do this I
found l was unable to meet the
requirements of nay increasing
trade, SO called from the city nv
former helper Mr.. Wm. Shep-
pard, who is too we'll known to
need any recommendation from
me as this is hi, native place, he
worked at the business here for
three years, and several months
in fine jewelry and repair store
in Phi!a. VIII ere he would yet haye
been had not this opportunity
offered at home. Thanking yoa
my friends Tor ysur past favers
I would respectfully solicit the
future patronage of all, assuring
you that ali work will be done
rs promptly and at as low q
price as is consistent with good
workmanship. / have not time
to tell you about the goods I
keep for sale. A new stock If

No Need of DIsduietude.

The Republicans in the House seem to
have resolved to prevent a final vote on
the tariff measure at this session, and
propose that the parties shall enter into
the election without defining their posi-
lions by vote on the pending bill. This
u natural course for party to pursue,
whose representatives are not united
upon their policy. There is some difference
In the Democratic party upon the i,sue
but that existing in the Republican parly
- much greater. We note that even
that bold free-trader, Watterson, is able
to correctly construe the Democratic
p0,ition on the tariff, conceding that il is
not position for free trade, but simply
for q reduction of duties to relieve a
plethoric treasury, and doing no injury
70 manufacturing industries that are now
protected.
Nc. Watterson Is a free trader in the
abstract and expects free trade to be the
policy Of the country sometime in the
future, but he comedies that it will not
come until 1t becomes the demand of the
manufacturer. We confess surprise that
ono 70 rash in expression, and so hot in
senumeat as Mr.. Watterson, would con-

The Tram Nuisance.

We invite the attention of the city au.
thorities TO the tramp nuisance. III
seems to us that the police could be more
efficient In its suppression. The force ID
not very great, IL is true, and canno! oe
everywhere at once, but it certainly
should get over the city often enough 10
prevent the camping down OF beggars on
the sidewalk for hours at a time. Last
evening on the corner OF Shippen and
Orange streets, a tramp reposed upon his
bag on the sidewalk for several hours be-
fore a policeman could be found to re-
move him.
And we suggest to our householders
that they can and should do their part
towards suppression Of the nuisance by
sending to the station house for a police
man whenever tramp comes to their
doors begging. Such a course Is de-
manded in the interest Of public order
These men should not be supported in
idleness. They are nearly always able tt
work and they are generally an impu
dent and bad lot. Yesterday when ont
of them was offered buttered bread, HI
asked Haven't you something warm p
and walked away, refusing the bread
We hear Of another one who compliance
of the butter and said he would bring til
family half pound the next time h
came around.
Charity is very good, but ill.advise
charity is an evil gifts 10 the undeser,
ing are always wrong and tramps are
very unworthy class.
