During the last six months a plainly
dressed, graceful lady, accompanied by
three or four attendants, might have
been met any day walking in the lanes
in and about Chiselhurst. Few of those
meeting her and failing to recognize q

an Empress and wife of the ruler over n
great and powerful nation. With the
resignation of royalty she has abandon
ed every appearance of state. Every
Sunday she walks to the little Catholic
chapel, whatever the weather NAV he.

The Democratic journals, especially
in the West, strongly condemn Senator
Summers recent declaration that he
should vote for the Ku-Klux bill, not
withstanding its Objectionable features.
No cry of centralism or Imperialism,
said Mr.. Sumner, "could deter him. He
was for the centralism of liberty and
the Imperialism of equal rights. Once
the nation served slavery in the interest
of State rights; nowit must serve liberty
even TO the denial of State rights.U


AS our contemporaries everywhere OBJ
serve, this involves a false and pernic-
ious doctrine. Liberty can only be
secured by law; and if we set aside the
Constitution in the name of liberty in
1871, we may overthrow it in order to
make a favOrite candidate President
by military power and sham election
in 1872.


This avOwal seems to have put an end
to all possibility of Mr.. Summers being
nominated as the Democratic candidate
for the Presidency. He is not the man
on whom all parties can unite in a new
era Of general good feeling.-Nep YORK

others, be assured, if you are faithful,
that in some way they will be made up

There are but few inventions or discoveries
which produce a complete revolution in any de-
partment of labor. To have supposed, a year ago,
that the dirtiest garment could be washed clean,
in twenty thirty minutes, by boiling alone,
would have been regarded as an indication of in
sanity. But it has been demonstrated beyond any
doubt, that this process not only cleans the Clothes
but that garments thus washed become whittier and
clearer the longer it is used. Some people suggest
that clothes will get yellow after awhile. by being
washed in this way but such supposition has no
foundation in fact, and is contradicted by the ex
perience of every lady who has adopted this mode
of washing.


Everybody who has tried the machine in Shasta
have expressed themselves highly pleased with
its operations. 1t must be to be fully appre-
ciated, its full merits cannot be properly set
forth in ordinary advertisement


Public and private tests have been given of this
apparatus for the last six months, and more than a
million of people have witnessed its success. Ten
thousand boilers sold in New York City in less
than five opths, from stand, and at this time
the orders reach about one hundred day. Ne
one used it directed that did not recommend
it. 1t has been recommended by more than five
thousand persons in less than six months. Among
the names those of the most distinguished cit
izcns of the United States but the best
dation is to take the boiler and use it yourself Do
just as you are directed and you will be than
satisfied. 1t appeals to us all as matter of econ
omy, and can be shown to be the best kind of an
investment. 1t will return yearly dividend in
cash of TWO HUNDRED PER CENT Jon the
money invested. For instance, will suppose
your white clothing such as bed and table linen
ladies' and gentiemens' wear, and childrens' cloth
ing, only cost you $40 a year. They will last twice
as long washed in this way as by the old method.
Thus, you a~tually $50 year by investing 10
or 200 per cent. annually. Thsre ris. no family
scarcely but spends than here stated but this
is taken very low average of this branch of
family expense. Added to this is the great con-
venience and comfort of the thing, which ,alltaken
together, makes it luxury which no. family
we'll afford to be without.


This Boiler sells the best of any article Offer
ed to the public. Anybody after trying it fairly
will not let it go out of of the house.

SUGGESTIONS. rts-e -


The clothes need not be wet before placing them
in the Boiler. 1t is of vital Importance to THOR
OUGHLY SUBS the clothing after boiling. Every
lady knows that the least particle of suds left in
the clothes to dry will cause the clothes to look
yellow. A brisk fire is important in order to Pro-
duce rapid boiling. Time may be saved by stirring
or turning the clothes occasionally while boiling
The cover should not be removed, except when
necessary, in order to insure quick work. If the
washing be large one, the clothes should be as
sorted, dirty shirts, for instance, will require
double the time of sheets, pillow cases. napkins,
&c.


Articles much soiled may be left in for second
boiling. White aannels may be beautiful washed
without FULLING) by this, process. They
should be put in when the water is hot, and rnsed
out in hot water.


Colored clothes should not be mixed with white,
and unless the colors are fast they should never be
washed by this process. The most delicate laces

fecty, without injury, by this process. The almost
absolute necessity of using soft, or "broken, !"

not that she was fishing contrary to law, but
that she had on board goods which in the ap-
prehension of the authorities, were to be
smugs'ed. This explanation makes the mat

that the goods were unlaien, or that any at
