My attention litis been culled to an article In your

our State, our town, our Judges, Juries Ac makes a
most dastardly A flemllidi attack npon my good

Wni. II D.)bb
On turning this epistle over to our correspondent,
we arc presented with the following response:
PHILADELPHIA, May 21, 1800.
Wm. H. Dobb, Esq.
My Dear Sir: I must respectfully, yet firmly, de
cline to furnish you with my name and address.
"Justice," according to the fashion In which it is
meted out in the virtuons State of Delaware, is of
such a peculiar character, that I am not at all anx
ious to subject myself to the ordeal. On persona
grounds, I would much prefer to fall Into the
clutches of Fisk, Jr., and be locked up over
night In Ludlow Street Jail, with a million
dollar libel suit hanging over my pocket, than to
stand before a New Castle Jury and run the risk of a
conviction of slander which would doubtless con
sign me to the pillory for an hour or so, and the in
fliction of thirty odd lashes upon my bare back, to
say nothing of three or four years' residence In the
jail and the ornamentation of a convict's Jacket for
six months or more after my release. No, Mr. Dobb,
your Delaware "Justice" Is altogether too severe to
be palatable, even to conscious Innocence, and the
invitation conveyed In your very polite note of yes
terday la therefore "declined, with thanks."
But really, Mr, Dobb. I cannot oloso without ex
pressing my Intense surprise at the mere fact of
your existence, and my still greater astonishment
that such a model citizen of Delaware by the name
of Dobb should have confused himself with the exu.
bcrant and entirely Imaginary Dobbs. This confu
slon Is quite inexplicable and unaccountable to
me, Inasmuch as I am not aware that you have ever
been known by the name of James O. Dobbs, Sr.
The exuberant Individual whom I selected as
counterpart to "the Democratic nigger" was known
to me by name, but for the reasons stated in Tim
EvENiNOTBi.EGRAm of yesterday, 1 thought it best to
suppress his true cognomen. If this were to be done,
why should I not have styled him Dobbs? I was not
aware that there was residing In New Castle a man
by the name of Dobbs, and your letter Btlll permits
me to Indulge In that belief. Suppose I had styled
' him Smith, or Drown, or Jones, or Tompkins, or any
other name which, by its extreme redundancy, has
become public property, to be played upon at will or
whim, what would have been the result? Don't, I
pray you, attempt to encroach npon the copyrighted
role of Fink, Jr., for you will surely come to grief if
vou should attempt It.
In conclusion, penult me to subscribe myself, with
expressions of the highest consideration and regard,
simply
Your obedient servant, , Washten aw,

A Household Ki.ixir Adapted to all Climates.
It would be a happy thing for the world if all the excitants
at present used in tho practice of medicine could be
swept out of existence, and Hostettf.r's Stomach Bit
ters substituted In their place. There is a probability,
too, that this desirable substitution may one day be accom
plished. Certain it is that the OREAT VKOETAliLE TONIO
is gradually displacing them, and that the confidence of
the people in its sanitary and saving properties increases
with every passing year. "Figures that cannot lie" show
this to be the fact. No medicinal preparation enjoys the
like popularity among all classes and conditions in every
sectioiof the country. As an appetizer, a general invigo
rant, a remedy for indigestion, a cure for intermittent
and remittent fevers, a gentle cathartic, a specitio for llat
lency and sour stomach, a gentle diuretic, a nervine, a blood
depurent, a specific for sick headache, a mild anodyne, and
above all, as a PROTECTION AGAINST EPIDEMICS, it islan.
questionably the standard medicine of the whole United
States. In the towns and cities it is literally a HODSKnoLD
STAPLE. Mothers believe in it. They find it a "prosent
help in time of trouble" a safe and pleasant remedy for
the various ailments to wbieh their sex is exclusively sub
ject. Mon believe in it because it refreshes and invigo
rates the body and the mind, and tones botli without
exciting eithor.
Bincier's Sewino Machines
On easiest terms, by
O. V. Davis. Wo. 810 Chesnut street.
JrrwT.LRT, Mr. William W. Cassidy, No. 12 South Second
street, has the largest and most at traotive assortment of
fine Jewelry and Silverware in the city. Purchasers can
rely upon obtaining a roal, pure article furnished at a
price which cannot be equalled. He also has a large stock
of American Western Watches in all varieties and at all
prices. A visit to his store is sure to result in pleasure and
profit. .
;The Parham Bewinq Machine. Foremost in the long
list of sewing machines stands one which we can con
scientiously recommend to the public, and that is the
Parham.
This justly celebrated machine has only been in the
market a brief period of time, but it has already achieved
a popularity second to none in the country. Its tran
scendent merits alone have produced this result, for with
out aid of any other description, it has fairly bounded into
public favor, and been pronounced on all sides the very
perfection of sewing machine mechanism. Orders, far and
wide, are being daily received for it, showing oonolusively
that a really meritorious article, on its own reputation only,
will work its way even to the remotest portions of our
widely extended country. This universal recognition of
the immense superiority of the Parham over its
numerous competitors, is a just return for the
labor bestowed upon the perfecting of
the machine before it was permitted to take its place as a
competitor of the other sewing machines good, bad, and
indifferent in the market. Years of anxions labor and
patient research were bestowed npon it by its inventor,
Mr. Charles Parham, and it was not till be had attained a
point as near perfection as could be that he desisted from ,
his task, and offered the benefit of his matchless invention :
to the public That public has not been slow to uppre I
ciate bis labors, for although the capacity of the I'arbam
manufactory is ample for the tnrning out of from five hun
dred to six hundred machines per week, its facilities, great
they are. will have soon to be largely increased, so ex
tensive is the demand already for the Parham machine.
The Parham possesses many superior features not fonnd
in any other sewing machine, but there are two of its pecu
liarities to which we desire to draw the special at tention
of the public These are the uomltrful eoe irilh iruVA it
runa and its noUctsne of operation. Those who know the
serious derangement to female health that frequently re
sults from hard running and lubor-exocting machines, will
see In the Introduction of the Parham A positive bless
ing to users of sewing machines; while the comparative
quiet which characterizes its working will equally com
mend it to all members of the households in which its
pleasing ministrations are made available. It is, also, ele
gant in style and finish ; exceedingly simple in construc
tion ; perfectly free and untrammelled in all its move
ments, and maket perfect work on entry deneription of ma
terial.
In short, it is, as we have said, the very perfection of
sewing machine mechanism, and aa such it is offered to
the publio with the full consciousness that it will be found
all and even more than it is represented. An inspection of
it at the salesrooms of the Parham Sewing Mashine Com
pany, No. 704 Chesnut street, will develop the truth of all
that is said of it in this article, and satisfy the most
skeptical that it is as far ahead of all its competitors as
the first sewing machine invented was ahead of the simple
needle in the hands of the patient toiler so pathetlcully
depicted by Hood in his matchless "Song of the Shirt."
