From Our Own Corretpondrnt.
New York, Sept. 2, 1370.
Retnrnlnc t Town.
The rapidity with which people who, for the
last three months, have been out of town, are
now suddenly returning, is almost the only local
novelty worth mentioning. Just at present the
city is enjoying a lull preparatory to the begin
ning of the fall and winter campaign. It is not
yet full enough of people to justify the statement
that the regular season has commenced the sea
son pf churches and theatres, of balls
and parties, and of that social inter
change of visit and gossip that
announce that the harvest is past and the sum
mer 1b ended. As a habitual rider up and down
la the Broadway stages, however, I can aver
that one of the signs of returning citizens is
evident in the increased number of portly and
Well-dressed gentlemen who appear almost
every morning in almost the eelf-samo seats, at
almost the same moment, and who Invariably
display the well-known and woll-worn 6cason
ticket. That may be considered a very good
criterion. v
. The "Free Preaa"
is'the name of the new evening newspaper that
has appeared In this city. It is a targe two-cent
newspaper, and its principal features are that it
pitches into the Herald, gives out mysterious
Lints as to Mrs. Vreeland and certain relations
which it intimates the younger Bennett held
with her, and makes war against Tammany,
the "ring," and everything else by opposing
which notoriety is to be gained. Its "pitchmgs"
Into the Herald are a beautiful In
stance of editorial rhetoric when the
epigot of the passions is turned on and all the
mean little animosities are allowed full flow.
The revenge which the Herald takesfls character
istic and amusing. It maintains a dead silence.
No Bting can provoke it into shaking its mane
and showing fight. However true the shafts
may come home it will not advertise its adver
sary by condescending to take notice of it.
Theodore Pnrkerlim.
It may seem strange that in so large a city
as New York there should be so few churches
that preach the principles advocated by that
rare religious genius and great man, Theodore
Parker. Whatever the sectarian adversaries
of that woiiderful man may say, I maintain that
he was the greatest religious genius of the age,
and that his teachings are purer, loftier, sub
limer, and more fitted to lead the world aright
than those of any other teacher of the present
century. His is not the religion of creeds,
books, cburohes, or forms. It is a Christianity
derived directly from Jesus Christ, with all the
theological impurities that have collected
there during the lapse of ages squeezed
deliberately out. The religion which he
Bought to establish, and which has its holy
followers in Boston and other citlos of New
England, but which has comparatively few fol
lowers elsewhere, was the religion of nature and
the religion of love. Still, you will find few
Theodore Parkerites in New York at the pre
sent day. There are one or two Unitarian
churches and one or two Universalist churches,
but Theodore Parker was neither a Unitarian
merely nor a Universali6t merely, so that
none of those churches actually represents his
thought. Indeed, I do not believe that in all
New York there is a single church the preacher
of which can with truth be said to be a tlisciple
of that great religious genius.
Alias Netta'a Work.
Miss Netta's work in securing the co-operation
of the saleswomen in New York in obtaining
an early-closing movement among the stores in
this city where women are employed, does not
meet with as much success as its importance
demands. The Thursday night meetings at
Plympton Hall are very slimly attended, the
secret of the slimncss being that many sales
women are afraid to attend lest they should lose
their places in consequence. Many of the
btooier-hearted of the employers have threat
ened with immediate dismissal all who continue
to lend their countenance to the early-closing
movement. Consequently the" society
holds a strict watch ' over all
such male applicants as manifest
a desire to attend the meeting. No males
are admitted, unless they give very good proof
that they belong either to the press or to the
MaleClorks'Early-closingAssociation. Employeis
have been detected in the miserable business
of Bending spies to watch and report proceed
ings and to give the names of such saleswomen
as attend. Asmany of these saleswomen
have poor relations dependent upon them,
they cannot afford to lose even the wretchedly
paying situations that they at present hold.
Hence the meetings continue to be very ill
attended, and the aspect of affairs Is not as
encouraging as it might be. The Workiugmen's
Association, however, are soon going to give a
picnic. Mies Netta has been asked to attend
and to deliver a lecture on the wants and woes
of the class of women whom she represents.
She has consented, and it is expected that she
will make some extremely thrilling and useful
revelations. Ali Baba.

would be wrong for any lady or gentleman to
attempt to purchase clothing tot their sons or them

G ROVER A BAKER.
Tills firm name Is as familiar as a household word
to the utmost limits of civilisation, as representing
the best Sewing Machine In the world. The peace
ful victory which the Grovcr Baker 8ewing Ma
chine Company have achieved over all competitors
In this Important field is vastly more glorious than
those which are now being achieved on the bloody
fields of France. The points of excellence in which
the Grover Baker are superior to all other sewing
machines in use are numerous and striking, among
which we may name the following:.
Beauty and elasticity of stitch.
Perfection and simplicity of machinery.
Using both threads directly from the spools.
No fastening of Beams by hand and no waste of
thread. -
Vide range of application without change of ad
justment. The scam retains its beauty and firmness after
washing and ironing.
Besides doing all kinds of work done by other
sewing machines, these machines execute the most
bcantlfnl and permanent embroidery and ornamen
tal work.
The activity at the Philadelphia branch of this
enormous concern, No. 730 Chesnut street (of which
our esteemed townsman, George W. Eddy, Esq., Is
the accomplished and energetic manager), has con
tinued without interruption throughout the summer,
and the Indications are that the autumn and winter
sales of Grover ft Baker sewing machines will
largely exceed those of any former season.
