Upon iho occurrences of the present yenr
depend great results. The Presidential elec
tion will determine whether the people are
content to live longer under the coutrol of n
party of fraud and corruption, or whether
they detlro an honest government. It will
rIjo determine whether the unwritten law ol
the laiul.cttablNhed by Washington and ob
served by Ms successors to the present day,
ahnll be effaced from tho sacred tablets ol
traditional custom, and a third presidential
term Inaugurated. Thli would be hut the
first step towards an empire, and It it shall
bo permitted, we may within n few years,
bid farewell to our republican form of Gov
ernment. To avert such a dire calamity Is the pres
ent duty and mission of the Democracy. If
wise counsel and concerted action shall pre
vail, tho election of the Democratic candid
ate for tho Presidency is Inevitable, whether
ho be Bayard, Seymour, or Tilden.
But beforo victory can perch upon our
banners, there must be changes in several
respects. The great obstacle to our success
is Internal dUsenslous. In New York we
have the Kelly-Tilden light. In Pennsyl
vania Wallace and IUndall cannot agree,in
Philadelphia Bill McMullin leads a factious
crowd, ard so It is In other states. Personal
animosities are the springs of action rather
than love of principle, and sell aggrandize
ment tak( the place of party success. In
soma Instances democrats who have not stuck
closely to tho party ticket are denominated
"bolters," and threatened with being read
out of the party for kicking over the traces.
On the other hand these so-called "bolters"
are-rcady and willing to come back Into the
fold only when they are tickled a little bj
being named for an office. We would sug
gest that conciliation rather than punish
ment is the proper treatment in the first in
stance and in the second that party principle
Is sufficient to hold any true democrat with
in the party lines, without being rewarded
by a party nomination,
All these things must be overlooked and
droppedjoutof sight if we would bold the fort
All men do not think alike, and as free will
agents all have the right to do as their con
sciences dictate, and if some are led to vote
against what they consider a bad nomination
tbey ought not to be driven from the party
because of this one act ; but they have nn
right to expect to be coaxed back by offers
and influence.
In union there Is strength ; in division
weakness. Let us all cast aside any petty
personal animoslties,and putting our should
ers to the wheel, all work for one great end,
the trumphant establishment and perpetua
tion of the principles of Democracy.
WASHINGTON LETl'ER.
Washington, 1) C. Feb. 17th 1SS0-
One of the historical eras of the govern
ment's financial experience is at band. Tbe
three and one half percent, refunding bund
has been drawn, the immediate words ol
preparation being confided to Congressman
Fryer, ol Maine, and will be presented to
the House for action. The first section au
thorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to
issuo four hundred million dollars in bonds'
bearing interest at the the rate of three and
one half per. cent per annum, to be redeem
able after twenty years, and payable after
forty years ; also to issue two hundred mil
lion certificates, bearing interest at the rate
of fourpercent. per annum, payable in one
two, three, four, and five years after date
of issue,at the rate of foity million per year
the same to bo issued in such denominations
as shall be deemed advisable by tbe Secre
tary of the Treasury, who authorized and
directed with them, to replace all four and
six per cent bonds now outstanding. Tbe
second section does not materially change
existing laws, and relates to funding opera
tions. The third section requires national
Banks chartered after tho passage of tbe
act to place these new three and one halt
per cent, bonds on deposit with the treasury
to seenre their circulation.
A condition of the country which enables
us to sell a bond of this character marks an
important point in our history. That con
dition was produced chietly by tbe wonder
ful crops of the last few years, but, every
one will admit, in partly the check given
to the Republican extravagance by the Dem
ocrats who first controlled tbe House of
Representatives in 1874.
The two topics of conversation here, in
the absence of business in Congreas.are.first
the Presidential candidate question as ap
plied to the Republican case, and the samo
relating to the Democracy. I mention the
lie publicans first because the fight Is livelier
among them. It is admitted that tbe three
men who have a chance for the Republican
nomination, are Grant, Blaine, and Sher
man, No one else is talked of here, and I
give their names in tbe order of the gener
ally concvived idea of their prospects. It
may be proper to leave Sherman out entire
ly, for his "boom" so far, is engineered
wholly by Treasury i flicals and personal
friends, and Is of that character which never
has bad success.
Among Democrats there is certainly a
gain in Sherman stock within tbe last month
or two.
With Greenbackers General Butler has at
present the first place.
These Indications I gather f rom personal
converge with men belonging iu all sections
of the country and from letters received
hers.
It is but fair.lo say in this correspondence
in which ;somo prominence has been given
against Senator Infolds, that tho Senate
Election committee Is unanimously of opin
ion that the charge against tbe Senator of
bribery have not been proven, and reccom-
mend their dismissal.

Wn.Kns llAnnn, Pa , Feb. 11, 18S0.
To tho Newspaper Kdltors of tho United
States nf America :
Gentlemen .
In presence of tho terrlblo emergency of
famine now passing upon the Irish people,
theconlulon existing with regard to the
various Belief Committers in Ireland, we
deem It right to lose not a moment In plac
ing before the American people the attitude
numed by tis towards these Committees.
Wo ask you with your usual courtesy to ena
ble Us to do this throuffh vourcolnmns.
Up to the present, four separate Belief
Associations have appealed to this coun
try.
We wilt refer to these In the order of the
dates of their appeals.
Tho first call fur succor was mado by Us on
our landing In America on the second of Jan
uary. Since tl.en over seventy thousand dob
lars have been entrusted to us,muchof which
has been already forwarded and distributed
amongst llio perhbiug people of the West,
and the remainder Is on lis way. We may
bo permitted to mention, as a matter of in
terest, that our orgsnizatlon was tbe first on
Christmas Kvc, to distribute American help
totwenty.five starving districts on the Wes
tern Coast.
Ours also Is tho only association which is
enabled, through its intimate local conmc
tlon with the distressed districts, to dis
tribute relief promptly and without cot,
and we guarantee that all funds entrusted to
us for that purpose will be used solely for
relief, and without tbe deduction of a sing
le dollar for any other purpose or expense
whatever.
Following closely upon our appeal, came
that of the Duchesi of Marlborough, the
wife of the Lord-I.ieutcnantof Ireland.
Now in this matter we cannot separate
husband from wife, and It must bo borne in
mind that the Duke of Marlborough is the
chief executive officer of hrr Majesty's
Government in Ireland, and is responsible
for all its nets, Hence,wefind the real bead
of this relief committee actually engaged in
sending soldiers to bayonet the women and
children whom he pretends to relieve, in
driving them from their poor homes out in
to tho snow to perish of cold and hunger
and in seizing upon what little provision
they may have left, In order partially to sat
isfy tho exorbitaut demands of the landlord
for rent.
Information has also reached us from
many reliable sources, both clerical and lay,
of tbe biased and partial way in which the
Marlborough relief funds are administered ;
and complaints are numerous that the chari
ty sent from America is being used as a po
litical engine to assist the landlords in driv
ing the people from their homes.
The Dublin Mansion House Committee
vas tho third to appeal to this country. Up
on the publication hereofthe names of those
composing that body, we felt it our duty to
point nut that its Dublin management was
controled by persons interested in the main
tenance of the landlord system ; that sever
al of them had been guilty of eviction atro
cities, and that the hands of others were
reeking with the blood of the Connemara
women butchered within the last few weeks
in a happily ineffectual attempt to evict the
Western peasantry from their cottages.
We showed that a relief committc formed
in such a way could not have-the confidence
or respect of the Irish people, and that it
was cruel to force the starving to apply for
their daily bread to the very- men against
whom they are maintaining an unequal con
test for the land of their country.
It is not to be expected that any people
should continue to struggle for their rights
against a powerful and privileged class, if
they are placed in the position of being
obliged to beg for charity from the class who
are opposing them.
It is, moreover, a remarkable fact that this
landlord and government class, while it does
nothing to relieve the distress itself, and ob
structs all our attempts to do so, is not
ashamed to appeal to you and to other coun
tries to do the work whicb, but for them,
would have been done at home.
We, however, notwithstanding all tbls.ex
pressed our willingness to withdraw opposi
tion to the further progress of the Mansion
House Committee, provided the names of
the most noted exterminators and govern'
ment officials were removed from it, and re
placed by gentlemen possessing the confe
dene of our people, but we regret to say that
up to this moment no notice has been taken
of our proposition.
Tbe latest Belief Fund established has
been that of the New York Jferald. This
journal has been noted for its advecacy of
the landlord side In tbe struggle now going
on in Ireland, while it is also fair to say that
some of the information sent by its special
correspondents, ot tho condition of the Irish
tenantry, ias been of considerable impor
tance in informing tbe American public of
tbe position of affairs there.
We do not desire to assume an unfriendly
position towards this journal, as we are
aware that its resources for obtaining suh
scriptions are so widespread that the result
of its efforts, if directed and distributed
through proper channels, may be of great
advantage to tne suffering peoplo of Ire
land. But, so far, appearances indicate that the
Herald will bo guided, in its selection of the
channels for distributing its funds, by that
landlord bias which has so unhappily man
ifested Itself hitherto in the direction of the
policy of that journal.
Before, then, tbe people of this country
entrust their money to the Jferald fund, we
think they are entitled to ask what agency
is to be chosen to distribute it. Up to the
present we have been given no information
on this vital point, and if the Herald wishes
to avoid the imputation that it has joined
with the Marlborough and Mansion House
Committees in their conspiracy to divert the
charity of America into landlord hands, it
will at once publish tbe names of a com
mittee calculated to command the confidence
of those who are tu be relieved.
For our part, if tbe Jferald selects a com
mittee in which the Irish people can place
confidence, it shall have our warmest sup
port and best wishes for its success. If on
the other hand, It allies Itself with the at
tempts of the Marlborough and Mansion
House Committees, to use American charity-
as a means of deleating the tenantry of Ire
laud in the struggle now being made to ob
tain their rights, we shall snaro no effort to
enlighten the public as to the true nature of
this attempt.
Respectfully,
Chables S. I'ahnei.l,
John DILLON.
-Leadville is a place of strong contrasts.
The characteristics of a new mining town
are seen there yet j gambling hells and bar
rooms are more numerous than in any other
places of business, the pistol and knife aro
in common use, highwaymen rob the stages
close by, aud desperato adventures abound ;
but opposed to these things is a btrong de
sire for law and order, schools and churches
are being established, and it is thought that
the civilization ot Leadvllle will soon be ac
complished.
(leorge Wnslilntons Declination. I
Everybody is familiar with the fact that
Washington declined n rc-elcctlon toward
the clove nf his second administration, nnd
the passages of his famous farewell nddrcss
which bear upon this point have been wide
ly quoted the last few weeks. Hut no one
seems to have resiled n not less interest
ing fact, which still farther emphasizes the
contrast between Washington aud Grant In
their treatment of this Issue. John Adams
had not been long In the Prefidency before
the 1'i-der.illst party, which bad elected
him became greatly disorganized, and u
strong clement were out-sponeu ngnlnst his
having a second term, In this condition
of affairs not n few Federalists Insisted
that Washington must except another elec
tion to the Presidency. Guv Jonathan
Trumbull, of Connecticut, was one of the
molt urgent in advising this policy. In
June, 1790, Trumbull wrote Washington n
letter on the subject, In which he present
ed tbe consideration In favor of this
scheme.
Washington's reply Is one of tho best
communication's nn political subjects which
lie over wrote. OJdly enough, It does not
appear in Spirts elaborate biography.
Tbe letter Is dated at Mount Vernon, July
21st 1799, aud, after some Introductory re
maiks, proceeds as follows :
"It would be n matter o( sore regret to
me If I could bclievo that a srlous thought
was turned toward me as his (Mr. Adam's)
ncces'or, not only as it respects my ardent
wishes to pass through tho vale of lite in
retirement, undisturbed in the remnant of
the days I have to sojourn here, unless
called upon to defend my country (which
every citizen is bound to do), but on pub
lic ground also ; for although I have abun
dant cauo to be thanklul for the good
health with which I am blrssed, yet I nui
not insensible to my declination in other
respects. It woul l be criminal, therefore,
in me, although it should be tbe wish of
my countrymen, and I could be elected, to
accept an nilice under this conviction, which
another would discharge with mote ability;
and this, ton, at a time when I am thor
oughly convinced I should uot draw a sin
gle vote from tho anti-Federal side, ai.d, o
course, should stand upon no other ground
than an other Federal character well sup
ported : and when I should become a m.irk
for the sballs of envenomed malice and tbe
basest calumny to fire at; when I should
be charged not only with irresolution, but
with cmcealed ambition, which waits only
n-i occn-ion to blaze out aud, in short,
with dotage and imbecility. All this', I
grant, ought ,o belike dust iu thi bal.iuce
when put in competition with a great pub
lic good, when the accomplishment ot it is
apparent. But, as no problem is belter
defined iu my mind tbau that principle, uot
men, Is now and will be the object of con
vention, and that I could not obtain a soli
tary ote from that parly ; that any other
resectable Feberal character would receive
tame Miflcragcs that J should ; that at my
time of life (verging toward three score
aud ten ) I should expose myself, without
rendering any essential service to my coun
try or answering the end contemplated;
prudence on my part must arrest any at
tempt of the well meant, but mistaken,
views ot my Iriends to introduce meagain
into tho chair of government."
Washington's death a few months later
put an ind to all talk of a third term, but
tbe tone of this letter leaves no room to
doubt that in any event be would have re
slsttd all attemps to make him again a can
didate. The Father of his Country did not
consider it above his dignity to frankly an
swer tbe letters of the people who address
ed him upon such n subject, nor was he
disposed to wait nnd bee whether he might
be elected before declaring himself A
greater contrast could hardly be imagined
than that between Washington's altitude
on the third-term question a year before
the election of 1S00 and that ol Grant on
the same issue eighty years later.

1 ho Invention nf soiim method by w hlch tho ordinary washing for families, hotels, anil public Institutions
could bo sucees'fiilly pel formed VNltnout the exhausting labor and tne ruinous vear and tear of garments
Involved In Hie old method of the wash board, and the later procets of pounding, squeezing, nnif dashing
f'e life out onhe fabrics, has long been a public desideratum ; and Impressed with the great necessity
that exl't-'d tor a simple) machine that would ct anse soiled linen without the destructive agency of fric
tion, and Willi the lea-t possible physical exertion, we were li d to Invent tho -Model Washer.
It was of vital Importance that Ui method Invoked should be ot the simplest nature, In enter Hist It
might be siieres-fiillf employed by tho most unskilled persons, because ollierwlso Its usefulness must bo
neeissarily limited.
And It was, at the simo time, essential to the popularity ot such an Invention that It should bo sold nt a
prl.'c that Mould Maco It within II19 reach of every rainlly In the land.
It arfords usslneere gratification to bo ablo toannouneo that wo havo succeeded In placing In tlis market

crfectlvo that It Is a pleasuiu lo use It.
AV1IAT IT IS.
The Model Waher Is a small portable machine, weighing about sit pounds, nnd can bo used In any ordi
nary funlly wash boiler. It Is composed wholly of galvanized Iron, zinc and brass, and hence one of Ms
prominent qualities Is durableness i and from the nature of the material entering into Its construe tlon,and
the simplicity of Its mchnnlsm It Is Impossible tn get It out of order uv use. In form It Isa circular base,
wlllindlimeterof 7 Inches, nnd a depth oils, inches. In tho centre of this base Is inserted ft horizontal
tube, called tho discharge pipe, which is 14 Inches high, Inches In diamtter, and capable, when In full
operation or Ihrowlngout 15 gallonsot water per mlouto. Within the basn. which Is hollow, u I'cateda

It Is not m well understood as It should be, that tho energetic action ot boiling water containing a small

colton nn.itlneii goods. Il.li is long been erroneously assumed that nothing short of violent ruction pro.
duced by haul rubbing In a strong solution ot alkali was capable ot cleansing cotton rpjth. The fact Is
that the cleansing pnice.ss consists, not In rubbing the goods, but In forcing the water repeatedly thiotigu

WHAT AUKNTS SAY.
Wo have received over eight hundred applications
for agencies In tlireo months. Somei of our agents
are having unprecedented success. Asjet wehave

the answer tney mvn our agents. We want an

our agent In Hunterdon county. X. J., ordered a
sample1 washer In December, In less than one week
ho sent us an order Tor rorty washers: our other
agents nro doing Just ns well, our esperlence has
luen, with scarce au exception, that wherever wo
have sent a sample washer wo havo secured an
agent. We can show several hundred unsolicited
testimonials.
Ilietoliovvingarconlyafowof tho many letters
we have leeched I
One our Agents writes :
"Shtpmo a once two dozen washers. 1 enclose
money order for amount. It Is tho best thing 1 ever
sold. I have called on those that I sold to a no k
ago, and tney say Ihey would not part, with it for
An Agent Writes :
"I have madoapractlsoof canvassing every Fall
nnd Winter. I never had an article that seemed to
glvo so much satisfaction.
"I'leaso send me, at once 15 .Model Washers. Tho
dozen 1 bought last month I sold to my neighbors,
and 1 ninnuw going to commence canvassing tho
town."
The following- letter, from n Farmer
in Pennsylvania, speaks for itself:
"Now mat 1 have got my Min.m 'r work all done,
lam prepared to give your business ft thorough
t rial, 'llio Washer 1 ordered for inj self gives perfect
satisfaction i three of my neighbors have ordered
f nun me already, nnd I think 1 can sell at least one
hundredln this vicinity.
Another writes:
"I have canvassed for booksduring tho past threo
years, but I hav e mado more money selling your
Washers than I ever made In too bxik business.',
Farmers and others, w ho havo plenty of time on
their hands durleg tho winter months, can earn ut
least (HO per week selling tho machines. It is no
Humbug, but something every body wants, and will
buy.
