From Washington
EbbkroVoildence of The Press.l
The President returned this morning, :lc'
eording to promise, in the steamboat Ade
laide, in fine health and spirits. Ile saw his
old friend and associate in Congress, Weidea
N. Edwards, and shook hands with a great
many Southern sovereigns. lie has had a
good time to himself. The question now is,
whether, coming back so buoyant, he will
order the guillotine to be freshly sharpened,
or whether he will discard that instrument
for wiser counsels, leaving the petty politics
of patronage for the graver duties that await
his action.
The friends of Charles James Faulkner, of
the Martinsburg district, Virginia, boldly
allege that he would have been elected but
for• the load he was compelled to carry in
supporting the policy of Mr. Buchanan's Ad
ministration.
I forgot to say to you that while General
Bridgens, of Lock Haven, Clinton county, of
your State, was in this city protesting against
the appointment of Mr. Quiggle as consul to
Antwerp, he let out a fact which bears
somewhat upon the future of Pennsylvania
politics. After he had told Mr. Buchanan
that the appointment alluded to was a most
unfortunate one, the President responded by
stating that he desired to be let alone—that
he was now an old man, who would soon be out
of office and forgotten; but that he, General
Bridgens, would render him, J. 8.,
an essen
tial service, by helping to crush Governor
Packer—a point which the President earn
estly declared he and his friends had fully
determined unon—and that Bridgens started
home resolved, after having had this pro
gramme submitted to him, to take off his
coat, and assist in putting down your inde
pendent and high toned Governor. This, be
well assured, is the fixed purpose of the Ad
ministration here. A number of small ed
itors of small country papers, in your State,
have been located in Washington, and are
sending home weekly calumnies upon Gover
nor Packer, prepared by order of Judge
Black and the President, while those who
are connected with persons holding office in
this city, in your State, and elsewhere, who
own or control newspapers, are commanded
to do the same thing on pain of ostracism.
This is the secret of the violent course of cer
tain Administration papers in Franklin,
Westmoreland, Mifflin, Northampton, Ches
ter, Adams, Blair, Fayette, Venango, Erie,
Bucks, Luzerne, Burks, &e. In vain is Mr.
Buchanan told that Governor Packer's
friends must wield an immense influence in
1860. The policy has been laid down, and
will be adhered to at every hazzard. Look,
for instance, at the vast interests to be jeop
arded by this assault upon the fearless Exec
utive of a sovereign State. In May of 1860
you will have to elect, as I understand, the
Mayor and Councils of Philadelphia—a city
which in itself polls more votes than a num
ber of the States of this Union—and in Octo
ber of 1860 your electors will be called upon
to choose a Governor, State officers, a Legisla
ture who is to elect a United States Senator
in the place of the facile Bigler, and twenty
five members of the National House of Rep
resentatives I In November of the same
year, the Presidential election will come off,
upon the result of which will depend the se
lection of a new Cabinet and the distribution
of eighty or a hundred millions of patronage.
All these vast interests are to be perilled that
Governor Packer's head may be handed over
on a trencher to Kilns. James—and that such
men as yourself may read out of the Dem
ocratic party, with all who have not fallen
down and - worshipped his worse than Aus
trian despotism I You must prepare for this
state of things. The war upon Judge Doug
las shows that the Administration is capable
of any outrage. It is true, there is a remedy
—one that you should wield with your uni
ted energies—and that is, to exhibit to the
men who have undertaken this work of ruin,
your determination to resist to the uttermost
their tyranny, no matter what shape it may
assume. If you should succeed in success
fully arresting this tyranny, you will save the
Democratic party from a long series of defeats
and place it upon an enduring foundation.—
God prosper the right I
The cry of adherence to regular nomina
tions is hems- raised at Washington, by the
dependants of the Crown, in advance of the
Charleston Convention. They feel confident
that that body will be completely in their
hands. Although they refused to support
the regular nominees in Illinois, standing as
those nominees did upon the old-fashioned
Democratic platform; yet, whenever they can
force their creatures upon Democratic tickets,
they will insist upon usages as earnestly as
they violate themselves, whenever circum
stances demand. When John A. Gamble
was nominated for Canal Commissioner, for
your State, in 1849, you will remember that
Mr. Buchanan, at Bedford Springs, de
nounced him, and said he ought to be defeat
ed, because the Pittsburg Convention, which
made him a candidate, adopted a resolution
under the auspices of Col. W. Black, now
Governor of Nebraska, indirectly approving
the Wilmot proviso. It is equally certain,
also, that in 1851 Mr. Buchanan became ex
ceedingly indignant because Mr.Bigler would
not take part in the local fights of Lancaster
county, and publicly denounced him for it,
although Bigler was then the regular Demo
cratic candidate for Governor.
GRASSILOPPERS.—The National Defender,
Montgomery county, Pa., says :
These insects have made their appear
ance an Plymouth township. They are ex
tremely small, but destroy so much grass
that it is fehred that many of the farmers
will be compelled to dispose of some of
their cattle. The Bucks County Intelligencer,
in speaking of their appearance in that
county, says :—We believe it is not general
ly understood how the grasshoppers are prop
agated, and that there is much diversity of
opinion that the crop of grasshoppers last
year deposited eggs in the earth, which,
from exposure to the sun and light, have
produced the grasshoppers that have ap
peared. this season. A very considerable
number of them must also have survived the
Winter, for quantities of them can be found
in many of the fields. These are generally
quite large, with transparent and expanded
bodies. Those who have taken the trouble
to dissect the bodies of some of these, find
that each one contains an astonishing num
ber of eggs—probably thousands; so that each
one of these insects is invested with the pow
er of transmitting its species. These are
questions for the solution of some one posted
up in natural. history.
There is truly cause for alarm in regard to
the continued ravages of the grasshoppers.—
The district of country visited by them last
season, now gives evidence of their destruc
tive powers. The pasture fields are blighted,
and in many places look as if a fire had
swept over them. The grass is nearly ruined,
and another season of grasshoppers will
fall heavily upon many farmers. We hope
that the fears entertained by many in re
gard to this subject will not be realized.

GROVER & BAKER'S CELEBRA
TED FAMILY SEWING MACIIINES.
New Wes—Prices from, $5O to $125. Extra
Charge of $5 for Hemmers.
495 Broadway,
730 Chestnut street,
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they Hem,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
seam by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family sewing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of 'management,
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special adjustment.
As evidence cf the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GRoVER BAKER SEWING MACHINE COMPANY
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following
TESTIMONIALS
4 ' Having had one of Grover & Baker's Machines in my
family for nearly a year and a-half, I take pleasure in
commending it as every way reliable for the purpose for
which it is designed—Family Sewing."—Mrs. Joshua
Leavitt, wife of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of N. Y. Indepen
dent. . .
"I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine,
which has been in my family for many months. It has
always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and
is easily adapted to every variety of family sewing, by
simply changing the spools of thread."--Mrs. Elizabeth
Strickland, leife of Rev. pr. Strickland, Editor of N. Y.
Christian Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
ease with which it is - managed, as well as the strength and
durability of the seam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family sowing."—Mrs. E.
B. Spooner, wife of the Editor of Brooklyn Star.
" I have used a GROVER & BAKER Sewing Machine for
two years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of flint
ily sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth. Garments have
been worn out without the giving way of a stitch. The
Machine is easily kept, in order, and easily used."_ 4 ll rs .
A. B. Whipple, ufe. of Rev. Geo. lVhirr,': ! , ;c m , y or k,
"Four Sewing Machine Ins been in use in my family
the past two years, and the ladies request me to give you
their testimonials to its perfect adaptedness, as well as la
bor-saving qualities in the performance of family and
household sewing."—Robert Boorman, Neu , York.
"For several months we have used Grover & Baker's
Sewing Machine, and have come to the conclusion that ev
ery lady who desires her sewing beautifully and quickly
done, would be most fortunate in possessing one of these
reliable and indefatigable 'iron needle-women,' whose com
bined qualities of beauty, strength and simplicity, are in
valuable."—.T. 11 7 : Norris, daughter of Gen. Geo. Norris,
Editor of the home Journal.
.Extract of a letter from Tnos. It. Ixtvrrr, Esq., an
American gentleman, now resident in Sydney, New South
Wales, dated January 12., 1S58:
"I had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewing done with
one of Grover & Baker's Machines, and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
" If Homer could be called up from his murky Hades, he
would sing, the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever Vitlean's smithy.
He would denounce midnight shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—Pyof.
I take pleasure its saying, that the Grover & Baker
Sewing Machines have more than sustained my expecta
tion. After trying and returning others, I have three of
them in operation in my different places, and, after four
years' trial, have no fault to find."---1. IL Hammond, Sen
ator of South Carolina.
. .
"My wife has had one of Grover & Baker's Family Sew
ing Machines for some time, and I am satisfied it is One of
the best labor-saving machines that has been invented. I
take much pleasure in recommending it to the public."—
J. G. Harrls, Gercrno,. of Tennessee.
"It is a beautiful thing, and puts everybody into an ex
citement of good humor. Were I a Catholic, I should in
sist upon Saints Grover and Baker having an eternal holi
day in commemoration of their good deeds for humanity."
—Cassius M. Ciay.
"I think it by far the best patent in use. This Machine
can be adapted front the finest cambric to the heaviest cat
simere. It sews stronger, faster, and more beautifully
than one can imagine. If mine could not be replaced,
money could not buy it."—Afrs. .7. G.Brown, Nashville, Tenn.
"It is speedy, very neat, and durable in its work; is ea
sily understood and kept in repair. I earnestly recom
mend this Machine to all my acquaintances and others."—
Mrs. M. A. Forrest, Memphis, Tenn.
"We find this Machine to work to our satisfaction, and
with pleasure recommend it to the public, as we believe the
Grover & Baker to be the best Sewing Machine in use."—
Deary Brothers, Allisnnia, Tenn.
"If used exclusively for family purposes, with ordinary
care, I wilt wager they will last one three score years and
ten,' and never get out of fix."—John Eraine, Xashrille,
Tenn.
"I have had your Machine for several weeks, and am
perfectly satisfied that the work it does is the best and most
beautiful that ever was made."—Muggie Aimison, .:Yash
ville., Tcnn.
"I use my Machine upon coats, dressmaking, and fine
linen stitching. and the work is admirable—far better than
the best hand-sewing, or any other machine I have ever
seen."—Lucy B. Thompson, Nashville, Tenn.
" I find the work the strongest and most beautiful I have
ever seen, made either by hand or machine, and regard the
Grover & Baker Machine as one of the greatest blessings to
our sex."—Mrs. Taylor, Nashville, Tenn.
"I have one of Grover & Baker's Sewing Machines in
use in my family, and find it invaluable. I can confidently
recommend it to all persons in want of a machine."—G.
T hompsmt, Nughrille, Tenn.
I take pleasure in certifying to the utility of the Gro
ver & Baker Sewing Machines. I have used one on almost
every description of work for months, and find it much
stronger and better in every respect than work done by
hand."—Mrs. D. IV Wheeler, Nashville, Tenn.
"I would be unwilling to dispose of my Grover & Baker
Machine for a large amount, could I not replace it again at
pleasure."—Mrs. ii C. Secret, Nashville, Tarn.
"Our two machines, purchased from you, do the work
of twenty young ladies. We with pleasure recommend
the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine to be the best in use."
..S7iMnan & Co., 111 - emphis, Tenn.
"The Grover F.: Baker Sewing Machine works admirably.
I think the stitch and work tar superior to that of any
Sewing Machine I ever saw. On fine work, I think the
Machine would be hard to beat."—J. Davie, Memphis,
Tenn.
"I find the Machine easily managed, very durable, and
take pleasure in recommending it to all who wish conve
nience, economy, and pleasure."—Mrs. F. Titus, Memphis,
Tenn.
" The Grover & Baker Sewing Machines have given such
satisfaction that we cheerfully z ecommend them to all who
wish a good and substantial Sewing Machine. It executes
work with much care and speed, and more finely than any
other machine I have seen,"—Mrs. R. B. Mitchell, Mem
phis. Tcnn.
"I am happy to give my testimony in favor of Grover
& Baker's Sewing Machine, and of the perfect satisfaction
