lAn Incident ti the Snlithrlittre Rooms.
Among -the soldiers; who arrit' edin this city,
on Thursday, on thetioon trail:l*o . m the east,
I
was Dr. Wm. Forrester, Surgeon of the sth
Kentucky Cavalry, who has jest been re
leased from Libby prison. On the same train
was. Mr. J. T. Sample, news dealer, of Alle
gheny, who had a very interesting converse
lion with tho doctor, and who, by the way,
corroborates the statements relative to the
horrible sufferinge of our prisoners at Rich
mond. On their arrival bare, the doctor,
being a stranger, desired to know where he
could get • comfortable dinner, and was di
rected to the Continental. On his way thither
ho was accosted by a gentleman and conduct
ed to the dinning rooms of the Subsistence
Committee, where he found.s, neat table, well
supplied with warm, desirable victuals, and
attended by those most invaluable servants,
neat and tidy ladies. The doctor actually
-thought HIS he Was in a first eless restau
rant, and when hehimi eaten he very naturally
askedwhat the bill eras. The lady addressed
pleasantly informed him that there was no
charge,aid at his raciest ails gave
him a brief account of the work which the
Committee had been performing. No one can
hotter appreciate these kindly offices, in be
half of our brave soldiers, than the returned
prisoner, fresh from the scenes of Southern
cruelty and barbarity, and Dr. Forrester could
scarcely find words to express the gratitude
which he experienced. He bid the ladies God
speed in thaw noble work, and before leaving
contributed a bandsie sum of money to the
institution, together with a photograph of
the Libby Prison.

chines aro not the thing for family sewing.
Read the following
One prominent defect of the double thread
loop stitch is the waste of thread in fordzing
It. Each yard of seam requires on an aver
age. 7y s yards of thread, or twice and one-half
the amount required by the ' , lock stitch." An
estimate may be easily made of the compar
ative expense of using the two. In the skirt
manufactory of Messrs. Douglass & Sherwood,
a day's work of ten hours for one person is
estimated at 1,000 yards of straight seam, ton
stitches to the inch, with the loek-stich ma
chines, which they use ; this length of seam
roquire&tbree thousand yards of cotton thread,
and with the double thread chain or knitting
stitch machine, 7,500 yards would
_,lOl required.
The cost rif. 3 ,000 yards of cotton thread woald
be $1,35 at wholesale,and the cost of 7,508
yards would be $9,10, making a difference of
81,85 a day in this item alone or more than
$5,000 a yeas; with costlier thread or silk (at
present prism at $ll per pound), the difference
would be much greater. In shirt and collar
manufacture, where the stitch is finer, and less
length of seam Is sewed, the difference per
day is only about 75 cents in favor of the lock
stitch machines. In a manufactory like that
of Winchester & Davies ' where ono hundred
and sixty o nsf these ueldnea are used, the
saving is $l2O per day. Tho result is that the
chain or knitting-h R& is not used on this
work. In quilting, where silk is used, the
difference eaeh. day would amount to more
than two dollars and twenty-five cents on
each mahine.—Scientific American.

FROM WASHINGTON.
Special Dispatch to the Pittsburgh Oseette
Womusowa Croy, Doe. 4, 1883
The eontest for the Speakerehip it practi
cally ended. Washburn's friends eel) tt up ,
and the only question that remains is whether
.Washburn will withdraw before tho caucus is
held,-or wait till after an informal ballot. If
a ballot is had at all, Colfax will have not lets
than Eighty-six of a vote, aid at the very out
side Washburn cannot have twenty. The
matter will end, of course, in a nomlnation
by acclamation.
Members are conking in rapidly to the Ad
ministration caucus of Saturday night, which
is called in this morning's papers. It is cer
tain that it will be fully attdaded. The Date
°erotic caucus is called for the same night.
The lowa. delegation -met to-night and re.
solved to east their six votes solid for Colfax,
for Speaker, and Buffington, of Massaehu
setts, for Clerk. Pennsylvania has resolved
to coat her twelve votes for Colfax and
McPherson. Michigan, California, and Min
nesota, have resolved unanimously for Colfax,
but have made no committals for clerks. The
Kentucky delegation is in session to-night.
Pour members are for Brutes Clay; Clay
Smith, Lucien ;Anderson and Wm. H. Ran
dall :will go into the Administration caucus
and vote for Colfax. An effort was made to
make Mallory a candidate for Speaker, bat Jt
signally failed. Winter Davis goes - into cau
cus : so do all the Missouri radicals, other
Maryland radicals, the Delaware member,
and, in a word, all the Border State men but
admitted copperhead-5 and their allies.

Members who bare not procured certificates
In due form, should not lose a moment in get

negligence on this point lies tho only possibil

For the clerkship the contest waxes warm.
and it is idle to attempt to predict the results
between McPherson and Pessenden.

The President's Mcsrage Is not yet com

None of thwDepartment,reporta rirelihely to

The Democratic caucus to-night was little,
beyond a social re-union. About sixty were
present. King, of Missouri, presiding. Ko
border State men, excepting acknowledged
Copperheads, were with them.
DALE OF ABANDONED LANDS
The peremptory sale of abandoned lands
is to be ordered in the States of 'Virginia,
South Carolina, Tennessee and Florida.
Tho Baltimore emancipationists are urging
the appointment of Dorn Piatt to command
that department, or else the appointment of
some Major General to whom Dora Platt shall
be °lbis staff. Blair is doing all he can to
defeat either plan.

Gon. Meade's last movement has already
raised a clamor for his removal in and out of
the army. Alter the President has finished
his mosaage the question will be considered,
and if he should be removed, no one now ap

The approximate estimates for the Depart

legal tender notes will probably soon follow

legal tender notes, should the neeostity of the

this quarter continues to be guided by its
present counsel in the field, it is now clear
that it will tail to command public confidence.
Though the movement amounted only to a
reconnoissance in force, its purpose was cer
tainly to give Lee battle whenever found.
There can be no mistake in this fact, though
it is now thought to be denied. We know
farther that the season for active operations,
under active commanders, in this section, has
not slated, as is being represented by more or
'leas newspapers. So if Lee, relying upon a
oontinuance of the chronic hesitancy that has
affected the counsel of tien. Meade, ventures
to reinforce Longetreot considerably from his
own army, which be has yet time, at least, to
attempt, the Government wiil promptly seek
to make him-pay dear for his temerity; as ear
