WASHING AND SCOURING PATENTED JUNE 22, DM This important discovery has just been patented by the United States, and it le now confidently recommended to Manufacturers, Housekeepers, and others. It is a labor•sevingpreparation, and costa less than half of any other article known for cleansing purposes.

E tlutt s's WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22,1888. Dickens, the. Render. Frol what, we consider good authority, we hoar that 011AELES DICKENS will certainly re visit this country in the spring. His lecturing, or rather rending tour through the United Kingdom has hitherto been extremely lucra- tive, and ho calculates on equal success here. There is no doubt that he weirld draw very large audiences, in many populous places, for Dimas, whatever his faults, is ono of the greatest writers of his time, and undoubtedly the most genial. Aci an author be has some shortcomings. For example, (like GEORGE GRDIKESIANK, the humorist, who is sometimes libelled by being designated cc caricaturist,") he has almost invariably failed in drawing what WORDSWORTH calls " a perfect wo man, nobly planned." His females are al 'most invariably- failures. When he does give us any thing better than a mere namby pamby,' bread-and-butter-eaptig:Aihis k el, he makes an ,extivagance or her.:XaneY Sykes, and Charlotte, in "Oliver "Twist;" Mrs. Nickleby, and a very few- others stand ont thus 'strongly 'marked.' But; for the most part, his women are dreadfully, common place. • • In this respect Mr. THAOKERAy resembles Boz"—with thii exception, that he does not attemptmuch, whereas DICKENS does. TRACK.: ERA; has but one idea of a female character— at least of a-feminine beau-ideal, and we had her,' first of all, in 'cc Vanity Fair," as immor tal Becky Sharp, that shrewd, knowing, somewhat scampish, self-possessed, farseeing woman of the world, who seems never to have enjoyed any of the amenities of Childhood, but to have been an intrigante almost fromher ThOse sharp features, those' yellow -looks, those grey-green eyes, that quick, feline intiinuating address are, Becky ind'THAOHERAY; who is 'very much in' love:With his own productions,:reibroduces' this - typetwhenever he wants a heroine.' Not so did Sborr, in his immortal Waverley Novels, which, we are delighted to know, are as much read as ever—a tiontid indication of healthy taste this new-blossoming of Scores populari ty is. Ibt so does' BuLwan, whose romances are crowded with fine womanly creations, each admirably individualized. Above all, not so did the multo•minded and immortal Smut- SPEARS. The inability to produce good female characters in - their writings undoubtedly is a drawback to the literary merit of ammo and TnAexzitAv. • We have been asked, more than once, of late, what peculiarity there is in DICKENS'S reading his own compositions, to induce crowds to go and hear-him ? A decided pecu liarity there is, but the greatest inducement, perhaps, is to see the author. Cnearms DICKENS is not a very old man—he will com• plate his forty-seventh year in February—but he is comparatively an old author, having commenced his career and his popularity in 1886. A man who has been for nearly twenty three years before the public, as, all things comparatively considered, the most popular writer of his age, is ono whom the patient public delight to see. They have a natural desire to see, in the body, that author whom they have known so long and so well in the aplrit. Thouiands, and tens of thousands, all 4:4yer his native land; aro personally grateful, ;` • •rbirs — of Tntellectuar enjoyment his writings have made for them. Hence, when -he comes to their respective localities, they eagerly rush to see him, and will do so the more gladly, when, at tho same time, they can also hear him road one of the productions which have charmed them. In truth, as we have been informed by those who have attended his public exhibitions, as the English journals tell us, and as we can readily believe, from recollection of his per formances as an amateur-actor, and of his occasional readings of a few pages, chiefly from SCOTT'S novels, in private, CHARLES DICKENS is an admirable reader. He was not schooled and drilled into this perfection by any "Professor of Elocution," with rising and falling inflections, and that childish hum bug of particular systems. Humans reads well;because he has a tine voice, a natural manner, a native grace, a clear perception, and a thorough knowledge of what he reads. Gift any human being with such qualifications, and he can scarcely fail to read well, though ho may not do so In the ore rotundo man ner which instructora so often insist upon as requisite. He does not mouth nor spout, but reads intelligently and intel ligibly, and points the meaning of particu lar passages with natural inflections of the voice, with quick glance of the eye, wish a motion of the hand or body. He varies his intonation, too, adapting hie voice not only to the variations made necessary by the dialogue, but to the sentiment of each passage, whether grave or gay. His readings, heretofore, have been limited to his Christmas Stories, to the pathetic history of Little Nell, condensed from 'The Old Curiosity Shop," and to tho touching record of poor little Paul Dombey's brief ex perience in life, with the saddening sound of the restless and uncertain billows ever mur muring in his ears. It is as difficult, we are told, (and can well believe,) to refrain from tears as well as smiles, at these DICKENS' read-, ings. He has the true w spell o'er hearts' which the poet declared to bo the glory of noble acting, and he sways the minds of those who hoar him, in a manner which nothing less than Genius could attain. Indeed, if CHARLES DICKENS had not been a great Author, he must have been a leading Actor. He has that Varying power of expres sion which is only described by the French word mobiliti—a power of adapting his fea tures to the passion of the scene, whatever that may be. Voice, figure, and action are good. His performances, at the amateur plays got up for the benefit of that bubble cc The Guild of Literature and Art," (long since burst, like other vanity.blown bubbles,) were surprisingly good. There never was a better Captain Bobadil, and, in Bex,wErt's drama "Not so bad as we Seem," the principal part was played by DICKENS, in a manner which few established actors of the highest repute, now upon the stage, could have surpassed. It was ono of the most difficult characters too, for it involved the appearance ofthe performer, not only in his own part, but in an assumed semblance of Edward Curl, the famous biblio pole of the Augustan age of British literature. Our readers may now have some idea of what sort of readings they have to expect from CHARLES DICKENS, should he be so courageous as to venture back to this country. What manner of reception he shall have is scarcely a subject to speculate upon at present. Whatever his demerits towards the American people, whom he treated at once ungratefully and ungraciously, we do not think that they will be remembered against him, in any very marked manner; to his detriment. And this we believe is simply because our people, if impressed with a recollection of the ill return he made for all the kindness which they lite rally heaped upon him, are also impressed with a sense of what is duo to the manly dig nity of their own personal character. They will probably crowd to hear Dzonom's Read ings, out of curiosity, but will not exhibit any of that warm feeling towards himself which was so abundantly, overfiowingly poured out upon him when ho visited this country, seventeen years ago. It is only proper that Mr. DICKENS should distinctly understand what his relations to his audiences here will be, should he return hither. Almost a new generation has sprung up, all over this country, since DICKENS was here before. Our young people, and many of their seniors, will be glad to see, to listen to, the celebrated writer who, though he laughed at us in "American Notes," and maliciously libelled us in " Martin Chuzelewit," yet has contributed more to the Intellectual Fratidee tion of the masses than any other author now living. Very few, oven of oar literati, will extend the right hand of fellowship to DICK. ENS. This he should be prepared for. It is singular that THACKERAY, who, by no means, is a genial man, should personally have many warm friends in this country, while Dioxxxs,who really is full of hearty geniality, and is, also, extremely unselfish, will 'scarcely flndoneman here who would warmly give him a hand-clasp, 'and cherish hini fn a his heart of heart." The difference in manner may probably account, to some extent, for this. But it is a curious fact, whatever it may arise from. [For The Press. To the Members of the City Councils. GENTLEMEN: I have read your ordinance, changing the names of oortain streets, lanes, 4t0., in the oity of Philadelphia. The preparation of it must have been a work of much labor and some delicacy; but, altogether, it will be 'unlit and acceptable It could not, however, have been ex. rooted that the ordinance would be faultless, or that there would be no instanoe of oversight: on the contrary, merits or defects are only to be die- covered by discussion and praotioe. For my own part, I have particularly ,coesidered, one , only. cf. the changes, and I respectfully offer som -of my reasons for finding fault 74010._ , It seems that the praotloo .of calling , several streets, places, &0., by the same name,, his caused muob confusion and uncertainty as to tia t e actual residences of our citizens, especially on,the part of strangers; and, therefore, it has been considered necessary that no two or more of our streets, places, Ao., shall severally have the same name. The propriety of .auati a change, at least as a general rule, cannot be questioned. At the same time, I think, it must be ceneeded, that when the names of two streets, for instance, are the same, and one of them is to be altered, that one of the streets, which has been most useful and longest known, should retain its former designs; Um. And I also think, when one of several streets is to retain the former name, that one of them should bear it which has peouliar character istics or antecedents. Allow me respectfully to apply these Observa tions to one of the changes - which you have made, Franklin,plaoe; south of, Market street, above Third street, and Hudson's . alley, 'smith of Chestnut street, above Third street, hereafter to be called Hudson street.. 1. Why should this change be made? If I truly understand your ordinance, there ire only two places named "Franklin place" within the• bounds of the new city; 'one of them is near Coates street, and the other is the venerable Franklin place, south of Market street, between Third and' Fourth streets. Your ordinance, gentlemen, has substituted the name 44 Franconia place" for the name "Franklin plate," near Coates street; so that, I presume, your reason for making a change in - name no longer applies to "Franklin'plaoe," near Market street—that is, there is, as there has been in the olden'time, but one "Franklin place," and there can be no mistake in regard to it. 2. But, even if you bad not substituted 'Franco nia for Franklin, ,as to the place near Coates street, I think yon onghtnot to have expunged the name of the old and well-known "Franklin place" in the heart of the old city. The . two "places," if existing under the name Franklin, would have been about two miles apart from each other, and there could be no uncertainty even on the part of strangers. Bat the remote and the obscure place near Coates street, yo'n hive honored with the new name 44 Franoonia:place," and have dropped altogether the name "F.ank— lin ,place," known to past generations as well as to ourselves. Why? 3. I have said that when two places are called by the same name, that one of them should retain the ancient name which has peculiar oharaoteris; ties or artGiedents; so that, even if you had not substituted "Franconia" for "Franklin" place, near Coates street, you ought, in my opinion, to have retained the ancient name "Franklin place" near Market street,. in consideration of its past WldOh you have not honored as you did the one near °mime street, with a new and distinct name, but which you expunged altogether, was the spot where Benjamin Franklin made his first home, when, a lad of seventeen, he mime, in 1723, to Philadelphia. It is the same spot where be mar ried, where his children and grand•obildrea were born, and where ho and his admirable wife lived and died. These interesting facts, gentlemen, oannot have been remembered by you. 4. While Dr. Franklin lived, (see first page of his will,) and for about thirty years after his de cease, the premises occupied by him were called and well known as Franklin court. When his do soendants Came Into possession, they improved the property at great cost, and opened the Franklin court for public use, without any remuneration from the county treasury. They took care to con tinue the name " Franklin court" while there was not a thoroughfare into Chestnut street; but, as soon as that was opened, all the parties inter ested adopted the name " Franklin place." ti. " Franklin place," thus opened to the public, is the only thoroughfare in one of the most valua ble squares In Philadelphia, bounded by Market street and Chestnut street, and by Third and Fourth streets; through the interior part of it two car riages may pass abreast ; there are many house in It yielding oonsiderable sums for taxes, water and gas; and, in my disinterested opinion, the day is not remote when, by openings from Third street and Fourth street, "Franklin place " will have business improvements, at least equal to any which have been made in more obscure localities to the east and to the west of it. Why, then, I repeat, should the name " Frank lin place )' be expunged from the list of streets or places in Philadelphia? By retaining it there can be no confusion or uncertainty, but the re verse, there being but one place of that name. By retaining it, respect will be shown for the asso ciations connected with the spat where the Places is. which ought ever to be regarded by Philadel phians. Why should those associations be lost sight of? In short, why should " Hudson street" be substituted for "Franklin place? " There is, indeed, an alley called Hudson's alley; and if there is any reason why the name Hudson should be honored, pray, gentlemen, let Hudson's alley here after be called "Hudson street;" but there is no reason known to me why "Franklin place" and "Hudson's alley" should be called by the same name—(l was about to Day why they should bo united, but that never can be) They cannot be a unit—they are separated by Chestnut street; their past history has been, and their future must be, dissimilar. Pray, gentlemen, compare the place and the alley impartially and carefully. 1 oan imagine but one suggestion for expunging the name "Franklin place"—but one considera tion that can have led to that decision : It may have been said that Franklin has been honored by having a square and a street named after him. As a reply to this, I simply ask why such a bene factor, as Franklin was to Philadelphia, to Penn sylvania, to the whole Union, nay, to mankind, ought not to have a square, a street, and a place also named after him? Has our own Philadelphia debt of gratitude to him been paid ? Where is there any monument to testify to his services, or to our sense of them ? The only and the beet monuments to such a benefactor as he was, are the renowned hospital, the great library, the Philosophical So ciety, the nubile schools, the fire insurance compa nies, and other distinctions and benefits, which he mainly contributed to establish. But still, no memorial of the thankfulness of Philadelphians exists. 15 It too much, then, to ask you, gentle men, not to expunge the name given . to Franklin's home, as if posterity had already done enough or too much? Pray hand down to oar successors " Franklin place" as we received it, honored as the spot where Franklin lived and died. DELTA. 4 4 Professor , 9 Itarey. Mn. Pnses. In an interesting Boston letter, from "Graybeard," whioh you published yester day, mention is made of "Professor W. 11. Rarey" being at the recent horse-fair at Springfield, "suc cessfully illustrating his singular art." I desire to know in what University Mr. Rarey occupies a Professorial chair, and in what faoulty ? some badinage, it might be said that (as in some foreign Universities) he is Professor of Humanity—the old phrase for the classics. The two questions whioh I here have put, aro not idle inquiries, but suggested by a conviction that we are mush too fond of bestowing honorary titles on slight or no grounds. "Professor" of horse-breaking is a new faculty of art, however singular. Yours L LEMON. Franklin's Grave.

In this way thephilosopher's fame and that glorious work would be indissolubly linked. Ow.

[PrePAM,. for The Press.l The first American . steamboat was built in Philadelphia, and plied Successfully week after week, between this city and Trenton, seventy three years ago. Our veteran Commodore Charles Stewart, still bale and hearty, wee a passenger on one of her tripe. The pivot-board, indispensable to the speed of sailing vessels, is a Philadelphia invention. Horizontal canvas for sails, now es teemed the best, also originated here. The fame of our ship-builders has extended over the whole met , cantile world. Their skill bas contributed ma; terially to the commercial prosperity and su premacy of the United States. Ships constructed here have long been known as orack sailers. Oar navy yard bas built the finest vessels belonging to the Government, twelve of them being now in serviee, two being ships-of-the-line, two frigates, three sloops-of-war, and four steamers. Within ten years a single firm in Kensington has built one hundred and sevon steamers, some of them first-class vessels for man service. Philadel phia is in' reality the only port at whioh a steamship can be suooessfully built.. There is here a concentration of facilities for the this business which can be found nowhere else. We are at the fountain head of cheap coal and iron: We have the best mechanical skill, expa -rience..and. faeilitiea ;Antiwar of the finest quality accessible- in various directions,- and the Most available point in the entire' Gnion' for the oon straotion of vessels efevery grede and description. The channel of the Delaware is known to be abun dantly wide and deep enough to float the largest vessel In the navy. Within a year past a ship so large that abe could not enter the port of-New York, came round 'to Philadelphia,. and found abundant water .at our wharves. Ourl eaitern, wharf front alone is three - -miles long. To be known as a Philadelphia _ meohanio is a passport to ,; employment at every - Workshoi in the Union. They are taught for and pre ferred over all others to build rail Way- in. Russia, Cuba, and South America. All the cotton of the South is cleaned by Philadelphia made gins. A Philadelphia built yacht has chal lenged the world, year after year, without finding any other city courageous enough to aaoept it. Even the mile of the world-renowned "America" and "Maria," the former famous for her triumph over the English in a contest for the supremacy of the sus, were made in Philadelphia. The entire business 'of 'ship and 'boat building of our city amounts to nearly two millions annually.%•Dull as the shipping interest bas been for two years past, we last year built a bundred and forty-mien new vessels. If ,Congress would but protect the gene ral industry of the Conntry against the pauper la bor of Europe, manufactures, invention, discovery, and all the kindred arts, would rise instantly with sympathetio vitality from the sore depressionwhich now crushes them down. RECOVERY 'OP - A LOST Powan.—Modern engi neers have been unable to understand by what machinery the ancients moved, and elevated into their places, the ponderous blocks of stone of which the pyramids andother ancient structures are composed. The machines which - effeeted this greatwork have'disappeared from the eartiroon temporaneously ,with the generations` that em ployed them. Sonia have supposed - that the me chanical power of the liver, wedge, - and screw bad in•their hands been more effectively devel oped than in ours; that, in fart; they kneW of and used a power belonging to them of which We have, -no knowledge.--as, if such had not been the case, the vast monuments of engineering genhis which they have left behind them could not have been executed. This loot - power,like some of - the lost arts, has been a subject for deep mialsanical study. An ingenoins inventor, Mr. David L. Miller, who entertained a similar idea, has constricted a-ma. chine which is represented to possess extraordi- - nary capabilities, and be believes that she has succeeded in recovering the lost power. This ma chine is at the Norris Locomotiie Works; in this city. It is portable, weighing less than 100 pounds.

BLAST DRILL FOR TURNIPS: 7 Om turnip crop of England is of as much importance to the com munity there as the corn crop is to us. Bat the crop is subject to destructive attacks from the fly, the slug, and other depredators, the former being the most voracious. To destroy these insects a blast drill has been patented by Mr. Joseph Row ley, of Sheffield. The common practice of pro testing the turnip from the fly is by dusting the row with lime during the night and while the dew is upon the plant. This operation is difficult, and imperfectly performed. Besides the slow process of doing this by hand, the difficulty of dusting the underside of the plant, as well as the top side, of fers an insuperable objection to this mode of ap plying lime, soot, or any other compost to the young turnip plant. This difficulty is now over come, and the lime is thrown, by means of a blast fan, upon every part of the plant, both on ;the up. per and under side. The fan is put in motion by the travelling wheels of the drill, and receives its velocity in the usual manner by gathering wheels • The blast thus created by the fan is brought to bear upon the plant, which, yielding to its action, bends from the current, as it acts upon a falling stream of lime or other composition the plant be comes completely covered with the powder. But this is not the only object the blast drill will accomplish. The fly, disturbed by a simple con. trireme, hops away, but is at that moment caught by a current of air entering the blast fan and in stantly destroyed, and thrown out again with vie lance from the vortex into which it had been drawn. This operation is simple; and the process of annihilation is similar to that a of mouse or rat going down a thrashing machine. The fly and the limo are yet so completely mixed and incor porated that the mischievous, yet delicate, insects are destroyed by the atmospheric pressure thrown upon them, and the plant is also secured, by the dusting of compost, from all future attacks of the enemy. WORT/MR.4E ENGLISII IRON.—Bad as much of the iron sent to this country is known to be, it continues to be imported because of its greater cheapness. For water pipes it has been proved to be nearly worthless, our own American made pipes outlasting them very many years. In England every refuse slag, and all the impure ores, are melted up into iron for this market by the all-re duffing agency of the hot-blast furnace. It is thus that the refuse of all Britain has been steadily shipped to this country for years past, our specula ting railroads greedily purchasing it in exchange for bonds, which frequently turn out equally worthless, and this is one great reason why the British iron-master is able to undersell the Ameri can. Every cinder heap in England is regarded as so much good iron for America. That English rails are made of such inferior material has been well ascertained by melancholy experience among us. The chief engineer of the Reading Railroad has proved that on the 60-pound English rail the wear was from 37 to 47 per cent., while that on the American was only 12 to 14 per cent. ; the break age on the English bar was one in 39 to one in 82, while on the American it was one in 127 to ono in M. Such an exhibition of utter rottenness may well be credited when the worthlessness of the material is known. The =ideate whtoh occur on our roads from the breaking of rails are now satisfactorily accounted for. Much English boiler iron, made in the same disreputable way, is also imported and need among us. Not a ton of it is used at home ; it is manufactured expressly for American consumption. LOORING-GLASSES.—Them indispensable appli ances of civilization aro manufactured extensively in Philadelphia. Not the silvering of the glass, but the cutting it into suitable sizes, and framing it. The glass is silvered principally in France and Germany. The process is one of the most curious of the modern arts, and is an extremely simple one. A sheet of tin foil, somewhat larger than the glass plate, is laid upon a smooth table, and quicksilver poured over it until the foil 10 covered with a thickness of a tenth of an inch or more. All impurities being swept off from the surface of the mercury, and the glass plate made sorupoloue ly clean, it is brought even with the edge of the table, and pushed gently forward sideways, so as to side ever the mercury bath, its edge jest dipping beneath its surface, so as to push before it all im purities, and to exclude all air-bubbles. Weights are inclined tbeneven t evenly applied sash an g d tothaengllse as to fa glass, and the vo w r hle tablethe drawing off of the superfluous mercury. This re quires some days or weeks, according to the size of the plate. There is a constant risk in the whole process, oven when the greatest oars is practised. The larger the glass the greater the danger of breakage and imperfections. Sometimes the amal gam crystalizes, producing flaws, which require the operation to be repeated. It is these causes which make large mirrors so very costly. In ad dition to this, high wages must be paid to the workmen, as the mercury produces salivation, de stroys their health, renders some of them cripples for years, and prematurely shortens the lives of all.

But the charges rin Pennsylvania are soab surdly graduated, that it costs more to take a boat through the outlet look than togo all the way down to Bristoli and thence to Bordentown.

He says Douslaa's friends will have seven majority certain in the Senate. and seven in the Noose—total On joint ballot, fourteen. That the chances are more than equal that they will have a majority of twenty - on joint ballot. That Douglas will receive twen. • ty thousand more votes than Buchanan received is 1a56. That the" Danite" (Buchanan) tiohist will not receive two thousand votes in the entire State. That in all county organisations they will vote with the Republicans. That they will not - elect a Buchanan member in the entire State. That in some thirty counties they will not. receive a single vote. Thistin some counties in which the Buchanan candidates live they will not get one hundred votes each. That they will not receive, on an average, twenty votes in each county of the Slate. That Judge Douglas will be returned most trium *Phantly to the Senate, the opposition in Illinois disgracefully beaten, and the Administration in Washington handsomely rebuked. These are bold prophecies—let us see how many of them are fa filled.—Pirroburgh Dispatch.

" Why," said the woman, !with an attempt at a blush, "I'm told that a negro's kiss will cure the toothache, and want you to try it." "I did try it," the barber said in relating the story, "I kits her lips two, tree times, and den she go away and no comeback and say whedder I cure her. Fah ! yah !

Fat is the rage. Ladies cultivate it. They are devouring vast quantities of butter, mashed rose leaves, and such like. The Empress Is quite corpulent, which accounts for the style. The fashion will be here before long. We bail it with "joy." A new era is dawning. Our girls will stop eating elate pen cils and chalk, and commence partaking liberally of roast beef and baked beans. They will rise with the lark. They will exercise. They will try on the washtub perhaps. SIMMER DEATII.—We are pained to an. ednetalytha on Friday last, of Hon. this city.
