Aar It makes ✓cur different Stitcher. the lock, knot.
&Pubic lock. and double knot, on one and the same ma-
chine. Inch stitch being alike on both Wes of the fa
bric. and neither of them will ravel.
/Mr It bee the renerathle feed motion, which enables
the operator, by simply turning a thumb screw. to have
th e work run either to the right or left. to stay any part
of the same, or fasten the ends of the seams, without
turning the fabric, a treat advantage over all others.
Mir Changing the length of the stitch, and from one
kind of alto/ to another, can readily be done while the
Machine is in motion.
air Every ditch ic perfect in itedf. making tile seam
secure and uniform.
air It is almost noiseless In its operations
air Its motions are all positive; there are no springs
to get out of order, and its eininlioltY enables the most
inexperienced to operate it.
orlt win not oil the drew of the operator, as all the
machinery is on the top of the table.
Aar - It is the meet rapid sewer in the world, making
five stitches to every revolution.
Air Its stitch io the wonder of all, because of its
combined elasticity, strength., and beauty ,
Kir..ll does the tawniest or finest work with equal
facility, without change of tension.
allr-Itvery Machine has one of Jenck's patent hem
mers attached. (the right to use which we *control, )
enabling the operator to turn any width of hem de
sired
Aar Thera is no,other Machine which w ill do so large
a range of work as the Florence.
air It does not require finer thread on the under side
than it does on the upper, and uses MU kind of thread
or silk.
+q- The needle is more easily adjusted than in any
other Machine.
Jur It will sew across the heaviest seams, without
change of tension or breaking of thread.

Elms Howe. Jr , and his associates.
Skip To avoid the strain on the epee, bent postures,
close application, and. fatiguing oars. heretofore ne
cessary on a larse proportion of work done on other
gewmg us chines, we now furnish each Machine with
"Barstusn's Self-Sewer,' which guides the work
itself, and is of great value, especially to inexperienced
operators.
gig -While possessing the above, and many otter ad
vantages. the Florence is sold at corresponding prices
with other drstclass Machines.
,l-We refrain from publishing the highly compli
mentary notices of the press with which we are daily
favored, and place oar Machine befora the public, know
lag that an intelligent examination of its merits will
fully subetcntlate all that we have claimed for it, and
justify the assertion we now make, that it is the best

On Wednesday afternoon, February 10th, I re
ceived a communication from the executive Com
mittee of the " Metropolitan Fair," requesting me
to solicit contributions to the fair, within my con
sular diatriet. Seeing that there was no time to be
lout, as contributions, in order to reach New York
at the proper time would have to be sent off from
here early in March, Itook the matter into imam ,
diate consideration, and', decided to call together a
committee of well•knoWn and influential gentle
men, to aid me in collecting not only gifts to the
lair, but also money contributions to the fund of the
"Sanitary Commission," a request for my co
operation in this latter enterprise having reached
me some days before, from the European branch of
the Commission, recently organized at Paris, and of
the executive committee, of which my friend Rev.
Dr. McClintock, the pastor of the American Chapel
at Paris, formerly of New York, but a Pennsyl
vanian by birth, is chairman. -
Thinking and acting were, in this instance, as
closely joined together as it is possible for them to
be. I put on my hat and left the office, and When I
returned, an hour or so later, it was with my commit
tee (at least as far as the city of Zurich was concerned)
organized. But do not imagine that this was easily
accomplished. In America, where an idea is caught
up and sent flying around like a shuttle-cock, in the
bands of children, four weeks may be considered
ample time to prepare gifts for a fair, get up a fete for
the Japanese ambassadors, or a ball for the Russian
naval officers, or, In fact, accomplish any thing short
of ending the rebellion; but here in Europe, and par.
tioularly in Germany and Switzerland, it is differ
ent, and, in any "search" after a committee, I
should have found it out had I not already known
it. I had but one answer to make to those who
"threw cold water" on the enterprise, in the shape
of doubts as to whether anything "worth mention
ing" could be accomplished in so short a time: " We
may not succeed in doing assauch as we might wish,
but I cannot feel satisfied unless we try to do some
thing; if ihen/we fail, the fault will not be ours."
The result was that, though one or two declined to
act upon the committee,
the committee was happily
"delivered" without them. The same evening I sat
down with a friend (Mr. C. Goalie!, for many years
in New York), and together we prepared the Oaf;
of an address setting forth the object andthe extent
of the operations of the " United States Sanitary
Commission," and its claims Upon each and every
one who possessed "a heart to feel foreothers ,
woes," not forgetting, at the same time, to intimate
to those who would be likely to complain that the
American war had already cost them enough in in
terrupting their business and depreciating the A.ms
can securities held by them; that, though our call
was in the interests of humanity, and not of polities,
they would, by assieling the Sanitary Commission,
beaten the close of the war and tie return of busi
ness prosperity.
The following day the committee appointed My
self chairman, and Mr. Goads] secretary, and the
addresa was adopted and placed in the hands of the
printer. Several days elapsed before the copies of
the address—four hundred in number—were ready
for distribution, and, in the meanwhile, I. had ar
ranged with gentlemen in St. Gall. Aarau, and
Wohlen, to cooperate with us, and their names
were added to the committee. The four hundred
copies of the address soon gave out, and a second edi•
tion, of two hundred copies, was printed and circu
lated. And now, having ueowed,” we awaited the
"harvesting," great or small, as the case might be.
The first gift was from Pdessrs. Arles, Dufour, &
Co., silk merchints, of Zurich—a piece of silk worth
250 francs; and the first subscription was by Mr. Otto
Andrea], aU. S. citizen-600 francs. A good begin
ning, verily !--but for nearly a week after the Alpha
of our enterprise appeared doomed to be its Omega as
well. Then the gifts began to come in ; and how shall
I describe their coming'? Not that it would be so diffi
cult to do so on account of their quantity as on as
count of their diversity. Engravings, zephyr.work,
liquors, photographs, pieces of silk, confectionery,
straw goods, mathematical instruments, ernbroide
rice, beautiful wood•carvings from the peasant
artists of the Oberland, ladies' fancy work of va
rious kinds,
: felt and cloth hats, music, (—just
let me atop long enough to catch my breath,) books,
pamphlets, leather gaiters, an autograph sermon of
the celebrated Lavater,
etc., etc., etc. ; and strange
indeed will it be if the taste for classic literature In
America does not receive a new and astounding im
petus from the broadside of classical which we have

PHILADELPHIA. PA
There are many pleasant incidents constantly no.
curring. For instance: one evening, in passing the
cake, I thought to stop a moment to see if there
were any letters in my box. Yes, there were. Upon
unlocking the box I found—not a letter, but a little
packet done up in tissue paper, and containing a
beautiful little bead purse—written (in German, of
course,) in a child's handwriting upon a slip of
paper, A little gift to the Metropolitan Fair.
Pauline Manz." Who "Pauline Maur" is, and
how she oame at hear of our benevolent enterprise,
I do not know, but the incident touched me, and I
felt as if I loved the child for this ant of "casting
bread upon the waters."
Cicero is represented by his complete works, in
eight large and beautifully printed volueies, pre.
rented by the publishers, Messrs. Orell, Fault & Co.,
of Zurich ; and Plato by hit Complete works, in
seven handsomely gotten•up volumes, presented by
Professor Baiter, of the University; and, in abort,
Demosthenes, Homer, Aeschylus, etc., are none of
them unrepresented. And leaving classic, come we
to technical literature—medicine, theology, and kW,
each contributed its quota; whilst last of all, for
once in the back• ground, abashed at the high•toned
company in which it found itself, was the "field of
romance."
And, dually, I must not forget to make particular
mention of a large and very beautiful landscape
painting in oil, " the Forest of Finze, in Switzer
land," after Diday, the celebrated French painter,
by Geneer, a Swiss artist, and one of Diday , s pupils.
TMs valuable gift was iron a Lodge of Zurich Free
masons, who purchased it for this express purpose.
Now, as you may imagine, the receiving, &chimer•
ledgement, registering, and temporary disposition of
all these things entailed no little labor upon some
one, and, naturally enough under the circumstances,
that one was myself. Whilst fully appreciating and
grateful for the valuable assistance of the various
member. or the committee, in procuring contribu
tions, beyond this they were not (and were not ex.
pected to be) of much service ; and, indeed, so greatly
did I dislike to trouble even the "secretary," at
moments when I knew him to be engaged with his
own buelnese concerns, that not unfrequently
did his work, or, in other words, played (1) the
part of "secretary to the secretary." And all this
whilst the buelnees of the consulate, which, of
course, had the paramount claim upon my atten
tion, was being punctually and punctiliously at
tended to. Can you imagine working harder?
But the time drew nigh for the sending off of the
gifts. Notice was duly given in the public papers of
the day upon Which contribution, would cease to be
received, and the announcement made that, by gene
ral request, the slam would be exhibited upon a cer
tain day. A. proposition to charge admission I
would not listen to, upon the ground that the gifts
having been freely given should be as freely seen.]
The exhibition came off, and the gifts, to each of
which (over two hundred in adl) was attached a neat
ticket--with a lithographed design of an American
eagle, with outstretched wings, standing over and
protecting the United States and Swiss shieldn, and
the words "United State. Sanitary Commiasion,
Zurich Committee," beneath—giving the number
and designation of the article, and the name and
residence of the donor, were duly admired. The
next day came the picking. This was, indeed, the
"tug of war." It occupied three of us, one of
whom was the secretary, who, for this purpose,
spared the whole day from his business, with oeors•
atonal assistance from a fourth, from early morning
until late in the "evening, and. a part of the next

The frightful dimensions of the tax levy; by which
our officials propose to pauperize the city, have
aroused a protesting spirit of indignation, which,
although it has been periodical during the last
quarter century, bids fair to induce, in this instance.
some practical results. Strangely enough she.

tioular interest in the matter. Perhaps it , hi4leert
calloused by long 'endurance. The working climes,
however, have grown rebellious, under the initiation
of high rents, and scarcely a day passes during
which handbills are not posted in the streets, call
ing for unity of action among them, and the vindi
cation of the poor right of living within the corpo.
rate limits of this Sodom of Sodomy. They have
already despatched deputations to Albany, with a
view to impreseing the Legislature with the necessi
ty of speedy and thorough action in the premises.
To the same body Mayor Gunther had addressed
a communication, in which be seta forth the expo.
diency and possibility of reducing the present levy
from fifteen to twelve millions of dollars. Doubtless,
a still greater deduction would leave sufficient for
absolute expenses, as well as fat subsidies for the
political Mende of those in power, the fighters at
the polls, and "the innocent people' , in general.
Since the Japanese swindle, however, we have little
faith in princes or the purity of regnant powers.
The public may be tickled by specious reforms, and
the excision of titbits here and there from the rolls,
but the bulk of the periodical swindles remains in.
tact. Mayor Gunther recommends that the mayor,
recorder, and comptroller, associated with throe of
the heaviest property-holders of the city, shall take
charge of the twelve millions, and apply the surplus
as in their wisdom 'they shall see fit—providing a
surplus can be found Such an arrangement, he as.

which we argue that, according to his idea, even the
twelve millions will be more than sufficient for the
payment of all legitimate expenses,
Even Judge Barnard has felt his sense of propriety
outraged by the proportions of the tax swindle.
Yesterday he referred to the subject while charging
the Grand Jury. But as the Grand Jury have
nothing whatever to do with the matter, save as
payers of their respective proportions, it is rather
hard to understand why the Model of Deportment
enlightened them regarding the fact.
Any particular reference to the Sanitary Fair will
be supererogatory in this communication, as the
main details are widely known throughout the
country. Financially, the fair is singularly success•
fill. The goods are literally snapped up by eager
purchasers, many of whom are from the rural die
triots and adjacent cities. It may be well to state
that the prices demanded are in no wise exorbitant,
as has been the case in many of the Sanitary Fairs
throughout the country, where managements have
apparently relied rather upon the persuasive powers
of pretty girls than upon the appealing nature of the
cause, and, to come down to horrible commonplace,
the intrinsic value of the wares themselves. Al.
though the fair has been thoroughly inaugurated,
contributions still continue to flow in, not only
from within our own boundaries, but from friends
of the country resident or travelling in Europe.
The Fair buildings are, at present, merely repre•
sentative portions of the city at large. As the Oar.
nivel is in Rome, so the Fair is in this metropolis ;
all.pervading the very gist of the city's tone. The
-daily prints are filled with leaded paragraphs the
walla and fences blaze with posters all, everything
is the Fair.
' , Here, there, everywhere, nowhere, that is

The sharp and relishable expose of folly and in
competence recently published by Carleton, of this

less a personage than Col. W. H. Armstrong, Deputy
Secretary of State of Pennsylvania. Such, at least,
is the gossip in literary circles.

engagement at the Winter Garden in a new and

The Common Council is showing so marked a
preference for Roman Catholic charities, that un
pleasant comments are provoked. Its last act has
been the conveyance of ten acres of landto a society
for the protection of Roman Catholic children. If
the Council was not niggardly with Protestant
charities, this benevolent spirit would be far from
distasteful to those who are forced to contribute the
means thus expended. The fact seems to be a little
OuriOult.

Government Hospitals.
There is not only an impression, but a firm belief,
widespread through the community, that the
General Government neglects its wounded add sick
soldiers, as well by inadequate general hospital as
commodationit as by insufficient medical and hoe•
pital supplies, and supplies of food and clothing.
The latter has been shown, in a general way, to be
erroneous. The first is equally so. Indeed, there is
scarcely an individual in the length and breadth of
the land, who, in making such a charge, would not
be guilty of ingratitude for there is scarcely any
one who has not felt, directly or indirectly, the
generous beneficence of the Government in all of
these particulars.

The name of each hospital and the name of each
medical officer in charge can be given if required.
Such was the state of affairs in December, 1863.
Each hospital had its complement of medical offi
cers, and abundant supplies of every kind. And the
mode of obtaining supplies is so simple and plain,
sod the inanities for doing so are so great, that any
medical officer in any branch of the Service, at this
late day, who has not a complete supply sufficient
for the command to which he is attached, or for the
wounded and sick under his charge, is inexcusable,
unless the elements have prevailed against him. To
carry the wounded and sick from the field hospitals
to the general hospitals, the Gdvernment has pro
vided ample means in the form of ambulances and
railroads by land, and of steam transport. by water.

Was eirMi higher than ills now, the prices of coffee,
tea, and sugar were greatly below exteting ram.
Now, if this fact were laid before a dealer he will
doubtless declare that the depredations of rebel
cruleere have so enhanced the rate of freight that
higher prices for coffee, acc., are the result. For this
evil of high prices we propose the following remedy—
to.wit : Let the Secretary of the Treasury, who has
on hand a large quantity of gold, be authorized by
Congress to place sufficient on board such men of.

results of failures of mope, or of combinations of
