-a Sir. BTaWi- V -- The Sewiajr-Macklae Trade. Effect or the EiplnUoa orFataata. Various opinions prevail among the manufacturers of sewing machines as .to the effect upon their business of the recent expirations of patents. Henry Bristow, agent of the Domestic Com pany, said yesterday to a Tribune re porter that their wholesale trade would not. be impaired. Their agents were constantly coming to the city and mak ing new contracts, and he thought it was a mistaken idea that the compa- nfcs would suffer. The canvassers only would suffer, as they would now get from 15 to 20 per cent commission in stead of 25 to 30 per cent, as formerly. It was not proposed to discontinue the sale of sewing machines by installments, as the company had 4,000 out now, and their system of collection was working well. The plan of putting machines out on trial would be materially changed. The company had lent 800 on trial, but this required a large force of teachers , and other employes. Heretofore can vassers had been permitted to put on trial any number of machines. They were now limited to ten each. When the reduction was announced, more than the average number of buyers made purchases, on that account. "The gist of the matter, as far as concerns us," said Mr. Bristow, in conclusion, "is, that the reduction of prices enables its to sell machines and hire canvassers at less expense, and at the same time increases our sales by popular prices." J. O. Woods, of the firm of Wheeler & Wilson, said the expiration of patents was the occasion not the cause of the reduction of prices. The real reduction was made months ago, and prices had only been kept up nominally since that time. A machine that formerly sold for 075 had been reduced to 850, but f:)0 was allowed then for a sewing machine given as part payment, while now 810 only was given. The system of install ments had proved ruinous. It was better to sell machines outright as low as 820or825 dollars apiece. Thousands had purchased machines who had no credit, and after paying other bills the sewing machine was paid for if any thing was left. It had been stated that there was a combination at Washington to get patents extended, but no such attempt had been made for several years, and there had never been any combi nation among the leading manufactur ers to keep up the prices. The pros pective changes in the methods of the business had temporarily checked the sales, because canvassers had not made arrangements for beginning work. Last week the "Wheeler & Wilson Company had done nothing, but on Saturday and Monday business had revived. Edward Clark, President of the Singer Sewing Machine Company, said it was too early to tell what effect the expira tion of patents would have on the trade, but he thought in a few months the sales would be larger than ever. The great competition must stop, for imita tors could not live on their sales, while the Singer Company could make a fair profit at the reduced rates. Bad meth ods of selling must also be abandoned, and as a natural consequence the ma chines having the highest reputation muBtbesold more extensively than ever. As a matter of fact, more money has been lost than gained in the business during the last few years. Few compa nies had declared dividends, and many had sold stock without having anything now to show for it Up to the time when the last "foun dation patent" expired the owners of those patents collected a royalty of f 8 for each machine made by companies not possessing the patent Expensive litigation was often required. With the recent expiration of patents law suits fell through, and as all companies which had the means were at liberty to manufacture, those with the largest capital at once put down the prices, to deter others from entering into compe tition. The Singer was selling more now than before the reduction. This might be accounted for from the fact that may people had delayed buying, as they expected a fall in prices. On the average, profits were now equal to what they formerly were. The outlook for responsible companies was better than ever, while the permanent effect of the reduction could only be told after sev eral months. 2V. T.Tribvne. Black Walnut. "A subscriber" writes us from New York, and wants to know "if all this talk about a black walnut famine amounts to anything?" Who first started the cry that our walnut forests were being cut down so rapidly that we would soon be destitute of that valu ble wood we know not, but we are con fident that there is no danger of such a "famine" in the immediate future. The "slaughter" of this wood, as they call it, has been very great of late years, but we are inclined to doubt the assertion that there is no younger growthio sup plant the trees which the choppers' axe level every day and hour. The grow ing demand for mahogany has not ma terially affected the walnut market Mahogany has not yet come into any thing like general use, ana we aoHDtits ever taking the place of black walnut The objections against it will have to be outgrown, they can never be so over powered that this generation will ac cept mahogany instead of walnut for general use. There are yet great forests of walnut here in the West and it will take more than the destroying forces of the next ten years to deprive it of its wood, which is its pride. If your Legislature would pass an act like the one now in force in the department of Biscay, France, which compels every land owner to plant two saplings for every tree he cuts down, there would be no cause for all this talk about the dearth of walnut, and then people who delight in predicting all sorts of horrible catas trophies and terrible troubles to our seoices would be silenced.

The latter sold it to Murray for 2,000, for publication, but subse quently Moore, at the instance of some of Byron's friends, who deemed it total ly unfit for publication, bought it back. Among those who read it was Wash ington Irving, who, in his later days, of ten gave to his intimate friends many particulars regarding this work. It is now stated that the son of one of these friends intends to publish a work, under the title of "The Supposed Biography of Byron," and great indignation is ex pressed. Washington Irving, we are happy to know, expressed his opinion most strongly against its publication. It is a very common blunder to call the President of the French Republic Marshal de MacMahon. The prefix "de" implies a faudal tenure, from which the family name, coming after it was taken. It was brought into France by the Franks, and it is the translation of the Teutonic "von." Cel tic nobility had its source in personal qualities. MacMahon was originally the son of a certain Mahon, who was taller,orhandsomer,or fleeter, or a more daring hunter, or a braver warrior than his other clansmen. "Mac" had no mere to do with landed estate than the Bre ton "Le," the Irish 0" or theAnglo Normon "Fitz."

Dr. Pond's Farnoas Canoer Hospital, Aurora, Illinois. Read th Teetlwinay of Charles G. Bargaa, City Recorder. The Times has made frequent men tion of Dr. Pond's Cancer Hospital, of Aurora, 111., but will now give the tes timony of one of our most worthy citi zens, Charles G. Hargus, City Recorder, a gentleman who has lived among us for many years. His testimony., will not be doubted by those who know him. In 1847 there appeared on Mr. Hargus' left breast just over the heart a fibrous tumor or cancer. He was then living in Galena. It was about the sire of an orange, extremely painful, and grew very rapidly, so much so as to require its removal by an operation, which was ferformed by Dr. Johnson of that city, t was not only removed, but the breast bone was scraped and all of the poison ous flesh was pronounced removed. It soon healed, but the crimson mark was still there. Sixteen years later It again appeared, the only perceptible differ ence being in its size. It covered a much larger portion of the breast Its ravages were so severe that it literally sapped the life-giving fluid of the sys tem away the blood. When death seemed the only alternative, Mr. Har gus again acted upon the advice of our meat trustworthy physicians, and underwent another surgical opera tion, this time by Dr. Horr of this city. The operation was performed with much skill and credit to the profession. The doctor took up all of the little arter ies, scraped the ribs and breast bones, in fact aid all that could be done. The weight of the tumor or cancer cut away was something over four pounds. After this operation Mr. Hargus was nothing but a walking skeleton, instead of the hearty, robust man of but a few yeav previous. "The operation was bene .c lal inasmuch, as it checked the growth of the cancer; but these beneficial re sults proved to be only temporary, as the tumor or cancer reappeared the third time, and was again removed by means of an operation performed in 1874. by the same surgeon. He removed about the same weight as before, but this graved to be worthless as to lasting enefits. In February last the cancer had grown to greater proportions, and was more painful than ever before, and Mr. Hargus concluded to visit the cancer Hospitals of the East, to ascertain if he could not procure treatment for the permanent removal of the tumor or cancer without undergoing another sur gical operation. After making the cir cuit of all the cancer Hospitals, includ ing the one at Rome, N. Y, and receiving but littleer no encouragement, losing considerable time and money, he concluded to take treatment of Dr. Pond, Aurora, III He remained there more than two months, during which time the tumor or cancer was entirely killed and removed by plasters and poultices. So completely was it killed that it dropped out roots and all with out pain or loss of blood. It has now been about a year, the flesh has been grafted over the spot, and to all ap pearances, is in a healthful condition, and the spot has almost entirely disap pearedthe breast now being perfectly sound and rugged. Mr. Hargus says he'Weighs more at present than he has for the past ten years, his weight being 170 pounds. This is truly a wonderful cure a cure that will prove lasting, as the plasters or poultices, eradictate the disease from every afflicted nerve and artery, and thereby allowing nature to perform her functions in the system. Mr. Hargus now feels that he has a new lease of life, bat little dreamed of a year ago when his whole system was undergoing the excruciating pains of the horrible affliction of a continued easing into and robbing the system of the essentials of life, the blood vessels. 'Ne vr aHow a cancer to be operated upon by a dissecting knife, for In nine cases out of ten it will appear in a worse iorm. than it was before being operated upon. Get the plaster or poul tice treatments If it is done properly it will prove a lasting cure. We might cite hundreds who mar testimony to Dr. Pond's method of treatment and S renounce it a blessing for those af icted with the accursed disease.
