AN article from the Bridgeport Leader, copied in our columns to-day, details some important facts regarding an important manufacturing iuterest, which all should read.

From the Bridgeport'(Conn Leader.

One Little Bridgeport Industry. The immense business of the Howe Sewing Machine Company of this city may be conceived from the fact that they have manufactured during the seven months of tbis year, ending August 1, O'i.OlH) Sewing Machines.

They manufactured iu the twenty-five workiug days ©f July,

12,500

completed

machines, which is 500 machines for each working day, besides manufacturing the full parts of 1-5 machines daily, which are sent from here to their factory in Scotland, to be set up or "assembled." It will be seen from this that this one manufactory is making over one firstclass Sewing Machine per minute, during every working day of the year. This company, with all its facilities, are unable to keep up with its orders, and is doing everything possible to increase them.

It can safely be computed that they will complete not less than 170,000 Sewing Machine the present year/and as the lowest wholesale price of their cheapest machine is $45, the product of their manfacture will not be less than $7,500,000.

We do not publish this statement with any desire to "puff" the importance and amount of manufacturing industries of this city, but we see so many long articles in the columns of State papers, dilating on the magnitude of the business of their manufactories, whose sales are but a few hundred thousand dollars, that we could not resist the temptation to give a few figures connected with our own.

With the above the following from the Indianapolis Journal will also be of in terest.

The management of the interest of the celebrated Howe Sewing Machine iu this city has recently undergone a change Mr. A. K. Josselyn, formerly the able and efficient manager of the affairs of the Singer Company in the States of Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and Michigan, at this point, has now assumed control of the business of the Howe Machine Company in the territory embracing the greater part of the States of Indiana, Michigan aud Iowa. His headquarters are located temporarily at No. 70 West Washington street, Indianapolis, but will soon be removed to Chicago. It is hardly necessary to speak in this com munity of Mr. Josselyn's qualifications for the position. His well-known energy, ntegnty and business capacity are sufficient guarantees that the affairs of the company will be pushed forward in an honorable and business like manner, and with a degree of success commensurable with the great merit of the Howe machine, which has a world-wide reputa-

tion. Mr. Foltz, the former agent here, will continue to act as the local agent of the company in supervising its interests in this city and couuty, under the direction of Mr. Josselyn.

Messrs. Chappell aud Van Duzer, the old agents for the Howe machine in Michigan, continue in charge of the local agency in Detroit and Wayne county, also under Mr. Josselyn's supervision.

We understand that the Howe Machine Compauy are extending every facility to Mr. Josselyn, that the business may be made the leading one of this nature throughout the whole of the extensive territory, and consequently are employing a large number of men in every county. We may add in this connection that the Josselyn family have a sewing machine reputation'that is almost national. Mr. H. R. Josselyn, of Detroit, formerly associated with John J. Bagley, also of Detroit, present Republican candidate for Governor of Michigan, and Mr. A. K. Jesselyn, constituting the firm of Josselyn Bros. & Co., in thesale of the Siuger Sewing Machine in the States of Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and Michigan, and more recently in charge of the Singer interests on the Pacific coast, has given up this management, and now has control of an extensive territory in the East, in the interests of the Howe Machine Company, embracing the States of New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island aud Connecticut.

Special Meeting of the Conneil. The City Council held a special meeting at the Council Chamber last Saturday afternoon, for the purpose of receiving the stock of the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad, and transferring $100,000 in city bonds to that company, according to previous agreemen\

The eport of Mr. Charles R. Peddle, and Mr. Joseph W. Nesbitt, and Mr. John C. Lewis, the engineers and referee appointed to examine the road, was presented and read.

Thereupon Mr. Bridenthal, of the Fourth Ward, presented the following resolutions, whieh were unanimously adopted

Resolved, That the foregoing report be received and concurred in. Resolved, That the Mayor be and he is hereby authorized and directed to turu over to the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad Company the bonds of the city, to the amount of one hundred thousand dollars, and receive for the same, stock in said company for the same amount.

WHAT IT COSTS TO MAKE GAS.—The price of gas is again receiving attention in the Eastern cities, aud, iu connection with an appeal for reduction from the present exorbitant rates, the statement, is made that it can be manufactured at fifty-seven cents per thousand cubic feet by private consumers. The example of the Cincinnati Hospital is quoted in proof of this. Now, the argument continues, if private consumers are able to do it at such figures, why not corporations, possessing vastly greater facilities? Echo answers, "Why?"—Ind. News.

THE circus paraded the streets this forenoon, and made a farcical turn-out, so far as quantity was concerned, though the quality was apparently very good. The band reudered excellent music, and the few cages in the procession made a very presentable appearance, much better than the freight wagons.

A Colored Liberal.

We give below an address to the colored citizens of Indiana, from Thomas G. Welch, a colored man of New Albany. He gives many reasons why the colored men of this State should support Mr. Greeley. The address will bear careful reading, and for the benefit of the colored readers of the GAZETTE, we transfer it to our columns: AN ADDRESS TO THE COLORED VOTERS OF

INDIANA.

FELLOW-CITIZENS It behooves the colored race to support that party which will give them the largest amount of liberty. We recognize in Horace Greeley the champion of our rights and franchises for the last forty years, while other men, now our professed friends, hesitated and even turned their backs upon us. He has been named by his fellowcitizens as a caudidate for the Presidency of the United States. He aspires to the position, not for the money value of the office, but that be can perfect and perpetuate what he so nobly began that he can aid in giving equal rights to all men that this country may be what it claims to be—a free country, having no creed or caste disfranchised within its limits.

It is claimed that we, the colored men, must not cast our vote with the Democratic party in voting for Horace Greeley. We do not vote with that party. That party, like all political parties, must have an end. So the Democratic and Republican parties have ended, and, Phoenix-like, the Reform party has risen from its ashes, recognizing free and equal rights to all men. We must have a change. The old Republican party has become so corrupt that honest men can no longer endorse it. Grant's nepotism, corruption and military rule must be abandoned, or our government, like all tyrannical governments, will prove a failure. The Republican leaders are running this government on military principles, and the power is being concentrated in the President and junta of the members of Congress, aided by a few designing, Corrupt and ambitious meu. The idea that this is a civil republican government seems to have been abandoned by them.

What is Gen. Grant's history? We find him in 1856, voting with the Democratic party. We also find him, all through Mr. Buchauon's administration ardently supporting him iu all his meas» ures. In the famous Dred Scott decision he WHS otie of firmest adherents, and throughout the civil war between the North and South he returned all negroes who came into the lines of the Union army to their disloyal masters, aud i& sued positive orders that none should be received inside the lines until he received orders from Washington compelling him to admit them. Did he not refuse and threaten to resign if not allowed to dictate to the Government the terms upon which he should allow Gen. Lee to lay down his arms, and his rebel soldiers return to their homes. After Lee's surrender, when the Government most needed his services, did we not find hitn, in 1868, on the fence, waiting for an offer from whichever party would run him for the coveted office. He was willing to accommodate his political views to meet the exigency, and now we find him a candidate for ihe second term with a record that would put to shame a military despot of continental Europe.

On the other hand, what has been and is the record of Horace Greeley? He, with Hon. Chas. Sumner and a host of other good and true men, who are now in the Republican ranks, are fighting for the rights of the colored race, and to put down corruption. These men have been battling for the freedom and rights of the colored race for the last forty years. They have stood up in their places in the Senate Chamber and on the floor of the House of Representatives as the champions of the colored men. They there declared that slavery was wrong and that the government should abolish it. Horace Greeley, in the New York Tribune, advocated the abolition of slavery so strong that it was held a crime, punishable with hanging, for a white man.or negro in the South to be caught with Greeley's paper in his possession. Can we, as colored meu, abandon a man that has been our friend through all of the dark past, in the hour of the great triumph for which he has so earnestly and faithfully battled during a long life. Now that we, as a people, have come out in the full sunshine of liberty and equality before the law, he only asks us for the one favor, and that of approval, in return for all he has done. He has grown grey in our defence, and deserves our unqualified support.

Colored men, you will stand in your owu light by voting against Mr. Greeley. He will stand by us in after years as he has in the past. He is our true friend. We cannot expect always to vote one way, solidly. We will be divided upon political issues. The Libera] Republican platform has beeu so framed that our race can stand upon it consistently. The principles there laid down are such that when they are adopted they will mako this country the most prosperous on the globe, giving equal Jaws to all. The poor man will not have to pay the rich man's tax, nor the rich man that of the poor our tariff will return a revenue sufficient to pay the expenses of the Government, with our civil service reformed the white and colored people of the country living in unision all enjoying the privilege ot supporting at the polls the principles they believe best calculated to advance the interests of the country, aud all enjoy a free press and free speech. These area few of the privileges that we shall enjoy, and a bird's-eye view of this country, when Horace Greeley shall assume the Chair of State at tbe White House. Our country is a grand one our flag floats on every sea and is respected in every laud, and with old honest Horace Greeley at the helm we will gail in peaceful waters at last.

Senator Trumbull arrived from Maine yesterday, where he has been actively engaged in the canvass of the State in the intereBt of Greeley. He thinks the Liberals will carry the State in the coming election. He left last night for Illinois. He will stop in Ohio and make several speeches while on the journey.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.—The Times, editorially, says the Vermont election tomorrow, will be watched with interest as indicating the strength of the Democratic coalition iu the Republican party, It says Vermont, undoubtedly a Republican State by a majority ranging from 18,000 to 20,000. The total vote of the State was not 58,000 in the last fourteen years, including four Presidential elections. The-Times thinks if the Liberal movement has any attractions for the Republicans, it would make itself felt in a State where the Republicans are so strong.

The Tribune editorially addresses the Liberal party in Vermont, urging it to bring out a full strength in the electiou to-morrow. It says 20,000 votes for the State ticket is your quota of five million votlt in the whole country, which would insure two-thirds of the electors by the friends of Greeley.

DETROIT, MJCH., Sept. 2.—Much excitement was created here, yesterday, among sporting men, by the sudden arriva', at Windsor, of Jem Mace, Barney Aaron and other well-known pugilists, aud the announcement that Ed wards and Chambers would fight the light-weight championship battle in this vicinity, Wedne day next and that Tom Allen, O'lvildwin aud other heavy weights, would also be on hand and that, then, another effort would be made to bring the Mace and O'Btldwin fight to a head.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2.—Another horrible shooting affair, which will doubtless result fatally, occurred early Sunday morning, in a disreputable region in the West Division. Two young men, named Patterson and Huxley, both desperate characters, quarreled about a woman, when Huxley shot Patterson in the bowels, and fled. He was shortly afterward arrested, and when brought face to face with his victim, boastingly admitted that he did the deed, and hoped it would prove fatal. Huxley will undoubtedly die.

JACKSONVILLE, III., Sept. 2.—OH Saturday afternoon, a horribl6 murder was committed about a mile and a half from the Rood House, in Green county, a farmer named Scott being the victim He was engaged during the day at work on his farm, and not returning to his home at the time he was expected, his wife became anxious for his safety, and going herself to the field, was horrified at finding his body with a bullet hole through his head.

Noorie,atlast accounts have been arrested as the perpetrator of the diabolical crime, but Suspicion is directed to neighbor who is known to have an old grudge against Scott, and who, since the murder, has not been seen. But it is believed be has fled the country.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 2.—'The*Pesident and Directors of the Cotton Exchange of this city, are in receipt of extensive re ports in regard to cotton crops in the principal producing States of the South. The reported injuries to cotton by bolt worms and cattepillars have, it is believed, been overestimated. Picking will soon commence, aud a very good ield will undoubtedly be the result.

[Special Dispatches to the Ind. Sentinel.l LOUISVILLE, Sept. 1.—The special dispatch to the Courier-Journal giviug positive proof of the connivance and conspiracy of the Grant leaders in the Duucan movement, fell like a bombshell upon Blanton and his coterie this morning. Though Blanton accepted the proffered frank of Morton' and Logan to disseminate his circulars in Indiana^and Illinois, he stoutly denies all complicity developing the Duncan strength in these States by the assistance of the Radicals, but the case is too plain. Duncan's thunder cloud lias proven to be all ind, and it has not swept things level yet.

It was unkind of the Courier-Journal ist at this juncture of affairs—the very morning after Duncan's initial success to throw just such a wet blanket, as that was over the convention. It ought to have been saved until after the adjournment, at least. How terribly provoking those letters were lost, and how much more uufortunate that they were found. Some think that Ledlie lost them on purpose, and that the cause has been betrayed—ruthlessly and traitorously betrayed. The letter of Wilber E. Storey plainly proclaims that he can give adhesion no longer to the Louisville embryo, for the damphools surely are in the lead in the affair, but it really pains us to find our glorious ideal of a heroic "solitary and alone I set this ball in motion" sort of a fellow like Blauton co-operating with such miserable political and moral bankrupts as Ledlie, Morton, and Bazoo Brown.

It ip, however, possible that the convention will go on, and Blanton secure some glory yet. The programme is to be changed now, aud Mr. Grant, instead of Mr. Greeley, is to be most fiercely denounced from the opening to the close ot the convention.

There are no arrivals at the hotels yet, and the usual preliminary setting-up of things is not observed to be going on, but from the spirited way in which Mr. Duncan drove down Main street this morning, it was concluded that part of the Russelville delegation might be in to-night, and some sort of a council might yet le held.

MARTINSVILLE, A ig. 31.—Col. Gray, of Randolph, is now speaking to 4,000 Democrats and Liberals here. His speech meets with immense applause. Our people are

not

disappointed, although

many came to hear Gov. Palmer, of IIliuois. At 9 A. M. the procession was formed, headed by the Martinsville Cornet Band, drawn by four beautiful gray horses, and next in the procession came the Martinsville Glee Club, drawn by six blacks, their wagon decorated with^ cedar and flags and banners, and filled with ladies and young men, beautifully uniformed. In the middle of the procession was a military band discoursing martial mu^ic. At th© satu# time a pole, 126 feet long, spliced with hickory and ash, with an old white hat on the top, was being raised. Anvils were being fired, and the whole town was excitement. The Grantites looked upon the splendid demonstration with perfect amazement. This has been a glorious day for Liberalism in old Morgan. Nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of the occasion except one dirty trick of the Grantites and postmaster of Ihis place, which was the tiefacing of George Washington's picture painted ou the band wagon, it being supposed by some dirty blackguard to be the photograph of Horace Greeley. Set Morgan county down for Hendricks in October, and Greeley in November, for 200 majority.

SOONER or later reconciliation IA bound to come. Tbe only question is when and how. Elect Mr Greeley, and we reach it at once by smooth road. He-elect General Grant, and we go on in the old way, wasting valuable time and sadly impairing our tempers. Reconciliation, we repeat, is inevitable but reconciliation this year, instead of four years hence, will be many millions of dollars in our pockets, besides a relief and a saving in the wear and tear of feelings, the value of which cannot be computed in money

MATILDA FLETCHER.

What William Henry Smith Knows About Her.

Spiking of a Grant Ann.

OFFICE WESTERN ASSOCIATED PRFSS, CHICAGO, ILU, September 1. A CARD.

For two or three weeks past the Associated Press has been advised daily of the oratorical triumphs of Matilda Fletcher on ie hustings. these reports, -day after day, come couched in about the same language, I conclude that, although from different points of the compass, they are inspired by the same persons. However that may be, they certainly never have been written or transmitted by any authorized ageut of the Associated Pre9S, and I have invoked the aid of managers of telegraph offices in vain to suppress them. The gentle Matilda is| superior to all official regulations, which is altogether admirable, and minht be endurable, if she would prepay her dispatches, after the manuer of George Francis Train. But as these dispatches invariably come marked "collect," I am constrained to ask the assistance of the local press, telegraph operators, enthusiastic young men throughout the country, and the public in general, in putting an end to such inflictions by telegraph, and lest our woman's rights friends construe this as aimed at their cause, I will add that it is hoped this card will convey a much needed hint to all over modest orators, whether cylindrical or bifurcate.
