The ('oimli tiitioiinlint nnd Justice.
In his reply to Justice, the Editor ofthe Consti
tutionalist professes to have detected an error in
Justice’s cyphering. We have not examined his
figures and do not know whether they are right or
not. Justice is able and willing to defend himself
Ilut we have detected a very important error in
the statements of the Constitutionalist. In con
trasting the e unings of the State Road under Mr.
Spullock and Dr. Lewis, he neglected to mention
that Mr. Spuilock's report was for an entire year,
from September 30th, to September 31th; whilst
Dr. Lewis’s is from January 1st, to September
30th, only nine months. The other three months,
that is from September 30th, to January 1st, the
Road was managed by Mr. Spullock. Was this
omission of one-fourth of the time, intentional or
accideutal ! The attempt of the Constitutionalist
to make an issue bntween us and Gov. Johnson is
ridiculous, and no one ought to know this better
than the Editor of the Constitutionalist. Out-
friendship for Gov. Johnson is known wherever
tiie Federai Union is read. When tiie Editor of
the Constitutionalist was the Editor of the Journal
and Messenger, lie had abundant reason to know
that our defense of Gov. Johnson from his assaults,
was neither feeble nor ineffectual.
Hasty Legi»lalia>.
Every member of the Legislature who was pres
ent in his seat during the last few days ofthe ses
sion just closed, must have had this conviction
forcibly impressed upon him, viz; that 4 ) days are
not sufficient to do the business of more than one
hundred and twenty counties, and to do it with e-
qual justice. It may be said by sonic that a large por
tion of the time is consumed at the begining, and
all through the (Session, in discussing matters of
public interest, and that too much is said, and too
little done. But should not questions of public in
terest be thoroughly discussed in the Legislature?
More than one half of the members of the Legisla
ture have not formed their opinions on matters of
public policy when they take their seats—and per
haps there are less than a dozen gifted debaters in
either branch ot the Legislature at any one Ses
sion; is it not right, therefore, that men who are
able to discuss the merits or demerits of great ques
tions, should give the other members the benefit of
their knowledge and experience? Certainly. Ques
tions of vital interrst to the people, ought to be
discussed in the Legislature, where they are
brought to be enacted into laws, and by which the
people are to be governed. The Legislature is the
very place to discuss such questions, and it should
not be urged as an objection that too many speech
es are made. So far as we can recollect, we have
never seen a Legislature address itself more close
ly to its legitimate and proper business than that
just closed. I’olitcial subjects which usually con
sume three or four days of each session, were not
discussed at all. And yet with all the application
and industry of the late Legislature, it is unques
tionably true, that the business before it, near the
final adjournment, deserved, at least, another
week’s consideration. The sessions ought to be
fifty instead of forty days. This would bring the
adjournment to the 22d day of December and
give every member full time to return
to bis home before Christmas Day. The public in
terest requires a longer time than Forty days, and
we hope some future Legislature will be wise
enough to require the members of the Legislature
to sit Fifty days. Members should not, because
their local bills are disposed of, leave others, less
fortunate, to see their bills fall under the hammer
of a confused nnd hurried session. They should
also remember, the State has great interests at
stake, which demand of every member ofthe Leg
islature, the same vigilance and industry that he
gives to a favorite measure affecting only his im
mediate constituents. There should be so much
time at its disposal, that the General Assembly
should never be convened at night. If Legislators
faithfully discharge their duty through the morn
ing and afternoon, the evening should not be de
voted to Legislative business, but to rest and so
cial intercourse.

“The Hon Eward Everett has paid over to the
Mount Vernon Association ten thousand dollars,
received by him from the editor of The A Vic York
Ledger, in consideration of his giving to that paper
throughout the coming year, original weekly cou-
tributations, under tho head of “Mount Vernon
Papers.” This.indeed, is such an arrangement as
no other publisher in the United States, if iu
the world, ever had the liberality and boldness to
make. Edward Everett is the most accomplished
scholar now living, and we know not where to
look for his equal in taste, and knowledge and
genius, and iti grace, beauty, splendor, and mag
nificence of thought and diction. The fact that a
writer like him lias engaged, at an extraordinary
rate of remuneration, to contribute regularly to a
weekly family newspaper, must, of course, create
an imtuens demand for that paper everywhere
throughout the nation, and when it is known that,
in addition to his splendid contributions, the same
paper has the regular services of twenty or thirty
other writers, each of whom has a national reputa
tion, the aggregate of salaries paid out amount
ing to at least thirty thousand dollars a year, and
probably more, surely the demand cannot fail to
be literally tremendous. The Ledger's present
circulation, of nearly half a million, may bo ex
pected to rise rapidly to a million.”

Democratic Convention—'l he next Democratic
Convention —There seems to be a variance as to
tho time appointed by the Milledgeville Caucus for
the meeting of the next Democratic Gubernatorial
Convention. The short notice that appeared in
the Republican some days ago, named the 2d Wed
nesday iu Juno. This was a typographical jrrror,
the figure 3 having been substituted for 2. l’he
Constitutionalist of yesterday says the 1st Wednes
day is the day. We were present at the meeting,
and though we have never seen tho published pro
ceedings. we feel quite confident that the 2d Wed
nesday was the day named in the resolution.
What says the Federal Union,
We copy the above from tho Savannah Repub
lican. The resolution referred to was introduced
by Mr. Diamond of DeKalb and by him withdrawn.
This is our recollection of the matter as we were
near Mr. Diamond when the motion was made.
Hence no time is fixed for that Convention and
there is no necessity for one to assemble.—Times.
Amen!—Federal Union.
a*E.RMaH II. Clark.
We are gratified to learn that the above named
gentleman, who is the democratic nominee for
Judge of the South-Western Circuit, gives very
general satisfaction to the party, and is very pop
ular with the people of that Circuit. Col. Clark
is a fearless champion of Democracy. With tal
ents of a high order, he has a clear head and a
kind heart; a happy combination of those qualities
which constitute administrative talent. He is not
only an eloquent speaker, but a thorough lawyer,
and will be, if elected, an ornameut to the bench.
We understand that the convention by which
I-e was nominated, was a fair one, and the coun
ties of the Circuit generally represented. Tk
Democracy of the circuit may well be proud of a
their candidate, and will doubtless give him
cordial support; and many of the opposition wil
take pleasure in aiding to place a gentleman so
well qualified upon the bench. Col. Clark stood
high as a Georgia Senator. Asa debater as well
as a firm advocate of the rights of the 9outh, he
stood second to no man on that floor. In the stor
my session of 1849 and ’50 no man in the Senate
occupied a more enviable position. He and Gov.
Brown, both young men, entered tho Senate to
gether and acted together firmly and continuous
ly. They served together afterwards as members
ofthe Electoral College that cast the vote of Geor
gia for that pure man and patriot, Franklin
Pierce. And it is not amiss to say that Col.
Clatk is now and has been a firm and active sup
porter of Gov. Brown’s administration. The honor
which the people are about to confer on Col. Clark
is a distinguished one, and well does he deserve
it.

books are very nicely bound.

Messrs. Editors : Permit me to enquire, through
your paper, why it is the Board of the present
Council, do not order their proceedings to be pub
lished ? If report he true the meeting ot the
new Board, a few evenings ago, took initiatory
steps for some extravagant and unnecessary ex
penditures of money. Let their proceedings- be
published in detail as they are in Macon, Colum
bus aud elsewhere, then the people can know who
it is that favor high salaries, and reckless expendi
tures. It may also let them into the secret, and
answer the question, in the mouth of every one, why
it is our taxes are so exorbitantly high.
TAXPAYER.
Central Pacific Rail Road.—The bill which was
introduced by Mr. Curtis, of Iowa, in the House
of Representatives, on Tuesday to secure the con
struction ofa Central Pacific Kail Road, provided
for branches from two points on the navigable
waters of the Missouri river; one opposite to Iowa
and the other opposite to the Missouri; the two
branchi s to converge and unite within two hun
dred miles ofthe Missouri riverjand thence run to
the navigable waters of Sacramento .The usual ap
propriation of the alternate sections within six
miles are to be appropriated to the contractors at
twelve thousand dollars a mile, to be reimbursed
to the Government in transportation of mails and
military stores. The construction toj be offered
by the President to the lowest bidder, as proposed
by Senator Gwin’s bill. This plan starts at the
outer rim of our present Railroad connections, and
terminates on the navigable waters in the centre
of the California population. It is claimed that it
would bo equally convenient to slave and free
States, and for connection!) with all our Pacific
Territories. It would follow the emigrant route
up the Platte, through Utah, and be about sixteen
or eighteen hundred miles long. The bill was
referred to the select committee on the subject of
the Pacific Rail Road, which was revived for the
purpose of its consideration.
Alleged Forgery.—A man ca ling himself Sam
uel Adams, but whose real name is supposed to
be J. S. Stephens, and who hails, wo understand,
from LaGrange, Ga., was arrested by officer Mc-
G ibbotty on Saturday last, charged with having
forged a check for $970 on Charles J. Williams
of Columbus Ga.
Tiie circumstances we understand to have been
as follows: The check was presented at the Bank
ing house of Josiah Morris, in this city, for pay
ment, when suspicion was raised as to its genu
ineness. A telegram was dispatched immediate
ly to Columbus and the suspicion of forgery con
firmed by the answer of Mr.; Williams. McGibbo-
ny afterwards made the arrest, aud Adams Was
taken before Justice Bugbee who held the accus
ed to bail in the sum of $1,000 to appear and an
swer the charge at the next circuit court. Not
being able to furnish the requisite bond. Adams
was committed. While before the Justice. Ad
ams made an unsuccessful attempt to swallow a
paper which is supposed to have been another forg
ed check. In this attempt he was frustrated by
MeG., who seized him by the throat and made
him deliver the paper. Several letters and other
checks purporting to ho drawn by Adam G. Foster
and also supposed to be forged, were found in his
possession. These are in tho hands of the Jus
tice.—Montgomery Advertiser.
Sleep.
No one can be well long who does not have
sound sleep. All do not need to sleep for the
same length of time; the old needless than the
young; those who work, than those w ho do not;
a man does not need as much as the who has
made ‘a h Ip meet for him.” To give rest and
strength, sleep must be sound, and it should be
for six or eight hours at a time; if in short naps of
half an hour or so, it does not do much good, as
it does not make one feel fresh and strong, and
full of iife.
As sleep, then, is of such use to all, you should
do what you can to have sound sleep, for some
hours at the time; for those who are not well must
have it. Do not sleep in the daytime. Go to bed
at the same hour each, at least by ten, and when
you wake rise at once, and sleep no more till ten
at night; aud soon, it may be in a week or two,
you may be able to go to sleep as soon as you lie
down, and sleep sound till the dawn of day; or at
least you will wake up as soon as you have had
as much sleep as you need, such is the wise law
which rules your frame.
The length of which we pass in sleep is not the
same for all, some need six, a few nine hours
sleep. One may doze from ten to twelve hours
a day, but it is not the true, sleep of health.
As a general rule, it is better for persons to sleep
in a room w here there is no fire, except perhaps
in December. Janiiaty and February, and even
then there should he none except in tho coldest
nights, unless the person is very much of an inva
lid. Seven hours sleep is enough for most per
sons. In winter one hour's sleep is needed, more
than in summer, usually. So you may remain
in bed seven hours at the fatherest in summer,
aud eight hours in winter. Do not sleep ou your
back, or with your mouth open. Y'our sleeping
apartment should, if practical, be equal to twelve
feet square, facing the sun, on an upper floor, with
a grate or fire-place left open, with a window
raised two or three inches from the bottom and
lowered from the top, if convenient; this is as nec
essary, in cold as in w arm weather, iu damp, as
well as dry; the room should be as free as conve
nient of standing fluids, even of common cold
water, of banging garments, aud unnecessary
furniture; the bedding should be aired ou the
backs of chairs from early morning, and made up
about.mid-day. Persons much inclined to chilli
ness should have a good fire to get up by, and it
the w eather is very damp or cold, a fire might be
made up about sun down, and allowed to burn
out w ithout replenishing.
Leave the room in which you have slept as soon
as you can in the morning.
Wear none of the clothes at night which you
have worn in the day, but hang each piece on a
chair to air all night, to be fresh and clean to put
on next day. Sleep iu a gown at night, not made
of woois but that of which sheets or shirts are
made of. You will not take cold by this change
though you may have slept in wool for a great
while, if you take the pains to rub the whole skin
from top to toe with a coarse, damp, cold
when you goto bod.
Underground Railroad.—We learn that a party
of ten colored persons from Kentucky, reached
this city on Monday morning, via the Lake shore
ruad, from some point iu Pennsylvania, where
they have beeu staying a few days, aud were
gent across the river to Fort Erie during the day.
Large crowds of our colored citizens were present
to see them off by the Black Rock Ferry.—Buffa
lo Courier.—
Confession of an assassin.—A few days ago a
middle aged and apparently hard working nan,
who gave his name as Peter Martin appeared at
the police office in St. Louis, and stated that he
bad committed a murder, and wished to be taken
into custody. The St. Louis Herald says: i
He stated that about six weeks ago he left *
Cincinnati for St. Louis, At Cario he took pas-j
sage on a New Orleans boat, bound upward, and ■
in due time arrived in this city. The day before 1
his arrival here, while on a drunk with another;
deck passenger, whose name he does not remem-.
ber, lie was robbed by him of all be bad He en
deavored, as he alleges, for twenty-four hours to I
induce him to return his money, but finding a J ,
efforts to accomplish that end unsuccessful, he.
determined shortly after the arrival of the boat at
St. Louis wharf to revenge himself upon him.
Borrowing a sheath knife from another passenger, j
he waited upon the starboard guard of the boat .
till his victim went to pass him, when he stabbed
him to the heart. As he tell he pushed him over- .
board aud instantly threw the knife after him and i
left the boat. Since that time, he states, he has >
been wandering in verious parts of Illinois, be-
tween Cario and this city, uuabled to work, una-1
hie to sleep, haunted constantly by the image ot *
the murdered man. Unable longer to eudure it ;
he determined upon delivering himself up to Jus
tice, and accordingly presented himself at the po- ,
lice office, as above stated. He was sent to the j
calaboose. j

an gu rat ion to the present moment, success-1
ful -and satisfactory to the people. In I
giving the meed of praise to his adminis- '
tration, we do not retract one iota from j
the glory attained by other administra
tions. We simply “give unto Caesar the
things which are Caesars.” We do not
endorse every recommendation which
Gov. Brown has made to the Legislature
especially his suggestion about State aid
with “ample security” in his late message,
but his administration as a whole has
been so wise and economical, that he just
ly merits the plaudit of “well done thou
good and faithful servant” from every
honest man in the State. We need not
refer to the acts of his administration in
proof of what we say—we need not allude
to his bold independent course in displa
cing officers—adhering to true and cor
rect principles and his successful manage
ment of the State affairs to vindicate us
in awarding to him what justice demands.
We mean simply to echo the sentiments
of thc*people in wishing the shafts of mal
ice thrown at him to be broken and that
he will remain another term in the office
which he now fills with so much credit to
his party and honor to his State.— Times

The French Uintage.—All Francois so exultant
over the large vintage, in such great contrast both
as to quantity and quality compared with several
previous years, that they pay very little attention
to political matters. Notwithstanding the great
abundance, the trade is exceedingly active, aud
prices kept up. Large purchases have been made
in all the principal vineyards, and^there is even a
rise in thefirst growth of Bordeauxand Burgundy.
The stocks of old wine being almost exhausted,
and tho wine of 1858 being of a most superior
quality, people are anxious to lay it down in their
cellars, and to sell as little as possible of it this
year. Many of those wines which in ordinary sea
sons are used only for mixing or for distillation will
this year be sold for consumption as superior tin
ordinairie. The new wine wil! take a year at least
before it is fit to ship or send out, and then proba
bly it will require six months before it is ready for
use or for bottling, and even then it cannot be re
commended for immediate consumption to persons
advanced in years or of delicate stomachs. No
wine is entirely divested ot acidity till a couple of
years have jiassed over the cask, and afterwards
until the wine has been suffered to remain three
weeks in the cellar, carefully bottled. In the
IJuited States, the taste for high priced Bordeaux
wines is almost as general as in Great Britain.—
The great houses in bow uoont their ex
ports by thousands of hogsheads to New York,
Philadelphia, and Boston, not to speak of the les
ser, yet still very considerable marts.
Fatal Affray in Miller.—A friend writing to us
from Colquitt, Miller co., on the 3rd inst., says
that Mr. M. F. Rickland died in that place on
Thursday last, of an injury inflicted on his person
on the lstiust. by one Daniel Pickren, who lias
fled to parts unknown. The deceased was drunk
at the time of the affray, and had come to Colquitt
for the purpose of attending Everett's exhibition.

The Visit of the British Officers to the Wash
ington.
Captain Churchill, of the Washington, gives
the following statement of the British steamer's
movements against him;
English officers with side-arms came on board,
and asked him, among other questions—
Where he was from?
How many passengers he had on board?
If he stopped at any port on his way out?
How many days he was from New York?
He answered these. They then asked for his
passenger list. For this list he referred them to
the purser.
They (the officers) then went to the purser's
room, and requested to be shown to the passen
ger-list, which was handed them.
Question. How many passengers have you?
The purser pointed out the number.
Q. Are they all Americans?
A. No, of various nations.
Q. Have they arms?
A. Not to my knowledge.
Q. Has the ship arms?
A. No.
Q. Did the American officers who boarded you
outside the harbor make an examination of your
hold?
A. No.
Mr. King, executive officer of the Washington
who was present then remarked that if they wish
ed any further information they could obtain it
from the American men-of-war then in port.
The officer replied that ibis instructions were to
obtain his information direct.
The British officials not liking Mr. King’s rough
manner thereupon left.
Arizona.
A bill for the organization of the territory of
Arizona comes up as a special order of the day in
the Senate ou Monday. We trust it may receive
the immediate attention it deserves. It will bo
recollected that iast session the delegate from New
Mexico. Mr. Otero, while admitting the necessity
ot a territorial government for Arizona, differed
with Mr. Mowry, the delegate irom Arizona, on
the question of the Northern boundry, upon the
ground that he was not informed as to the wishes
of the people of the Rio Grande. During the re
cess of Congress,Mr. Otero has been called upon
by the unanimous voice of the people of the Riml.
Grande to unite his exertions with those of theif
delegate Mr. Mowry to procure for them :upeparate
territorial government. Responding to/this cittf
upon him by the people, we kSrn that the dele
gate from New Mezico has withdrawn the objec
tions he urged last session, and is nmv acting iu
concert with the delegate from Arizoipi. The
proposed territory is admitted to be one of the
most valuable of our possessions already numbers
a population of more than 10,000 souls, and is at
tracting rapidly a large and good emigration. The
proposition to organize the Territory is simply
tIns: to afford protection to our people—to protect
the overland mail, daily threatened—and to restore
upon our Mexican frontier the prestige ot the
American name, sadly tarnished'' during the past
years of neglect.
The Yacht Wanderer.—We are informed by tel
egraph that the Savannah Republican of the 11th
states oil good authority that the yacht Wanderer
had succeeded in evading the vigilance of the
cruisers, and landed a cargo of negroes in the
neighborhood of St. Andrew’s sound, near Bruns
wick. A portion of the cargo was subsequently
seut up the Satilla on boqrd a steamer.

A Purifier of the Blood, and certain cure for Scrofula
or King’s Evil. Lumbar Abscess, Hip Disease White

Eyes,Scald Head, Salt Rheum, Scurvey, Chorea or
St. Vitus’ Danee, Asthma, Jaundice, Chronic Rheu
matism, Chronic Debility following Intermittent or
Malarious Fevers, hud ull diseases arising from the
excessive use of M ereury.
Tiie Vegetable Alterative is -fTered to the public as a
radical cure for the ubove named diseases, arising wholly
or in part from impurity or vitiation of the blood—the
basis of its success rests upon the well-known altera
tive properties of Spanish Sarsaparilla, which is im
ported expressly for the compounder of this medicine in
all its purity; it is then, with tiie addition of other medi
cinal plants—alteratives aud tonio in their action—
manufactured witli great care, and concentrated in a
E (datable form, making by the combination, one of the
est Alterative Medicines evey used. It is mild yet
active; in its operation; it renovates, while witli confi
dence and safety.
It is an Alterative Tonic and it peculiarly adapted to
malarious sections of the conutry—it eradicates thor
oughly all traces of chronic debility which so often fol
lows ail attack of severe or protracted cases of intermit
tent fever. Id the South and West it has beeu thor
oughly tried, and has never failed to restore the invalid
to health, sometimes after all other remedies have fail
ed.
In diseases arising from an excessive use of mercury
or other mineral medicines, it is unsurpassed in the
thorough and prompt manner in which it eradicates
all diseased matter from the blood and glandular sys
tem.
InJ.-dl cutaneous diseases it acts like a charm nnd in
such diseases as scald Head, salt Rheum, and Skin Dis
eases of every kind, it is without au equal in its curative
effects.
Iu tiie combination there are remedies that act direct
ly on the Liverand Kidneys, aud therefore it proposes
to relieve these organs when in a torpid or inactive
state. In relieving these and other organs, and being a
purifier of the blood, it claims to be a cure for that loath
some disease, Scrofula.
Tiie Alterative is put up in joint bottles. Ae-
compunyiug each bottle is a pamphlet setting forth tliena-
ture and character of the several diseases for which it
proposes to be a cure.
All agents and others who have the Alterative for
sale are supplied with these pamphlets for distribution
Ask for one and read it.
This medicine has been extensively used by many

IMPROVED COTTON!
DICKSON’S SELECT COTTON.
I have selected and improved this cotton until I
have succeeded in raising a stalk with 469 bolls
only 5 feet'high.
CTLTIV.ITIOY OF lOTTOY.
T he land should be broken fine and deep before
planting, and if planting on high land it
should not be planted on beds, the land should be
kept as level in the cultivation between the rows
as possible to prevent the cotton from shading in
case of dronght.
If planted on land inclined to be wet, or on bot
tom laud it should be planted on beds as high as
possible, and the middle furrow should be kept
open to drain off the surplus water, so that the beds
may hare warmth and dryness, so essential to the
cotton plant. In a short climate for cotton it should
be planted on beds as high as Potatoe ridges, and
kept so in the cultivation by keeping the middle
furrow well open, which will increase the warmth
of the land fully one degree, causing it to mature
earlier. The land should be plowed as shallow as
possible, with sweeps set very skiming to prevent
the cotton from making too much weed, and shed
ding its first fruit, which should be secured if pos
sible.
In all light, loose and sandy soils, cotton should
be. cultivated with sweeps set very skiming or
light harrows, stiring the ground as shallow as
possible, but frequently as tho breaking of the
young roots or feeders is almost certain to cause
the cotton to shed a portion otits first fruit, which
ought to be secured to mature a good crop before
eaily frost.’ Stiff lands should be plowed once
only, after planting, aud then cultivated as above
directed. This variety of cotton must be topped.
On thin and unmanured upland, it should be
topped by the 20th July—manured upland the 1st
of August, and rich bottom about the 10th August,
as too early topping of bottom land will cause it to
sucker too ranch. If strong land it puts outside
branches at the ground which ought to be topped
also. This cotton should be left ene-fourth thick
er in the drillkhan other cotton, and the rows a lit
tle closer.

UPON AS ENTIRELY SEW PRINCIPLE
i TK1LY MO.VDEKITL DEVELOPMENT,
Which astonished the scientific at Wash
ington, and all who have seen it since, and
will ever remain a monument of mechani
cal genius to astonish the world. It is
surpassingly beautiful, perfectly simple,
effective and durable. No complicated ma
chinery—no getting out of order. Any
body can use it, aud everybody will have
it. Nothing can be more simple for a
Sewing Machine- We dispense with all
that rattletrap ofthe complicated machine
ry, so called, such as Looper, Hook, Spring,
and Cam, which constitute more than two-
thirds of the complicated machinery of ev
ery other Sewing Machine. To supersede
it is impossible; it will do as good work,
and sew as fast, as any other machine, not
excepting the high cost Machines.
1st. It is more simple, and easier kept
in order, than any other machine.
2d. It makes a seam that will not rip,
though every third stitch be cut.
3J. Any kind of thread or silk can be
used, and that, too, from the original spool,
without tiie necessity of re winding.
4th. The scam is as elastic as the most
elastic fabric, so that it is free from all lia
bility to break in washing, ironing, or other
wise.
5th. The stitch made by this Machine
is more beautiful than any other made,
either by hand or machine.
The general appearance of the Machine
is beautiful beyond description, being em
bellished with landscapes, flowers, ar.d
gold, which render it an ornament of rare
beauty for the parlor. The first premium
of medal was awarded for this Machine at
the New York State Fair, held at Buffalo,
Oct. 9th, 1857, over all other high cost Ma
chines, for a Family Sewing Machine.
Any person can learn to use them in an
hour’s time, by following the Directions
which accompany each Machine. They
make less noise than any Machine manu
factured, which makes them very popular
in every family. They will run many
years without a single repair. A child of
twelve years can learn to work one suc
cessfully, as its simplicity cannot bat be
comprehended. Orders by Express or Mail
respectfully solicited and promptly attend
ed to. Call and examine for yourselves.
