The SEWING MACHINE. The editor of the Fay

describes it s. have the sewing machine at
Mr.. Bars shop. 1t is simple little concern, that
might be put into a good sized hat. There is some
outside gear however, that makes it necessary to have
it upon table of about two feet square. 1t is NOV
ed By treade, which operates springs of wire.
The needle works perpendiculary. The mode of
making the stitch is not easily understood by look
er From what | saw of the sewing, | am favor
ably impressed with ii, for this Every stitch,
instead of taking hold Of the cloth, is entirely de-
pendent upon single thread. The seam is held to-
gether by thread and not by the cloth. There is
single thread that along the seam and the stitch
es made by the needle, instead of catching the
cloth, catch the thread. This thread may be cut
at any point and drawn outI to the length of an
ordinary needle full and then the seam for this whole
length comes apart just if there had been sew

SPuNK. This is getting to be very popular word
quite as much as that good old English word.
Bamboozle, which Senator Benton sanctioned last
season. The necessity which some people feel of
!" showing their spunk, when trif1ing annoyances
cross them, is productive of vast amount of heart
burning, pickering and spleen.
Many quarrel has risen in early life and cast its
shade OF bitterness and hatred, the grave
mistake on one part and determination to show
spunk " on the other.
81 will let you know I've got some spunk !'' said
dunned landlord to his creditor, one day, on ac-
knowledglng the receipt of dun. How did he do
ite He cursed, raved, swore and black guarded, paid
his BILL and then to spite his impatient creditor went
to another house to buy his liquor, and paid more
money for poorer goods. This was g showing
spunk to proper or popul1r way.
Merchants sometimes get severely tried by the
thoughtessness or heartlessness of customers some
of them sacrifice their personal interest, their dignity
of character, their temper and peace of mind for
next twenty.four hours, merely to show their spunk
Because their customers are reckless undecided,
heartess. they will degrade themselves sn low
er level by displaying spleen and fretfu reproach.
Farmers often go to law on disputed landmarks,
merely to s. show their spunk.'' and though neither
may be quite right, and though the dispute may be
settled by disinterested party for fifty cents, and
though the amount in dispute be not five dollars,
they will sometimes spend $500 each in law and
neither get thing but beggardy for the trouble This
last is not very rare case.
Many individuals, wishing to show the world that
they are not to be trod upon," willingly show that
they are unit eve TO tread upon owing their hav-
ing so mean spirit of {" spunk."
So We have seen married people pass years in con-
tinual recriminaon and antagonisnl, merely because
both were q" spunky, and neither would yield jot.
Their home perfect hell and their children grew
up in strife. Filtration and imprudence her part,
and vice and Prof1igacy on his part succeeded the
rational happiness OF conuga life, and the very prime
of life was changed to long and tedious interval OF
discordant existence-and all this because each want
ed to show their "spunk!'
Spunky people may depend upon it that the only
proper way show their spunk is to war with inces
activity against all bitterness, hatred, peevish-
ness ndecorum, discourteous language, and undigni-
fed demeanor in every possible shape, and by DO
ing they will find that gentle words will come cheap
and pay better than any other, and that peace
of mind, worth more than all ese is the consequence
of being " real gentlemen and ladies'

EXTENT OF THE OYSTER TRADE. Mr.. Wise sta
ted in the course of his speech Monday last, that
single firm in Baltimore had amassed during the
last ten years fortune of $250OOO, by simply
porting oysters the Western States-all of which
were obtained at the oyster banks of the Eastern
shore of Virginia, and transported over the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad to Cumberland, and thence to the
Ohio. river in stages. This firm paid to the Railroad
Company in one year for transporting oysters alone

a continuous railway improvement. and renewed en-
ergy and vigor would be infused at once into all the
industrial pursuits of the State.
